Scholes vs Martinez, Rice Ballon d’Or Talk & Rory’s Rosenior Rage | The Overlap Fan Debate

Welcome back to The Fan Debate, brought to you by Sky Bet.

We start with the biggest talking point as Paul Scholes is challenged on his criticism of Lisandro Martínez, sparking a heated debate about pundit responsibility and whether players are judged too harshly.

The focus then shifts to the title race as Arsenal continue to fly and Manchester City look to close the gap. Arsenal fan Matt backs his side’s chances and makes the case for Declan Rice as a Ballon d’Or contender, while questions are also asked about Pep Guardiola and City’s tough January.

We also look at Manchester United, where Michael Carrick is in the spotlight, and debate whether he could earn a permanent role, plus where Bruno Fernandes ranks among the club’s greats.

Elsewhere, managerial pressure builds across the league with Chelsea, Spurs, Palace and West Ham all under discussion as fans give their views.
