And we might just be helping you plan your annual trip to Coachella with a soccer twist. Hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira are here to talk about more off-season prep. But that also means some pre-season planning. The Galaxy announced when they'd be reporting for pre-season training, and that is just a little over a month away. So does that mean there's time for Cristiano Ronaldo to turn down $200 million a year to play in Saudi Arabia? And will Josh go back on his "now or never" statement about the world superstar? Plus, Landon Donovan has been inducted into the US Soccer Hall of Fame. But two people didn't vote for him. What is wrong with those two people? Finally, the guys want to talk about our listeners and brag about how much podcasting they've done over the last trip around the sun. We think we'll allow it for now. Thanks for listening, and let's get back into this regular podcasting thing!

That's where the World Cup dominates soccer headlines even while Cristiano Ronaldo makes big news on and off the field. On today's show, host Josh Guesman wants to talk about why the LA Galaxy don't have much time to close a move for Ronaldo. It's now or never. And never is a real possibility. But could the Galaxy be that team that balances the East and the West coast? Josh also wants to talk about missing out on some of the things Victor Vazquez does well. And will his pick-up by Toronto mean he's never coming back to LA? Or does it just make it so much harder? And finally, what does a new contract for Johnny Perez mean for the 19-year-old's playing time with the first team? Probably nothing. Josh will explain. As always, thanks for joining us on this short update about your Galaxy. Do you think we got it all wrong? Then let us know!

For the final time before Christmas, Jimbo reviews the Premier League weekend in the company of Rory Smith, Jay Harris and Tim Spiers. Limping, wounded Brentford produce possibly the best result in their history by winning at the Etihad. Were Man City some way off full tilt ahead of the World Cup?

What did we make of Cristiano Ronaldo’s interview with Piers Morgan? And will Alejandro Garnacho be giving a similar one in 20 years time?

On today's bonus episode, Marcus, Jim and Andy look back at a classic combo from World Cups past. We return to 2006, where England's hopes of glory hinged on one stamp - and a wink. Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo had established themselves as two of Europe's brightest young stars when they met in the World Cup quarter-finals in 2006. We look back over that tempestuous game that riled up English fans and media alike for months afterwards. Even if they conveniently forgot that Rooney literally stamped on a man's groin.

Kelly Cates presents 'Saturday Night Football' from Stamford Bridge alongside Roy Keane and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink and they witnessed Manchester United’s Casemiro score a header in injury time to snatch a draw against Chelsea. Keane feels United should be scoring more goals after they squandered several chances against the Blues but are struggling to do so as they lack a goal threat in attack. In the final part, Gary Neville joins the trio in the studio from the gantry with the focus on the ongoing ‘Cristiano Ronaldo saga’. Keane and Neville have an extended heated debate over the Portuguese’s future at the club. Neville feels it would benefit everyone involved for the forward to leave United as soon as possible with Keane disagreeing, saying the legend still has a role to play for the team this season. There is also post-match reaction from Bruno Fernandes as well as both managers, Graham Potter and Erik ten Hag, who admitted the Red Devils missed having the option of Ronaldo after he was dropped from the matchday squad.

Essential Football is back fresh on the heels of the news Steven Gerrard has been sacked as Aston Villa boss and with three big games for Ron Walker, Pete Smith, Declan Olley and Jack Wilkinson to preview in the shape of Chelsea vs Man Utd, Southampton vs Arsenal and Tottenham vs Newcastle. PART ONE | After looking back on Gerrard's dismissal, is it the end of the road for Cristiano Ronaldo at Old Trafford with the announcement he won't feature at Stamford Bridge? What's Erik Ten Hag been doing so right in his opening 10 games and what's clicked for his opposite number, Graham Potter? Whose style will rule victorious on Saturday night, and who will be the game changers? PART TWO | Should Arsenal now be talked about as genuine title contenders? What's stopping them challenging Man City for the league? Is Ralph Hasenhuttl lucky still to be in charge at Southampton, or does he deserve time to turn things around? Plus why Spurs' performances and results just haven't matched up, and why Newcastle can hurt them in north London on Super Sunday.

Marcus, Luke, Pete and Andy pick through some post-Craven Cottage chaos, with Villa showing Stevie G the door after a turgid performance. At least they gave him a lift home! Also eyeing up the managerial buffet are Leeds and Southampton, while Cristiano Ronaldo’s insistent petulance threatens to overshadow his achievements. We also celebrate the return of two footballing icons: fans wearing goalie gloves in the crowd and Radja Nainggolan’s smoking habit. Got a question?
