On the agenda: Manchester United's legacy machine cranks into gear again, some confusion over the pronunication of Chelsea's new manager, a familiar sound in a mid-90s wrestling arcade game, unlikely common ground between River Plate and Coronation Street's Ken Barlow, a teacher breaks some football news to his class of Year 8s and a relatively deep data dive into Richard Keys' lesser-known catchphrase.

Dharmesh Sheth is joined by Jonathan Liew, Charlie Eccleshare and Charlie Wyett to reflect on the weekend's sporting action.We begin with Luke Littler's emphatic victory over Gian van Veen at Alexandra Palace, securing back-to-back World Darts Championship titles. Are we still underestimating just how good Littler is — and could he one day surpass Phil Taylor's record of 14 world titles?Attention then turns to the Premier League, as Arsenal edge Bournemouth 3–2. A dominant Declan Rice performance, including a brace, helped extend their lead at the top to six points in a fixture that saw them stumble last season following William Saliba's red card. Have Arsenal learned the lessons from last year's title run-in?Next, we turn our attention to the Ashes as England close Day One of the fifth Test. We cross live to Sydney to speak with Adam Collins, who highlights the key partnership between Harry Brook and Joe Root. The discussion also covers Usman Khawaja's retirement, with the Australian speaking about continuing to challenge racial stereotypes within the game.We then discuss Aston Villa's impressive form, which has kept them within six points of Arsenal. While Charlie isn't convinced they're in the title race, he's impressed by their performances following the modest work done in the summer.Finally, we're joined by Gary Cotterill, who reports on Strasbourg's 1-1 draw at Nice, before bringing the latest as Chelsea close in on Liam Rosenior.Sunday Supplement is a Sky Sports podcast.

Adam Hurrey, Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker entertain this month's listener entries for Mesut Haaland Dicks, as the Clichés faithful nominate their niche footballing fascinations and irritations. Among the selections are players whose name-based chants sound like they're being booed, the layout of seven-goal thrillers on score apps, the flimsy logic of “but they still had 11 internationals out there” and the unsatisfying spectacle of waiting for a ball to reach the edge of the D in 5-a-side. Meanwhile, the Adjudication Panel enjoy a superb tweet-and-blog salvo from Richard Keys.

Charlie Eccleshare has distinguished himself as one of the omnipresent and respected full time tennis writers on the globe, thriving as the sheer numbers of the like have dwindled. He files stories for The New York Times sports arm- The Athletic, on a weekly basis, and is a regular voice on the always great The Tennis Podcast as well. Charlie joined me from London and we spent an hour recapping the season, moving smoothly from the Murray-Djokovic partnership to the rise of Fonseca to the beautiful on court speech given by Anisimova at Wimbledon. We discussed all of the hot button topics of the day including scheduling, Saudi Arabia, and the trials and tribulations of Aryna Sabalenka. It was a tremendous chat.

After the final match of the ATP Tour season, Catherine David & Matt are joined by Charlie Eccleshare in Turin to discuss the latest edition of the Sinneraz rivalry, and another astonishing ATP Finals title for Jannik Sinner, who is now undefeated on indoor hard courts for two full seasons. Part One 00:00 - In depth analysis of Sinner's straight sets win over Alcaraz in front of a giddy Italian crowd. What makes Sinner so good on an indoor court, how big an impact has his new-found variety had on his match up with Alcaraz? And how worried should we be about Alcaraz's hamstring injury that seemed to plague him in the second half of the match?There's also discussion of the rivalry in general, where it goes from here and whether men's tennis is precariously reliant on its two biggest superstars. Part Two 54:33 - The team discuss a doubles title for Harri Heliövaara and Henry Patten, beating Neal Skupski and Joe Salisbury in the final, as well as a dominant showing generally for British doubles players at the year-end finals.

Plus there's a look ahead to the week ahead at the Davis Cup Finals in Bologna, where Matt will be reporting from on-site.Become a ⁠Friend of The Tennis Podcast⁠Check out our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠new merch shop⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!
