Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE. In this episode, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Jill Scott, Roy Keane and Ian Wright are joined by Jordi Cruyff for an honest and insightful look at his life in football and beyond. We begin with Jordi’s early playing career, how he first fell in love with the game and the influence of his father, Johan. He talks us through his journey in the Barcelona academy and his move to Manchester United, where he struck up a close friendship with Eric Cantona during a memorable spell at Old Trafford. The team then reflect on Johan Cruyff’s remarkable legacy. As one of the most influential figures the sport has ever seen, what was he like away from the pitch, and what shaped his genius both as a player and as a manager? The conversation moves to Jordi’s role as Sporting Director at Barcelona during the post-Messi era. With financial restrictions and huge expectations on the club, he opens up on the challenges he faced and what he learned during one of the most difficult periods in Barça’s recent history. To finish, Jordi shares the powerful story of his daughter Danae’s battle with cancer. Danae joins us on the show to talk about her diagnosis and recovery, and we are all incredibly proud to see her doing so well and speaking so openly about her journey.

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE. This week, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Wayne Rooney, Roy Keane and Ian Wright are joined by one of the Premier League’s greatest ever full backs, Ashley Cole, for a brilliant episode full of big reveals and funny moments. We start by looking back at Ashley’s early days at Arsenal and how he went from a young prospect at Highbury to one of the best full backs we have ever seen. He talks about the ups and downs, the moments that shaped him and how a loan spell at Crystal Palace changed everything. The conversation then turns to coaching. Ashley talks about the work he has already done alongside Wayne and with England, and why he sees himself stepping into management sooner rather than later. We also revisit his incredible playing career, from the Invincibles and working under Arsene Wenger to joining Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea team. Ash speaks openly about leaving Arsenal for Chelsea, one of the most talked about moves English football has ever seen, and the reaction that followed in the media and beyond. To finish, the table look back at England’s golden generation. Why didn’t that group achieve what many expected and was that England’s best chance of winning something major?

Attention then turns to England after an impressive international break.

With so many defensive options, the panel debate England’s strongest back four heading into the World Cup. We also discuss Jude Bellingham and the media scrutiny he faces.

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by Arne. Paul Scholes joins us as a surprise guest for our 100th episode, and it turned into one of the most open and genuine conversations we’ve ever had. He talks about stepping away from punditry, how his life revolves around caring for his son Aiden, and what family life looks like alongside his role at Salford City. Of course, we also talk football. From being mentored by Nobby Stiles and having a pint the night before youth games, to starting up front before moving into midfield, and what it was really like playing alongside Roy Keane. Scholes gives brilliant insight into his current work at Salford, helping young midfielders with timing, finishing, and learning how to slow the game down in the box. He also reflects on retiring from England at 29, the challenge of playing out wide, and what was really going through his head during that final tournament under Sven.

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE. In this episode, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane and Ian Wright are still soaking up the sun in Rome, delivering one of the funniest episodes yet. The team start by looking back at life after football, with Wrighty heading into showbiz while Roy, Carra and Gary stayed in the game through management and punditry. How did each of them find their path, and what challenges did they face along the way? The conversation then turns to Manchester United, revisiting the moment Sir Alex Ferguson announced his departure from the club. Could United have done more to stay on track, and was David Moyes really given enough time to succeed one of football’s greatest managers? Attention then shifts to the modern game as the panel reveal one thing they would remove from football, from long throw-ins to offsides, everyone has their say. Golf then takes centre stage, with Wrighty and Roy going head-to-head over the Ryder Cup. While Wrighty loved every minute of it, Roy was far from impressed. To finish, the team answer a few lighter questions, from music and food to films, including one big debate: which movie does everyone love that you just don’t get?

On this week’s Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE, Gary Neville, Roy Keane, Ian Wright, Jamie Carragher and Jill Scott are joined by legendary defender Des Walker. We take it right back to the start of his career, breaking through at Nottingham Forest under the great Brian Clough, becoming a fan favourite with his speed and fearless defending. Des opens up about life in that dressing room, his rise to England stardom, and shares stories from unforgettable nights out with teammates including one with Roy Keane that you won’t want to miss. We also revisit his time on the biggest stage, pulling on the Three Lions shirt at Italia ’90, where England went all the way to the semi finals in one of the most iconic tournaments of all time. Des recalls what it was like to face some of the best players to ever play the game, from Diego Maradona to Marco van Basten, and reflects on the highs and challenges of representing his country. Alongside his England career, we look back at his club journey, from Forest to his spell in Italy, to becoming a rock at the heart of the defence for Sheffield Wednesday, where he built a lasting connection with the fans. From Forest to Wednesday, from international glory to the moments that shaped his career on and off the pitch, this is a must watch conversation with one of England’s finest defenders.

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE. In this episode, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright are joined by former Leeds and Chelsea striker Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink to look back on a career packed with goals, big moments and unforgettable stories, as well as his time as a national team coach and manager in the EFL. We start with Jimmy’s early career, from growing up playing football to his big break in Portugal. How did he make his way to England and what challenges did he overcome along the journey? The conversation then turns to his time at Leeds United, how he adapted to Premier League life, the teammates who pushed him to become one of the club’s top scorers, and the controversy around his exit from Elland Road which saw him move to Atlético Madrid. Jimmy recalls his return to England, leading the line for Chelsea and later Middlesbrough, where he worked with Gareth Southgate. That connection eventually led to him joining Southgate’s coaching staff for Euro 2024. We dive into the tournament itself. Where did England go wrong, and was playing Trent Alexander-Arnold in midfield too big a gamble? Looking ahead, we also discuss Thomas Tuchel's appointment as England prepare for the future.

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE. In this episode, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright return after another dramatic week of Premier League action. We revisit Newcastle v Liverpool on Monday night, were Liverpool lucky to come away with three points, and did Newcastle go too far with their aggression after the Alexander Isak incident? Arsenal’s strong start continues, and with new signing Eberechi Eze coming in, can they find another level? And how good is youngster Max Dowman? At Manchester City, the goalkeeper debate rolls on. Has Pep asked too much of young James Trafford, and could Gianluigi Donnarumma be the solution? Over at Manchester United, a slow start and Bruno Fernandes’ penalty antics pile the pressure once again onto manager Rúben Amorim. What needs fixing before the transfer window closes? Super 6 returns with predictions, including the big clash between Liverpool and Arsenal, and we round things off by answering your community questions on which sides need to strengthen before deadline day, and who’s already in trouble after just two games.

Your support has been incredible, and we couldn’t have done it without you! Jamie shares what he’s been up to, including a trip to Malta to watch his son represent the national team. The team then turn their attention to one of the biggest potential transfer deals of the coming months: Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid.
