Arsenal inquest begins (and we look ahead to Forest vs Liverpool)

They’re all very down in the dumps at Arsenal. A surprisingly high number of fans seem to have lost faith in Mikel Arteta. That seems a bit dramatic, doesn’t it? We check in on Amy Lawrence and Ian Stone Are Nottingham Forest title contenders? Matt Davies Adams certainly thinks so and our Liverpool correspondent James Pearce thinks the league leaders are in for a really tough game. Plus, we preview all of Tuesday’s big games around Europe.

Arsenal crash out of the cup to Man Utd (and Barcelona destroy Real Madrid)

The FA Cup takes a lot of stick, from me in particular, but Sunday offered two of the best sort of games. First non league Tamworth gave Tottenham a real test across 101 minutes of uncompromising football class war and then Arsenal and Man Utd went at each other in a game that had more needle than quality. Carl Anka and James McNicholas were at The Emirates, Jay Harris was in Tamworth, we’ve also got Seb Stafford Bloor on a rampant Bayer Leverkusen and Dermot Corrigan was watching the Classico that no-one in England could see (by legitimate means). This is everything you need to know about the weekend’s football.

Everton dump Dyche (and does Potter have a chance at West Ham?)

We all knew Sean Dyche was under significant pressure at Everton, but I don’t think anyone expected him to sacked just a few hours before kick off in the FA Cup third round tie against Peterborough. David Ornstein and Paddy Boyland fill us in on the details. What do we make of Graham Potter at West Ham? Phil Hay has his doubts. And we have some good news for Manchester United fans too, they certainly haven’t had much of that over the past few weeks.

Spurs take the upper hand against Liverpool (and how did Barca get off the hook?)

Did anyone expect Spurs to play really mature, sensible football and beat Liverpool without conceding a goal? This was a very impressive display from them, though the referee’s decision not to dismiss Lucas Bergvall may have been more important than his dalliance with the tannoy… Julian Lopetegui has been put out of his misery at West Ham. The decision was finally reached on Wednesday after the poor man was made to take a morning training session. Roshane Thomas is here to tell us if it was the right decision or not. And remember how Barcelona were going to lose Dani Olmo for nothing? Not anymore. The Spanish government has stepped in and he can play again. Pol Ballus explains what just happened.

Newcastle stun Arsenal at The Emirates (And what’s the latest from West Ham?)

Arsenal sent the xG meter past the three goals mark, but Newcastle were far more ruthless in front of goal and they have just secured a huge victory in the first leg of the League Cup semi-finals. Can Arsenal turn it around at St James Park? I don’t fancy their chances… What’s the latest on Julien Lopetegui? We speak to our West Ham man Roshane Thomas. And it’s the first Heavy Metal Football…statistics of the season. Are Brentford all they’re cracked up to be? The numbers shed some doubt… Presenter: Iain Macintosh With: Jordan Campbell, George Caulkin, Roshane Thomas Producer: Si Watts Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Why Arsenal should be cheerful (and what did Pulisic just do to Inter?)

Arsenal fans seem a little nervous right now and I can understand that. Newcastle stand between them and a first cup final since 2020, and the Magpies are in fine form. But former Gunner Adrian Clarke is very optimistic… AC Milan looked dead and buried in Saudi Arabia, but Christian Pulisic led a heroic comeback to secure Super Coppa success against Internazionale. Greg O’Keefe was watching that for us. We’re really going to have to start taking Nottingham Forest seriously. They are the real deal. Matt Davies Adams joins us to explain why. And if that wasn’t enough, we’ve got David Ornstein discussing his fascinating interview with Pierre Emerick Aubameyang. How did we fit all this into just ten minutes? Scissors.

Drab Liverpool held by United (and what on earth is going on with Dani Olmo?)

Liverpool were supposed to give Manchester United the spanking of a lifetime, but they only escaped with a draw because a last gasp opportunity fell to Harry Maguire. What went wrong, we ask James Pearce, while pivoting skilfully to ask Laurie Whitwell what went right for United. And seriously, what is the deal with Dani Olmo? Can he leave Barcelona for free now? We asked Pol Ballus who patiently explained…yes. Yes, he can. We’ve got all the big scores and stories from around Europe, including a fine performance from Roma in the derby against Lazio and, as an avatar of our gently tweaked format, we ask Seb Stafford Bloor about this young goalkeeper that Spurs have just signed. Listen now (or later, we’re not fussy, it’s your life) and remember to follow, subscribe, review, rhapsodise or simply enjoy on your own terms.

A thriller Thursday in Tottenham as Spurs edge Man Utd

The night started slowly in north London, but those who exercised patience reaped the rewards. Tottenham were 3-0 up against Manchester United, all but set for the Carabao Cup semi finals, when Fraser Forster decided to make the game a little more interesting with two terrible errors. Jay Harris has the story of the rest of the night. In Europe the Conference League league stage concluded. Chelsea were unsurprisingly top but there was still some fun to be had. Lucy Oliva was at Stamford Bridge to watch the Blues walk to their sixth victory of the campaign so far. And Everton’s takeover by The Freidkin Group finally went through. There is a new hope on the horizon on Merseyside. Paddy Boyland has all the details. Christmas reading here Host: Abi Paterson Producer: Tom Fuller Learn more about your ad choices.

Iain’s holiday plea worked

19/12/2024

Ben’s unique nickname

The re-launch this summer has resulted in what is no doubt the best daily soccer podcast (sorry, I’m American - though I’d be dual eligible through my Gran for England if I were any good at, ahem, football). It’s informative, insightful, and doesn’t take itself too seriously. It’s a lovely part of my daily routine and I’ve waited far too long to share my enthusiasm. Keep up the good work!
Brilliant

This formula is fantastic. Before my blurry eyes have even seen my face I am updated on all that matters in football. Love Ian’s rants especially about the new concept for a league emanating from Spain. Idiots.
It is THE show

Whether I’m watching every game across the top leagues that weekend or missing them all, this show is great for catching up or expanding on what’s happening on and off the pitch with Iain’s insightful and often humorous views.
Points are good
