This week on Mecca of Banter, the lads dive into one of the most chaotic football weekends of the season. From Manchester United getting humbled by Everton, to the North London Derby fireworks, to another confusing week of Spurs tactical madness, nothing is off-limits.

We break down why United look miles off it, whether Arsenal just sent another message in the title race, and why Ange’s decisions have Spurs fans losing their minds. The USMNT get some love after an encouraging international window, and we touch on the MLS playoffs, where Inter Miami continue looking dangerous even without Messi.

It’s honest, emotional, occasionally delusional football talk—exactly how the game should be discussed. Grab your kit, grab your coffee, and enjoy the banter.
