  • Liverpool Lose 3-in-a-row | United Back to Winning Ways | Arsenal Rise to the Top

    Liverpool Lose 3-in-a-row | United Back to Winning Ways | Arsenal Rise to the Top
    Oct 5 2025
    Dharmesh Sheth is joined by Julien Laurens, Jacqui Oatley and The Telegraph’s Jason Burts to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.

    We begin with Chelsea’s last-minute win over Liverpool at the Bridge. Whilst Laurens praises Maresca’s victory and show of emotion, he criticises Liverpool’s lack of control, with a third loss in eight days. Jason believes Liverpool’s winning start to the season was unsustainable and considers it a missed opportunity that they didn’t buy Marc Guehi in the summer.

    Next we look to Man United’s home win over Sunderland; whilst Julien focuses on Amorim’s side’s lack of consistency, was this clean sheet and good performance a sign of things to come?

    We then have The Athletic’s Megan Feringa on the pod to talk WSL; how far can Manchester United go this season? And with Arsenal dropping seven points already in the WSL, after bringing in Olivia Smith, why is it they can’t get over the line in the league in the same way the likes of Chelsea are able to?

    We also look at Arsenal’s win against West Ham, taking them to the top of the Premier League and Julien believes the Gunners’ control gave Nuno’s side no chance of winning the game.

    Finally, a gritty win for Tottenham against Leeds showed Thomas Frank’s ability to bring a different side to Spurs; Jason believes Frank can get them back in to the top four this season.

    Running Order:

    3mins – Liverpool Lose 3-in-a-row
    20mins – United Back to Winning Ways
    38mins – Megan Feringa on WSL

  • Another Defeat for Man Utd | Last-Minute Liverpool Loss | Do Arsenal Have the Best Squad in the League?

    Another Defeat for Man Utd | Last-Minute Liverpool Loss | Do Arsenal Have the Best Squad in the League?
    Sep 28 2025
    Dharmesh Sheth is joined by The Daily Mail’s Dominic King, The Independent’s Miguel Delaney and The Times’ Martin Samuel to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.

    We begin with Man United’s 3-1 defeat at Brentford. Miguel believes Keith Andrews had Amorim’s number and criticises a lack of consistency but is Martin harsh to consider Man United the worst run club in football? Dominic suggests Man United would want to be run more like Brentford.

    Next we focus on Liverpool, who got a taste of their last-minute-winner medicine against Crystal Palace, losing in extra time by an Eddie Nketiah goal. Will defensive frailties be an issue for Liverpool as the season unfolds?

    We then move to Arsenal, and Dominic considers Arteta’s side to have the best squad in the league, with depth in every position, but they need take advantage of title-rival slip ups; something they were unable to capitalise on last year.

    We also look at Europe’s successful Ryder Cup weekend. Dominic calls it a ‘demolition’ and praises Fleetwood and Rose’s second day performance.

    Finally, The Times’ Charlotte Duncker joins us on the pod to chat more about Amorim’s system and future at Man United, and Ange’s difficult start at Nottingham Forest.

    Running Order:
    3mins - Man United’s Defeat at Brentford

  • Man United’s chaotic win over Chelsea | Potter Under Pressure | Liverpool Merseyside Win

    Man United’s chaotic win over Chelsea | Potter Under Pressure | Liverpool Merseyside Win
    Sep 21 2025
    Dharmesh Sheth is joined by ESPN’s Mark Ogden, The Mail’s Craig Hope and The Mirror’s John Cross to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.

    We begin with Man United’s chaotic home win against Chelsea. Craig believes United will always have enough quality to keep bad managers in good jobs. But will this win be a turning point in their season?

    Next we look at Graham Potter, who’s feeling the pressure as West Ham were booed off, after a loss at home to Crystal Palace. Mark believes Potter tries to play an attractive style of football, but is there any way back for him from here?

    We also look at the difficult situation at Wolves, and whilst Vitor Pereira is struggling, Craig argues that Wolves have the right man in the role, and losing Cunha and Ait-Nouri was always going to be tough.

    Elsewhere, we look at Arsenal v Man City; John thinks Liverpool are setting such a relentless standard, that already in the season we have must-win games for the teams looking to challenge.

    We then move to Liverpool’s Merseyside derby win. Mark highlights Liverpool’s fire power but there’s also a running theme of throwing away leads this season.

    Finally, The Athletic’s Charlotte Harpur comes on to the pod to talk of the sad news of Liverpool FC Women’s manager Matt Beard’s passing. Charlotte talks of Matt’s legacy both on and off the pitch, including consecutive WSL wins and Matt's empathetic character.

  • Arsenal Impress with Squad Depth | Woltemade’s Electric Debut | Frank’s Flying Start

    Arsenal Impress with Squad Depth | Woltemade’s Electric Debut | Frank’s Flying Start
    Sep 14 2025
    Dharmesh Sheth is joined by The Independent’s Miguel Delaney, The Times’ Charlotte Duncker and The Daily Mail’s Riath Al-Samarrai.

    We begin with Arsenal’s convincing win over Forest at the Emirates; was this performance the sign of things to come? Miguel emphasises Arteta’s impressive squad depth, and Riath praises Gyokeres, with three goals in his first four league games.

    Next we look at Newcastle’s new signing Nick Woltemade, who helped Eddie Howe’s side to a win against Wolves on his debut. Riath believes Woltemade will bring the best out of the player’s around him.

    We then have The Athletic’s James Pearce on to the pod, highlighting Isak’s arrival at Liverpool as an exciting option for more rotation in Arne Slot’s side this year.

    Elsewhere, we look at Tottenham’s thrashing of West Ham; Riath comments on Thomas Frank’s fantastic start to the season and Miguel talks of Frank’s ability to adapt tactics and use pragmaticism effectively.

    Finally, we look at the Manchester Derby; Charlotte mentions that whilst Pep hasn’t had the best start, Ruben Amorim’s problems are significantly worse. The Athletic’s Carl Anker joins us to talk Amorim’s tactics and believes this game may suit his style a little more.

  • England’s Struggle to Entertain | Levy Shock Spurs Exit | WSL Favourites & Signings

    England’s Struggle to Entertain | Levy Shock Spurs Exit | WSL Favourites & Signings
    Sep 7 2025
    Vicky Gomersall is joined by The Telegraph’s Jason Burt, The Sunday Times’ Jonathan Northcroft and sports broadcaster Jacqui Oatley to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.

    We begin with England’s struggle to entertain against Andorra. Jonathan praises Anderson and Madueke but Jacqui questions whether England are on track, as fans need to believe they can win, ahead of the World Cup next year.

    Next to Daniel Levy’s Spurs exit. Jonathan talks of the ex-Tottenham Chairman’s longevity, but will Levy’s twenty-four-year stint in charge be seen as a success, with an ultimate failure to reach the glory of the bigger trophies?

    Then we’re joined by The Athletic’s Megan Feringa to talk WSL; £1m signing Alyssa Thompson joins an already-strong Chelsea side, favourites to become champions again. And Megan praises Arsenal’s display against London City, particularly Olivia Smith’s long-range goal to help Renee Slegers’ side make a winning start to the season

    Finally, back to England, and has Tuchel underestimated his job? Jonathan thinks Tuchel has learnt from his first few games in charge, understanding you can’t overcomplicate the tactical side of international football, with the lack of time to practice with his players.

    Amorim’s Struggle | Jackson Transfer U-Turn | Wissa forces Newcastle move
    Aug 31 2025
    Dharmesh Sheth is joined by The Times’ Alyson Rudd, The Sun’s Charlie Wyatt and Football Journalist Julien Laurens to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.

    We begin with Man United, and Alyson isn’t impressed at how challenging Amorim’s side found it at home to Burnley. Charlie considers the situation a shambles and Julien believes Amorim doesn’t have the personality to succeed.

    Next to Nicolas Jackson, who looked to be getting a dream move to Bayern Munich, until Liam Delap got injured. David Ornstein comes on to the pod and considers whether Chelsea will sign another striker, or use Jackson as their striker this season.

    Then to talk last minute transfer news, and Keith Downie reports on Yoane Wissa’s statement to force Newcastle move. Julien thinks the price tag is a big ask from Brentford and Charlie questions Wissa’s professionalism.

    Later in the pod, we return to Manchester United and we're joined by Samuel Luckhurst from the Manchester Evening News, who fills us in on the latest situation with Ruben Amorim. Sam thinks Amorim may have underestimated the size of the job at Man United but believes he will still be in charge for the Manchester derby.

    Finally, we look at the VAR controversy robbing teenager Josh King of the opening goal in the West London derby against Chelsea. Alyson is stern in her view that there was no foul and that the decision goes against the spirit of VAR

    Is it Arsenal’s year? | Nuno vs Marinakis | Spurs win at City
    Aug 24 2025
    Dharmesh Sheth is joined by The Mirror’s John Cross, ESPN’s Mark Ogden and The Sunday Times’ Jonathan Northcroft to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.

    We begin by looking at Arsenal’s 5-0 win hosting Leeds. Jonathan talks of a bouncing mood in the Emirates unveiling Eze. Will this finally be Arsenal’s year?

    Next to Nuno Espirito Santo’s spat with Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis; will Nuno walk?

    Elsewhere, to Spurs’ impressive victory at Man City. Mark suggests whatever the manager, Spurs win at the Eithad! John mentions he loves Pep, but questions whether he can rebuild City.

    Then to West Ham, and is Graham Potter’s time ticking with the Hammers? John believes Potter inherited a poor squad but after twenty-one games, West Ham have won only five and lost eleven, so the pressure is inevitably on.

    Finally, we look at Jonathan’s piece on how players get their desired move, and subsequently look at the continuing Isak saga; John argues Newcastle can’t show a sign of weakness and let him go.

    Running Order:
    8mins Is it Arsenal’s year?

    Resurgent Man City | Frank's Flying Start | Sunderland Back With A Bang
    Aug 17 2025
    Dharmesh Sheth is joined by The Independent’s Miguel Delaney, The Times’ Charlotte Duncker and The Guardian’s Jonathan Liew to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.

    We begin talking transfers, and whilst Eberechi Eze looks likely to be on his way to Tottenham, the Alexander Isak saga continues as Newcastle look for necessary replacements.

    Next we discuss David De Gea’s possible return to Old Trafford. Whilst Charlotte considers De Gea a better shot-stopper than Onana, but still believes it to be an unlikely move.

    Elsewhere, we discuss the racist incident against Antoine Semenyo. Miguel talks about the importance of education outside of just football, and Charlotte praises how quickly it was dealt with.

    We also praise Man City’s resurgent start to the new season; Pep’s rebuild looks impressive after their opening game, but are City back?

    Then, The Sunday Times' Jonathan Northcroft speaks with us on it being time for Mikel Arteta to win the Premier League. Is it now or never for Arteta at Arsenal? Also, is time running out for rivals Man United? Plus, we discuss Thomas Frank’s flying start to the new season, and a reignited Richarlison spark. Is top five asking for too much for Tottenham this season?

    Finally, Sunderland are back with a bang! A 3-0 win was a perfect return to the Premier League, but we consider their opponents West Ham’s transfers and whether Graham Potter is suited to the Hammers’ system.

    3min Eze to Tottenham
    11mins Isak Saga
    24mins De Gea possible United Return
