We. Are. Back! After a hectic Christmas period Ruairi and Adam are back to take you through the return of Serie A & the 3rd round of the F.A Cup.

To start off we say arrivederci to some icons of the game that left us across the festive period, we reflect on careers and lives lived to the fullest from Gianluca Vialli, Pele and Sinisa, we discuss our memories and what these people meant to so many people.

We then turn our attentions to Serie A and it was all about the late drama, 3 2-2s with last minute equalisers! What was the point in Inter beating Napoli now? What did we learn about both Milan and Roma? And was it Karmic justice for Lazio fans after another one of those stories coming out of their fanbase? Then we look towards the scudetto race, with Napoli vs Juve on the horizon what did this weekend tell us about both teams and what can we expect from the game?

Finally we get to talk about our favourite competition, the F.A Cup, it's 3rd round time and there were plenty of shocks, Owls stunning Magpies! Stevenage stunning Emery and Chelsea disgracing themselves (ok maybe that wasn't a surprise) there was plenty of drama for us to pick through.

Don't forget to follow us on Twitter @italiananglopod on Instagram @angloitalianpod and give Ruairi a follow on his new account @RuairiSC_TAIP and of course enjoy the show!
