In this episode of It’s Called Soccer, Rebecca Lowe, Gary Neville, and Jamie Carragher break down the biggest stories in soccer this week, with special guest Mike Tirico joining the show!
The episode kicks off with a deep dive into Arsenal’s dominant win over Manchester City, as the Gunners send a huge statement in the title race. Jamie and Gary debate whether this is finally Arsenal’s year and if Liverpool should be worried about their lead at the top.
The conversation shifts to Marcus Rashford’s loan move to Aston Villa. What’s next for Rashford, and is he still the player United knew?
Next up, Tottenham’s trophy hunt—could this be the year Spurs finally end their silverware drought? The team reacts to Gary tipping them to win the Carabao Cup and how Postecoglou has transformed the squad.
Then, Mike Tirico joins the show for an exclusive chat about Super Bowl LVIII, the evolution of sports broadcasting, and why the 2010 World Cup changed everything. Plus, Rebecca and Mike reflect on their journeys in sports media and what the future holds for soccer in the U.S.
And finally, FanDuel Picks of the Week, including Liverpool vs. Spurs, Madrid Derby predictions, and the FA Cup battle featuring another Carragher!
