Today, a new era begins. Marcus, Jim and Pete usher in the start of the Thomas Tuchel regime. COME ON ENGLAND! *swallows mic* Elsewhere, the Scots do a job in Greece and prove that there's only one Elgin, while Pete observes that Brian Kerr needs a hammock on Irish telly and Thierry Henry gets mobbed by Panama players on American telly. Plus, Jim witnesses another Arsenal injury and Alexis Mac Allister shares his favourite hobby. Maybe he WOULD get on with Pete... We’re going on tour!

What’s that noise? Is that the sound of Euro-trash floating from Lineker’s Bar? That’s right, Pete thinks it’s official: Jack Grealish is already planing his post-title win sesh. Marcus, Jim and Pete react to a huge weekend at the top of the Premier League as both Liverpool and Arsenal promptly put their special carton of Premier League celebration milk back into the freezer (more on that at the end of the show). Plus, has Thierry Henry started shrinking yet? Has someone in the Brentford area named their baby after Marcus Speller? And what happens when you bring a bottle of water to a whip fight?

Elsewhere, they share their most surprising player comebacks and Vish accuses Thierry Henry of looking 'weathered'. We’ll let you make up your own mind on that one.
