Pogba’s PFA puzzler and the underwhelming race for 4th

Natalie Sawyer and Gab Marcotti are joined by Oli Kay and Alan Smith after a big midweek in the Premier League. Manchester City played their game in hand at Old Trafford and ran out 2-0 winners in the Manchester derby. Was that their biggest hurdle to clear in the title race? Or will Burnley and their anti-football provide sterner opposition? Paul Pogba is named in the PFA Team of the Year which has incensed many. Do players take the nominations seriously enough or do they just look for different values? Arsenal suffer back to back defeats and continue to have problems in defence but do they have problems in attack on the horizon? And is the race for 4th place something to be excited about? Or is it the battle of mediocre teams in transition? Charlie Scott and Paddy von Behr provide advice ahead of the fantasy football weekend.
