The Sports Agents

Manchester City have been found guilty of 114 of the 115 Premier League charges... So what happens now?
Mark Chapman and Nedum Onuoha trace the story back to its origins — from Portuguese whistleblower Rui Pinto to the Der Spiegel investigation which brought it to light.
The guys speak to Christoph Winterbach, the journalist at the heart of the investigation who first discovered the emails which could bring down Manchester City.
Then we turn our attention to the fallout.
If a legal bloodbath ensues and rival Premier League clubs begin pursuing Manchester City for lost revenue, prize money or European qualification - what does that mean for the future of the Premier League?

VAR 'fury' felt like it may have finally peaked this weekend...
A Manchester derby dogged by refereeing controversy just 24 hours after Mikel Arteta gave 'Pro Ref' both barrels after Arsenal’s win against Sunderland on a weekend when Premier League refereeing seemed to be in crisis.
Gabby, Mark & Nedum get into the fallout from the latest VAR disaster and also look at the problems facing Man United after their defeat to 10 man Man City left Michael Carrick’s side with just four points from four games.
There’s also athletics after ‘The ultimate’ World Championships saw most British athletes not named Josh Kerr come up short - and Gabby weighs in on Sydney Sweeney's highly controversial sports gambling advert after female athletes at this weekend's Ultimate Championships showed everyone "what women in sport look like".
