• Red Ball v White Noise: Should cricket ditch The Hundred?

  England had us on the edge of our seats in one of the greatest Test Series ever but less than 24 hours later the bright lights, colourful kits and loud music of The Hundred began. Mark is joined by former England cricketer David 'Bumble' Lloyd and The Guardian's Chief Sports Writer, Barney Ronay, to discuss it all: Is it really true that young people only like the fast, flashy stuff? Is cricket shooting itself and its players in the foot by having too many formats? Are The Hundred's days numbered? Plus, who's making David's Ashes team? And stick around to the end of the episode for a flavour of our weekend edition - featuring an exclusive interview with Chris Powell, who left crisis club Sheffield Wednesday earlier this week.📩 Got a question?

• Could Alexander Isak to Liverpool be the LAST transfer saga?

  It's the biggest transfer saga of the summer - will Alexander Isak, who led Newcastle to the Champions League and ended a 70-year domestic trophy drought, be snapped up by Premier League winners Liverpool? The Athletic's George Caulkin joins Mark to talk about the British-record fee, and a 'sliding doors' moment for the Saudi-backed project on Tyneside.And behind the scenes is the whole transfer system as we know it unravelling? FIFA is facing a multi-billion pound class action lawsuit for players' lost income because of transfer rules, in the wake of last summer's 'Diarra ruling'. To explain, we're joined by sports lawyer, Dolf Segaar, a board member for the 'Justice for Players' Foundation, which could soon take FIFA to court.Watch our full episodes on YouTube: @sportsagentspodFollow us on...TikTok: @thesportsagents Instagram: @thesportsagents X: @sportsagentspodGot a question for us?
