The Ramble: David Moyes returns to West Ham, Arsenal lose but improve, and VAR is rubbish again. And again. And again… Dec 30, 2019

Show notes

David Moyes is back in charge at West Ham as they once again ask him to ferry them to safety! Is anything surprising any more? No, not really.

Elsewhere in London, Arsenal and Chelsea played out an energetic game that felt like a victory for Arsenal - despite it being a victory for Chelsea - because they weren’t booed off. Small victories and all that.

There was also lots of action in the Championship, Steven Gerrard’s Rangers got one over on Celtic and we chat thrusting, IKEA stadiums and cramp.

The Blizzard: Liverpool 2-1 Arsenal, 2004 Dec 28, 2019

Show notes

Joining us on today’s episode of Greatest Games, in association with The Blizzard, is The Independent’s Vithushan Ehantharajah! His chose today's game based on pure, glorious nostalgia: Liverpool 2-1 Arsenal from 2004.

This game, with its mix of technical ability and unrelenting pace, was a tremendous advert for the Premier League. Arsenal’s performances were beginning to falter after coming off their invincible season, though this was still only their second defeat in 55 league matches. The goal they did score, a truly glorious one, served as a fleeting mirage of that previous Arsenal. Their opponents came flying out the traps, with Xabi Alonso particularly impressive, and played their part in a classic Premier League affair. And it was all rounded off by Neil Mellor’s astonishing goal deep into injury time!

The Preview Show: Chelsea visit Arsenal, drama at the bottom, and Alan Pardew’s at The Hague at last Dec 27, 2019

Show notes

Christmas might be over but the PL never, ever, never stops, so we’re back to ruminate on Chelsea’s visit to Arsenal’s Emirates Enmity Bowl, the heartwarming tale of Liverpool’s Milly Elliot and a Steve Bruce Old Trafford belly rub for the ages.

As well as all this there’s plenty of festive fun, games galore (one game), the acceptance that Norwich are just rubbish and theories on how you’d get rid of Duncan Ferguson if you for some reason had to.

Jules & Andy: Sheffield United continue to impress, Southampton travel to the Bridge, and Leicester try to close the gap Dec 24, 2019

Show notes

It’s Christmas Eve, and there’s a brand new episode of Jules & Andy wrapped up under the tree!

We’re here to take a look at some of the upcoming Boxing Day fixtures, and begin with Sheffield Utd’s home game against Watford. We discuss the remarkable achievements of Chris Wilder and his players as the newly-promoted side sit fifth in the table. We also praise Southampton and their improved performances - and how it all could have been so different had Ralph Hasenhüttl been sacked after their 9-0 thrashing. And we finish with Leicester’s final throw of their title-racing dice, as they host newly-crowned world champions Liverpool.

We’ve got all of that plus some of your correspondence, which includes what footballing presents are on our listeners’ wish lists!

The Ramble: Liverpool are champions of the world, Lampard bests Mourinho, and Manchester win the battle of the Citys Dec 23, 2019

Show notes

Given that they’re so far ahead, Liverpool took the weekend off to go and win another trophy in Doha, while Riyad Mahrez came back to haunt Leicester as Brendyball came up short against Man City. Elsewhere, Nigel Pearson’s revitalised Watford were too much for the ghost of Man United.

Forget all that though, because Miguel Almiron scored! It finally happened and it could not have been more adorable.

Aside from all this football nonsense we confess to a historic panettone theft, chat head bonks and envision massive cherries.

The Blizzard: Red Star 2-2 Bayern Munich, 1991 Dec 21, 2019

Show notes

On today’s episode of Greatest Games, in association with The Blizzard, we’re looking back at an absolutely phenomenal match - one that Jonathan describes as potentially his favourite ever game of football. The Athletic’s Rafa Honigstein joins us to represent the other half of this fixture, as Bayern Munich take on Red Star Belgrade in the second leg of the 1991 European Cup semi-finals.

Political instability formed an all-encompassing backdrop to this game, with Slovenia and Croatia both declaring independence unilaterally in the months leading up to this game, and it was built up as a momentous footballing occasion. The 1991 European Cup was a tournament both sides were desperate to win; Bayern were obsessed with winning the European Cup again after 1976, and had suffered some traumatic final defeats in subsequent matches, while the Yugoslavian national side had notoriously lost a range of finals in the latter half of the 20th Century. With a home defeat in the first leg, Bayern were praying for a miracle - as we discover, the game more than lived up to this sizeable billing.

The Preview Show: Everton host Arsenal in the New Manager Derby, Leicester & Man City battle for third, and it’s Mourinho vs Lampard at Spurs Dec 20, 2019

Show notes

What a week for new managers, as Mikel Arteta takes the reins at Arsenal (probably at the time of recording) and Carlo Ancelotti rocks up at Everton (possibly etc etc). Bouncy new managers galore!

There’s even more to get excited about as Leicester put Brendyball to the test against assistant-managerless Man City, while Jose Mourinho’s Spurs host Frank Lampard’s Chelsea in a sentence that is still new enough to seem really weird.

But there’s more! Shark eyes and squeaky eyes! RoboPete! The Graham Souness Chest Hair Advent Calendar! That’s the sandwich.

On The Continent: Dortmund and Leipzig slug it out, El Clásico ends goalless, and Goal Bae returns Dec 19, 2019

Show notes

The Fussball-Meisters are back again for a brand new episode of On The Continent. There’s a whole load of stuff on the docket today, and we begin with last night’s El Clásico. It was the first goalless tie between the two sides since 2002, and Real Madrid were (predictably) unhappy with some of the officiating. We discuss Zinedine Zidane’s deserved public praise for Gareth Bale after his impressive display, as well as Luka Jović’s struggles in the Spanish capital.

We then take stock of a crazy Bundesliga game Andy saw earlier this week, as a Jadon Sancho-inspired Dortmund somehow didn’t emerge victorious from a cracking 3-3 with RB Leipzig. We also celebrate the goalscoring return of original OTC Goalbae Patrik Schick, before looking ahead to Leipzig’s intriguing matchup against Spurs in the Champions League and previewing the draw more generally.

James also talks about his recent chat with Max Allegri, and we have some cracking Games of the Week lined up. Join us!
