Expected narrative

We’re two days away from the return of the Premier League and, as always, there are many unanswered questions. Who will make a big push for the title? Who can make an unexpected run for Europe? Which team will be dragged into a relegation scrap? Are the rule changes going to actually do anything?

Arsenal are the Champions of the Community, and they gave their title rivals a slap across the chops along the way. Should Man City fans be concerned? Marcus, Luke and Jim are here to debate that and discuss whether Enzo Maresca needs an Argentinian s**t stain to replace the Rodri-shaped hole in the midfield. Plus, Cristiano Ronaldo could be retiring soon… maybe. Join the Football Ramble FPL HERE [https://fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/auto-join/50ewth]. Or use the code: 50ewth.

My Biddy Aunt: Football media men (Feat. James Allcott)

We need to have a serious discussion. Adam Clery came on and won in Jack's Encyclopaedia, and then Jamie Carragher beat Luke at My Biddy Aunt. We literally invented these games, and we’re losing to people who have never played them before. Frankly, it’s disgusting. We need to turn things around. Enter, James Allcott - or Allcôte d'Ivoire - who will square off against Jimbabwe in another pre-season fixture of the Ramble Summer Series. Let the games commence! (Please win, Jim.)

Francesco Potti

Domestic football is back! As is tradition, we kick things off this weekend with the somewhat mildly aggressively contested Community Shield between Arsenal and Man City. Today, Marcus, Jim and Vish are here to look ahead to that. Elsewhere, we explain why Marcus Rashford could still have a future at Manchester United. Plus, there has been another football-adjacent narcotics scandal in South America. Happy Friday! Get your Football Ramble x Admiral kit here [https://footballramblestore.com/].
