  • Episode 98: The Death Star Rolls On

    We've concluded that Manchester City is the Death Star until we're proven otherwise. That conclusion has largely been successful, of course, until we're prove wrong. In other news, Liverpool continue a semi-poor run of form, but showed some signs of a spark in their game against Leipzig. United and Leicester come out on top over the weekend while West Ham slyly move up into fourth, confirming the David Moyes redemption arc. And, of course, Chelsea stutter before their big Champions League clash with Atletico Madrid.

  • Episode 97: The Champions League Returns

    Europe's formidable competition. The jack of all trades. THE Champions League is back this week (finally) to provide some much needed additional narratives with the likes of Sevilla vs Dortmund, Leipzig vs Liverpool, and, of course, Barcelona vs PSG. We go over all the details of each tie and what we're looking forward to most. We also added a quick Q&A portion to the podcast at the end, answering some questions from our listeners!

  • Episode 96: The Death Star Strikes Again!

    It's inevitable isn't it? Manchester City. Domination. It's just what's expected from Pep, but maybe even more impressively, with a squad that is not at the caliber they were at 2 years ago. Meanwhile, we have to talk about what this result means for Liverpool, how poor the keepers in the United vs Everton match were, and a round up of the rest of the Premier League. Oh yeah, and Chelsea won.

  • Episode 95: Dutchification

    Yep. Dutchification. It's a word. We didn't make it up. But Ronald Koeman may be making up things as he goes at Barcelona. Is Griezmann also quietly having a great season? Meanwhile, Atletico continue on a ridiculous run of form, but actually showed signs of weakness this past weekend. We talk a little Real Madrid as well and what they need to focus on between now and the end of the season.

  • Episode 94: A Look at Spurs vs Chelsea

    This week in the Premier League, we invited our old friend Desmond, an unfortunate Spurs fan, back on the podcast to talk about the upcoming Spurs vs Chelsea clash this week. Afterwards, we discuss the Arsenal vs United snooze fest, Leicester and Everton's poor results, and Rheon's pick for Premier League player of the year.

  • Episode 93: Real Madrid Have an Unfixable Problem

    While Atletico continue to storm to the La Liga title, we took some time to not just focus on the league leaders, but their runners-up and some of their *potentially* unfixable problems if they don't make smart sporting decisions soon. Of course, we also review Barcelona's recent positive run of form and whether letting Luis Suarez go may have actually been a good idea.

  • Episode 92: Lampard is OUT

    Well, we can't say this wasn't coming, but it's still sad to see. Frank Lampard is out as Chelsea manager after a very poor run of games. But, that's not the only thing we cover this week. An entertaining Manchester United vs Liverpool match up, a look ahead at a few big upcoming fixtures in England, and a little Serie A news all coming your way!

  • Episode 91: Man City is the Death Star

    This past (long) weekend saw a snoozefest in the North West Derby, Manchester City return to their consistent strength of years past, Arsenal and Spurs step into form, and Chelsea continue to stumble. Where does this weekend leave the Top 3 teams? Is Lampard on his way out at Chelsea? Which of Spurs or Arsenal have a better chance of finishing Top 6? All that and more on this week's Premier League podcast.

  • Episode 90: Bullish on Atleti, Bearish on Everyone Else

    Atleti just keep winning. There's really no way to beat around the bush. So, with more than 50% of La Liga finished, could we see them comfortably win the league? Will Barcelona or Real put their foot on the gas and finally challenge? Where do Sevilla, Real Sociedad, and Villareal sit now? All that and more is answered in this week's La Liga podcast!
