Gary Neville, Paul Scholes, Jill Scott, Roy Keane and Ian Wright are joined by former Spurs, Real Madrid and Wales star Gareth Bale for a fascinating look back at his incredible career.

We dive into the reality of playing for Real Madrid, the pressure that comes with the badge and what it was really like sharing a dressing room with Cristiano Ronaldo & Co. under Zinedine Zidane. And yes, the golf debate makes an appearance too.

Bale also reflects on his rise to superstardom at Tottenham, revealing that a move to Manchester United was on the table not once, but twice.

From Champions League glory to leading Wales on the international stage, he opens up on the highs, the scrutiny and life after football, including his spell in MLS and what keeps him busy now.

This week, Gary Neville, Paul Scholes, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright dive into a title race that’s getting tighter by the week. With Arsenal and Manchester City going head to head at the top, how is Wrighty feeling heading into the run-in, and who does the team back to lift the league in May?

We look back at a huge North London Derby, as Arsenal got the better of Spurs, while Viktor Gyökeres continues his strong form. Benjamin Šeško was at it again too, coming off the bench for Manchester United as the super sub. The team break down both strikers’ impact and how crucial they could be in the final stretch of the season.

Super 6 returns ahead of another busy week of fixtures, and Gary tests the panel on the top five Premier League goalscorers from different nations with the Premier League Companion powered by Microsoft Copilot.

We’re also joined by Portugal head coach Roberto Martínez, who reflects on his squad ahead of the World Cup and discusses Cristiano Ronaldo’s role as the tournament approaches.

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE.

After last week’s blockbuster episode, Ange Postecoglou returns to join Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright for a deeper look at his life in and out of football.

Ange reflects on his upbringing in Australia after his family moved from Greece, how that shaped him, and where his love for the game truly began.

The conversation then turns to his coaching journey, from developing his bold tactical identity at Tottenham to his short spell at Nottingham Forest. Does he regret taking the job at the City Ground, and would he make the same decision again?

We also revisit his time at Spurs, including winning the Europa League against Manchester United, managing top players like Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero, and how he views both the highs and the setbacks.

Celtic, VAR and what comes next in his career are all up for discussion, as well as his view that the Manchester United job is “the hardest in football”.

It’s a huge episode packed with a surprise appearance and breaking news.

We kick off with Tuesday night’s Premier League action as Manchester United and Chelsea both drop points against West Ham and Leeds. Then it’s on to Spurs, where the pressure had already been mounting.

Super 6 returns, and the panel revisit last summer’s biggest signings. Who did they back? Who did they doubt? And were they proved right? Roy, of course, has plenty to say.

We start with Paul’s time on Soccer Saturday, looking at what he loves most about the role and whether there are moments of analysis he wishes he could take back.

The conversation then turns to club loyalties, with Paul opening up about being a Chelsea fan despite his strong ties to Arsenal, and who he would want to win if the two sides ever met.

Paul also reflects on his playing career, sharing stories from his time at Arsenal, the top players he played alongside, and giving his thoughts on the current Arsenal side and whether they can go all the way this season.

We then move away from the pitch as Paul speaks honestly about life after football and some of the challenges he has faced along the way.

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE.

In this episode, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright react to a turbulent period at Manchester United. Following the departure of Ruben Amorim, the team look back on his time at the club and discuss what ultimately led to his exit.

Attention then turns to Michael Carrick, who has stepped in on an interim basis. Is this the right appointment for United, and could Carrick earn the role permanently if results go his way, or do the club need to look elsewhere in a chaotic manager market?

There’s also movement elsewhere, with Chelsea making a change as Enzo Maresca departs and Liam Rosenior comes in. Is this a gamble for the club, and how risky is handing out long term contracts in the modern game?

Super 6 returns as the team make their predictions, before we finish with one of the stories of the season. Macclesfield pull off a stunning FA Cup upset against Crystal Palace, and manager John Rooney joins us to reflect on a famous night and one of the biggest shocks in the competition’s history.
