| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to the two Robbie's podcast, your destination for in-depth discussion and analysis of the Premier League. I'm Robbie Musto. He's Robbie Earl and here are today's topics. |
| 0:24.1 | Tottenham Hotspurs Thomas Frank Eera starts off strong. |
| 0:27.8 | After they secure a 2-0-away win against a poor Manchester City. |
| 0:31.8 | Arsenal smashed five past Leeds United on the day. |
| 0:34.4 | They unveil a Bercher Eza but face major concerns after Martin Odegaard and Bakayu Saka suffer injuries. |
| 0:41.6 | Manchester United are unable to capitalize on their strong opening weekend performance and splutter in a 1-1 draw at Fulham and Everton begin life in their gorgeous brand new stadium with a massive 2-0 win against Brighton. |
