Jimbo has Daniel Storey, Adrian Clarke and Tim Spiers for company in a big week across multiple competitions.

The Club World Cup reaches the semi-final stage with Chelsea taking on Fluminense and PSG up against Mbappe’s Real Madrid. Has Enzo Maresca stumbled upon a more counterattacking style at Stamford Bridge? And can Guler and Garcia continue their superb form for Los Blancos?

Speaking of superb, Spain are through to the quarter-finals of the Women’s Euros in some style. But England’s status hangs in the balance after their defeat to France. Are the players fit enough? And are some there on reputation?

Mexico are Gold Cup winners again, overcoming the USA. Felipe Cardenas joins us to discuss the state of the World Cup co-hosts and 16-year-old prodigy Gilberto Mora.

It's Inter Totally Cup quarter-final time as Duncan Alexander takes on Producer Charlie.

And we react to the news that former Arsenal player Thomas Partey has been charged with five counts of rape and one count of sexual assault.

Back in the summer of 2020, Jimbo and co passed the time reviewing classic Premier League campaigns.

Here from the vault, we bring you the thoughts of Michael Cox, Daniel Storey and Matt Davies-Adams on that time where Arsenal went the whole season unbeaten. You may have heard of it.

It was the arrival of Roman Abramovich at Chelsea that shook English football to its core with unprecedented levels of spending in the summer of 2003. But Arsene Wenger’s Gunners were the team that made history and lifted the title. And all on ITV.

The unbeaten record could have gone early in the campaign as Ruud van Nistelrooy lined up to take a penalty at Old Trafford…

Elsewhere, it’s a season that will be remembered for Leeds’ relegation, Ronaldo's debut and the most Spursy game ever.

Back in the summer of 2020, Jimbo and co passed the time reviewing classic Premier League campaigns.

Here from the vault, we bring you the thoughts of Michael Cox, Daniel Storey and Matt Davies-Adams on the 1998/99 season, when there were many twists and turns but one team won it all.

It was the best season ever to be a Man United fan with Sir Alex Ferguson's side taken right down to the wire but winning the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League. But what else about 98/99 have you forgotten?

Di Canio shoving a referee? Liverpool having joint managers? West Ham finishing 5th?

Lee Carsley takes England Under 21s to a second successive Euros final as Harvey Elliott shows his worth to potential suitors. They face favourites Germany on Saturday.

PSG set up a reunion with Lionel Messi and Inter Miami in the last 16 of the Club World Cup. And Botafogo knock out Atletico Madrid to tee up an all-Brazilian clash with Palmeiras. Jack Lang in LA tells us why Brazilian sides are doing so well at this tournament.

Man City face Juventus on Thursday with both sides already through. Are both free-scoring sides back to their best or are they just playing bad teams? And we need to talk about the weather.

There are goals galore and family trees rocking in both the Under 19 and Under 21s Euros, where holders England are one game away from the final.

Back in the summer of 2020, Jimbo and co passed the time reviewing classic Premier League campaigns.

Here from the vault, we bring you the thoughts of Michael Cox, James Horncastle and Tom Williams on the 2013/14 season, when there were 4 teams in the title race!

It was Manuel Pellegrini's Man City that won it but this will always be remembered as the championship Liverpool lost, after Gerrard's slip and Crystanbul. Imagine if Luis Suarez had gone to Arsenal.

The Gunners led for most of the season while Mourinho was back at Chelsea and threatening to lead them to glory once again.

Plus we had Di Canio at Sunderland, Pardew head-butting a player, and Anelka sacked for a goal celebration.
