Episode notes

Matt Davies-Adams is in the hot seat for the first Totally Football Show of 2022, alongside Daniel Storey, Dan Bardell and Sasha Goryunov.

Most of the panel were at Stamford Bridge to see Chelsea and Liverpool in a pulsating draw that led both sets of players to believe the title race was over.

Romelu Lukaku wasn’t at Stamford Bridge. We ask what he was trying to achieve with his interview criticising Thomas Tuchel’s tactics.

Man City win at Arsenal in another hugely eventful clash. Does the reaction towards the refereeing decisions again show how officials are mistreated in this country?

Brighton are the envy of most teams in the country right now as they win at Goodison and supporting Everton continues to be a character-building experience.

Plus we praise Brentford’s strength in depth and make some bold predictions for 2022.
