Are Julen Lopetegui’s days at West Ham numbered? The club denied reports on Monday he had already been sacked and replaced by Graham Potter, we discuss their struggles after their latest heavy defeat, at the hands of Manchester City.

West Ham fan and podcaster Sean Whetstone joins Mark Chapman, Chris Sutton, Rory Smith and Leon Osman to talk about the rift between Lopetegui and the club’s technical director Tim Steidten, and the candidates to replace him at the London Stadium.

Everton have failed to score in eight of their last eleven matches, we chat about the pressure that’s putting on Sean Dyche.

We hear Ange Postecoglou’s extraordinary post-match interview after they were beaten 2-1 by Newcastle despite the ball hitting Joelinton’s arm in the build-up to their first goal.

And after a poor performance against Manchester United at Anfield, we assess Trent Alexander-Arnold’s contract situation at Liverpool.
