Host Ian Irving is joined by The Athletic's Dominic Fifield and Laurie Whitwell to reflect on the 2002 World Cup in South Korea & Japan, twenty years on this week... Uri Geller's bizarre effort to repair Beckham's broken metatarsal on live TV, Rivaldo's histrionics, Rustu's war-paint, South-Korean spirit, Roy Keane's civil war and whether or not Ronaldinho actually meant to catch Seaman out from that far away. Plus, Mr Football Cliches, Adam Hurrey's own personal Top 5 moments, what happened when George Caulkin got caught in a lift with R9, if James Horncastle (and the rest of Italy) has finally forgiven referee Byron Moreno and more!

It’s Jimbo. It’s James Horncastle. It’s Dom Fifield. It’s Tom Williams. It’s the Totally Football Show. It’s transfers, transfers, transfers as rumours start to become fact. Gareth Bale is heading to Los Angeles FC, but is a move to the MLS the best preparation for his World Cup with Wales? Gossip is still all around though and some salacious talk links Cristiano Ronaldo to both Roma and Chelsea. Will it be either, or neither? On This Day were two of England’s more recent international humiliations, and Dom Fifield was at both. James Horncastle tells us all about his favourite World Cup, USA 94. And we discuss Neymar’s film career… Plus Carlos Tevez is a manager, Todd Boehly is giving it a go as a Sporting Director and Phil Jagielka once put a hell of a shift in as a goalkeeper.

The lads talk through the Otavio to Liverpool rumours and discuss whether he would be a good signing for the club, how he would fit in and what impact it would have to Oxlade-Chamberlain's chances of making the squad and for the Jude Bellingham reported interest!
