About this episode

Kate, Luke and Vish discuss last night’s action after Chelsea swatted aside what Joe Cole called “a top Championship side” (brave) as well as any common sense around VAR.


The heartwarming football news doesn’t stop there: Kinglsey Koman’s been fined for using the wrong supercar, while Lionel Messi has been turned into an AI message bot. Plus, Dinamo Zagreb Zoran Mamić nobly falls on his sword after being sentenced to five years in prison and Arsène Wenger has some dastardly plans straight out of Area 51.
