Are Eddie Howe's problems growing as he tries to fit Nick Woltemade into Newcastle's established system, and do they lack the energy that drove last season's success? Manchester City look like they're finally back — but just how much of that revival is down to the man in form, Phil F***ing Foden**? Enzo Maresca raises eyebrows with a cryptic post-match interview that hints at a lack of backing from the ownership. Is support behind the scenes starting to crack?

🎙️ BRIT SIX 2025/26 – Ep. 13 El podcast del Big 6 de la Premier League 🇬🇧⚽️ 📊 Decimotercera y Decimocuarta jornada: 🔴 Arsenal: El líder sigue firme. Primero, un 1-1 ante Chelsea en Stamford Bridge: un clásico intenso, con control gunner y superioridad numérica, pero sin la contundencia necesaria para liquidarlo. Luego, un sólido 2-0 ante Brentford en el Emirates, con goles de Mikel Merino y Bukayo Saka. Un triunfo de carácter: Arsenal golpeó en los momentos justos y fue fiable atrás pese a las ausencias. 🔵 Manchester City: El City mostró su versión más eléctrica. Victoria 3-2 ante Leeds con doblete de Foden -un gol agónico que evitó la sorpresa en el Etihad-. Días después, un 5-4 de locura en Craven Cottage: Haaland alcanzó los 100 goles en Premier y Foden volvió a ser decisivo. Equipo explosivo arriba, vulnerable atrás… pero que sigue sumando. 🔵 Chelsea: Empate con personalidad ante Arsenal, jugando gran parte con diez hombres, pero una caída durísima 3-1 ante Leeds que volvió a exponer las dudas del equipo de Maresca. Dos partidos, dos realidades completamente opuestas. 🔴 Manchester United: Victoria trabajada en Londres ante Crystal Palace: reacción tras el penal inicial de Mateta y goles de Zirkzee y Mason Mount para dar vuelta el marcador. En la fecha 14, dejaron escapar dos puntos en Old Trafford con el 1-1 ante West Ham, en un partido que tenían bajo control. 🔴 Liverpool: Triunfo 2-0 ante West Ham en Londres, con goles de Alexander Isak y Cody Gakpo, para recuperar confianza. Pero días después volvió la frustración: 1-1 ante Sunderland en Anfield. Dominio, ocasiones… y falta de punch en el tramo final. ⚪️ Tottenham: Sensaciones preocupantes. Derrota 2-1 en casa ante Fulham y empate 2-2 en St. James’ Park, donde los Spurs remontaron dos veces gracias a un doblete de su capitán Cristian Romero. Carácter, sí… pero muchas dudas en el rendimiento colectivo. 🎙️ Adrià Jiménez Muñoz, Javi Parra Peña, Víctor Diéguez, Adrián Bernárdez, Andrés United & Rubén Calvo. ---- Si quieres tener acceso exclusivo al podcast (y ayudarnos con el proyecto), pueden ingresar aquí: https://www.patreon.com/britmaniaradio

Patrick and Neel open with Barcelona's win over Atletico Madrid and dig into why Atleti started well, why they collapsed after scoring, and how Raphinha and Pedri change Barça's ceiling. They also break down what Simeone's team is missing and whether they can stay competitive with Spain's top two. Then it's onto the Premier League, starting with Sunderland's brave performance at Anfield and why their approach is working in a season full of chaos. Leeds' shift in structure, Daniel Farke's reputation, and their big win over Chelsea come next, followed by a deeper look at Manchester City's issues out of possession and why their current squad build leaves them stuck between pressing and blocking deep. The episode closes in Scotland with Celtic's appointment of Wilfried Nancy. Patrick and Neel walk through his coaching journey, his style of play, and what it might take to implement his system quickly in a tight title race.

Rundene kommer tett som hagl i adventstida, men Jon og Torkel kom seg i studio sent torsdag kveld. Her går de igjennom mange gode lytterspørsmål, og det er ikke å legge skjul på at Foden er brennhet. Ny runde med frist på lørdag, og har du kvaler inn mot helga, er det vel verdt å bruke en halvtime på podden her.
With Foden already in place I'm likely selling Semenyo to one of these high upside midfielders. ✅ Join the Home of Fantasy Football and get 40% off with this link - https://bit.ly/FFScoutGianni ✅ Use code FFSGIANNI5 for an additional 5% off your first purchase _________

In our latest Leeds, That! podcast episode we dive into the Manchester City 3-2 Leeds thriller at the Etihad (29 Nov 2025). The Whites produced a spirited comeback from 2-0 down – goals by Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Lukas Nmecha – only for Phil Foden to sweep home a late winner in stoppage time. Was it a harsh defeat or a sign of real progress? We break down the drama and full context. We analyse Daniel Farke's tactical switch to a 3-5-2 at half-time that sparked the Leeds fightback. Calvert-Lewin's impact off the bench (including winning the penalty for Nmecha's equaliser) and City's response – including Foden's early strike – are all on the table. This is your full Premier League reaction: from Leeds' resilience to how they matched up against Guardiola's superstars. With fan passion and humour, we debate whether the performance gives us belief – or just more heartbreak.
Dharmesh Sheth is joined by Jacqui Oatley, Miguel Delaney and Carl Anka to reflect on the weekend's sporting action.We begin with Man City's win over Leeds. Pep's side left it late with a last-minute Foden winner, but are they truly convincing? Carl finds their style this season fun to watch, yet a bit too chaotic to win the title.Next, we turn to Spurs' defeat to Fulham — their third loss of the week — and the boos told the story, as fans watched a side that has won only once at home all season.We then look at Liverpool, who have lost nine of their last twelve, and ask how realistic it is that the club makes a change with Arne Slot?Next, we move to The Ashes. With the second Test starting on Thursday, we speak to Adam Collins about how the Australian press views England's inconsistency — and what they must do to avoid falling 2–0 behind.Finally, we turn to the Premier League title race with Chelsea vs Arsenal. Miguel is impressed by how suffocating and controlling Arsenal have been in the second halves of games. But while Chelsea aren't as polished as Arteta's side, can they genuinely challenge for the title? Carl believes it's Arsenal's time.Sunday Supplement is a Sky Sports podcast.

Welcome dear listener to the 22nd episode of the 7th season of First State Kopites. I'm Paul and today I am joined by Enrique and Daz. The Reds follow up their win over Real Madrid with a disappointing loss at the Etihad (which for once appeared to be lively)Part one - Always want to start with the comments we made at the start of the season - we should not be picking on any of these boys on the basis of what they went through this summerI've seen this defeat described as us being blown away, thrashed, dismantled - just a few of the over the top descriptions from our defeat to City where the xG was even without the fucking ridiculous penalty (0.72 to 0.61). Less than a year ago, City were defeated, overawed, consigned to defeat by the same outlets and the xG was 3.86 to 0.51 in our favor. Proof if proof was needed that overreactions around the Reds gets clicks - then there's our own mad fan base.The actual game - personally can't get past the officiating. And the easy dismissal of goal related events in such a low scoring game.The penalty and the mad 200x zooming in - cf. the non-penalty at Brentford. Or even the studs up challenge at Anfield in 2024. Grating to hear the Manc accent announcing the penalty., The offside…. Only the Reds get goals disallowed like this. How can the linesman call this? Can I mention Bernardo Silva and his foul countThe half baked offsides being flaggedThe inconsistencies - Wirtz can't expect fouls like that in the Premier LeaguePerformances - people too willing to bury everyone. Ibou does look a step off. Confidence, distraction? Isolated in the press.Doku - ‘all fart and no poo' - scores his first goal since January. Not sure what else Foden, Cherki and Haaland didReview has questions on the out of possession plan - are we on the same page?Being played like it's a cup final. Is Slot being too passive?Making it too easy? Lots of pressing but not coordinatedPart two - Mindset going forward:No one that we play till Arsenal has the exceptions of most of the teams we've played so far. Forest, West Ham, Sunderland, Leeds(?) and Brighton in the next 5. With PSV at home and Inter away.Points max - we could get 99! I think the no draws thing is interesting. Few teams have won the league with 5 losses. So, in summary, this loss carries the weight of the previous ones, but looking at the numbers, we don't believe Liverpool are that bad, and that there's plenty of cause for optimism going forward. We'll be back with a preview of Forest and PSV. Thanks to Daz and Enrique for joining me, Paul. And most of all, thank you dear listener for joining us.If you enjoyed the pod, please share it with a friend.

They dissect the tactical setup, the unchanged XI from Madrid, and how City's surprise use of Nunes, Doku, and Foden created overloads in midfield. Hamzah breaks down Guardiola's shape, explaining how the pentagon midfield and narrow wingers strangled Liverpool's control, while Dan compares the attacking network to Liverpool's overreliance on Salah last season.

(1:06:35) Manchester City and Foden beat down on Dortmund. (1:51:03) A debate on whether La Liga is washed and comparing the EPL to La Liga. (2:04:53)
Le Barça a concédé le match nul sur la pelouse de Bruges 3-3 en Ligue des champions. La formation de Flick a encaissé 14 buts sur les 7 derniers matches toutes compétitions confondues. La défense est-elle effrayante ? Est-ce une question de tactique ou de qualités de joueurs ? Comment progresser ? Le retour en forme de Lamine Yamal est-il le seul point positif de la soirée ? De son côté, Manchester City s'est imposé 4-1 face à Dortmund avec un grand Phil Foden. Le collectif de Guardiola se met-il en place ? Foden en est-il la clef ? Faut-il installer le duo Foden-Cherki derrière Erling Haaland ?
Matt and Evan sit down to go over a very congested league table and the most recent gameweek. They talk City bouncing back through Haaland and Foden, Liverpool getting it done against Villa, Arsenal continuing their trudge to the title, and United's draw against Forest before going over the next week of games. Anyways, thanks for listening and make sure you check us out on socials @TheCutback_ on Twitter and @The_cutback on Instagram. Enjoy!

Gabriel Martinelli equalised in the 93rd minute to rescue a point for Arsenal, but should it have been more? Did Arteta's cautious lineup against Man City cost Arsenal a vital win in the title race? With Liverpool now 5 points clear, is the Premier League slipping away?For the first time in over 600 games, Pep Guardiola went full-on park-the-bus against Arsenal. He subbed Nathan Ake on for Foden, Haaland off for Nico Gonzalez and switched to a back five. What does this new approach say about Man City's future under Pep?Chelsea lost again this time 2–1 at Old Trafford. That's now back-to-back defeats after also losing to Bayern Munich in the Champions League. Will Chelsea's wider strategy derail their season?Last week, Jamie Carragher said Harry Kane is England's greatest ever striker. At the same time, Erling Haaland broke another Champions League record by becoming the fastest to reach 50 goals in just 49 games. And don't forget Liverpool spent £130 million on Alexander Isak to help fire them to the title. So today on The Club, we're asking: who is the best striker in the world right now?Rory, Adam and Buvey are in the studio to discuss all this and more in the latest episode of the Club.
