A trend appears to have emerged in recent years of managers coming to the Premier League and, despite everyone thinking they should change their system, sticking to their guns.

Marcus, Jim & David are here to pick apart the reasons behind the inflexibility of modern managers. Plus, would we back a relegation play-off where the league's worst go head-to-head in a death match? And who should win the Premier League's manager of the season award?

The Arsenal boo boys were out in force after a damning defeat to Bournemouth at the weekend. Today, Marcus, Jim, Pete and David discuss what Arsenal need to change to get their title bid back on track.

Elsewhere, Man City wore Arsenal's tears as they eased past Chelsea. Plus, the threat of relegation gets very real for Spurs and David Moyes is giddy at the thought of Champions League football.

Pete, still smarting from his defeat to Jim, returns to officiate a clash for the ages. Old Spelgium has been piping up once again - and who else but the Democratic Republic of Jimbabwe to answer that call?

It's Marcus and Jim who square off in a feisty game of Jack-jitsu, battling for the honour of unlocking the pearly gates to the weekend. Who will come out on top?

The Premier League's back, baby! And the football gods have served up a whole platter of top flight goodness for us this weekend. It's a big one for Spurs as they head to Sunderland in Bobby De Zerbi's first game in charge. Is it possible for Spurs to sink any deeper? Yes, the answer is yes.

Marcus, Jim & Pete look ahead to this weekend's action and look back on a big night of European football for the English teams. Elsewhere, Samir Nasri is under investigation for his Deliveroo orders and FIFA are back at their old tricks again.

Liverpool had a tough night in Paris, but it could've been worse. At least Arne Slot wasn't mistaken for a ball.

Luke, Vish and Jim discuss last night's Champions League quarter-finals and why Marcos Llorente is such a profoundly odd bloke. Vish makes the case that Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is an Enhanced Games version of Thomas Müller, while Spunkbubble Richard Keys reminds Jim of one of the greatest hatchet job interviews of all time (which you can read here)...

Arsenal may have taken some hits at home, but get them on a ferry across the Channel and they'll get the job done. A tough old night for the Gunners but Kai Havertz got the goal to give them the win. Maybe that drill with the pens actually worked?

Marcus, Luke & Vish give their thoughts on a big win for Mikel Arteta's boys. Plus, victory for Bayern in Madrid, Vish gets his atlas out, and Luke throws yet more shade on the Select Car Leasing Stadium.

No team has ever won a quadruple, but it doesn't stop us getting excited about the possibility every season. This year, Arsenal were in the conversation before they were dumped out of both the FA Cup and the League Cup. Alas, the quadruple is out of reach for another season - but will it ever be done?

Marcus, Jim & David reach a verdict on that, before picking our all-time favourite players to have dragged their careers back from the brink. We also entertain the idea of restricting how often teams can change managers in a season (sorry, Spurs fans) and, inspired by the Artemis II launch, decide which players we'd take to the moon.

A weekend of football that had something for everyone, but especially – sunnies on, slippers off, and back to winning ways – Roy bloody Hodgson. Marcus, David and Jim discuss that and four FA Cup quarterfinals which all did lots for the Ramble.

Jim explains the issue with Arsenal's mentality (and his position at the pub), while David argues that the Enzo Fernández situation shows just what Chelsea fans are dealing with under the current regime. Elsewhere, the disillusion deepens at Liverpool, with Rayan Cherki gleefully fanning the flames...

Domestic football is back! In other news, Pete’s got some new asthma medication and it’s unlocked a new dimension in his lungs (and mind).
