The Rest Is Football

Manchester City beat Chelsea at Wembley to complete the domestic double, with Pep Guardiola claiming his 20th trophy at the club in just 10 years. Has Pep cemented himself as the greatest manager in Premier League history? And with fresh speculation surrounding his future, will he still be at the Etihad next season?

At the other end of the table, West Ham’s problems continue after a heavy defeat to Newcastle. With defensive issues mounting and confidence draining, are the Hammers heading for relegation — or is there still hope of a dramatic escape?

Plus, Gary and Alan discuss Mohamed Salah’s latest comments, the growing tension around Liverpool, and whether Arne Slot’s future at Anfield could already be in doubt.

Huge controversy at the London Stadium as Arsenal snatch a massive three points away to West Ham. The Hammers thought they had rescued a dramatic injury-time equaliser, only for VAR to rule it out after a lengthy review.

Meanwhile, Manchester City kept the pressure on with a win over Brentford to remain five points behind with a game in hand. But has that costly draw against Everton F.C. already sealed their fate?

Elsewhere, Gary, Alan & Micah discuss AFC Bournemouth’s incredible rise towards Champions League football and debate whether Andoni Iraola is making the right decision by leaving at the end of the season.
