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.

The Premier League is back after three weeks, and so are the bad predictions. Ryan and Wozza clear up Wednesday’s mistakes in Corrections & Callbacks, ask whether Brighton, Brentford and Leeds can stay in the top five, and preview the big three: Villa v Brentford, a must-win United v Spurs for Carrick, and Liverpool v City at Anfield in City’s first game since the verdict. Every pick goes on the tracker, and we’ll find out Monday who got it right. Plus, Wozza’s countdown to his tenth Chicago Marathon.

The international break is over and FPL is back. Ryan and Wozza run Monday through Corrections & Callbacks, then take on listener B Stark’s plan to send Man City to League Two. They debate Harry Kane’s “country before club” comments, wrap up England’s 3-0 win over Czechia and the USMNT’s 1-0 win over Canada, and say gracias to Leo Messi on his international retirement. Then it’s FPL: Fix My Team, Buy/Hold/Sell, captaincy picks, and two differentials under 10% ownership.

New theme song, same questionable opinions.

They also preview the Premier League's return, including Villa v Brentford, United v Spurs, and Liverpool v City in City's first game since the verdict.

Wozza's back in Nashville, a week away from his tenth Chicago Marathon, and the guys launch a new segment, Corrections & Callbacks, to put last episode's mistakes on VAR. Then: which club is better placed for the next five years, Manchester United or Aston Villa? Plus predictions for England v Croatia and USA v Mexico, whether Carrick's job is safe, and Manchester City's appeal against their guilty verdict on 114 of 115 charges, including what happens next and what their punishment should be.

Wozza calls in from the road home from the Gulf Coast as the guys take on Superfan Doug's question: why can't England produce top managers? Then it's England's 2-0 win in Czechia, the USMNT's youth movement in a 4-2 win over Chile, and the biggest story in football: Manchester City found guilty on all charges, what the punishment should be, and whether anything can stop it happening again. Plus, 10 episodes in and somehow still going.

Then it's the talk of football: reports that Manchester City were found guilty on 114 of the 115 charges, what sanctions could look like, and what it means for the fans and the game.
