Jimbo welcomes Carl Anka, Charlie Eccleshare, Adrian Clarke and Megan Feringa into the pod with big headlines being made on and off the pitch.

The heroics of Ann-Katrin Berger somehow send Germany through to a Euro 2025 semi-final with Spain. Will it be England awaiting in the final with Sarina’s side big favourites ahead of their semi with Italy?

Marcus Rashford is Barcelona-bound as the Catalan club agree to take him and his wages for next season. What now for the rest of the bomb squad at Man United? And how do you pronounce Mbeumo?

Liverpool are closing in on the signing of Hugo Ekitike and are maybe still interested in Alexander Isak. Plus Noni Madueke is an Arsenal player and Evan Ferguson is off to Rome.

Plus we look back at David Platt’s move to Serie A and forward to the present-day race for the Scudetto.

England battle from 2-0 down to eventually overcome Sweden after an epic and awful penalty shootout. Sarina did it again with her subs - is a Spain v England final now inevitable?

The transfer merry-go-round is spinning fast with Liverpool showing interest in Alexander Isak but eventually plumping for Magpies target Hugo Ekitike. Plus it looks like being a bleak summer at Brentford and an interesting one at Swansea.

Back in the summer of 2020, Jimbo and co passed the time reviewing classic Premier League and Champions League campaigns.

Here from the vault, we bring you the thoughts of James Horncastle, Sasha Goryunov and Alvaro Romeo on the 2004/05 season, the one with the greatest final in the competition’s history.

In Rafa Benitez’s first season in charge of Liverpool, the Reds finished level on points with Bolton and won the Champions League in Istanbul.

For Carlo Ancelotti’s Milan, it was the second incredible collapse in two seasons. And for Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea, who produced an all-time classic with Barcelona, it looked like the trophy was theirs. Until a ghost goal.

Jimbo has Daniel Storey, Seb Stafford-Bloor, Tim Spiers and Liam Twomey for company after a shock result in New Jersey.

Chelsea are crowned world champions with a 3-0 victory over PSG in the Club World Cup final. How did they do it? How good is Enzo Maresca? And can they challenge for the Premier League title?

England are through to the quarter-finals of the Women’s Euros after a 6-1 demolition of Wales. But even though they were runners up, have they ended up on the good side of the draw?

Where Crystal Palace end up is a big debate right now as UEFA demote them from the Europa League to the Conference League for breaching multi-club ownership rules. Are the Eagles victims of their own naivety?

And there’s some big transfers going on in the Premier League. Gyökeres to Arsenal, Henderson to Brentford and who’s that masquerading as Daniel Levy in North London?

Jimbo, James Horncastle, Natalie Gedra and Tom Williams are in the studio after some sensational football played on Wednesday.

PSG add Real Madrid to their recent list of toppled titans with a 4-0 win to set up a meeting with Chelsea in the Club World Cup final. When did we last see a team as good as Luis Enrique’s side and what can Enzo Maresca do to stop them?

The Lionesses come roaring back with a 4-0 win over Netherlands to boost their hopes of a quarter-final place at Euro 2025. Charlotte Harpur has more from Zurich.

In the transfer market, plenty of Arsenal fans are unhappy that they might be signing another Chelsea player while we try to explain why the big guns don’t want Victor Osimhen.

Jimbo has Daniel Storey, Adrian Clarke and Tim Spiers for company in a big week across multiple competitions.

The Club World Cup reaches the semi-final stage with Chelsea taking on Fluminense and PSG up against Mbappe’s Real Madrid. Has Enzo Maresca stumbled upon a more counterattacking style at Stamford Bridge? And can Guler and Garcia continue their superb form for Los Blancos?

Speaking of superb, Spain are through to the quarter-finals of the Women’s Euros in some style. But England’s status hangs in the balance after their defeat to France. Are the players fit enough? And are some there on reputation?

Mexico are Gold Cup winners again, overcoming the USA. Felipe Cardenas joins us to discuss the state of the World Cup co-hosts and 16-year-old prodigy Gilberto Mora.

Back in the summer of 2020, Jimbo and co passed the time reviewing classic Premier League campaigns.

Here from the vault, we bring you the thoughts of Michael Cox, Daniel Storey and Matt Davies-Adams on that time where Arsenal went the whole season unbeaten. You may have heard of it.

It was the arrival of Roman Abramovich at Chelsea that shook English football to its core with unprecedented levels of spending in the summer of 2003. But Arsene Wenger’s Gunners were the team that made history and lifted the title. And all on ITV.

The unbeaten record could have gone early in the campaign as Ruud van Nistelrooy lined up to take a penalty at Old Trafford…

Elsewhere, it’s a season that will be remembered for Leeds’ relegation, Ronaldo's debut and the most Spursy game ever.

It’s Jimbo, Daniel Storey, Seb Stafford-Bloor and Adrian Clarke after a jam-packed weekend of summer football.

Shocks aplenty in the last 16 of the Club World Cup with Inter knocked out by Fluminense and holders Manchester City beaten 4-3 by Al-Hilal. We hail the impact of Inzaghi and ask if there’s a blueprint on how to beat City.

Chelsea are now flying the flag for England and have added Joao Pedro to their ranks. But it’s the weather that dominates discussion over their victory against Benfica.

England Under 21s retain the Euros, beating Germany in the final, as Lee Carsley continues to build his legacy and reputation.

Back in the summer of 2020, Jimbo and co passed the time reviewing classic Premier League campaigns.

Here from the vault, we bring you the thoughts of Michael Cox, Daniel Storey and Matt Davies-Adams on the 1998/99 season, when there were many twists and turns but one team won it all.

It was the best season ever to be a Man United fan with Sir Alex Ferguson's side taken right down to the wire but winning the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League. But what else about 98/99 have you forgotten?

Di Canio shoving a referee? Liverpool having joint managers? West Ham finishing 5th?
