The Ramble: Don’t let anyone dim your shine, João
1 February - 48 minsSomeone pass Nobby Solano his trumpet, because Newcastle are heading to Wembley! Jim, Luke and Vish react to last night’s Carabao semi-final and a spending spree on deadline day!
We discuss Sky’s coverage and why it suddenly resembles a Zoom call sales conference, before turning to the very best of the pettiness from João Live Laugh Love Cancelo. Luke also explains his firm belief that Arsenal will let the Premier League slip through their fingers on the final day and we look forward to Jonjo Shelvs turning the ship around tonight for Nottingham Forest! If he’s let into the stadium, that is…

Ramble Reacts: Nagelsmann's Spurs rebound and super captain Mbappé!
The keys are in the lock, the gate is open, but oh yes we’re here with a weekend Ramble! Marcus and Andy react to news that one of Spurs’ targets has replaced, erm, another of Spurs’ targets at Bayern Munich. And it was a terrible day in more ways than one for poor old Julian Nagelsmann… We recap an even worse day for Karim Benzema as Kylian Mbappé and co run wild against the Dutch, while Marcus makes his feelings known about Antoine Griezmann’s pink hair and Virgil van Dijk proves that he’s got guts of steel after withstanding a dodgy chicken curry.

The Preview Show: Jonjo Legend
Are England rusty? Are England confident? Is it rusty confidence? Marcus, Jim, Pete and Luke react to a splendid night in Naples for Harry Kane! And definitely a splendid one for Kalvin Phillips, who was just happy to be involved. Elsewhere, a sensational list of puns from a listener (it’s been a while), Roy Hodgson gets his talons on the perch at Crystal Palace, and we get to the bottom of Jonjo Shelvey’s friction with John Legend. Plus, we have an existential crisis: if Soccer AM are gone, where does that leave us?

On The Continent: Where have all the Italians gone?
The Euros qualifiers are back! And ahead of tonight’s Euro 2020 re-run, Dotun, Andy and David talk all things Azzurri and explore why Roberto Mancini is bemoaning a lack of Italian players after a season of brilliant success in Europe for Serie A clubs. Elsewhere, we bid farewell to Mesut Özil, who tellingly didn’t bid farewell to Germany in his retirement announcement. And David and Andy ask: is El Clásico dead?!

At The Match: Porto’s shot at history
Andy heads to one of Europe’s most intimidating stadiums: the Estádio do Dragão. It’s a huge Champions League night and Porto have the chance to make it two Portuguese teams in the quarter-finals for the first time ever. Unsurprisingly, the atmosphere lived up to the occasion. Andy finds out how Sérgio Conceição has quietly (well, no, pretty loudly in his case actually) become one of Europe’s most impressive coaches and witnesses one of the most dramatic ends to a game you’ll ever hear! Plus, unexpected trivia about André Villas Boas’ grandmother. Special thanks to New Balance Football for taking us to the wonderful city of Porto! Where should Andy head to next?

The Drop In: Ian Holloway and finding the fun in football
“Sacked in the morning? Don’t think so.” Ian Holloway has so many famous one-liners that there are two entire books just of his quotes. But there’s more to him than those soundbites. Kate sits down with the former Crystal Palace, QPR and Blackpool manager to discuss how he’s brought up three deaf children, how that’s informed his management in incredible ways, and his view of the chaotic relegation scrap this season! Who would you like Kate to speak to next?

The Football Ramble’s Guide To… Ronaldinho
Carnival season is here! That’s right, it’s Ronaldinho’s birthday… Marcus, Jim, Vish and Pete relive the roller coaster career of the Brazilian star so dazzlingly skilful he seemed like he walked straight out of a Nike advert.
