Football Weekly: Arsenal left sore as United and Chelsea get off to a flyer

After the Big Kick Off, the Big Show - and Max Rushden is here for the first Football Weekly of the season, and he's joined in the pod by his new best friend in showbiz Barry Glendenning as well as Paul MacInnes and James Horncastle.

What to discuss? Well, the Premier League is only one weekend old and already Manchester United are unbeatable, José Mourinho's referring to himself in the third person, Arsenal are in crisis, and Stoke's Jonathan Walters cannot score from the penalty spot. Oh, football, how we've missed you.

Also in the podcast, there's Sid Lowe on the phone from Madrid to tell us about Barcelona's 7-0 thumping of Levante and a fully informed round-up of the rest of the action from the top European leagues ahead of the midweek Champions League and Europa League qualifiers. Take that, fans of Shakhtyor Jaraganda and Ludogrets Razgrad!

Plus, all you wanted to know about new Liverpool loan-signing Aly Cissokho's teeth and Trevor Nelson's microwave.

Have a listen and tell us what you think. And if you think it's time to get in shape, why not download our free Guardian Guide to Running podcasts?
