Armchair Gaffers

Welcome all to our Continental Corner. Our weekly budget flight around Europe. This is the part of the show where we fill you Armchair Gaffers in with all that's going on in and Around the continent. This week's show is virtual because... well just because. We talk about the scenes as OGC Nice "fans" clashed with just about everybody as their team took on Marseille. Scorcher has no interest in PSG...

Welcome to yet another instalment of Armchair Gaffers. This week we are joined by none other the infamous The Chicken Connoisseur. It was another cracking weekend of #PremierLeague Football. Unfortunately we've now had our first 0-0 of the season thanks to Crystal Palace and Brentford but aside from that, the rest of the weekend's games were excellent. First and foremost, #Arteta must go and NOW!...

#WeKnowItAll We are back with out first Continental Corner of the 2021/22 season. This week's instalment is short and sweet as we're still waiting Serie A and of course the Champions League to get going. This week we cover the main talking points from La Liga, Ligue 1 and the German Bundesliga. The main thing we realised after the first proper week of European football is that Barcelona do not nee...

The #PremierLeague is back so now our lives finally have meaning again. What an opening weekend it was. 10 games, 34 goals and 0 draws. Brentford got things going with their unexpected 2 - 0 win over Arsenal on the opening day and the fireworks did not stop there. Next up, Manchester United thrashed Leeds 5 - 1 thanks to masterclasses from Bruno and Pogba. On Sunday, Manchester City took on Spurs...

We've done our best to keep you loyal subscribers entertained during the preseason and now the football season is just around the corner. With just one more week to go, we thought it only right to give you guys our predictions for the 2021/22 season. But with all things ACG, it's never straight forward. Before we could start, we first had to do a whip around and discuss some of the recent events i...

In lieu of Jack Grealish's impending departure from The Villans to The Citizens, this week we look the 10 (or 11) most expensive transfers in the history of the beautiful game and judge weather they were a resounding success of miserable failure.

First of all, sorry for the delayed episode. Secondly, thank you for your continued support especially during this extremely dry preseason period. In this week's show we look at (amongst other things) the Jadon Sancho to Manchester United transfer. One of the most drawn out transfers of recent memory. We also discuss Ole's new contract. We the cast our eyes over these proposed new FIFA rule and su...

We're back with another one of our sporadic uploads. Sorry guys but you just have to put up with this for another four weeks until the football season starts again. This week was a bit of a ramble. Believe it or not but we actually did have an agenda this week but it's hard to stay on track without our Laptop Dan. We look at the mess unfolding at Barcelona. It really is bad over there guys. And th...

#Euro2020 There is only one thing on everyone's lips right now - Is it coming home or not? And if you ask most people, the answer is a resounding "YES"! In this week's episode we look at just how well the three lions have done and finally give Gareth Southgate his flowers. We also look at which players have let us down this summer and which players have surprised us. Tune in - Like - Share - Subsc...

#Euro2020 #WeKnowItAll After a short summer vacay, we're back with your weekly dose of Armchair Gaffering! WE BACK BABY!!! The only thing on the agenda is Euro 2020. We want to talk about other things but there's literally nothing else worth talking about. The Euro's were hyped up a lot and with most things that are hyped up, they fail to live up to the billing... that hasn't been the case this ti...

IT'S COMING HOME, IT'S COMING! Subscribe to Armchair Gaffers here: https://bit.ly/3fhsHoE This is our first episode since the #Euro2020 kicked off and the main talking point is #England 1-0 win over #Croatia thanks to a trademark Raheem Sterling goal.

In this week's instalment of Armchair Gaffers we look at the recently announced #PremierLeague Team of the Season and ask if there are any players who should've made the cut. We also ask why the YoungPlayer of the Season - Phil Foden wasn't included. We also look ahead to the Euros. We discuss England's squad, a few dark horses and big teams who we think have no chance and much much more! Tune in,...

Episode 37 of Armchair Gaffers. First and foremost, we address the events of the #ChampionsLeagueFinal between Manchester City and Chelsea. Chelsea were victorious thanks to a solitary Kai #Haverts goal. Was is a Tuchel Masterclass or was it another case of Pep overthinking things? Secondly, we address the managerial chaos unfolding across Europe. All top five clubs in Germany have new or no manag...

A review of the final standings across Europe's top league. It's been a very entertaining season across the continent. Several leagues concluded just as we expected. But, a few surprises were thrown up - especially in Italy and France. The Final "Final 3rd" of the season. We thought we'd use this opportunity to award some of this season's overlooked players. We hand out awards for: The Player of t...

The final day of the #PremierLeague is always a day to look forward to no matter who you support or what's up for grabs. And the 2020/21 season is no different. The relegation places were pretty much spoken for months ago. The Champions were already champions, just waiting for their crown. There were just a few European places up for grabs. We ran the rule over all the teams in division and gave o...

In part 1 we take another flight around the Continent to fill you guys in on everything that's happening in the great yonder. Both La Liga in Spain and Ligue 1 in France are going to be decided on the last day of the season with Atletico and Lille in pole positions in either league. Juventus have a mountain to climb if they are to qualify for next seasons #ChampionsLeague. And Rangers ended the SP...

We are back for our penultimate #PremierLeague matchweek review of the season. The Champions have been crowned and all the relegation places are spoken for, so, most teams have nothing to lay for and that probably explains why this weekend's fixtures were so entertaining. We had a 7 goal thriller at St. Jame's Park where newly crowned champions #ManCity ran out 4-3 winners, Leeds put 4 beautiful g...

It's Tuesday morning and that means only one thing at Armchair Gaffers - Our weekly low budget flight across Europe to round up all the goings on in the continent.

Joe Willock bags again as the Magpies thwart the Foxes hopes of #ChampionsLeague football. If the Champions league final is as entertaining as the dress rehearsal was, then we are in for a treat. City could have w...

Another week, another #ContinentalCorner. A few league races have been run and champions now crowned. Ajax are champions of Holland and Inter Milan are champions of Italy for the first time in 10 years. Still all to play for in Spain where only 6 points separate the top four. It's a similar story in France's Ligue 1 where PSG and Lille are matching each other stride for stride where only 1 point s...

We're back with another #PremierLeague weekend review. More and more in recent months, non-footballing events seem to dominate the headlines and this week was no different. The big talking point was the match that didn't go ahead between #ManchesterUnited and #Liverpool after fans somehow managed to get in to the stadium and on to the pitch prior to kick off. The match was postponed and Sky were l...

Our weekly budget flight around Europe takes off once again and the first top is the new #ChampionsLeague format. We didn't ask for this! We weren't consulted on this! We then look at the up coming Champions league semi finals. Real Madrid vs Chelsea and Man City vs PSG. Lastly we see how the title races are going in Europe's top leagues. In this week's short and snappy Final 3rd segment we do our...

It's a new week and we can finally put all that European Super League talk behind us and get bak to real football talk - but first, let's talk about the European Super League. Once we got all of that out of the way we spoke about Manchester City finally doing the quadruple... kinda. They won their fourth League Cup in a row. Elsewhere in the #PremierLeague #Arsenal keep doing Arsenal things. Chris...

This is our weekly #PremierLeague Weekend Review where we round up all of the goings on in the latest round of Premier League fixtures. There were only five games in this round of Premier League so we didn't have much to get our teeth into. Luckily though, it was also #FACup #SemiFinal weekend. So in this week's show we go over:...
