Man United beaten in Copenhagen and Spurs lose to Chelsea - the most chaotic week of the season

Jimbo, Duncan Alexander, Raphael Honigstein and Tom Williams try and wrap their heads around some of the most remarkable games we’ve seen in years.

Man United’s Champions League status hangs by a thread after a 4-3 defeat in Copenhagen, a game that turned on a first-half red for Rashford.

Crazier still was the first defeat of the season for Spurs, whose 9-man high line was eventually exploited by a Chelsea side doing lots of stupid things themselves. But are the Blues getting to grips with what Pochettino wants ahead of the visit of Man City this weekend?

Plus Loftus-Cheek, Jorginho and an in-depth debate on the prawn sandwich.
