Dave and Paul Talk Football

Episode 17 - Humble Pie & Fruit Grenades


Listen Later

Adam turns up with a “peace offering” for the lads… a bag of fruit each. It lasts about 30 seconds before Dave threatens to start throwing produce.


From there, it’s classic chaos: Dave’s not-quite-an-apology voice note to Paul, Chelsea’s “humble pie” problem, and the internet committing crimes by putting Declan Rice in a greatest free-kick-takers lineup ahead of actual legends.


Then it gets properly spicy: are Arsenal top because they’re elite, or just the best of a bad bunch? Does it matter how you win, or is winning all that counts? The boys go deep on set pieces, “spectacle vs results”, and whether football’s quality is dropping.


We pivot to Manchester United’s surprise resurgence, Manchester City dropping points, and Rodri’s post-match meltdown, followed by a rapid-fire Q&A on bias, burnout, modern managers, squad management, and whether social media has completely cooked football discourse.


Expect debates, hot takes, and absolutely zero peace offerings.
