The Independent revealed their top 100 players of the century during this week, but how does their ranking compare to Matthijs and Declan’s?
Part 1
Euro 2020 is beginning to take shape, countries are starting to officially qualify and the permutation calculators are out in full force. Reach out and your nation might just feel qualification at their fingertips.
Hello and welcome to the Total Football podcast. I am your host Declan Harte, and joining me this week is Matthijs O’Flaherty.
Matthijs, are you looking forward to this madcap, all over the place, European Championships format?
Part 2
Ireland’s chances of qualifying took a massive hit this weekend. A 0-0 draw with Georgia, in a pathetic and cowardly display, has left Mick McCarthy’s men needing a win over Switzerland this Tuesday
England lost their first qualifying match in over 10 years, with a 2-1 loss at the Czech Republic. Worrying times for the man of the people Gareth Southgate?
Jose Mourinho has apparently turned down the Lyon job because he’s already agreed his next role. Where will it be? Are we ready for the return of Mourinho?
Arsene Wenger has announced his first autobiography is to be written and released for Autumn next year. It’s a real slow news week…
Part 3
This week British newspaper, the Independent, has started a countdown of the top 100 players of the century. They’ve only published numbers 100 down to 81 at the time of recording, but because it’s a slow news week, we thought we’d have a bit of fun and try to whittle down our own list of the top 10 players of the century. Just who are the best of the best?
Part 4
It’s the biggest game in English football this weekend as Liverpool visit rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford. Liverpool’s winning start to the season goes under threat to a stadium they have a poor record at in recent years. Can they put the United hoodoo behind them for a historic win, or can United be the ones to finally stop The Reds winning streak?
