Football Ramble

Everton were dragged deeper into the mire last night as Sean Dyche’s band of merry men figured out how to kick the ball in the net just in time.

Kate, Andy and Home Alone villain Pete Donaldson react to a dramatic night everywhere you looked, as Karim Benzema extended his Luxury Memory Foam Cushioned Header range to whip Chelsea and Aleksandar Mitrovic claimed another victim to put Fulham closer to the Premier League. And someone else is getting closer to the Prem as well: Shteve, welcome home.

Jules, Luke and Jim feast on a ten-course Barclays banquet, as a brilliant Brentford swept Chelsea aside and Eddie Howe's 'no fear, no idea' management style came home to roost. 

We also get a postmortem from Steve Bruce after the worst game he's ever seen and ask what will come first: a start for Marcus Rashford or relegation for Frank Lampard?

The final pieces of the World Cup puzzle are coming together this week, so Marcus, Andy and Luke settle in with some updates. 

Mexico and USA punched their tickets last night, while we saw the unveiling of the tournament's Pocket Rocket 5000 matchball and more ludicrous dismissals of human rights abuses in Qatar. Back home, Joe Hart's opened up about Nuno giving him a pasting and five subs come riding over the hill!

England cantered past Ivory Coast thanks to a vintage Serge Aurier display, in spite of the Boo Boys at Wembley who gave Harry Maguire a hard time.

Jules, Luke and Jim discuss the England team’s reaction to Harry Maguire’s treatment and get stuck into some huge World Cup qualifiers across Europe and Africa, as Cristiano Ronaldo squeezes through the net while Mo Salah misses out. Still, at least he got to record a cover of Waiting For Tonight.

Ahead of a delicious smorgasbord of World Cup qualifiers, Kate, Vish and Pete are here to tell you everything you need to know – and quite a lot of stuff you don’t, to be honest.

They speculate on Wilf Zaha’s celebration plan, Marcus Rashford’s career plan, and all plans go out of the window as Pete returns to the dials for Portmantonio Conte! Plus, Ronaldo becomes music conductor and the entire Nigerian population ready themselves for a huge Jollof Derby.
