No Tippy Tappy Football with Sam Allardyce

This week Tim Sherwood and Natalie Pike sit down with former Liverpool & Republic Of Ireland midfielder Jason McAteer to discuss all things football from Tottenham's worrying season to where does Salah rank amongst Liverpool greats?

They start the pod by chatting about Cheltenham this week, why footballers love a day out at the races and why Jason wants his ICONIC white Liverpool suit back from Helen Chamberlain.

The trio then discuss in detail the future of Spurs manager Igor Tudor, the big red flags he's showing as Tottenham boss & why they are now the favourites for relegation out of Leeds, Forest & West Ham.

Tim, Jason & Natalie then chat about Liverpool's links to Spurs defender Micky Van der Ven, Why Salah's leadership skills shows that he isn't the issue at Liverpool & why the pressure is still on Arne Slot despite winning their last 4 games.

Tim & Jason then discuss where Mo Salah ranks amongst the Liverpool greats, who makes up his top 5 greatest Liverpool players of all time and which player had the best individual one season in Liverpool's history.

They then talk about why teams outside of the traditional 'big 6' are disrespecting the FA Cup after Fulham & Sunderland made changes before their FA Cup exits before debating is Joao Pedro an elite forward alongside Haaland, Kane & Mbappe.

Jason then gives an honest answer when asked about his old trigger nickname in football and why he's wanted to fit in at Liverpool having started his career in non-league before now having a masters degree.

Finally we end the pod with Tim & Jason saying who they believe will be the managers of Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City, Tottenham & Chelsea on the first game of next season before Jason tells the story of how he reconciled with former Ireland teammate Jason McAteer.
