Ryan Bailey, Taylor Rockwell and Graham Ruthven convene to discuss some of the biggest games of the weekend, while taking a moment to reflect on the business that got did in the January transfer window. 

0.00 - Arsenal vs. Manchester Utd: Yes, this was another stalemate from the Premier League Big Six. But there were plenty of positives to be drawn for both sides. Honestly, there were!

33.02 - Palmeiras vs. Santos: In a sweltering and not-very-socially-distanced Maracana, Palmeiras triumphed in their second-ever Copa Libertadores victory. But the wild action only really got going in injury time…

53.14 - Transfer Window Review: It has been a relatively quiet window, but there have been some significant moves. We look at the best, the worst, and the players you forgot existed!

Ryan Bailey, Taylor Rockwell and Graham Ruthven are discuss the weekend that was in world soccer!

0.00 - Frank Lampard is sacked: Will the Chelsea manager be able to get another top-flight job? How will new appointee Thomas Tuchel fare? 

10.46 - Manchester United vs. Liverpool: In a much more lively affair than their most recent encounter, United were victors with a late Bruno Fernandes free kick winner. We look at the tactical decisions that won it for the Red Devis, and Jurgen Klopp’s squad issues. 

29.51 - Milan vs. Atalanta: Serie A leaders Milan were humbled by their Lombardy neighbors, whose press proved too much at the San Siro.

41.14 - Schalke vs. Bayern Munich: All the other Bundesliga title challengers lost this weekend, while Bayern picked up three points at the league’s worst team. So yeah, they’ve won the title again. 

54.55 - Alaves vs. Real Madrid: Zinedine Zidane was absent from the sidelines for Real Madrid’s best performance of the season. Luka Modric was in exceptional form, as was a young man named Eden Hazard.
