“Hey Ruud, do you know how to fix a roof?” Ruud van Nistelrooy wants to stay at Man United after Rúben Amorim gets the job and Pete has an idea on how Van Nistelrooy can make himself useful… Speaking of which, Marcus, Jim, Vish and Pete show sympathy for teams that are yet to play their Man United voucher. Do they have an expiry date? Elsewhere, Mikel Arteta continues to be mysterious and it’s all going wrong in Saudi for Steven Gerrard and Cristiano Ronaldo.

We are gathered here today to help our friend Vithushan Ehantharajah whose football team has fallen on hard times. Please take a moment to think of Vish. Moment over. Today, Luke, Jim and Vish analyse Tottenham’s decision to cash in their Man United voucher this weekend. Plus, Luke declares that James Justin’s goal at Arsenal is the goal of the season so far and we agree that it’s best to keep José Mourinho at a safe distance after some more incredible antics from the special one.

Join Marcus, Jim and Vish as we recap the biggest game of the season so far, where Arsenal had to be at their dastardly, ugly best to keep Man City at bay. It’s refreshing to see two sides who genuinely can’t stand each other. We also whip round the rest of what proved to be a cracking Premier League weekend as Luis Diaz brought the fireworks, West Ham continue to welcome opponents in with open arms and the calls for Danny Welbeck to get a surprise England call-up grow ever louder.

Did Declan Rice deserve his red card? Panel review Arsenal star's dismissal Pulse Sports Nigeria

Everyone wants to bring a wee mate with them on deadline day, right? This year, the end of the window actually threw up some fascinating storylines for some big names, including Jadon Sancho switching one frying pan for another, slightly less hot frying pan. Marcus, Luke and Jim catch up with the best of the headlines. We discuss Raheem Sterling (and soon Harry Kane’s) move to Eng- I mean Arsenal. We also assess whether Sancho can reignite his career and whether Ivan Toney has killed his off once and for all after moving to Saudi Arabia. Plus - shockingly - someone actually, willingly signed Neal Maupay. Who knew?

Bad news, everyone: the Amazon seller who sold Pete a durian for us to try today had to cancel the order due to “supply chain issues.” More news as we get it. That leaves Pete, Luke and Jim with plenty of time to tuck into some other breaking news: Mick McCarthy and Roy Keane’s debuts in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

It’s not just about the Manchester City fourth successive title, it’s about the Phil Fodens that were made along the way. Marcus, Luke, Jim and Vish take in the final weekend of the Premier League season where young Phil demolished Arsenal’s title hopes with a swivel of his hips and Jürgen Klopp gave an emotional and fully-clothed goodbye to Anfield. Plus, Roberto De Zerbi bows out to smoke a lot of cigarettes and Jean-Philippe Mateta’s revenge mission against Andy Brassell goes on pause until August. Come join us!

Did anyone see Kyle Walker lay an egg last night? Well, Jim Campbell did and he tells Marcus, Luke and Andy why he thinks it’s a good omen for Arsenal. Elsewhere, we ask: was Man City’s win so comfortable that it might encourage Oasis to get back together?

How about them plucky underdogs Real Madrid, eh? Marcus and Vish are on hand to react to a disastrous evening in Europe for the English sides. On a night which saw Erling Haaland subbed before extra time, Vish asks whether Man City had too many cooks and no one to eat the pudding. In Munich, Arsenal also appeared to be lacking an appetite as they failed to trouble Bayern. We wonder where Arsenal go from here to ensure they can get the results when it really counts.

What’s that noise? Is that the sound of Euro-trash floating from Lineker’s Bar? That’s right, Pete thinks it’s official: Jack Grealish is already planing his post-title win sesh. Marcus, Jim and Pete react to a huge weekend at the top of the Premier League as both Liverpool and Arsenal promptly put their special carton of Premier League celebration milk back into the freezer (more on that at the end of the show).

How about that football, eh? Last night’s Champions League action was so good that Andy has decided he needs to get a second big telly to watch all the barns burn at once. Marcus, Jim, Vish and Andy reflect on Arsenal showing glimpses of their ITV era last night and marvel at the quality of goals on display in Madrid.

Marcus didn’t think he’d ever make this comparison but… Phil Foden went full-blown Wayne Rooney against Aston Villa! It was a stunning hat-trick. But what were Villa doing leaving the serving hatch of their wall wide open for his first goal? Marcus and Jim react to victories for Man City and Arsenal which keep the title race cookin’.

Marcus, Luke, Vish and Pete return after Man City 0-0 Arsenal to find the barn very much intact. Wasn’t even remotely burned. Pep Guardiola still found plenty to be angry about, of course. Luckily there were plenty of other Barclays bangers to get stuck into, as Man United somehow escaped Brentford with a point, West Ham somehow lost a crazy game at Newcastle, and Chelsea somehow remain the most mid-table club in the division. According to Mauricio Pochettino, anyway - he thinks they should be fourth, you see.

Arsenal’s penalty shootout win over Porto was so exhilarating that even the crowd were exhausted at the end - so how do you think a 41 year-old Pepe felt? Marcus, Jim, Pete and Andy breakdown the game and ask whether Martin Ødegaard could play football in a train station Pret a Manger.

On a bruising night for Sheffield United, Marcus and Andy pick apart their season and whether it was always destined to end this way.

If you’re going to make one New Year’s resolution, make it this: watch the Indian national team at the Asian Cup. Why, you ask? Trevor Sinclair has just been made their overhead kick coach. Marcus, Andy and Jim look back on a bitterly disappointing night for Arsenal and Konstantinos Mavropanos, who had to go through the Scott Sinclair Moral Maze™ of scoring against a club he barely played for. Plus, Roberto De Zerbi harnesses yet more chaotic energy, Phil Foden gets praise from a different bald fraud, and Jim explains how Jose Mourinho played mind games with his family on Christmas Day… **Please note that only UK listeners are eligible to enter our Toshiba competition!** Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, and email us here: [email protected].

Jim Campbell is happy with a point at Anfield. However, he’s not so happy with Zinchenko attempting to do the Stanky Legg when faced up against Mohamed Salah in the box. He and Luke tuck into the festive feast served up by Liverpool and Arsenal, before enjoying Robbie Fowler sticking the boot into Michael Owen for dessert.

Those were the thoughts of a philosophical Vithushan Ehantharajah on tonight’s Ramble Reacts after Manchester United failed to beat the Hall of Fame of Your Favourite Players You Don’t Really Pay Attention To.

Another VAR conspiracy, eh? It must be time for a Monday Ramble! Marcus, Jim, Andy and Vish get their head around all the drama at St James’ Park on Saturday night after Arsenal join the Statement Posse. Plus, Vish suggests the novel idea of burying old football grounds, Darwin Nunez continues to prove that he’s the most Ramble player to ever play the game, and a Scottish non-league player really puts the ‘injury’ in injury time… And how could we forget?

Luke and Andy roll out the red carpet for the Premier League’s post qualifiers return, but not before they pay tribute to Sir Bobby Charlton after his tragic passing. We remember his phenomenal talents on the pitch, as well as just how classy and affable he was off it. We also check in with his former team as Man United stumbled past Sheffield United, while Chelsea and Arsenal lovingly shared the points at the Bridge - as each goalkeeper tried to prove they’re more chaotic than the other.

In an absolutely seismic pre-season friendly, Man United beat up Arsenal on the pitch - while Arsenal fans in the stands beat up each other. Ahh, soccer.

The youngest person gets the job - that’s Daniel Levy’s new motto, apparently! Pete’s in the hot seat today and he’s joined by Luke and Jim to once again try and make sense of Tottenham’s recruitment strategy.
