On today’s show, Ryan Bailey and Graham Ruthven answer your listener questions! More specifically, these listener questions...
1) Scotland in the 70's and 80's seems to have had a lot of top-end players. Is it correct to say Scotland underperformed heavily in that era and if so, what were the reasons?
2) Is Poophousery strategic? Can it be taught? Can it elevate an otherwise less-skilled team to success at scale?
3) We hear a lot of criticism about Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. To flip it positive: what is Ole really good at?
4) Is retiring a jersey a thing in soccer? Should Barcelona retire the No.10 jersey?
5) Did Liverpool trick everyone into thinking Coutinho was good, or was he actually good?
6) What would happen if FIFA changed the throw-in rule to allow any types of throws. Which would be the most used? Would throw-ins become a bigger or smaller part of the game? Would there be throw-in specialists?
7) Is the FIFA video game a positive for kids to play? On one hand, it helps kids get into the sport and understand some of the roles. On the other, it’s not a very accurate facsimile of the game and some traits appear under or overvalued.

Journalist and author Simon Kuper joins the show to discuss his out-standing new book, The Barcelona Complex: Lionel Messi and the Making - and Unmaking - of the World's Greatest Soccer Club. The book itself functions as a semi-biography of Cruyff, Messi, and the club as a whole, but also provides fascinating insight into the present lives of modern superstars. What do they eat when they hang out together, how much more cautious are they in the age of cell phones and how life at La Masia prepares athletes for both The Camp Nou and also Spartan military society. Sorta. Plus, the strange way Johan Cruyff greets people on the telephone, how Barcelona's steadfast plans for signing Ousmane Dembele were thrown out the window in the first 5 seconds of their meeting, and much much more!

Christine Cupo is back on the show to preview Juventus ahead of the 2021-2022 Serie A season. We get into what Pirlo could have done differently to keep his job and what Allegri's opening priorities will be in his second stint with the club. Which players will benefit from his return, which mainstays from last season could find themselves on the outs, and how are the fans feeling about club chairman Andrea Agnelli? All that and much much more... including A LOT of anxious talking about Weston McKennie.
