From subscriber queries about the best managers in the game, the (very realistic) prospect of winning without Mo Salah and Jan’s preferred line-up were he to take Jürgen’s ball-cap for a night, to an Eddie Gibbs-inspired retrospective on the massive upheaval and cultural shift at the club during the 90s, this is a typically packed show.

With a record profit about to be announced, yet another points record attained, a goalscorer who has surpassed even Fernando Torres in terms of strikes per minute and a warm weather training camp to enjoy from a position of four points clear at the top of the Premier League, it’s fair to say there are plenty of reasons to be cheerful. As ever, there are anecdotes aplenty and many other topics covered, from the formal departure of Željko Buvac to the probability of a quiet transfer window. Another belter with Jan.
