The show kicks off with Manchester United’s crisis under Ruben Amorim. Is it the system or the players that’s the real issue? Theo goes in on how the manager is holding back talent — including his strong take that Luke Shaw is one of the best left-backs he’s ever faced. Taylor later unleashes a full-on Amorim rant of his own.

From there, attention turns to Erling Haaland, with the panel debating whether he’s making a statement as the best striker in the world. But is Alexander Isak actually giving him a run for his money?

Liverpool’s late winners are next on the agenda, with Taylor dismissing the idea of “luck” and comparing them to Fergie Time. Plus, Slot’s clever Kerkez substitution gets the spotlight.

Elsewhere, Taylor sparks a surprise conversation about Aston Villa, warning that a relegation battle isn’t out of the question 👀

The Champions League’s new league format gets a deep dive: is it actually a good idea? And which English club is best placed to win it all — with Theo backing Arsenal as the favorites.

Across the pond, the crew touch on MLS, from Dean Smith’s viral Poznan celebration with Charlotte FC to Thomas Muller's hat-trick and their chances in the playoffs.
