ESPN FC · The Football Reporters: Will cautious Arteta cost Arsenal the title? · 27 Jan 2026 podcast

Tottenham are terrible in the Premier League, but they're fourth, fifth right now.

seven changes I mean Inter have been the outlier haven't they but in recent years in terms of getting to a couple of finals but I think we both expect that come to certainly the knockout stage the last 16-8 it'll be Bayern Munich PSG Real Madrid Barcelona and four Premier League sides that seems to be the way it's trended What I've been interested in I mentioned this one on our desk last week that you talk about the strength of

Frankfurt, the Bundesliga, Frankfurt are really struggling.

They've been terrible this year, Frankfurt, in the Champions League.

I've no sympathy with that argument because we all know that Pep's got incredible resources.

He's got a huge squad.

And if you're really that obsessed with winning the Champions League, as he has been and he has done it,

Just use your kids in the Carabao Cup.

Use them in the FA Cup and then take your chance.

And if you get not taken, you get not taken.

But prioritise the bigger trophies.

If you're going to try and win all four, you're going to find it hard because it's hard for that reason.

There's too many games.

But that's why you build a big squad.

We know that, we don't quite know yet, we're beginning to see a little bit in terms of how much of an impact the Club World Cup will have on these teams.

City, Chelsea, Real Madrid, PSG.

We'll still wait to see that one.

But I imagine that Real Madrid and PSG will handle it better than Chelsea and Man City.

well that's why I was so surprised at the strength of the City team in Norway last week at Bode Glimpse you know obviously they lost the game but it's a game that they could afford to lose really why he played Haaland from the start why he played Rodri because these guys need a rest and Haaland had until the Wolves game at the weekend had played so many games these are the guys you need to rest for at the end of the season bear in mind that Haaland had played right from the start of the Club World Cup last summer so

You know, Pep's got to be careful.
