What has happened to Arsenal recently?

Paddy McGuinness 0:22
I can't believe there were nine.
Paul Scholes 0:25
Nine, right. Oh, top of the league, aren't they? Yeah. Don't say it. Don't say it. I'm going to test them. Because I was thinking about this, and honestly, I think I got four. I've got Bolton, Newcastle, West Ham, Sunderland. And then I'm thinking... Blackburn. Yeah. Blackburn. Yeah. West Brom. Crystal Palace Everton Sunderland West Ham I've got the full list here Let's go down them here Leeds Leeds West Brom
Unknown 1:01
What was Leeds? Leeds was only three months. Leeds was four games. Four games, was it? Yeah.

What memorable stories does Sam Allardyce share about his time at Bolton?

Unknown 1:05
With Carl? With Carl, yeah. I took you in, yeah. How was that? Well, you know Carl, don't you? I had him at Blackburn.
Paddy McGuinness 1:12
Did you get a word in?
Unknown 1:14
Well, you know, I had to stop him trying to be manager.
Paddy McGuinness 1:19
I don't surprise myself.
Unknown 1:20
Am I doing a session here, Carl, or not?
Paul Scholes 1:24
Can I join in? Can I join in? When you go to... Carl! I'm going to say, you know, when Leeds got in touch with you, did they say, Luke, you've got four games?

What is the significance of winning a trip to New York?

Paul Scholes 1:35
Or did they sort of entice you in a little bit and go, Luke, if it goes well, we'll keep you on?
Unknown 1:39
Angus Kinnear, I worked with at West Ham. Angus was the chief CEO at Leeds at the time. And I rang him and said, look... Give me the 12 or 14 games left. I'm ringing you now saying, just give me a chance. I think I can save you. Looking at the team you've got, what do you mean?

How do winners' mentalities shape success in football?

Unknown 2:02
And they just got rid of the American coach.
Sam Allardyce 2:06
Yeah. I can't remember his name.

What are the quickfire questions asked to the guests?

Sam Allardyce 2:08
Not Bruce. What's it called, that fella?
Unknown 2:11
Anyway, that's my bad memory because of my age these days anyway. Unfortunately, they went for Garcia, I think it was, Spanish court, and I was in Alex's office after the game. This is the first time I've ever said this, by the way. I haven't even said this on my own podcast. I was in the game, and I looked at my phone, and it's Angus. He went, when do you come? I went, you've got four games to go. He said, we're desperate. He said, we've just got rid of him. He said, shh. I've just recommended you. I said, yeah, you should have done that before. But I said, yeah, because I'll come. It's Leeds, isn't it? So we had the four games. Thoroughly enjoyed it, apart from obviously not being able to be a bit more effective than we were.
Unknown 3:03
We were effective performance-wise, but not results-wise, like you mean.
Paul Scholes 3:07
Yeah. When you go in and it's four games, do you get a sense off the players that everyone's buying into it? Or do you ever feel like, I can see some of them are looking elsewhere now, there's only four games left?
Unknown 3:18
No, not really. I thought the response was okay. But I mean, look, listen, I'm totally unique in too. So my first day was like, where do you have your teeth done? I mean, was it Turkey or what?
Paddy McGuinness 3:33
Are you asking Paddy there?
Paul Scholes 3:36
I'll be asking for my money back.
Unknown 3:38
I can't say that because I've just had mine done, but I haven't had them done in Turkey. Oh, well, look, I thought it was something different. I thought you looked well. Even I've had my own done. But all I'm doing is breaking the ice, because I'm wondering who's this, like another one, fourth one, is it fourth, third this year? And like you said before, took Kyle Robinson in, like I mean, so... And Robbie Keane. Oh, God, yeah, you do know Robbie. Robbie's done great. Yeah, brilliant. I mean, he's great. And I think that... Carl's done great as well, by the way. Just by what we do, we just say, look, it's got to be, you know, lifting it, not the depressing side of it. Or try and organise a team. I mean...
Paddy McGuinness 4:23
That's something to what Deserby said after last year's game. Did you see his comments about saying he needs to be more of a brother or a father to him? Yeah, of course you do.
Nicky Butt 4:31
Do you think that happens when they're in such a bad place? They need an arm around them, need to be loved and a bit of a... Because I'm saying that about, obviously before Michael went to United, it was a bit like that, wasn't it?
