Man Utd’s Worst Team? Haaland’s Contract...

The Overlap
About this episode

In this episode of It’s Called Soccer, Rebecca Lowe and Gary Neville tackle the week’s hottest soccer stories with special guest Brendan Hunt from Ted Lasso!

The show kicks off with a Premier League roundup, including Tottenham’s struggles under Ange Postecoglou following their defeat to Everton. Gary shares his thoughts on the sad passing of Manchester United legend Denis Law before diving into United’s latest setback against Brighton.

The discussion heats up as Arsenal’s title hopes take a hit after a disappointing draw with Aston Villa. Rebecca and Gary dissect Arteta’s comments about squad depth and the Gunners’ injury crisis. On the other hand, Liverpool strengthens their position at the top, with Darwin Nunez regaining form in a crucial win over Brentford.

The spotlight then turns to Erling Haaland, who celebrated his record-breaking 9½-year contract with Manchester City in style. Gary and Rebecca debate whether Haaland could surpass Alan Shearer’s Premier League goal record and what his extended stay means for City’s dominance.

Finally, Brendan Hunt joins the show for an exclusive interview, sharing his love for Arsenal, stories from Ted Lasso, and why Sol Campbell taught him to hate Spurs!
