The Soccer Sharps return to recap another wild weekend in the Premier League. Gameweek 2 saw Liverpool struggle again for three points while Manchester United pasted Ipswich Town. Chelsea won a shootout with Brighton at Stamford Bridge, and while Coventry City saw another defeat without scoring a goal, they sit above 20th placed Spurs in the table. Devin and Jordan get stuck into all of it before taking a look at action on the continent, where Real Madrid and Bayern Munich sit top of their respective leagues while PSG remain winless. 00:00 Introduction 00:45 Manchester United vs Ipswich Town 04:48 Chelsea vs Brighton 09:38 Fabian Hürzeler's Hair 13:58 What's Wrong with Spurs? 17:07 Punchable Managers 18:12 What's Wrong with Liverpool? 24:04 Ndiaye for Richarlison? 25:40 Coventry City vs Hull City 26:55 Bayern and Real are Top 28:27 Overreactions FIND US ON YOUTUBE JOIN OUR DISCORD SERVER EMAIL US FOLLOW US ON SOCIALS: X: @TheSoccerSharps TikTok: thesoccersharps Instagram: @TheSoccerSharps Bluesky: @thesoccersharps.bsky.social The Soccer Sharps podcast is part of The Hooligan Soccer Network.

The Bundesliga is one of the best leagues to bet on when it comes to individual matches but probably the worst in terms of an outright for the season - when we consider how few markets there are available, compared to some of the other top European leagues. You've only got a handful to go at and two of those have a clear favourite unlikely to be beaten. Bayern Munich are as short as 1/10 in places to lift yet another Bundesliga title, with star striker Harry Kane in at 2/5 with the those bookies who are offering a top goalscorer market.Billi does what he can with what he has on offer, breaking down all of the available futures markets, before moving into to covering selected games from Matchday 1. Bayern Munich kick off the season tonight at home to Stuttgart. Bayern won the Bundesliga by 16 points last season, scoring a whopping 122 goals in their 34 matches, and Vincent Kompany's side are unlikely to take their foot off the gas as they chase glory at home and abroad.They have already beaten Borussia Dortmund 2-1 in the German Super Cup, but opening league opponents Stuttgart will be encouraged by the fact the champions kept just four clean sheets in their final 19 Bundesliga games last term.

It's not exactly a hot take to suggest Bayern Munich might come away as Bundesliga champions this season, and this year certainly follows that same pattern. With Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen both in transition, might this be the season where Vincent Kompany's side surpass even the lofty heights of Pep Guardiola's time at the club?Kevin Hatchard makes his debut on the show to discuss that prospect. Plus, Donyell Malen and Paulo Dybala link up three times to lead Roma to a 4-0 thrashing of Fiorentina. Can Dybalen, as some are calling them, take them to Scudetto contention? And Fenerbahçe reach the Champions League for the first time in nearly two decades. Just how significant is that for the Süper Lig?Ask us a question on X, Instagram and TikTok, and email us here: otc@footballramble.com.For ad-free shows, head over to our Patreon and subscribe: patreon.com/footballramble.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

While the so-called 'traditional curtain-raiser' may not get much respect in England, in Germany it carries much more weight. This season, the German Supercup was a trophy that both Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund wanted to win.

Bayern Munich lifted the Franz Beckenbauer Supercup after surviving Borussia Dortmund's fierce second-half response. Michael Olise created Nathaniel Brown's debut goal before punishing a midfield turnover to make it 2–0.

LAFC+ Podcast Episode 107 is here as Dave Denholm and Mario Ruiz react to LAFC's signing of Armindo Sieb from Bayern Munich and break down what kind of player Black & Gold fans can expect. The guys also recap LAFC's performance against Querétaro and look back at the team's run through Phase One of the Leagues Cup. Plus, Dave and Mario turn their attention back to MLS play with a preview of LAFC's showdown against San Diego FC this weekend.
We go live to track the final Leagues Cup results and react as our hopes fade, then pivot to LAFC's new signing Armindo Sieb, a 23-year-old striker from the Bayern Munich system (recently with Mainz) on a long-term deal. We break down why this kind of move fits MLS roster constraints, how the Bayern partnership can help with scouting intel, and what we see in Sieb's highlight reel—powerful finishing, comfort on the ball, and a “tweener” profile who could play as a support striker or alongside Son. Then we preview Saturday's home match vs San Diego, discussing their drop to 13th in the West, their possession-heavy style, LAFC's transition advantage, and rotation choices with a brutal August schedule. We close with listener questions, rivalry talk, and Bet It and Forget It predictions.00:00 Dog Joins the Show00:23 Live Preview Setup01:16 Leagues Cup Scoreboard Watch02:41 Banter and Chat Format04:03 Leagues Cup Fate Debate05:39 New Signing Introduced08:08 Why This Transfer Makes Sense19:33 Highlight Reel Breakdown30:30 Leagues Cup Ends and Refocus31:34 San Diego Matchup Tactics35:19 Brutal August Schedule and Rotation36:35 Rotation Strategy Debate38:52 San Diego Rivalry Stakes39:51 Crowd Trouble Memories40:35 Questions and Subscriber Push41:43 Bayern Partnership Explained47:55 Transfer Window Outlook50:05 MLS Calendar and Trophy Talk53:04 Bet It and Forget It55:08 Blood Types and SignoffJoin our Patreon and help us keep making this show.Merch and more at HappyFootSadFootPod.comYouTube: @happyfootsadfoot Twitter: @HaFoSaFoInstagram: @happyfootsadfootTikTok: @happyfootsadfoot Hosted on Acast.

Matt Davies is joined by Dan Cook and Paul Morley for a transfer heavy show as Nottingham Forest are linked with a major transfer move. Multiple outlets now say Manchester City midfielder Tijjani Reijnders is a £55m target. We discuss the pros and cons of a move for the 28-year-old, who is a top class player but is reportedly paid £230,000 a week. We also look at a Daily Mail report saying Bayern Munich have an interest in Morgan Gibbs-White if Michael Olise leaves and we'll mention the latest on Ousmane Diomande. Meanwhile we'll also discuss reports linking Forest with Bayer Leverkusen's Christian Kofane and Gustavo Puerta of Racing Santander. Finally, there is an update on Feyenoord's Givairo Read and it's potentially a positive one. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Try Oxford Natural, Use Code FFTV For Up to 70% Off! https://oxfordnatural.com/fftv/ In this video, Wolfie dives deep into the swirling transfer speculation surrounding Nottingham Forest star Morgan Gibbs-White, breaking down what a recent agent change actually means for his future at the City Ground. Amid heavy links to Premier League heavyweights like Manchester United and Chelsea—as well as previous interest from top European clubs like Bayern Munich—rumours have naturally reached boiling point over whether the playmaker is angling for a blockbuster exit. Wolfie separates the sensationalist headlines from reality, examining whether this behind-the-scenes shift in representation signals an imminent departure or simply standard career management for one of England's brightest midfield talents. Watch as we unpack the full context of Gibbs-White's contractual situation at Nottingham Forest, looking closely at how the club's firm stance and his current valuation impact any potential big-money move.

Miro Gladovic's journey in sport is anything but ordinary. Born and raised in Melbourne, Australia, he began as a professional soccer goalkeeper before his playing career ended prematurely — leading him to reinvent himself in a way few have. In 1997 he became Australia's first accredited FIFA Players' Agent, and at the time the youngest in the world, going on to broker international transfer deals worth tens of millions of dollars and represent players at clubs like FC Barcelona and Bayern Munich. Since then, Miro has moved into coaching, working within the youth systems of clubs including Tampa Bay United and the New York Red Bulls, and most recently at the college level in the United States. That wealth of experience is now channeled into SoccerFamilyAgent.com — a platform built specifically for families of young soccer players, helping them understand the recruitment world, avoid common pitfalls, and give their children the best possible chance at a professional career. In this episode, Miro brings a rare perspective — player, agent, and coach — to the conversation about what youth soccer families really need to know, and how parents can best support their child's journey without getting in the way of it.

Le Paris Saint-Germain est-il en train de construire la prochaine grande dynastie du football européen ? Après avoir remporté sa première Ligue des champions en 2025, le PSG a réussi l'exploit de conserver son titre en 2026. Deux Ligues des champions consécutives, un collectif extrêmement fort, un effectif encore très jeune et une identité de jeu parfaitement installée par Luis Enrique : le règne européen de Paris ne fait-il que commencer ? Dans cette émission de Paris Central, nos chroniqueurs se demandent si le PSG possède toutes les qualités nécessaires pour dominer durablement l'Europe et devenir une véritable dynastie. Au programme : ⚽ Comment le PSG est devenu double champion d'Europe ⚽ Pourquoi le projet de Luis Enrique fonctionne aussi bien ⚽ Le PSG possède-t-il le meilleur collectif européen ? ⚽ Désiré Doué peut-il devenir le nouveau visage du club ? ⚽ Vitinha et João Neves peuvent-ils dominer le milieu européen ? ⚽ Ousmane Dembélé peut-il continuer à porter l'attaque parisienne ? ⚽ Le PSG peut-il gagner une troisième Ligue des champions consécutive ? ⚽ Quels clubs peuvent réellement mettre fin au règne parisien ? ⚽ Paris peut-il dominer le football européen pendant cinq ans ? Le PSG est seulement le deuxième club à avoir remporté deux Ligues des champions consécutives dans l'ère moderne de la compétition. Cette performance place désormais Paris dans une nouvelle dimension. Mais ce qui rend ce projet encore plus impressionnant, c'est l'âge de l'effectif. Désiré Doué, João Neves, Bradley Barcola, Nuno Mendes, Willian Pacho et plusieurs autres cadres possèdent encore une importante marge de progression. Le PSG ne dépend plus uniquement d'une accumulation de superstars. Luis Enrique a construit une équipe collective, capable de presser, de contrôler le ballon, de défendre ensemble et de faire évoluer plusieurs joueurs dans différentes positions. Paris possède désormais une identité, une continuité sportive et une expérience européenne que le club recherchait depuis des années. Mais deux Ligues des champions suffisent-elles pour parler de dynastie ? Le PSG devra conserver sa motivation, renouveler son effectif au bon moment, gérer les ambitions individuelles et continuer à évoluer tactiquement. Tous les grands clubs européens chercheront désormais à faire tomber le double champion en titre. Le Real Madrid, le FC Barcelone, Arsenal, Manchester City, le Bayern Munich et les autres prétendants peuvent-ils réellement arrêter Paris ? Donnez votre avis dans les commentaires : Le PSG est-il déjà la meilleure équipe d'Europe ? Cette équipe peut-elle remporter une troisième Ligue des champions ? Luis Enrique est-il le meilleur entraîneur du monde ? Quel joueur doit devenir le nouveau visage du projet parisien ? Combien de Ligues des champions ce groupe peut-il gagner ?

Aston Villa's summer took another turn this week: Morgan Rogers completed a British-record £117m move to Chelsea rather than Arsenal, João Gomes' switch from Wolves was announced, while João Palhinha's loan from Bayern Munich is less straightforward than it looked.This week's episode goes back over the week that was and explains why Chelsea, not Arsenal, always made more sense once the pieces were on the table — Johan Manzambi's arrival, the timing of the announcement, and what it signalled about who Villa expected to be negotiating with. There's a breakdown of João Gomes' fit alongside Boubacar Kamara, an honest look at where the Palhinha deal actually stands, and the developing left-back competition between Pervis Estupiñán and Ian Maatsen.There's also a proper explanation of Squad Cost Ratio, the rule that has replaced PSR this season, and why it changes the calculation on every sale Villa make from here.

Bayern Munich CMO Rouven Kasper goes Inside the ICE House to discuss the club's evolution from a German powerhouse into one of the world's most recognizable sports brands. He explains how Bayern balances its traditional “Mia San Mia” identity with a localized approach to engaging fans across the U.S., Asia and other growth markets. Kasper also shares insights on player branding, long-term sponsorship strategy and the role authenticity plays in building lasting global relationships. He discusses how digital platforms, content creation and AI are transforming the fan experience and helping clubs connect with new generations of supporters.
We break down the tactical predictions and statistical golden boot races unfiltered:France vs. Morocco (Prediction: 3-1 France): We expect a beautifully open, front-foot attacking spectacle in Boston. While Morocco's transitional counter-attacks can easily hurt teams out wide, Achraf Hakimi's aggressive overlaps will invite devastating space for Bradley Barcola, Michael Olise, and Kylian Mbappé on the break. We review the massive boost for Walid Regragui as newly signed Bayern Munich midfielder Ismael Saibari's hamstring injury appears far less severe than first feared.Spain vs. Belgium (Prediction: 2-0 Spain): Luis de la Fuente's squad will comfortably coast into the semifinals. Spain's defensive line has been an impenetrable fortress, remaining the only team all tournament to maintain a flawless clean sheet record. With Belgium heavily unbalanced upfront, low on winger depth, and managing a knock to Djed Spence, Domenico Tedesco will be forced into a defensive 4-5-1 block to pray for a penalty lottery.Argentina vs. Switzerland (Prediction: 2-1 Argentina): Lionel Scaloni's defending champions have heavily ridden their luck, looking defensively lax and chaotic against Cape Verde and Egypt. If core Swiss speedsters like Dan Ndoye and Johan Manzambi can recover full fitness, Switzerland's disciplined structure can easily punish Argentina on the counter. However, Lionel Messi's unmatched quality to drop deep and play for the collective unit will just edge the tie.⏱️ MID-SHOW HYDRATION BREAK
30 years ago – in July 1996 - the Lisbon Lions stand was opened at Celtic Park, continuing the ground's redevelopment.There are four stands at Celtic Park: the main stand, North Stand, Lisbon Lions stand and Jock Stein stand. Each time one these has been opened, matches have been held to celebrate this.The original Celtic Park opened in 1888 before 1892 when the Bhoys moved the short distance to the second site, which remains the location where the Celts play.Over the years, the look of this venue has changed significantly, with many stands and structures being built and then knocked down, and in the case of the original pavilion, burned down as happened in 1929.If looking at the current Parkhead, the history of this can be traced back to 1971, when the main stand was built, although the foundations of this are much older.The oldest of Celtic's stands is the main stand. Work on this began in 1970 and was eventually completed in 1971. It ran behind schedule which led to one very strange scenario.By 14 August 1971, the League Cup campaign had begun but Celtic could not yet play at home due to the building works. This meant that their match versus Rangers had to be played at Ibrox – but with Celtic as the home team, and Celtic season tickets being valid!11 days later, the main stand was finally ready for use. In terms of opening games for this new facility, there are two relevant fixtures. The first of these came in the League Cup on 25 August. Morton travelled to Celtic Park and the main stand was now open for fans.To say the least, this was a less than auspicious occasion to mark the stand's maiden game. Despite getting a penalty – which was missed by Kenny Dalglish – the Celts fell to a 1-0 defeat. Although Celtic still made it through to the final, they famously lost 4-1 to Partick Thistle.However, this Morton fixture was not the main stand's official opening event. Instead, that took place a week when Nacional from Uruguay were the glamour opponents invited to mark the occasion.60,000 supporters were in Celtic Park, with the main stand being ticket-only and sold out. They watched on as Celtic legend Jimmy McGrory – the club's all-time top scorer and former manager – performed the official ceremony.This was a much brighter moment as the Hoops won 3-0 to officially christen the new stand with victory. Although there were also complaints from the Scottish League who were upset at the game being played during the season, despite the Scottish FA agreeing to this.In the following decades, little major reconstruction work took place at Celtic Park. By the early-1990s, this left the club facing a major problem. The Hillsborough tragedy had led to a demand that all football stadiums be all-seated.In this era, Celtic faced major financial problems and simply did not have the money to build such a venue. Pipe dreams of moving to Cambuslang soon disappeared. Eventually, this led to Fergus McCann's takeover, after which there was rapid building progress at Celtic Park.In the 1994-95 season, the Bhoys vacated their usual home and instead played at Hampden. Whilst they were away, Celtic Park was razed to the ground, except for the main stand. Building work soon followed at a cost of £17 million.In place of the old Jungle section of the ground, a massive new North Stand was built. Quite simply, this towered over what had been the former ground. Also, with seats for 27,000 supporters, this was one of the biggest stands in Britain.By 1995, everything looked brighter again for Celtic. The takeover had long since been completed, the Bhoys had held a successful share issue to raise much needed funds and, most importantly, the club's first silverware since 1989 sat in the Parkhead trophy room.In addition, the North Stand was now finished and ready for an official opening. On a gala day on 5 August 1995, fans got their first experience of this new venue.A sell-out crowd turned up in Glasgow's east end, with the brilliant sunshine capturing the general mood of optimism. Rod Stewart did the official honours at the ribbon-cutting to open the North Stand, before a friendly match was held.Celtic's opponents were Newcastle United, with a team full of stars including David Ginola and Peter Beardsley. They all helped entertain the supporters in a 1-1 draw. John Collins got the first goal in front of the new stand, thanks to a 30th minute penalty, before Les Ferdinand's second half equaliser proved to be the last scoring of the match.Now that one part of Fergus McCann's new construction was complete, it would not be long before more building work took place. Behind the west stand – or old Celtic end – a temporary stand was erected, but this was only a short-term solution.One year on, there was yet another new stand to be opened. And like in 1971, there were two relevant matches when it came to doing this.Throughout the 1995-96 season, more building work had taken place at the east end of the ground, on the site of what had previously been referred to as the ‘Rangers end'. Now this stand was complete and ready for action.On 31 July 1996, another English team made their way north of the border. This time it was Arsenal's turn to experience the new Celtic Park, but it was also the first time for Celtic fans too.Another sell-out crowd – this time with 47,300 fans – were in the ground. They witnessed a 2-1 win for the home side. In fact, Arsenal led for most of the match thanks to a Lee Dixon goal, but two very late strikes from Simon Donnelly and Phil O'Donnell ensured a green-and-white win.Despite Arsenal being high-profile visitors, this match was not the official opening of the stand. Instead, this took place a few days later.On 3 August 1996, Billy Connolly this time was given the opening honours. Wearing a standout green suit, the Glasgow comedian officially opened the new east stand, before a clash of the hoops where Celtic played Sporting Lisbon.This match showed the best and worst of Celtic in this era. The Celts looked good going forward and enjoyed a two-goal advantage thanks to goals from Jorge Cadete – playing against his old club – and Simon Donnelly.However, with ten minutes remaining, this good work was undone in little more than a minute. As the clock struck 80, Luis Filipe halved the deficit. And very shortly after this, the unfortunate John Hughes knocked into his own net, to seal a 2-2 draw.In fact, you can argue that this stand has had three official openings. The first two came in 1996 when the building work was first done. The next happened four years later, but this time without any building changes.Instead, the event in the year 2000 concerned a change of name. The stand was simply referred to as the east stand, although some fans referred to it using the old ‘Rangers end' adage. But now Celtic wanted to use the venue to honour the club's greatest side.It was agreed that the east stand would be officially christened the ‘Lisbon Lions' stand in celebration of all those players who contributed to European Cup glory in 1967. This was in response to a public vote in the choice of name, with Fergus McCann being runner-up.On 1 February 2000, Bayern Munich came to Celtic Park. In front of a less than full Celtic Park, the Germans claimed a 2-1 victory. In truth, it was an unimportant game, and it was one that almost did not happen.The previous Saturday, high winds had damaged some of the stadium, including the new stand. This had forced the postponement of Celtic's Scottish Cup clash with Inverness Caledonian Thistle. The weather eventually calmed down enough to fix the roof and let the Bayern game go ahead.But, of course, when it came to replay the Scottish Cup tie, the Celts were left wishing that the weather had again stopped this. Famously, ‘Super Caley went ballistic' and knocked the hoops out of the cup, considered to be one of Celtic's worst ever results.In fact, when the Lisbon Lions stand received its official name, the full ground was now complete. After the east stand was finished in 1996, attentions turned to adding the final piece of the Celtic Park jigsaw.Where the temporary stand had stood at the west end of the ground, construction began. By 1998, this was finished and ready to be opened for fans to use. The completed 60,000 stadium was an impressive sight; the biggest football ground in Scotland.Once more, two matches were involved in the opening of this new stand. On the face of it, the first game played in front of fans should have been a major moment. As well as a fully rebuilt stadium, the Celts were in the qualifiers of the Champions League for the first time since it was rebranded from the European Cup.On 22 July 1998, Dublin side St Patrick's Athletic came to Celtic Park. 56,864 were in the ground. They watched an utterly lacklustre match which ended 0-0. There were even boos as the team left the pitch at full-time, although Celtic did at least go on to win the second leg.This disappointing fixture was not the official opening though. Instead, that took place just over two weeks later. Liverpool were the latest team from England to open a Celtic Park stand.Before the match began, there was a poignant ceremony. This latest stand was to be named after Jock Stein, the man who had led Celtic to Europe's pinnacle. His wife Jean opened the stand, and she was joined by most of the Lisbon Lions, who showed off their famous trophy.This time it was a sell-out and 59,727 supporters crammed into the ground, a sight which has become common in the years since. They did not get to cheer a goal as the Merseyside men claimed a 1-0 win, but Celtic knew they were on the upward track.The changing face of Celtic Park has been truly remarkable, including the surrounding areas. For now, the ground has a fixed feel to it although there are always demands from supporters for further changes, including another tier being added to the main stand.In addition, there are regular fan discussions about whether more names should be added to the ground; figures such as Brother Walfrid or Fergus McCann are usually promoted in relation to this.Whichever stand you sit in at Celtic Park, it is one that has been witness to so many memorable moments in the club's history. The club's home since 1892, it's one place that you know where there's going to be a show.Enjoy…Apple podcastsSpotifyAmazonPlayer.fmSpreakerAudioboomYoutube This is a public episode.

Julian Nagelsmann has resigned as Germany's national team coach, just days after their humiliating World Cup exit against Paraguay — and Manu & Stefan break down exactly how it all fell apart. In this episode, the guys dig into the DFB meeting in Frankfurt that led to Nagelsmann's resignation, why stepping down (rather than getting fired) was the smart financial move, and the wild 180-degree turnaround from his post-Paraguay press conference where he insisted he was staying until Euro 2028. They trace the arc of his career — from wonderkid at Hoffenheim and RB Leipzig, to Bayern Munich, to the German national team — and ask the tough question: did Nagelsmann ever actually have the players, or the personality, to succeed at this level? From designer outfits to tactical inflexibility to simply not knowing which players were even eligible to play for Germany, nothing is off limits. Plus: why this might be the least talented "player pool" in German football in over 15 years, what Nagelsmann needs to do to rebuild his reputation, and why Manu is (mostly) resisting the urge to say "I told you so."

After hosting Henderson's former teammate Thiago at the villa, Rio reveals why his inclusion is so important for Tuchel and the other members of the team. As the tournament starts hotting up with the knockout rounds, Rio discusses why this current French side remind him of Brazil in 2002 and how the switch from group stage games to knockout matches affect players' mentalities. The trio review their Airbnb experience of horse riding through the Malibu hills and laugh at Joel's unusual tactics of settling his horse down and tease the fact that another guest is coming to stay with Rio at the villa.Brought to you in partnership with Airbnb Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to the Blood Red Podcast!
The World Cup is just a week away and to mark the occasion, The Run-Through invited US Men's Soccer Team player Chris Richards on the podcast. Vogue fútbol fiends Taylor Antrim and Alyssa Hardy sit down with the young defender to talk about the journey to his first World Cup. Richards grew up in Hoover, Alabama, a town where American football reigns supreme. “Everybody knew everybody,” he explains, “and a lot of the kids that played soccer were also the kicker for the football team.” Soccer was hardly deemed a viable option. “I had teachers laugh at me when I told them I wanna do this for a living,” Richards tells the podcast, “But I just kept my head down and decided I wanted to prove them wrong. And I think I've done pretty well at that.”Fresh off an ankle injury, Richards is busy doing strength exercises and massaging the swelling down. He'll be sitting out the final friendlies match against Germany this weekend but is planning to play once the World Cup officially begins next week. “It feels like everybody's still kind of holding their breath.”They also chat about finding community through his time playing for Bayern Munich and Crystal Palace. “London is a beautiful place to find yourself. [South London] reminded me a lot of home—it's very hardworking and there are tons of cultures that I've been really excited to dive into.” The development of his personal style he also credits to his time abroad, being inspired by the influences of his teammates. Also on the episode, Chloe and Chioma catch up after some time apart. For the first time, Chloe served on the committee for the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund and had a part in determining the ten finalists. Chioma tells Chloe all about her time at the three-day British Vogue Wellness Retreat at Estelle Manor in the English countryside. Chioma, a wellness enthusiast, was in her happy place and where she got to participate in conversations around women's health and also activities like axe throwing and archery. Other important news out of England this week was the wedding of Dua Lipa and Callum Turner at Marylebone Town Hall—at the same location where Chioma's parents wed many years ago! And if things couldn't get more exciting, Chioma met one of her all time favorite ladies at SXSW London: the Michelle Obama!The Run-Through with Vogue is your go-to podcast where fashion meets culture.

The panel return on this edition to discuss Tottenham Hotspur closing in on the signings of Marcos Senesi and Andy Robertson, with both deals now agreed in principle as Roberto De Zerbi's rebuild gathers pace in North London. We also reflect on the news that Tottenham Hotspur have ‘pulled out' of the race to sign Joao Palhinha. Spurs' buy option expires on Monday, and Sporting CP are moving ahead with the deal. Talks with Bayern Munich are expected to follow. Palhinha impressed on loan at Spurs and has expressed a desire to stay, with the London club holding a €30 million purchase option. Sporting want to bring the 30-year-old back to Lisbon, where he began his career. The midfielder is willing to take a significant pay cut to rejoin his boyhood club, and a broad understanding with the player is said to be in place. A new loan move for Luka Vuskovic to Hamburger SV is apparently not a current option avaliable. The Croatian has two options: Long-term contract extension with high salary. A move to one of the biggest clubs in Europe. Talks are ongoing over the player's future. Luka Vuskovic has revealed his Tottenham future will not be decided until after the World Cup. We discuss what the best next step is for the youngster. Tottenham Hotspur are expected to strengthen their attack this summer, and a new report suggests that Marcus Rashford could become an option. Spurs have reportedly shown interest in signing Marcus Rashford this summer after a 28-goal contribution season with Barcelona, during which he scored 14 goals and provided 14 assists. We debate whether the Club could entice him into coming to the club and whether Spurs can get the best out of him. Finally we close on the news that Spurs have launched an internal review into last season. An internal review has been ongoing since the appointment of Dan Lewindon as Performance Director from Manchester City. This comes after he found significant challenges within Spurs. He joined the Club one day before Thomas Frank was sacked. We reflect on whether the Club will take the learnings from last season and put them into action in both the upcoming window in addition to decisions made both off/on the pitch.
