Hugo Ekitike had been faultless since signing for Liverpool this summer, until last night. A second yellow card for removing his shirt saw him sent off and now he'll miss Liverpool's Premier League game with Crystal Palace, perhaps gifting his place in the team to Alexander Isak in the process. The blue part of Merseyside though were beaten in the same competition on Tuesday. Should a club like Everton be focusing on cup competitions more?

Arsenal snatched a last gasp equaliser against Manchester City at the Emirates, but it could so easily have been defeat for a second time against one of the Premier League's big boys already this season.

Alexander Isak could make his Liverpool debut against Diego Simeone's Atletico, with Slot aiming to slowly increase his minutes after his summer was spent on strike.

Monday night's eagerly-anticipated clash between Newcastle and Liverpool didn't fail to deliver, as five goals, a red card and a 99th minute winner from a 16-year-old settled the 'Alexander Isak derby' at St James' Park.

It's been a year of joy and turmoil for Crystal Palace. The up of winning the FA Cup, the down of being expelled from the Europa League, the high of Community Shield glory to the low of having their appeal rejected by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

On today's FSD, Niall and Marley discuss the mess that is the ongoing dispute between Crystal Palace, Nottingham Forest and UEFA around next season's Europa League place. Palace won the right to play in the competition through their FA Cup triumph, but part-owner John Textor's involvement with French side Lyon caused a breach of the rules regarding ownership, and Forest have been bumped into the Europa League, with Palace relegated into the Conference League. Is it a fair punishment for Palace to be turfed out of the competition they qualified for fair and square? Or is it a case of rules being rules and followed to the last detail? Evangelos Marinakis avoided a similar situation by putting his ownership of Forest into a 'blind trust' in order to comply with UEFA's rules, which seems like a convenient outcome. The lads go through the ins and outs of a sticky situation on today's podcast!

If the title of today's podcast sounds like a novel, then you've probably also been wrapped up in the big transfer narratives this summer. Nottingham Forest owner 'Mr Marinakis' has secure Morgan Gibbs-White to a new record deal amidst suggestions of a Spurs switch, but something was jarring about how it all unfolded. At least his future is sorted, though, something which can't be said for Alexander Isak. Does he start the season as a Newcastle player?

With plenty of transfer activity already happening across the Premier League this summer, why have Tottenham - who have made just one signing in West Ham's Mohammed Kudus - not brought in more players to support new boss Thomas Frank?
