Two Footed Takes is the Premier League show for two best mates on opposite sides of the game — Ryan, a born-and-raised American backing Manchester United, and Wayne, a Brit through and through following Aston Villa. Three times a week, they break down every gameweek, cover their clubs' Champions League runs, and argue over bold predictions — no neutral analysis, just two invested fans

  • Ep 17 – Villa Hit Six, Can City Go Unbeaten? & Sack Watch at Elland Road – 10/16/26
    Oct 16 2026

    Villa thrash Fenerbahçe 6-0 and Wozza is officially unbearable. Ryan and Wozza cash Wednesday’s tickets, react to City losing 4-2 at home to PSG (and Wozza’s bold call that they’ll go unbeaten in the league anyway), and check whether Brighton are pulling away. Then they preview the weekend: Newcastle v Villa, a must-win Leeds v United at Elland Road, and the latest on United’s reported managerial shortlist. Plus a big debate on how much patience a manager really deserves.

  • Ep 16 – The Glazers, Atlético Pain & Who Replaces Carrick? – 10/14/26
    Oct 14 2026

    Superfan Doug turns the spotlight on United’s owners: should debt-loaded takeovers like the Glazers’ face the same scrutiny as City? Ryan delivers a surprise defence. Then it’s a grim night in Madrid as Atlético beat United 2-0, Lisandro Martínez tells the club to “look upstairs,” and the sack watch heats up. Wozza runs a game of Touchline Takeover to find Carrick’s replacement. Plus the Champions League round-up, Villa v Fenerbahçe predictions, and an FPL listener league update, where Wozza is somehow in first.

  • Ep 15 – Marathon #10, Receipts Cashed & City Run Riot at Anfield – 10/12/26
    Oct 12 2026

    Wozza’s back from Chicago with marathon medal number ten, and the Premier League’s return didn’t disappoint. United throw away a lead against ten-man Spurs as the Carrick sack watch heats up, Villa let Brentford back in late, and City win 3-0 at Anfield to make it six from six. Ryan and Wozza debate whether the title race is now a farce, launch a new segment to settle Friday’s predictions (Ryan finally gets some right), and preview United’s Champions League trip to Atlético Madrid.
