268 | Friendly Rivals

Talking Tactics discuss Manchester United beating Norwich City with a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick. Why Cristiano is both solution, and cause of the problem. Is Liverpool v Manchester City the best rivalry in English football, or does some combination of Ferguson's Man United, Wenger's Arsenal, and Mourinho's Chelsea have a better case; and do you need animosity to be rivals? Real Madrid keep winning from behind, proving a winner's mentality. Benzema's Ballon d'Or credentials are growing. Have Hope wishes he could go on loan. And we take your questions on "bottle genes," Queen Lizzie's teams, and why is football culture so loose with Islamic phrases amongst others. *Taped while watching the second half of Napoli 1-1 Roma.
