About this episode

The episode discusses the opening weekend of the Premier League, featuring surprise results and player performances.

The opening weekend of the Premier League had a bit of everything - surprise results, late goals, Newcastle/Liverpool and big-spending Spurs. We chat to Richard Jolly, who was in St James Park to witness the Keegan tribute, and Lars Sivertsen about United getting mauled by Hull, Spurs' damaging defeat, Villa getting hammered by Brighton and Arsenal in cruise control. Plus there's the Irish men of Brentford, Duff gets glazed, Kenny's glasses and Haaland's haircut. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
