Jonjo Shelvey

Newcastle kicked off their lads holiday to the Middle East in the appropriate fashion, with a Jonjo free-kick snatching some perhaps undeserved points at Leeds. Kate, Jim and Pete pore over more regulation struggles, as Josh Sargent bought some over-inflated sense of American optimism to Norwich while Watford struggled. We also check in with another Hakim Ziyech worldy and eat some of Pete's earwax. Yep.

Jonjo Shelvey's return to Liverpool reminded the Anfield faithful what they've been missing: 20-yard screamers, misplaced passes and a general lack of impetus. Sign me up! Marcus, Andy and Jim browse another porous Newcastle performance and a spirited point from Rafa's cut and shut Everton. We also look ahead to the Nations League's glorious return and wonder just how English football continues amidst further cancellations - all on today's Preview Show, sponsored by Betway.

Newcastle's bunch of ragtag mercenaries probably saw yesterday's tussle with Tottenham as a chance to show the new owners what they're all about. So: Callum Wilson scored, Allan Saint-Maximin danced down some blind alleys and Jonjo Shelvey was sent off after 20 minutes. Standard. Jules, Luke and Pete blast through that and some other cracking games from the weekend, as Wolves and the Foxes complete outrageous comebacks and Liverpool's relentless form continued. Plus a steward scored with a dildo - make of that what you will.

Another Premier League season comes to an end! We learn that Pep Guardiola can cut it in England, learn of Alan Shearer’s unorthodox stress relief methods and say our temporary goodbyes to Arsene Wenger, Michael Carrick and probably Antonio Conte. Elsewhere, absolute banter-volcano Marcus Speller makes a final push for Jonjo Shelvey to be on that plane, Jose Mourinho consolidates his power and Pete bathes in a glorious Newcastle win.

What a sparkling end to a vintage title race! We look back over West Brom winning the title at Old Trafford (for Man City), Southampton’s latest indignity and Thierry Henry’s sparkling beard oil. Elsewhere there’s Mike Dean at the World Cup, a glittering future for Brendy Rodgers and, would you believe it, talk of Jonjo Shelvey getting an England call up. It just won’t go away.
