    Fabrizio Romano on “Here We Go,” 20-hour workdays & the transfers that changed everything (Soccer 3/4)

    Marco Messina sits down with the King of Transfers, Fabrizio Romano, for a deep dive into the grind behind the biggest scoops in football. From pioneering a digital-first approach to building a one-man media empire, Fabrizio explains why 20-hour workdays are the norm and how he balances being “a journalist for sure, but with skills as a content creator.” He opens up about being self-taught in multiple languages, the accidental birth of Here We Go, and navigating the toxic side of social media - including when he chooses to clap back. The conversation pulls back the curtain on trust and access: sitting on sensitive transfer news to protect key relationships, relying on instinct to separate truth from noise, and how his mindset has evolved from needing to be first to prioritizing accuracy and harmony. He reflects on the Lucas Paquetá saga, and shares pride in breaking the Moisés Caicedo-to-Chelsea bombshell despite Liverpool’s late push. Plus, which fanbases react the loudest (Indonesia and Manchester United supporters top the list), why he’s backing Carlo Ancelotti to lead Brazil on the world stage, and a rapid-fire “in-the-mixer” segment that puts the transfer guru on the spot.

    Rafael Leão on AC Milan, CR7 & Portugal, Diogo Jota, Music & Zlatan (Soccer 2/20)

    Anita Jones sits down with Portugal and AC Milan star Rafael Leão for a candid conversation about pressure, progression, and life beyond the pitch. Leão reflects on his humble beginnings on the outskirts of Lisbon, being ghosted by Benfica before landing at Sporting CP, and handling early comparisons to Cristiano Ronaldo - the kind of “good pressure,” he says, that shaped his mentality. He also opens up about his relationship with streamer IShowSpeed, his respect for the rise of content creators in football, and why he embraces connecting the game to a new generation of fans. At AC Milan, Leão discusses managing expectations at one of Europe’s biggest clubs, adapting to a new role, and why “football now is about numbers.” He looks back on winning the Scudetto and being named Serie A MVP, the live-or-die intensity of the Milan derby, and how Zlatan Ibrahimović’s relentless competitiveness pushed him to another level. He also breaks down his growing on-field chemistry with Christian Pulisic. With Portugal, Leão explains why he believes Roberto Martínez is the right man to lead the national team, recalls the “crazy aura” of meeting Ronaldo for the first time, and speaks emotionally about the passing of Diogo Jota - “every game we think about him.” Off the field, he shares how becoming a father at a young age changed everything.

    Marcus Thuram on identity, Inter, France, and not being afraid to speak out (Soccer 2/5)

    France and Inter Milan striker Marcus Thuram joins Anita Jones for a candid conversation about football, family, and forging his own identity. From a friendly rivalry with his brother Khéphren - “I wanted to prove I’m the big brother” - to navigating the weight of being Lilian Thuram’s son, Marcus opens up about maturity, values, and learning to question the world around him. He reflects on fashion as a quiet competition within the French national team, why comfort now beats standing out, and the small, surreal moments of his upbringing including giving Lionel Messi’s boots to a friend. On the pitch, Thuram breaks down his transition into a striker, his chemistry with Lautaro Martínez, and what it meant to win the Scudetto in his first season at Inter, capped by an unforgettable goal in the Derby della Madonnina. He discusses his evolution as a player, tuning out social media, resisting data obsession, and learning to process criticism without letting emotion dictate his game. Thuram also reflects on life in Italy, the dream of getting to represent France, and the emotion of making the 2022 World Cup squad including his fuzzy memories of coming off the bench in the final. Plus, why he isn’t afraid to use his platform to confront racism through education and mental strength.

    Jamie Carragher: "I don't want people to remember me as a footballer" (Soccer 1/29)

    Kate Scott sits down with UCL Today co-host and Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher for a candid conversation about football, media, pressure, and life after the final whistle. Jamie reflects on the intensity of playing for Liverpool, the toll it took, and why management was never a path he wanted to follow. He opens up about learning to shut out outside noise from early criticism in his career to navigating controversy and social media as one of football’s most recognizable voices. The conversation turns to his evolution as a pundit, why he’s driven to be remembered as a top broadcaster rather than just a former player, and how working in media helped him step outside the Liverpool bubble. Jamie also shares what he misses most about playing, what it’s like watching his son chase his own football dreams while trying to stay quiet on the sidelines, and how seeing his daughter pursue acting has helped him enjoy something completely removed from the game. Plus, reflections on his Scouse identity, his pride in seeing Liverpudlians succeed, his sense of responsibility to give back, and the constant support of his wife, Nicola.

But for all the titles and trophies, he insists that competition means more than silverware - and explains why national team glory tops club success in his book. He reflects on his relationships with managers like Pep Guardiola, and why there were no hard feelings when Bayern decided not to offer him a contract extension. Thomas also shares admiration for Cristiano Ronaldo’s longevity and how he’s come to accept that playing for Bayern at 36 isn’t the norm. Thomas talks legacy, pressure, and why despite having no mentality coach, he has always gotten the most out of his talents. He shares his thoughts on Florian Wirtz’s move to Liverpool, being a one-club man, and the value of keeping a “normal” life outside football.
