  1. Now for the knockouts!

    Now for the knockouts!

    England top the group. Kane breaks Lineker's record. And the knockout rounds are here. Chris and Sam react to the 2-0 win over Panama as Kane heads home his 11th World Cup goal to become England's all-time top scorer in the competition. We hand out player ratings, ask why England keep starting slowly, and look ahead to DR Congo in the Round of 32 on Wednesday. Then we go around the houses. Every Round of 32 matchup previewed — Brazil vs Japan, France vs Sweden, Argentina vs Cape Verde, Netherlands vs Morocco, and whether Belgium are about to go home to Senegal. Who's got the hardest path to the final? Spoiler: it might be us. The players of the tournament so far: Messi on six goals and in tears, Mbappé looking unstoppable, Dembélé's hat trick vindicating Sam's Episode 1 prediction, Vozinha going from obscurity to millions of followers, and Kane rewriting the record books. We rank the Golden Boot contenders, argue over the Golden Ball, and name our biggest disappointments. Steve Clarke resigns as Scotland manager — 30 days after signing a four-year deal. We ask whether he was the right man or whether his safety-first approach had hit its ceiling. And the transfers are flying. Elliot Anderson completes a British record £116 million move to Manchester City. Sam called it on Episode 1. Dad championed him as man of the match against Croatia before anyone else. Plus Granit Xhaka is potentially heading to Chelsea to reunite with Xabi Alonso — and Sunderland fans are furious. New episodes throughout the knockout rounds. Next up: England vs DR Congo. Come on, England. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Chris has done rubbish notes

    The World Cup group stage is heating up — and we've got a LOT to cover. Canada smash six past Qatar, the Netherlands destroy Sam's dark horse Sweden 5-1, Yamal scores on his return as Spain hammer Saudi Arabia 4-0, and Cape Verde's Vozinha continues his fairytale. Plus today's fixtures: Messi, Haaland and Mbappé all back on the pitch. We preview England vs Ghana tomorrow night, answer two listener questions about Man City's Premier League chances, and pick through the newly released 2026/27 fixtures — including the Manchester derby in September and Liverpool vs City in October.

Plus the best of the week: Messi's hat trick and tears in Kansas City, Haaland's dream World Cup debut, Mbappé scoring twice, Spain held by Cape Verde's superhero goalkeeper, Sweden smashing five, and Germany putting seven past Curacao.

  4. The World Cup is Here!

    The World Cup is Here!

    The World Cup is three days old and it's already completely lost its mind. Mexico's opener produced a record THREE red cards. The USA tore Paraguay apart 4-1 in the best 45 minutes American football has ever seen — then lost Pulisic to a calf injury at half-time. Vinícius Jr pulled off a wonder goal to rescue Brazil against a Morocco side who looked every bit as dangerous as they did in 2022. Scotland scored their first World Cup goal in 28 years. And Australia delivered the shock of the tournament with a 2-0 dismantling of Türkiye that nobody saw coming. Chris and Sam react to all eight matches, pick apart the weekend's standout fixtures — including Netherlands vs Japan and Ivory Coast vs Ecuador — and then lock in their official tournament predictions on the scoreboard. Winner, Golden Boot, dark horse, biggest flop, player of the tournament, England's finish and more. All on the record. No take-backs. No VAR reviews. Plus: England have landed in Kansas City, Tuchel says they're "in the tunnel" now, and Croatia are three days away. The summer starts here. New episodes throughout the World Cup. Next up: England vs Croatia Reaction Pod, dropping after Wednesday's opener. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    We are back!

    A fresh year and a fresh microphone disaster. After losing the first twenty minutes of recording, Chris and Sam go again with a packed roundup. They break down Michael Carrick’s arrival at Manchester United, what Steve Holland brings to the set up, and how the Manchester derby could shape the week ahead. There’s chat on City’s new signing Semenyo, transfer rumours, England left back debates, and a no holding back look at Blackburn and Blackpool’s recent form. The lads wrap up with what’s next on the fixture list and a bit of family football chaos from over Christmas. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
