Summary

Sam Tighe, Dean Jones and host Jack Collins are joined by former England International and double Premier League winner Joleon Lescott, who sits down with the gang to talk about the players he used to play FIFA with, including stories about Wayne Rooney and his rage quits, Daniel Sturridge's skill moves and how Shaun Wright-Phillips won't play with him any more! Hot Takes include a discussion as to whether Liverpool are blowing the title race, a lowdown on teen sensation Efrain Alvarez and the tug-of-war between the US and Mexico for his allegiance, and we answer your question: what Real Madrid need to do to compete domestically again. Bleacher Roulette returns with questions about why Arsenal have dropped off from their fast start, which footballers we'd be inviting on our bachelor parties, and what formations we'd be looking to use if we were managers.
