Max Rushden is joined by Barry Glendenning, Barney Ronay, Jonathan Wilson and Jacob Steinberg to discuss the final day of the Premier League season.
Tottenham survive, West Ham relegated
Tottenham Hotspur narrowly secured their Premier League status with a victory over Everton, while West Ham United's win against Leeds United proved meaningless as they were relegated after 14 years in the top flight. Jacob Steinberg joined the panel to analyse the failures behind West Ham's decline, the future of the London Stadium, and what lies ahead in the Championship.
Other key talking points
The panel also discussed Roberto De Zerbi’s impact at Spurs, Sunderland’s remarkable qualification for the Europa League, Bournemouth and Brighton securing European spots, and Aston Villa finishing fourth after spoiling Pep Guardiola’s farewell at Manchester City. A heated debate ensued about the rise of in-game guards of honour following emotional send-offs for Guardiola, Bernardo Silva and John Stones.
Liverpool, Chelsea, and England news
Liverpool bid farewell to Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson, Chelsea prepare for life under Xabi Alonso, Thomas Tuchel named his England squad, and Harry Maguire’s family reacted furiously to his omission. Finally, one listener feared he may have accidentally eaten Jonathan Wilson’s mother.
