This is the Football Daily podcast with Kelly Summers.

Hello, happy Premier League, Eve.

I'm Kelly Summers and welcome to a very special show looking ahead to the new season, which starts tomorrow.

And the good news is Five Live and Sports Extra will bring you more Premier League

commentary than ever before this season with over 200 games. We're going to bring you the

choice of two commentaries at 3pm every Saturday plus the 530 game. Then each Sunday will

bring you all the scheduled 2pm games as well as the big 4.30pm kickoff, which this week is a

small matter of Manchester

United against Arsenal. And each week, I'll also be having some in-depth chats with a mix

of players and managers. That is part of the new football interview show. You'll be able to hear

them every Saturday on the Football Daily Feed on BBC Sounds, and you can also watch it

after Saturday's Match of the Day on BBC One.

And my guest for this first episode is none other than Wayne Rooney.

In this series, I'm more interested in the person behind the player.

And I don't think I've ever heard him speak like he did before.

We were sitting in his home and he gave me a really unique insight into his family life.

He talked about how he relaxes away from football and also told me a fair few things that I'd never heard before. So do listen out for that one. But back to this show, you're going to hear from plenty of the big name players and coaches in the Premier League. We've got Newcastle boss Eddie Howe and one of the most talked about players of the summer, Crystal Palace's Mark Gahey

and that is just to name a few. We're also going to take a look at the clubs that have come up and hear it from Sunderland striker, Wilson Isidore. Pleased to say alongside me to chat about it all is the former Premier League striker, Glenn Murray. Glenn, how's your summer been? It's been good, Kelly, but I'm ready. I'm ready for the Premier League to come back. Super excited for the start tomorrow.

And it feels like it's been a busy summer, this transfer window. A lot's still kind of bubbling under. So it feels like it's quite an intriguing, almost time to start the season because there's a lot of transfers that probably haven't yet happened that are going to happen. Yeah, I expect a lot more activity and it's driving me crazy a little bit trying to pick my FPL team because I know there's so much change ahead. Yes, I know that feeling. You can listen to Ali Bruce Bull, Chris Sutton and the gang, by the way. They've got their FPL pod back on BBC Sound. So do listen to that. But let's not talk about fantasy, Glenn, because we're going to get stressed because there's so many decisions to make in that. Let's kick off this kind of Premier League preview. We're just looking ahead to some of the clubs and hearing from some of the players and managers, as we said. We're going to kick things off with Newcastle. We're going to hear from their manager, Eddie Howe in just a moment. But Glenn, things haven't exactly been smooth in the build-ups this new season, have they?

Of course. We're going to hear from their manager, Eddie Howe in just a moment. But Glenn, things haven't exactly been smooth in the buildups this new season, have they?

Of course, they've missed out on some targets, but mainly because of all of the transfer speculation around their star striker, Alexander Isak.
