Wow. Just wow. Troy Parrott takes the headlines once again!

Musa and Ryan chat about his amazing hat-trick in Budapest to take Ireland to the playoffs for the 2026 World Cup, ahead of Hungary. They also chat about DR Congo’s penalty shootout win, which saw them qualify and means Nigeria will miss the tournament once more.

Then, it’s onto England’s perfect qualifying campaign (16:04), plus a discussion about the weird discourse that continues to surround Jude Bellingham (21:22), a defence for a player that should be celebrated and reasons why an England qualifying campaign isn’t allowed to be routine and calm.

There’s also a wrap up and shout outs of the WSL, NWSL, Barcelona’s win over Real Madrid and more (36:26).

We're now less than three weeks away from our first live show at the Southbank Centre in London. So, if you haven't already, please go get your tickets here!

It was a rollercoaster weekend in the Premier League, with many clubs being thrown from joy one minute to despair the next.

Musa and Ryan focus on Manchester City’s 3-0 over Liverpool (03:30), which saw another goal for Erling Haaland and arguably Jeremy Doku’s best performance in a City shirt so far. For Liverpool, it was another day to forget and there’s yet more to ponder for Arne Slot during this men's international break. 

Sunderland did what no side has done this season, by scoring two against Arsenal at the Stadium of Light (21:38), there was late drama at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium and more great wins for Villa, West Ham, Brentford and Everton. There's also chat about Pep Guardiola, after he reached 1000 games as a manager this weekend.

All the non-Premier League stuff will be on the midweek show, up Wednesday for members, and for any London listeners, don't forget to get tickets for our first live show at the Southbank Centre here.

Goals, red cards and spiritual onsides! Musa and Ryan begin with Real Madrid’s 2-1 win over Barcelona at the Bernabéu, in the first Clásico of the season (02:00) and Xabi Alonso’s first as a manager. It opened up a five point gap at the top of La Liga, as Villarreal closed the gap on Barça in third.

It was a wild Premier League weekend too (26:03), as Bournemouth went second, Sunderland went fourth, Liverpool lost again, Villa continued their good run and Arsenal increased their lead at the top. Finally, there’s a quick shout out for the top of Serie A (41:39), although this was recorded before the news that Juventus had sacked Igor Tudor, so that’ll have to wait for Wednesday’s show and, finally, a quick shout for the Bundesliga.
