Great guest today, nice pod
I feel like Johns rant deserves clipped with some dramatic music
Really loved Hamza’s point on set piece optimisation. Great insight!
too much football talk in my espionage podcast
Looks like its confirmed. Inject it into my veins, this numbs the sting a bit today
… Ruben definitely won the last Rondo 24:54
He committed a hand ball trying to elbow an opponent
Hamzah was a great addition, fair play 👏 great insights and good chemistry for a debutante
Trying to add rules to mitigate set piece fouls will lead to more set piece goals
I swear you try and get higher in pitch with each successive "Hello!"
Props to Hamzah for rocking a Total 90 fit on his first appearance
I laughed way too much at the “a eagle” story, so much so that when I rewatched some I missed earlier and got to that bit I was PMSL again 😂
Funnily you should talk about jumping the shark, as this feels like the episode where Jon jumps the shark from devil's advocate and a bit of a wind up to actually properly annoying. It's like that Arsenal/West Ham decision has properly lives rent free in his head.
Looking for the Phone Shop comments..
42:11 Almost every big club needs a manager? Arsenal, Bayern, Barca, United, PSG and Madrid are all off the table. Liverpool has indicated they’re giving Slott another year. City has been tapping up Maresca for over a year. Where are these big teams with openings? Italy? Maybe Atletico but Simeone has till 27 on his contract, and would Alonso really manage them?
What's the name? "Bull, JJ Bull," I'll have my Tifo shaken and not stirred
First time i ever watch this podcast. Thought it was about football not a “comedy” show!
As a 44 year old American who went to the 1994 World Cup, I can say I’ve never heard or said “World Cup” without using “the” before it, so you must work with some weird people.

Can you ask JJ the next time he’s on what did the teacher have in her bag? Feel like that’s important info now
