And so, the sun sets on another international campaign. Ireland had some highs and some REAL lows.To see us out, Ireland were beaten 5-0 by colonial rivals England in Wembley after 20 minutes of madness which manager Heimir Halgrimsson described as 'giving up'. But for 45 glorious minutes we were right in that game!We were right in that game until of course the VAR team bottled what looked like a stonewall penalty on Evan Ferguson. Cathal has seen enough and he has some thoughts to get off his chest.Just before the show started recording news broke that Pep Guardiola has signed a one year contract extension at Man City, with the option of an additional year. We ask why now? And, does this mean what we all think this means regarding the 115 charges?Support the showWant to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

4 losses in a row Pep? 4? That's insane!Things have gone from bad to historically bad as Pep Guardiola loses 4 games in a row for the first time in his managerial career as Man City lose 2-1 to Brighton.Too many injuries at once? Or is a certain looming legal issue effecting the club?We've all been there, sitting beside a stranger at 4am in their kitchen, wide eyed, telling them exactly what we think of that big German **** Jurgen Klopp Unfortunately for PGMOL official David Coote, his rant was videoed and leaked.After more dropped points, this time in the form of a 1-1 draw with Chelsea, we don our vibes consultant caps and ponder, has Mikel Arteta's Arsenal side peaked already? And will they ever reach the dizzying heights it seemed they were destined for?Finally, everyone's favourite segment song of the week which of course we all are familiar with.Support the showWant to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

All eyes were on Ireland it seemed this week as Damien Duff led Shelbourne to a historic League of Ireland win, just three seasons after promotion in a campaign which captured hearts around the world.Fresh off of ignoring Duffers facetime post league win, Jose Mourinho was letting loose with an 8+ minute rant on VAR, the Turkish league, the stink of the place and everything in between.In a surprising move Arsenal Director and primary Arteta backer Edu announced he is set to leave Arsenal for his dream job of taking Nottingham Forest and Olympiakos to new heights.Is it time to tell who is going to win the Premier League?And finally, thanks for coming Ruud Van Nistelrooy, but let that be the end of you and your ilk (successful club legends) at Man United.Support the showWant to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

Let it be known that nobody goes a full year with just one win in Europe and gets away with it at Manchester United!Erik Ten Hag tenure as United manager finally came to an end after a 3 years of poor league results and great domestic success. We take a look back at where it all went wrong and ask how bad was he really?It's a dark day for football as far as Real Madrid are concerned as Rodri wins the Ballon d'Or over Vinicius Jr.Maybe it wasn't the "historic robbery" that has upset Madrid however, maybe it was getting hammered by Barcelona in the latest El Classico, a game which featured yet another Mbappé disasterclass.Meanwhile, in the Premier League Liverpool and Arsenal played out the epitome of their new risk averse football in a game that was somehow filled with goals and also devoid of much excitement.Support the showWant to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

The most successful international break in pod history as Ireland actually WON a game of football, and it wasn't even against Gibraltar this time!Just as things looked up after beating Finland, Ireland were halted by an impassioned Greece team, honoring their late teammate George Baldock. Lee Carsley's England also lost to the Greeks, prompting Carsley to strike out in the post-match press conference.Enter Thomas Tuchel, as England aims for the rare feat of winning a Euros or World Cup with a non-national manager.Meanwhile, Nigeria faced a suspicious last-minute plane diversion, leaving them stranded without food, water, or Wi-Fi—allegedly a mind game from Libya.Even Sir Alex Ferguson isn't safe from cutbacks at Manchester United, as INEOS has cut his cushy ambassador role.Support the showWant to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

We are rapidly leaving the 'too early to tell' timezone and starting to see how the Premier League is really shaping up this year.Erik Ten Hag was given the dreaded 2 games to turn it around and managed a a draw against Porto and a draw against Aston Villa, so what happens now?Man United fans nostalgia haas reached sad new levels as they long for the mid 2020's.As Cole Palmer calmly watched chaos unfold around him during the Chelsea Nottingham Forest game, we ask, is he more cunning than he seems?It finallly happened, as Ange Postecoglu's spirit seemed officially broken while he spoke about his worst result ever as Spurs manager, after they became the first team in Premier League history to lose 10 games after being 2 goals up. This time with Danny Welbeck's Brighton dealing out the psychic damage.Support the showWant to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

Is it that time of the year already? It feels like a game that decides the Man United manager's tenure is over comes around earlier every season.Man United suffered an embarassing 3-0 home loss to Tottenham. Another in a long line of poor results which see's the pressure really piled on Erik Ten Hag.After their 'spicy' game last week and the subsequent discussions around Arsenal's mastery of the dark arts, Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta have had enough of the buddy buddy act.As Cole Palmer put 4 away in 45 minutes to give Chelsea a 4-2 win, we ask ourselves the worrying question..was Todd Boehley's plan right all along?The Madrid derby descended into a literal poop slinging contest as Diego Simeone pleaded with Ultras to allow the game continue.Support the showWant to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?

A rare one game review of the Premier League this week as Arsenal and Man City played out an absolute classic, but not the type of classic you'd usually expect.Arsenal are insistent on becoming the bad boys of the league, and they could not have picked a worse time in history to decide this.We have a real rivalry on our hands with angry post match press conferences, injuries, and an absolute blockbuster five minutes of Erling Haaland hijinks.Tinfoil hats on as Rodri is out for the season as his knee explodes just days after hinting that players should think about striking against the ever growing fixture calendar.Support the showWant to support us and also get some sweet bonus exclusive pods?
