Player Loyalty

John Oliver, the biggest friend of the pod and host of Last Week Tonight, returns for his annual holiday visit to the Men in Blazers podcast, and this time, John sits down with Rog to discuss Liverpool's up and down season, including how he still hasn't gotten over the pain of Jurgen Klopp's departure, why he wants Mo Salah to be a Liverpool player forever, and how the saga of Trent Alexander-Arnold's departure to Real Madrid explains why Liverpool football is a religious experience. Plus, John shares what his expectations are for England in the 2026 World Cup, and why the only thing that can compete with the joy of football is a French jewelry heist.
