THE TIMES
About this episode

It's 8 in 8 for Jamie Vardy as Brendan Rodgers' rampant Leicester City refuse to lie down in their pursuit of the most unlikely of titles. Heard this one before?


Natalie and Gregor are joined by The Times' Molly Hudson for more on Vardy, why Man City need an overhaul in defence, and Gregor's warning to Liverpool ahead of the hottest prospect in Europe being unleashed on them this week in The Champions League.


All that plus The Times' man on Merseyside Paul Joyce reveals why Duncan Ferguson's inspired win for Everton over Chelsea was all thanks to a sweatband and a broken watch.
