Premier League Rant!

Two long lost pals catch-up and check in with the Premier League to offer a break from the International Break. With roughly a quarter of the season in the bag, dare we say that this is shaping up the most competitive Premier League season EVER? And yes we've took an extended vacation, please don't kill us. Enjoy :)

We welcome back beautiful footy fam from a long international break. Hope you've been well, we check in on our whereabouts during the long break then get right into the big action. Mourinho's Manchester United looks almost naive against a well prepared and motivated Manchester City headed by arch rival Pep Guardiola. What went wrong for our old buddy Jose? Liverpool have one of those good days against former champs Leicester City, they were due. Now to face Chelsea who buckled against Swansea to drop 2 points. Arsenal win with a few good rolls of the dice. All that and less on this week's WPLR. Enjoy :) Tweet us @RantKings

We talk Week 3 in the Premier League. F*UCK the coming international break btw. Manchesters impress once again, slowly carving their identities. We'll see who's best next week when they match up. Juicy. Liverpool start strong against Tottenham but get jacked for all 3 points via a Danny Rose rocket equalizer. Arsenal decide to show up, fashionably late. Leicester play like the team we've all grown to know and love but subconsciously hate. All that and more. Tweet us @RantKings Enjoy :)

Week 2 and we still don't know sh*t yet. Anyone who tells you different is your enemy. However, let's face it. It's likely that Arsenal won't with the EPL this year. I think that much we can all agree on right? Also just as likely that one of the Manchesters do win it. I mean c'mon, can you believe the amount of talent in that city between the two teams? They could possibly end Isis if they really wanted to. One of them are hands-down taking the trophy this year. And let's not forget, Liverpool got Europa League written all over them already. Don't ask us about Chelsea tho, we are just as confused as you but one thing WE CAN tell you is Leicester ain't doin jack this year. Not to mention, Spurs. All that and less on this week's Premier League Rant. Enjoy :) PS. Twitter just called to tell us we are about to hit the maximum limit of followers. I know, freaking sucks. It's ok because we sweet-talked them and they are allowing people to follow us for another five minutes of you reading these show notes. So please take advantage of this once in a lifetime opportunity and follow @RantKings on Twitter. You won't regret it.

We are happy to be back with a brand spankin new EPL season. Premier League has begun so listen up. Today we take a good look at Arsenal FC and their continued disappointment on game 1, this time to an inspired Liverpool offense. We then talk Manchesters, juicy games for both Manchester United and Manchester City as Mourinho and Guardiola show us what they are made of. Leicester also showed us what they are made of, apparently not the same material that won them the league in just a few months ago. Listen, enjoy and follow us on twitter @RantKings )

A rowdy review of the Euro 2016 Tournament starting with a look at a dramatic final that dares to wake you up at 117th minute. Cristiano "THE NECK" Ronaldo proved he can be a leader from the sidelines and motivate his Portugal to their first ever major international tournament. Now we beg to ask the question, WTF FRANCE? Grow a pair. Followed by an open table discussion on our fondest memories of the tournament, hint: They weren't generally the actual games. And yes a bit of haterade is drank on this show, all that and more. Enjoy :) Tweet us @RantKings

As Copa America Centenario came to an end, the Euros in France is just beginning to cook. This week's full blooded show is broken into two main segments: Copa America & Euro Knockout Review to the Quarterfinals. [00:00-27:00] We begin with the head-scratching defeat of Argentina by a scrappy Chile side. A special mention to the referee who will win some type of indie-film festival award for his performance. Shortly after the game, an announcement to quit international football by Lionel Messi shocked the footballing world. We look at his motives and ask the question, WHY MESSI WHY? Then a quick word on the USA Men's National team, where do they go from here?? [27:00-END] With the Euro 2016 Quarterfinals looming, we go through what happened in the Round of 16 to lead us with the 8 remaining teams. Italy impressed, Germany smells their crotch into the QFs, France yet to peak but improving, M.F-ing ICELAND, ohhh Iceland. An extended look at England's bloody and bruised exit from the Euros. All that and a peek into the Quarterfinals. ENJOY :) Tweet us @RantKings

Much can happen in a week of International Football, and much did happen indeed. Today we debate the fresh loss of the US Men's National Team to the magical Lionel Messi's Argentina. Is the Team USA simply not good enough? Is there anything coach Jurgen Klinsmann could have done to be more competitive in the match? We discuss and debate. We also review how all of the EURO 2016 groups played out. With the Knock-out (Round of 16) looming, we discuss initial impressions, surprises, and flops thus far. We end with a look into the matchups in the coming week in the Euros and the Copa America Centenario final where big bad Argentina face a tenacious Chile. Enjoy :) Tweet us @RantKings

This week we bask in the First Round of games of the EURO 2016 tournament. All the supposed dark horses are put to the test. A few big upsets, namely Belgium falling to a masterful Italy with Antonio Conte pulling the tactical strings. We go over each group as they stand after playing their first round of games. Before that however, we check in with Copa America CENTENARIO. Mexico keep up the good work while giants Brazil look like amateurs, albeit unlucky to lose to a clear hand ball. Nonetheless Dunga's side didn't deserve anything from their pitiful display in the Copa America. We also talk Chile, Argentina and last but not least TEAM USA (USMNT) taking the group by the horns after a heroic 10-man display against a tough Paraguay side. All that with a look at the Quarterfinals and the usual banter. Enjoy :) Tweet us @RantKings

A FULL EURO 2016 KICKOFF PREVIEW SHOW. We talk groups, teams, strengths/weaknesses, predict winners, flops, golden boots, dark horses, white horses, chartreuse horses, it all gets covered on today's show. We also take a look at two interesting games in the COPA AMERICA CENTENARIO. US Men's National Team otherwise known as #USMNT cream a sheepish Costa Rica and stay in their group to face Paraguay in the final match. We then salivate over the thrilling 2-0 defeat of Chile by local rivals, Argentina. Without Messi. Enjoy :) Tweet us @RantKings

We usher in the first weekend of Copa America: The Centenario Edition with a scathing critique of Klinsmann's USMNT. We weigh up Mexico's chances after a they continue winning ways with an impressive start against a Suarezless Uruguay. Brazil bores and we look forward to Chile vs. Argentina.

We're back with much needed Weekly Premier League podcast. Hope you missed us, cuz we've missed you. This week we take a look at LVG getting the sack as Manchester United usher in their deal with the Devil, Jose "The Special One" Mourinho. THE GREAT MOURINHO DEBATE on Jose's role to be at Old Trafford. Will his style fit? Is he welcomed? We take a gander at the transfers floating around the opening of the transfer window aka Silly Season. Arsenal make a move, Pep Guardiola looking to open the checkbook, Zlatan doing his best Zlatan impression. All that and more. We also look forward to the upcoming Champions League Final where Christiano Ronaldo's Real Madrid face bitter rivals Atletico Madrid with Diego Simeone as their lifeblood. It's good to be back. Hit us on twitter @RantKings Enjoy :)

With the FINAL week of the 2015/16 Premier League season over, we take a look at the main games that solidified the top 4. Most notably, the North London surprise as Tottenham really fudge the bucket with their finish and let bitter rivals Arsenal leapfrog them to a gut wrenching St. Totterigham's Day. Manchester City scrape the 4th place from the bottom of Manchester United's boot, much to Pep Guardiola's relief. Each top team is assessed to discuss what they each need to succeed in the Premier League 2016/2017 season. Last but not least, our team of the season and biggest flops debated on.
