  • Is Real Madrid Right for Trent & What’s Up with Foden? | Stick to Football EP 76
    Mar 27 2025

    Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by Sky Bet


    This week, Jamie Carragher returns to join Gary Neville, Roy Keane, Jill Scott, and Ian Wright - as we celebrate winning Best YouTube Channel at the Sports Journalism Awards. Your support has been incredible, and we couldn’t have done it without you!

    Jamie shares what he’s been up to, including a trip to Malta to watch his son represent the national team. The team then turn their attention to one of the biggest potential transfer deals of the coming months: Trent Alexander-Arnold to Real Madrid. Jamie shares his thoughts on what it would mean for Trent’s legacy at Anfield, while Gary questions whether a switch to La Liga would suit TAA's style of play.

    The team discuss the start of Thomas Tuchel’s tenure as England manager. Who has impressed and who has struggled in his first two games in charge? One of the biggest concerns remains Phil Foden, with so much talent, what does it take to unlock his full potential in an England shirt?

    We also welcome Roy’s daughter, Caragh, who's made a new cereal brand - designed to support an anti-inflammatory lifestyle. Check out SUPERKEEN here - https://superkeenfoods.com/
