Monday 22nd December - Weekend Review || Arsenal, Chelsea draw, Spurs lose... business as usual then? Villa

Seb arrives in full misery mode after Spurs lose, so he declares himself a neutral football fan for the week. We start with Manchester United. Are they genuinely in trouble, or do they just look like a club trapped between two plans? We talk injuries, AFCON absences, squad building, and why their “not that bad” performances still feel like a warning sign.

After the break, we go deep on Aston Villa’s ten win run and the online obsession with whether it’s sustainable. We argue about XG, wonder goals, and why certain players make the numbers look broken.

In this episode:

- Man United in CRISIS

- United's worst midfield ever?

- Aston Villa's 10-WIN STREAK defying all logic

- XG Philosophy in the mud

- Arsenal TOP at Christmas despite "stumbling" narrative

- Chelsea come back from 2-0 DOWN at Newcastle

- Reece James appreciation hour

- Spurs Fan BROKEN

- West Ham going DOWN?

Thursday 18th December | After dividing opinion with overrated players, this week the lads go through EVERY Premier League club and pick the most underrated player. You may hear mentioned of Calafiori, Mainoo and Chiesa...

Some clean sweeps, some heated debates. West Ham and Villa got unanimous picks. Spurs sparked chaos. And is Welbeck ACTUALLY underrated when he's third top scorer in the league scoring free kicks at 34?!

Thursday 11th December - WARNING: We're about to upset every single fan base. The boys go through all 20 Premier League clubs and pick the most overrated player at each one. Overrated doesn't mean bad - it just means they're not quite at the level people think they are.

From Bruno Fernandes to Alexander Isak ("Needs Jacob Murphy"), Ollie Watkins ("the most overrated striker of the last decade") to Eberechi Eze (Seb is still salty about the hat-trick), no one escapes.

Monday 8th December - Salah has just dropped one of the biggest interviews in Premier League history. Liverpool are in CIVIL WAR. Salah vs Slot. The boys dissect it all.

Meanwhile Arsenal are HUMBLED at Villa Park. Buendia's last-minute winner, Emery has Arteta's number, and Rory defending Victor Gyokeres, of course. Arsenal haven't beaten ANY of the top five this season - should we be worried?

And the title race? WIDE OPEN. Villa are three points off the top. City look fun again with Foden and Cherki cooking. Could Villa actually do a Leicester?

Plus: Spurs FINALLY win! Xavi Simons masterclass, Chelsea's December collapse is back like clockwork.

We cover:

• Salah's explosive interview - what he said, what it means, is Slot finished?
• Arsenal's Villa Park nightmare - Eze, Gyokeres, and defensive concerns
• Villa's title credentials - can they sustain it?
• Man City looking scary again - Foden, Cherki, and Pep being weird
• Chelsea dropping more points - December struggles continue
• Spurs beat Brentford - Xavi Simons finally delivers
• Leeds' remarkable turnaround under Farke

Thursday 4th December - Tobes is in shambles. Three days after declaring Chelsea were back in the title race, they've been battered 4-1 at Elland Road with Chalobah at right back and three proper right-backs on the bench. The most arrogant performance in years.

Meanwhile, Seb finally gets to celebrate NOT LOSING after Romero's diving header rescued a point at Newcastle, in a game riddled with VAR controversy.

Liverpool? Eleven points behind Arsenal after dropping more points to Sunderland. Is Slot actually getting sacked before Thomas Frank?

A great midweek for Arsenal supporting Rory.

We cover:

• Chelsea's Leeds disaster - Tosin's disasterclass, Maresca's baffling team selection, and why the title race is over
• VAR penalty scandal at St James' Park
• Liverpool's collapse continues
• Arsenal's controlled win over Brentford
• Man City 5-4 Fulham
• Villa's incredible form continues - eight wins in nine
• Full weekend preview including Arsenal vs Villa, Spurs vs Brentford, Liverpool vs Leeds

Monday 1st December - The Review Show. This week, the boys are back to dissect a Chelsea 1-1 Arsenal game full of talking points but not a lot of good football.

And Seb? Well, Seb is still reeling from Fulham 2-1 Spurs and wondering if Thomas Frank will actually get the sack this time.

We break down Caicedo's red card, whether it was deserved, revisit Reece James vs. Jurrien Timber.

Then we turn to Tottenham, who are now in genuine danger of finishing 15th or 16th if they lose to Newcastle and Brentford this week. Seb goes full crisis mode discussing Vicario's howler, why the squad looks mentally broken, and whether Frank survives the Brentford game - you know, against his old club. Spoiler: it's not looking good.

We also cover:

• Liverpool vs West Ham but still looking shaky
• Aston Villa's incredible run continuing (seven wins in eight)
• Newcastle quietly climbing the table with Lewis Hall balling
• The actual Premier League sack race - Frank, Slot, or Amorim?
• Brighton, Sunderland, Palace and the battle for European spots
• Full midweek Premier League predictions including Fulham vs City, Newcastle vs Spurs, Arsenal vs Brentford, Chelsea vs Leeds and more
