Speed of Soccer

It’s been a historic week for the Premier League. Arsenal capped a remarkable season by winning the title, ending years of near-misses under Arteta. Aston Villa lifted the Europa League in Istanbul — their first trophy in 30 years — completing one of the most stunning club transformations in modern football. And the celebrations barely have time to settle before we preview the Champions League final on May 30th: holders PSG face Arsenal at the Puskás Aréna in Budapest , with the Gunners chasing an unprecedented domestic and European double. It’s the greatest week English football has had in years — and we break it all down.

Episode 2 is all about Pep Guardiola’s era at Manchester City — 18 trophies, a historic 4-in-a-row, and numbers that dwarf every manager before him. We stack his record against Ferguson, Mourinho, Klopp and Wenger, debate his all-time ranking, and count down the Top 5 players who defined the dynasty.

The Ballon race is heating up, the biggest Champions League Final in years is right around the corner, and Manchester United might have finally found their man. In this episode, we break down the three-way Ballon d’Or battle between Harry Kane, Ousmane Dembele, and Declan Rice, preview the Arsenal vs PSG Champions League Final in Budapest and make our pick, and discuss why Michael Carrick deserves the Manchester United job full-time. The beautiful game has never been more exciting — let’s get into it.
