On The Debate Live this week: Top names discuss big stories on Sky Sports Premier League

Sky Sports kicks off the new Premier League season with a brand new nightly football debate show.

The Debate - live made its debut last week on Sky Sports Premier League when Ian Wright, Alan Pardew, Phil Neville and Craig Bellamy made their debuts.

Here's what you can look forward to this week…

On Monday night, Thierry Henry and Alan Smith will be on the show to dissect all of the major talking points from what has been a thrilling opening weekend to the new Premier League season.

Meanwhile, former Chelsea and Republic of Ireland international captain Andy Townsend was joined in the studio by ex-Arsenal and England striker Wright on Tuesday.

Wednesday night sees Bellamy team up with West Ham United vice-chairman Karren Brady, while there is a familiar face around The Debate table on Thursday with Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson on the show with former Middlesbrough and Fulham and Australia goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer.

And on Friday, former Crystal Palace owner Simon Jordan joins Charlie Nicholas with Jeff Stelling in the presenter's chair.
