A recent previous episode was about 'One season wonders', this episode is on 'One season blunders'. On this episode, Gaurav, Karthik and Sivaram talk about players that had some great seasons at first, but ended up having an absolutely terrible season after that. The episode is called 'Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag', a movie with a bunch of good actors and a reputable director, which ended up being a blunder in itself. Hence, an apt name for this episode.
The boys also discuss Bayern Munich and other Bundesliga clubs doing social distancing training (that's training while practicing social distancing) in batches of 5. More importantly, how will Neymar fake a dive now that everyone is 6 feet away from him? Tune in for all this and more.

Okay, so hands have been washed, faces have been covered, and all the three boys are at their respective homes, all recording separately out of the studio for the first time, like responsible members of society, all because the show must go on!
Eventhough not much happened in football over the weekend, there's still a lot to talk about on this episode.
Sivaram, Karthik and Gaurav talk about Benzema being sad when he's not playing the sport, how some footballers have been speaking up and taking precautions amid this COVID-19 scare, the boys' predictions with regards to when the EPL will be back on, Watford playing Lester in Football Manager over the weekend, Southampton reaching out to Norwich, but United taking them up on the offer to play instead, and lots more.
