VAR clips the Seagulls’ wings, SpongeBob makes his Bundesliga debut, and the 2022 World Cup appears out of thin air

With the much-anticipated 2022 World Cup looming large in the distance we discuss the familiar routes the home nations will take to Qatar, as England book tickets to San Marino and Scotland play Israel for the 326th time.

Jules, Andy and Pete also look back on an ultimately fruitless night for Brighton, as yet another bizarre call from VAR denied the Seagulls an impressive win against Southampton. We also hear from Borussia Dortmund’s latest signing, try not to get on Siniša Mihajlović’s bad side and wonder what’s next for Paul Pogba.
