Hello, this is international football commentator Derek Ray, and you're listening to the Ranks

FC podcast. Hello, R Rank Squad and welcome to Ranks FC. It's the world's best transatlantic football podcast coming at you from London and San Diego respectively. My name's Jack Collins and I'll be your host today and And joining me across the water, Mr. Zine Jones.

How you doing, mate?

Yeah, I'm very good.

A bit annoyed that we've got another international break upon us.

I really can't get into the flow of the season when this keeps happening.

You're going to walk us through a few in the Premier League.

But I think it feels only right to start this episode with Eric Ten Haag.

Now, I don't want to go into this in too much detail because

I think we'd probably be pretty aligned in terms of where we are on this. And also,

Dougie and Sam on The Truth did an episode about whether Eric Ten Hogg's sacking was inevitable.
