The EPL Talk Podcast is the only Premiership interview show on the Internet. Every week we feature intelligent interviews with different guests that include commentators, players, authors and legends from the English Premier League.

So much to discuss on this pod. Hiring and firing in the league. Natural or should we be shocked? Two managers who barely fulfil their role get cut from the team. Kenny Daglish and Alex McLeish. The Scottish population in the league certainly took a battering this season.

Uncle Roy made his squad selection, mostly EPL players. Does that bother you? Who isn't happy with Downing? Everyone…well, apart from Downing. Do you feel bad for him? Just because the players he has supplied have let him down, should he be made a figure or fury?

Elsewhere there is a Champions League final to be had. Chelsea face Bayern in Germany, but who will play? Is it really worth the trip? Will Torres start? Saturday, join us! On Twitter and EPLTalk.com. Twitter conversation:

Manchester City win the title. Beating out Manchester United on goal difference. Sir Alex was gracious in defeat which Roberto seemed to be in dreamland. Manchester celebrates as neutrals ponder who to hate next season…either way City have caused a new kind of upset. The likely upset. And in such fashion.

To contrast their emotion: Bolton are relegated after making themselves so consistent in the league. Owen Coyle must be wondering what he did so wrong. Joey Barton won't sympathise, he doesn't sound capable, though maybe that is what makes it so frustrating: we know he knows better.

Overall, a wonderful season in the league. Stories from all sides of the table. As we look back, I hope you look forward. Plenty more to come from EPL Talk this season.

It doesn't get much more clear cut than the Premier League table at the end of the season. But that doesn't tell half the story. Let us know yours. Join our Twitter conversation:

It's the final day of the season, come Sunday. So get to it! The pod certainly does, we look up and down the league to see who will end up where at the end of the season. It really isn't that far away.

With the top far from decided, we look at the mentality of both sides. It is City vs. United. Sir Alex vs. Roberto. The people just behind them as far from safe in their position either. But more disappointing, the bottom of the table looks like it's pretty much decided. Damn. So it's between Bolton and QPR.

Who wins the league? Who was your prediction at the beginning of the season? Who goes down? Let us know. Join our Twitter conversation:

A weekend of literal and narrative cup finals for north and south. Though it was interesting to see where they took place. Liverpool visited London whilst United hosted and City went to "The Shore". All results lead to dejection and jubilance. Overall, London comes away as the happier City. So, what about the clubs left with defeat to ponder.

The pod takes a look at how defeat can shape a team and sum up a season so well. Section One focuses on Manchester whilst Two follows the agitation and adulation of a Wembley final. Both times, Roberto was the happier man both times. Scots left to consider the less obvious misgivings.

And of course there was relegation to consider. Are Aston Villa above the fight now? Did Cisse's heroics do it for QPR? It all builds up to a great final weekend. Join the Twitter conversation:

Don't let the title deceive you (literally Fergie), this podcast might include FA Cup content, but that doesn't stop us from welcoming Jamie Whitehead onto the pod for 3for3. The pod talk Italy, USA, England and journalistic values.

Manchester is obviously still suffering from the fallout, the podcast discuss that and the potential of all other sides to make the top four, in review.

With Chelsea facing Liverpool this weekend, there is plenty to look forward to, though the rivalry now is a little different. Do you think it's still as fiery?Let us know on Twitter, join the conversation:

It's a Manchester Special. Need was say more?

The pod looks through the wreckage and what-the-heckage of tonight's match. Mancini and his mind-games vs. Sir Alex and his team in flames. Or is it so bad?

Without either Manchester side in the mix this weekend we see a peak in the exciting football as teams hone their side and make a push to be the most impressive in the league. Is it a question of too little, too late? The pod look at the top four credentials of all runners.

Excellent goals were on the menu as hat-tricks from Suarez and Torres spun a season which could have been so disappointing into a success, it took time but with goals of this quality it was worth the wait, right?

Of course the Manchester Derby is the pinnacle of the EPL season. Section three is dedicated to previewing and reviewing the season in Manchester. Let us know your predictions and tactical thoughts on Twitter:

The pod is light this week. After the special edition, it is only right that we keep the happy note going. To summarise the thoughts and feelings around the EPL in mid-week are four people from different places in the world.

Chelsea get section one as we look forward to the Champions League Final in Munich. Are Chelsea really under-dogs after bringing Barcelona to their knees? Munich weren't as strong and are far from title-winners but show the determination and calculation to win a cup. Both Chelsea and Munich have scores to settle in this competition, but will that be played out in this tie?

In "The News" Morgan introduces the draft to the podcast. Who would you draft from the EPL? Where would they play if they were gonna be NFL players? Could any EPL players cross-over to a US sport?

Then there are previews for the weekend? Will the midlands get sucked into the relegation battle or will it remain strictly an exclusive competition for the doomed few? Let us know:

What a night, late April back in 2012. What a finish, what a night. Chelsea triumph as Barcelona stumble. To pick over the bones of this 'instant-classic': the pod.

In an Emergency podcast we go to Spain and then Birmingham. Not literally. Join us on an audible journey as Chelsea head to Munich! The up and down of it: Chelsea are through to the Champions League Final 2012.

What did you think of the game? Did Chelsea deserve to win? Did Barca deserve to lose? Join the conversation and add your thoughts to the group over Twitter. We will include your ideas and opinions on our Thursday Preview Show:

How do you focus? When it's this hot you just stumble around, so the pod follows the trend and staggers between Manchester and London in an attempt to cover all. So we split it up into bite size pieces.

Manchester is United as a City by their title hopes, but divided when it comes to where the trophy will finish up. As United draw, City win and suddenly the Etihad has never looked so enticing. Next Monday there will be a raw of approval from both sets of fans as blue and red take to the pitch.

The second section is full of mediocrity and sadness, sugar-coated with Newcastle United and their lovely form. Kristan evaluates their 'Top 4' chances and The Gaffer looks into the lower half of the table.

Chelsea is section 3, how could we make it anything else? We assess their Arsenal clash and how they will do in Europe. Barcelona are formidable on paper and about as resilient as paper on current form. But their wider quality and pedigree for winning makes them outstanding favourites for this tie. Can Chelsea turn the tables and hark back to a dominant era in recent history? Join the Twitter conversation:
