Content Themes

Welcome to the definitive French football podcast. Host Matt Spiro and his guests attack the burning issues in the French game: will Kylian Mbappé finally get a Ballon d’Or, might Paul Pogba revive his career, can Lens push PSG all the way in the #Ligue1 title race, could Luis Enrique mastermind back-to-back Champions League triumphs, who are the players set to star at this summer’s World Cup; and, crucially, when will Roberto De Zerbi and Olympique de Marseille spontaneously combust? Expect insightful analysis, cultural chat, beaucoup d’humour britannique and… a certain je ne sais quoi.
PSG look to be flagging at the wrong moment! After suffering their first home defeat of the Ligue 1 season at the hands of Monaco, Matt Spiro speaks to the former PSG defender Didier Domi to find out if he is worried about the upcoming Champions League tie with Chelsea. Matt and Didier have a great chat in Part 1 of the episode, and any concerned PSG fans will probably be reassured by the former Newcastle and Leeds player’s words.
Matt then goes on a rant as we hear the first ‘FFS Moment’ of our angry but fun new series. Then in Part 2, George Boxall and Jonathan Johnson pop in to run the rule over the Matchday 25 action in Ligue 1. It’s worth tuning in, if only to hear about George’s manic month reporting on madcap club Olympique de Marseille. JJ congratulates Lens for keeping the title race alive and wonders what Corentin Tolisso needs to do exactly to get a France recall.
