What a week! In the latest episode, Charlie Parker-Turner and Neil Smith are joined by the BBC’s Johnny Cantor as they analyse Brighton’s demolition of champions Arsenal and their fantastic comeback at Old Trafford, which saw the Seagulls defeat Manchester United and book their place in the next round of the Carabao Cup.

We also delve deeper into the manager’s style of play this season and ask: ‘Is this HurzelerBall?’ There’s a discussion on Babis Kostoulas and his development. Plus, as Albion celebrate 125 years, we talk to Johnny about his memories of commentating on Brighton for nearly 25 years.

We also take our first look at the WSL and Albion Women. Annabel Bassett is on hand to provide her report of the season so far and former Brighton star and Sky Sports pundit Fern Whelan assesses the progress of the Seagulls under new manager Arturo Ruiz.
