It’s been a busy week at Old Trafford. Erik Ten Hag has finally gone, and Sporting’s Ruben Amorim looks set to replace him as Manchester United manager.

In this episode, we find out why the 39-year-old might just be the person to get things right at Old Trafford after a number of false dawns. But how exactly will he get things moving at a club that has stalled for so long?

Troy returns alongside Henry Winter to discuss these key issues and more, including why new owners INEOS cut ties with their manager just 115 days after awarding him a new contract. Of course, they delve deep into the other key factors behind Ten Hag’s downfall, including the failure to instil a clear playing style, his terrible and expensive recruitment, and even his weak media persona. Henry argues that while Ten Hag undoubtedly had his weaknesses, he was also let down by the Glazers.

And with Amorim’s arrival imminent, we explore what he’ll bring to United and what it will take for him to deliver consistent success, from changing infrastructure to developing an identity. So, is Amorim the right man to lead United forward? Does his experience in Portugal set him up for success in the Premier League? Find out here, in the latest episode of Three Up Front.

Football writer Henry Winter joins Simon Jordan and Graeme Souness to discuss Liverpool, Arsenal, Newcastle and the media’s reaction to Thomas’s Tuchel’s appointment as England head coach.

They debate whether Liverpool are the real deal this season: Henry reveals what the players are saying about Arne Slot but Graeme has reservations about their title credentials. They also discuss the upcoming game against Arsenal and why it could be a defining fixture for Mikel Arteta’s side this season and whether their indiscipline is going to ruin their own Premier League bid.

Following Thomas Tuchel’s appointment, they discuss the press reaction to his arrival, what success will look like for him and whether we will now learn if the players are good enough to win the World Cup.

There’s also a chat on Newcastle’s recent form and whether they’re heading for a tough season. Henry says why he thinks there have been some difficulties behind the scenes, Graeme explains what makes the club such a challenge to manage and Simon wonders whether the honeymoon following Mike Ashley’s departure is over.

Should Manchester United copy Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City to get back to the top? Why are Tottenham so flimsy? Would you take Paul Pogba at your club now and was Arsene Wenger a lucky manager?

Those are the topics on this week’s Three Up Front with Simon Jordan, Graeme Souness and Troy Deeney.

With Man Utd’s executives meeting this week and possibly deciding on Erik Ten Hag’s future, Simon gives his insight on what might be going through their minds while Graeme wonders if there’s enough football knowledge at the club.

Tottenham’s latest capitulation leads them to ask why that has been the case for so long and Troy reveals whether players think they are a soft touch. Also, would James Maddison get into any of the top three and does Ange Postecoglu need to liven up a bit in his post match interviews?

Graeme gets an opportunity to discuss one of his favourite subjects - Paul Pogba - as they debate whether they would sign him after his doping ban was reduced. Also in Graeme’s line of fire is, of all people, Arsene Wenger: was he a great manager or just very lucky?

And with top players complaining about the increasing number of matches they’re being asked to play, Troy explains why he would vote not to strike.

It's only two up front on the show this week as Simon Jordan and Graeme Souness tackle some of the big questions around the Premier League:

Did Arsenal show an inferiority complex against Manchester City? Was Erik Ten Hag wrong to bring up Marcus Rashford's lifestyle and is Julen Lopetegui's position under threat at West Ham?

Graeme and Simon debate Arsenal's approach after they went down to 10 men at Manchester City. Did Arteta's approach show their fear of City or was it the best way to go? Graeme argues they were too negative and explains why he thinks City won't care that they haven't beaten Arsenal in their last 3 league meetings. They also discuss Trossard's red card and whether players should take some of the blame for bending the rules.

Please note that his episode was recorded before the news about Rodri's injury became public.

With just one win in his first 5 games, how much pressure is on West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui? Simon gives his verdict on how long he might have  and explains the thought process of a chairman when the team is getting bad results.

Finally, Simon and Graeme look ahead to Manchester United v Tottenham this weekend and discuss whether managers should bring up a player's lifestyle in the press after Erik Ten Hag's recent comments about Marcus Rashford. This leads to a debate over whether Ten Hag can handle big stars, but is it also maybe the last chance saloon for Rashford at United?

In this episode, we are joined by two-weight world champion David Haye. He’s one of only three men - with Evander Holyfield and Oleksandr Usyk - to have won world titles at both cruiserweight and heavyweight.

After becoming the first Brit to reach a world amateur final, David turned pro and quickly became known for punching power, as illustrated when he stopped both Jean-Marc Mormeck and Enzo Maccarinelli to become the unified cruiserweight world champion. He then moved up to heavyweight where, despite conceding 7 stone in weight, he beat the giant 7ft-plus Russian Nikolay Valuev to become the WBA champion.  Eventually, he faced Wladimir Klitschko in a unification bout but he was soundly beaten and his post-fight excuse of a broken little toe severely damaged his standing among fight fans. Thereafter, came controversy and frustration: a much-publicised brawl with Derek Chisora in Germany led to a contest between the pair where David was victorious. But, a highly anticipated fight with Tyson Fury fell through as David suffered injuries that would keep him out of the ring for a long time. He eventually returned and fought Tony Bellew twice before retiring following his defeat in their rematch.

Despite his success, David has been a sometimes divisive figure with the boxing public. Here, he tackles everything: becoming a two-weight world champion, his defeats to Klitschko and Bellew, why he made some of his controversial statements, and he gives his thoughts on Anthony Joshua, Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk. He also explains why Saudi Arabia’s takeover is good for boxing and tantalisingly, he reveals whether his career may not yet be over.

The Champions League is back and looking very different this season. But will it be more entertaining?

Simon, Graeme and Troy discuss the new format and question whether English teams have been really punching their weight until now.

Graeme explains why Arsenal must win the North London derby. Simon asks whether fans are too loyal to homegrown talent that simply isn't good enough for the first team and Troy suggests that Arsenal's left wing slot is up for grabs, and that Raheem Sterling is the man to take it.

On today’s episode we are joined by one of the most dominant defenders in Premier League history.

Jaap Stam spent three seasons at Manchester United, lifting the Premier League title every year. In 1999 he would add the FA Cup and the Champions League to his trophy cabinet as he helped United to historic treble.

His infamous autobiography led to an explosive Ferguson fall out, which saw Jaap leave for Italy. First at Lazio and then onto AC Milan where he would be involved in another iconic Champions League moment, the miracle in Istanbul.

Now a manager with experience in England, the Netherlands and the USA, Jaap joins the show to give us the inside scoop on his rocky relationship with Sir Alex Ferguson, the controversy around his failed drugs test as well as his thoughts on the Dutchmen currently plying their trade in the Premier League.
