    Lazio tops the table, more United mediocrity, trouble for Nice and Betis, and Celje and TNS magic - Europa League Matchweek 3, Conference League Matchweek 2
    Oct 27 2024

    It was a day of thrilling upsets, particularly in the Conference League, where Celje trounces Basaksehir, Vikingur buries Cercle, and TNS gets the Welsh league's first ever points in a European competition.

    Elsewhere, United, Nice, and Betis continue to struggle, Lazio go top of the Europa League, and Chelsea are...pretty damn good?

    All that and more on this week's AGT!

    Cheers Adrian Siemieniec!

    Club Spotlight: FC Twente
    Oct 14 2024

    It's the international break, and you know what that means: Club Spotlight time!

    This week, David walks us through Enschede's own FC Twente of the Eredivisie, including all its rich history, honors, and tactical iterations.

    Finally, we finish on Twente's promising new era (including recent points earned against Manchester United and Fenerbahce) , which places them in a fascinating context within Dutch football and even this season's Europa League.

    Cheers again Joseph Oosting!

    Oct 5 2024

    36 games games in the Europa and Conference Leagues have come and gone, and we have a LOT to talk about!

    In the Europa, we had a thriller in Porto, smaller clubs getting huge upset results ( RFS (!), Elfsborg, Twente, Anderlecht), bigger clubs struggling (Galatasaray, Fenerbahce, Roma, Sociedad), and Tottenham youngsters stormed the gates in Hungary.

    Meanwhile in the Conference, Chelsea continued their scintillating form, Fiorentina did Fiorentina stuff, Betis fell in Poland, and Cercle Brugge ran riot on St. Gallen.

    Plus, we discuss the proposed changes to the Welsh Cup.

    All that and more on this week's show!

    Cheers, Oscar Hiljemark (P.S. - Stop being so handsome)!
