Chelsea’s thrilling fight back, Liverpool go top and Xhaka loses the Arsenal armband

The team reflect on another extraordinary night of Champions League football

Kelly Cates is joined by former Chelsea midfielder Andy Townsend, former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock, our senior football reporter Ian Dennis and commentator John Acres to reflect on another extraordinary night of Champions League football.

Chelsea fought back from 4-1 down to draw 4-4 with Ajax at Stamford Bridge. The team dissect what was a crazy game where Ajax saw two of their defenders sent off in the space of ten seconds and VAR once again was the hot topic after Chelsea were denied a winner.

Liverpool have gone top of their Champions League group after a 2-1 win over Genk at Anfield. The panel debate whether it was a “flat” performance for the Premier League leaders.

Arsenal head coach Unai Emery has confirmed that Granit Xhaka has had the captaincy stripped from him after his reaction to being booed by fans in their 2-2 draw with Crystal Palace over a week ago.

We discuss whether newly appointed captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is the right man for the job and whether there’s any way back for Xhaka at Arsenal.

We also hear from Chelsea boss Frank Lampard and Liverpool’s Jurgen Klopp and Georginio Wijnaldum.

And there’s all the latest ahead of Tottenham and Manchester City’s respective matches in the Champions League on Wednesday night.
