About this episode

It turns out we've got our very own Marcus Speller to thank for Manchester City's revival. After a summer spent taping up Phil Foden's bins, the Citizens can finally re-focus their attention on the Premier League. But can they keep it up?


Elsewhere, Marcus, Pete & Vish debate the minimum number of men that can legally constitute a wall, and we suffer a cyber attack from a pack of p***ing Gumbies.
