Dotun Adebayo and Tim Vickery are joined by Spanish football expert and author Miguel Lourenço Pereira to examine one of the biggest stories in European football: José Mourinho's return to Real Madrid.Can Mourinho make Kylian Mbappé and Vinícius Jr work together? Why did Vinícius ultimately stay in Madrid rather than pursue a move to Arsenal? And has Real Madrid started to lose the pulling power that once made the world's best players desperate to wear white?Miguel explains why Mourinho may have played a key role in convincing Vinícius to stay, how José has changed since his first spell at the Bernabéu, and why this season could define much more than Madrid's trophy cabinet.The conversation also turns to Barcelona's signing of Rodri, whether he is an evolution of Sergio Busquets, Julián Álvarez's uncertain Atlético Madrid future, the historic Luís Figo transfer and the politics that make Spanish football's rivalries so different.Plus, could Real Madrid's ownership structure itself eventually change if the club struggles to keep financially competing with the Premier League and PSG?Miguel is the author of The Greatest: Real Madrid's Never Ending Story.Join the Brazilian Shirt Name WhatsApp Channel: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbBNgO58PgsAgQXRP32TSubscribe to FC Camisa, the home of football's story told properly.Miguel's book: The Greatest: Real Madrid's Never Ending Story - https://www.pitchpublishing.co.uk/shop/greatest
Five weeks on from the World Cup final, Tim Vickery and Henry Winter are back together. Welcome to Futebol & Football, a new FC Camisa show bringing together two different perspectives on the same game: Tim from South America, Henry from England, and both with a lifetime of stories from football around the world. In Episode 1, Henry still hasn't forgiven England for what happened at the World Cup, Tim admits he's struggling to reconnect with the Premier League, and the conversation quickly turns into something much bigger: has elite football lost some of its soul? They discuss Thomas Tuchel's England future, Harry Kane, the growing distance between clubs and supporters, Argentina's winning mentality, Enzo Fernández and racism in football, the escalating battle around Gianni Infantino and FIFA, the prospect of a 64-team World Cup and whether football's calendar can keep expanding. And finally, Lionel Messi. After the death of his father, Tim and Henry reflect on Messi the footballer, Messi the man, whether we are approaching the end, and how Argentina can possibly move on from the greatest player of their generation.

England and Argentina's rivalry did not begin with Diego Maradona's Hand of God, David Beckham's red card or England's revenge in 2002. Tim Vickery goes further back to uncover the forgotten matches that helped create one of international football's fiercest rivalries. The story begins with Britain's enormous influence on the development of football in Argentina and the surprisingly warm relationship between the two countries. In 1951, Argentina became the first team from outside the British Isles to face England at Wembley. Despite losing late, Argentina returned home celebrating a defeat with honour. But by 1964, everything had changed. Argentina had adopted a tougher and more defensively disciplined style. Their victory over England in Rio profoundly influenced Alf Ramsey and his ideas about what England would need to win the 1966 World Cup. Tim explains how that forgotten encounter planted the seeds for England's eventual World Cup triumph and the controversial quarter-final between the countries two years later.
