We can't speak French so we're going to butcher these team names as we jump into the French Football Pyramid. It's the home of Mbappe, Messi and Neymar. Of course, that's all PSG but there are other French teams to talk about, including one of Ben's favorites.

On episode 7 of Football Nerds Anonymous, Ben and Phil do a semi-deep dive into the storied past of the German Football Pyramid. For this complex structure to make sense, we have to give you a lot more backstory, and it's a wild one! Also, we touch on Messi's first (and possibly only) World Cup. Also, Pep Guardiola of Manchester City complaining about post-World Cup scheduling and the Wolves finally play a meaningful game! That's right...league football is back, baby!
