Haaland, Ronaldo, Mitrovic and more – opening day is upon us

Haaland, Ronaldo, Mitrovic and more – opening day is upon us

By The Athletic

Premier League matchday 1 sees Jimbo assemble a pod squad of Tom Williams, Laurie Whitwell and Adrian Clarke. Will Erling Haaland score another debut hat-trick? Will Aleksandar Mitrovic finally step up to the Premier League? Who will be sadder this weekend – Brendan Rodgers or the Spanish Brendan Rodgers? Laurie gives us the lowdown on how Erik ten Hag is trying to instill discipline at Old Trafford. And how Cristiano Ronaldo is proving an obstacle to that. Inspired by Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus, which players just looked wrong in a different jersey? Plus opening day memories, Adrian’s holiday with Luke Ayling, and unfortunately for us all, Forest are trying to sign someone called Jizz Hornkamp.  RUNNING ORDER:  • PART 1a: All or Nothing musings (03.00) • PART 1b: Opening weekend memories (06.30)  • PART 1c: West Ham v Man City & Fulham v Liverpool previews (11.00) • PART 2a: PL players no longer taking the knee (20.00) • PART 2b: Everton v Chelsea, Palace v Arsenal and players that look weird in another shirt (23.00) • PART 3: Man Utd v Brighton preview (36.00) • PART 4: Newcastle v Forest and the rest of the Premier League weekend (47.00) SIGN UP TO THE ATHLETIC TODAY FOR £1 A MONTH FOR THE FIRST 6 MONTHS • theathletic.com/totally   GET IN TOUCH: • follow us on Instagram • find us on Facebook • send us a tweet: @TheTotallyShow   READ STUFF ON OUR WEBSITE: • check out thetotallyfootballshow.com.
