About this episode
The episode discusses Pep Guardiola's achievements at Manchester City and West Ham's struggles in the Premier League.
Manchester City beat Chelsea at Wembley to complete the domestic double, with Pep Guardiola claiming his 20th trophy at the club in just 10 years. Has Pep cemented himself as the greatest manager in Premier League history? And with fresh speculation surrounding his future, will he still be at the Etihad next season? At the other end of the table, West Ham’s problems continue after a heavy defeat to Newcastle. With defensive issues mounting and confidence draining, are the Hammers heading for relegation — or is there still hope of a dramatic escape?
