Manchester City looks to extend its incredible run of Premier League dominance, but there may be one opponent they can’t stop: the Premier League’s judicial system. City is facing an investigation into its financial dealings with the potential outcomes ranging from no consequences to relegation. Men in Blazers founder Roger Bennett joins the show to discuss all the biggest EPL stories and what it could mean for the USMNT to bring on head coach Mauricio Pochettino.

Plus, Jeff Bezos could be mulling a bid for the Celtics, and we explore how the NCAA is trying to tamp down the power of NIL collectives as it opens the door to athletes getting paid directly by their schools.
