MNC: Overreaction Monday, cursed grounds & in Nuno Spurs trust? - a podcast by BBC Radio 5 live

The Monday Night Club gang are reunited for the first time this season, to reflect on the opening weekend of the Premier League.

Mark Chapman gets Chris Sutton, Micah Richards and Rory Smith to give their thoughts on who shouldn't be overreacting and who definitely must not be discouraged after the first lot of fixtures.

Up for discussion in this episode is the new belief at Tottenham and whether Nuno Espírito Santo has connected with the side in a way Jose Mourinho was unable to.

What role will Jack Grealish play at Manchester City - is he there to be shaped into a 'Pep Guardiola player' or will they let his natural talent take the lead?

Could Manchester United challenge for the title? Rory isn't sure they have enough strength in all areas of the pitch.

And after a dream start for Brentford, could they prove to be a bogie side for most in the league this campaign?

Plus - we have a dog doorbell, cursed grounds and celebrity criticism all featuring. Confused? Have a listen.
