This episode is powered by Fuse Energy. Before we kick off a quick pre-match warm-up from Fuse, a question on the teams and players who make things count. Which Premier League player scored the most goals as a substitute in 24-25? Duran is my answer. It's not Duran.
It's either Muniz or Wilson. I'm going to go Wilson then.
Well, you're both wrong. It's Muniz. Goodness. So, the winner is the person that is closest to guessing the number of goals that Rodrigo Muniz scored coming off the bench last season.
Six. I'll go one up then, seven. The answer is six. Yes!
Oh, it's the winner. Yes! The best teams find an edge wherever they can. It should be the same with your energy. Take control of your energy like it's part of your game plan.

Coming up on today's show. I just feel as if there's been a change in Arsenal and change of mentality in terms of how positive everything is. Miles, Lewis, Skelly. Brilliant. What a performance. You know, he does make a very different to what Zubimendi does. When he gets the ball, his first thought is forward. Can I pass it forward? And I think that makes a huge difference for Arsenal.
They're coming into form at the right time. And that's the most important thing.
for Arsenal and England, one or two of them, which is encouraging.
Travis Kelly is my favourite winger in European football.
They're going to have to be at their very, very best to stop this PSG team.
I've just got this sneaky feeling Arsenal are going to do this double.
Hello and welcome to The Rest Is Football with Micah Richards with a beaming smile on his face, Alan Shearer and me, Gary Lineker. We're doing this very late at night after the Champions League semi-final between Bayern and PSG. We've been waiting for big meeks. They're getting the money's worth out of you, Micah.
Oh, my. It's been a long day, but it's been eventful, to say the least. I was with Beckham today. Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on.
Just pick that name up there.
I was with a real superstar today, actually. Yes, I was with David... Sir David, if you don't know. Oh, no, no, no. We're on, it's different for me. We're mates, you know what I mean? I don't just call him Sir David. I just call him Dave, Dave-o. You know what I mean? Dave-o. That's the connection we've got.
Dave-o.
So yeah, I was on his show for a while and then went back to our show. So it's been eventful to say the least.
Yeah, Al, you were at the game. Let's start with that one actually, because obviously huge for Arsenal. It's been a great two weeks, 10 days for them, hasn't it really? I thought they were really good last night. I mean, it's tough opposition, Atletico, really well organised. They probably didn't play too much great football, Atletico. I thought Arsenal played really well. Solid, some excellent performances. You were there. What was it like?
Yeah, I thought it was a great atmosphere. I felt as if the whole atmosphere in the stadium was very, very positive.
What led Arsenal to their first Champions League final in 20 years?
After the weekend, I just feel as if there's been a change in Arsenal and change of mentality in terms of how positive everything is after Saturday, after Monday, when City drew. And then last evening, I just, yeah, I just think there's been a huge change in attitude and everyone's together. Everyone's all excited rather than nervy and edgy. I got that, you know, I think athletically, I don't think they were great. They certainly lacked a bit of quality up front, I thought. But yeah, I thought Arsenal did more than enough and without doubt the best team deserved to get through.
Micah? Miles Lewis Skelly. Brilliant. What a performance. He played him against Fulham, wasn't it? The weekend. And the big debate was, was he going to bring Zubi Mendy back? Put his energy in there, his tenacity, his game, his confidence. I just thought he was brilliant. To do that as a teenager...
You know, he does make a very different to what Zubimendi does.
