The Overlap

Yes, intentionality is a funny word, but it's relevant to this weekend's set of matches where we saw red cards flying, goals that may or may not have been goals, and the intervention of VAR in ways that can only be described as "chaotic". From Chelsea vs Spurs, Arsenal vs Newcastle, an update on the rest of the fixtures around England, and a vibe check in Spain, we've got it all this week coming up before the international break!

Elyas and Rheon dive into this weekend's La Liga & Premier League action, including the highly anticipated Manchester Derby, on the latest episode of the pod. They'll discuss the importance of the Clasico, break down Jude Bellingham's weird performance, provide a roundup of games across England, and give their predictions for the upcoming week of action.

On this week's episode, we cover all of the happenings in the Premier League including the big game from the weekend: Chelsea vs Arsenal! Rheon comes prepped with all kinds of stats, Spurs continue to impress, and United are just...fine. Towards the end, we do a brief preview of El Clasico this weekend, with much more to come from Spain next week!

We're not sure where Rheon comes up with these words, but we're gonna roll with it anyway. This week, we've got another international break, so no club football. BUT, we did get a chance to see the USMNT play Germany over the weekend LIVE. We give our reactions from that game along with the big win against Ghana in Nashville. Plus, what are our expectations of this team headed into next year's Copa America (which they should qualify for)? Find out on this week's episode!

Disclaimer: Rheon does not know how to work technology or look after cats in the first 30 seconds.

On this week's episode, we're going over the big game in England (and Europe, honestly) with Arsenal's narrow victory over City! We also discuss who the best player currently in the Premier League might be, which teams are on the up and deserve some due praise, and maybe (just, maybe) a little roast of PSG. Later on, we get to discussing Girona's climb to top of the table in La Liga along with Take Kubo and Real Sociedad's historic run!

*Apologies for the lower audio quality this week, Elyas didn't bring his mic on his travels*

On this week's episode, we go over the biggest stories across England and Spain - at a rapid fire pace! From VAR's decision in the Spurs v Liverpool match, previewing City vs Arsenal, and giving our flowers to Aston Villa and Luton. The La Liga portion of the pod got cut a little short, so we'll go over those details more next week. BUT, we still had a chance to review the Madrid Derby!

During this September's international break, we cover the state of affairs across the Premier League up until this (relatively) pre-mature point. Featuring a review of where the top teams sit, along with an update on the Rubiales scandal, and some praise for the youngsters in Spanish football!

This topic deserves its own podcast. In this shortened episode, Elyas reviews the details of what's occurred with the controversy in Spain around the Spanish Federation President, the political context behind it, and we deservedly cover Spain's victory over England to become World Champions. We also briefly cover the hype around Lamine (Lionel) Yamal.

There were so many red cards handed out over the last two matchdays that we almost lost track. Also, Rheon is a cat dad now. Also also, Elyas is sleepy from jetlag (boohoo!). This week though, we cover everything major that happened in the Premier League from the red cards, to unexpected results, and we argue over whether Everton will get relegated (spoiler: they will).

Apparently, Rheon thinks we're all plants. Listen to find out why. BUT, in all seriousness, we go over the game of the weekend in England (Chelsea vs Liverpool) as well as a final recap of our season preview for the other teams we didn't get to last week. We wrap up with a beautiful ode to whatever that Getafe vs Barcelona "game" was.
