About this episode
Sometimes as a manager you have to take the opportunity to do a quick victory lap. On Saturday evening at the G-Tech, Arne Slot felt the time was right. Darwin Nunez in his occasional thrilling moments of success can have that intoxicating effect on people.
We also talk about a weekend of heartbreak for Arsenal, hear about Jose Mourinho's latest commercial venture and catch up on FIFA president "Johnny" who has joined the thousands of pilgrims making their way to Washington today to kiss the feet of the god emperor.
Mark Critchley and Nick Ames join us to talk about the weekend's football. What is Ruben Amorim hoping to achieve by describing his team as possibly the worst in the history of Manchester United? How is it that Brighton can keep regenerating into new forms with different players and coaches and still maintain such a consistent level? And has the Arsenal board's thinking around Arsenal's squad strength changed in line with Mikel Arteta's shifting rhetoric?
