About this episode

It was GOALS GALORE in the Premier League this weekend!! On the Football Fill-In today we have Ben Foster, Darren Bent, Dave Watson and Tom Ochoa as we talk about this weekend of fixtures!


Our first game starts off with the Super Sunday match, which was Liverpool vs Manchester City. What is going on at City and is Pep losing the plot? We discuss all on this game and how it’s now Liverpools title to lose… Moving on, Chelsea beat Villa 3-0 in a convincing win, we had a look at their upcoming fixtures and it looks good for them, could they push for a title charge?! West Ham vs Arsenal saw seven goals in the first half which could lead to worrying times for West Ham and Julen Lopetegui. Manchester United are off the mark with their first win in the PL under Ruben Amorim with a 4-0 victory over Everton, with one manager coming in, will one manager be coming out in the name of Sean Dyche? We also discuss Marcus Rashford going to the USA and how good Amad Diallo was!


Looking at the game in the midlands, we head to Wolves in a thrilling 4-2 defeat to Bournemouth. Wolves gave away three penalties which could all have been avoided, but in doing so, Bournemouth broke two Premier League records with Evanilson being the first to win a hat-tick of penalties and Justin Kluivert the first to score a hat-trick of penalties! Brentford’s AMAZING home record continues with a 4-1 win over Leicester as Ruud van Nistelrooy watches in the stands with the owners. Kevin Schade scores a hat-tick and he is the 2nd Brentford player to score a PL hat-tick with the first being Ivan Toney!


Staying in London, Spurs hosted Fulham as they drew 1-1, which leads to Spurs fans being frustrated with the lack of consistency with results. Crystal Palace host Newcastle, and Palace were dominant and deserved a point going right to the final whistle. A potential worrying time for Newcastle as they only managed 1 shot the whole game with 0 being on target. Isak also comes off injured too which doesn’t look good for the Magpies.


Moving to the final two games, Brighton hosted Southampton on Friday night, which caused a divide in opinion in the studio today with that Adam Armstrong offside. Do you think the goal should have counted? Finally, Forest beat Ipswich 1-0 with a Chris Wood penalty taking them to 6th in the table!
