The Sports Agents are ably replaced by Mark Pougatch as he mans the ship with Gabby and Mark both taking a well-deserved break.

He's joined by sports journalist Matt Hughes, who has insight into a potential points deduction facing Leicester City, which could end up being the difference between top-flight and Championship football come next season...

Then Rob Wilson, a professor of applied sports finance at UCFB, and former Man City defender Nedum Onuoha try to unpick the situation at Chelsea, where manager Enzo Maresca insists there's 'no mess', despite a squad of 40+ eligible players at his disposal, and a number of huge names including Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell frozen out.
