Man City Drop More Points, Rashford Keeps Misfiring, Rodrygo Keeps Firing + More

Not your usual start to a football podcast, but we kicked this episode off by talking about Jay Z and our favorite albums from the Hip-Hop legend. Afterwards, we talk about Manchester City and their draw against Spurs (and the blunder by referee, Simon Hooper), Arsenal’s great form, the trials and tribulations of Marcus Rashford, and Rodrygo’s hot form at Real Madrid. Then, we introduce a new segment called the “Ballon d’Or Power Ranking” where we talk about the frontrunners for the award. We round that up with some #BirdWatch and share our experience going to watch Sporting Lagos as a crew for the first time.
