On this week's show we take a look at the latest list of the Digital Top 20 of African Football, released by RESULT Sports. North African clubs are dominating, with Al Ahly of Egypt at number 1, with 33m followers across all platforms.

On this week's show we ask whether African football would be better with no relegation. We hear from Andy Searles, a club chaplain in the US Major League Soccer, a franchise set-up, with no relegation and no promotion. The idea of having no relegation is because clubs invest a lot in stadiums and players, and the prospect of getting relegated soon after setting up a club would deter potential owners from setting up a club, and would hinder the development of football. Also Stuart looks at the final placings in the EPL, as Liverpool took third place.

Also Stuart with the latest in the EPL, and he tells us about Arsene Wenger's reflections on his time at Arsenal.
