Episode 2711: Transfer Window Jumps The Shark, Harry Not On The Plane, Synth Lord Reigns Supreme
The Premier League kicks off this evening, but some extraordinary transfer loose ends are still up in the air – will we get closure on the Moises Caicedo deal before Chelsea face Liverpool on Sunday?
US Murph joins us to talk about his all-conquering little league team, how he plans to keep his boys fresh for an assault on national titles next year… and why the failure of the US women’s national team was always going to expose the same fault-lines in American society that have so depressed him for the last 8 years.
And it’s the culmination of an extraordinary week of Synth, but fault-lines have developed between the generations. Age-old power structures have been challenged in recent days – stay tuned for the inevitable backlash.
