Men In Blazers

Rog is joined by Everton and England No. 1 Jordan Pickford to talk about the art and mindset of goalkeeping. Pickford dives into his post save reactions, the mental switch that activates when he steps over the white lines, and how adrenaline and improvisation shape his best stops. Pickford closes with what he hopes his Everton legacy will be and how much he wants to win with the club. This episode is presented by our great friends at Christopher Ward, the Official Timing Partner of the Men in Blazers Media Network.

Rog and Rory are back to breakdown another drama-soaked Premier League weekend, including why Eberechi Eze's game winner against his former club Crystal Palace is indicative of how Arsenal have changed the game, how Liverpool's incredible league losing streak comes down to Mo Salah and Arne Slot, and why Manchester United have Matheus Cunha to thank for their recent run of form. Plus, could we see Bournemouth or Sunderland in Europe next year? And the reason why Rory thinks the Premier League has become the NFL...but with shorts.
