About this listen

Much like a United boardroom meeting, this episode starts with shock, disbelief, and a general lack of foresight. We dive into Raphael Varane’s astonishment at Erik ten Hag’s contract extension—before the axe inevitably fell—dissecting how fear-based management in modern football is about as effective as a Chelsea rebuild.


Then, we ask the unthinkable: Could Real Madrid, for all their unrelenting success, finally do what’s eluded them—win a historic treble? More importantly, why do they keep winning the UEFA Champions League while other clubs hoard transfer flops like limited-edition NFTs?


Somewhere in between, we pull out life lessons from Madrid’s European dominance, because if there’s one thing Los Blancos teach us, it’s that persistence, timing, and the occasional Jude Bellingham screamer can get you through just about anything.
