Shauyan and Maxwell discuss Arsenal's great run of form recently in the Premier League beating Tottenham, Aston Villa, and Leicester City to push them to 6th place in the standings. Then if we could see Arsenal be a surprise team to push for a top-four spot this season, seeing them get back into Champions League football for the first since 2016/17. Then we discuss Manchester United's terrible performance against Atalanta mid-week which took a late Cristiano Ronaldo goal to rescue them a tie in Italy. Then finishing up discussing PSG's poor performances this season under Mauricio Pochettino where we feel PSG has been awful tactically and think they need to sack Mauricio Pochettino to bring in former Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane to replace him.

Shauyan and Maxwell discuss Manchester United's recent fixtures against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium where we saw Manchester United lose 4-2 and comeback in the UEFA Champions League midweek against Serie A side Atalanta where they made a late comeback from 2 goals down to win 3-2 from a late Cristiano Ronaldo header to win the match. These recent performances have put Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer under a lot of pressure to keep his job. Manchester United has been heavily reliant on individual performances to save them in matches. We discuss if Ole Gunnar Solskjaer should be sacked because of how poorly Manchester United has been performing. Mohamed Salah has been the player catching all the headlines recently with amazing performances for Liverpool this season. We discuss if he is the best player in the world right now and if not him then we who is. That leads us to give out our opinions on who should win this year's Ballon d'Or between Lionel Messi of PSG, Robert Lewandowski of Bayern Munich, and Jorginho of Chelsea FC. We wrap up today's episode by briefly discussing the Newcastle take over and who should replace Steve Bruce as head coach of Newcastle United.

Shauyan and Maxwell discuss Asia and Concacaf World Cup qualifiers. We did give a quick mention to Germany and Denmark for being the first two nations to qualify for the 2022 World Cup. In Asia's World Cup qualification we discussed Vietnam's horrible campaign so far in World Cup qualification with four losses, Japan's disappointing start which seems them outside the top two spots of automatic qualification, and Saudi Arabia's amazing qualification with four wins out of four. We wrap up by discussing Concacaf World Cup qualifying which sees Mexico, USA, and Canada in the top three spots looking like the three nations to automatically qualify.
