West Ham go down and the great guard of honour debate: Football Weekly  podcast
Tottenham survive a narrow win over Everton, while West Ham’s victory over Leeds proves irrelevant because relegation ends their 14-year stay in the Premier League. The panel examines the causes behind West Ham’s decline, the future of the London Stadium, and the club’s next steps in the Championship. Other topics include Roberto De Zerbi’s impact at Spurs, Sunderland’s qualification for the Europa League, and both Bournemouth and Brighton securing European places. Aston Villa finish fourth while spoiling Pep Guardiola’s farewell at Manchester City. The show also covers debates about in-game guards of honour, Liverpool’s farewell to Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson, Chelsea preparing for life under Xabi Alonso, and Thomas Tuchel naming his England squad. Harry Maguire’s omission draws furious family reaction, and a listener reports an awkward fear about eating Jonathan Wilson’s mother.

Plus: Liverpool says goodbye to Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson, Chelsea prepare for life under Xabi Alonso, Thomas Tuchel names his England squad, and Harry Maguire's family reacts furiously to his omission."
