Number 1: Fernandes on fire for United as Chelsea show title credentials?
It’s an LA reunion as Jimbo, Tom Williams, Tim Spiers and Felipe Cardenas react to Matchday 2 in the Premier League. Having lost at Hull, Man United went behind to Ipswich at Old Trafford. But then Bruno Fernandes got involved with the first hat-trick of this PL season. Did the Red Devils get lucky with their second goal though? Xabi Alonso’s Chelsea look to be the most entertaining side in the division as they make it two wins out of two by beating Brighton 4-3. Could Palmer, Pedro and co lead a title charge for the Blues? It’s been a record-breaking window but two defeats out of two for Spurs. They lose at home again to resurgent Newcastle. Roberto De Zerbi looks to be getting another new player in the form of Iliman Ndiaye. Andoni Iraola is still awaiting his first Liverpool win but his side come from behind twice again to rescue a point against Forest. And what’s going on at Everton? Ndiaye is out. Richarlison is in.

Number 2: Can Chelsea rock champions Arsenal? Plus Everton’s disastrous window
The craziest transfer window ever has been shut - now it’s time for the football / podcasters to do the talking. Jimbo welcomes Natalie Gedra, Nick Miller and Julien Laurens into the studio ahead of a Premier League weekend headlined by Arsenal against Chelsea. Arteta and Alonso have both managed two victories out of two in very different ways. Which will win out this Sunday? The control of the champions or the chaos of the Blues? Everton host Man United and a mutinous home crowd after a disastrous Deadline Day that leaves them with only 18 outfield players. Could David Moyes walk away? Man City broke records with their expenditure, bringing in Ndiaye and Fernandez on Deadline Day. Do they almost have too much talent for Maresca to handle? Spurs reunite Mykhailo Mudryk with Roberto De Zerbi as they seek a first point or goal of the season away at Forest. Plus Fofana, Fernandez-Pardo, food phobia and a Ballon d’Or winner playing in England.

Number 3: Can Villa do a Villa against Arsenal?
After a stunning Matchday 1, will we see more shocks in the Premier League this weekend? Jimbo’s joined by Duncan Alexander, Tom Williams and Liam Twomey in the studio ahead of Matchday 2. Following that humbling at Brighton last weekend, and more players leaving and arriving, can Villa do what they normally do and bring their best when champions Arsenal turn up to Villa Park? Liverpool welcome Forest to Anfield and also welcome Bradley Barcola to Anfield. Will he be worth the money and how does he fit into Andoni Iraola’s side? Chelsea face Brighton after having an impressive week - beating Fulham with their fancy front three, possibly solving their keeper problem and managing to sell Liam Delap for big money to Forest. Tottenham and Tonali take on Newcastle after more big business in the transfer market. Are Spurs spending too much without human handbrake Daniel Levy in the way? We also discuss Liam’s stag trip to Elland Road, a humiliating night for Celtic and the statistical significance of Man United v Ipswich.

Number 4: Arsenal beat Chelsea to maintain perfect start as Maitland-Niles rescues Everton
It’s a packed studio with Jimbo, Daniel Storey, Adrian Clarke and Matt Davies-Adams in attendance after a stellar Sunday of action. Champions Arsenal went behind early to Morgan Rogers’ Chelsea but the Gunners battled back to make it 3 wins out of 3 in the Premier League this season, along with Manchester City. Dramatic scenes at the Hill Dickinson, where after a week of fan unrest, a Deadline Day signing rescues a point for Everton. Ainsley Maitland-Niles firing a last-minute equaliser against Man United. There are a record three teams that are yet to score a goal this season, namely Coventry, Spurs and Aston Villa who are held by unbeaten Hull. The Tigers the only team yet to concede. Andoni Iraola earned his first win as Liverpool manager against Ipswich on Friday night. Alexander Isak in the goals again for the Reds. And Crystal Palace get their first win under Pierre Sage at Craven Cottage but it’s three defeats out of three for new Fulham manager Alvaro Arbeloa.

Number 5: Kane on his game, Bellingham at his best
The Three Lions are roaring on the Continent, and the Euro team are here to talk about it. The Bundesliga is back and with it comes another potential record-breaking season for Harry Kane at Bayern Munich. The England captain has spoken to Seb Stafford-Bloor, who joins Jimbo, James Horncastle and Tom Williams. Can anyone stop Bayern from a 14th title in 15 seasons? And what’s going on with Elversberg? The Bundesliga debutants shock the nation by beating Bayer Leverkusen in Matchweek 1. Jude Bellingham is doing Jude Bellingham things at Real Madrid, and PSG are making another stuttering start in France. And in Italy, Juventus, Milan and Inter have all won both their opening games, but it’s Fiorentina’s worst ever start to a top-flight season.
