CHRIS WHEELER: Three months further on and Carrick is presiding over a run of seven wins in 10, and a considerably more stable club than the one that lurched from drama to crisis under Amorim.

MICHAEL CARRICK was relaxing and watching from a beach in Barbados the last time Manchester United faced Leeds. Even he did not imagine he would soon get the call from his old club to take over at Old Trafford. It was at ex-boss Ruben Amorim’s post-match press conference after a 1-1 draw at Elland Road in January...

I also put this in a tag at the beginning of the episode because I know that nobody reads show notes! This week, we talk about the boys! And LAFC coming to town! Are you reading this? Why?

Welcome to It Was What It Was, the football history podcast. In today’s episode, co-hosts Jonathan Wilson and Rob Draper explore one of the most powerful stories in football history: Zambia’s remarkable triumph at the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations.

Nineteen years after a devastating plane crash claimed the lives of their national squad, Zambia rose from the ashes to claim continental glory.

Jimbo’s got the whole gang together as Julien Laurens, James Horncastle, Seb Stafford-Bloor and Pol Ballús indulge in some European chit-chat as the season reaches its climax. The Serie A chaos continued with the title set to be decided on Friday night… unless a play-off is required! That’s after Inter were held 2-2 by Lazio while Napoli were goalless at Parma, but it’s Antonio Conte’s side who still sit a point clear at the top of the table.

Barcelona were still on the beers as they were beaten 3-2 by Villarreal, but it didn’t matter after more Lamine Yamal magic had sealed the La Liga title against Espanyol in midweek. Meanwhile, the rebuild’s already started at Real Madrid with Dean Huijsen signed and the announcement of new manager Xavi Alonso seemingly imminent… And in the Bundesliga, Dortmund completed their remarkable turnaround under Niko Kovac to seal a Champions League spot - while champions Bayern Munich finished the season 13 points clear of Leverkusen as Harry Kane made it back-to-back Golden Boots. Plus - what’s the mood across Europe as the Premier League’s 16th and 17th-placed banter clubs do battle in Bilbao in Wednesday night’s Europa League final? Produced by Lucy Oliva.

Gordon Duncan, Mark Wilson and Gordon Dalziel are live from Southern Germany's biggest sports bar - Palm Beach in Stuttgart, for Friday night's Clyde 1 Superscoreboard. They're joined by members of the Tartan Army as we build up to Scotland's biggest game of the tournament, against Hungary on Sunday. We'll also be speaking to PG Ciarletta, brains behind Scotland's anthem "From Glasgow To Berlin" - and fresh from walking 1,000 miles to Munich from Scotland, Craig Ferguson joins us on the show.

On this week’s episode on The Overlap, brought to you by Sky Bet, we are joined by Newcastle United and England winger Anthony Gordon. Gary Neville meets Gordon along Whitley Bay beach. He starts with the first part of quick-fire questions, where the Liverpudlian opens up about the importance of psychology and meditation on his game. Gordon made a huge decision to move to Newcastle from Everton in January 2022 and talks about life at St James Park under Eddie Howe, his ambitions and the club's goals as he enjoys his most prolific spell in professional football to date. With the upcoming Euros and having made his senior England debut in March’s international friendlies against Brazil and Belgium, the 23-year-old will be looking to replicate last summer's achievements that saw him named player of the tournament as England lifted the under-21 European trophy. Lastly, Quick-Fire Questions resume where Gordon reveals his best goal, who he’d want to take a last-minute penalty to save his life and which former-teammate Gordon reminds Gary of in terms of self-confidence.

Ladies and gentlemen, people of all ages, he has finally arrived. The GOAT is in America! The Cooligans are back with a hilarious new episode to break down Lionel Messi's arrival on South Beach ahead of his unveiling at Inter Miami. We ask if the press conference will be more like a Latino Super Bowl halftime show and comment on some clips of Messi in the wild. The guys also give their thoughts on the USL reportedly implementing promotion/relegation within their pyramid (FINALLY!!!) and share their disappointment in the USMNT being eliminated from the Gold Cup. Alexis even unleashes a scorching hot take about Taylor Swift's song-writing that derails the show and will probably have an army of angry Swifties lining up outside of our studio. We didn't mean any harm, we promise! Exclusive content: https://www.patreon.com/SoccerCooligans This is where we put everything we shouldn't say 😉 Learn more about your ad choices.

It was billed for months as an epic title decider but it didn’t materialise as a Man City masterclass saw Pep’s men wipe the floor with Arsenal at the Etihad. Is the championship race over for Arsenal and is there anything this City side can’t do?

On Clash of the Correspondents James is joined by Fulham fan Dara Curran and West Ham fan Chris Stone to discuss the latest at their clubs and preview Saturday's meeting at Craven Cottage. Are Fulham on the beach or is there still plenty to play for? Recent disappointments are discussed and the impact of Aleksander Mitrovic's 8 game ban. Should David Moyes be sacked? West Ham find themselves still deep in trouble after The Hammers 5-1 mauling by Newcastle on Wednesday night. There's discussion on why the fixture list gives even greater cause for concern. Plus, both clubs still have a Double Gameweek to come (34), so should we actually be paying attention to these two clubs? The likes of Leno, Tete, Pereira, Soloman, Vinicius, Fabianski, Zouma, Bowen, Benrahma and Ings could all attract interest... but do the Correspondents think any will be worth investing in...?

Today’s dispatch, complete with photography, represents the first of several messages he’ll share from Qatar—where the atmosphere isn’t quite like World Cups past. It might look right on TV, but it doesn’t feel right in the streets. Qatari…

Marcus, Jim and David trudge into the studio after a turgid night for England, who reminded us just how bad we used to have it. It’s okay though: Uri Geller’s helicopter is on its way to Qatar to save the day. Speaking of Qatar, they officially made history as the tournament’s worst hosts after losing to Ecuador. We also recap Wales’ last-gasp sickener against Iran - not that any of their fans mind, as they’re all on the beach in Tenerife. Pete’s Film Club is back!

On this Planet FPL Clash of the Correspondents Podcast James is joined by Burnley fan Jack Toner and Southampton fan Matt Samuel to discuss all the latest at their clubs and the double Gameweek for both clubs which includes a meeting at Turf Moor next Thursday. Burnley's battle to beat the drop which looks more difficult again following Sunday's defeat at Norwich but their remaining fixtures are decent, can they chase down Everton Or Leeds? Southampton may be on the beach, Saturday's mauling at home to Chelsea could have been worse than the final 6-0 scoreline and questions are asked as to why a team that was in such good form now appear so out of it. Plus, the FPL dilemmas that matter for both those using the Free Hit this week and those that aren't; including, Weghorst and Broja the points dodgers, if Adams is actually the standout attacking asset from the two clubs, Ward-Prowse's consistency, Cornet's prospects, if defensive concerns may mean it's best to avoid and if Roberts can win his place back from Lowton...

- 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. -- It was a relatively quiet week for the LA Galaxy. But we're starting to see some player rumors heat things up. Can the Galaxy take advantage of the smaller market struggles to take a giant leap forward in 2022? Host Josh Guesman brings you all the latest news and rumors surrounding the Galaxy and how each of those rumored players could affect how we view the club's offseason. Josh will start with the Sebastian Lletget rumors and why the Galaxy would think of trading a fan favorite. And he'll remind the listeners that the vocal minority on Lletget is absolutely a minority and that the public relations of this move must also be considered. But what could the Galaxy get with a trade in the league? And why is New England a clear landing spot for him? Next, Josh will focus on 31-year-old defensive midfielder Ilie Sanchez. There are some things that could loosely link him to the Galaxy, and that wouldn't be a bad thing. SO STOP SAYING 31 IS OLD! It's old for some players, but Sanchez has the track record of being a reliable starter for years in MLS. Plus, why is defensive midfield a position of need if the Galaxy brought in Rayan Raveloson? Finally, Corner of the Galaxy turns into House Hunters as Galaxy President Chris Klein lists his Newport Beach house for sale. What does that mean for a man who should definitely be on the hot seat (but probably isn't)? And what stupid story does Josh have about meeting Klein 13 years ago in a driveway in Corona Del Mar? It's a good Thursday show that will at least keep you abreast of what is happening around MLS and the Galaxy. Are you ready for everything to kick into the crazy season? Because that will happen faster than you think!

Like John H. Miller charging into the chaos at Omaha Beach, it seems Ben White has quite the job at the centre of Arsenal's defence. Keep the sand out of your boots, Ben. Kate, Jim and Andy recap the weekend's football, which saw Celtic starting the Scottish Premiership season in disappointing fashion and Arsenal losing an absolutely crucial pre-season fixture. We also assess where it went wrong for Team GB and wonder how Leon Bailey might get on at Aston Villa.

The uncertainty around Frank Lampard’s future has finally cleared. The club legend was sacked yesterday amidst a poor run of form and ominous signs in the dressing room. Kate, Luke and Andy are here to look over a tenure that offered encouraging signs initially, but seems now to only have been a temporary solution. Elsewhere, José Mourinho’s duet with Gareth Ainsworth didn’t go as planned after their 4-1 win, one that flattered a misfiring Tottenham side. We also celebrate Mick McCarthy’s triumphant return from faraway lands, get the lowdown from Andy on Martin Ødegaard and hear some of the best distractions shouted at opposition players. What’s the weirdest thing you’ve heard someone shout at an opposition player to put them off?

Marcus, Vish and Andy are here to say their heartfelt goodbyes to a few stalwarts of English Football and look over the entirely expected and underwhelming spectacle that was Arsenal 3-0 Newcastle. First on the plane is Mesut Özil, who closes off his messy final chapter at Arsenal with his expected move to Fenerbahçe. We wonder how he'll be remembered at Arsenal, who cast further doubt over Steve Bruce’s masterplan at Newcastle last night. There’s also time to party in the city where the heat is on, as Phil Neville’s on South Beach until the break of dawn: he’s taking charge of Inter Miami! Danny Drinkwater and Jack Wilshere also look for new starts at Kasımpaşa and Bournemouth respectively.

Bayern Munich’s relentless march to glory reached its inevitable conclusion last night with their Champions League victory over PSG. Kate, Jim and Andy are here to discuss how impressive Hansi Flick’s turnaround has been and what’s next for Neymar et al. We also celebrate yet another win for Sevilla in the Europa League, kick off this week’s question on The Topics and hand Guus Hiddink some suncream as he takes charge of Curaçao.

As the proposed takeover of Newcastle United rolls on, fans are forced into difficult discussions about the club’s potential ownership and football’s wider issues. Jules, Pete and Vish are in the studio to wrestle with these competing feelings on today’s episode of the Football Ramble. Elsewhere, Adam Lallana returns to the beach as he joins Brighton and Neil Warnock makes Middlesbrough his latest managerial home. We also try to work out which aspect of post-lockdown football we prefer: Mike Dean’s beard or Micah Richards and Roy Keane’s adorable bromance.

Kate, Luke and Jim are here to ask; do the champions always get a corridor of applause from everyone once they’ve won the league? Frankly we can’t remember, but then there’s a lot of stuff we’ve forgotten about since the world stopped making sense, like that Eric Dier crowd thing. On the various pitches Liverpool walked through their corridor and all over Brighton, James Tarkowski got away with one against West Ham and Man City put five past a Newcastle team who seemed to be having out of body experiences where they were on a beach rather than at the Etihad. Elsewhere we examine the MLS Fyre Festival controversy, the sudden introduction of a new type of card in La Liga and the Bezification of in game crowd noise.

This episode was taped on May 26th before protests for the murder of George Floyd, so we won't be addressing much of what's been going on the last few days.

Zak and Brad recap Leg One of the Sounders' Round of 16 tilt with C.D. Olimpia in the Concacaf Champions League and Steve interviews Head Coach Brian Schmetzer during the team’s preseason trip to Long Beach, Calif.

Robbie Mustoe and Robbie Earle on Liverpool's nervy 2-0 win against Red Bull Salzburg to take first place in Group E of the Champions League (1:55), Chelsea's 2-1 win over Lille to secure a place in the Round of 16 (13:15) and who is the current favorite to win it all (20:45).

Ah, footballers and the internet, what an endlessly brilliant combination. We celebrate the more bizarre, early examples of the form - Andy Carroll on Bebo, for example - while basking in the glory of some more recent accidental gems, like Phil Neville’s early morning beach excursions. It’s here to stay and it seems like it’s here to pump out and endless supply of Patrice Evra licking chickens, footballers arguing with themselves and borderline illegality.

One of American soccer's stories of 2014 was Landon Donovan's retirement. Donovan was a complex figure who starred for the U.S. in a time of transition. To celebrate his contribution to the American game, we have cut a 30-minute special out of Rog's interviews with him over the last month of his career, which took place at the Galaxy's training ground, and the beach near Donovan's home. Landon talks candidly about his success, his battle against depression, and taking a Teddy Bear on the road as a young MLS player.
