    Performative Arsenal, Spurs Despair, Mexico Has Fallen, Irish Pitch Up in Smoke

    Just as it was starting to look a bit ropey for Arsenal at the top of the league, Doctor Tottenham arrives and gives them the boost of confidence they need. Even with a pretty convincing win, one of the main talking points coming out of the game was just how aware Arsenal and especially Declan Rice are of the eyes of the footballing world being on them. Spurs look worse than ever, and with the injury list and attitudes at the club showing no sign of improvement, could relegation actually happen? Preperation for the most cursed World Cup of all time continues, as cities in host country Mexico are now under hostile cartel control, including the city which could potentially host Ireland, if we make it. Speaking of Ireland, did you hear the one about the brand new €500,000 pitch that was set on fire seconds after being unveiled?

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

    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!

    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.
