EPLextra episode 10: Wenger vs Mourinho (their teams played too)

By EPLextra / Roar Rookie

6th October, 2014

With an international break looming, the EPL left us plenty to talk about while it takes some time away.

In this week’s episode:

If you thought the NRL grand final was hard hitting, it had nothing on the latest round of Jose Mourinho versus Arsene Wenger.
Some wonderful goals from Manchester United’s big signings up front, but the Red Devils owed the win to the efforts of David de Gea in goal.
The remaining games of the round covered by the panel.
Article of the week – Allen Black’s How I learned to stop worrying and embrace football crapitalism.
6 degrees of Mario Balotelli: To welcome back Isik we link a great Turkish player to the mercurial Italian.
Look out for our A-League focus in next week’s episode as the domestic game takes centre stage.

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. Add your comment below using the template (see comments section for an example):
The good: The best player/ team performance of the round.
The bad: The worst performance of the weekend.
The ugly: Something from the weekend’s games that stood out.

Thanks bemused. Over the last couple of weeks I have found myself asking the same question as you about Pardew. As we discussed in the podcast, it might just be that Newcastle's season has to get worse before something happens. Marko

For this week: THE GOOD: David de Gea's performance in goal for Manchester United against an Everton team which threw everything at him. THE BAD: Mourinho and Wenger on the sideline. The talking points should be about what happens on the field rather than what two grown men who should know better do off it. The UGLY: Very odd to see Harry Redknapp answer his phone mid-game and then pass it to his assistant Kevin Bond. Maybe they were phoning a friend to get an answer QPR's current woes.
