What a week! Myles and Dave recap the best of the bunch after a mad Premier League weekend. Starting at Old Trafford, where a bald head in the dugout prevailed - and it wasn't Erik ten Hag. Nope, it was Arne Slot who steered Liverpool to a dominant 3-0 win over Manchester United. The lads pick through the aftermath of a very different start to the season for both clubs. Likewise, Everton are also flailing already after relinquishing a 2-0 lead at the 87 minute mark, only to lose 3-2 to Bournemouth. Can Sean Dyche galvanise his players to avoid another relegation battle?

Mike and Dave analyse a fascinating 2-0 win for Arsenal over Aston Villa, putting to bed any doubts that they were the Gunners' bogey team. But it could've been so much different had Ollie Watkins not lost his head in front of goal - and if David Raya hadn't pulled off a world class save! We look at what both teams will take from the game. Chelsea suddenly became their prolific best in a 6-2 away win over Wolves, thanks to a hat-trick from Noni Madueke, with all 3 assisted by Cole Palmer. With new/old boy Joao Felix also on the score sheet and even Nicholas Jackson grabbing a goal, have we seen the start of some consistency in the team from Enzo Maresca? Nottingham Forest beat Southampton to move into 5th, but how can they improve? And also Manchester United lose 2-1 to Brighton thanks to some suicidal defending in the 95th minute. Can new boy Manuel Ugarte add some much-needed energy and steel to United? And what of Brighton under Fabian Hurzeler? And finally, we pay tribute to the late Sven-Goran Eriksson, who sadly passed away this week. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

After Jhon Duran gave Aston Villa a 2-1 win over West Ham of all teams, are Villa fans now forgiving and forgetting his flirtation with the Hammers? And how did the new boys Onana and Maatsen perform? Brilliant Brighton thumped sorry Everton 3-0 in the first game of the Fabian Hurzeler era, with Sean Dyche's Toffees giving plenty of cause for concern. We also talk Arsenal's win and Mosquera's questionable antics, an unhappy Chelsea camp, and clinical Man City. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Euro 2024 is HERE! Mike, Myles and Dave analyse the best of the action from the opening weekend of European Championship action in Germany. England got off to a winning start with Jude Bellingham pulling the strings in a 1-0 win over Serbia. The win's been received pretty negatively in some quarters for not being ambitious enough in the second half. The lads give their take on what worked - and what didn't - for the Three Lions. We also look at Germany's 5-1 trouncing of sorry Scotland, with Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz showing why they're the future of Die Mannschaft. And impressive opening wins for Spain and Italy beg the question of just how far each team can progress. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We're nearing the end of a gruelling Premier League season and it really is survival of the fittest! Tottenham are finding themselves falling away from the top 4, their 4-2 defeat at Liverpool their 4th in a row in the league. Mike and Dave ask - what is happening to Spurs??

Arsenal negotiated their trickiest test yet in the title run-in with a vital victory in the North London Derby. Mike, Myles and Dave look at how they held firm despite Tottenham almost coming back into the game, and their title hopes for the remaining games. Tottenham's defeat hands the advantage to Aston Villa, who drew 2-2 with Chelsea despite going 2-0 up. The loss of Emi Martinez to injury made all the difference, and the lads ponder whether Robin Olsen really can step up? Newcastle's 5-1 win over Sheffield United relegated the Blades, but the Toon's impressive recent form has got us asking about their prosopects once again. And at the bottom, who else can join Everton in safety; Burnley, Luton or Nottingham Forest? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Join Myles and Dave for another epic English football weekend. The main headline being Coventry City, who so nearly produced the comeback of the season in one of the games of the season. They pulled Manchester Untied back from 3-0 down to 3-3, taking the game to penalties and ALMOST achieving the mother of all comebacks. The lads analyse how Coventry almost did it, and why it feels like a hollow win for United. They face Man City in the Final again, who laboured to a win over wasteful Chelsea. And in the Premier League, Aston Villa carried their impressive European form into the weekend with a dominant, Ollie Watkins-inspired win over Bournemouth. While Nottingham Forest controversially lost to Everton with some questionable decisions, then taking to X to tweet their anger at the FA! The lads ponder whether they crossed the line in pretty much accusing them of corruption. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Elsewhere, Liverpool lost to Crystal Palace and Tottenham lost to an Aleksander Isak-inspired Newcastle 4-0.

Mike and Dave hail the heroic Hatters, as Luton grab a late, much-needed 2-1 win over Bournemouth with a superb 2nd-half fight back. As we reach the final stretch of the season we ask, are Rob Edwards' team actually enjoying the fight?! Aston Villa almost gifted Brentford all 3 points despite going 2-0 ahead, with Ollie Watkins saving the day once more with the equaliser to make it 3-3. Watkins himself conceded Villa lacked a "big team mentality" by not seeing off Brentford while they had the chance. Is that a fair assessment. Elsewhere, Manchester United somehow drew 2-2 to Liverpool to have a say in the title race. Despite facing a barrage of shots, Erik ten Hag's men came out fighting in the second half. Which handed the advantage back to Arsenal, whose impressive 3-0 win over Brighton puts them back in the title driving seat. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Myles and Dave try and sum up the biggest weekend of title-chasing action so far. Man City and Arsenal cancel each other out in a muted 0-0 draw, handing Liverpool the advantage.

However, it was the returning Harvey Barnes who made all the difference here. Ezri Konsa's perfect week continued as Aston Villa beat West Midlands rivals Wolves 2-0.

Mike and Myles pick apart a massive weekend at the top of the Premier League, as Liverpool and Manchester City drew 1-1 in a thoroughly entertaining game. We talk City's clever goal, De Bruyne's off-day, chaotic Luis Diaz, and the kung-fu kick that didn't win a penalty. Arsenal benefited the most from that result, moving top on goal difference after a 2-1 win at Brentford. Can the Gunners hold their nerve? North London neighbours Tottenham gave their top 4 hope a huge boost with a 4-0 win over rivals Aston Villa. Myles had plenty to say about Spurs' strengths and Villa's shortcomings.

The first major silverware of the season was won by Liverpool, as they beat Chelsea 1-0 to lift the Carabao Cup - the first of another Quadruple assault.

Mike, Myles and Dave discuss how the game was won and lost, and what this means for both teams for the rest of the season. Meanwhile, in the Premier League, Arsenal can't stop scoring, as they dispatched Newcastle convincingly 4-1. They look mentally in much better shape than last season, with Bukayo Saka leading the way. Aston Villa looked to cement their top 4 place against Nottingham Forest, and did so in a solid 4-2 win. And the lads also analyse the start of the Oliver Glasner era at Crystal Palace, and how much they improved in a 3-0 win over Burnley. Learn more about your ad choices.
