Villa dent title hopes, how Arsenal respond is key

James McNicholas and Art de Roché join Ian Stone to reflect on Arsenal's disappointing home defeat to Unai Emery's Aston Villa. The Gunners failed to capitalise on Crystal Palace's victory at Anfield, meaning it's Manchester who lead the way with a 2 point gap at the top. The panel discuss whether Mikel Arteta's side have outgrown Zinchenko, and if moving Havertz into midfield was a mistake. With Bayern Munich up next in the Champions League, and the tie in the balance, this could be a season defining week - how will Arsenal respond? Plus, a thrashing in the WSL as Arsenal beat Bristol City 5-0, and Bundesliga champion, Granit Xhaka. Produced by Jay Beale. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
