Can Manchester United Dent Arsenal’s Title Hopes?

We’re down to the wire now, and Matchday 37 of the Premier League is serving potentially another great weekend of football. Arsenal is gunning down for the title, and on their way is their great rival from Manchester, the Red Devils. But with United playing poor football now, will this be a formality for the Gunners, as they continue putting pressure on Manchester City ahead of City’s game-in-hand against Spurs? But before that, City does have a tricky tie against Fulham that they have to worry about first. As always, our pundits give their thoughts on this weekend’s matches, as well as react to the midweek European games that saw Borussia Dortmund, Real Madrid, Bayer Leverkusen, Atalanta, Olympiakos and Fiorentina making it to the finals of their respective competitions. All these, as well as the preview of the Championship Play-Offs and the maiden weekend of the Malaysian Super League, only on another enticing episode of Just For Kicks!

Tech Talk

Meta’s recent $2 billion acquisition of the Singapore-based Manus AI has signaled a major shift: APAC is now outpacing the West in the race for autonomous agents. As geopolitical tensions rise over tech transfers, Europe is left questioning if its "safety-first" regulations are leaving it behind. We speak with AI expert Clemens Wasner to unpack the fallout of the Meta-Manus deal and what it means for global tech sovereignty. Drawing on his decade of experience in Japan and China, Clemens explores the friction between EU governance and APAC speed, the surprising overlap in robotics and chips, and how localised "Sovereign AI" is reshaping the 2026 economic map.

Malaysia is riding a record-breaking wave of RM144 billion in data centre investments, yet the "job density" remains surprisingly low. We examine the stark reality of building a digital empire when the nation faces a 90% gap in engineering talent and the looming "brain drain" to Singapore. Carlos Garcia Rodriguez joins the show to deconstruct the execution risks of this surge, from the massive strain on power and water grids to the rising costs of "project overheating." We explore whether Malaysia is destined to be a "digital landlord" for global giants or if we can truly move up the value chain by 2026.
