In the latest Scouser Tommies episode, Jim Boardman and Jay Reid look back at Liverpool's lucky 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest and ahead to both the Champions League draw and a run of crucial, supposedly winnable fixtures. But with LFC 25-26, how winnable will they really be? Jim and Jay dissect the narrow (and let's be honest, fortunate) victory, voicing concerns over a “dysfunctional” display lacking spark and creativity. Jim questions the wisdom of giving players time off when tactical work feels overdue, while Jay criticizes Arne Slot's limited rotation and reliance on a tight core of players, suggesting Liverpool still lack a clear identity. The duo discuss Slot's reluctance to trust youth, praising 17-year-old Rio Ngumoha for his fearless cameos that bring the directness missing from the regular starters. They also vent about “traffic warden-level” refereeing and dubious VAR calls, wondering if Slot's patience-based tactics, which seem to consist of letting opponents tire, are a risky break from the club's proactive traditions. Looking ahead, they ask if the FA Cup is Liverpool's best shot at silverware, remain skeptical about Champions League progress, and stress that the coming League run against West Ham, Wolves and Spurs is a must-win stretch to secure a top-five finish. Can Liverpool finally deliver a performance as convincing as their ambitions? As always, there's a look across the park to the docks and plenty to laugh about from the old neighbours, with Jay pointing out one thing they are definitely the masters of.

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Liverpool fan Dan Lord and West Ham fan Chris Stone to discuss the latest at their clubs ahead of Saturday's meeting at Anfield which could have big implications at both ends of the table. Liverpool are hoping to secure Champions League qualification for next season and consecutive 1-0 away wins has them in contention to do so, but could they be distracted by other Cup commitments? West Ham remain 18th, but have lost one in six and have Nottingham Forest and Tottenham in their sights, there's discussion on the battle to stay up and what The Hammers may need to escape - and there is reason from both perspectives to suggest in the immediate West Ham could cause a surprise on Saturday. Plus, all the key FPL assets covered, with Liverpool very much on mind with a great immediate run of fixtures. There's coverage on Virgil Van Dijk, Ibrahima Konate, Dominik Szoboszlai, Florian Wirtz, Mo Salah and Hugo Ekitike. But FPL managers would be well advised to keep Hammers assets on mind, with Mads Hermansen, El Hadji Malick Diouf, Matheus Fernandes, Crysensio Summerville and Jarrod Bowen all giving reason to monitor.

Get more from Analytics United: https://www.patreon.com/AnalyticsUnited With West Ham United battling to maintain Premier League status, is a hard-fought 0-0 draw against Bournemouth enough? Is it a point gained or two points dropped? This week on The West Ham Breakdown, Cal and Jack dive deep into the tactical nuances of a game that was more than just a bore draw. They discuss why this performance was a symbol of West Ham's evolution from leaky to resolute and explore how the Hammers managed to completely neutralise one of the league's most aggressive pressing sides, limiting Bournemouth to the fewest high regains they've achieved so far in 2026. Cal and Jack break down how West Ham's rotations affected Bournemouth, highlighting Mads Hermansen's role in disrupting Bournemouth's man-to-man press, and how the midfield flexibility of Mateus Fernandes, Soungoutou Magassa and Tomáš Souček left the Cherries looking lost. They also discuss West Ham's relegation rivals, including a look at Spurs' recent struggles and why the underdog narrative might just be the catalyst Nuno needs to carry the Hammers to safety.

Suj and James fared very differently again in FPL in GW27 as clean sheets were bust, well owned players flopped but one hauler for James in Nico O'Reilly made the difference; but there is no doubt as James even concedes, that there was big slice of luck that he even still owned him. That was the highlight of a weekend for James, which ended with another North London Derby humbling as Tottenham continue to look nervously over their shoulder at West Ham and Nottingham Forest, who both failed to score but were unlucky to do so. There's a much promised look at Rayan and comparison to other midfielders in a similiar price bracket. Bournemouth along with Brentford, Fulham and Liverpool assets are likely to be popular this week, should Arsenal players be binned despite Sunday's comfortable win, Chelsea's brilliant fixture run is over and they slipped up against Burnley, should their assets including the in-form Joao Pedro be moved on too? All the games covered, the OOP not called O'Reilly catching the eye despite a blank and lots more...

Ander Iturralde da la bienvenida a Rafa Pastrana y Hugo Sancha para analizar todo lo ocurrido en un frenético fin de semana en la Premier League...Empezando por el por fin brillante triunfo del Arsenal, en el North London Derby, contra el Tottenham, para reafianzarse como el líder de la competición; pero cuya estela sigue el Manchester City tras derrotar como prácticamente siempre y últimamente más al Newcastle; como últimamente el Liverpool no ha podido dejar de sufrir contra el Nottingham Forest, indistintamente de su entrenador, pero que esta vez se resolvió con victoria del vigente campeón de la Premier League; de la cual se convirtió, en solitario, en el jugador con más partidos jugados de su historia James Milner en la victoria del Brighton contra el Brentford; mientras que otra de las sorpresas fue el Burnley rescatando un corajudo punto de Stamford Bridge contra el inevitablemente serpenteante Chelsea; cosa que también pudo hacer el Aston Villa, pese a que hubiese esperado ganar, pero así es la vida con tantos lesionados claves y más todavía cuando te visita el actual Leeds United; mientras que el actual West Ham es capaz de hacer partidazos contra el Bournemouth pero, si bien no perdió, sin lograr de rematarlo en victoria; algo que sí pudo hacer el Crystal Palace, envuelto en su presente crisis existencial, contra el Wolverhampton; pero no el Sunderland, atrevesando un camino bacheado que ya ha comenzado a bajarle de su pedestal, perdiendo contra el Fulham; en Championship, mientras tanto, tuvimos de todo un poco y un poco de todo con el Coventry y el Middlesbrough todavía en ascenso, la victoria del Wrexham, el descenso confirmado del Sheffield Wednesday, la llegada de Gary Rowett al Leicester; antes de terminar con una nueva víctima que se ha cobrado la Superliga Europea de fútbol y mucho más.Apoya que Alineación Indebida pueda prosperar, accede a todo nuestro contenido premium y a nuestro server de Discord suscribiéndote por tan sólo 1.00$/1.00€ en: https://www.patreon.com/posts/151425089Además...

Nottingham Forest lost 1-0 to Liverpool in Vitor Pereira's first Premier League game in charge in agonising fashion after Alexis MacAllister scored a late, late winner. Forest had seen West Ham draw with Bournemouth on Saturday as the gap to the relegation zone was trimmed to two points and having played well at the City Ground the gap remains the same. Forest will rue not taking advantage of a strong first half before fading after the break. Matt Davies is joined by Simon Fotheringham and Paul Morley to discuss the game in full from 6.30pm. #nffc #nottinghamforest
Alexis Mac Allister's dramatic 97th minute winner gave the Reds an undeserved but hilarious win at the City Ground as Arne Slot recorded his first win against Forest. The first half performance was dreadful but things did improve after the break and the three points are most welcome. Chris Smith is joined by TLW Editor Dave Usher to discuss this one and to look ahead to West Ham at Anfield next week.
Pien Meulensteen is joined by Jamie Redknapp and Bobby Zamora as West Ham missed the chance to significantly close the gap to safety after being held to a 0-0 draw at home by Bournemouth.Listen to every episode of the Sky Sports Premier League Podcast here: skysports.com/sky-sports-premier-league-podcastYou can listen to the Sky Sports Premier League Podcast on your smart speaker by asking it to play "Sky Sports Premier League Podcast".For all the latest football news, head to skysports.com/premier-leagueFor advertising opportunities email: skysportspodcasts@sky.uk

#978 | Ed and Adam suffer through the long wait for United men to play again. In the meantime they enjoy United Women's 5–0 aggregate win over Atlético Madrid to reach the Women's Champions League quarterfinals. It's been a strong performance from the team so far this season despite the often critical reception to manager Marc Skinner. There's a deep-dive on United's strategy behind revamping midfield in the summer - Anderson, Wharton, Baleba, Tonali … somebody else? That group will include Kobbie Mainoo, with reports this week that negotiations over a new contract are underway now that he is back in the first team under Michael Carrick. The under-18s beat Oxford in the Youth Cup and there's even more hype around 15-year-old JJ Gabriel. Finally a preview of Everton away at the new Hill Dickinson Stadium.

West Ham are under pressure… so can Bournemouth capitalise? With questions surrounding form, confidence, and performances at the London Stadium, this could be a huge opportunity for the Cherries. But are West Ham really there for the taking given their form has recently shown an upturn?

On this week's episode, Mike, Craig and Dan reflect on the 1-0 win at Macclesfield which secured our passage into the fifth round of the FA Cup, and look ahead to a return to Premier League action against Brighton on Saturday. Brentford required a second half own goal from Sam Heathcote in order to get past their non-league opposition, and that slice of luck sets up an all-Premier League clash against West Ham in the next round - we chat about how seriously we should take this opportunity. We also chat about Brighton's recent slump under Fabian Hurzeler, and the kind of game we can expect from Brentford at the weekend.

James welcomes Aston Villa fan Lee Jackson and Leeds United fan Ed Salinger on to Clash of the Correspondents ahead of the meeting between the two clubs at Villa Park on Saturday. The title may look beyond Villa, but there's still plenty to play for as they try and hold on to a Champions League qualification spot and they will fancy their chances of going deep in the Europa League too. While for Leeds, despite sitting 15th and only 6 points above West Ham, the general consensus seems to be that they'll be fine after sustained period of positive results and performances. All the key FPL assets covered including defensive assets from both, Morgan Rogers, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin. And there's plenty of reason to be interested in their assets, Villa have Wolves after Leeds and Leeds themselves have a great run beginning from GW29. Infact, from now until the end of the season, Villa and Leeds sit as the top two on James' fuxture difficulty ticker!

In this episode of Scouser Tommies on Anfield Index, Jim Boardman and Jay Reid reflect on a steadier spell for Liverpool after a poor run of results. A heavy loss to Manchester City was followed by a dogged 1-0 win at Sunderland and a much more fluent 3-0 victory over Brighton in the FA Cup. The upcoming fixtures look winnable, though that expectation carries less weight given how unpredictable the Reds have been this season. Recent performances offer cautious optimism. Jim notes that while Liverpool haven't quite “turned the corner,” they're at least “peeping around” it, which feels like progress for fans weathering a difficult campaign. Jay compares the situation to Takeshi's Castle, where Slot's side keep choosing doors—some leading forward, others into “the drink” or the arms of a waiting “monster.” The pair credit improved tactical balance and key individuals for this small upturn. Shifting Dominik Szoboszlai back into midfield has restored rhythm, making the team more balanced and dangerous. Cody Gakpo also draws praise for his link-up play and unselfishness, particularly in Szoboszlai's goal against Brighton. Yet concerns remain about the manager's decisions, including perceived favouritism and slow substitutions when defending a lead. With results improving, focus turns to the club's wider structure and contract issues. Jim and Jay call for renewed deals for players like Szoboszlai and Ibrahima Konaté, suggesting this would lift supporters far more than another hollow PR exercise after a quiet transfer window. Looking ahead to matches against Nottingham Forest, West Ham, and Wolves, they hope Liverpool can build momentum. The FA Cup, a top-four finish, and a strong Champions League push still feel within reach. As always, there's time to shake heads at the neighbours, and this week concludes with a plea for what the Reds should give up for Lent. Learn more about your ad choices.

#977 | Michael Carrick's audition continues. With four wins from five, including victories over Arsenal and City, Ed, Dharnish and Daniel break down what we've actually learned about Carrick's “game model” so far. Is this a sustainable tactical evolution or a short-term bounce? And how should United approach the next run of fixtures, starting with Everton? The discussion covers why West Ham's low block caused problems; the emergence of a clear tactical identity under Carrick; increased player proximity, rotations and front-foot football; the midfield rebuild that's clearly coming in the summer; and whether Carrick should already be the frontrunner for the permanent job There's optimism. There are caveats. And there's still the small matter of breaking down stubborn, compact sides. Momentum matters, but so does long-term planning. 00:00 Introduction and weekend football 02:00 West Ham analysis 08:45 What is Carrick's “game model”? 16:10 Defensive evolution 19:00 Everton preview 22:00 Momentum or reality check? 25:00 Long-term future 29:30 Momentum, expectations & what comes next 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.

Here James is joined by fellow Tottenham fan Ricky Saunders for a discussion on the managerial change, why blame should also be aimed at those running the football club and concerns around a chronic injury list. Plus, what we can expect from Tudor tactically and stylistically and if the job is just waiting for Mauricio Pochettino's return... but would he even take it if the club went down?
