Ep. 50 Messi's Farewell, Man City's Statement, and Chelsea's Collapse
We have hit the big five-oh! In this milestone episode, Dimitri and Niyi open with the emotional backdrop of Messi's farewell from the Argentina National team on October 6, 2026. They then dive into some big Premier League questions going into the international break after Matchday 5, including whether Manchester City are already the title favourites, or if it's still Arsenal's to lose. They then break down Arsenal's shock loss to Brighton and what it exposed, followed by unpacking Chelsea's collapse, including the structural flaws of the team despite Cole Palmer's brilliance, and why defense still wins titles. The boys then look at Canadian stars abroad, highlighted by Jonathan David's revival at Atletico Madrid, and then close with Messi's Argentina legacy and what comes next.

2026-27 Old Big Ears Podcast Season Kickoff: Chelsea's Ceiling, Arsenal Showdown & Champions League Favorites
The boys at Old Big Ears Podcast are back for the new 2026-27 Premier League season. We dig into the promoted clubs, throw a few jabs Tottenham's way, and get straight into the big question: where does Chelsea realistically finish this year, and who's their standout player? From there we run through our full title picks, smart squad-building takes, and early reads on Arsenal, Manchester City, and Manchester United. We preview Chelsea vs Arsenal on Saturday, September 6th, react to the Champions League draw, pick our key fixtures, and settle on who we think actually lifts the trophy in Europe. Plus the usual banter and a look ahead to what's coming next on the show.
