Liam returns to form a usual lineup this week on the Footb'OL English Podcast as the lads discuss another defeat for OL against struggling Strasbourg including big moments for Toko Ekambi. On a more serious note, the lads dissect the club's gross negligence and management of former OL feminin player Sara Björk Gunnarsdóttir's pregnancy and the image this creates for the club's unpopular management with Vincent Ponsot the main culprit.
