We sat down with Ben Bowman and Kish from Lilywhite Lab to dive into Tottenham's huge capture of Xavi Simons. We break down what makes him such a special talent, why his ball-carrying, creativity, and mentality set him apart, and how Thomas Frank could build a side around him. We also look at where he fits with Brennan Johnson, Mohammed Kudus, and the rest of Spurs' attack, what this means for breaking down low blocks, and how the signing changes our ambitions this season.

An early Carabao Cup on Tuesday saw Bournemouth schooled by a disciplined and well-drilled Brentford, a side largely crafted by outgoing gaffa Thomas Frank.

In the first of a two-part special, Jack sits down with Dan Kilpatrick, now an editor at The Athletic, to look back on his years covering Tottenham as a beat journalist. They discuss how the job changed as Spurs grew into a modern superclub, how the wider football media landscape evolved over the past decade, and what it was like reporting during the Mauricio Pochettino era — including an anecdote about a chance encounter with Poch and Jesús Pérez in Russia. Dan also reflects on Daniel Levy's deep involvement in all areas of the club, whether it's ultimately damaging, and shares his impressions of both Ange Postecoglou and Thomas Frank. Part two — where Dan answers your questions — will be out soon. For now, enjoy part one of this deep dive into Tottenham Hotspur with one of the most familiar faces in Spurs journalism.

We've started the season with a bang under Thomas Frank, beating Manchester City and showing the kind of tactical adaptability we've been crying out for. Mohammed Kudus and João Palhinha look like inspired signings, Richarlison is thriving, and for the first time in a while, we're genuinely excited to watch Spurs. But alongside that optimism is the familiar frustration with transfers. We came close to landing Eberechi Eze only for the deal to collapse, leaving us short of creativity with Maddison and Kulusevski sidelined. Joining us to make sense of it all is Dan Kilpatrick, Tottenham correspondent for The Athletic. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

What's the matter with America? We've been told for years about the dumb working class MAGA voter. That they are exploited by Trump, that their interests are the reverse of a self-interested Republican cultural or economic elite. But according to the iconoclastic Tablet magazine contributor Michael Lind, we've got it the wrong way around. MAGA Voters are anything but stupid, he argues. That's why they don't care what dissenting podcasters like Tucker Carlson think. Instead, they're making rational choices based on their material interests, not blindly following con-celebs like Carlson, Laura Loomer or Curtis Yarvin. The real Trump coalition consists of two groups that pundits consistently misunderstand: reliable Republican voters who will support any GOP presidential nominee, and more crucially, swing voters in swing states. Rather than following the latest ideological dramas between right-wing influencers, these supposedly swing-voting “low-information voters” are making practical decisions about their lives. So actually, Lind implies, echoing other contrarian American populists like Thomas Frank, there's nothing the matter with a United States that somebody representing the class interests of ordinary Americans couldn't fix. 1. Right-Wing Influencers Have Zero Real Political Power Podcasters like Tucker Carlson, Laura Loomer, and Curtis Yarvin may dominate online political discourse, but they have "next to no influence on actual policy." When they turn against Trump, there are no electoral consequences because they don't command actual voter armies—just online audiences.2. MAGA Voters Are Making Rational Economic Calculations The "low-information" swing voters who decide elections aren't following ideological media rabbit holes. They're high school or some-college educated people making practical decisions about their material interests, not consuming political content or caring about intellectual debates among conservative influencers.3. America Is Experiencing a Class War Between Managers and Everyone Else The real divide isn't left vs. right but between a highly credentialed "managerial elite" who control large institutions and an unlikely coalition of working-class voters and outsider entrepreneurs (like Silicon Valley founders) who resent bureaucratic control.4. Trump Rebuilt FDR's Coalition for the Republican Party Through a complete partisan realignment, Trump assembled the same geographic and demographic base that supported Democrats from Andrew Jackson through LBJ—while today's Democratic Party represents the Northeastern establishment that Republicans used to champion.5. The Solution Requires Rebuilding Civil Society, Not Better Politicians America's crisis stems from over-centralization and the collapse of intermediate institutions like unions, local political parties, and churches. Real change requires "democratic pluralism"—giving ordinary people power between elections through rebuilt grassroots organizations, not just voting for better candidates every few years.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Jack is joined by Phil in the wake of Tottenham's 2-0 win over Manchester City to reflect on why things feel so different under Thomas Frank. With the era of Lloris, Kane and Son now firmly in the past, it feels like the stage is set for a new generation of players to become the figureheads of the club. We dig into the brilliance of Pape Matar Sarr, his outstanding start to the season and why he still isn't quite being spoken of as one of the very best young midfielders in Europe. Joao Palhinha's arrival has brought a new level of steel to Spurs' midfield, giving freedom to the likes of Sarr and Bentancur to flourish. There's also chat about the Eberechi Eze deal that never was, whether his allegiance to Arsenal softens the blow, and the continuing frustration around how Spurs operate in the market. A weekend of positives, but as ever, still plenty to chew over. The show's theme is Ghost Cat by Gillen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

On this episode, Patrick and Neel take a look at Manchester City vs Tottenham and how Thomas Frank has impacted Spurs already. Then, Nuno Espírito Santo and Nottingham Forest are in a disagreement over their recruitment, but does his strategy make sense? Next, they look at Crystal Palace's options to replace Eberechi Eze and wrap up the episode discussing Real Madrid's rough start to the season, their inability to create goals from open play, and how they differ from Barcelona.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Broadcaster Russ Williams, Jason McGovern and Patrick Tyrant as Palhinha marked his first start for us in the Premier League with a goal as we stunned City at the Etihad again on Saturday. The midfielder was magnificent in a complete team performance and was joined on the scoresheet by Brennan Johnson as we forged into a 2-0 lead in the first half. Once again, our defensive structure was impressive but it wasn't just about sitting in - the final shot count was 12-10 in our favour and there is no doubt we were the deserved winners of this encounter - our third win in five at City. We also wrapped-up the very latest transfer news during this summer transfer window with only a handful of days remaining to back Thomas Frank in the market.

Gameweek 1 is nine tenths done and though there are some outstanding scores out there it has been a tough weekend for many FPL managers with a number of popular FPL assets blanking. All 9 games covered in detail and a theme from the weekend is a number of cheap midfield options performing well, and none have attracted more attention in the FPL Community than Manchester City's Tijani Reijnders, who is already up to 5.6 and likely to see continued investment. So was his dominant performance at Wolves a one-off or a sign of things to come? Antoine Semenyo and Hugo Ekitike are also early price risers following returns in an exciting Friday opener where there were mixed returns for FPL managers. Plus, players on radar for those on a Free Hit in GW2 feature not just Arsenal, Bournemouth and City assets, but those from Chelsea and Villa who blanked in 0-0 draws could be worth keeping ahead of respective trips to Brentford and West Ham who both conceded three on the road. So too, did Burnley, and there was more tactical variety on show from Thomas Frank's Tottenham who may well change system again at the weekend when they go to The Etihad.

Jack is joined by Lara to look back on Tottenham's opening day win over Burnley, where Richarlison lit up Thomas Frank's debut with two superb goals including an outrageous bicycle kick.

We also dive into the latest twists in the transfer market, from the rollercoaster pursuit of Eberechi Eze with Oliver Glasner insisting he is staying put at Palace, to Spurs' ambitious chase for Savinho at Manchester City.

Host Ricky Sacks was joined by Actors TJ Ramini, Darren Hart and Jim Via Oh So Spurs as our first-ever appearance in the UEFA Super Cup ended in a heartbreaking penalty shootout defeat to Paris Saint-Germain after a dramatic night in Italy on Wednesday. In what was Thomas Frank's first competitive game as our Head Coach, we looked like we were going to add more silverware to the Europa League trophy we won three months ago, leading the Champions League winners 2-0 with five minutes to go. A goal in each half from defenders Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero – leading the team out after being appointed club captain – coupled with an outstanding display put us in control at the Stadio Friuli, home of Udinese. But PSG dug deep and levelled with two late goals, Kang-In Lee scoring with five minutes left before Goncalo Ramos equalised in the 94th minute. The game went straight to penalties and once again we led 2-0, but we couldn't hold onto our advantage again and ended up losing 4-3 on spot-kicks. The French champions only returned to training recently having reached the FIFA Club World Cup Final during the summer, but fielded eight of the starting 11 that began the Champions League Final against Internazionale, which they won 5-0. However, we produced a superb performance. All over the pitch we were excellent, defensively sound, snapping into tackles and closing up the gaps in midfield and dangerous in attack, while the pressing of the team in all areas was outstanding, not allowing PSG to get into their stride until the final moments when they dragged themselves back into the contest to force the shootout.

Welcome back to our show where we once again have a packed show where we start with our goodbye to Sonny, then onto our discussion about the UEFA Super cup final defeat and the sad and almost inevitable fallout following it. MANY people messaged last week shocked we did not talk about Sonny, the plan was always to talk this week when we could dedicate a section to it and so we did... also gave us time to make sure we would not cry in your ears! Our chat about Thomas Frank gets interesting... we have very differing views but one thing we do both agree on is if you are being racist ... jog on... not welcome... no place for that here, at our club or society in general. Anyway, you all well? Good summer? Feel ready for the Premier League to get going again? We are doing our predictions this week so they will be on the next show... admins normally get this shocking wrong, so should be fun ha ha
