Rogers SINKS Man United, The Most Skilful Premier League Player & CONTROVERSIAL Christmas Dinners!

It’s another packed episode of The Good, The Bad & The Football as Paddy, Nicky and Scholesy react to Morgan Rogers’ match-winning display against Manchester United. That sparks a wider chat on the battle for the No.10 role with England, how competition can drive standards, and why some England starters can sometimes risk becoming complacent. There’s a look at Jack Fletcher and Shea Lacey making their senior debuts, plus a reminder of how injuries can create opportunity, with Scholesy and Nicky recalling how luck helped Marcus Rashford get his big break at the expense of James Wilson. Following Jack Grealish’s recent comments, the lads debate who really is the most skilful player in the Premier League - Doku, Grealish or Semenyo? - and what actually counts as “skill”. The GBF 2025 Football Awards are handed out, including Player of the Year, Best Signing and the player they’d most like Manchester United to sign. There’s debate over Semenyo’s future at Bournemouth withs doubts expressed over whether Manchester City would be the right move, while Nicky and Scholesy explain why they want Manchester United to start buying from their rivals again. The boys also reveal which current player they’d most like to have on the pod, the former teammate they’d love to join them, and why Paddy’s dream guest would be Fabian Barthez. And there's a festive feel to the show as the lads compare Christmas Day traditions: does Nicky really have a goose instead of turkey? Who goes to bed in their PJs by 5pm? Have you ever had a fry up with your Christmas leftovers? And who claims to enjoy a glass of sprout juice on the big day? 🤢 Nicky recalls how his dream Christmas present didn’t last the day, before the lads swap gifts themselves. 🚨 Look out for the Stick to Football v The Good, The Bad & The Football Christmas Quiz, hosted by Iain Stirling, this Boxing Day from 8am.
