Superlative Celje, lively Lech & Larnaca, and what's going on with the big boys? — a Conference League check in
from Any Given Thursday
So — we weren't able to record an episode for MD 1 of the Conference League last week, but we've got the next best thing! We've picked a few UECL teams to zero in on, all of which got big wins in this early stage of the league phase, including Lech Poznan, Shakhtar Donetsk, and AEK Larnaca. But the main story is Slovenia's NK Celje, who keep defying expectations and dominating European opponents. We ask the important questions — Why are they so successful? How far can they go? And when can we visit? We also introduce you to their new starman, Franko Kovacevic, who's taking both the Slovenian and Conference Leagues by storm this season. It may well be name to remember. Finally, we bring you our new segment: The Big Boy Check In, where we do 60 second spots on each of the 5 "big league" teams (Palace, Fiorentina, Rayo, Mainz, Strasbourg). What's up with them? What direction are they going in? Who do we like to go all the way? All that and some Aberdeen on today's show! Cheers to Imanol Idiakez!
