On this episode of The Final Third, we unpack a weekend where the narratives wrote themselves. Manchester United’s disintegration suffered a miserable home defeat to Everton, while Chelsea defied logic—and Barcelona—with a 3–0 masterclass at the Bridge. Arsenal, in perhaps their most coherent European display in years, eased past Bayern with a clinical 3–1.
In the domestic dust-ups, Liverpool found themselves thoroughly outclassed by Nottingham Forest at Anfield—yes, really—while Newcastle proved the existential riddle Manchester City still haven’t solved. Arsenal continued their surge with a four-goal statement against a Spurs side that looked really bad and bereft of ideas, promising.
Looking ahead, we ask whether Everton can compound Newcastle’s travel sickness, if West Ham might drag Liverpool into further introspection, and whether Chelsea versus Arsenal might finally be more than a mood piece.
