World Cup News

Manchester City mercilessly put Ralf Rangnick’s holiday camp to the sword, as Manchester United looked limp, bereft of ideas, and defensively shot. Or as Pep called it, ‘incredibly impressive’. Marcus, Pete and Jim recap all of that, ask whether Arsenal should stay in red, and wonder if Phil Coutinho’s spiritual home really is the rainy midlands. Plus, penalty megamind Tim Krul is undone and there’s an overdue update from Britain’s oldest footballer! Dickie’s back! Tweet us @FootballRamble and email us here: [email protected].

Realising his team was under the pump, Granit Xhaka did the only thing he could do: get sent off for a reckless high boot and inspire Arsenal to new heights of camaraderie and team spirit. The man’s a revolutionary. Kate, Luke and Andy discuss last night’s clash at Anfield and look ahead to the battle for North London on today's episode of The Preview Show, sponsored by Betway!

With a great win over West Ham last night, can we finally say it? The Emirates is... a fortress? Marcus, Jim and Pete wrestle with that and check in the rest of last night's matches, featuring some worldy skills from James Ward-Prowse and Rúben Neves. We also celebrate Sergio Agüero's amazing career and pull on an alarming Aussie thread.

As Arsenal's leadership group pass the captaincy parcel around at London Colney, we wonder who can take the bantle on now Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's been dismissed. Those Amazon cameras must be delighted! Kate, Pete and Vish look over their troubles and check in with a despondent Marcelo Bielsa as the master was absolutely thwacked by the apprentice at the Etihad. There was also a Groundhog Away Day for Dean Smith and a perfect tribute to Diego Maradona by his heir apparent, Philippe Coutinho.

Arsenal went into Banter Club retrograde last night with a dismal display that helped Everton to a vital three points. Even some picky VAR offsides for Richarlison couldn't save them! Kate, Vish and Jim pick through Arsenal's torrid turn and wonder if Farhad Moshiri can turn things around at Everton despite all evidence suggesting otherwise. We also call in the Keggycopter to help with some signage at St James' Park, look ahead to tonight's Champions League action and fear for Jude Bellingham after some punchy post-match comments.

Man United welcome in the Ralf Rangnick era with a chaotic win over Arsenal, with Fred epitomising the good, the bad and the batshit that Ralf must contend with. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Marcus, Andy and Jim look ahead to a bumper Barclays weekender on today's Preview Show, sponsored by Betway. There are some huge matches down the bottom of the table, a cross-capital ding dong and the Scott Parker Derby to name a few. Elsewhere, Phil Neville's been telling us about how many friends he wants/needs - poor Fizzer.

Kate, Luke and Jim get stuck into the big questions right at the heart of the football discourse on today's show: did Arsène Wenger leave Arsenal too late? Did Callum Wilson think he was collecting Eddie Howe from the airport? Who's Stuart Attwell again? We also wonder how Howe might fare on Tyneside after his appointment was confirmed, hear of some glorious Brazilian shithousery and celebrate Mikel Arteta's impressive centenary.

Kate, Vish and Jim take a break from two-stepping around Newcastle's festival scene with Jordan Pickford to assess how Everton have started and what they can expect from this season. We also look into some peculiar social media action from Arsenal, try to seize the means of footballing production and look ahead to another round of that sweet, sweet Carabao.

There can be no tougher test for Cristiano Ronaldo than a visit from Steve Bruce's tactical titans - just as well no UK fans will be able to watch it, really!

Deadline day drama: you couldn’t write it. Except Newcastle’s new signing Santiago Muñóz who is literally a character from a film: yeah, they really did it. Kate, Luke and Vish are here to discuss Kylian Mbappé, who’s staying right where he is despite being turned into a human clock. Elsewhere, even Sergio Agüero is going to have a tough time propping up Barcelona's attack as they swap Antoine Griezmann for a St James' Park legend. We also round-up the Premier League’s own serving of nonsense, as Salomón Rondón is reunited with his true love and Arsenal have sounded the centre-back alarm.

Kate, Luke and Pete are here to sift through the good, the bad and the questionable from another round of Now That's What I Call Deadline Day. We're swiping right on Transfer Tinder for likes of Odsonne Edouard and Dan James, while Alex Witsel's coach has snuffed out rumours on Twitter. We also hear of some noble deeds - from Troy Deeney, who leaves Watford after eleven years' service, and Willian, who leaves Arsenal after the world's most ludicrous contract.

Marcus, Vish and Jim take another post-Premier League bath, with a whole host of nonsense to get stuck into. Join us! Cristiano Ronaldo was off to Man City when we last spoke, but now we wrestle with some mixed feelings ahead of his return to Old Trafford. There's plenty of on-pitch stuff too; Patrick Vieira's youth revolution gets underway at Crystal Palace, the malaise continues to set in at Arsenal, and Chelsea's ten men survive a testing trip to Anfield.

To everyone’s absolute shock, Daniel Levy has outmanoeuvred Charlie Kane and Harry ‘H’ Kane is staying at Spurs after all. But just you wait for the gentleman’s agreement they have lined up for next summer. Marcus, Jim and Andy discuss the end of the Kane saga, while Pep covers it up by cooking up a fresh one of his own.

Romelu Lukaku is back and he’s already wreaking havoc. Marcus, Vish and a chastened Jim Campbell cast their eyes over the second round of the Premier League circus. We discuss Lukaku’s credentials as the next Bond after Arsenal fall to Chelsea, wonder whether Fred might be more effective as a Paul Pogba golf club, and try to find out where Burnley source their players after another valiant battle at Anfield.

Just the four assists and a dominant display from the Man United midfielder? Not interested. Jules, Luke and Pete revel in the return of the Premier League as Spurs kept Man City at arm's length and Brentford sent a sorry Arsenal packing.

Like John H. Miller charging into the chaos at Omaha Beach, it seems Ben White has quite the job at the centre of Arsenal's defence. Keep the sand out of your boots, Ben. Kate, Jim and Andy recap the weekend's football, which saw Celtic starting the Scottish Premiership season in disappointing fashion and Arsenal losing an absolutely crucial pre-season fixture.

Arsenal scored what might be the most chaotically awful goal of the season to keep their Europa Conference League fire flickering. Jules, Luke and Andy pour scorn over that blaze after some bizarre comments from Mikel Arteta in the post-match. There’s plenty of time for other nonsense elsewhere, as Plymouth’s vaccination queues inadvertently snake towards Argyle’s club shop and Sir Alex Ferguson gives Steven Gerrard some valuable advice. In relocation news, the Champions League final’s off to Porto and there’s murmurs of Frank Lampard arriving late into the Selhurst Park box, slotting his CV in the net.

Kate, Luke and Pete celebrate a momentous anniversary on today's episode of The Preview Show, sponsored by Betway. Fifteen years ago today, Spurs ate that lasagne! Ah, good times. Back in the present, Arsenal suffer an embarrassing knockout at the hands of Unai Emery and Edinson Cavani dragged his Man United teammates to their first final under Ole Gunnar Solskjær. Marcelo Bielsa also needs some new glasses, while the "dark forces" around Newcastle United finally get removed – though Mike Ashley does still own them.

Death, taxes and Kelechi Iheanacho netting in 2021: only one of those gives us that tingly feeling. Marcus, Pete and Vish jump on Leicester’s wholesome hype train, calling at all stations to the 2021/22 Champions League. We also concern ourselves with Arsenal’s new altruistic suitors, who include a tech billionaire and an Invicibles tribute act.

Marcus, Pete and Vish take a long swig from the weekend’s cocktail of Premier League, FA Cup quarter-finals, and free-scoring goalkeepers. Man United were terrorised by Kelechi ‘What Are You Looking For’ Iheanacho and Youri Tielemans as Brendy Rodgers marked his 100th game at the King Power in style. Elsewhere, Carlo Ancelotti strangely decided to conceal the opposition from his players as Man City hunt down an appointment with Joey Fatone.

Two teams with absolutely zero game management = a cracking North London derby. Marcus, Jim, and Pete get stuck into a veritable fry-up of football! While José Mourinho lamented his big players ‘hiding’ and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang got stuck in traffic with the Home Alone cast, Erik Lamela was his usual chaotic self at the Emirates. Elsewhere, Kelechi Iheanacho had a lovely old time against Sheffield United, who are still reeling from the news of Sam Allardyce’s imminent arrival.

Arsenal provided a tantalising taste of the chaos to come this weekend last night. Marcus, Vish and Luke are here to put it under the spotlight - warts and all - on today’s episode of The Preview Show, sponsored by Betway! We discuss Chris Wilder’s mooted exit - far from ideal preparation for facing a pizza-fuelled, pint-filled Jamie Vardy on Sunday. We also look forward to West Ham’s visit to Old Trafford and Vish’s dust-up with Declan Rice – though, in any event, Man United fans will surely be comforted by the news of Avram Glazer’s latest business move. And we go north of the border for huge developments at Aberdeen and for some reason check in with Ken Bates.

Marcus, Jim and Vish are here with just enough time to bid Sam Allardyce farewell, seeing as West Brom will need to sack him before registering another home league win. Sorry, Big Sam, them’s the stats. Elsewhere, we got a nostalgic reminder of safer times across the rest of the weekend’s action, with both Willian and Gareth Bale looking more like their old selves. Then, Man City reminded us of their previous recent selves with yet another win, and we hear from a listener who is related to Portuguese football royalty! Vai!

With the latest round of FA Cup fixtures sorted, we turn our attention to this weekend’s Premier League action on today’s episode of The Preview Show, sponsored by Betway! Marcus, Luke and Jim wonder if Spurs will have some commemorative lanyards made should they get a result against Man City. We’ll also see the long-awaited rematch between Ezgjan Alioski and Nicolas Pépé at the Emirates - a game which the polite hosts will almost certainly lose - before the Prodigal Son returns home.

Oh dear, Southampton fans. Not only did your team ship nine goals for the second season in a row, but a delighted Luke Moore is on today’s show. He’s joined by Kate and Pete to pick through the startling, smouldering rubble left behind at Old Trafford. There were some other chaotic results in last night’s Premier League action, as Sheffield United began the long and daunting climb to safety while David Luiz left his grubby, predictable paw prints all over Arsenal’s bizarre loss at Wolves. Speaking of bizarre, André Villas-Boas' reign at Marseille has come to a salty end - is he lining himself up for the Newcastle job? We hope so.

It seems this weekend’s Magic of The Cup™️ was all crammed into a cracking game at Old Trafford, with Man United edging out Liverpool thanks to more Bruno Fernandes wizardry. Jules, Jim and Pete are here to revel in that glorious game and look across the rest of the weekend’s results, as Man City beat a spirited Cheltenham Town and Southampton knocked out holders Arsenal. Away from the FA Cup, Newcastle maintained their alarming slide down the table and Fenerbahçe are seemingly crowdfunding Mesut Özil’s wages, because that’s just the world we live in now… Search ‘Football Ramble’ on social media to find us, and email us here: [email protected]. ***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

Marcus, Vish and Andy are here to say their heartfelt goodbyes to a few stalwarts of English Football and look over the entirely expected and underwhelming spectacle that was Arsenal 3-0 Newcastle. First on the plane is Mesut Özil, who closes off his messy final chapter at Arsenal with his expected move to Fenerbahçe. We wonder how he'll be remembered at Arsenal, who cast further doubt over Steve Bruce’s masterplan at Newcastle last night. There’s also time to party in the city where the heat is on, as Phil Neville’s on South Beach until the break of dawn: he’s taking charge of Inter Miami! Danny Drinkwater and Jack Wilshere also look for new starts at Kasımpaşa and Bournemouth respectively.

Marcus, Jim and Pete look back on a weekend packed with Premier League happenings! Man City put on a lamps out performance at Stamford Bridge which left everyone reeling - their own keeper most of all. But while Chelsea piss away their title chances, over in the midlands Arsenal just about resist the temptation to make yellow snow and demolish Big Sam’s men. Elsewhere, José was left feeling hard done by after Reguilón left his Christmas piglet. But over in Brazil Neymar had a quiet night in on New Year's Eve and left his underground nightclub untouched. There’s also news of a dog’s escapades in Bolivia and we ask who is the better father: Cristiano Ronaldo or Bean Dad?

The Carabao Cup failed to serve up any great surprises last night, as Man City swept aside a meagre Arsenal and Brentford made their first ever semi-final after beating an underwhelming Newcastle. Marcus, Andy and Vish are here to chew over all of that, watch the fallout from the Scottish Cup tumble out of control and check in on Lionel Messi’s record-breaking quest for immortality. Oh, and FIFA has found some ‘irregularities’ regarding their museum and Sepp Blatter - obviously.

There are some tasty fixtures for us to look ahead to on today’s episode of The Preview Show, sponsored by Betway! Our own trio of flash cockneys - Marcus, Luke and Jim - are here to wet your footballing appetites! Another edition of the North London derby rolls into view, as Eric Dier and José Mourinho continue to praise every other player and manager across all 92 clubs rather than their own. Arsenal meanwhile welcomed fans back to the Emirates last night with a comfortable, one-touch stroll down memory lane. We also delve into the historic rivalry between Chelsea and Leeds, hear some more bizarre tales of dads at football grounds and see Michael Owen’s furious streak appear before our very eyes. Join us!

Each Premier League match seems to be falling into one of two categories: ‘chaotic goal-fest’ or ‘tedious, dull nonsense’. Join Jules, Luke and Pete on today’s episode as we sort through this weekend’s games. Southampton’s annihilation of Aston Villa certainly fits into the former category, as free-kick extraordinaire James Ward-Prowse showed his class. Man United vs Arsenal, though a great win for the Gunners, was a decidedly torrid affair. We get into those, plus Newcastle’s win over Everton and Mick McCarthy’s new gig, in an action-packed edition of the Football Ramble! The Football Ramble, the original and best football podcast.

After Liverpool stood strong in Amsterdam and Man City swept aside Porto, Kate, Pete and Andy settle in for another roundup of Champions League action on this glorious Thursday. We then look over Mesut Özil’s omission from Arsenal’s Premier League squad and wonder how a player of such undisputed talent has ended up in his position. We also even have time for some glorious shithousery over in Valencia, as a well-placed mariachi band continue to snap at the heels of the club’s owners.

After an extraordinary weekend of results, Kate, Jim and Pete are here to discuss ALL the goals, shocking incidents and prehistoric mascots. First things first, there’s chat on Watkins getting both feet and his head involved in a first-half hat-trick which saw Villa thrash the defending champions, while Spurs delivered 6 in a humiliating defeat at Old Trafford.
