Legendary football journalist Paddy Barclay and football writer Wayne Barton explore the Premier League era, dedicating time to some of the great teams and players, and aiming a forensic microscope over some of the most fascinating stories of the times.

Manchester City make history by becoming the first team to ever win the domestic treble in England; Liverpool become the best-ever runners-up, but have the significant consolation prize of a European Cup. There is continental glory too for Chelsea, whilst the North London clubs Tottenham and Arsenal have a flatter feeling than their achievements might suggest they should.
