This week on Five Aside, the boys unpack absolute chaos at Chelsea—another manager gone, fans emotionally checked out, and a squad low on confidence. Is it bad recruitment, poor structure, or just vibes gone wrong?
Then it’s over to Arsenal, where title dreams are starting to wobble. Are they bottling it again or just hitting a rough patch? The crew debates mentality, missed chances, and whether City have already snatched momentum.
Plus: Golden Boot trivia chaos, Florida tour vibes, and classic Five Aside banter throughout.
