After Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was sacked following United's dismal run of form recently, a lot of talk has been about who should take charge of the club next. In this episode, it is discussed what the club should do both on and off the pitch in order to get them back into the upper-echelons of English and European football. We also discuss why West Ham have become so good under David Moyes, and if Mikel Arteta was naïve for setting his team up to consistently play out from the back at Anfield over the weekend.

Is Xavi Hernandez the right man to see Barcelona through this period of transition and take them back to the ethos of greatness like under the Pep Guardiola days? Is Aston Villa a good move for Steven Gerrard to build a project or is he using it as a mere stepping stone to eventually get the Liverpool job? Will Newcastle find some identity under Eddie Howe? Was Amina Mohammed right to disband the current FKF committee over allegations of draft and is there a way back for the beleaguered Nick Mwendwa? This and more on this week's episode of Chobo Football Podcast.
Arsenal managed to snatch a draw on Monday night, albeit questionably, against Patrick Vieira's Crystal Palace as Man United suffered a 4-2 defeat at the hands of Leicester City. These results sparked a lot of debate amongst the respective clubs' fanbase ,raising questions as to whether they are the right men for the jobs. In this episode, we discuss in detail the on pitch tactical problems Arteta and Ole are facing whilst managing their clubs , analyze why Mohammed Salah is arguably the best player in world football right now and whether Liverpool are genuine title contenders.
