Pete's under the weather. Jacob drove to the wrong town this week and is not fully recovered. The World Cup is done. The transfer window is about to explode. Perfect conditions for a Friday therapy session.

Here's what's inside:

🔥 Hottest of Takes — Jacob has had a slap and got himself on the Morgan Rogers train. He explains the comparison that finally convinced him and it's a good one. Pete has lingering concerns about a bad touch statistic that's been haunting him all summer

💸 The Rogers Debate — Settled? — a deep dive into what Rogers actually does, why Emery's system may have flattered him, and whether Arteta can get even more out of him. Jacob's Premier League Dembélé framing is the line of the pod

😤 Bruno G — Is It Slipping Away? — the Newcastle situation, the price movement, the agent history. Pete and Jacob go through why this one feels harder than it did a month ago and what the alternatives look like

🌍 World Cup Debrief — the highlights, the lowlights, and a proper honest conversation about England vs Argentina. Jacob goes after Kane and Jed Spence. Pete defends Tuchel and makes the case that Declan Rice and Saka being half-fit cost England a final

🗑️ Get Rid Of The Carabao Cup — Pete's closing argument, and it's Arsenal-adjacent. Nobody is disagreeing
