Welcome to the Total Soccer Show and our weekend review.

At the top of the Premier League table, we've been waiting to see who was the first to blink,

and it was Liverpool, whose armour showed a chink, as Tottenham came to Anfield and kicked up a stink.

Elsewhere, the Serie R title race is still great.

Watford met their fate. Barser are back on the big European slate and Man United are an absolute state.

My name is Ryan Bailey. Joining me today as a man who's not nearly as amused by Man United State as I am.

Hello, Taylor Rockwell.

I mean, once you move past abject hatred, you sort of get to numbness, which eventually moves to like just sort of taking pleasure in their pain. So yeah, I think I'm like close to where you are maybe. Good. I mean, Taylor, once again, I'll reiterate that I'm not proud of the Chardon Freud as I feel. But as a child of the 90s, when everyone in my playground had a man in United on them, I didn't grow up anywhere in Manchester, blah, blah, so on, so on. I feel good about it. I'm sorry. So you don't take pride in it, but you're okay with it, is basically what you're saying. I'm a passenger in this Chardon Freud, yes, of some sorts. I just remember the times that I used to say to my wife, then girlfriend, like, I kind of hope they have a few down years because I get tired of being called a glory hunter that, you know, as an American, you get your eyes rolled every time or people roll their eyes every time you say you support Man United. I no longer wish for that. I feel like we've, we've been bad enough for plenty of time. Let's move back to being good. That'd be fun for me.

Nice reference to your ex-girlfriend who became your wife there.

Very good.

Also here, a man who is three points clear in the title race of our hearts, Joseph, Arizona, Joe Lowry.

Hello.

Hello, Ryan.

That was so nice and much nicer than Taylor's, which makes it extra nice and extra good and extra just better. It's good, very good. You're not closeted Man United fan of any kind, are you? Joe, otherwise I can direct some Chardon Foyder at you too. No, no. I genuinely much enjoy watching Brighton over Manchester United. So that did kind of work out for me this weekend. Yeah, more on that very, very shortly indeed. But rounding out our pack is a man who is thrilled, thrilled, I say, about the idea of Erling Harlan returning to his native Northwest England. I hate this intro. I hate this introduction. Because he loves to see young English talent thrive. Graham Rutherman, hello. It's too late. You can't, you can't claim him. He's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, that's already happen. I mean, English football is doomed if, uh, haland goes to city, which now looks very likely given the reporting. I'm not quite sure the Premier League knows what it's, it's in for. In my football manager 22 save, and it's

my latest save, Erling Hallen goes to City, and in his first season, he scored 65 Premier League

goals. So that does not bode well for the rest of the Premier League. So hang on, Graham, we got a

pup there a second. You watch 17 games per weekend you watch every movie going you've

seen all the apple tv tv shows as well when are you playing football manager as well goodness me

i went to a wedding over the weekend too did you bring your laptop i did actually yeah and everyone

mocked me for it grand might it be this was your second wedding, right?

This, I mean, to clarify, it wasn't my wedding, yeah, I was a guest at someone else's wedding, but yes, I've only been to two weddings, now in one of them was my own.

And might we see the reason for that being that you bring a laptop to watch football while you are at the nuptials?
