Get ready, the Premier League is back! Andrew and Harry are buzzing and this week’s topic is Formations 101.

Formations might look like random numbers, 4-4-2, 4-3-3, 4-2-3-1 but we promise they're more than your bank account PINs. In this episode, Andrew and Harry break down what formations really mean, why they don’t always tell the whole story, and how managers use them to set traps, unlock attacks, and change the flow of a game.

From defensive walls to all-out attacking setups, you’ll learn how to read the numbers, why they’re both the truth and a lie, and even how to spot a formation shift while watching live.

Plus, a new segment: Ballers on the Rise, where we highlight three young stars already making waves. Desiree Dua, Ethan Nwaneri, and Giovanni Quina.

By the end, you’ll never hear 4-3-3 the same way again!

We are at the Season 2 opener and it's a look back at some of the most ICONIC footballing moments ever, the kind of stuff that lives rent-free in every fan’s head.

We'll talk about the biggest moments in football history, from Maradona’s “Hand of God” and Brazil’s 7-1 heartbreak, to Zidane’s infamous headbutt and Messi’s record-shattering 91-goal year. We’ll also cover Manchester United’s last-minute comeback in the 1999 Champions League Final and Suárez going full bite mode at the 2014 World Cup.

We also go on tangents about players learning languages just to trash talk, our current favorite non-alcoholic drinks, and why we’re never taking a long break again (seriously this time).
