HNY and welcome to our regular world service highlights show. For our first week back in 2024 we covered Darwin Nunez’s net positive contributions, the poor man’s Todd Boehly (Garry Cook), Wayne Rooney and the golden generation’s hapless coaching careers and what challenges a teenage sports star such as Luke Littler faces after they make their first breakthrough. Plus there was interpro rugby, Newcastle’s woes, XG nonsense Ken’s review of of Captains of the World (2022 World Cup docu) and Arsenal’s need for fresh blood.
