How Arne 'Slot' right in at Liverpool & why tennis stars want their phones back?
Liverpool have won the Premier League and Arne Slot showed us all how a handover should be done. Turns out, replacing a talismanic figure like Juergen Klopp who won 8 trophies over 9 years, needn’t be the mess that the likes of Arsenal, Manchester United and countless other clubs have made of it in recent years. So how did Arne Slot in so well? Gabby and Mark speak to the Football Correspondent for the Sunday Times, Jonathan Northcroft, and John Gibbons from The Anfield Wrap. (11:25)
Is tennis in for a shake up after a giant lawsuit? The man behind the lawsuit, Ahmad Nassar, the Executive Director of the Professional Tennis Players Association, explains why they're suing tennis' governing bodies over prize money, schedules, "invasive search of personal devices" and more. (31:39)
And after a huge weekend of sport Gabby and Mark reflect on England's Grand Slam at the Six Nations, the synergy between Arsenal women's and men's Champions League success, the father-son drama at the Eubank-Benn fight, and how hot it must have been wearing a rhino costume at the London Marathon.
