    Mar 19 2026
    Newcastle went to the Nou Camp with realistic hopes of reaching the Champions League quarter-finals but in a game that was 2-2 until the stroke of half-time Barcelona went through the gears and ended up embarrassing the Toon Army 7-2 on the night. What did Hansi Flick do at the break to outwit Eddie Howe? Elsewhere, Liverpool and Arsenal progressed with comfortable wins over Galatasaray and Leverkusen but with Manchester City, Chelsea and Tottenham all being on the end of heavy defeats should we be concerned about the strength of the top English teams or is this just evidence that the European heavyweights save themselves for nights like these?

    Luis Suárez: The Moments That Made Them
    Mar 18 2026
    Was Luis Suárez’s 2013/14 season the greatest individual Premier League campaign of all time, or does Liverpool falling short of the title hold him back? Gary, Alan & Micah take a deep dive into Suárez at his unstoppable peak, while also confronting the controversies that shadowed his career, from the Branislav Ivanović biting incident to the allegations involving Patrice Evra. Do those moments change how we remember his brilliance? The guys also break down Suárez’s electric partnership with Raheem Sterling and Daniel Sturridge, comparing them to other iconic trios, including Rooney, Ronaldo and Tevez, and Salah, Mané and Firmino.

    Mar 17 2026
    Real Madrid dismantled Elche 4-1 at the Bernabeu thanks in part to an astonishing Arda Guler strike from deep inside his own half, the win also saw another goal for Fede Valverde after his Champions League hat-trick last week. Gary and Alex also look at whether Real might be moving away from the "Galacticos" mentality as five academy players were on the pitch, and impressed, at the Bernabeu. Barcelona got back to winning ways after their draw with Newcastle last week, putting five goals past Sevilla at the Nou Camp including a hat-trick for Raphinha. Atletico Madrid got themselves a 1-0 win over Getafe thanks to a stunning strike from Nahuel Molina, in a game which also featured a rather unusual red card...
