This football podcast is back with a busy midweek episode. The host is joined by a three-person panel, and the main talking point is Manchester United's Champions League defeat away to Atlético Madrid, a result that extends the club's poor start to the season.
The panel picks over the loss in detail. They discuss Lisandro Martínez's outspoken criticism of the people running the club after the match, and argue that United were not terrible on the night. Big chances went begging for Bryan Mbeumo and Marcus Rashford at crucial moments, and Lenny Yoro's red card, which came after a VAR intervention, may have been a little harsh. The episode also considers what it all means for Michael Carrick.
Arsenal get a more positive review. The team's depth was on show again against Lille, where three substitutes turned the game and made the win comfortable. The panel also runs through other European results, including Inter losing at home to Club Brugge, Viking holding Bayern to a draw and an impressive Barcelona display at Galatasaray.
The show also revisits Monday's game, in which Coventry beat Newcastle 4-1. A former Manchester City player on the panel is asked how he feels about leaving the club just before its trophy-winning era, and the episode wraps up with listener questions.
