The Dugout is back for 2026! Jim Campbell from the Football Ramble returns to shake off the New Year's haze (and the Villa celebration hangovers) for a jam-packed episode.

Nwaneri's Dilemma: Do we stick, twist, or cash in on the teenage sensation while his stock is high? The Bournemouth Flex: Why a defensive howler didn't stop us from looking like Champions. The United Heist: Ruben Amorim's "lottery win" photo and the search for a manager brave (or crazy) enough to take the reins. City's Wobble: Are the juggernauts finally looking human without their Belgian King? Liverpool Looming: Why we're ready to welcome the Reds (and why the fear factor might be gone). Plus, giving Trossard his flowers, the Eze debate, and some spicy score predictions. Tune in, get comfortable, and let's get into it. Ciao for now!

Scott McTominay left a struggling Manchester United to become Serie A's Most Valuable Player, win the Scudetto for Napoli and be nominated for the Ballon D'Or - all in one year. Was he this good all along? Is he finally getting the respect he always deserved?This episode of Football Daily, hosted by football writer and Copa 90 presenter Eugene Noble, goes right back to the start of Scott McTominay's incredible story and explores the making of McTominay: How he grew from the Man Utd academy, to being taken under the wing of José Mourinho and performing on the international stage.We speak to the likes of Paul McGuinness and James Weir, coaches and players who knew him at the academy, as well as podcasters, pundits and fans such as Jay Motty, Joe Fischetti and Umberto Bernardo, who have tracked his career from Old Trafford to the Neapolitan sun.We also hear from football journalist Mina Rzouki about how Scott has transformed under Antonio Conte, as well as Scottish Legend and commentator Pat Nevin about how he is becoming a symbol for the nation in the blue shirt of Scotland. We even speak to Scotland head coach Steve Clarke about Scott's crucial role to the international team and a conversation that sparked Scott's career back into life.In 2026, McTominay is facing his biggest season yet: Napoli have a title to defend. They're back in the Champions League. And Scotland will attend their first World Cup since 1998. So, the question isn't just how Scott McTominay got here - it's how much higher can he go?

Man Utd closed out 2024 exactly how they started it: absolutely pathetic. The worst team in the Premier League, Wolves, walked into Old Trafford and looked right at home. They grabbed their first point since October 5th, and it came against us. At Old Trafford. Let that sink in.Tosin is completely done with Ruben Amorim's stubborn tactics and the fans still making excuses for this mess. Three wins in the last ten games. Academy kids thrown on as scapegoats while the system keeps failing. Even Matheus Cunha, who's been struggling all season, looked comfortable cutting through our defense.This isn't just frustrating anymore. This is a crisis. The results speak for themselves, and something has to change because this can't continue.Tap in for another painful breakdown of what's going wrong at Manchester United.

Arsenal return to the top of the Premier League after a 2–1 win over Brighton, but the performance once again raises familiar questions. The Gunners dominate large spells at the Emirates — racking up 2.8 xG, 24 shots and total territorial control — only to let the game drift into nervous territory late on, with David Raya forced into a crucial save to preserve the win.We break down a first half that should have put the game out of sight, including missed chances for Bukayo Saka and ongoing concerns around Arsenal's finishing. Martin Ødegaard scores his first goal of the season in trademark fashion, while Declan Rice adapts to an unfamiliar role and Arsenal's structure continues to generate chances without the ruthless edge to kill games.The second half sees a worrying 15-minute spell where Arsenal retreat, stop engaging high up the pitch, and invite Brighton back into the contest. We discuss Raya's intervention, the defensive adjustments that followed, and whether this “control then retreat” pattern is becoming a recurring issue.There's also frustration with refereeing decisions, including a controversial challenge on the goalkeeper and VAR inconsistencies across the weekend. We cover all the major talking points from Gameweek 17 in Whip Around the Grounds, with results from Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Aston Villa and more.In VARse, we analyse key officiating decisions from Old Trafford, the City Ground and Stamford Bridge, ranking what was contentious, what was ridiculous, and where the laws continue to be applied inconsistently.Finally, we look ahead to Arsenal vs Aston Villa. With Villa winning games while being outshot and outperforming their xG, and Arsenal struggling to convert dominance into comfort, we assess the tactical battle, injury concerns, likely line-ups, and what Mikel Arteta must get right this time around.Chapters:(00:00) – Arteta's Non-Negotiables Intro(01:40) – #ARSBHA Pre-Match, Injuries & the Return of Big Gabi(03:18) – Starting XI: Rice at Right Back?(04:52) – Stats, Arsenal Domination & Missed Early Chances(07:45) – Saka Shooting Volume vs End Product(12:12) – Ødegaard's First Goal of the Season(15:32) – Chances, xG and Why This Game Should've Been Dead(18:18) – Referee & Goalkeeper Challenge Controversy(21:42) – Second-Half Control & Set-Piece Pressure(24:42) – Brighton Goal: Freak Moment or Structural Issue?(27:26) – Fifteen-Minute Retreat & Loss of Engagement(28:06) – Raya's Match-Saving Intervention(30:02) – Martinelli's Impact, Late Chances & Full-Time Reflection(34:34) – Big Takeaways from the Brighton Win(38:37) – PT.2: Who Am I?

Big issues at Newcastle - A must win at Burnley, Man Utd debrief and what's going wrong?A flat, frustrating night at Old Trafford as Newcastle fall 1–0 to an injury-hit Manchester United. Ed and Olly pick apart another soft goal, a toothless attack, and an away form that's rapidly becoming a crisis. They dig into whether this is about tactics, mentality, recruitment, or all of the above, and what it says about Eddie Howe's evolving—or confused—identity for this team. There are a few bright spots, led by Lewis Hall's standout display, but attention quickly turns to a huge trip to Burnley that already feels must-win.

#952 | Manchester United beat Newcastle 1-0 at Old Trafford and nobody left feeling relaxed. Ed and Dharnish break down an exhausting win defined by one moment of quality and a lot of defensive survival. We talk through Patrick Dorgu's stunning volley, a first Premier League goal that settled the game early, before Newcastle spent the rest of the afternoon throwing everything at United. Injuries, makeshift selections, and long spells without the ball forced Ruben Amorim into a far more conservative second-half approach than planned. There's analysis of the changes after half-time and the decision to protect the lead rather than chase more goals. We also zoom out to the bigger picture: what this result says about United's season, Amorim's risk tolerance, and how January squad questions are becoming harder to avoid. 00:00 Introduction 01:59 First-half setup, tempo, and United's early control 05:17 Second-half siege mentality and defensive reshuffle 11:05 Individual performances 18:54 Amorim's in-game management and tactical compromises 36:27 Press conferences, messaging, and narrative 43:44 Wolves next and what this win means for the season If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

Hello! Mark and Andrew return to discuss Newcastle United's one-nil defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford. It was a frustrating night in the North West - and one where the Toon Army will feel angry they didn't come away with something. To be honest, they created very little but they dominated possession in the second half and should have hit Man United harder but failed to do so. So why didn't they?

⚽ A huge Premier League clash awaits as Newcastle United travel to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United in what promises to be a massive test for Eddie Howe's side.Join Paul and the team as they look ahead to the game and discuss:⚫ Team news, injuries & predicted starting XI⚪ Key battles across the pitch

After a busy week for Ruben Amorim following Kobbie Mainoo's brother protesting about the lack of playing time and/or opportunities to move away from the club and a defeat at Aston Villa, Rio is joined by Ste and Joel to dissect those points and the title race.Rio admits Kobbie is doing himself “a disservice” if he isn't getting onto the manager asking how he can get into the team and discusses with Ste whether there is a way back for the England midfielder at Old Trafford.Morgan Rogers had two game defining “world class moments” and after one of the trio admit they don't see what the fuss is all about, Rio breaks down the goals and analyses who and what should have done better.There's some advice for (and a defence of) Leny Yoro, admission that some of the current squad “aren't good enough” to cope with the defensive demands at Manchester United and a warning for Bukayo Saka who said that Arsenal were “in control” of the title race as they spend Christmas at the top of the table.

Bournemouth have a clear policy of signing young talent, giving them Premier League experience, and profiting from their departure. Whilst this formula is admirable, it leads to high personnel turnover, an ever-changing and uncertain squad dynamic, the constant need to retrain new recruits, and it puts pressure on recruitment to get the right players in. With Marcos Senesi being the latest player to signal his intent to move, we ponder whether Bournemouth's transfer approach potentially needs more balance, which in turn would create a greater amount of stability amid a perceived player "exodus". Sam and Tom review AFC Bournemouth's unbelievable 4-4 draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford, before unpacking the rest of the week's Cherries news, including... ▪️ South Stand enabling works will be commencing at Vitality soon! ▪️ AFC Bournemouth women have got some HUGE games ahead! -▪️ Vitality will sponsor AFCB's kit from next season!

#947 | Ed and Dan react to a breathless, chaotic 4–4 draw that managed to be both exhilarating and deeply exposing. They break down United's aggressive pressing, fluid attacking movement, and how the side functioned without a recognised striker, while also confronting the defensive fragility that turned control into volatility. The discussion moves through tactical trade-offs, shape-shifting between a back three and a back four, and the consequences of those choices under pressure. Individual performances are assessed in detail, including Amad's influence, Bruno Fernandes' authority, and Casemiro's role. There's also scrutiny of managerial decisions, the impact of Afcon, and what this match says about the limits of flexibility versus structure. The episode closes by looking ahead to Aston Villa, weighing likely selections, priorities, and how much adjustment this squad can realistically absorb. 00:00 First impressions from a chaotic 4–4

Manchester United scored four at Old Trafford and still couldn't win… because this one turned into pure bedlam.On today's Morning Espresso, we start with the College Cup final and an instant classic in Cary as Washington capped a dream postseason with a 3-2 overtime win over NC State to claim the first national championship in program history. The Huskies built a 2-0 lead, the Wolfpack roared all the way back to force extra time, and then Washington found the winner less than two minutes into overtime—celebration, video review, and all.Then we get into the chaos from Monday night in the Premier League: Manchester United and Bournemouth drew 4-4 in a game that swung three different directions and never stopped accelerating. United led, lost the plot, rallied late, and still had to settle for a point in one of the most entertaining matches of the season.And the big U.S. men's national team concern: Tyler Adams exited after five minutes with what Bournemouth suspect could be MCL damage in his left knee. We'll talk about what it could mean short-term, and why the bigger picture—2026—is what makes this so nerve-racking.All that, plus a quick spin through the rest of the global and domestic headlines in The Refill.

Fengum góða gesti í stúdíóið til að fara yfir leiki umferðarinnar.Úlfarnir skoruðu öll þrjú mörk leiksins á Emirates en töpuðu samt gegn Arsenal. Man City eru komnir í gang og setja pressu á Arsenal með 0-3 sigri á Crystal Palace. Liverpool sigraði Brighton 2-0 þar sem Mo Salah kom inn á strax í fyrri hálfleik við mikinn fögnuð stuðningsmanna. Aston Villa heldur áfram frábæru gengi og unnu glæstan 2-3 útisigur á West Ham. Chelsea unnu og Cole Palmer er mættur. Notthingham Forest vann Tottenham frekar þægilega 3-0 og Man Utd og Bournemouth gerðu 4-4 jafntefli í trylli á Old Trafford.

Tom White and Charlie Austin discuss the chaotic 4–4 draw at Old Trafford as Manchester United hosted Bournemouth on a blockbuster Monday Night Football. Was it the game of the season so far? Charlie highlights the defensive vulnerability of Amorim's side.We're joined by Manchester United content creator KG to discuss just how clutch Bruno Fernandes has been, as well as the situation surrounding Kobbie Mainoo, after his half-brother Jordan was photographed wearing a “Free Kobbie Mainoo” T-shirt.Next, we turn to Enzo Maresca's situation at Chelsea following a surprise cryptic statement at the weekend, when he said it had been “the worst 48 hours” since he took charge. Charlie feels the comments were directed at the owners, not the players — but does Maresca still have enough credit in the bank, or is the pressure already building for him at Chelsea? Darren from the Chelsea view says he's won two trophies and has a young side, which is improving all the time.Finally, we ask whether Aston Villa deserve to be third, examining Unai Emery's side and their remarkable overperformance of xG. Charlie labels xG a “nonsense stat,” while Villa fan Justin joins us to argue that Villa can sustain this form consistently, despite the numbers suggesting they should be lower in the table. Watch us live, Monday to Friday, 10am until Midday on Sky Sports News or listen to the podcast as soon as we come off air. To get involved you can send a voice note or message via WhatsApp to 07514 917075.For advertising opportunities email: skysportspodcasts@sky.uk.

They say things come in threes, so with Bournemouth making the trip to Old Trafford in December for the third season on the trot, are Cherries fans expecting to witness ANOTHER humiliation for the Red Devils? The last couple of 3-0 scorelines at Old Trafford came at a time where Manchester United were finding their identity. Now under Ruben Amorim, we're yet to be convinced that they've totally found it, but the stats show that their form is better, their players are better, and their season is better - and they're up against an Andoni Iraola site that hasn't won a game since October. How will this unfold? Sam and Tom are the Queens Park to look forward to a MASSIVE Monday night football... Thank you to everyone who has contributed to all our platforms.
