Tifo Football Podcast The Athletic

Joe Devine, JJ Bull, Jon Mackenzie, Seb Stafford-Bloor, Michael Bailey and Reuben Pinder are here to talk about some football.

It’s the final Tifo Football podcast in this format and therefore we spent a massive part of it talking about… Spurs.

Ange Postecoglu is being heavily linked to taking the reins at Tottenham and we chat about how his Spurs team may look. 

We also talk about the Europa League final but specifically Jose Mourinho’s behaviour during and after the match towards referee Anthony Taylor. 

We also ask each other the burning questions we’ve always wanted to ask because why the hell not.  

This episode of the Tifo football podcast is presented by Joe Devine and produced by Steve Hankey.

JJ Bull, Jon Mackenzie and Reuben Pinder are here to talk about some football.

Newcastle United were the surprise package in the top four this season. But how will they evolve tactically? 

We react LIVE to the news that Mauricio Pochettino has been confirmed as Chelsea’s latest manager.

Leeds United and Leicester City join Southampton in relegation from the Premier League. We rake over the coals of a terrible season for two teams with names beginning with L.

As Europe’s biggest leagues also draw to a close we go on a quick jaunt across the continent to see what’s what.

And there’s discussion on rhinos as a present for the Pope, dragons, pirates and the Green Giant.

Man City have won their fifth title in six seasons. But do the ongoing allegations hanging over them mean that their achievements come with an asterisk?

We also spoke in wider terms about how the elite teams all seem to be in transition except for them boys in sky blue.
In Germany, Borussia Dortmund are in pole position to wrestle the Bundesliga title off Bayern Munich for the first time in 11 years. 

We return to England to look at the Premier League’s bottom as the fate of two relegation slots go to the final round of fixtures.

And there’s a lot of nonsense about baths, what percentage of human beings is water and other silly bits.

Joe Devine, Jon Mackenzie, JJ Bull and Seb Stafford-Bloor are here to talk about some football.

Arsenal’s title challenge is basically over after their home defeat to Brighton, with the Seagulls multi-faceted players impressing yet again.

Man City won their 11th straight game in the league against Everton as they look set to win the title again. But how long will their dominance last?

Southampton are down and we pick at the carcass of their squad and decide which bits are the choice cuts for other Premier League clubs to feast on.

Sergio Busquets will be leaving Barcelona at the end of the season. We discuss if he is an era defining player or a weaselly master of the dark arts, or both?

There is also some serious debate about the apparent flaws in key plot points in Lord of the Rings.

The race for the top four is hotting up, but which two of Manchester United, Liverpool and Newcastle United will make it?

Newcastle United’s hopes took a blow on Tyneside after their defeat to Arsenal who kept themselves on Manchester City’s very expensive coat tails.    

We preview the men’s Champions League semi-finals, and you may come out of listening to it knowing less about each tie than more to be honest…

We cast our eye briefly and inadequately over the final of League One, England’s third tier. 

Plus viscous syrup and various club nicknames.

We talk about the potential sackings of Javi Gracia and Victor Orta at Leeds United.

At the time of recording Sam Allardyce has been linked with the Elland Road hot seat so the chaps discuss what that would look like… 

Staying at the bottom of the table we talk about Leicester City drawing 2-2 with Everton and the wider relegation battle.

It was a very “goally” weekend with two 4-3 results, one of which was Liverpool winning 4-3 against Tottenham. A game which exposed the deep, deep flaws in both of these teams.

We also whizz through Man Utd Aston Villa and the Serie A table at a depth which is wholly inadequate.

Plus volcanic eruptions and Stonehenge…
