How did Man City win the Elliot Anderson race?

About this episode

The transfer window is truly up and running as Manchester City have agreed a £116million deal to sign Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest - the most ever paid for a British player.


Adam Leventhal is joined in-studio by Cerys Jones and Tim Spiers to discuss the massive move for the England midfielder. Football correspondent David Ornstein drops in for the latest details on the deal, and Man City writer Sam Lee joins the panel to analyse why the club were so adamant on signing Anderson from Nottingham Forest.


Meanwhile, at the World Cup, Ecuador had its greatest football moment as they qualified for the knockout stages with a 2-1 win over Germany, while Ivory Coast, Australia, the Netherlands, Japan and Sweden joined the USA in booking their place in the next round.


The panel also discuss their breakout player of the tournament so far, plus, there's our daily 'do you know' trivia as well as a profile of our latest Star of Soccer, Iran’s Beiranvand
