FA CUP WEEKEND O'WONDER: "Arsenal vs Liverpool. The FA Cup may be a sideshow for both of these teams, but playing at home before a long suffering crowd.

"What is undoubtedly the biggest profile game of the 3rd round: first place Liverpool, face the team who were champions of Christmas. But… Liverpool are already in the Carabao Cup semi-final and will face up to Fulham on Wednesday in the first leg of that clash. With the league title-race front of mind, will Jurgen Klopp really want to clutter the fixture list further with an FA Cup run for his now Mo Salah-less side?"Rog previews a weekend of FA Cup Wonder as Liverpool travel to Arsenal, Newcastle travel to arch rivals Sunderland, and Wrexham visit just across the border neighbors Shrewsbury.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

"I need to be on top of my game (...) because there are other players in the USMNT who are incredible, working super hard to get the same thing that I want. It's a fun position to be in... At the end of the day, we're all friends as well. None of us have any bad blood. I think it's just friendly competition".Herc had a fantastic conversation with Daryl Dike, striker for West Bromwich Albion in the EFL Championship and the first guest of Vamos in 2024. There are few things as great as opening up the mind of an athlete. Daryl shared all about his recent Achilles injury, and how it affects athletes both mentally and physically. He also talked about his experiences living in England, his plans for the upcoming year, and much more.

THE GAME THAT WAS STILL DRUNK FROM NEW YEARS EVE: "Maybe Liverpool's biggest error was to try so hard to score, because they were never more dangerous than when they had the ball in their own goalmouth." Rog and Davo break down the non-stop holiday madness that was Premier League football. Liverpool's wild, xG-filled win over Newcastle keeps them top of table to start 2024, Arsenal crash against an upstart Fulham. Plus, Manchester City lurk in the shadows, Chelsea survive a Luton scare, and Everton's point-deduction bounce looks evermore distant.
