Paqueta's Pleas, Caicedo Sees Red, Parrott's Panenka

It looks like it's all over for Salah at Liverpool after an explosive 7 minute rant to anyone who would listen about how he feels he's not wanted at the club, how he's been thrown under the bus and isn't speaking to the manager. Surely, he could have just...waited a few weeks and probably wouldn't have had to deal with this problem?As Ireland are still in limbo about their World Cup 2026 participation, it meant we were subjected to a Donald Trump approved World Cup draw featuring hours of Hollywood cameos and endless performances from the likes of the Village People, to see who else would be in our group, IF we get there.It's been a bad week for Arsenal as a moment of bad judgement from Madueke see's Aston Villa go up the other end and score a winner with the last kick of the game.

As the entire Arsenal team was seen sprinting with all of their might back from one end of the pitch to the other 92 minutes in to a 2-0 win over Burnley, it was clear to see why they are now firmly favourites for the league. And maybe they also have something beyond just winning the title on their minds now too?After a 1-0 loss to Chelsea, Spurs fans booed their team off the pitch, and in the midst of the sea of negativity, captain Mickey Van De Ven and Djed Spence refused to acknowledge manager Thomas Frank.

Manchester United are back baby.  Rest in Piss the bad times 2013-2025. This is definitely a REAL dawn as Ruben Amorin beat their bogey team Brighton 4-2 at home to make 3 consecutive wins in the Premier League for Man United. What next for The Red Devils and, more importantly, what happens to that guy when he cuts his hair? Smart money is on a sharp veer into the far right.Liverpool continue to slide down the table as Brentford's long throws and pressure cooker tactics consigned Liverpool to another defeat in the Premier League. I explore the two questions that persist about Mohamaed Salah and Florian Wirtz. Can they play together, and if not, who should be dropped? The man who needs to make this decision is Arne Slot, who seems unable to reconcile with the fact that teams have changed their tactics this year when facing the champions.The classico between Real Madrid vs Barcelona had all the elements of one of the great games between these two clubs. A galaxy of stars for real madrid vs a team of uber talented La Masia teens and 5'8 and below men (Except for on loan Marcus Rashford) for Barcelona, Plenty of goals red card,s and pr,e pos,t and during the match shithousery from both sides. I recall this game via YouTube short highlights and place both sides in one of three categories of humbleness.Support the showWant to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

Who do Man United think they are? Playing a low block and not starting Sesko?Have they no honour? These were the words of Arne Slot as Man United beat Liverpool in Anfield in the Premier League for the first time since 2016.The Liverpool spiral continues with it now being 4 games lost in a row and the pressure is starting to mount on Arne Slot, especially with former boss Jurgen Klopp announcing his thoughts on potentially returning on the Diary of a CEO podcast.Man United were saved once again by the most mentally strong athlete in history, Harry Maguire.Can Ruben Amorim now go and win 3 games in a row? Or is this the latest in a long string of false dawns.As No Nonsense Hall of Famer Ange Postecoglou's sacking was confirmed pretty much straight after Forest lost to Chelsea, No Nonsense Hall of Famer Sean Dyche has been confirmed as new manager.Support the showWant to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

Ireland managed to just about cling on to World Cup qualifying hopes, with a win over 10 men Armenia in a deathly quiet Aviva stadium.Ireland also came very close to getting a draw away to Portugal, but it wasn't to be after some questionable refereeing decisions from a ref that seemed to be ecstatic to be on the same pitch as Cristiano Ronaldo.We cast an eye over some other results in the World Cup qualifiers featuring great performances from Haaland and some not so great performances from Isak and Gyokeres.Last week, we tried to see if there was a correlation between going 007 in the Premier League and being a great player. This time we're seeing which all time greats did or did not go World Cup 007.Support the showWant to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

The Liverpool spiral/finding out/crisis continued as they lost their third game on the bounce, this time to a last minute Chelsea winner.
