On this edition of Treble Radio, we discuss some Twitter listener opinions! We also go in depth as Treble Radio previews FA Cup and reviews Manchester Derby, which makes Laura very happy. Arslan rants about Raheem Sterling, but praises Simon Mignolet? Ashley Young is a good player? What has happened to Christian Eriksen? Which Spurs players would start on another top four team? Will City fall further and finish 5th?
It was an odd weekend for the Premier League, and we’ve reviewed the best of it.
In fact, we were having so much fun we decided to make this week a mega-podcast. In the second half of the show we preview the FA Cup semi-finals this weekend as Arsenal take on Reading, and Liverpool take on Aston Villa. Will Wenger and Rodgers rotate their squads or will they start their best lineups? Will Gerrard feature for Liverpool? Find out what we think and tune in to catch our predictions.

Born in Omaha, Nebraska, Laura was trained from birth to be a Nebraska Cornhusker Football fan. Unlike most Huskers, her dad played soccer and introduced her to that sport as well, which understandably stole her heart. Laura’s love for the Spice Girls and Harry Potter carried her love for soccer across the Atlantic to a team not unlike her Huskers, Manchester United. They were once great and believe they can be again, but it hasn’t really happened yet. Laura is also a fan of the MLS team Sporting Kansas City in the typical fashion of a Nebraskan: loving a KC team due to lack of anything at all in the state of Nebraska.
Eric Walcott is a Legislative Assistant in the Michigan House of Representatives by day, and a soccer fan 24/7. He’s played soccer his whole life and now covers MLS, Portland Timbers, and Arsenal for LWOS. Eric helped start the supporters group Sons of Ransom for NPSL club Lansing United because there’s nothing quite like standing in the crowd and supporting your local team every weekend. 4th place might not be a trophy, but THE FA CUP SURELY IS!
Treble Radio host, Arslan Siddiqui, is a Canadian who does not speak many languages, but he has definitely specialized in the language of the beautiful game. When his grasp of the language isn’t strong enough, he (tries) to substitute it with comedy. He is a Liverpool fan who started the ‘Anfield Alive’ column on Last Word On Sports, where he provides commentary and opinion on everything Liverpool and Premier League related. A university student and a young adult, he promises to provide entertainment and (a little bit of) knowledge!
