A big week for Chelsea culminated in not only a Champions League position, but also European success in the UEFA Europa Conference League.

Niall and Marley are on hand to discuss the latest in West London, as well as the Blues' pursuit of Ipswich striker Liam Delap in this summer's transfer window.

The season is over, the dust is settling and it's a busy podcast as Niall and Marley digest it all. Chelsea won the champions league shootout at the City Ground, although Gary Neville wasn't there to see it, as Levi Colwill's goal proved the difference to send the Blues into Europe's premier competition. Aston Villa missed out on a second consecutive appearance in the same competition though, as a controversial call in their game against Man United saw Morgan Rogers' goal chalked out. Is there a silver lining for the Villans though? Elsewhere, Spurs lost again, Newcastle rode their luck and we finally discuss the worst Europa League final ever that took place last week.

Join us as we preview the final day of the 2024/25 Premier League season, with the 3 remaining Champions League spots up for grabs between Manchester City, Newcastle United, Chelsea, Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest. With Chelsea and Forest facing each other, that game looks tantalising as both clubs clash to secure a Champions League berth - whilst the equation is simpler for Newcastle and Man City. Villa have had a great season, but they still need favours from elsewhere in a gripping race which has come down to the very last game!

Wednesday night sees a massive game in Bilbao as Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur contest the Europa League final. There is plenty on the line for both sides, as Spurs chase a first trophy for 17 years, whilst Manchester United need the prize of Champions League football after their worst ever Premier League campaign. But Tottenham's domestic form has seen questions arise over the future of gaffer Ange Postecoglou, despite the result in Spain, whilst Manchester United's short term future could hinge on winning or losing in the Basque Country.

Manchester United are reportedly close to signing Wolves talisman Matheus Cunha this summer. Where and how does the Brazilian fit in to Ruben Amorim's plans ahead of a mammoth task at Old Trafford? United fan Joel finally rejoins us direct from Colombia to give his take on the news and his team's dismal Premier League season. Plus, we discuss whether the quality in the Premier League this season has dropped, or if teams are simply more competitive.

For the first time in their 119-year existence, Crystal Palace can call themselves FA Cup winners after a 1-0 win over Manchester City at Wembley on Saturday. The Eagles were inspired by a heroic Dean Henderson performance after Eberechi Eze's goal gave them something to hang on to in the first half, and Man City couldn't break down the Palace door despite their efforts. Elsewhere, Goodison Park hosted its final game before Everton move to "Hill Dickinson Stadium" - something that irked Niall in today's Get In The Sea nominations. The Toffees eased past miserable Southampton to mark the occasion with three points on a day where 100 former players were invited to say their goodbyes. Also over the weekend there was ups and downs in the race for the European places. Arsenal secured second while simultaneously making Newcastle's fate go down to the final day, Aston Villa and Forest earned vital points too, but Brentford threw away a lead to lose to Fulham in a local derby, all but ending their hopes of a Conference League place.

Crystal Palace take on Manchester City on Saturday in arguably the biggest game in their history. In 119 years of existence, Palace haven't managed to win anything more than a second division title, and are up against Pep Guardiola's Citizens, who are hoping to salvage something from a poor season by their standards. Niall and Marley discuss whether this means more to Palace than it does to City, whether the Eagles have the right manager and squad in place to pull off the shock, and whether City have still had a poor season if they win the jug.

Sean Dyche has been in the media saying that he could have had a greater impact on the Manchester United squad than Ruben Amorim has in his time at the club. Does he have a point, or is it wishful thinking from the former Burnley and Everton boss? Elsewhere, Newcastle United have announced plans to change the club badge which has been in state for almost 40 years. Is it something that's a priority for the club's new era? Who better to ask than Newcastle fan Marley on today's podcast.

Evangelos Marinakis is still making headlines as Nottingham Forest released a statement on social media about the seriousness of Taiwo Awoniyi's injury suffered at the weekend. But does it provide a suitable reason for him storming the pitch after the 2-2 draw with Leicester? Elsewhere, Everton are allowing Goodison Park to keep hosting football. The club have confirmed their women's team is set to play their games at the iconic ground, but is the news as good as it seems? And finally, Manchester United have revealed that they won't host a trophy parade if they win the Europa League. Instead, a low-key barbecue at the training ground will be held as Jim Ratcliffe continues to penny pinch. All that and more discussed on today's FSD!

Angelos Marinakis made himself the centre of attention on an action packed weekend of Premier League action, storming onto the pitch at Nottingham Forest's City Ground after late drama saw Nuno Espirito Santo's side drop points against Leicester. Elsewhere, Southampton finally got past Derby County's miserable record of 11 points by drawing against Manchester City, but did the scenes from the club go too far? In other news, Newcastle beat Chelsea to all but secure Champions League football, Arsenal and Liverpool played out a 2-2 draw and there was more misery for Spurs and Man United as they lost again.

A large chunk of the Premier League now has either new or redeveloped stadiums, and Everton are soon to join that list. But will leaving a ground as iconic as Goodison Park mean they forego some of what makes the football club great? Will expectations be exaggerated upon moving to Bramley-Moore Dock?

Arsenal are out of the Champions League at the semi-final stage, losing 3-1 on aggregate to PSG. Missed chances cost the Gunners again, with the lack of a recognised striker once again a topic of discussion. How different could this season have been for Mikel Arteta had they signed a proper number 9? On the other side of North London, Spurs travel to deepest darkest Norway and into the Arctic Circle to face Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League tonight.

Simone Inzaghi's Inter came through 210 minutes of enthralling football to eliminate Barcelona in a Champions League classic on Tuesday night and will play their second European final in three years in June. Davide Frattesi's extra time winner booked the Italians a date in the Munich showpiece, but who will join them? Arsenal travel to Paris to take on PSG in the other semi-final, a goal behind from the first leg. Is this crunch time for Mikel Arteta? Can the Gunners survive the formidable atmosphere at the Parc des Princes and pull off the comeback?

Trent Alexander-Arnold has confirmed he is to leave Liverpool this summer. But despite being an academy graduate who has won both the Champions League and the Premier League at Anfield, Liverpool fans are furious at his departure. With Real Madrid his likely destination, Trent is being called a 'Judas' and his decision to go has been met with distaste by supporters. But is that fair? Has TAA abandoned Anfield? Is he truly a turncoat?

The year was 2006. Mourinho was dominating the Premier League with Chelsea, Arsenal reached the Champions League final, and Myles Lewis-Skelly wasn't even born yet! Can the Gunners repeat what they did 19 years ago and get past PSG in the semis? It'll be a tough ask, but can they do what they did against Real Madrid? How will they cope against Paris without a striker? We try and unpick one of the biggest night's in Arsenal's modern history...

It was a busy weekend of football as Liverpool finally wrapped up the top flight title thanks to a crushing 5-1 win over Spurs at Anfield. Arne Slot's men are now tied with Manchester United on 20 top flight English titles as the rivalry continues. Elsewhere, Ipswich Town were relegated after defeat at Newcastle, but are they well set for a comeback next season?

One of English football's most iconic occasions is almost here, but can Nottingham Forest, Crystal Palace or Aston Villa make history on FA Cup semi-final weekend? Wembley plays host to our final four, of which 3 are looking to do something Man City are very familiar with, and that's make a major final. Can Palace win their first FA Cup ever? Can Forest complete a dream season? Can Emery bring Villa glory again? Or will City do what they always do? Niall and Marley look to answer those questions on this episode of FSD.

Another Arsenal draw means Liverpool just need a point against Spurs at the weekend to secure the Premier League title. That's 13 draws now for the Gunners this season, so have they mentally checked out of their league campaign to focus on their Champions League semi-final? Niall and Marley query whether Mikel Arteta has indeed placed full focus on PSG ahead of a massive 2 weeks for Arsenal.

FSD is back after the Easter break and there's a lot to discuss, with two new (or should that be old) names securing their top flight status for next season, as Burnley and Leeds secured promotion over the weekend. But with Leicester joining Southampton by dropping on Saturday, how do the Whites and the Clarets survive next season? Elsewhere, Manchester City recorded a huge last-gasp win over Aston Villa on Tuesday night, thanks to the much-maligned Matheus Nunes' 94th minute winner. Will they finish in the Champions League places after a bizarre season? Niall and Marley are on hand to discuss all that and more, including the confirmation that we will see a South coast derby next season, partly thanks to Mr and Mrs Murphy having a fumble 30 years ago...

Mikel Arteta recorded what was possibly his biggest win as Arsenal manager last night as the Gunners beat Real Madrid on their own patch to reach the Champions League semi-finals, where PSG await. Does this prove the Arsenal now have the mental fortitude to go and do something big? Elsewhere, Newcastle United's fine form continued as they battered Crystal Palace at home to go third in the Premier League. Can they go one step further and finish as runners up this season?! And finally, tonight sees Manchester United and Tottenham's seasons go on the line again as they face Europa League second legs, with Eintracht Frankfurt and Lyon out to pile more pressure on Ruben Amorim and Ange Postecoglou. Would defeat mean the end for the Aussie? All that and more discussed on the latest Football Social Daily with Niall McCaughan and Marley Anderson.

Aston Villa fans will be gutted they couldn't grab one more goal against PSG in their Champions League quarter-final second leg at Villa Park last night, as the Premier League side ended up crashing out of the competition on aggregate despite winning 3-2 on the night. But did manager Unai Emery get his substitutions and tactics wrong? We discuss how Villa came up short, as well as Arsenal's massive opportunity to reach the semi-finals.

Bet Swansea City fans never thought a Ballon d'Or winner would be buying a stake in their club, but it looks like Luka Modric has done just that. But why? What is going on with people like Ryan Reynolds and Tom Brady investing in English football these days?

You may as well hand Liverpool the Premier League trophy now, as another victory for Arne Slot's side coupled with Arsenal dropping points at home to Brentford means the Reds could clinch the title as soon as next weekend. Niall and Marley discuss why the weekend felt more about Mo Salah than the result, more shocking defending from Tottenham, and Andre Onana's embarrassing week at Manchester United.

Declan Rice turned into a set-piece master to score two fantastic free kicks as Arsenal dispatched Real Madrid 3-0 at the Emirates to take a huge step towards the Champions League semi-finals on Tuesday night. Mikel Merino also got on the scoresheet for the Gunners as Mikel Arteta looks to salvage something from a disappointing season. Elsewhere there was contrasting fortunes for Aston Villa, who succumbed to a powerful PSG side in the French capital. Morgan Rogers' goal gave the Villans hope, but sensational strikes from Desire Doue, Kvicha Kvaratshkelia and Nuno Mendes inspired the Parisians to the win. Niall and Marley discuss all that plus Liverpool preparing to hand two stars new deals and Nemanja Matic ruining Andre Onana in a war of words on today's Football Social Daily.

An action-packed Premier League weekend threw up plenty of talking points, but very few of those came in what has been described as the most boring Manchester Derby in years. Kevin de Bruyne's final Old Trafford test for City ended in a 0-0 bore draw with United, whilst Liverpool's defeat to Fulham - just their second of the season - couldn't be pounced on by Arsenal. Meanwhile, sorry Southampton saw their relegation confirmed, and they sacked Ivan Juric before we even had the chance to talk about it!

The latest instalment of the Merseyside derby didn't fail to entertain as James Tarkowski escaped a red card before Diogo Jota settled proceedings with the only goal of the game to move the Reds closer to the Premier League title. Arsenal won on Tuesday night to momentarily pressure Arne Slot's side, but it wasn't enough to cause the Slot machine to malfunction. Elsewhere, a Sandro Tonali unintentional screamer earned Newcastle a win over Brentford, leaving the Geordies in charge of the race for the top four, having played a game less than 4th placed Man City. And finally, Southampton moved within a point of finally matching Derby County's humiliating 11-point haul with a draw at home to Crystal Palace.

Niall and Marley are back and so is the Premier League! Domestic action has been missed but there's midweek action as we look towards the run-in, with 10 games to go. Man City's chances at finishing in the top four have been dealt a blow by the news that Erling Haaland is out for up to seven weeks, keeping the Norwegian out until around the time of the FA Cup final. Across Manchester, there's been rumours linking Bruno Fernandes with a move to Real Madrid, but with him being one of the few shining lights of a woeful United season, should Ruben Amorim entertain the thought of selling his captain?

The FA Cup took centre stage this weekend as Aston Villa, Man City, Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forest reached the final four. But would 'only' winning the pot be a bad season for Pep Guardiola? Elsewhere, another trophy is dividing fans as Newcastle's Carabao Cup win saw biblical scenes in the North East, with 300,000 people adorning the streets to celebrate the Toon's first domestic cup win in 70 years. But as this is the age of social media, the celebration police were out in force and tried to rain on the parade. But isn't the game about glory?

England's new manager began his tenure with straightforward wins over Albania and Latvia, with a host of new faces impressing along the way. However some problems remain, with square pegs being forced into round holes in Thomas Tuchel's lineups. Elsewhere, USA manager Mauricio Pochettino was pictured having a coffee with Daniel Levy, leading to speculation that he may one day return to Spurs for a second spell as boss. But is it adding two and two and getting five with Ange Postecoglou still hanging onto his job in the meantime?

History was made on Sunday night as Newcastle United ended almost 70 years of hurt as they won their first domestic trophy since 1955. The Geordies beat Liverpool 2-1 at Wembley to claim the Carabao Cup, two years after falling at the final hurdle to Man United.

Arne Slot's chances of winning a European-Domestic double in his first Liverpool season were dashed by PSG last night as the 6-time Champions League winners were knocked out in the last 16.

It has been a bonkers 24 hours for Manchester United fans. First a stark interview with co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe, who shockingly revealed the club could have potentially gone bust had he not taken drastic cost-cutting measures. The billionaire also admitted keeping Erik ten Hag and bringing in Dan Ashworth were expensive mistakes, but not as expensive as the £2bn outlay a brand new replacement stadium for Old Trafford will cost after plans were unveiled for a 100,000 seater ground this morning.

The Gunners' gaffer stormed out of a post match interview after his side's 1-1 draw against Manchester United, which all but gifts Liverpool the title! Niall and Marley discuss Arteta's antics, Bruno Fernandes' free kick which caught out David Raya, and if the Gunners have the guts to go again next season and win the Premier League.

Liverpool earned a narrow victory in Europe last night as Harvey Elliot's late goal proved enough to see off PSG in the French capital, but it was the Reds goalkeeper who earned the plaudits. Alisson denied just about everyone in blue at the Parc Des Princes, giving Arne Slot's side something to defend in the second leg.Elsewhere, attention turns to Manchester United and Spurs in the Europa League tonight, with Real Sociedad awaiting the Red Devils, keen to extend their recent misery. Is the competition something United should be targeting as winnable? Or is it all about continuing to adapt to the Ruben Amorim system? Niall and Marley discuss all that and more on the latest FSD.Keep up to date with us on our socials here: Twitter: https://twitter.com/FSDPod TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@footballsocialdaily Telegram Group: https://t.me/FootballSocial Learn more about your ad choices.

Mikel Arteta's Gunners finally found some form in front of goal as they put seven past PSV in the Champions League last night, leaving them firm favourites to go through to the quarter final stage. The last eight also looks likely for Aston Villa, who battled to a 3-1 win over Club Brugge in Belgium last night, thanks to super-sub Marco Asensio and an unbelievable goal line clearance from Tyrone Mings. Elsewhere, Liverpool take on PSG in the Champions League tonight looking to make it three from three for the Premier League sides. In domestic news, there are calls for Millwall's goalkeeper to be given an extended ban for his incident with Jean-Philippe Mateta, after their clash at the weekend resulted in the Frenchman needing 25 stitches to save his ear. But should the shot stopper be banned for longer with it being such a serious injury? Niall and Marley discuss all this and more on the latest Football Social Daily.

The last eight of the FA Cup has been decided after a dramatic weekend of fixtures which saw Man United and Ipswich eliminated on penalties and Newcastle knocked out thanks in part to Anthony Gordon's moment of madness. This week's Get in the Sea nominations mention the Newcastle man's actions as well as managers' tendencies to rotate their best goalkeeper. Niall and Marley also ask is it time the English clubs flexed their muscles on the European stage as Aston Villa and Arsenal resume their continental challenge tonight with visits to Belgium and the Netherlands.

It is looking more and more likely that Liverpool will be Premier League champions in 2024-25, after challengers Arsenal dropped points again whilst Arne Slot's side beat Newcastle to maintain a healthy lead in the title race. It's also looking like Ipswich, Leicester and Southampton will be returning to the Championship. So where will us EPL fans get our excitement from for the rest of the season?!
