After a wild slate of midweek action, the boys convene to share their thoughts on Martinelli's shove, Amorim's ousting, and Romero's rant.

We'll also reflect on Brenden Aaronson's big day (except for that handball) in a wild one vs Newcastle and we'll discuss Erling Haaland doing a lot but also, not quite enough.

And finally, we've got some Igor Thiago trivia and we wonder why Boomers have such a problem with people wearing winter hats indoors.

NOTE: Near the end of the pod, we discuss Wilfried Nancy. This was prior to the announcement that he had been fired. But as you'll hear from our comments, we are certainly not surprised by this outcome.

Ruben Amorim is OUT as head coach of Manchester United... WOW. We share our thoughts on why United came to this decision, how much Amorim was to blame for his own downfall and where United may turn for their next head coach.

Then, we discuss another managerial move as Chelsea part ways with Enzo Maresca... again, WOW. We'll break down the club's unconventional approach to the position and ask the question if we need to recalibrate our mindset when it comes to Chelsea appointments.

We'll also weigh in on some of the marquee matches from over the weekend, Riqui Puig's devastating injury setback, Wilfried Nancy's status at Celtic and much much more!

XG and halftime deficits be damned! Aston Villa's unbeaten run continues, this time over Chelsea. The boys do their best to try and explain how Villa have managed to ascend so close to the top of the Premier League.

Then, we'll analyze Pep Guardiola's quote regarding Rayan Cherki and we'll look back on when Man City's morale began to change. We'll also discuss United eeking one out over Newcastle and Tottenham doing the same at Selhurst Park.

Plus: Is Kevin Schade the next big thing at Brentford? Has Florian Wirtz found his groove at Liverpool? And how difficult has it become to decipher true information from misinformation?

The boys break down a weird edition of the Caught Offside Cup which featured an Isak goal, a Wirtz assist, some Richarlison chaos, a frantic finish and 2 Tottenham red cards - but it was a player who didn't see red that bothered JJ the most.

Plus, we'll share our thoughts on Newcastle throwing away a 2 goal lead thanks to a couple brilliant goals from Reece James and Joao Pedro. We'll also analyze Morgan Rogers' ascension and weigh in on the pressure that Arsenal are starting to feel.

And finally, we'll discuss Christian Pulisic's name being left off the Guardian's list of the top 100 male footballers of 2025. We'll tell you where he officially ranked and what we think of it.
