Mauro Icardi

There is only one place we can start today’s show: the Turkish Süper Lig. Despite Mauro Icardi’s penalty disaster last night, Pete tells Marcus and Andy that the original penalty taker wasn’t in the wrong. Yep. We also suckle on some sweet, sweet Carabao, as Exeter claim a scalp over Luton - but how much hair was left? Plus, if Leicester beat Liverpool, will Harry Winks get an England call-up?

International football is back, people! Marcus, Luke, Andy and Vish discuss reports that the FA are eyeing up Pep Guardiola with Gareth Southgate set to leave after the Euros… and quickly decide that leaving Pep to his own devices for months on end would be a terrible idea. We also discuss Mauro Icardi’s new car and Michael Owen reaching new levels of pointlessness. And there’s the small matter of Jordan Henderson’s first interview since moving to Saudi Arabia - we have an honest conversation about him and his England selection!

Marcus, Jim, Andy and Luke preview a big ol’ weekend of the FA Cup! Jim brings a troubling Mauro Icardi update, Roy Hodgson swoops down onto the pitch at Craven Cottage, and there are stunning revelations that Marcus once watched an entire Scottish Cup final in John Lewis’ TV section. Plus, can Duncan Ferguson try to convince King Charles to become a Forest Green fan? And will his sausage fingers be allowed through the turnstiles?
