S2E17: Boomer Is Rattled - a podcast by Did It Cross The Line

It's been a busy week-and-a-half of football and Rebecca&Alex are back to try and delve into as much of it as they can.

The apprentice beat the master as Frank Lampard bested Jose Mourinho in Tottenham vs Chelsea. We look at how Lampard got his tactics spot on, why he should stick with the back three, how Willian haunted Spurs yet again, and we have to ask ourselves; is Son Heung-min actually"that type of player"after all?

Sadly, we also have to address yet more disgusting racism in Premier League grounds and discuss what the authorities and the supporters themselves can do to stamp it out, as well as Gary Neville's, Ashley Cole's and Graeme Souness' eloquent thoughts on the topic.Liverpool are officially the best team in the world after winning the Club World Cup. Naturally, there's a lot of love for Firmino, Keita, Gomez, Trent, Robertson and, of course, Jordan Brian Henderson, but very little admiration for referee Abdulrahman Al-Jassim's woeful performance in the final. We also look at the nonsense surrounding the Carabao Cup - the kids turned in an admirable display, but why did it ever come to this?After big wins over Tottenham and Man City, Manchester United inevitably reverted to type and lost to bottom of the table Watford. We chat about why Solskjaer continues to fail tactically against teams below them in the league, as well as how Nigel Pearson has already improved Watford. Could he actually save them from relegation?

Rebecca's hangover was less painful than the experience of watching Everton vs Arsenal but there's a lot of hope for the future among fans at both clubs as Carlo Ancelotti and Mikel Arteta take charge. We take a closer look at how we think both managers will get on, how Ancelotti's appointment could benefit Moise Kean, what Arteta's managerial style could be, as well as despair at how Mesut Ozil has been thrown under the bus by his club yet again.Plus, Paulo Gazzaniga's moment of madness, Zidane style performances from Kevin de Bruyne, why you don't lose to Tottenham, Star Wars and the flu, erections at The Ev, 'Willyson The Winner', believing in Bobby, and who is like Ron without Hermione?
