MVP - Meister Vogler PodcastMVP - Meister Vogler Podcast(Schon?) Zeit für ein Zürcher SaisonabschlussfazitWas? Die Saison ist doch noch gar nicht vorbei? Doch, für den FC Zürich eigentlich schon, denn in den letzten Spielen geht es um absolut gar nichts mehr. Nora gönnt ihrem Verein das Versagen in dieser Saison und ist überzeugt, dass es genau so weitergehen wird, wenn Ancillo Canepa die Zügel nicht wieder in die Hand nimmt und Malenovic «aussortiert». Ein unrealistischer Wunsch. Lea zieht etwas Positives aus der Zürcher Flop-Saison: Malenovic hat dafür gesorgt, dass sie ein deutlich besseres Bild von David Degen hat. Wir reden zudem über Mendys Tanzbein, Shaqiris Goldfüsschen und...2025-05-021h 02MVP - Meister Vogler PodcastMVP - Meister Vogler PodcastMalenović und Degen - ein ungleich gleiches DuoWas Miloš Malenović und David Degen gemeinsam haben?
