    The North London Derby episode! In this episode of the Mecca of Banter Podcast, the boys dive into the frustrating loss at home to Minnesota United. Everything feels a bit "too little too late" from here. Questionable decisions from the manager, both in game and in personnel. While it isn't mathematically impossible, the route to the playoffs is almost completely out of reach. We take a look at the Premier League fixtures of the weekend including Manchester United's 3-0 win over Southampton. Can only play who is in front of you! Liverpool lose at home to Nottingham Forest for the first time in 55 years. Chelsea squeeze past Bournemouth. And the match of the weekend being the NLD, where Arsenal take the 1-0 win over Tottenham. Without key players available from Arsenal, they were able to defend their way to 3 points, with Spurs looking lackluster in the final 3rd. Set pieces continue to be one of the biggest issues for Tottenham. Make sure to check out our socials!
