Hearts, Celtic & Rangers: The Title Race Scotland Needed

For years, Scottish football has followed the same script: Celtic or Rangers, Rangers or Celtic. But this season has been different. Hearts’ rise turned the Premiership into a genuine three-horse title race and even as it narrows to two, the old predictability has been challenged. Former Rangers, Liverpool, Stoke & Dundee midfielder Charlie Adam joins Sam Ellard to ask why Scottish football is competitive again, how Hearts became serious contenders, whether the Premiership split is working as intended and what a stronger domestic league could mean for the Scotland national team.

Fiery Fridays: Phil Foden might as well RETIRE

Fiery Fridays are BACK and in today’s episode, Adrian Durham gets straight into it and congratulates Phil Foden on his retirement! Despite being just 25-years-old, Adrian can't fathom why the Man City midfielder has signed a new four-year contract at the club when he can't get a run in the team, and thinks he should join a newly promoted side instead. Interestingly, there wasn't too much push back from Alex Crook and Angelina Kelly - which might highlight Foden's struggles right now. Speaking of Crooky, and he's parked his tanks on the lawn of Anthony Gordon - who he believes Newcastle should cash in on right now. Meanwhile, Angelina has focused on Myles Lewis-Skelly's move into midfield and believes he should partner Declan Rice in midfield - not for Arsenal, but for England!   As you know by now, every Friday is all about bold opinions, strong feelings, and arguments just waiting to happen. As the week winds down, we’re turning the heat all the way up… that's another three HUGE opinions… no sitting on the fence… and absolutely no fear of things getting a little heated.   It's another episode you do not want to miss!   YouTube: talkSPORT - YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@talkSPORT] X: talkSPORT (@talkSPORT) / X [https://x.com/talkSPORT] Instagram: talkSPORT (@talksport) • Instagram photos and videos [https://www.instagram.com/talksport/?hl=en] Website: Live Radio, Breaking Sports News, Opinion - talkSPORT [https://talksport.com/]   Produced by: Ollie Stevenson ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
