Arsenal Are Champions (Because Nobody’s Fighting Them)

It’s the Thursday edition of Chaz Kicks Off and Charlie’s on the move — suitcases packed, passport out, and a proper QPR trip incoming.

Chas is heading to New York for a fan takeover with the NYC R’s, a meet-and-greet, a bit of classic shirts culture, and even Nets vs Celtics at the Barclays before the big one: QPR vs Wrexham on Saturday. Proper transatlantic scenes.

Then it’s back to the Premier League — and we’re calling it early: “Arsenal are champions”… not because it’s done on paper, but because nobody looks like they’s got the stomach to chase them down. Squad depth for days, defensive steel, and a level of consistency everyone else is failing to match.

Super Sunday’s become Snoozy Sunday, and we’re not even going to pretend otherwise.

In this Monday bulletin, Charlie Austin tears into the state of the Premier League right now: same tactics, same slow build-up, same “chess match” nonsense… and fans paying top money to watch 90 minutes of nothing.

Manchester United are a circus. Spurs fans are booing again. And Charlie Austin says the traditional No.9 is officially dead.

In this week’s episode of Chaz Kicks Off, Charlie doesn’t hold back as we tear into the chaos engulfing the Premier League — from United’s never-ending managerial confusion to Tottenham’s identity crisis and why modern forwards just aren’t clinical anymore.

The Premier League’s been called “stale”… so the FA Cup turned up and chose chaos. 🔥

This Monday round-up is pure third-round madness: cupsets, red cards, extra time and goals flying in — including one of the biggest shocks in years as holders Crystal Palace get dumped out at Macclesfield after the volunteers clear the pitch and the underdogs do the rest.

A week that had everything — chaos at St James’ Park, a Newcastle poll that exploded to 15,000 votes, and Manchester United spiralling into what Charlie calls “an old boys’ club” with no plan and no identity.

New Year, same madness. Charlie’s back — and he’s not holding back. We’ve got the Blackpool ‘hotel room’ farce (yes, they made fans shut the curtains), Chelsea’s manager gone with a ten-million handshake, Arsenal looking like the festive period’s big winners, and Liverpool’s drop-off getting harder to watch. Plus: Newcastle fan reality checks, and Charlie’s Card is live — take him on and you could end up on the pod.

In this Boxing Day special of Chaz Kicks Off, Charlie Austin doesn’t hold back — questioning how tradition has been ripped up, why fans are paying the price, and whether the Premier League has completely lost touch.

We get into Chelsea vs Villa, Man United vs Newcastle, Arsenal’s title nerves, Wolves’ grim reality, VAR chaos, and why some managers have finally had enough of the officiating circus.

Plus — after festive excess, Charlie admits it’s time for a reset. A New Year fitness challenge is coming, and we’ll be tracking it episode by episode.

Strong opinions. Proper football chat. And a Boxing Day rant that needed saying.

It’s the festive build-up and the Premier League served up pure chaos.

Charlie Austin and Peter Redding react to a bonkers weekend — starting with the mad Chelsea vs Newcastle “game of two halves”… before the conversation turns into our biggest VAR/PGMOL breakdown yet.

We also launch Charlie’s Card — our new predictions game where you go head-to-head with Charlie for bragging rights (and a place on the pod). And guess what? Charlie finished 2nd… but a Dubai-based Liverpool fan nicked the top spot.
