Fresh from his appearance as a TV pundit during Scotland's 1-1 draw with Switzerland in Germany, former West Ham boss David Moyes sits down with The Sports Agents to reflect, as Scotland's Euro 2024 adventure continues...
He also opens up about his departure from West Ham this summer, his future in management and if strike action is the only way for players to address the number of games they're facing next season.
Later, ever wondered how those televised games in the Premier League really get selected? Director of Football at Sky Gary Hughes gives us a little insight into how it works, after the new season's fixtures were released.

This week on The Sports Agents,
How and why did an image of Arsenal's Bukayo Saka become the main feature on the back pages of almost every major newspaper following England's 1-0 defeat to Iceland... despite him only featuring as a 65th minute substitute.
Football writer Henry Winter and Channel 4 sports correspondent Jordan Jarrett-Bryan joined Gabby and Mark and reveal how these photos are chosen and why the context is important when it comes to Saka and England.
And as promised, also this week, we took a closer look at Netball Super League 2.0 - the fallout, the repercussions for the game at grassroots level and the perfect example of what happens when a 'smaller' sport makes the decision to go professional.
NSL managing director Claire Nelson and Team Bath's own Kadeen Corbin were among those to feature on this special episode.

Does every sport need to professionalise in order to survive?...
When plans for a revamped Netball Super League were revealed in May, fans and players were outraged at the exclusion of four franchises, including 5-time Champions Team Bath.
Today, on The Sports Agents, Gabby & Mark speak to key stakeholders to find out how those uncomfortable decisions were reached and the effect the new changes will have on both current players and the next generation - as the entire South West of England (and Scotland) have been left without a team.
Will Netball Super League 2.0 and the broadcast deals to televise every game enhance the sport, or will the changes mean many young fans are lost to other sports?
NSL Managing Director Claire Nelson, Sarah Gandon from the Players' Association and Team Bath's own Kadeen Corbin feature, as well as, your questions!

If you hadn't actually watched England's defeat to Iceland in their final warm-up game ahead of the Euros, you'd have been forgiven for thinking Bukayo Saka was largely responsible...
Images of the Arsenal talisman adorned the back pages of almost every major newspaper - despite him only being introduced as a 65th minute substitute at Wembley on Friday night.
Today on The Sports Agents, Gabby & Mark are joined by football writer Henry Winter and Channel 4 sports correspondent Jordan Jarrett-Bryan, to explain the why the context matters, how those photos actually end up on the back pages of multiple publications, and ultimately, why this keeps happening with Saka & England.
And later, a sneak peek at Thursday's special episode into the fall-out from the announcement of a Netball Super League 2.0.
