Daniel and Have Hope discuss Chelsea 1-1 Manchester United. Graham Potter made an early (but correct) tactical change at the expense of Marc Cucurella. How many items of clothes are too many to take off if you're Matteo Kovacic? Cristiano Ronaldo is back in training with his teammates. Victor Osimhen's stunning strike beats Roma, but it reminds Have Hope that Nigeria aren't at the World Cup. In the second half, should Iran be banned from the World Cup - and if so, should they be replaced by Ukraine. If a precedent were set of removing nations who've committed human rights violations or sold weapons of war to others, who else should FIFA remove? Lastly, would it not be advantageous to offer Iranian players a platform to help lift the voices of Iranian women in their country, given the size and scale of the World Cup?

Daniel and Have Hope discuss reports Kylian Mbappé wants to leave Paris Saint-Germain. Does it make sense? What club(s) should try for Mbappé if indeed he wants to leave Paris? Arsenal are top of the Premier League, are they for real? Liverpool don't look good at all. Is it Fenway Sports Group's fault, or is Jurgen Klopp to blame for his management style. Chelsea played well against Wolverhampton, but the story of the day is whether the Blues can afford to let N'Golo Kanté leave, and what role the French midfielder should play moving forward in his career.

Daniel is joined by Muhammad Butt (freelance writer, formerly Squawka) to discuss his dual loyalties of Barcelona and Manchester United. The weekend's Manchester Derby, and how Manchester City are a built in Guardiola's image. Could we have foreseen Haaland's start, and what does he add to City's playmaking ability? Martial is the glue in Manchester United's attack when compared to Cristiano and Rashford. Casemiro benched. Chelsea steal two points at Crystal Palace. Arsenal are atop the Premier League, but light in midfield. And we take your questions about Liverpool's midfield, being the GOAT, and revising Bundesliga tax amongst others.
