  • World Cup Favourites, England’s Forward Problem & No Room For Bellingham?
    Mar 30 2026
    Could there really be a world where Jude Bellingham doesn’t start for England at the World Cup this summer? With Thomas Tuchel favouring Morgan Rogers in the number 10 role so far, is Bellingham facing a place on the bench? There are also big questions up front. Who steps in as backup to Harry Kane? Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Dominic Solanke were both given opportunities against Uruguay but failed to impress, while Ollie Watkins hasn’t quite hit top form this season. Does this point to a wider decline in traditional number nines in the English game? Plus, Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer and Micah Richards pick their World Cup favourites and assess where England really stand among the contenders. The Rest Is Football is powered by Fuse Energy.

  • James Milner: Record Breaker
    Mar 27 2026
    What was it really like playing under Jürgen Klopp during that era-defining rivalry between Liverpool and Manchester City? What kind of manager was he behind the scenes? How difficult was it to keep his place at Manchester City when big-money signings in his position arrived summer after summer? What were Alan Shearer and Micah Richards really like as teammates? Gary is joined by the most capped Premier League player ever, James Milner. From becoming the league’s youngest-ever goalscorer at the time to still playing in the Premier League in his 40s, he shares memories of playing alongside David Silva at Manchester City, his special bond with close friend Diogo Jota, and the mentality that kept him at the elite level for decades.

  • Trent Benched But Makes Decisive Impact In Madrid Derby
    Mar 24 2026
    Trent Alexander-Arnold was dropped for the Madrid derby after reportedly being late for training, but he came off the bench to assist Vinicius Jr's winner and go some way to again proving his doubters wrong just a few days after he wasn't named in Thomas Tuchel's 35-man England squad. Gary and Alex react to a brilliant game in the Bernabeu as Vini Jr's brace and another goal from Fede Valverde secured a crucial 3-2 victory. Watch out for another golazo from Atletico's Nahuel Molina. Barcelona were below their best in a 1-0 win over Rayo Vallecano, relying on a string of saves from goalkeeper Joan Garcia to hold onto the three points and remain top of La Liga.

What did Hansi Flick do at the break to outwit Eddie Howe? Elsewhere, Liverpool and Arsenal progressed with comfortable wins over Galatasaray and Leverkusen but with Manchester City, Chelsea and Tottenham all being on the end of heavy defeats should we be concerned about the strength of the top English teams or is this just evidence that the European heavyweights save themselves for nights like these?
