Wonder who will win this

A 30-year-old Tomas Soucek doesn't seem the best candidate for a one-man midfield

Think Peter Drury might be a golf fan

Just another 2-3 transfer windows until Man Utd get it right

Hadn't seen Ao Tanaka play much before tonight. Very impressed!

Jumped on Route One (which is a fine addition to the football podcast line-up) to talk about Crystal Palace's chances in the Conference League podfollow.com/route-one/ep...

The new ROUTE ONE is here:

Could Palace's demotion be a blessing in disguise? We ask @gregleafootball.bsky.social.

What went wrong for Liverpool? I have an idea...

And Bournemouth just spent BIG on a defender. How are they looking this season? Commentator Paul Scott speaks.

Club World Cup averaging five goals per game so far, Infantino vindicated

Please 🙏🦅

Even by their standards, this has been a dismal performance from Tottenham. Every Palace player seems to have five yards of space

How much longer until my brain realises Savinho isn't Riyad Mahrez?

Leicester have been utterly miserable under Van Nistelrooy. Surely goes down as one of the worst managerial performances in PL history
April 20, 2025 at 5:23 PM
Not a good first 45 from Chelsea. Haven't beaten a top-half team since December 1 - and you can see why
April 20, 2025 at 1:53 PM
Ismaila Sarr's movement is exceptional. Picks up so many dangerous positions
April 12, 2025 at 12:00 PM
Guess who watched both Brentford vs Chelsea and the Manchester derby

Bournemouth so sharp without the ball. Tottenham struggling to deal with their press already
March 9, 2025 at 2:06 PM
If Southampton hold on (which they surely won't), would that be the biggest shock in Premier League history?
March 8, 2025 at 3:49 PM
Omar Marmoush obviously the star of the show in that first half, but Nico Gonzalez has brought Man City some much-needed authority at the base of midfield
February 15, 2025 at 3:53 PM
Are N̶e̶w̶c̶a̶s̶t̶l̶e̶ Bournemouth in the title race?
January 18, 2025 at 2:35 PM
Same vibe
January 17, 2025 at 9:29 AM
Vintage Cole Palmer. Running the show at Selhurst. Scored Chelsea's goal and created four chances. Palace can't get near him
January 4, 2025 at 3:50 PM
Southampton just can't handle Jean-Philippe Mateta's physicality at the moment. Palace well on top since going behind
December 29, 2024 at 3:45 PM
Another disappointing performance from Ebere Eze, this. Overcomplicates things & takes too many touches far too often. Just three direct goal involvements this season
December 26, 2024 at 4:33 PM
Bottom of the Premier League table since the start of November
