We begin discussing Manchester City, after reports claimed that the majority of the 115 charges against the club - for breaking Financial Fair Play rules - were found to have been proven. Man City deny all wrongdoing.
We then move to England’s 3-2 defeat to world champions Spain. Jack describes it as an entertaining game, highlighting Marc Guehi’s error while also praising the strong spells of play from Thomas Tuchel’s side.
Our attention then turns to Ireland, who are set to face Israel in the Nations League. Miguel discusses whether it is hypocritical for Ireland to play Israel given that they have previously played against Qatar and Afghanistan.

Hannah Wilkes is joined by Dominic King, Martin Samuel and John Cross to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.
We kick off with Arsenal’s defeat at Brighton, breaking down how Fabian Hürzeler’s side dominated the game through an impressive out-of-possession structure and aggressive man-to-man press, culminating in a 3-0 victory with 40% possession.
We then turn to Tottenham, who scored their first two Premier League goals but lost 3-2 to Aston Villa, leaving them in the bottom three. Despite some encouraging football, Roberto De Zerbi admitted he was “disappointed, sad and frustrated” and revealed he didn’t speak to his players after the game. But is De Zerbi’s reputation beginning to come under scrutiny?
Finally, we turn to another divisive VAR decision as Everton’s Barry saw a header ruled out while leading Ipswich 1-0. Despite no complaints from the Ipswich players, VAR judged Brennan Johnson to have been interfering with play. Dominic King and John Cross disagree over whether the goal should have stood — but was VAR right to intervene?

Charlotte Duncker of The Times, The Telegraph's Sam Dean and broadcaster Jacqui Oatley join Hannah Wilkes to go beyond the headlines in today's Sunday Supplement.
It's now four games without a win for Tottenham and so we start, again, with Spurs on Sunday Supplement! After their 0-0 draw with Everton, we dissect another disappointing evening in North London.
Meanwhile, Arsenal recorded another win, this time at Sunderland, with former Newcastle captain Bruno Guimarães amongst the goals. Can anyone stop the Gunners this season?
Are Chelsea too soft? A 2-2 draw against Hull prompted some interesting quotes from manager, Xabi Alonso, who thinks his side need to be 'competing better'. Is he right?
What does the men's Ballon d'Or say about the current state of the Premier League? We discuss an interesting piece from journalist Martin Samuel, who asks if the lack of Premier League stars amongst the nominees highlights a talent drain in the English top flight.
Plus, how are the papers looking ahead to Sunday's Manchester derby?

Hannah Wilkes is joined by John Cross, James Olley and Jonathan Northcroft to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.
We kick off with Spurs’ difficult start to the season. Roberto De Zerbi’s side sit in the bottom three, having failed to score in their opening three games. But the biggest talking point is the VAR decision that ruled out Neco Williams’ goal — a decision that, had it stood, would have separated the two sides and condemned Spurs to a third consecutive defeat. John believes the referees got it wrong, so we ask: should there be a higher threshold for VAR intervention?
We then turn to Manchester City’s “ugly” 1-0 win over Coventry. But is Jonathan being too harsh with his assessment that it’s “just like Pep, but slower and far less decisive”?
Finally, we turn to a frantic summer transfer window and assess the new squad cost ratio rules. Are they leaving smaller clubs with no choice but to sell, sell, sell?
