Content creator. Artist. Football presenter. Lacrosse playmaker. All phrases that can be used to describe the next Ultimate XI manager to make their selections, and this is truly a one-of-a-kind episode as the hilarious Laura Kirk-Francis brings her own comedy style and personal taste to her Arsenal squad. Not so concerned with tactics, balance or even really footballing prowess, this side will go down in history as one of the most beautiful to ever grace a football pitch... if they can drag themselves away from looking at their reflections in the mirror.

Jim Daly is perhaps the quintessential Ultimate XI manager - expert football knowledge, the wry wit of a fan coupled with a razor sharp comedian's brain, and packaged up into a broadcast and podcast legend; all this melds to create a beautiful side and give Crystal Palace fans another incredible achievement to celebrate this year. Parts of the comedian's team are pure poetry, full of guile and grace, but also balancing the South London club's tradition for grit and endeavour. Not bad for a manager who took 15 minutes to pick a goalkeeper...

Paul Longley, social media comedy royalty, brings us his well thought out Chelsea Ultimate XI - an absolute goldmine for the late 90s/early 00s Premier League aficionados amongst us. Paul's stories of who he picks and why are laced with memorable moments, familial ties and that deep-rooted need that all football fans have to show off their knowledge of obscure players. A timeless side, a very excited manager and a one-of-a-kind piece of Chelsea merchandise all make for an Ultimate XI of the highest order.

Just one of the all-time great UK comedians delivering an absolute belter of an Ultimate XI - jack of all trades, master of all trades Stuart Laws fights Ange for the top job at Spurs, and the ease with which he picks an attacking and classy side will come as no surprise to fans of his comedy. Listen as he delivers a tactically sound and balanced line up featuring the shining lights of Spurs' Premier League history - Stuart aims not just to rival the numerous THFC Ultimate XIs we've had on the podcast, but to beat them outright... and I'd have to say his team does just that.

What do you get if you cross an Italian with a Geordie and then force them to pick their favourite ever players for their beloved Newcastle United? Why, it's this magnificent episode of course! Emil Franchi, radio broadcaster extraordinaire, has managed to overcome his hangover from the Carabao Cup Final and put his manager hat on to pick his all-time Magpies team. Players from the club's trophy-winning side blend seamlessly with cult heroes, Championship legends and names from Newcastle's "almost" years. And one thing is for certain, the Ultimate XI that Emil has put his heart and soul into would not have to wait another 70 years for silverware.

It's been a long time coming, but finally a fellow Saints fan joins me on the podcast to pick their all-time Southampton XI. Tom Deacon - comedian, DJ, presenter - was brave enough during this, arguably the worst season in Saints' history, to reminisce about the days when St Mary's and The Dell used to be full of hope and pride, determination, underdog spirit and, perhaps most importantly, points. Misty eyed we most certainly are in this episode, but rightly so when you hear some of the names that have graced our South Coast club over the years. It may be difficult to think of a positive future, but with the past players that Saints have had over the years, there's still a lot to be proud of - and Tom's Ultimate XI showcases that excellently.

Back with a bang after the Christmas break, we've got radio presenter and Rock 'N' Roll Football co-host Matt Dyson. As our first Nottingham Forest fan on the podcast, Matt took the opportunity to immortalise many of the current NFFC squad who are flying high in the Premier League at this moment in time; however the balance he achieves by partnering them with some of Forest's past heroes is truly masterful and a pleasure to witness. As a vocal proponent of exciting, high-energy football and music, often being played at the same time, Matt's electric City Ground side is one for the ages and reminds us all why Forest should be considered amongst English football's most lovable clubs.

It's the countdown to Christmas, and the managerial merry-go-round is in full swing. A great thing for Ultimate XI fans, as it means in this episode Chris "Woody" Wood gets the top job at Plymouth Argyle, and the Devon native drummer from indie pop royalty Bastille is not phased by the task. Despite the familial tensions it has brought about, naming his Pilgrims Ultimate XI seems to be quite cathartic for Woody. Demons were exercised, illegal behaviour was admitted and ruthless decisions were made, ultimately leading to the man who is one half of the brilliant Away Days podcast giving us his authentic and honest take on what it means to be an Argyle fan.

Will Gamble is normally the one asking the questions as he interrogates musicians and bands worldwide, but this time the shoe was on the other foot as I asked Will to pick his all-time favourite Chelsea players. Living close to Stamford Bridge and being a regular visitor there with his family, Will witnessed first hand the almost overnight Premier League powerhouse that Chelsea became just after the turn of the century, but as his selections prove it wasn't always plain sailing. With some names that won it all, and some that just missed out either through bad luck or their own self-inflicted demise, this is certainly a team full of the characters and the skill that summed up that Blues era.
