  • S03E03 Szoboszlai’s Rocket Leaves Arsenal Stunned at Anfield
    Sep 1 2025

    My guest this time is Paul, a Liverpool fan. 🎙️ In this episode of Footglish, I’m joined by Paul to break down Liverpool’s 1–0 win over Arsenal at Anfield, where Szoboszlai’s free-kick wonder was the difference.

    We discuss:

    • Whether Florian Wirtz has truly hit the ground running at Liverpool,
    • If this was an ugly match to watch despite the big occasion,
    • Just how good Szoboszlai’s free kick really was,
    • And the big question: are Liverpool genuine title favourites this season?

  • S03E1 Man United's Defeat - Performance More than the Result
    Aug 20 2025

    🎙️ In this episode of Footglish, I’m joined by Leontes from the Mr. Henriquez YouTube channel to reflect on Arsenal’s win over Manchester United and discuss what it might mean for United moving forward.

    We discuss:

    • Whether performance is more important than the result (Man United beaten, but arguably played well),
    • Which Manchester United players are now seen as deadwood,
    • Which of the new signings impressed,
    • Whether Arsenal are becoming increasingly cynical in their approach,
    • And whether being out of Europe this season might actually benefit Manchester United (with 9 other Premier League teams competing in Europe, including 6 Champions League clubs).
