It’s been a privilege watching the games with you in 2024. I hope you have a happy, healthy and successful 2025.

A Molineux bow for Vitor Pereira - as Ruben Amorim strives for consistency. See you Boxing Day.

No surprise that Wolves have acted - but their last four transfer windows have made the job extraordinarily difficult for whoever comes next. Gary O’Neil willl soon be installed somewhere else, and I’d imagine he will be successful.

Lack of intensity from Portsmouth tonight - Derby not looking like a side who haven’t won here since early October. Reality check for Pompey - and probably already damage limitation

Looks like Kulusevski coming on for Spurs - maybe for Werner?

Spurs struggling to exert themselves going forward here at Ibrox - can’t get Son involved. Raskin has been excellent for Rangers… but not the sharpness they need in front of goal

Spurs with all the ball but no potency - Bournemouth good value for the lead.

Very much looking forward to this tomorrow… Everton and Wolves both hoping to put the weekend behind them and pick up a crucial win at a rival’s expense.

The calm after the storming performance. Conor Bradley and Alexis MacAllister the pick of a number of 5-star performances. The best I’ve seen Liverpool play for some time.

Liverpool haven’t beaten Real in their last eight meetings - Vinicius has played in the last five of those, but is missing tonight. 9 of the 22 who started the 2022 Final start again this evening… and there’s a first UCL start for Conor Bradley

Man City have lost 1 of the last 78 games in which Rodri has played…. And 10 of the last 28 that he hasn’t.

Sam Parkin’s alongside me and it’s live on talkSPORT2

Plymouth more than decent at home - nobody’s lost more away games than Watford. But the Hornets can go fourth tonight and start as favourites.

San Marino are PROMOTED!!

8% of all the international goals San Marino have EVER scored have come tonight

San Marino 3-1 up in Liechtenstein, on the verge of promotion. It’ll be only their THIRD win in 211 games. (3/10/198) All three will have come against Liechtenstein.

This mix and match England side started well, Madueke excellent and created the goal for Watkins. But they stopped getting the ball to the wingers and allowed Greece back in. Madueke, and Gordon hold the key here in Athens. 0-1

Athens - where Kane is on the bench and that far corner is a long way away!

Beautiful late autumn day in Athens. England have won all four games they’ve played away to Greece - they have to make it five to keep automatic promotion hopes alive.

Next up: Greece v England on Thursday. England have already used 27 different players in this campaign… and seven more who haven’t featured so far will travel to Athens.
