Summary
JJ Bull, Seb Stafford-Bloor and Jon Mackenzie are joined by special guest Tim Spiers from The Athletic to have a little chat about the football.
Did Newcastle set out a blueprint for teams to stifle Man City in their 3-3 draw at St James Park? Or do they just have Alain Saint-Maximin…
Leeds pressed Chelsea so much that they cracked in a 3-0 defeat at Elland Road.
We have a substantial splash into Serie A to talk about who may seize this season’s Scudetto.
PSG pumped Lille 7-1 and are looking really, really good under Christophe Galtier.
