Gary catches up with Gerard Jones, author of 'Lets Talk Soccer' and a coach with experience in a number of countries including US and England, before he delivers a webinar to the Modern Soccer Coach Mentee group. They talk about the difference between youth soccer in UK and US and discuss how far coaches are willing to go to experience real learning in order to both challenge and advance their coaching.

As another transfer window slams dramatically and confusingly shut we do our best to assess who has done well and what Arsenal were actually planning, Dele Alli shows all the signs of following in the footsteps of many an England great at the World Cup and those resurgent swans of Swansea start to fly up the table. Within our usual ‘professionality’ there’s also talk of club therapists leaking information to the press, confusion at the gates of Wembley and a delightful airport tantrum.

Robbie Mustoe and Robbie Earle breakdown an action packed Saturday in the Premier League. Jose Mourinho's team stuttered again at home to Southampton (00:55), Mo Salah scored more goals as Liverpool came from behind against Leicester City (10:20), Chelsea dominated Stoke City (15:45) and both Bournemouth and Swansea scored late on to win big games at the bottom of the league (19:10). They wrapped up by looking ahead to Crystal Palace vs Man City and West Brom vs Arsenal (27:20).

Paul, Chris and Tom are here to preview the massive game against Arsenal this Friday! Will Klopp put Oxlade-Chamberlain into the side? How will the Reds fare away from home? All that and more discussed in this match build up! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

No manager has quite had the impact on football since 2007, both on and off the field, of Jose Mourinho. Even when not managing in England his shadow has always loomed large, and his time at the helm of two of the Premier League's most successful clubs in the modern era has never been short on drama. In no.6 on our countdown we tell of our experiences covering the man and his actions and try to work out what makes him such a box office attraction for better or worse in the game.

Well, this one was always likely to be in there somewhere wasn’t it! 18 months on from that incredible season in which Claudio Ranieri's Leicester City side upset the apple cart in a huge way, we chew over the fall out, reminisce about covering their superb campaign and ruminate on what it all means for football in England in general.

After City dominate Spurs on the back of an incredible performance from Kevin De Bruyne, the Robbies break down his impressive play and stamina (0:30), plus the guys discuss Ederson’s passing and Sterling’s goal scoring. Then, they look at the match from Spurs’ perspective (10:15) – was high pressing the right approach? With big wins from Palace and West Ham, Robbie and Robbie also discuss the “manager bump.” (19:00). And finally, R & R hit on Sunday’s matches (27:45) - West Brom v. Man United & Bournemouth v. Liverpool

Gary catches up with former Everton, Aston Villa, and England defender Earl Barrett to talk about the characters in the 1990s teams, preparing mentally to go up against great players, and what it was like to play in the same team as Paul McGrath.

After the depression of yesterday, here's something positive to bounce back with and yes this is Luke writing these synopses. Portsmouth triumphed gloriously in the FA Cup in 2007/08, laying to waste everyone in their path including a pathetic iteration of a Manchester United team on their own patch. Just when we all thought the summer of 2008 would be nothing to shout about given England's capitulation in trying to qualify for the European Championships, those beautiful boys in blue came through and warmed all of our hearts in fine fashion by lifting that FA Cup trophy high above everyone's heads on a balmy day in May at the Home of Football. The less said about what happened after that, the better. The Football Ramble, the original and best football podcast.

It’s still kicking off in that tunnel even ages after it actually kicked off in the tunnel as Man City’s continuing excellence makes Jose Mourinho get snippy, Mike Ashley and Amanda Staveley continue to thrash out Newcastle’s future and we see the welcome return of that sweet fifth booking as players look for time off over Christmas. We also try to give Sean Dyche the England job, Big Sam’s big grin widens further and El Diego is involved.

In at number 11 in our countdown is Steve McClaren and England's ill-fated attempt at qualifying for Euro 2008. New in the job, Steve was tasked with giving England their English identity back after Sven-Goran Eriksson, the first foreigner to hold the position, had ruled the roost for so long. His first assignment proved to be his undoing however as his team failed to impress, culminating in a disastrous defeat at home to Croatia on a windy and rainy night at Wembley. This was the first big event to occur after the formation of The Football Ramble back in April 2007 and in many ways set the tone for the years to come, both in shambolic England performances and The Ramble having to resort to humour to get through difficult footballing times.

The first of our countdown of the biggest moments, themes and events of the last ten years comes in the shape of World Cup 2010. The first tournament of its kind ever to be held in Africa, the world was treated to vuvuzelas, Bafana Bafana, yet another turgid performance from those Three Lions and Spain lifting the trophy. The boys don't let England's showing dampen their spirits though as they enthusiastically march down memory lane regaling all with their memories of the summer, including what it was like to be on the ground in Johannesburg.

Gary Megson displays some gigantic cojones after steering West Brom to a draw against Spurs at Wembley Hart Lane, a lightning powered footballer emerges onto the scene to lead England’s future and Everton continue their league wide benevolence. On top of all this we finally have at least partial details of Pete’s confusing and intriguing CV, Marcus gets credit for almost correctly predicting the future and a man called Spud saves the day.

Our guest this week is one of the central characters of 90s English football; Chelsea, Blackburn and England's answer to the infamous 'left sided problem', Graeme Le Saux. Discerning broadsheet reader and noted 'clever footballer', Graeme's career was a 90s rollercoaster ride through triumph, success and controversy. From scoring England's 18th greatest goal to washing his own training kit at Blackburn; we do our best to cover it all. We also have a mid-90s child's perspective on Tony Adam's alcoholism via the medium of poetry, Jason McAteer's social media porn star flirtation and some curious player descriptions from a 1990 Panini sticker album Hosted on Acast.

Jack Sessions hosts (@SessionsJack) the latest @purelyarsenalFP podcast in association with @FootballPurists with regular star special guests) Neil Shah (@neilby70) and Mark Harrison (@ArsenesGlasses_) and Michael Harris (@ChopperH5791). The lads discuss Arsenal's emphatic 2-0 win in the NLD vs Tottenham and chat in detail about a great team performance, big guns on fire, Mustafi's header and the "controversy", a Alexis' improvisation for the 2nd, a great defensive display, Ozil's quality, a mature 2nd half, the substitution of Laca for Coq, the Arsenal twitter/journo frenzy and media agenda against us, fans questions and so much more!

Even though they were just friendlies England have got us all worked up about the World Cup again as we chat about the draw, groups of death and a long-needed alternative England band. There are also fireworks in Peru, a far-from-perfect hat trick in Australia and a word from El Diego. Not only that, the Premier League is back, with the North London derby, Everton’s hunt for a new manager and a topless Marcus Speller, which though irrelevant is always welcome.
