On today’s Football Weekly, AC Jimbo is joined by Barry Glendenning, Iain Macintosh and John Ashdown to pour over the best and worst bits of the weekend in the Premier League.

We begin with table-toppers Liverpool, who hit Watford for six, and had to go some distance to out-perform Chelsea after they put five past Everton. Can Klopp and Conte’s teams - minus European football - see it through to the end?

Next, we marvel at Sunderland’s first win of the season - coincidentally, with David Moyes banned from the touchline - while Manchester United also seemed to do quite well sans Mou. Oh, and there was an excellent North London derby, too.

Finally, because it’s the beginning of the international break, we head off-piste to catch up with the remarkable story of Dundalk - courtesy of Cork City fan Alan Smith - and also East Kilbride. And what’s this - we even have time to catch up on the first round of the FA Cup.
