Alan Shearer 0:00
Coming up on today's show, are they imploding before our very eyes? For the first time, there's a doubt in my mind they'll actually go and win the title now. It would really worry me if I was an Arsenal fan and what I've seen yesterday in terms of just everything about their performance was nervous. I wonder what Pep's thinking.
Gary Lineker 0:17
He knows it's on. He's actually on. The treble is actually on. But if you said you need to put your life on the line, I'd probably now go City.

What mentality does Arsenal need to win the Premier League?

Gary Lineker 0:37
Hello and welcome to The Rest Is Football with Micah Richards and me, Gary Lineker. Alan, I've already recorded the second half with Alan earlier on. He's another one of his mates' birthday parties, Micah.
Micah Richards 0:50
He's a socialite, isn't he?
Gary Lineker 0:52
Yeah, he is.
Micah Richards 0:52
Honestly, he's always... If it's not golf, it's someone's birthday. If it's not someone's birthday, he's got a dinner. If it's not a dinner, he's got some sort of ball. If it's not a ball, he's pissed. Do you know what I mean? I don't know do you think we should suspend him give him a two game suspension a two pod suspension he didn't turn up yesterday as well to the big grand beautiful opening at Netflix that they put on a fantastic spread for us where was he
Gary Lineker 1:25
Well, he was doing much of the day, I think, in his defense. He was working. But it was fun, wasn't it?

How does Manchester City's experience impact their title race?

Gary Lineker 1:31
We went to see the Tyson Fury fight and up Connor Benn as well. And ringside, ooh, when they hit, I mean, there's a difference when you ringside, isn't there? You hear that thud of a punch for those big boys.
Micah Richards 1:44
Honestly, that experience is one of the best of my life. For some reason, and I don't know why, when they say you're going to boxing, I thought it was going to be inside. And I don't know why. It was freezing.
Gary Lineker 1:57
Hang on a minute, Michael. Where was it? Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. And you thought it was going to be inside?
Micah Richards 2:03
I was still thinking about it. of mind i don't know why i don't know if it was going to be covered or or something so i thought because you know you dress sense don't you you can you can be warm or you can try to look cool and i went down the trying to look cool route you know which you did you did Denim shirt on and all that. But you dressed perfectly. You had a little jumper and jacket looking so smart. And I went for style over substance, didn't I?
Gary Lineker 2:30
There is a way of doing both. There is a way of doing both. You can just look at the weather forecast, realise it's out. Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, it's a football ground. Might be outside. I don't know. But, you know, you need warmth. You need energy. You need Fuse. This episode is powered by Fuse Energy. Before we kick off, a quick pre-match warm-up from Fuse. One question, four options, and two contestants. Today's a little question for you, lads. Which goalkeeper has the most clean sheets in Champions League history? Is it A, Iker Casillas? B, Gianluigi Buffon? C, Manuel Neuer? Or D, Edwin van der Sar?
Alan Shearer 3:23
Manuel Neuer for me.
Gary Lineker 3:25
You know what? I'm going to be different. I'm going to go Buffon. You're going to go Buffon? Yeah. Well, Micah, that was not correct. The answer was one. Manuel Neuer. Yes. Role play. Yes.

And I mean, Arsenal, are they imploding before our very eyes?
Micah Richards 4:14
I would say no. because of the Sporting Lisbon result. So they didn't, we had this conversation, and I feel like I repeat myself all the time. Arsenal are not creating enough chances. That has been their problem for a while. And this is not reactionary. This is what we've been talking about, I would say for months now. Set pieces have been getting them over the line. And then when they get a set piece, they grow into the game, they have confidence. That is one aspect of it. And I think you posed a question to me, is that going to be enough?
