  • Arsenal meet Villa again, Cherki's on fire + the Cherries are in crisis
    Dec 29 2025

    Jimbo presents the last Totally Football Show of 2025 in the company of Daniel Storey, Tom Williams and Seb Stafford-Bloor.


    It will be 1st v 3rd on Tuesday as Arsenal host an Aston Villa side buzzing after an 11th win in a row against Chelsea at the weekend. Unai Emery’s side go level on points with the Gunners with a victory.


    Man City have notched together 8 wins in a row themselves, the latest secured by Rayan Cherki at Forest. What impact is the Frenchman having on Pep’s approach?


    Another week, another Dominic Calvert-Lewin goal. And another defeat for Bournemouth. With Semenyo on his way out the door, how bad could things get for Andoni Iraola?


    Jay Harris joins us from Morocco where Nigeria show why they should and shouldn’t be considered strong favourites at AFCON.


    Plus there’s Ruben Amorim’s back four, Rudi Voller’s dancing and the annual West Ham striker search.

  • Can Chelsea topple red-hot Villa? Can Man Utd function without Bruno?
    Dec 24 2025

    Jimbo, Duncan Alexander, Art De Roché and more bring you the final Totally Football Show before Christmas.


    Man United and Newcastle contest the only Boxing Day fixture with the Red Devils having to do without the injured Bruno Fernandes.


    The headline fixture of the weekend sees Aston Villa aiming for an 11th win in a row as they travel to Chelsea. Jacob Tanswell tells us about a seven day spell that could really cement Villa’s status as title-challengers.


    Arsenal will look to take more points against Brighton than they did last season while Man City travel to the City Ground, where it all began for the Haalands in English football.


    Elsewhere, there are fixtures between Sunderland & Leeds and Burnley & Everton with greater historical significance than you might realise.


    Plus Maher Mezahi joins us from Morocco to recap the first two days of AFCON, filled with sensational overhead kicks and catastrophic back flips.

  • Barca, Bayern and Inter top the tree + Fiorentina finally win!
    Dec 23 2025

    Jimbo’s got helpers James Horncastle, Seb Stafford-Bloor & Pol Ballús alongside him for some pre-Christmas cheer of a European variety.


    We begin in La Liga, where it’s as you were at the top of the table with Barca navigating the tricky trip to Villarreal to come away with all three points to keep their advantage at the top of the table. Real’s win over Sevilla helps ease the pressure on Xabi Alonso - but is Vini Jr’s future in more serious doubt?


    The shock scoreline across the continent was perhaps recorded in Florence, where having gone 210 days without a Serie A win - Fiorentina only went and put five past Udinese! Plus, Lois Openda ended his Juve goalscoring drought in their win over Roma to make things even tighter at the top.


    We touch base with events in France, Portugal, Turkey and the Netherlands - including the mounting troubles for Robin van Persie, Coupe de France storylines and lone Portuguese superfans!


    And in Germany - Bayern Munich continued their remarkable form with a 4-0 thrashing of Heidenheim - featuring Harry Kane’s 100th goal involvement in record quick time. Is the sky the limit for Vincent Kompany’s side this season?


    Produced by Lucy Oliva.


    RUNNING ORDER:

    • PART 1: Moments of the weekend (00.45)

    • PART 2: La Liga review - Mbappe equals CR7 as Barca pass Villarreal test (07.15)

    • PART 3: Serie A review - Fiorentina win a game… no, seriously! (18.40)

    • PART 4: Elsewhere in Europe - Coupe de France storylines & RvP under pressure (36.03)

    • PART 5: Bundesliga review - the Bayern machine rolls on (40.55)

  • Rogers runs riot for record-breaking Villa as Liverpool’s revival continues
    Dec 21 2025

    Jimbo, Daniel Storey, Adrian Clarke and Mark Carey chew through the last Premier League weekend before Christmas.


    Morgan Rogers produces two moments of magic as Aston Villa beat Man United 2-1. Unai Emery's side have won 10 in a row and 7 in a row in the Premier League for the first time ever.


    There are victories for Man City and leaders Arsenal, who put a stop to their away slump with a 1-0 win at Everton.


    The match of the weekend sees Chelsea fight back from 2-0 down at St James's Park to rescue a point. And it's two red cards for Tottenham as Liverpool's revival continues in North London.


    Plus yet more misery for Wolves and yet more joy for Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Leeds.

  • Totally Extra: Fernando Torres - the story of El Niño
    Dec 20 2025

    Jimbo is joined by Duncan Alexander, Sasha Goryunov and special guest filmmaker and Liverpool fanatic Asif Kapadia, as they open up the Totally Extra almanac on Fernando Torres.


    A boyhood Atletico Madrid fan turned hometown hero at his local club, Torres' lightning pace and prolific goalscoring earned him a move to Anfield where he quickly won the hearts of the Liverpool faithful and forged a special bond with Steven Gerrard.


    A World Cup and Euros winner with Spain in arguably their greatest ever era, but injuries held him back as he he made the controversial move to Chelsea, before finishing his career back at Atletico and finally in Japan.


    The panel ponder why despite not winning anything at Anfield and moving to a rival, El Niño is so loved on Merseyside.


    Plus, Jimbo flicks through the Totally Almanac on this week and there's a Torres themed quiz question.


    Produced by Charlie Jones, Lucy OIiva and Jesse Howard.

  • Will Villa end their Man United hoodoo? Will Arsenal’s away day blues continue?
    Dec 18 2025

    Jimbo assembles Benji Lanyado, Jay Harris and Duncan Alexander for a feast of footballing chatter ahead of an enticing MD17 in the Premier League.


    We begin with events in the three midweek League Cup quarter-final ties - which saw Chelsea, Manchester City and Newcastle progress to the semi's, soon to be joined by either Arsenal or Crystal Palace. There was Cherki's outrageous strike, Garnacho showing his class - and more injury woes for Eddie Howe to navigate.


    Then it's full steam ahead with the weekend's PL action. How will Manchester United fare at form side Aston Villa after their bonkers 4-4 draw with Bournemouth on Monday night? Can the Gunners arrest their poor away form when they make the trip to take on Everton on Saturday evening? And will Tottenham v Liverpool live up to its chaotic and free-scoring reputation?!


    We get ourselves tied in xG knots, discover shocking connections to supermodels - and rank elite bazaars.

  • Advantage Inter, Bayern’s late show - and a reprieve for Alonso at Real?
    Dec 16 2025

    Jimbo’s got the Euro crew alongside him for a dive into the wild and wonderful world of football from across the continent…


    We start in Italy, where the title race took yet more twists and turns as Milan and Napoli both dropped points to allow Inter to take top spot. Plus - Fiorentina’s plight deepens after their latest defeat leaves them eight points from safety in Serie A.


    Over in Germany, Bayern had a scare as they were staring down the barrel of defeat to bottom of the table Mainz, before - of course - Harry Kane stepped up to convert a penalty and take a point back to Munich… and somehow still manage to extend their lead at the top of the Bundesliga table!


    And in La Liga - Real Madrid picked up a precious three points at Alaves with Xabi Alonso’s job reportedly on the line. But Barcelona stay four points clear after Raphinha’s double made it seven wins in a row for the league leaders.


    All that plus ground-hopping recommendations, favourite insults, private emails - and emotional goodbyes.
