From “back in my day” logic to shameless club bias, former footballers dominate football coverage — but should they? In this episode, James takes Dan back to school to question whether playing experience alone still qualifies ex-pros to analyse today's game. As tactics evolve and the context changes, the lads unpack why so much analysis feels outdated, biased, or just plain wrong. Perhaps the game has moved on without them, alright?!

In this episode we sit down with Carl McCluskey, the quietly obsessive mastermind behind Crisp, the cult London pizzeria that has gone from a backstreet Hammersmith pub to one of the most sought after tables in the city. Carl walks us through the whirlwind first three weeks of his new Marlborough site and the sheer graft behind bringing a tiny pop up operation into a polished, high pressure restaurant setting. From staff struggles and stretching stations held together with rope to finally stepping into a dream kitchen, it is a rare look at the leap from local hero to full scale powerhouse.Carl breaks down the craft behind his pizzas, including the infamous Vecna, born by accident during a chaotic Halloween party when he grabbed hot honey and burrata as a last minute experiment. He shares the Reddit conspiracies about his secret hydration levels, the ongoing myth that his dough sits in trays, and why he refuses to reveal the tiny tweaks that make Crisp different. He explains how his cousin Pedro became the best oven man in the world, how the team makes up to forty litres of hot honey a week, and why scaling too fast would destroy the magic.The conversation turns to the business side, where Carl opens up about the heartbreak of leaving the original Hammersmith pub after impossible lease demands from Stonegate. He tells the wild stories that came with success, from seven hour queues to customers offering a thousand pounds in cash for a table. He recalls the day Dave Portnoy's 8.1 review changed everything, the surreal moment an American number rang asking for margaritas, and the sudden global spike in calls from fans desperate to try his pizza. There is also the now legendary saga of the toilet graffiti that became a t-shirt, a Wi-Fi code, and a small legal dispute.Carl's life story threads through the episode, from his days as a semi pro footballer playing alongside the Wealdstone Raider to being raised in his nan's old school London pub. He reveals the New York and LA inspirations behind his food, why an all day John and Vinnie's style concept could be his next move, and the places he eats on his own perfect food weekend. Honest, funny, and completely unguarded, this is Carl McCluskey at his best. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Across the world, footballers are hoping to be picked for their national team to play at FIFA World Cup 2026, but in Europe's top leagues, teams are picking younger players. In the Premier League this season, just over half of players are 25 and under. The average age of footballers starting matches is now 26 years and 217 days, the youngest in Premier League history.Being a young footballer is nothing new. But the amount of young footballers is rising. For some, like Arsenal's Max Dowman, they are setting records. He's the youngest Champions League player ever, debuting this season at 15-years-old. So why is football getting younger? BBC Sport reporter Jonty Colman gets into the game, the pressures, and why clubs are chasing down young talent. We also hear from Chifundo Mbofana, a young semi-professional footballer in Malawi, who explains how young players can inspire others.Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: Hannah Gelbart Producers: Imogen James, Mora Morrison and Julia Ross-Roy Editor: Verity Wilde

Bjorn Frantzen walks into the studio with nine Michelin stars behind him and the swagger of someone who has genuinely changed the direction of modern dining. The world calls him the greatest chef alive and for once the hype feels almost understated. In this episode of The Go To Food Podcast, Bjorn opens up about the journey from professional footballer to culinary architect and the heart condition that forced him to pivot from the pitch to the stove. What follows is a portrait of a man who rebuilt his entire life around flavour, discipline, and the pursuit of excellence.Throughout the conversation, Bjorn breaks down the philosophy that powers his restaurants. He shares how early lessons in teamwork shaped him, why cooking a la minute remains his obsession, and how he designs dining experiences that feel electric from the moment a guest rings the doorbell. From moving diners between rooms to maintaining a kitchen that creates dishes in real time, Bjorn explains how fine dining becomes theatre, emotion, and engineering. He even reveals the thinking behind his legendary ingredient box, his seasonal discipline, and the creative engine that keeps three restaurants at the very top.Bjorn also dives into the realities that most chefs never discuss. He recalls the brutal early days in London kitchens, the heartbreak of leaving football, the pressure of chasing a third star, and the even greater pressure of keeping it. He talks candidly about the partnership strain that played out on national television, the intense Nordic work culture, and why staying creative matters more than staying comfortable. Whether he is describing cooking scallops like meatballs on his disastrous first day or the thrill of a perfect langoustine, he delivers honesty with the confidence of someone who has earned every lesson.This episode is a rare chance to hear one of the most influential chefs of his generation speak with total clarity about ambition, sacrifice, and joy. Bjorn Frantzen is a creator, a disruptor, and a force who refuses to settle. If you want to understand what greatness looks like in real time, pour yourself a drink, settle in, and enjoy a master of his craft at full power.--------Please leave us a great rating and a comment and share it with your friends - it really helps us grow as a show.If you're in the industry and are looking for the greatest POS system in the world than look no further -as Blinq are tearing up the rulebook—no long-term contracts, no hidden fees, and no per-device charges.Just £69 a month for unlimited devices and 24/7 UK-based support that's always there, in person when you need it.Built for hospitality, by hospitality, blinq is the fastest, easiest POS system on the market—so intuitive, anyone can use it.

Maradona, Pele or Messi? It's the eternal debate. Who is the greatest footballer of all time? According to The Soccer 100, The Athletic's new book ranking football's hundred greatest players, the answer is Messi. But the North London based contributor Amy Lawrence cast a dissenting vote: she chose Pelé, deferring to those who witnessed the Brazilian king's dominance firsthand. The book's official ranking places Maradona second, Pelé third, then Cruyff, Ronaldo, and Di Stefano. But the list reveals something more interesting than rankings: the impossibility of comparing eras. How do we judge players like Alfredo Di Stefano or Ferenc Puskas we've only seen in grainy footage against those, like Messi or Ronaldo, whose every touch has been televised? And why do great footballers like Diego Maradona —masters of intelligence on the pitch—sometimes become such flawed and tragic figures off it?1. The Pelé Problem: Why Nostalgia Matters Amy Lawrence voted for Pelé as number one, even though The Athletic's collective ranking placed Messi first. Her reasoning? “When I grew up, when you spoke to people who were older than you, there wasn't a debate. Pelé was the best.” She deferred to those who witnessed him live—a rare admission that nostalgia might actually be wisdom, not sentimentality.2. Maradona's Genius Was Inseparable from His Madness Lawrence describes Maradona as playing “with a madness...there was something of the kind of intense creative artist about him.” He was a street footballer thrust into Italian mafia management, hacked and kicked because defenders “couldn't stop him by playing football.” His 1986 World Cup remains the most dominant individual performance in history—but his life became the cautionary tale of what happens when raw genius meets extreme celebrity.3. Cruyff Was the Anti-Ronaldo Johan Cruyff “encouraged everybody to think instead of just watch”—a philosopher-footballer who “was a bit of a rebel” and famously skipped the 1978 World Cup (possibly because his wife didn't trust him with the ladies). Contrast that with Cristiano Ronaldo, whom Lawrence describes as “built by design”—the AI-generated footballer, all machine, no poetry. If Ronaldo represents modern football's corporate efficiency, Cruyff embodied its lost intellectual soul.4. Women Journalists Don't Play the Gender Card—But Maybe They Should Lawrence, possibly the only woman among the ten journalists who compiled The Soccer 100, says she “never played the women's card” when arguing for players. But she admits that being a woman in a male-dominated field made her “just a bit more memorable” and perhaps allowed for “a slightly more sensitive line of questioning” that helped players relax. It's a fascinating tension: rejecting gender as relevant while acknowledging its subtle advantages.5. The Impossibility of Comparing Eras Makes These Lists Meaningless—and Essential How do you compare Di Stefano (whom most people have only seen in grainy footage) with Messi (whose entire career has been televised)? Or account for the fact that modern players rack up goals against Lithuania and Andorra, while older players “never got able to pick up goals playing against” minnows? Lawrence acknowledges “there was never any pretense that this was some kind of definitive list”—yet we need these lists anyway, because they force us to articulate what we value in greatness itself.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Footballers in Nepal organised a protest last week after the All Nepal Football Association (ANFA) announced it would not hold the ‘A' Division League this year too. They took to social media with a video asking the soccer governing body, "When will the ‘A' Division League take place?" and also hung their medals outside ANFA headquarters. To address the situation, the Ministry of Youth and Sports held talks between the two sides on Tuesday, 11 November, which resulted in ANFA reportedly agreeing to organise the league within 120 days. Our Nepal correspondent Pratichya Dulal spoke with Bishal Shrestha, treasurer of the Nepal Football Player Association about their demands, and ANFA spokesperson Suresh Shah, who confirmed the association is preparing to conduct the league within the next four months. - अखिल नेपाल फुटबल सङ्घ (एन्फा)ले यो वर्ष पनि 'ए' डिभिजन लिग नगर्ने भनेपछि नेपाली फुटबल खेलाडीहरू अगिल्लो साता त्यसको विरोधमा उत्रिएका थिए। विरोध स्वरूप उनीहरूले “ए डिभिजन लिग कहिले?” भन्दै भिडियो बनाएको र आफूहरूले जितेका मेडलहरू एन्फा मुख्यालयको गेटमा लगेर टाँगिदिएका तस्बिरहरू सार्वजनिक भएका हुन्। उक्त विवाद मिलाउन युवा तथा खेलकुद मन्त्रालयले दुवै पक्षबिच मङ्गलवार, ११ नोभेम्बरमा वार्ता गरेपछि त्यसको १२० दिन भित्र 'ए' डिभिजन लिग गर्न एन्फा सहमत भएको बताइएको छ। तर लिग सुरु नहुँदासम्म भने खबरदारी गरी नै राख्न पर्ने खेलाडीहरूको भनाई छ। फुटबल खेलाडीहरूले किन राखे त 'ए' डिभिजन लिगकै माग भन्ने बारे नेपाल संवाददाता प्रतिक्षा दुलाले फुटबल खेलाडी सङ्घका कोषाध्यक्ष विशाल श्रेष्ठसँग कुराकानी गर्नुभएको छ। यसै बारे एन्फाको तर्फबाट जानकारी लिने क्रममा एन्फाका प्रवक्ता सुरेश शाहले आगामी चार महिना भित्र लिग गर्न सङ्घ तयार रहेको दुलालसँगको कुराकानीमा बताएका छन्।

Send us a text20 years ago, former England footballer, Crystal Palace captain, and cancer survivor Geoff Thomas first made his mark on the cycling world by completing all 21 stages and 3,593km of the 2005 Tour de France, a day before the Lance Armstrong-led peloton.Since then, Thomas's Tour 21 has developed into a huge deal, and every year groups of amateurs follow in his wheel tracks and ride the Tour route one week before the pros, raising millions of pounds for Cure Leukaemia. And this summer, Geoff marked two decades since his first French summer by riding his seventh Tour 21. In a wide-ranging chat, Geoff discusses his own cancer story, the origins of his Tour rides, the highs and lows of 20 years of riding a bike around France, his experiences with a certain Texan, his relationship with cycling beyond the Tour, and why cycling in a group isn't that far removed from being part of a football changing room.

In this episode, Stuart and Jack welcome Mark Phillips — aka The Neurodivergent Footballer — a former pro who played for Millwall, Brentford, AFC Wimbledon, and Southend United. ⚽Recently diagnosed with ADHD, Mark has turned his journey of self-discovery into a mission to raise awareness around neurodiversity in sport and help the next generation of players thrive — both on and off the pitch.The conversation explores how understanding neurodiversity can transform coaching, communication, and player development. From emotional regulation to celebrating achievements, Mark shares how coaches and parents can create more supportive, inclusive environments for all young athletes.Topics We Cover:✅ Mark's journey through football and his ADHD diagnosis✅ Why neurodiversity awareness matters in coaching✅ Building supportive environments for every player✅ Emotional regulation and managing pressure✅ The importance of celebrating achievements✅ The role of parents in youth sports✅ Communication and empathy in player development✅ Resources and support networks for neurodivergent individualsWhether you're a coach, parent, or player, this episode offers invaluable insight into how understanding the mind can unlock potential — and make football a more inclusive, empowering space for everyone.

In this episode of Demystifying Mental Toughness, David Charlton speaks with Matt Young, an anxiety and fear coach and former professional footballer, about how emotional control can help athletes and coaches achieve lasting freedom and confidence, on and off the pitch. Matt shares how his playing career at Southampton and other clubs exposed deep insecurities and a constant need to control outcomes including; selection, performance, and judgment from others. That same drive for control, he explains, often leads athletes into anxiety, superstition, and burnout. True freedom, he argues, comes from looking at emotional control differently, not trying to control everything around you. The conversation explores how many athletes mask vulnerability, hide behind their sporting identity, and only seek help when things "break down." Matt advocates for a proactive approach, helping clubs and athletes emotionally prepare in the same way they prepare physically and tactically. He also shares what sets top performers apart; urgency, emotional awareness, and consistency in pursuing growth rather than waiting for crises to act. If you're an athlete, coach, or parent, this episode offers powerful insights on emotional mastery, identity, and resilience, key ingredients for sustained performance and wellbeing. >> Key Takeaways 1. Emotional Control Beats External Control - True confidence doesn't come from trying to control every situation, opponent, or outcome. It comes from mastering your internal state, your emotions, thoughts, and reactions so that you can stay composed and perform freely, no matter what's happening around you. 2. Masks and Identities Can Limit Growth - Many athletes hide behind their sporting identity or project confidence to cover insecurities. Over time, this emotional masking can lead to anxiety, burnout, and confusion about who they are beyond sport. Building emotional awareness helps athletes reconnect with who they are, not just what they do. 3. Be Proactive, Not Reactive with Mental Skills - Too many athletes wait until they're struggling before seeking help. Matt encourages a proactive approach developing emotional resilience and mental fitness before challenges hit. Just like a physical MOT, regular emotional check-ins can prevent breakdowns and keep performance consistent. This episode is packed with insights for athletes, coaches, and parents of young athletes about the importance of emotional control and emotional mastery for better more consistent performances and enhanced well-being.
