Rog and Rory return in our pod series exploring the history of European football's biggest ties. First up, Rory recounts his experience at the Bernabéu last week to watch Benzema's incredible hat trick (2:49). The main story today is Juventus, their tradition at the pinnacle of Italy, the Calciopoli scandal, and the abandonment of long term strategy that has led to their recent decline (8:38). Then, a quick look at the UK's sanctions on Roman Abramovich and how it will change ownership trends in football (27:35), and finally over to the Europa League to examine La Liga overachievers Real Betis and their incredible life philosophy (33:45).

Jimbo welcomes James Horncastle, Julien Laurens and Alvaro Romeo back into the pod ahead of another huge midweek of competition. Atletico face Man United in the Champions League after a good weekend win but a pretty wretched 2 months. Lille travel to Stamford Bridge with Jonathan David looking to impress some potential suitors. And Dusan Vlahovic makes his Champions League debut for Juve at Villarreal. Napoli host Barcelona in the Europa League after a handsome win at Valencia where Aubameyang and “best in the world” Pedri shine. But can Ferran Torres live up to his superstar signing status? Dortmund lose to Rangers and then hammer Monchengladbach 6-0. Christoph Biermann struggles to get his head around this team. PSG are defeated at Nantes as efforts to keep Kylian Mbappe intensify.

For the AZ Soccer Sharps, a disappointing Matchweek 27 show masked what was actually a brilliant midweek Champions League show.

- SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST: http://cornerofthegalaxy.com/subscribe/ - COG LA GALAXY DISCORD: https://discord.gg/drr9HFZY2P - COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- Rumors are buzzing, and the LA Galaxy seem to be involved in at least two of them. So when are Douglas Costa and Cristian Pavon headed to Los Angeles? Let's press pause on that duo... at least for a bit longer. On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter want to get you all the latest Galaxy news. And surprisingly, there's a lot to digest. Josh and Kevin will start by updating you on the Galaxy's preseason roster and why there's one very interesting name. Who is trailing with the club? And what does a lack of international spots mean for some players? And the whole reason the Galaxy released their roster was that they played a closed-door preseason game on Saturday and came away victorious. Did Greg Vanney end up playing some defense? And why does the preseason never matter until it does? But the guys who did get on the scoreboard for the Galaxy certainly are worth paying attention to this Saturday when the Galaxy play their first preseason game that is open to the public. However, the bulk of the show will be focused on the probable signing of Douglas Costa (he seems to be coming) and the possible reacquisition of Cristian Pavon. Come February, could we see two game-changers playing together at Dignity Health Sports Park? Would the Galaxy have to wait until the summertime? Plus, the guys will go over each deal and tell you why some risky business decisions are being made. Can the Galaxy get the most out of Costa? There's no denying there's talent there, but will he be able to regain form he had when he played for the likes of Juventus and Bayern? We've got a very packed show filled with opinion, new information, and a lot of speculation heading into a very condensed off-season. Let's get it started!

Rog is joined by USMNT and Juventus' magical midfielder Weston MckKennie to discuss the roots of Weston's love for the game, from discovering the game in Germany to scoring goals for club and country, and how he has grown through a career of obstacles.

After taking a bath on their Official Plays for Matchweek 23, the AZ Soccer Sharps, Devin and Jordan, are looking for a strong bounce-back in Matchweek 24.

Jimbo and the Euro crew of James Horncastle, Julien Laurens and Alvaro Romeo dissect the weekend action on the continent. Real Madrid win the Spanish Super Cup in Saudi Arabia with Ancelotti and Modric remaining evergreen. But the real headlines are made back home in the Copa Del Rey with the Betis derby suspended and completed 24 hours later behind closed doors after a missile strikes Joan Jordan. Bordeaux suspend Laurent Koscielny and sink to second bottom of Ligue 1 after a 6-0 defeat to Rennes. In Italy, Nani debuts for Venezia, Paulo Dybala might be on the way out of Juventus and the panel debate whether Ciro Immobile is any good or not. And Christoph Biermann gives us the latest from the Bundesliga where Erling Haaland raises questions about his future and Union finally give Berlin a team to be proud of. RUNNING ORDER: • PART 1: Moment of the weekend (03m 00s) • PART 2: Real win the Super Cup and madness in the Seville derby (06m 30s) • PART 3: The Bundesliga bulletin with Christoph Biermann (20m 00s) • PART 4: Nani, Dybala and how good is Immobile?

Musa and Ryan round up a few of the midweek games before opening up the mailbag! There’s chat about Real Madrid’s extra-time win over Barcelona in the Supercopa de España semifinal (04:17), Chelsea seeing off Spurs in the Carabao Cup and wins for West Ham and Southampton in the Premier League (09:17). Next up, it’s onto Inter beating Juventus in the Supercoppa Italiana (11:57), the wild goings on in Mali’s win over Tunisia and the close games in AFCON so far (15:18), some January transfer-window happenings, including one signing they’d each like to see and their favorite January signings of all time (26:55). Finally, they discuss which Winter Olympics events they’ll be watching (37:46) and whether the 'Stadio' footballing opinions are always as harmonious as they seem … (39:54).

Why would it be different? And what is the club doing in Brazil? On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter want to update you on what could be another slow week for the club. But with a Saturday reporting date, are things about to heat up? Or is the calmness telling? Perhaps MLS is just in a position it's never been in before with a winter World Cup later this year? Josh and Kevin will start by explaining some of the dynamics behind a World Cup that is actually lining up in the league's favor. Does that mean some big moves could take place in the lead-up to the biggest sporting event in the world? And is MLS primed to capitalize? The guys will then debate the pros and cons of the MLS SuperDraft on Tuesday and talk about the Galaxy's history of draft picks. Are the Galaxy just really bad at this? Do they value the college development path at all? or is the SuperDraft a thing of the past? There are a lot of opinions, and we're sure you have your own. Next, the guys talk about the "gamble" the Galaxy made on Raheem Edwards and why a depth piece is garnering so much attention and a three-year contract. Does Vanney know something the rest of us don't on Edwards? And who much are the Galaxy willing to risk on Kelvin Leerdam and Raheem Edwards? Then the guys want to dive into two fascinating rumors. But only one of them has any smoke behind it, and both seem to be a gamble. Is Juventus' Douglas Costa leaving a second division team in Brazil to join the Galaxy? And are the Galaxy persuing one of the top attacking midfielders in Ligue 1 in Teji Savanier? Suffer through our horrible pronunciations and questionable logic, as we talk about Cristian Pavon being the "easy" choice and why Costa might be a motivational issue but relatively cheap. And would Savanier be a severe departure from who the Galaxy usually target? Could we call them ambitious? We've got a great show lined up for you, and we're glad you're joining us in the lead-up to the Galaxy's start of the preseason!

The Totally Football Show European Edition returns for 2022 with Jimbo, James Horncastle, Julien Laurens and Alvaro Romeo. No doubting the game of the weekend across the continent as Juventus come from 3-1 down to beat Roma’s side packed full of Englishmen. Remember when Mourinho sides used to be able to defend? In Spain, Real Madrid’s team of 10 certain starters get back to winning ways. But the social media statements of Valencia and Real Betis criticising referees cast a shadow over La Liga. Bayern lose at home to Monchengladbach to mark the return of the Bundesliga – the league where no games get postponed. Monaco are under new management in France while PSG continue to make Jules sigh. Plus Spanish Super Cup, more misery for Shevchenko at Genoa and how Sassuolo will continue to solve Italy’s problems.

A rundown of the action from the weekend with Vince, Watke and Belz. McKennie plays a key role in a huge win for Juventus, Pepi debuts for Augsburg, Dest's camp signals he wants to stay in Barcelona, and lots of other things to discuss.

Musa and Ryan begin with Serie A this week, as Roma and Juventus delivered chaos (4:45), Atalanta put six past Udinese, and Toronto FC announced the signing of Lorenzo Insigne at the end of the season (15:49). The Bundesliga made its return, with Gladbach’s win at Bayern being capitalized on by Dortmund, who came from behind to win in Frankfurt (19:03). There’s a quick round-up of La Liga (25:46) and the WSL, plus wholesome scenes in Portugal. Finally, with Ed Woodward confirmed to stand down as Manchester United chief executive at the end of this month, to be replaced by Richard Arnold, the guys ask: Will it be enough to change things at Old Trafford (33:07)?

Last week the public prosecutor's office in Turin issued a warrant to search the premises of Juventus Football Club as part of an on going investigation into false accounting and there is some speculation that Juventus could even be demoted to Serie B. Is the case that strong and what have they done wrong? Suj and James look into some of the transfers under the microscope not just at Juventus, but also at other clubs, including one ridiculous exchange of players case that doesn't add up and we discuss how clubs are using amortisation in accounting to pass FFP requirements. Coming Up on Wednesday on Planet FPL - Planet SkyFF s3 ep18, discussing all the latest in Sky Fantasy Football. ____________________________________________ Want to become a member of our FPL community?
