On today’s episode, we are joined by a former Arsenal favourite who is 1 of only 8 players to score over 100 goals for the club. Theo Walcott shot to fame at 16 when he signed for Arsenal in 2006, and his profile soared further when he was called up for England for the 2006 World Cup six months later. Upon his signing, he was widely tipped for greatness with comparisons to Thierry Henry. To go along with the goals, Theo won multiple FA Cups during his time in North London, whether that number is 2 or 3 is a point of debate in this very conversation.

Theo joins Simon in Frankfurt, Germany to discuss his career, from his rapid rise in professional football to his time at Arsenal and England. He shares what it was like to play under Arsene Wenger in a transitional period in the club's history. Theo also provides insights on Mikel Arteta, highlighting the traits he saw in him as a player that have contributed to his success as a manager, while also touching on the current England squad and their chances at EURO 2024.

Football fever is sweeping across Germany as Euro 2024 gets into full swing. England kicked off their campaign with a 1-0 win over Serbia, thanks to a Jude Bellingham header. It’s a familiar story: a bright start, lost control, and a nervy finish. Nonetheless, Southgate has led the boys to a win. However, with key figures like Foden struggling to impose themselves on the game, has it left us with more questions than answers?

The Tartan Army descended on Germany in their thousands, full of expectation ahead of their group opener against the host nation. But Scotland’s 5-1 thrashing in Munich has threatened to dampen their excitement and an early exit. What went so wrong for Steve Clarke’s men?

Simon, Graeme, and Troy discuss all this and more from Germany in the latest episode of Three Up Front.

For the first time in a long time England enter a major tournament as the favourites. It is also the tournament that is set to define the legacy of Gareth Southgate and his tenure with England.

Under his guidance he has created the most harmonious England squad in decades and nurtured a fresh bond between fans and the players. He’s led them to the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final in the last three major tournaments - which previously had not been achieved for over 30 years. Now with arguably the best England squad since the "Golden Generation", can Southgate go one step further and lead England to the promised land?

Simon and Graeme are joined by former England international Joleon Lescott to discuss England’s chances at Euro 2024, how Gareth can achieve success and what this would mean for his legacy. They also talk about the attacking talent at Southgate’s disposal as well as the issues in defence whilst looking at the teams who could potentially cause England a problem.

All this and more in the latest episode of Three Up Front.

The managerial merry-go-round is in full swing. Mourinho has sparked fanfare in Turkey by becoming Fenerbahce’s new manager. Vincent Kompany has officially been unveiled as Bayern Munich’s new manager, and Plymouth have announced Wayne Rooney as their new manager for next season. One manager staying put is Carlo Ancelotti as he welcomes Kylian Mbappe to his newly crowned Champions League squad.

Kevin De Bruyne’s recent comments on Saudi Arabia have seemingly opened the door for a transfer, which has raised a few eyebrows as many believe him to be still performing at the highest level. While his current club, Man City, prepare to challenge the Premier League - taking their already-strained relationship to the next level.

All this and more in this week’s episode of Three Up Front, with Joleon Lescott joining Simon and Graeme as a guest host, covering for Troy this week.
