Description

It's a big episode of The Football Misfits Podcast as the trio of Ronny, LV, and Spencer discuss the recent UEFA Champions League and Europa League Finals; which saw Chelsea FC and Villarreal CF lift silverware. The good brothers talk about the openness of the UCL affair in Portugal and what the result means for the likes of N'golo Kante, Thomas Tuchel, and Pep Guardiola. They also share their thoughts on the UEL Final including Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's mismanagement, Unai Emery's historic fourth title, and those WILD penalties. They also share a quick word on the European coaching carousel and promotions from lower leagues to the top flights. The two major finals are where The First Team finds B.S. of the Week!
