Description

The 2000s marked the last decade of the UEFA Cup before it became the Europa League. On this final installment of an epic three-parter, Franci and Nicola continue draft their respective XIs from the UEFA Cup finals of the decade (9:30).

Who will be the first pick in a star-studded draft (14:15). The list is long, spanning cult heroes like Pierre Van Hooijdonk to players that have surprisingly never won continental European honors with their club, like Patrick Vieira. Will a Balon D'Or winner make an appearance? What about a crazy 2000s goalkeeper who keeps getting mentioned on this podcast? Finally, who will manage and captain each side (50:30)?

All of this and much, much more on this episode of Football In The 2000s!
