New series. Eight years deep. Same nonsense. We’re kicking things off with a belter… Pascal Chimbonda and trust us, he delivers. Perhaps the most laid-back man in the world, but my word he’s got some stories. Rocking up at Wigan without speaking a word of English, his time there was eventful on and off the pitch. A brilliant debut season saw him earn a shock call-up to France’s World Cup squad but it all ended in dramatic fashion when he handed in a transfer request in the dressing room straight after the final game of the season. With front-row seats for Zidane’s infamous headbutt, we find out exactly what Wigan’s Pascal Chimbonda says to French legend Zizou after he’s potentially cost him a World Cup winners’ medal. Dubbed Roy Keane’s “worst ever signing”, we dig into what really went wrong between them and along the way hear plenty of stories about being pinned up by Big Dunc, Jimmy Bullard’s antics, and sharing a dressing room with Browny at Doncaster.

Has Novak Micovic become a distraction? The LA Galaxy's 3-1 loss to the Seattle Sounders brought back some of the club's biggest fears. Is there still a set-piece problem when it comes to defense? Can the Galaxy win the big games, match intensity with the best teams, and figure out how to gel as a team before the playoffs start? On today's show, host Josh Guesman breaks down the loss to Seattle in the simplest terms. Were the Galaxy distracted by the Novak Micovic transfer request, and can they regroup with just eight games left in the season? Plus, why does the Julian Araujo transfer from Barcelona to Bournemouth net the Galaxy more money, and why might a defensive rumor not be totally out of left field? Finally, Josh talks about the Galaxy's spending philosophy this season and why it made sense from the team's perspective.
