  • Alternative LaLiga Awards: End of Season Show
    May 22 2024
    Robbie Dunne and Jamie Kemp have trawled through this season's stats and compiled a list of alternative LaLiga awards. Forget your player or coach of the year trophy, these awards are for players who don't always get the headlines. For example, The ‘you can’t pick Jude Bellingham’ POTY Award goes to an incredible young talent who has been lighting up the league since he first took to the field last August. There's also the ‘Jamie Kemp Statistical Anomaly’ Award, the ‘Glue Guy’ Award and lots more. In reality, it's just a chance for Jamie and Robbie to look back through the year and pick out some players, managers and teams who have caught their eye. They also cast their eye on next season and which teams might be in need of an overhaul, where there are a few contenders for who needs to look at this the most.

  • Another Real Madrid Comeback Special
    May 9 2024
    Robbie Dunne and Jamie Kemp discuss Real Madrid's incredible season, one that even Carlo Ancelotti says he didn't imagine was possible. They have already sealed LaLiga and are in another Champions League final after beating Bayern Munich at the Santiago Bernabéu on Wednesday night in typical Madrid fashion. They chat about the team's improved balance and the team's defensive mentality. They also wax lyrical about Toni Kroos’ effect. He completed the most passes (173), long passes (24) and created the most chances (7) of any player across the four teams in the semi-finals. They also discuss Vinicius and his overall production this season, which has reached a new pinnacle. His 156 minutes per non-penalty goal this season is best mark of his Real Madrid career. They also discuss how Kylian Mbappé's arrival could affect the squad and tactical balance.

  • Logic-Defying Girona
    May 2 2024
    On this week’s episode, Robbie Dunne and Jamie Kemp welcome Abel Meszaros onto the podcast to discuss the logic-defying Girona's season. They are on the brink of Champions League football next season and are already playing some of the most attacking football in Europe, despite not having a star-laden squad. Together with Abel, they discuss Girona's adaptive build-up and the role of Miguel Gutierrez as part of that. They also discuss Savio's emergence as one of the best wingers in the world but also reflect upon the defensive side of the ball where Girona struggle. They wrap things up by discussing the summer and what will, no doubt, be a busy summer for Michel and Girona's recruitment team.
