  • And now... The Ultimate Superhero XI

    What makes a hero? After picking their squad of supervillains in the last episode, Musa and Ryan now assemble a squad of footballing superheroes. Players who save some of their most memorable moments for the world's biggest stages, with an ethic that aims to spread all of what we see as good in the game. Just like the last episode, they will also be led by a mastermind and play their games in a ground that suits. After all this, they play out on Emerson.

  • The Ultimate Supervillain XI

    In the first of two related episodes, Musa and Ryan ask themselves the most pressing of questions, and frighten themselves a little in the process. They wonder: if you had to name a team of football’s supervillains, a side of unparalleled skill, strength, strategy and ruthlessness, who would they be? What devilish mastermind would coach a team of such cunning, and which suitably hostile stadium would be their home ground? See what you think of the terrifying squad they have assembled, feel free to suggest your own, and please look out for the sequel: in which Musa and Ryan try to pick the one team of superheroes from football’s universe who could possibly defeat them. Also, they play out this episode with DAF.


    There will be a piece following up this podcast, exclusively via the FotMob app, available on iOS and Android.

  • The greatest league of all time

    Ten days or so into self isolating and social distancing, Musa and Ryan piece together an imaginary league featuring twenty of their favourite sides from throughout history. Before that, they reflect on the news that the Premier League will extend the season indefinitely and what that might involve from a timescale and legal standpoint. They also answer questions on what they would like to see change when football returns, which footballers are the best chefs and which number 10 they would pick at their peak, before playing out Midori Hirano.

  • What if?

    Musa and Ryan look back in time and speculate, what if? Including the huge knock on that would have occurred for a decade if Sergio Agüero hadn’t scored against QPR. What if Yaya Toure had signed for Arsenal after his trial? How much would Yugoslavia have dominated international football if the conflict hadn’t broken out? They discuss all of this, and many more scenarios, before playing out on Anna Domino.
