Mourinho is like a vampire sucking the life out of Man Utd May 20, 2018

Show notes

Saturday's FA Cup final is the main subject of discussion on this week's Total Football, with Telegraph Sport's Chief Football Correspondent Jason Burt joining host Thom Gibbs to dissect the game. There's also an England World Cup squad to analyse, with all the big topics covered including which formation Southgate will play, who will start in goal and whether it's acceptable to announce your 23 names with a video of shouting children. Midlands Football Correspondent John Percy is on hand to gaze at the majesty of the managerial merry-go-round which has featured enough sudden horse-disembarking this week to concern a health and safety inspector. Plus a chat with broadcaster Michelle Owen about the forthcoming Football League play-offs, and whether we might be about to wave goodbye to the longest-serving manager of the 92.

A centurion season May 13, 2018

Show notes

Goodbye Premier League season 2017/18, we've all had a fairly nice time but all fairly good things must come to an end. That's exactly what happened on Sunday with a final simultaneous round of games providing everything from last-gasp record-clinching for Manchester City, turbo-charged Champions League spot-securing for Liverpool and mega-goal we're-all-slightly-on-holiday-now fun at Wembley Stadium. Telegraph Sport's Football News Correspondent Matt Law joins host Thom Gibbs to assess the final chapter and the season as a whole. The England World Cup squad will be submitted by Gareth Southgate in the coming days, and former England goalkeeper Rachel Brown-Finnis joins to discuss who will make the 23, and whether Southgate has any surprises in store. Plus a chat with Ryan Bailey about the possibility of Wayne Rooney rocking up in Washington DC, and whether that would be a good a move for club, country or Donald Trump's son.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Little to treasure from Arsenal's final trip to Manchester under Arsene Wenger's management, other than the mysterious trinket kindly given to him before the game from his former mortal enemy. Jim White joins host Thom Gibbs to discuss that and the rest of the Premier League weekend, which produced a landmark goal tally for City, an increasingly exciting relegation battle and, let's face it, two goalless draws.

Man Utd at their best haven't come close to City Apr 15, 2018

Total Football heads to Wolverhampton for a chat with broadcaster and Wolves fan Lynsey Hooper about her now-promoted side and how they might fare in the top tier. Plus a word from Keith Hackett on the Gianluigi Buffon shouting incident which could have reverberations far down the footballing pyramid.
