  1. AFCON Carnage, Man United are BACK, Will there be a World Cup?

    3D AGO

    AFCON Carnage, Man United are BACK, Will there be a World Cup?

    One of the most controversial finals of all time capped off this years AFCON as Senegal beat Morocco after a 20 minute walk off, the worst penalty maybe ever, brawls in the stands and on the pitch, the referee being blocked from getting to the VAR monitor and a swarm of ball boys desperately scratching and clawing their way to the Senegal goalkeepers towel. "Get the contract out, put it on the table, let him write whatever number he want's on it, after what he's done since he's been here. Carrick's at the wheel man Man United are back!" Man United managed to give Man City one of the most convincing beatings they've recieved since Pep Guardiola arrived a decade ago. Was this a Michael Carrick masterclass? A sign that Pep is checked out? Or just the usual Man United hitting Man City on the break game that seems to happen so often. As we inch closer to Ireland's World Cup playoffs in March, the world feels like it's inching closer to all out war. Please, just leave it until after the summer!

  2. Alonso Gonzo, Carrick's at the Wheel, Jude Bellingham's App

    Alonso Gonzo, Carrick's at the Wheel, Jude Bellingham's App

    There was giant killing galore in the FA Cup third round as lowly clubs like Macclesfield and Brighton knocked out teams like Crystal Palace and Man United. As United were knocked out of the FA cup the news has come out that Michael Carrick will in fact be the clubs interim manager until the end of the season, and not Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as it looked. What did Ole say during the interview? The biggest game and story of the week came live from center of the known universe Saudi Arabia, as the Spanish super cup took place between Barcelona and Real Madrid. Barcelona were the winners on the day, and that was the final straw for Xabi Alonso as manager. What next for Alonso? A nice break? The Liverpool job that seems written in the stars? Or should he really steamroll ahead with damaging his career and head to Man United in the summer? Finally, we do some investigative reporting live on the show as we download and take a look through Jude Bellingham's official app to see what could possibly be on there?

    Amorim Sacked, Maresca Out, Ireland Watch

    2026 started with a bang as Ruben Amorim was swiftly sacked by Man United after a string of press conferences where he took aim at the board.  Where do Man United go now? Who will be their first ever interim interim manager? How does Amorim's sacking statement match up to the last 7 or so in since 2012? It wasn't just Ruben Amorim that is on the outs, as Enzo Maresca also left Chelsea suddenly, after also doing a string of press conferences where he took aim at the board. This also comes off the back Enzo apparently speaking to Man City as they start to plan for life after Pep. Where do Chelsea go now? Who from the Bluecorp umbrella do they have lined up to be the next fall guy? What even are Chelsea anymore? And finally, we do a quick recap of the football that actually matters, as we roundup news from the Ireland team in advance of the big playoff in March.

  5. Spurs Leave One on Liverpool, Man United's New Standards, Pep Ruins Christmas

    Spurs Leave One on Liverpool, Man United's New Standards, Pep Ruins Christmas

    As we approach the halfway point of the season things are starting to shape up in the Premier League. Liverpool beat Spurs 2-1, in a game that featured two red cards, a broken leg, a classic Richarlison moment and a quite vulgar celebration from Ekitike. Aston Villa made it 10 wins in a row in all comps with a win over Man United, but once again after the game, most of the talk was about how Man United are looking better every time they lose. The Evan Ferguson-meter has swung back to NOT GOOD ENOUGH for Gasperini as the weekly see-saw continues. Pep Guardiola gleefully told the press how we was planning on ruining the Man City players rare Christmas off. Support the show Want to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

    Salah's All Good, Maresca's Cryptic Comment, Messi's India Tour

    Arsenal managed to survive the usually awful Wolves thanks to two late own goals, are the cracks starting to show or is this just par for the course during the winter period? Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca capped off a routine 2-0 win over Everton with a bizarre post match press conference where he announced it had been the worst 48 hours he has experienced as a Chelsea manager due to lack of support. All seems forgotten at Liverpool as Salah returned to the fold as Anfield sang his name and he became a record breaker at the club. But have the club really put it behind them? Lionel Messi entered a new stratosphere of fame as a gigantic bronzed statue of him was unveiled as part of a disastrous tour of India.

  7. Sayonara Salah, World Cup Draw Torture, Villa's Parrott Moment

    Sayonara Salah, World Cup Draw Torture, Villa's Parrott Moment

    It looks like it's all over for Salah at Liverpool after an explosive 7 minute rant to anyone who would listen about how he feels he's not wanted at the club, how he's been thrown under the bus and isn't speaking to the manager. Surely, he could have just...waited a few weeks and probably wouldn't have had to deal with this problem? As Ireland are still in limbo about their World Cup 2026 participation, it meant we were subjected to a Donald Trump approved World Cup draw featuring hours of Hollywood cameos and endless performances from the likes of the Village People, to see who else would be in our group, IF we get there. It's been a bad week for Arsenal as a moment of bad judgement from Madueke see's Aston Villa go up the other end and score a winner with the last kick of the game. This must be how Hungary felt. More Man United breaking news from the past as their streak of Monday/Thursday games continues. Support the show Want to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

    Paqueta's Pleas, Caicedo Sees Red, Parrott's Panenka

    A feisty top of the table clash between Arsenal and Chelsea ended in a draw after yellow cards galore and straight red for Caicedo. What is it about Chelsea and Battle's of the Bridges? Liverpool returned to winning ways over West Ham with a goal from Isak. But the real talking point coming out of the game was Lucas Paqueta's bizzare red card for double dissent and is equally as bizarre statements after the game. Avert your gaze Ireland bandwagoners but Troy Parrott had an absolute shocker over the weekend as he skied a last minute penalty in particularly embarrassing fashion.
