VAR-U Serious

With Cecil Jee on the other side of the world in Uganda, we asked him to go through his favourite bits from the last twenty episodes of VAR U Serious, and there were some serious throbacks in there.

Everything from rants about umbrellas, vapes and the unsuspecting George Ezra, as well as fantasy XIs including Marvel characters and one incredibly un-pc team made up of Louis Beneventi's favourite Villains! 

We also looked back at a fascinating chat between Cecil, Jordon Brown and Anton Ferdinand about being a young footballer and how much it has changed! 

This week Cecil Jee is joined by Manchester City fan Kim Kothari to discuss the enormous game at the Etihad yesterday afternoon! The pair discuss seeing each other in the stands as City took one huge stride to take the title of Arsenal- are they really going to bottle it again? 

Kim also gave the lowdown from an evening with Patrick Vieira this weekend- who told him he massively regrets leaving the City Football Group! 

Cecil finally cracked a smile when they moved onto Spurs, who are looking down the barrel of relegation after a last gasp equalizer from Brighton denied them all three points.

The lads finished the show with some Psychic Commentary- as they tried to predict this weekend's football.

Cecil Jee was joined by Brighton fan and SportBible presenter Ben Spalding to discuss Arsenal's impending bottle! 

On a week where Arsenal stumbled and Manchester City battered Chelsea, Cecil admitted that he thinks Arsenal will end the season trophyless once more, piling pressure on Mikel Arteta.

The lads also discussed the World Cup and whether Danny Welbeck should be in the squad, both agreeing that he is the next best striker behind Harry Kane.

They finished the show with their rants of the week, where Ben took aim at George Ezra in an unfiltered rant about the singer. 

This week Cecil Jee is joined by Maz Mirzadeh to discuss all things international break, Arsenal players leaving England camp, the disastrous reign of Idor Tudor, and Usain Bolt's party house.

As the news broke that Tottenham Hotspur had sent a five-year contract offer to Roberto De Zerbi, Cecil and Maz discussed the terrible 39 day stint of Igor Tudor, and whether De Zerbi was the man to keep Spurs from going down.

Maz then went two-footed at the ELEVEN Arsenal players who left international duty due to a less than convincing "injury crisis"! 

The lads also discussed their best ever interviews and Maz gives a little exclusive on what it was like to film at Usain Bolt's house in Jamaica... Safe to say, some interesting things go down in that house. 

Host and former footballer Cecil Jee was joined by comedian and Man United fan, Ali Woods. Ali tried to lighten the mood after Cecil's beloved Arsenal were beaten at Wembley by Man City. 

The lads discussed Spurs fans' attempt to help the team, and the very real possibility that the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium could be hosting Championship football next season. 

Ali also gave the lowdown on his worst ever gigs and being loudly booed off stage after being accused of lying! 

Host and former footballer Cecil Jee was joined by beach footballer and social media sensation Sara Catriona for another chaotic episode packed with football debate, Max Dowman chat and one serious wizzardly team selection.

They discussed Max Dowman’s incredible performance against Everton and Arsenal’s surge forward to the Premier League title. They also discuss the question on everyone’s lips, Pep Guardiola lost his touch?

The guys then tried to pick their Harry Potter XI and the age old question was discussed, does Neville have a Longbottom?

This week it might just be Elvis pulling the strings.

Host and former footballer Cecil Jee was joined by Chelsea fan Louis Beneventi for another chaotic episode packed with football debate, FA Cup chat and one very confused team selection.

The lads discussed Chelsea’s less-than-convincing performance in the FA Cup, with Louis admitting he wasn’t exactly blown away by the Blues as they scraped their way into the next round. Are Chelsea actually building momentum, or are fans still waiting to be properly impressed?

Things then went completely off the rails when Cecil somehow managed to confuse a Musical XI with a Criminal XI, by picking musicals with a fairly fruity past. 

Somewhere between Elvis Presley dictating play in midfield and the rest of the team sheet descending into chaos, the lads tried to work out which musicians would actually make the best footballers.

This week, host and former footballer Cecil Jee was joined by Kim Kothari for more nonsensical football related chatter. 

After a seagull was brought back to life after being hit with a ball in Turkey, the pair debate whether seagulls actually deserve saving, please do not listen if you are a member of the RSPCA. The pair unpacked the curious epidemic of punctured Lime bikes popping up across London, and asked some very serious questions about modern society along the way.

To finish, they built their Superhero Strike Partnership XI headlined by Hulk and Ant-Man. and tackled the big question: is that the new Crouch and Defoe?

This week, host and former footballer Cecil Jee was joined by internet football royalty, Dev Bajwa!

The boys kicked things off with the fallout from the North London Derby, where Cecil turned up with his special red-tinted glasses on, just to rub more salt in the wounds of poor Spurs fans. 

Fair warning to anyone who vapes, Dev didn’t hold back, going full-on two-footed in a rant about vapers that came out of nowhere.

In Ref for the Day, the lads debated whether Real Madrid could beat Mansfield Town U18s… if VAR decisions were controlled entirely by Mansfield fans.

And to round things off, Cecil and Dev selected their ultimate Nostalgic TV XI, and the big question: are Kenan & Kel the greatest centre-back partnership football never had?

This week, host and former footballer Cecil Jee was joined by die-hard Manchester United fan and Head of United District Dylan Penketh to discuss FA Cup, Man United and Michael Carrick. 

The big question: Does Michael Carrick deserve the full-time job at Manchester United? The lads debated whether Carrick is the long-term solution at Old Trafford, what he’s changed tactically, and whether United fans need patience or a superstar appointment.

They also tackled a bigger footballing dilemma: has the FA Cup lost its magic? Is modern football killing tradition, or are we just being nostalgic?

Then things got ridiculous.

Dylan attempted to level the playing field between Real Madrid and Wigan Athletic U18s… and let’s just say it didn’t go smoothly. To finish, Cecil and Dylan built their ultimate Alcoholic Beverages XI and there was a clear winner!
