Eddie Taylor joins Chris McHardy for a look at the biggest stories from the world of sport... and some of the small ones too. 

Newly crowned Premier League Manager of the Season Mikel Arteta won the league, but is he really the best this term? There's a look at the viral trend of naming supermarket items that sound like they've played in the EPL and the longest winning streaks in sport.

We also look ahead to Crystal Palace and Rayo Vallecano in the Conference League Final as Oliver Glasner bids farewell to the club. Then we're heading stateside to see how the Western Conference NBA Finals are shaping up, before Eddie delivers another sporting quiz.

All this and much more on The Score.

Robbie Greenfield joins Chris McHardy for a look at the big talking points from the world of sport.

Why is there such a flat feeling around the 2026 World Cup? Is it because it's so bloated with teams or something else? We also look at the new rules designed to change the competition's pace, which should cause a stir.

We're off to Roland Garros to see which players are taking the baton for the Big Three in the men's game, and we have a little look at the new Rafa Nadal documentary.
