We’ve not even said goodbye to September and we’re already saying goodbye to our first manager this season. Time’s up for Natalia Arroyo at Aston Villa after a thrashing by Tottenham, who are flying high in the table. Is it too early or did Villa need to move on?

Chloe and Rachel discuss that issue and many more, including (of course) Arsenal’s continued lack of attacking intensity. In Chloe’s words, the fire is lit but nothing’s cooking.
