    Ange: Forest Regrets, Spurs Chaos & Beating United in Europe | Stick to Football 117

    Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE. After last week’s blockbuster episode, Ange Postecoglou returns to join Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright for a deeper look at his life in and out of football. Ange reflects on his upbringing in Australia after his family moved from Greece, how that shaped him, and where his love for the game truly began. The conversation then turns to his coaching journey, from developing his bold tactical identity at Tottenham to his short spell at Nottingham Forest. Does he regret taking the job at the City Ground, and would he make the same decision again? We also revisit his time at Spurs, including winning the Europa League against Manchester United, managing top players like Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero, and how he views both the highs and the setbacks. Celtic, VAR and what comes next in his career are all up for discussion, as well as his view that the Manchester United job is “the hardest in football”.

    Ashley Cole: Arsenal Exit, Chelsea Success & Dealing With Media Criticism | Stick to Football EP 104

    Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE. This week, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Wayne Rooney, Roy Keane and Ian Wright are joined by one of the Premier League’s greatest ever full backs, Ashley Cole, for a brilliant episode full of big reveals and funny moments. We start by looking back at Ashley’s early days at Arsenal and how he went from a young prospect at Highbury to one of the best full backs we have ever seen. He talks about the ups and downs, the moments that shaped him and how a loan spell at Crystal Palace changed everything. The conversation then turns to coaching. Ashley talks about the work he has already done alongside Wayne and with England, and why he sees himself stepping into management sooner rather than later. We also revisit his incredible playing career, from the Invincibles and working under Arsene Wenger to joining Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea team. Ash speaks openly about leaving Arsenal for Chelsea, one of the most talked about moves English football has ever seen, and the reaction that followed in the media and beyond. To finish, the table look back at England’s golden generation. Why didn’t that group achieve what many expected and was that England’s best chance of winning something major? Where do you see Ashley Cole managing in the future? Don't forget to subscribe so you don't miss an episode- and please leave a review to help others find us too.

    Paul Scholes: Stepping Away From TV, Caring for his son & United Career | Stick to Football EP 100

    Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by Arne. Paul Scholes joins us as a surprise guest for our 100th episode, and it turned into one of the most open and genuine conversations we’ve ever had. He talks about stepping away from punditry, how his life revolves around caring for his son Aiden, and what family life looks like alongside his role at Salford City. Of course, we also talk football. From being mentored by Nobby Stiles and having a pint the night before youth games, to starting up front before moving into midfield, and what it was really like playing alongside Roy Keane. Scholes gives brilliant insight into his current work at Salford, helping young midfielders with timing, finishing, and learning how to slow the game down in the box. He also reflects on retiring from England at 29, the challenge of playing out wide, and what was really going through his head during that final tournament under Sven.
