Arsenal are officially the 2025/26 Premier League champions, and Paul gives credit where it's due, tipping David Raya as his Arsenal player of the season while wondering if Mikel Arteta's side can now build a dynasty.

Plus, Paul shares his surprise at the Enzo Maresca rumours at City.</p><p><br></p><p>Liverpool's disappointing season, Mohamed Salah's behaviour and whether Arne Slot deserves another shot are all on the agenda, before Paul turns to the big news at his beloved Chelsea - Xabi Alonso is coming, and he's cautiously excited.</p><p><br></p><p>Rounding things out, Paul touches on the Championship chaos involving Southampton's Spygate scandal, the A-League grand final between Sydney FC and Auckland, and why he thinks the 48-team World Cup format is a bad idea.</p><p><br></p><p>No Dave to argue with, no Adam to push back. Just Paul, a camera, and football.</p><p><br></p>","author_name":"Dave and Paul Talk Football"}
