FA Cup weekends mean so much to the EPL Talk podcast. They give a great chance to look at the situation from a completely different angle. Conclusion? Yeh, playing lower division teams is harder than the TV says it is. AVB should be angry. 'Arry got away with it. Kristan tells a lovely story about Demba Ba, whilst Matt looks at Leeds and Warnock. Hmmm. Both in precarious positions, but for very different reasons. The same could be said for our teams in the EPL, Arsenal look shattered whilst Liverpool don't know what to do with themselves now they did well…even Gus Poyet seemed happy with them winning. EPL sides were changeable this weekend with mixed set of results. What did you think of your side's performance?

The Champions League is back! With a BANG! AC Milan demolished Arsenal 4 – 0. In the pod today? Well, is it really all that bad to be beaten by the Italian Champions? A new team against another rebuilding side. Besides, 4 – 0 is just a bad day at the office, but if you have to many bad days at the office…well…you know what happens. Anyway, in between all of the EPL action the SPL is suffering, Kartik joins the pod for one section to dissect the coming clashes in the Europa League and the fun of non-UCL competition. What can be achieved when the pressure is off? Along with that, the FA Cup have 9 EPL teams still in there. Could it be an all EPL round of eight or will someone upset the applecart? With an easy route into Europe, the teams competing for fourth will have to look at their priorities and act fast to book their place next season. Liverpool lead the queue. Don't they?

If happiness is valuable then Liverpool must be saving theirs up for a rainy day… Kenny Dalglish, Luis Suarez and the Anfield collective doing their best to share as much depression around the league as possible. Disappointing for a set of supporters who seemed ready to move on after realising their own ridiculous situation. But as it happens, Patrice Evra is no longer the one stuck between a rock and hard place. KD is…and this rock might be hard to shift. To assess the fall-out and cave-ins of the weekend, the pod are a collective of four: this week obsessed with Liverpool and how they can move forward after this. Posing more questions than usual and wondering if Liverpool have the ability to attract and spend on a new star. Football was played in many different positions across the league. It has stacked the next few weeks up quite well as Arsenal and Spurs vie for top dog position in London, looking back at a disjointed Chelsea. How time changes: Bolton embody that idea, looking up at the promoted lovelies of Norwich and Swansea compete to entertain the fans in their own way. So was football a winner or a loser this weekend?

An incredible week in 'Football News' means that not much has happened on the pitch. Liverpool and Spurs played out a 0 – 0 whilst a cat became the highlight of Twitter on the night. On the news: Fabio gone and Harry should be in, but when and to what end? The pod discusses. The money in the game keeps swirling around as Barcé and Real gain more monetarial ground in the international stakes. Does anyone care? Possibly about as much as we care for Mertesacker and his winter break... Our featured match this week is Manchester United vs. Liverpool. Old Trafford will greet the Anfield Collective with a hostile welcome whilst Kenny swaddles Luis Suarez in praise and ambiguous comments. How will it change what happens on the pitch? Will there be a handshake? Will there be a moment of redemption for either player?

It is Super Bowl weekend! So we respectfully nod at that and move on with the biggest game on US television this weekend. Chelsea faced United at Stamford Bridge, AVB lost out on all three points as United gained the respect of the league by coming back to draw 3–3 at the final whistle. Penalties all around! Arsenal thrashed Blackburn 7 – 1 whilst the rest of the league battled in the snow. It meant that many were frustrated by the standard of the pitch, but the standard of football withheld and we saw some wonderful goals. We also preview Liverpool hosting Spurs on Monday night as the two sides jostle for respect in the league. 4 – 0 at White Heart Lane, Liverpool are billing this as a revenge match whereas Spurs look to stay consistent and show their strength. Suarez stepping in for Liverpool again.

The Transfer Window has now slammed closed. We got excited and decided that it was time for an EPL Talk Special. With no 'huge' names changing hands the pod didn't pour praise on any of these players. It's a good thing, we have a stable season in the Premier League. It may currently be regarded as a good thing. Does the league understand their restraints better now? The pod also look at the midweek games, season changing points were earned by United as City dropped points to Everton: what does that mean for the top four? Will City lose it from here? Equally, Spurs make a good swap with Everton who have traded up and found their new Duncan Ferguson. Kristan reviews a BBC documentary; the IPL have formulated a league roster; White Heart Lane is up for redevelopment, the excitement begins.

When it comes to colours in football red and blue have to be the dominating shades. Especially this weekend, but grey is the subject this week as all of the grey areas in football seem to be expanding. To discuss that, the pod look at the Anfield Rap; London Calling; and Gunner revivals in the FA Cup. But don't let that get you down. Liverpool beat United at Anfield, but the supporting cast stole the show... Also, as the transfer window closes again, the pod find it hard to get excited about any transfer rumours and wonder if Mourinho would come back to England so soon. Carroll might hope he can still get that move out... Of course, we preview all of the games this week and pick out the crunch points with so many ties happening in midweek. Equally looking forward to getting some EPL action back after so much cup chirping.

With so many cups in just one week, the EPL feels like it has been broken up. However, the FA Cup has become somewhat of a figure of fun in the English press, despite attempts to make it as nostalgic as it once was. With Liverpool progressing against City and hosting United this Saturday, the cup seems very relevant to the EPL season. With cups in mind, the pod review the result of Liverpool v. City in the Carling Cup and assess if this will change the trajectory of either club in the coming weeks. This sandwiches all of the latest transfer news. Then, FA Cup previews and the biggest and best points for this weekend. Nostalgia and all. Kartik and Matt dissect Leeds United and their policy on the transfer market; long-term heaven in a short-term hell or pot-luck gone wrong? Leeds United have been in a state of perpetual misery over the past few seasons; even with the promise of the future, Ken Bates is not making for a happy present.

Manchester manage the double over London sides, but have they assured their place at the top of the tree with such assured performances? Both Spurs and Arsenal gave good accounts of themselves, but in very different ways. We assess the angles and angst felt in London whilst Manchester looks forward to another title. Liverpool and Chelsea were also shaken, with poor away performances to opposition that both sides would expect to beat. Is that the problem? The Midlands also experienced an epic derby and Everton garnered a disappointing point. Newcastle were soundly beaten out of London and Sunderland continued their impressive run, so much has changed in just a month.

Super Sunday comes but once/twice/thrice/quaice (delete as applicable) a season. So when it does come around we are all used to being very excited by it. But often it can let you down. Well, not this year – we're all interested in the intricate narrative which weaves itself throughout the season. Slicing through City and United. Two teams challenging for the top: London clubs. Spurs and Arsenal. They are the pretenders to the Champion's throne as Manchester looks to retain it, as long as they can annoy the neighbours. Well, it is possible that parties in both London and Manchester will be happy this weekend if the results go the right way. Of course we also review the latest transfer rumours; look at City in the league and QPR in the Cup. Beckham hits Google+ and 'Britain' in the Olympics. The rest of the league is also reviewed and renewed. The league needs there to be wins in the top of the table clashes, so who do you think should win and why?
