Summary

Dharmesh Sheth is joined by Jonathan Liew, Martin Samuel and Dan Kilpatrick to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.

We begin with Forest’s sacking of Ange Postecoglou.  Jonathan refers to his tenure as a disaster from start to finish, but does Ange have a future in the Premier League?

Next, we look to Liverpool v Manchester United. Jonathan believes a direct approach, using longballs, is the best method to expose Liverpool’s defensive frailties and Dan suggests we’re seeing a transition in Slot’s side that was expected last season.

We then turn to the title race and Arsenal’s away win at Craven Cottage; Jonathan is confident that Arsenal win the title this season, calling the set-piece winning goal “brutally efficient” and Martin compares this Arsenal to George Graham’s league-winning side.

We also look at Erling Haaland’s incredible goalscoring record, with two goals in five minutes against Everton, and ask the question whether Manchester City are a little too reliant on the outstanding Norwegian this season?

Finally, we look at talk of a “Beckham Bid” for Manchester United.  Approached by UAE billionaires, David Beckham may be the face of a £5billion takeover bid.  And whilst comparing both Man United and Liverpool’s models, we ask which is the bigger club?

Running Order:
3mins – Ange Sacked
24mins – Liverpool v Man Utd
39mins – Title Race Chat
46mins – Haaland’s Goals
52mins – Man United Beckham Bid
