Football Ramble

The Foxes might not have been able to squeeze through the Europa League group stages last night, but at least a dog on Partizan’s pitch during their Europa Conference League game had a lovely old squeeze. Swings and roundabouts for the animal kingdom, eh?

Kate, Luke and Pete cast their eyes over last night’s action and Brendan Rodgers’ chapped lips on today’s Preview Show, sponsored by Betway! We also preview the best of the weekend’s offerings and find out about the Brazilian signer named after Gary Lineker. Plus, it’s the clash you’ve all been waiting for: MOORE VS MASON!

It was a landmark moment at Old Trafford last night, as Ralf Rangnick brought Tom Heaton on for his Man United debut 20 years after he first joined. That’s the stuff.

Marcus, Andy and Pete chew over the final chapter of the Champions League group stages, as Barcelona’s journey to a last eight Europa League defeat at the hands of David Moyes begins. Plus, Portmantonio Conte returns and Patrik Schick gets an unusual trophy…

Some say the Champions League group stages are boring. We say look at Porto vs Atlético’s three red cards in ten minutes and try telling us that isn’t world class entertainment.

Jules, Andy and Jim drink in last night’s action as Man City get a surprise in Leipzig. We also look over the fan review recommendations that’s getting Premier League bosses all hot and bothered, Jules gets a valuable lesson in sayings, and there’s bad news for Lionel Messi’s hotel in Spain.

Arsenal went into Banter Club retrograde last night with a dismal display that helped Everton to a vital three points. Even some picky VAR offsides for Richarlison couldn't save them!

Kate, Vish and Jim pick through Arsenal's torrid turn and wonder if Farhad Moshiri can turn things around at Everton despite all evidence suggesting otherwise. We also call in the Keggycopter to help with some signage at St James' Park, look ahead to tonight's Champions League action and fear for Jude Bellingham after some punchy post-match comments.

Marcus and Vish are joined by the returning Luke Moore for another post-Barclays bash, as West Ham's latest vintage win left David Moyes a bit *too* happy for our liking.

Elsewhere, Edmund Howe delivered a timely Toon win against struggling Burnley and Ralf Rangick's tactical tinkering was enough to unshackle Fred. We also recap a purrfect win for Chelsea in the Women's FA Cup final and enjoy another Divock Origi cameo - it's jam-packed, so join us!

Man United welcome in the Ralf Rangnick era with a chaotic win over Arsenal, with Fred epitomising the good, the bad and the batshit that Ralf must contend with. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Marcus, Andy and Jim look ahead to a bumper Barclays weekender on today's Preview Show, sponsored by Betway. There are some huge matches down the bottom of the table, a cross-capital ding dong and the Scott Parker Derby to name a few. Elsewhere, Phil Neville's been telling us about how many friends he wants/needs - poor Fizzer.

Fresh from catching some courtside NBA action with fellow celeb Troy Deeney, Andy joins Kate and Vish in the studio to look for Saúl Ñíguez. Even Thomas Tuchel doesn't know where he is, ffs.

We also recap a one-sided Merseyside derby and wonder what's next for Everton, retire Jack Grealish's Alice band and enjoy some elite outfield-player-in-net shenanigans in Turkey!

It seems the Keggy hoodoo is still lurking around every corner at St James' Park, as Eddie Howe is still looking to capture that entertaining allure. Shots on goal: some. Shots in their own feet: several.

Marcus, Jim and Pete also look over Leeds' last gasp win against Crystal Palace, where Raphinha's stuttering penalty run-up was nearly ended by the final whistle. We also bring you an update on robotic offsides and answer some concerning tuxedo problems on this week's edition of Pep Talks!

More bizarre football awards ceremonies last night, as Lionel Messi won the Ballon d'Or while Robert Lewandowski had to settle for the Whole Load of Goals prize dreamed up fifteen minutes beforehand.

Marcus, Pete and Vish bask in Lionel's reflected glory and wonder how Ralf Rangnick might get on at Manchester United after completing his move. We also look ahead to two huge Premier League matches, as Leeds search for a spark and Eddie Howe searches for a bigger blanket.

Even the blizzards summoned by Łukasz Fabiański this weekend weren't enough to stop either a purring Manchester City from winning or Sean Dyche from putting a jacket on. 

Kate, Jim and Lars round up a flurry of Premier League goodness as radio's Ralf Rangnick helped Man United get a point at Stamford Bridge and Graham Potter weathered some unusual booing. We also summarise the game's latest bout of shithousery, stretching from Norway to Uruguay.
