This week, JJ and Pennant discuss Forest sacking Ange Postecoglou, Salah’s slump, Liverpool’s internal chaos, and the Premier League’s obsession with stats and set pieces.  Plus - what’s really going wrong with Spurs? Is Sean Dyche the answer for Forest? Has football lost its bite?  All that, plus JJ’s theory on the modern game’s decline, Pennant’s Messi “memory-gate,” and a massive shoutout to this week’s Wildcards League winner. Inside the Spurs meltdown and what their next move says about modern football. Salah’s form, Trent’s impact, and whether Liverpool can still challenge for the title.
