After a brief absence, Turnstiles & Touchlines returns for 2026 with a deeper look at why this cycle keeps repeating at one of the world’s biggest clubs. From tactical drift and structural misalignment to the realities of caretaker periods and the risks of the next appointment, this episode breaks down what actually went wrong — and what realistic success looks like moving forward.

This is a conversation about identity, governance, and what happens when history collides with the modern game.

We’re back — and we’re starting where football’s biggest questions live.
