Mailbag: Will we miss this version of the Champions League?
Ahead of the Champions League’s impending changes, Marcus, Jim and Andy look back over some of their favourite moments from this era of the competition - from peak Jose Mourinho shithousing to some of the defining teams and managers synonymous with that magical anthem.
Plus, we wonder which English players could benefit from a move abroad and we wrestle with a truly baffling hypothetical dilemma standing between England and Euros glory.

The Preview Show: Lunin Tunes
We’re on the eve of the Champions League final! Marcus, Luke, Jim and Andy are getting in the mood by trying to work out what medicine Andriy Lunin is using to recover from the illness that is keeping him out of the final.
Elsewhere, Luke and Andy show genuine fear at the prospect of José Mourinho managing in Turkey and we hear about an amateur side that won 43-1 on the final day of the season to win the title. Remarkable…

Lions Watch: Does Gareth Southgate use his substitutes enough?
With just a couple of weeks until the Euros kicks off, we’re pretty sure about how Gaz’s Gang will line up in their opening game against Serbia - but how should he use his substitutes? And does Gareth Southgate have a track record of failing to properly implement changes from the bench?
Elsewhere, Ashley Young provides the Take Thermometer with its spiciest offering so far and we wonder if Gareth will bring back the waistcoat as a nostalgia play.

Diet Pep
Enzo Maresca looks set to be the new Chelsea manager as he is rumoured to have agreed a potential six-year contract with the club. Don’t you dare suggest that Chelsea won’t honour all six years of that contract!
Today, Marcus, Andy, Vish and Pete explain why they think Maresca is perfect for the Chelsea role and why Leicester should hire Jamie Vardy as player manager. Plus, they question whether fans are getting value for money after Premier League clubs announce they are increasing the price of season tickets for next season.

De Brexit
It's bank holiday Monday and Vish is in the studio, that can only mean one thing… Man United have won the FA Cup! He’s joined by Marcus, Jim and Pete to relive the glory of the game, for a third time, and to speculate on the future of Erik ten Hag AND Kevin de Bruyne.
Elsewhere, Pete explains why Wayne Rooney was the ultimate winner this weekend and the Ramblers advise Leeds United not to bother with the Play-offs in future.

Mailbag: Where have all the elite managers gone?
Bayern want the Burnley manager, while Chelsea want the Ipswich, Brentford and Leicester managers. So, where did all the established ‘super coaches’ go? Or are the super clubs just in a right old s**t state and no one wants to be Louis van Gaaled?
Marcus, Jim and Vish offer their theories on today’s Mailbag. Plus, daft suggestions for a fourth domestic cup competition and a listener asks us for our extremely niche football awards. Most Crimson Red Card of the Season, anyone? Come join us!

Decent Show
But never forget: Kate Mason
Perfect football chat for British millennials
I’ve listened to this podcast for the best part of twelve years, and it’s one of my favourites. You feel like you’re listening in on 4+ mates talking and joking about the sport they love. Each person has a unique personality that works well in combo with others. It does have a British mainstream millennial male vibe to it (self-referential witty banter, the deliberate juxtaposition of intelligent discussion with low-level ‘banter’, nostalgia for the 90s etc.) which might not be to everyone’s tastes, but are definitely to mine.
For me, it did peak in the first half of the 2010s with the original 4 and hasn’t quite hit those heights again. However, that could equally be a reflection on my age and stage at that time. It still definitely retains enough of what I originally loved to keep me listening weekly. Highly recommended for football enjoyers.
