Jimbo, Tom Williams, Daniel Storey and Benji Lanyado convene to converse about another pulsating Premier League weekend. Newcastle and Man City contest a six-goal thriller as we address whether the Magpies are for real. Jesse Marsch’s Leeds appear to be the real deal as Aaronson tortures the Blues, with Chelsea needing some Wesley Fofana recovery pace. Good day for Leeds, bad day for Kalvin Phillips.

It’s the Euro crew of Jimbo, James Horncastle, Raphael Honigstein, Julien Laurens and Alvaro Romeo in full effect. Drama in Paris as despite PSG’s rip-roaring start to the season, Kylian Mbappe falls out with Neymar over penalty duties and literally stops playing at one point. Lots for Luis Campos to sort out. In the Bundesliga, there’s a first goal for Dortmund’s Jamie Bynoe-Gittens. But it’s Bayern youngster Jamal Musiala who Lothar Matthaus thinks could be the best player in the world. Inter’s difficult summer doesn’t prevent them from securing a last-gasp victory at Lecce on the opening day of the Serie A season. And as La Liga returns, it’s not just Barcelona who are struggling to register players.

The panel reflect on some of the true Brazilian greats of the last 25 years, discuss why great entertainers like Ronaldinho and Neymar never signed for a Premier League club and if the 'Joga Bonito' spirit clashes with modern day Premier League tactical systems. Plus, ahead of the winter World Cup, who has taken the biggest risk by moving to Arsenal, Spurs and Barcelona respectively and what chance do Tite's Selecao have in Qatar this winter?

Jimbo’s back and welcomes James Horncastle, Matt Davies-Adams and Sasha Goryunov into a baking hot pod. Euro 2022 enters the quarter-final stage with England taking on Spain at the Amex on Wednesday. Are the Spanish too twee to pose the Lionesses any big problems? In the transfer market, Chelsea bring in gentle giant and model pro Kalidou Koulibaly from Napoli. But do they risk losing more academy prospects in the process? Laurie Whitwell joins us from Australia where Erik ten Hag’s Man United keep winning and they’ve just added leftie Lisandro Martinez. Is it time to start to taking United seriously again? Barca secure the signing of Lewandowski. But is it a depressing state of affairs for European football as Barca mortgage their future? We look back at Sasha’s favourite World Cup – Spain 82. The tournament of Northern Ireland, Brazil’s loss of innocence and Soviet Union’s 3 managers. Plus Monza, the new Top Gun movie and how Dennis Wise is getting up to something very different today than he was 20 years ago RUNNING ORDER: • PART 1: England v Spain preview (03.30) • PART 2a: Koulibaly signs for Chelsea (12.00) • PART 2b: Dybala signs for Roma (19.00) • PART 2c: Spence, Perisic and Moura – Conte’s wing-backs (26.00) • PART 3a: Man Utd on tour with Laurie Whitwell (33.00) • PART 3b: Broke Barca continue to do business (43.00) • PART 4: Sasha’s favourite World Cup – Spain 82 (53.00) SIGN UP TO THE ATHLETIC TODAY FOR £1 A MONTH FOR THE FIRST 6 MONTHS • theathletic.com/totally Hosted on Acast.

Join Jimbo, Flo Lloyd Hughes, Daniel Storey, and Raf Honigstein for a look back at some sizzling transfer stories. A look ahead to a summer scorcher in England. And a trip down memory lane to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil... not sure why it's Raf's favourite... In the week where Salah stays put and Ronaldo wants out we bring the latest from the red sides of the North West. Ask Raf about the big red side of Germany and whether Bayern will still include Robert Lewandowski in their line up next season - and if not where will? We get the lowdown on the lionesses' bid to "bring it home" and who is standing in their way. Plus Joey D'Urso joins to talk crypto, and there's memories of Gazza's tears and Brazil 1-7 Germany.

It's Jimbo joined by Charlie Eccleshare, Duncan Alexander, and all the way from Brazil, Tim Vickery! And it's a Brazilian flair to the show today as we discuss favourite Brazilian footballers, club swapping Brazilian players (see Raphinha, Gabriel Jesus, Richarlison), and we talk all about the 1950 World Cup which was hosted in, that's right, Brazil - but devastatingly, not won by them. Spoilers! It's not all about the South American continent though, we have some Adebayor nostalgia as The Athletic's Premier League Golden Games reaches number 34. We talk Alfie Devine and the England U19s, and On This Day there was a rather famous commentator's curse moment...

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!

Of course, we are! It's what we do! On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and, filling in for Kevin Baxter, who was in Ontario at the Fury game (but still calls in), is Christian Miles. Josh and Christian start by talking about the gamble the Galaxy are making with Costa and why we're all naturally wired to suggest this wasn't the most innovative way to spend $5-million (reportedly). But Josh will put on his aviation hat and tell you why a single picture of Costa can tell you the type of plane he's flying and where his plane is going. Also, what time you could expect him to land in Los Angeles. Then the guys dive into the preseason scrimmage that saw the Galaxy score four times and outplay the defending Supporters Shield winners. Was Bruce Arena having his New England Revolution play poorly on purpose? And why should you get excited about Kevin Cabral but still be worried about the Galaxy's defense? Christian and Josh will dive into the prospects of Jalen Neal, Dejan Joveljic, and Mark Delgado and tell you why the club is ready to see some of their younger players playing a more prominent role. Plus, with the injuries to Derrick Williams and Jorge Villafaña, will Raheem Edwards and Julian Araujo usher in some tactical flexibility? And could Kelvin Leerdam become a back three center back? We've got a great show that will even close the book on Cristian Pavon and tell you why the Galaxy haven't made an offer for a very long time. So why were they in Brazil earlier this year? We'll talk about it all! Thanks for joining us on a busy Monday show!

One of Brazil's finest talents, for many the brilliance of Edmundo on the pitch was matched only by his madness off it The post Edmundo: O Animal appeared first on These Football Times.

This is how this season is going to go, isn't it? Hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Viera are back to discuss the Galaxy's focus on an injury-prone Brazilian struggling to cut it in the second division of Brazil. Do the Galaxy think they have found an overlooked diamond in the rough? And are they going for it hard? The guys discuss the risks and rewards of Douglas Costa and why he's going to have to find a way to convince Galaxy fans he wants to make a difference in LA. Plus, could a short-term contract make more sense even if it is worth close to $5-million? Josh and Eric also discuss 2022's plain-white-t and why the replica unearthed in London is probably pretty close to the actual design that is coming out. Will you buy it? Finally, the guys discuss Julian Araujo not making the Mexico bench against Jamaica, why the Galaxy probably gave away a whole bunch of money when moving Lletget so early in the window, and why Omar Gonzalez and AJ DeLaGarza are gracing the beaches in the South Bay as "Galaxy East" comes to SoCal for the preseason. Also, please find a time to donate to the family of Producer Ben from the Riot Squadcast as his family deals with the loss of his wife and the mother of their two girls (LINK: https://gofund.me/8784705a). We've got a busy show that will get you ready for the start of the preseason games on Saturday. The time has come!

But the story of the draft was their first-round draft pick. And on today's show, Farai Mutatu will stay up well past his bedtime to call into the podcast to talk to us. Host Josh Guesman welcomes Mutatu to the Galaxy fans on the west coast just as the former Michigan State player prepares to wing across the country and land in Los Angeles -- a place he's only been once before. Mutatu will tell you about his journey to getting drafted by the Galaxy and what he thinks he can bring to a Galaxy team who can always use a guy who doesn't know how to give up. After the phone call, Josh will talk about the Galaxy's other draft picks and why the club probably passed on their final draft pick. But what obstacles will get in the way of any of these former college players? International slots? Roster spots? We'll discuss it all. Then Josh will get you updated on Victor Vazquez, who looks to be returning to the Galaxy as he left Europe and videoed his fantastic lay-flat bad. How do we get into first class? The answer? More superchats! Finally, Josh will go over the rumor that is dying on the vine and tell you why Douglas Costa says he wants to stay in Brazil. Do the Galaxy believe that? Does Costa believe that? And what of our french rumors? We've got a packed show that will answer some of your questions and get you ready for Sunday's first day of training. As always, thanks for joining us twice every week!

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!

Jimbo welcomes Daniel Storey, Natalie Gedra and Charlie Eccleshare into the pod after a weekend of not a lot of football but a whole lot of talking points. Spurs and Liverpool share the spoils in one of the games of the season so far. But it’s the officiating that takes centre stage. Are we heading towards a refereeing crisis with a dearth of talented officials in this country? Meanwhile Man City have entered champions mode, as we compare and contrast Cancelo and Alexander-Arnold. And Chelsea are paying the price for not matching the goal scoring prowess of their rivals.

Paris Saint-Germain might be without their Brazilian striker Neymar for next week's clash with Barcelona within the Champions League. The 29-year-old went off injured against Caen in their French Cup game on Wednesday night, which throws into doubt his involvement within the Barca game next Tuesday. Paris Saint-Germain striker Neymar could miss next week’s Champions League tie with Barcelona. The 29-year-old Brazilian striker had to go away the pitch injured during his side’s French Cup game with Caen on Wednesday night. Any injury would give him just days to be fit the match against his former team after being hurt within the 1-0 win courtesy of Moise Kean’s goal within the last half . After the match, Kean played down fears over Neymar’s injury, saying: “All is well, he's ready. Tomorrow, in training, he will recuperate. He are going to be ready for the match [against Barcelona].” Mauricio Pochettino was forced to require off the striker on the hour mark and was replaced by Kylian Mbappe, and therefore the injury comes just after Neymar had returned from a month’s absence thanks to an ankle injury. PSG reached the ultimate of the Champions League last season only to suffer a defeat to Bayern Munich, and have yet to win the trophy in their history. Source: Eurosport

On this episode of Rooster and the Devil, we interview Bruno Lapa of the USL Championship's Birmingham Legion FC. Bruno has a great soccer story. He grew up playing the game in Brazil, spent some time on trial in Portugal, and eventually ended up playing for Montegverde Academy in Florida. From there, he took a path that is traditionally blazed by American soccer youth. He committed to Wake Forest and spent 4 years playing for the University (2016-2019). He was the #10 on the squad, a captain, and a First Team All-American during his time there. After College, he ended up in the USL Championship and was set to begin his first season with Birmingham Legion FC. And then Coronavirus happened. So, like the rest of us, he sits and waits for soccer to come back. Great conversation with a great young man! Am I old now if I start saying great young man?
