An assault on the rulebook

The Totally Football Show with James Richardson - A podcast by The Athletic

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.
