Oh listener, it had to happen one day but nobody expected it this soon. Tom, Luka and OJ's favourite son announced his retirement on October 10 and there's no better way to get over the emotion of no more Eden Hazard than by talking about him.
He's a footballing star so there's lots to cover including how he will be remembered, if his career was a waste and just why he always has to be compared with Mohamed Salah.
-
The boys are back to discuss a Chelsea win and it's been a long time coming. There's plenty to talk about after a big week of football including beating Fulham and Brighton with some standout performances. There's praise for nearly everyone as Mauricio Pochettino gets it right with Mykhailo Mudryk coming good at the right time and Cole Palmer already looking at home.
RARE POSITIVE CONTENT WARNING

Who could have guessed? Chelsea fail to win yet again because it's still 2023 and players are still out injured. Tom, Luka and OJ join up to discuss just how long it will be until they are called up to fill the bench as well as more serious debates over the state of the team, how long a process usually takes and if there's more positivity than fans are allowing themselves to recognise.
-
Another day and another disappointing Chelsea result, when will it end? Tom and Luka gather to discuss just how Mauricio Pochettino got it so wrong against Nottingham Forest, what's going on with Ben Chilwell, whether Thiago Silva should take some time out and how this all fits together with the transfer market work.
