In this episode, we are joined by writer Guillem Balague to discuss Spanish football in the 00’s.

Part 1 of the podcast came out last Monday, so if you missed it... make sure to go back and listen!

Guillem looks back on his big break with Sky Sports in 1997 and tells us what it was like covering some massive stories - like Luís Figo’s move from Barcelona to Real Madrid, the whole Galácticos era, and David Beckham rocking up in Madrid in 2003.

We also find out why Spanish fans whip out those famous white handkerchiefs when they want a manager gone.

Of course, we get into Barcelona, how Pep Guardiola totally changed the game, and the Spain national team’s ridiculous spell of dominance.

And yes, we dive into your messages too - more 00s VAR madness, and the all-important question: did James Beattie really sample an Eminem track before Southampton’s FA Cup final against Arsenal in 2003?
