In this episode of Business in Football, Joe and Josh start with some weekly topics that include the sacking of Frank Lampard and hiring of Thomas Tuchel in West London, Josh's mighty Sheffield United topping Manchester United and if that means City are sure to win the title, and some minor transfer news.

Who exactly is Mike Ashley and how has he managed to turn the club into what it is, and why did the Saudi takeover not go through?
