Cucurella Best Defender In The Premier League? | Slot Out Again | What Could Arsenal Achieve This Season?
This week we roped in Ben Bowman while Dan swans off to Strasbourg, and started with the obvious question, what is actually happening at Liverpool. We go through Arne Slot’s brutal run, Curtis Jones’ honesty, the Isak signing, the lack of a centre half and whether the players have stopped running for the manager. From there we get into Cucurella putting Yamal “in his pocket”, what Sanchez’s comments say about the level of the Premier League, and why Arsenal are scaring the life out of us in both the league and Europe. There is Spurs chat too, from PSG away and Sarr’s minutes to the “top six” debate, Marco Silva, the infamous North London derby box, and a few listener questions to finish.

Arsenal Flying | Liverpool Flailing | Frank Out?
In this one we try to process a pretty grim week: Spurs getting slapped in the derby , Arsenal looking like they might actually walk the league and Chelsea quietly sneaking into the title chat. We get into Liverpool’s weird collapse, Forest’s revival under Dyche, why Eze clearly made the right call, and why long ball merchants are suddenly fashionable again. There is a mini Danny Baker rant, Steve Nash randomly popping into the DMs, a bit of Radiohead love, and a short Bazball therapy session with the Aussies giving it to us in the comments. As ever, we read out your messages, take our medicine and try not to completely lose it.

The North London Derby | Scotland's World Cup Fairytale | Dick Advocaat in Paradise
In this one we try to talk ourselves into some kind of calm before the North London derby, chat about Spurs away form under Thomas Frank and how Arsenal have turned into a machine. We get carried away with Scotland’s insane win over Denmark, McTominay’s overhead and Kenny McLean’s halfway line madness, plus Ireland’s and Wales’ big nights and Curacao’s ridiculous World Cup story with Dick Advocaat. Then we get into refs, Clattenburg and Mike Dean, the weird politics of officiating, and finish on listener questions about Palace, banana skin fixtures and why fans just know when a game is going to go wrong.

Is Haaland Already Premier League Greatest? | Troy Parrot And Ireland Bedlam | Tuchel v Bellingham
In this one we start with the calm of the international break and end up in total Irish bedlam, talking Troy Parrott’s last minute winner, what following your country actually feels like, and why football’s best moments are pure chaos rather than controlled perfection. We get into Tuchel vs Bellingham and how the media manufactures beef, John Terry moaning about low blocks, Guardiola’s influence on a more sterile Premier League, Haaland and Kane chasing absurd international records, the never-ending ref discourse and PSR gripes, plus a big plug for the White Teeth Chronicles and some brilliant listener stories and questions.

PFA To Sue The Premier League | The Return Of Ivan Toney | Liverpool Moaners
England chat, WhatsApp group politics and the way Sky and others keep dumbing football talk down into shouty clips. We get into Ivan Toney’s Saudi wages and whether he solves Spurs’ problems, the Premier League’s proposed spending anchor and what it means for soft power clubs and everyone else. There is time for Liverpool writing to PGMOL, fan entitlement, away ticket loyalty schemes, Palace ultras, the Ballers League and some of the very worst fan takes we have heard in years.
