Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE.

In this episode, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright react to a turbulent period at Manchester United. Following the departure of Ruben Amorim, the team look back on his time at the club and discuss what ultimately led to his exit.

Attention then turns to Michael Carrick, who has stepped in on an interim basis. Is this the right appointment for United, and could Carrick earn the role permanently if results go his way, or do the club need to look elsewhere in a chaotic manager market?

There’s also movement elsewhere, with Chelsea making a change as Enzo Maresca departs and Liam Rosenior comes in. Is this a gamble for the club, and how risky is handing out long term contracts in the modern game?

Super 6 returns as the team make their predictions, before we finish with one of the stories of the season. Macclesfield pull off a stunning FA Cup upset against Crystal Palace, and manager John Rooney joins us to reflect on a famous night and one of the biggest shocks in the competition’s history.

There’s also discussion around the Mo Salah situation as Jamie reflects on his comments and what the future may hold for the Egyptian forward.

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE.

In this episode, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Jill Scott, Roy Keane and Ian Wright are joined by Jordi Cruyff for an honest and insightful look at his life in football and beyond.

We begin with Jordi’s early playing career, how he first fell in love with the game and the influence of his father, Johan. He talks us through his journey in the Barcelona academy and his move to Manchester United, where he struck up a close friendship with Eric Cantona during a memorable spell at Old Trafford.

The team then reflect on Johan Cruyff’s remarkable legacy. As one of the most influential figures the sport has ever seen, what was he like away from the pitch, and what shaped his genius both as a player and as a manager?

The conversation moves to Jordi’s role as Sporting Director at Barcelona during the post-Messi era. With financial restrictions and huge expectations on the club, he opens up on the challenges he faced and what he learned during one of the most difficult periods in Barça’s recent history.

To finish, Jordi shares the powerful story of his daughter Danae’s battle with cancer. Danae joins us on the show to talk about her diagnosis and recovery, and we are all incredibly proud to see her doing so well and speaking so openly about her journey.

Welcome back to another episode of Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE.

This week the full squad return as Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Jill Scott, Roy Keane and Ian Wright dive into the biggest stories in sport.

We start with Gary’s recent trip to the F1, where he spent time behind the scenes with the Mercedes team. He shares what he learned from the experience and, with the title going down to the final race, who will be crowned champion in Abu Dhabi?

Wrighty then reflects on the moment Laura Woods collapsed while the pair were working on punditry duty for the Lionesses. Everyone at The Overlap wishes Laura the very best and we’re all relieved to hear she is recovering well.

The focus then turns to a chaotic week in football, with several teams battling for consistency. Spurs come under the spotlight as Thomas Frank faces early questions after a tough start to life in north London.

The group also debate whether the standard of Premier League managers is dropping year by year, especially after the recent departures of some of the league’s biggest names. Super 6 returns too, with predictions ahead of a packed Premier League weekend.

We take a look at the Championship as Frank Lampard’s Coventry continue their charge towards promotion, and later, Roy and Gary revisit an on-pitch clash they had during their Manchester United days. The team also react to Theo Walcott’s comments about players checking their phones at half time.

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE.

This week, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Wayne Rooney, Roy Keane and Ian Wright are joined by one of the Premier League’s greatest ever full backs, Ashley Cole, for a brilliant episode full of big reveals and funny moments.

We start by looking back at Ashley’s early days at Arsenal and how he went from a young prospect at Highbury to one of the best full backs we have ever seen. He talks about the ups and downs, the moments that shaped him and how a loan spell at Crystal Palace changed everything.

The conversation then turns to coaching. Ashley talks about the work he has already done alongside Wayne and with England, and why he sees himself stepping into management sooner rather than later.

We also revisit his incredible playing career, from the Invincibles and working under Arsene Wenger to joining Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea team. Ash speaks openly about leaving Arsenal for Chelsea, one of the most talked about moves English football has ever seen, and the reaction that followed in the media and beyond.

To finish, the table look back at England’s golden generation. Why didn’t that group achieve what many expected and was that England’s best chance of winning something major?

Where do you see Ashley Cole managing in the future?
