Big wins and big narratives in the Premier League
It’s early days, but following on from last weekend, it felt like the balance shifted in the Premier League this match day. Narratives were flipped and results seemed more crucial, heading into the men’s international break.Musa and Ryan begin at Stamford Bridge, where Chelsea’s win over Liverpool highlighted a few issues that Arne Slot has trying to figure out all season (04:26). Arsenal’s win at home to West Ham saw them go top (19:37), with the noise from a fortnight ago fully subsiding. Elsewhere (32:31), Everton ended Palace’s unbeaten run, Manchester United kept it calm, Bournemouth continue to impress and much more in the Premier League. Finally, there’s a quick shout out for La Liga, the Bundesliga, Serie A and more (40:01).Tickets are available for our live show at the Southbank Centre in London on December 4th and are on sale here.For more podcasts each week, ad-free and in full, plus access to the Stadio Social Club and much more, become a Stadio member by going to patreon.com/stadio.
