The second weekend of the 2021/22 Premier League season will forever be remembered for the second coming of Romelu Lukaku at Chelsea. Alice Piper is joined by Nick Wright, Ron Walker and Oliver Yew to reflect on Lukaku's emphatic second Chelsea debut at the Emirates Stadium, and what the display means for Thomas Tuchel's title challengers, as well as Mikel Arteta's winless Gunners…PART 1: Chelsea smashed their transfer record to bring Lukaku back to Stamford Bridge from Inter Milan but it already looks like money well spent after just one afternoon in north London. The panel examine Lukaku's performance, how easily he adapted back to life in the Premier League, and how he will be that focal point Chelsea have been craving through the coming season. Attention then turns to Arsenal, who have lost their opening two games of the season and were subjected to boos at half-time and full-time from their own supporters. With Man City on the horizon, the pressure is already on Arteta. PART 2: After Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Jurgen Klopp's comments on the danger of Premier League rule changes transforming football into more physical sports like rugby and wrestling, the panel discuss whether Jack Stephens did indeed foul Bruno Fernandes in the build-up to Southampton's goal against Man Utd, and whether the new interpretation of rules around contact have improved the game.PART 3: Danny Ings scored his first home goal for Aston Villa with a sensational acrobatic strike against Newcastle. But was it a bicycle kick or an overhead kick – and what's the difference? After Jack Grealish opened his Man City account in somewhat fortuitous style, we assess his start to life with the champions and how team-mate Gabriel Jesus positional change could free up space for a certain Harry Kane, who made an appearance in Tottenham's win at Wolves.

As the Premier League almost ceremoniously take the time to react to another Chelsea manager losing their job, Arsenal creep slowly up the table. Arsenal struggled to find the back of the net earlier in the season but Arteta has improved the team’s creativity by harnessing the fearlessness and hunger of the Arsenal youth in place of the seasoned and more expensive players in the Arsenal squad. Southampton have generally performed exceptionally since Hasenhuttl took over and sit high in the table. Both have been in good form recently, but this was a test for both given the mid-week fixture congestion. It was fascinating to see how each team adapted the team to deal with these demands and the questions posed by their opponents.Enjoy!

A depleted Saints side lost 2-0 at Leicester City on Saturday evening - we discuss all the fallout from the match. The main topic is the injury crisis - first-teamers including Jannik Vestergaard, Danny Ings, Oriol Romeu, Moussa Djenepo, Michael Obafemi, Nathan Tella, Nathan Redmond and Mohamed Salisu all missed out. To add to that, Will Smallbone picked up an injury at Leicester and we'll also be without Ryan Bertrand in our next Premier League game - at home to Arsenal - after he picked up a suspension following his 5th booking of the season. Also on the agenda, Jack Stephens' defending, the 'foul' on Ibrahima Diallo, the introduction of Shane Long, and much more. As we're just starting out this podcast, we'd really appreciate if you followed us on our social channels.

The latest edition of Total Saints Podcast sees us undertake our first 'squad assessment'. Ben Stanfield (Host) is joined by Glen de la Cour (League One Minus 10 Blog), Freddie Hunt (The Ugly Inside) and Simon Peach (Press Association) to chat about the strengths and weaknesses in the current Saints squad. In Part One (of 2) we focus on ‘the wrong end of the pitch’ - goalkeeping and defence! Is Alex McCarthy the long-term 'number one'? Is Angus Gunn developing or going backwards? Could Fraser Forster re-establish himself in goal - or will he move on this summer? Ryan Bertrand is our only noticeable left-back nowadays. But does he still have the hunger to play for Saints? Is he coming under any pressure from Jake Vokins? At Right-Back, with Cedric departing this summer, are we confident Kyle Walker-Peters is the best replacement? Can Yan Valery improve his concentration and consistency? Should we be looking to buy someone else? ....and then there's Centre-Back! Jack Stephens and Jan Bednarek seem to be progressing well, but surely we need to strengthen here? If so, with who? Can we sell Vestergaard and/or Hoedt? Should Wesley actually be given another chance? Is this the position where all/any transfer funds should be focussed immediately? So much to cover, across arguably the most concerning areas of the Southampton FC squad! Give it a listen and see what our panel think! Part 2 out soon….

First off, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. It’s the happiest time of the year or something. The truth is, it’s happier because Saints went to Villa Park and put three past a pretty terrible Villa. Jack Grealish scored a worldie that shouldn’t count because his socks are a disgrace. Danny Ings scored a goal either side of Jack Stephens heading home a JWP corner and the game was never really in doubt, though the last 15 minutes or so saw Villa get as into the game as they ever did. Saints left Birmingham well-deserved winners and leaped Villa in the standings, putting Saints out of the relegation zone ahead of the festive fixtures to come later this week. It was by far the best performance of the season. It had everything except a clean sheet for Saints fans to enjoy. Tougher tests lay ahead, but Saints can enjoy their Christmas outside the drop zone. Joining me to discuss the match and look a bit ahead to Chelsea and Crystal Palace is Tom Mason. Tom was on the show just 364 days ago, when Saints were coming off a similar result heading into Christmas. This time he joins me after returning to the south coast from Villa Park. You can follow him on Twitter @tom_mason18 and on Instagram @tmaso19. Though it’s far from my favorite holiday, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, from my family to my Saints FC family…. Alright… now it’s time for my wife’s work Christmas Party.

Daryl Grove gofundme- https://www.gofundme.com/team-daryl-grove Saints had a busy week (incoming transfers on deadline day aside) this week with the team hosting Crystal Palace midweek before traveling to Burnley for a 3:00pm GMT kickoff on Saturday. Saints entered the week even on points with both teams, and although the team drew both games, in the end the results were probably fair, all things considered. The team took two points from the matches, inching away from the relegation zone, remaining unbeaten in 2019, and somehow fans are still a little worried and found time to criticize some of the players, mainly Jack Stephens for a handball late on Saturday. All of that takes center stage on this week’s show when I spoke with Dan Adam, a Saints’ fan living in Malaysia (on Twitter @TwentyTwoRole and owner/admin of @PremWorldWide on Instagram).Given the time difference, we recorded the episode while about 60% of you were sleeping (That’s you, UK listeners), and I put together the rest of it before the “big game” here in the US so I could spend some time with my family, who really love American Football. Until the late touchdown I had more beers than there were points scored, and my attempt to continue the streak has made this writing a tad bit more difficult than normal. Anyway, if you don’t follow Prem Worldwide, you should. Dan does a great job and it’s a lot of fun to interact with the account and see some of the stuff he posts.

Episode 21 of the Saints FC Podcast covers the last five Southampton Premier League games, from the abysmal loss at Anfield, to the many reasons to be cheerful and hopeful from the games against Everton, Man City, Bournemouth and Arsenal. Pellegrino is finally working out how to make Saints tick, showing some tactical nous, and players like Pierre Emile Hojbjerg, Jack Stephens and Charlie Austin get their season going.
When it comes to turning great businesses into philanthropic legacies, there are two Ford families of note — the one from Detroit, and the one from Little Rock. It was Joe Ford, and later his son, Scott, who built a little telephone company in Sheridan, Arkansas — population 1,338 in the 1940 Census — into a $30-billion player in wireless — Alltel. After selling Alltel to Verizon, Scott Ford started Westrock Coffee and the Rwanda Trading Company as an exercise in capitalism. By paying Rwandan farmers fair value, creating a two-year training program for those farmers in agribusiness, and launching a new U.S. market for that coffee, Westrock already has put over $100 million into the pockets of Rwandan coffee farmers, and Westrock is just getting up to speed. Key Takeaways: [1:21] Scott is of ‘the poor Fords, from Arkansas.’ Scott’s grandfather Ford was a school administrator. Scott’s father, Joe, got advice from Jack Stephens. Hugh Willbourn, Scott’s maternal grandfather, bought a telephone company from the Stephens brothers and it became Alltel. Scott sold it in 2009 as the country’s fifth-largest wireless business. [3:26] The little telephone company that grew into Alltel started when Witt Stephens contracted with the nearest local telephone business to build a line out to Sheridan, to his mother’s home, so she could have a telephone. [3:43] If Witt and Jack Stephens hadn’t been willing to extend 100% credit without collateral to contractor Hugh Willbourn to buy their phone company, none of the rest of this story would have happened. Hugh was the contractor who set up the poles. [4:23] When people ask Scott why he’s involved in Rwandan coffee, he tells them that his father was the one survivor of three children in Depression-era rural Arkansas, and he relates to mothers in Rwanda struggling to provide life’s necessities for their children. [5:14] Scott saw that two Swiss investors were buying Rwandan coffee at as low a price as they could, maintaining poverty. In a moment of rage, Scott committed to start a coffee business and buy the coffee for as much as he could pay the farmer, and still make a profit. This was before he even knew if coffee grew on a tree or on a plant. [5:47] This was made possible by the sale of Alltel. Scott had succeeded Joe Ford as CEO in 2002. In 2005, he spun off the wireline business to concentrate on wireless. Scott details the history of the changing business and its success, including focusing on wireless growth. Funding was the challenge that ate most of Scott’s time in that period. [7:27] Scott recalls doing 100 transactions in that first 11 years, just to reposition the business to being a nationally competitive wireless company. [7:37] Scott comments on the light-touch approach the FCC had toward wireless at that time. If Alltel had had to work under the approach that later administrations brought to bear on wireless companies, or even at that time on the wired part of the industry, they might never have started their growth plan, which was to supply service to rural areas. [8:57] If Scott had not built up Alltel into a major wireless provider, he would not have been free later to buy an abandoned coffee mill in Kigali, Rwanda. [9:12] In 2004 or 2005, while CEO of Alltel, Scott, his wife, and another couple visited an orphanage they had been supporting. The President of Rwanda, looking for wireless networks for his country, invited the Fords and their children to dinner. [10:10] The Rwandan president and the Fords talked about the three freedoms of Western civilization that allow people to get out of poverty — religious, political, and economic freedoms. The President had aspirations of guiding his people out of poverty and even sharing these advances with other East African nations. He told of his vision. [11:19] The Rwandan president told Scott if he ever had the chance to help people learn how to make money, that’s what he would ask of Scott. Not charity, but education how to manage capital and make a profit. With that knowledge, the poorest of the poor would taste the benefits of capitalism and they would change that part of the world. [11:50] Scott kept that vision. Five years later, with capital from the sale of Alltel, Scott went to Rwanda to find someone to teach the principles of capitalism. On that trip, Scott created the coffee business. [12:13] Westrock has a mission of going beyond Fair Trade. Scott comments on Fair Trade and Rainforest Alliance. When Westrock Coffee started, they weren’t thinking of those principles. They were trying to get the most money for the farmers, meaning they had to get the most for the coffee in the commercial marketplace. Scott tells how he did that. [13:46] Westrock Coffee is on every farm with every farmer annually, educating and training in agronomy, bookkeeping, pruning, and fertilization. This has given the Rwandan farmers the fastest growing income stream at a farmgate price, of any agricultural commodity anywhere. Sustainability equals profitability. [15:11] Without profit in the core trading business, all the benefits wash away. Farmers take the benefit of their profit and invest it in the infrastructure of their community. Scott talks about how running a wireless business applied to helping him run a coffee business. [17:04] After nine years, Scott looks to double the business again in the next five years. He sees that as getting up to fighting weight. Mentioned in This Episode: Joe T. Ford Scott Ford Jack Stephens Alltel Verizon Westrock Coffee Company The Rwandan Trading Company

Southampton is becoming a truly global club (this has been happening for some time, but I'm slow to this, as I am to most things). A quick check of Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook reveals accounts claiming to support the club from all around the globe. Accounts from Nigeria, Argentina, USA, and Mexico all boast hundreds or even thousands of followers. This week I spoke with Bastian who manages the @Saints_Chile accounts on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. With little more than speculation on issues surrounding the manger and potential replacements, we focused more on him, the accounts and the personal side of things. We discussed the season and what it’s like to support from Chile, and other issues surrounding the club.

I was joined this week by Josh Kingdom, @JoshuaKingdom02 on Twitter, who, among other things, writes for @SaintsMarching_. This time of year is a bit weird for fans, myself included. The season is over, we’re uncertain as to who else will be leaving, staying, coming, or going around the club, and yet we’re trying to keep everyone up-to-date with what’s happening. That’s part of what makes Josh’s article so interesting. Amid all the speculation, he’s put together a “wishlist” of players who would fit our system if we lose players and would strengthen our squad if, as Les Reed suggested, we don’t sell everyone this summer. Be sure to check out his articles here and here, give him a follow on Twitter, and enjoy the show. Also, if you haven’t checked out the player reviews on the Ugly Inside YouTube channel, be sure to do so by clicking here and subscribing… they even have Pablo Zabaleta on an episode (the Jack Stephens episode).
