Enjoy a retrospective from Super Bowl Sunday as Geoff and Andrew recap results from the New Year onward. Manchester United are sat in second behind town rivals City, who were continuing an unbeaten streak toward the top of the table. United showed a pattern of snatching victory from the jaws of defeat, especially away from home grounds. A segment on what is needed from the best players in order to win matches, along with a recap of an historic 9-0 win for Man U. The Premier League is the best in the world, so elite defending is more and more necessary with each year of changing attacking talents. The then-current state of Tottenham’s play raised questions of focus and health. Harry Kane continuously showing his importance to Spurs, and other talismanic league talents are discussed. Andrew delves into the purity test of commentators’ views on toughness. The debut of the Hover-Højbjerg Half-Hour, as well as Andrew’s foolish optimism about Spurs’ then-recent run of results. Out-of-favor talents and the inconvenient truth of their imperfect humanity, with the balance of a redemption arc. Recorded on 2/7.
