    Ep 83: Haaland Won't Stop, Isak Saves Reds & Arsenal Win UGLY

    Haaland just keeps scoring. Isak turns Brentford around. Arsenal win ugly. Again. Episode 83 of Football Focus Weekly breaks down a Premier League weekend where the title race, the injury lists and the pressure on a few managers all moved at once. We start at Brentford, where Liverpool needed a spark and got it from a very unlikely place, with two red cards changing the shape of the game and Alexander Isak and Florian Wirtz at the centre of it. Then it's Manchester City, who keep winning, keep scoring and keep selling a record for Enzo Maresca, while we ask how long Erling Haaland can keep this up without a rest. At the City Ground, Arsenal found a way again, but the slow starts are becoming a talking point and we get into whether it's a warning sign or just what champions do. At Everton, Chelsea produced Xabi Alonso's most complete performance yet, and we talk about the moment that overshadowed it. And at Elland Road, it's another tricky week for Manchester United and Michael Carrick, with Lisandro Martinez, Bruno Fernandes in a new role and a debut start for Carlos Baleba all up for debate. In Best of the Rest we head to La Liga for Barcelona's trip to Betis and Real Madrid's weekend, look back at a wild Champions League night in Rome, and give Brighton's halfway-line wonder goal the attention it deserves. To close, we look ahead to Champions League Matchday 3 and Premier League Matchweek 8, with all the fixtures and our picks.

    City Humble Liverpool at Anfield, Chelsea fire 5, Man U Throw It Away | Football Focus Weekly Ep 82

    City take Anfield apart. Chelsea hit five. United and Spurs, and a stoppage-time twist. Episode 82 of Football Focus Weekly is your full Premier League Matchweek 6 breakdown, with the Champions League back on the horizon and plenty to unpack after the international break. We open at Anfield, where Liverpool hosted Manchester City in their first game since City were found guilty of more than 100 financial breaches. We talk through the atmosphere, how a tight first hour changed once Gravenberch was sent off, how Doku and Cherki tore Liverpool apart, and why Barcola and Wirtz are under the microscope. Then we head to the Emirates, where Arsenal, still stinging from the Brighton defeat, took on a Leeds side who made life very uncomfortable. We dig into the bench, the attack and what Arteta is still trying to figure out. Next, Chelsea. Xabi Alonso's side were two goals up inside three minutes against Bournemouth, so we look at the fast starts, Jordan Henderson's big night, Caicedo's return and Joao Pedro's scoring run. At Old Trafford, Manchester United and Tottenham played out a game full of drama: a red card, a late equaliser, a debut that got the stadium on its feet and more questions about Michael Carrick. We break down what Spurs did right, what United did wrong and where both sides go from here. In Best of the Rest we cover the pressure building on Fulham's Arbeloa, Crystal Palace's win over Nottingham Forest, the Mbappe and Vinicius Jr puzzle at Real Madrid, and a huge Champions League week for the English clubs, including Atletico vs Manchester United and Manchester City vs PSG. We finish with our predictions for Champions League Matchday 2 and Premier League Matchweek 7. Hosts: Akrutto & Ndegz | Producer: George #FFWPod #PremierLeague

    Arsenal HUMILIATED By Brighton + Man United’s NIGHTMARE START | Football Focus Weekly EP 81

    FFW is back with the final Premier League roundup before the international break — and Matchweek 5 delivered some huge talking points. Arsenal’s perfect start came crashing down as Brighton produced a dominant 3-0 win. We break down how Fabian Hürzeler’s intensity, pressing and physicality unsettled the champions, and whether Brighton exposed a repeatable way to disrupt Mikel Arteta’s side. Chelsea were also beaten 3-0 by Brentford, raising more questions about Xabi Alonso’s defensive structure, set-piece problems and an increasingly unsettled midfield. Manchester City survived a wild 5-3 win over Sunderland, with Antoine Semenyo, Rayan Cherki, Enzo Fernández and Erling Haaland all involved — but Brian Brobbey’s hat-trick exposed just how open City can still be defensively. Manchester United dropped more points in a 1-1 draw with Fulham. Matheus Cunha rescued a point late, but United head into the break with just five points from five games and more questions over their pressing, game control and Michael Carrick’s in-game management. We also cover: • Tottenham 2-3 Aston Villa — Spurs remain winless • Bournemouth 0-1 Liverpool — Isak scores again as Liverpool build defensive momentum • Sevilla 1-3 Barcelona — Barca continue their perfect start • Atletico Madrid 2-1 Real Madrid — Mourinho furious after a controversial derby defeat And with no Premier League predictions during the international break, we finish with a full 2026 Ballon d’Or debate. Rodri, Lamine Yamal, Kylian Mbappé, Lionel Messi, Harry Kane, Ousmane Dembélé, Fabián Ruiz and Michael Olise all come under discussion as we ask what should matter most this year: individual performance, World Cup impact, trophies or consistency across the full season. The official criteria put individual performance first, followed by team achievements and then class/fair play.
