El Clasico. The most famous rivalry of all time in football. And boy was it a tough watch if you're a Barcelona fan. Unable to make it 5 wins in a row against Real Madrid, a feat last accomplished during the 2008-2009 period, Barcelona lost 2-1 to go 5 points behind Madrid in the La Liga table.
But, this isn't the end of their issues. On this week's episode, we go into the details that led to their loss.
We've been off the air for a few weeks, but have no fear! We're back talking about the potential turning of the tide for Manchester United, how Liverpool can get out of this losing streak (at the time of recording), and some of our key observations from around Europe! Shoutout Haaland and Harry Kane.
The most goals in a La Liga Madrid Derby in decades. The famous "manita". Are Atletico back? Are Real Madrid weaker than we actually thought after remaining undefeated so far this season?
Probably the most entertaining Madrid Derby we've experienced in a decade and so much to unpack this week! Plus, we dive into Rheon's thoughts on the USMNT and some of the recent results in the Premier League.
Well, this week's game of the weekend (Arsenal vs Liverpool) was...a snoozefest? Under 1 xG for each side, no passes into the opposition box for Arsenal, but one magical freekick separated the two sides.
We break down everything (there's not much, don't worry) that happened in this match along with our observations from around the league on deadline day!
The 2025-2026 season is officially upon us! Crazy to think that we've been doing the pod for over 6 years now...
We're introducing a slightly new format this season: a match of the weekend where we go more in depth and a bunch of quick hits and observations from the rest of the weekend's games. First up: Manchester City vs Spurs, a tale as old as time.
What do we even make of Spurs, extremely polarizing season? Well, to get an expert opinion, we got our friend Des to give his thoughts on a season which saw Spurs win their first major trophy in 17 years while also finishing, ironically, 17th in the Premier League.
We go through Des's grades for the team, ex-manager Ange Postecoglou, and his expectations for the team based on this summer's transfer window.
This week on the summer series - Chelsea! Of course, we had to invite our good friend, Peter, onto the pod to get his thoughts on the club's season. From a potential title run up through Christmas, to finishing as Conference League and Club World Cup champions, there were many ups and downs.
We break them all down this week!
On this week's episode of the Summer Series, we're joined by a very special guest - an expert in his own right...Rheon's dad! We talk all things Manchester City, from the lowest of lows that this team hit in the fall to the, well, not quite highest of high's, but something that resembled more of a competitive team by the end of the season. We're just going to ignore the Club World Cup exit...except we're not.
For episode 250, we're kicking of the 2025 summer series reviewing a few of last season's teams that drew a lot of attention for either their growth or decline!
First up on the list, the might Arsenal - defeating Real Madrid, losing to Newcastle in the Carabao Cup, and watching their Premier League season quickly slip away in the second half of the season...there's a lot to discuss with Arsenal. So, we invited our closest Arsenal-supporting friends, Jay and Sebi, to join us for the conversation!
With the summer in full swing, the mood in European football can only be described as...chirpy. No, wait...that's the USMNT.
On this week's episode, we discuss the start of the Club World Cup, the ongoing saga with Christian Pulisic and the USMNT, and some of the latest transfer news!
Well, after years of persistence and a countless amount of money spent, PSG are finally champions of Europe! On this week's episode, we digest and review the absolute hammering of Inter Milan at the hands of the Parisians, who finished Top 6 in England (and why), along with a recap of Serie A!
On this week's episode, we have SO much to digest! From Barcelona winning the La Liga title after a triumphant victory over Real Madrid in the last league Clasico of the season to Spurs (!!!) winning their FIRST European trophy in over 40 years, we break down all of the news from around Europe heading into the final weekend of the Premier League season.
Pray for Rheon. Sunday will be torture for his Chelsea.
Well, what's been an expectation for about 2 months now has finally come to fruition! Liverpool are Champions of England, winning their 20th men's title.
However, we still have a lot to learn about where the rest of the Top 6-7 teams in England will set and even longer of a road ahead for Spain's top two teams, who will face off in El Clasico this weekend.
A wildly entertaining round of quarterfinal ties in the Champions League have led to us really enjoying the football we're watching!
On this week's episode, we dissect Arsenal's thrashing of Real Madrid while countrymen, Barcelona, managed the completely opposite result against Dortmund. We go through all of the details of the first leg of the quarterfinals!
Is it time to panic when it comes to the USMNT's hopes of showing meaningful progress before the 2026 World Cup? Or is this just a blip? We recap the last 2 matches against Panama and Canada during this international break.
If you're an Atletico Madrid fan, we're so sorry for you. We can't even explain how this team finds new ways to lose to Real Madrid, specifically in Europe. We cover this tie in the Ro16, along with a thrilling PSG vs Liverpool tie, and our expectations headed into the quarterfinals.
After watching Liverpool (somehow) defeat PSG at the Parc des Princes this week, it's made us question the idea of who deserves a win. On this week's episode, we recap all the Champions League Round of 16 matches along with our thoughts on who will go through to the quarterfinals next week.
Plus, some updates from the Premier League Top 6 race and the La Liga title race!
Well, as many might have guessed, Manchester City are out of the Champions League and (shocker) Real Madrid have gone through to the Round of 16. This match, along with the other Ro16 results, is what we're talking about this week!
We go over the implications of who could draw who in the next round, the Top 5 race in England, and a very tasty looking La Liga title race as well!
Well, that was unexpected. Arsenal trounced Manchester City this past weekend, proving they are levels better than the team in Blue...or are they really?
On this week's episode, we review this weekend's massive result for both teams. On top of that, Liverpool continue their dominant run (barely), Forest are overperforming at an absurd level, and Everton might not get relegated!
The vibes for the NLD were, in fact, putrid in Elyas's eyes. When was the last time a North London Derby was on a Wednesday? Because we can't remember.
On this week's episode, we discuss that match along with Liverpool and Chelsea's slight dip in form. Notably, Newcastle and Forest have shot up in the power rankings too. Lastly, we wrap up with news around two manager's getting the sack in the last few weeks and talk about the implications of both.
