Is a draw in Tbilisi - thanks to a 92nd minute equaliser - enough to rid Scotland of their dreaded curse? Marcus, Pete, Jim and Vish call for any curse experts to help them solve that mystery.
They also speculate whether Gareth Southgate is cooking up any experiments in his lab ahead of England vs Malta and debate which of today’s Ramblers have the cutest dad… It’s The Preview Show!

Marcus, Luke and Vish pull the curtain down on the season, as the Baron Samedi of European football won their 15th Big One™. We celebrate some spectacular performances from the likes of Vinicius Jr and Lenny Kravitz, and wonder if Dortmund probably should’ve won it.
Elsewhere, the Dutch FA have proposed a new footballing rule book and are looking to legalise it, Emperor Mourinho’s arrival in Turkey divides the studio and England’s summer of glory begins TONIGHT!

The Empire Strikes Back (again)

Ahead of the Champions League’s impending changes, Marcus, Jim and Andy look back over some of their favourite moments from this era of the competition - from peak Jose Mourinho shithousing to some of the defining teams and managers synonymous with that magical anthem.
Plus, we wonder which English players could benefit from a move abroad and we wrestle with a truly baffling hypothetical dilemma standing between England and Euros glory.

Mailbag: Will we miss this version of the Champions League?

We’re on the eve of the Champions League final! Marcus, Luke, Jim and Andy are getting in the mood by trying to work out what medicine Andriy Lunin is using to recover from the illness that is keeping him out of the final.
Elsewhere, Luke and Andy show genuine fear at the prospect of José Mourinho managing in Turkey and we hear about an amateur side that won 43-1 on the final day of the season to win the title. Remarkable…

The Preview Show: Lunin Tunes

With just a couple of weeks until the Euros kicks off, we’re pretty sure about how Gaz’s Gang will line up in their opening game against Serbia - but how should he use his substitutes? And does Gareth Southgate have a track record of failing to properly implement changes from the bench?
Elsewhere, Ashley Young provides the Take Thermometer with its spiciest offering so far and we wonder if Gareth will bring back the waistcoat as a nostalgia play.

Lions Watch: Does Gareth Southgate use his substitutes enough?

Enzo Maresca looks set to be the new Chelsea manager as he is rumoured to have agreed a potential six-year contract with the club. Don’t you dare suggest that Chelsea won’t honour all six years of that contract!
Today, Marcus, Andy, Vish and Pete explain why they think Maresca is perfect for the Chelsea role and why Leicester should hire Jamie Vardy as player manager. Plus, they question whether fans are getting value for money after Premier League clubs announce they are increasing the price of season tickets for next season.
