Factor 50 Football Podcast – Episode 27 | Arsenal 1–2 Man City Reaction 😬

This one has been a long time coming…

After weeks of build-up, we finally get Mike’s reaction to Arsenal losing 2–1 to Manchester City… and it does not disappoint.

If you’ve been following the title race, you already know how big this result could be. So the big question is…

👉 Are Arsenal bottling the league?

In this episode, we get into:

• Mike’s honest, unfiltered reaction to Arsenal’s defeat
• Whether this result has handed the title to City
• Is it now Manchester City’s to lose?
• What happens to Mikel Arteta if Arsenal fall short?
• Does Mike still believe Arsenal can win it… or has his tone changed?
• A quick look at what’s going on at Manchester United
• Could Tottenham Hotspur actually be in trouble?! 😅
• And of course… the predictions game returns

This is one of those episodes where emotions are running high, opinions are flying, and nothing is off the table.

If you’ve been waiting to see how Mike reacts if Arsenal slip up…

This is the one.

Episode 26 – £100m budgets, transfer battles & Adam’s downfall 😅

This one’s a bit different…

Mike has taken over Arsenal.
Adam is in charge of Manchester United.

They’ve each been given £100m and told…

Go build your squad.

But there are rules:

• Players can be sold… but only for realistic values
• Players can be signed… but again, realistic only
• Every deal gets debated
• If they don’t agree on the price… the deal is OFF

So it turns into a bit of a transfer negotiation battle.

• Who gets sold?
• Who stays?
• And who actually makes it through the approval process?

Some deals get done…

Some get completely shut down 😅

They also catch up on the predictions league…

And let’s just say… Adam is not exactly flying right now.

Give it a listen and let us know:

Who built the better squad?

Episode 25 – England XIs, De Zerbi to Spurs & a transfer special incoming 👀

It’s the international break… so we’ve gone rogue a bit.

This week, me and Mike pick our England starting XIs for the World Cup.

Simple question… but it gets interesting quickly.

• Who’s nailed on?
• Who misses the plane?
• And where do we completely disagree?

There are a few shouts in here that might divide opinion as well…

We also get into the big news around De Zerbi appointment at Spurs — and what that could actually mean.

No predictions this week.

But…

We’re back next episode with something a bit different 👀

A full transfer special where me and Mike map out what we’d do if we were in charge:

• Arsenal’s summer
• Man United’s rebuild

Budgets, ins, outs… the lot.

Give this one a listen and let us know — who’s in your England XI?
