Disillusioned Jedi
The Totally Football Show with James Richardson - A podcast by The Athletic
Jimbo, Duncan Alexander, Tom Williams and Adam Crafton react to another enthralling midweek in the Champions League. It’s a last-gasp, lucky victory for Man United against Villarreal, saved by De Gea and Ronaldo again. With so many star names to try and accommodate, is Paul Pogba the piece that doesn’t fit? Man City are beaten in Paris where Lionel Messi, like Ronaldo, doesn’t do anything until he does something decisive. Has Pochettino found a blueprint for success at PSG? Chelsea lose again, this time to Juventus. Can Thomas Tuchel afford to be without Mount AND Kante? And Sasha Goryunov fills us in on one of the biggest shocks of all time – Sheriff’s win at the Bernabeu. Liverpool take on Man City in a state of the nation type Premier League showdown this weekend. We take the opportunity to pay tribute to the ageless James Milner. Plus Kick-Off 2 inspired VAR and the story of Viv Nicholson winning millions on the pools.
