To hear more, visit sempremilan.substack.comLorenzo and Stefano discuss three remaining positions that AC Milan really need to bolster this summer, looking at some players who could fit the bill. This is the first of two parts, in which they also touch on Franco Baresi.
The Week in Football begins with the escalating crisis surrounding Gianni Infantino, as football associations withdraw their support and the threat of a World Cup boycott places the FIFA president's position under increasing pressure.The discussion turns to Arsène Wenger after the former Arsenal manager distances himself from FIFA's controversial investment plans. The hosts examine Wenger's carefully constructed statement, his role within the organisation and whether Arsenal supporters projected principles onto him that were always more conditional than they appeared. Further questions follow over money promised to World Cup host cities and the wider culture operating within FIFA.The pod also pays tribute to Franco Baresi, reflecting on the AC Milan and Italy legend, the historic defence he led and the enduring stature of one of football's greatest defenders.Elsewhere, Eddie Howe leaves Newcastle following a summer of major departures and a clear change in the club's direction. The hosts assess his legacy, Newcastle's youth-led rebuild and what success under a new manager could mean for how Howe's tenure is remembered. Kazuyoshi Miura's record-breaking goal at 59 then sparks a conversation about longevity, Cristiano Ronaldo and knowing when—or whether—to stop playing.Finally, Arsenal's failed pre-season stream and malfunctioning app open a wider debate about the club's relationship with its supporters, from paid friendlies and constant merchandise releases to ticket prices, hospitality and the growing feeling that fan loyalty is being treated as another revenue opportunity.Chapters:(00:00) - Arteta's Non-Negotiables & Intro(00:54) - Infantino's FIFA Crisis Deepens(03:28) - Arsène Wenger Breaks His Silence(10:19) - FIFA's Missing World Cup Payments(13:45) - Remembering Franco Baresi(18:29) - Eddie Howe Leaves Newcastle(21:37) - Assessing Eddie Howe's Legacy(23:22) - Kazuyoshi Miura Scores at 59(28:54) - Arsenal's Pre-Season Streaming Fiasco(30:56) - Was Arsenal's New Website Vibe-Coded?(32:18) - Are Arsenal Milking Their Supporters?(35:45) - Kits, Ticket Prices & More Hospitality(38:55) - Outro & Upcoming Episodes

Show dedicated to one of the greatest players to ever wear the Rossoneri shirt. We remember Franco Baresi—his incredible career, his leadership, unforgettable stories from Milanello, and the legacy he leaves behind. From Gattuso's famous dressing-room story to Paolo Maldini's heartfelt tribute, we'll celebrate the captain who defined what it meant to play for AC Milan.

Welcome back to FUT in Review #740! Today, Grandpapa Mac (Chris) and John Kirkham (John K) take over the studio to break down the summer FUTTIES grind, honor the passing of legendary Italian defender AC Milan icon Franco Baresi, and run an extensive, lawyer-reviewed cost-benefit analysis on the newly announced EA Sports FC 27 Pre-Order editions.We break down the financial value and gameplay content unfiltered:FIFA's Shelved Equity Deal: Football fans won! FIFA's controversial plan to sell off a commercial stake in the World Cup to private equity investors has officially been shelved following universal backlash. The panel breaks down the widening rift between UEFA and FIFA, asking if European football might eventually break off into its own standalone body.The Pink Card Grind: With summer in full swing and Season 8 XP flowing freely, the hosts debate whether anyone on Earth has actually packed the exact 99-rated FUTTIES card they wanted. From grinding the Frenkie de Jong SBC to evolutions of silver icons like Roberto Baggio and Ruud Gullit, we discuss why late-cycle Ultimate Team should be about fun, nostalgia, and past-and-present squad builds.Tribute to Franco Baresi: The crew pauses to pay tribute to the late, great Franco Baresi. We reminisce about Channel 4's iconic Golaccio 1990s Italian football broadcasts and discuss how EA's Icon cards help younger generations appreciate the legendary defenders who defined an era of lower-scoring, tactical Serie A perfection.EA Sports FC 27 Pre-Order Breakdown: We crunch the numbers across the three announced editions: Standard, Ultimate, and the limited-time Ultimate Plus (available until October 31st). Evaluating cash-equivalent values for 7-day early access (launching September 18), FC Points, Season Passes (Seasons 1–5), and exclusive Evolution slots, we help casuals, core players, and hard-core grinders decide which edition delivers the highest return on investment.⏱️ MID-SHOW HYDRATION BREAK
On this week's episode of The Joy of Football Podcast, Martin Tyler and Neil Barnett return with one of their most wide-ranging discussions yet, as the countdown to the new Premier League season continues. From managerial changes and transfer uncertainty to football finances, England's World Cup history and emotional tributes to some of the game's greatest names, there's plenty to get stuck into. The episode begins with What's Next?, where Martin and Neil debate the changing face of Premier League management. With the era of Sir Alex Ferguson, Arsène Wenger, Jürgen Klopp, Pep Guardiola and José Mourinho now over, they ask whether football has lost its heavyweight managerial rivalries. The discussion also covers Newcastle United's future following Eddie Howe's departure, Aston Villa's transfer decisions, West Ham United's new ownership ambitions, Marcus Rashford's uncertain future, Vinícius Júnior's contract situation, Profit and Sustainability Rules, and whether football is becoming too driven by money. In We Need To Talk About, the pair tackle a series of talking points from across the football world. Should pre season friendlies use common sense instead of strict red card laws? Was Kevin Danso's dismissal in Tottenham Hotspur's meeting with Chelsea the right decision? They also discuss the turmoil surrounding the Italian national team, Roberto Mancini's remarkable return, Andrea Pirlo's failed appointment, Paolo Maldini's resignation and what comes next for one of international football's traditional powerhouses. Martin's Letter From The Gantry marks the 60th anniversary of England's 1966 FIFA World Cup triumph, as Martin shares his personal memories of watching Alf Ramsey's side become world champions. From standing behind the goal at Wembley to recalling Jimmy Greaves, Geoff Hurst, Roger Hunt, Bobby Moore, Nobby Stiles and the famous Boys of '66, Martin paints a vivid picture of one of the most significant moments in English sporting history. He also reflects on what England's victory meant to the country, why Roger Hunt deserves greater recognition, and how quickly football returned to normal when the new league season began just weeks later. The podcast also pays tribute to Franco Baresi, one of football's greatest ever defenders. Martin and Neil remember the legendary AC Milan and Italy captain, reflecting on his leadership, elegance, longevity and why many still regard him as one of the finest defenders the game has ever produced. Finally, in What's Next and What's Gone, the pair preview the opening weekend of the new Premier League season in a unique way. Using Martin's memories from decades behind the microphone alongside Neil's press conference style questions, they revisit classic fixtures, legendary players and historic moments while looking ahead to another fascinating campaign. A packed episode full of football history, Premier League debate, transfer discussion, tactical insight and the unique stories that only Martin Tyler can tell. #PremierLeague #MartinTyler #FootballPodcast #PreSeason #TransferNews #PremierLeagueTransfers #TheJoyOfFootball #Soccer #EnglishFootball #PremierLeagueHistory #Football Hosted by The Revive Lounge Ltd UCsdye1hUxP4xhgBx9zvuSjg Subscribe to https://youtube.com/@TheReviveLounge?si=L5ddzrJrtSmErtJ5 Support the Pod https://patreon.com/TheJoysofFootballPodcast?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink Read us on Substack https://martintylerandneilbarnett.substack.com/ Follow our Twitter https://x.com/TheJOF Follow our Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/@joy_of_football_pod?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc Follow our Instagram https://https://www.instagram.com/joy_of_football_pod/ Contact us via: therevivelounge@gmail.com Music by Arron Clague - https://www.instagram.com/arronclague?igsh=aHg1bjQ3OHpmaXIz Intro Sequence by Wellong Sadewo (wells.illustration): https://www.instagram.com/wells.illustration/ A massive thank you to our Patreon Supporters: Nick Parmenter Hillary Abbott Daniel Butigan Tommy Mck Katie Watson Nathan A Learn more about your ad choices.

"He picked meaning over transactional maximization. And because of this, Francesco Totti has become the stuff of legend." — Nicky Billou Francesco Totti could have left for Real Madrid. He could have taken the money from AC Milan or Manchester United. He chose Rome instead — every time, for 25 years — and became something no amount of trophy-chasing could have made him: a legend inseparable from the city itself. Nicky draws on Totti's story to make a case that runs deeper than football. In an era that rewards mobility — in sport, in business, in life — choosing full, permanent commitment to one thing is rare. Rarer still is doing it when the alternatives are genuinely better by most measures. Totti had those alternatives. He said no. And the Stadio Olimpico wept when he played his final match. The lesson Nicky draws is clean and direct: the best of you is the most loyal part of you. That is not an argument against opportunity — it's an argument for knowing what you stand for and refusing to let transactionality make that decision for you.

Non è semplice comunicare la perdita di un battito del nostro cuore, di uno dei respiri della nostra anima.Ma tutto il Milan e tutti i Milanisti devono provare ad essere all'altezza di Franco Baresi, bisogna farsi forza e raccogliere tutte le energie utili, pur fra le lacrime e la commozione di un momento che pesa tantissimo. Franco ci ha lasciati, dopo averci regalato solo pochi mesi fa l'ultima grande, orgogliosa immagine di sé in uno stadio gremito, collegato con tutto il mondo, per una cerimonia inaugurale delle Olimpiadi invernali milanesi che lui ha reso storica.Abbracciamo tutti uniti il ricordo gigantesco di Franco, sapendo che ci terrà sempre per mano, e che ci darà una motivazione in più per ogni istante della nostra vita rossonera.Per sempre. Perché Baresi è per sempre.
#celticfc #celticsoul #podcastFollow Vicenç Clos Balcells on Instagram & Twitter @vclosbfutopinionsBarcelona based journalist Vicenç Clos Balcells joins More than 90 Minutes Editor to chat about the arrival of Kasper Høgh's to Celtic after his transfer from Bodø/Glimt.Vicenç has followed Høgh's development as a striker, he talks about the reasons why Celtic have decided to invest so heavily in him. He provides listeners with an in-depth understanding of his playing style, his strengths, and whether he has what it takes to succeed in Scottish football.He believes he is one of the most effective penalty-box strikers to emerge from Scandinavian football in recent years. While he is not a forward who dominates matches through his involvement in build-up play, he is exceptionally opportunistic in front of goal. His greatest strength is his instinct inside the penalty area, although he also possesses a strong ability to play with his back to goal and bring teammates into the game.They chat about his outstanding performances in European competitions. Høgh proved that he can deliver against top-level opposition, not only in the UEFA Champions League but especially in the UEFA Europa League, where he finished as the competition's top scorer. Those performances were a major factor in attracting interest from clubs across Europe and ultimately convincing Celtic to make such a significant financial investment.Vicenç talks about transfers into a broader context by analysing how players leaving Bodø/Glimt have performed elsewhere. Footballers such as Patrick Berg at Lens or Jens Petter Hauge during his spell at AC Milan, Eintracht Frankfurt and KAA Gent. They have experienced mixed fortunes after leaving Norway. He believes this is a particularly relevant angle given the sizeable fee Celtic have paid for Høgh, as it raises the question of whether he can become the exception and successfully replicate his Bodø/Glimt form at a bigger club.Please Subscribe to our independent Celtic Fan YouTube ChannelCeltic Fanzine TV / celticfanzinetv– Hit the Alarm so you never miss an episode, Leave a Commentand Please share.The Podcast is available on Audio across all platforms includingSpotify & Apple.

Red, White & Blues FC | 4:45 AM Football, a Set-Piece Guru, and a Plan to Get a New GoalkeeperChelsea are in Sydney, we are not waking up for it, and Xabi Alonso just gave us a reason to root against our own back line.Preseason is here, which means Chelsea are on the other side of the planet playing Western Sydney Wanderers at 4:45 in the morning our time. We open by loudly committing to live stream it and then immediately un-committing, which tells you most of what you need to know about how much stock we put in the Sydney Super Cup. But underneath the jokes there's actually a bit of optimism creeping in this year — a training session that looked like real coaching, a new set-piece coach who might be the best in the business, and a manager saying things a manager is supposed to say. Then there's the goalkeeper situation, where we land on a plan so stupid it might work.Australia at 4:45 AM, and Why We're Even ThereThe tour is Sydney (Western Sydney Wanderers, then Tottenham), Hong Kong, Jakarta, and Malaysia, with Juventus and AC Milan in there too, a Real Sociedad friendly at Stamford Bridge on August 15, and then the season opener away at Fulham because we are apparently never allowed a home opener. Jason's read: this is a cash grab with terrible timing, and if BlueCo would just sell the front of the shirt — four years running now — maybe we wouldn't need to be chasing the Australian and Southeast Asian markets at dawn. Daniel's more forgiving: let the boys go on tour, do some PR, build rapport with a new manager. We check the weather in all four cities like the professionals we are. We also agree that a Tottenham derby in Sydney is not a derby, because nobody out there is going to hate anybody properly.Preseason Expectations: Please Just Don't Get HurtJason's forecast is bleak and specific — one to five players will get injured, they'll be pivotal, and the transfer strategy hasn't accounted for it, because it never does. Daniel finds the silver lining: minutes for the academy lads, Levi Colwill getting his legs back, Cole Palmer maybe getting going, and Estêvão on the pitch. We're missing Caicedo, possibly Enzo, Reece James, Morgan Rogers, and Geovany Quenda, which limits what anyone can actually learn. The bar is simple: don't lose to Western Sydney Wanderers, don't lose to the side in Jakarta. Lose to Tottenham, Juventus, or Milan and fine, we're learning a new system. And if there is one prayer we're saying out loud, it's that Estêvão comes home in one piece.Austin MacPhee Is Here and He's a Glorious BastardThe genuine highlight. Chelsea have hired Austin MacPhee from Aston Villa, the Scottish set-piece specialist who also works with the Portugal national team, whose Villa side outscored every club in Europe's top five leagues from set pieces in 23/24 and finished joint-top with Arsenal in the Premier League last season — the difference being Arsenal shat their way to it and MacPhee does it properly. If this podcast has one recurring complaint over four years, it's Chelsea set pieces. We once lost our minds over a short corner under Pochettino. Hiring an actual set-piece guru, rather than another motivational coach imported to install a “winning mentality,” is the single clearest sign that somebody at the club is taking this seriously. Daniel is now on a mission to find MacPhee's Twitter, ask him his favorite scotch, and get him on the show. Austin, if you're listening: there's also Miller Lite, and you look like a Miller Lite guy.The Goalkeeper Plan (Root Against Your Own Defense)Xabi Alonso has said everything is open, every position, and per Ben Jacobs on the CFC Hub he's asked the club for time to assess the keepers in preseason before making a recommendation. Which leads Daniel to the big-brain question: shouldn't we then want to ship a load of goals in Australia? Jason is fully on board — a preseason loss tells you nothing about the club, but it tells you plenty about the goalkeeper. So, Levi and Josh, do us a solid and let a few in. Underneath the bit is a real argument we go back and forth on. Robert Sánchez is a genuinely excellent shot-stopper — 95 saves, nine clean sheets, statistically a better shot-stopper than Mike Maignan, in a harder league — and the 47 goals conceded says as much about Wesley Fofana's pace, Tosin's one-v-one defending, and Mamadou Sarr as it does about him. But he can't distribute, he can't play with his feet, and every manager keeps asking him to do exactly that. There's a £60m keeper with a release clause sitting there in Diogo Costa who does both. Pay it, keep Penders, and let us stop holding our breath every time the ball rolls back.Estêvão vs. Yamal, and the Photo We Refuse to BelieveWe close on the good stuff. Alonso on Estêvão: “plays with the confidence of someone who's been in Europe for years — age means nothing when the talent is that special.” We both think this is his breakout year and the hype only grows. Jason rates him above Lamine Yamal for one reason: humility. The only off-pitch photos of Estêvão are of him in church; Yamal's are from the club. Not a moral judgment, just a pattern — Messi didn't live that way, Ronaldo didn't live that way, and Daniel's comparison point is Neymar, all that talent shadowed by off-pitch noise and injuries. And speaking of Messi, we are not letting go of the bathtub photo. Why did nobody see that image until the World Cup? We're calling AI, we're calling gaslight, and we're calling for a whole midweek episode of football conspiracy theories where we take turns dragging each other down the rabbit hole.

Germania 2006, Mondiale azzurro dal cuore rossonero. Lippi voleva Vieri, ma un ginocchio ko a Monaco lascia il posto a Inzaghi, che da Berlino manda agli amici via sms la prima foto con la Coppa. In Finale contro la Francia ci sono Gattuso e Pirlo, in panchina Gilardino, decisivo con l'assist a Del Piero nel 2-0 alla Germania a Dortmund. Nesta, invece, esce ancora una volta anzitempo: dopo 1998 e 2002, l'adduttore lo tradisce contro la Repubblica Ceca. Sullo sfondo, il ritiro-bunker di Coverciano ai tempi di Calciopoli, trasformato da Lippi in benzina per il trionfo.
