Surviving the Sahara: Behind the scenes of the Marathon des Sables

Chris McHardy is joined by Chris Brown for a look back at the weekend's football. 

There's a heated debate among the co-hosts about who should be the PFA Player of the Year. It's a race to the bottom for Arne Slot and Igor Tudor in the popularity stakes as Liverpool is held by Spurs. And Max Dowman looks to put the cherry on a successful Arsenal season just by being bloody brilliant.

All this and much more on The Score.

Monday Night Football: Player of the Season? 

Chris McHardy is joined by Eddie Taylor for a sideways glance at the world of sport.

The duo head down memory lane as they rattle off the sporting YouTube clips they simply can’t get enough. They look forward to the night’s EPL fixtures as Manchester United travel to Newcastle United. And we then hear from Lord Seb Coe who tells about the state of athletics right now and why he’s helping to transform Manchester with the Wembley of the North.

The Back Page

Chris McHardy is joined by Robbie Greenfield for a look at a number of football-related matters.
There’s Arsenal maintaining their lead at the top of the Premier League in unconvincing fashion as Man City crank through the gears. Newcastle United appear to be in trouble and there’s just 100 days to go until the 2026 World Cup, and all is not well.
