Ruben Amorim Sacked — Who Should Really Be in Control...

On the Spot ·

2026/01/05

The sacking of Ruben Amorim raises a bigger question than just one decision.How much control should a football manager actually have?In this episode, I talk about why managers need real influence — especially over recruitment and squad direction — but also why that control has to be earned through trust, alignment, and results.It’s a conversation about modern football, accountability, and why so many managers are set up to fail before they’re ever truly backed.This isn’t about outrage.It’s about

Why the Narrative Feels Different for Arsenal & Man City

2025/12/29

What's good team. Hope everyone had a great Christmas and Boxing Day. I still have no idea what day it is.I had a really interesting way of viewing the footy over the last couple days that I haven't had in years.Working in the pub on the 27th, Hibs v Hearts, Livi v Celtic and Chelsea v Aston Villa were all on but I didn't get to properly sit down and watch them. Which left me going old school and only really seeing the scores at full time.After checking out social media yesterday and

When Pressure Builds and Belief Shifts in Football

2025/12/18

This episode isn’t about a standard match preview.It’s about pressure, belief, and the moments that reveal where teams — and managers — really are.I reflect on Celtic after their defeat to Dundee United, the body language and authority required at a club like Celtic, and why Hearts vs Rangers feels like a moment charged with belief.

The Night the Old Firm Mentality Cracked

2025/12/15

St Mirren beating Celtic in the League Cup Final wasn’t just a shock result — it was a psychological moment in Scottish football.For decades, teams outside the Old Firm have carried an invisible barrier into these games. On this night, that barrier didn’t just wobble — it broke. This episode isn’t about tactics or stats. It’s about belief, mentality, and what changes when fear disappears.This is football as thinking, culture, and emotion — not noise.

How Quickly Football Changes — Liverpool Are the Proof

2025/12/10

Football swings fast — sometimes faster than we ever expect.Last year Liverpool looked unstoppable: momentum, identity, belief, a title, and a manager people were calling the next great thing. Fast-forward and the picture feels completely different. Pressure, uncertainty, injuries, tactical shifts, and the Salah situation have turned the mood inside out.In this episode, I’m looking at Liverpool not just as a club, but as the perfect example of how quickly football evolves.

2025/12/04

This Midweek Drop looks across both leagues — and there’s a lot to unpack.Liverpool have spent over £400M on attackers, yet still lack pace, 1v1 quality and unpredictability. The attack feels flat and easy to read, and while there’s been small progress, it’s nowhere near enough to challenge consistently.Manchester City continue to embrace chaos under Pep — brilliant at times, mad at others. Arsenal on the other hand look controlled and comfortable, a rotated 2–0 win that keeps them five points clear
