Club Podcasts Podcast

Action packed show today. Three great guests, three great discussions all things Arsenal. We open the show with @JohnCrossMirror who joins us from Stockholm who discusses our defensive run, our England Internationals, Wenger's voice and the NLD. We then catch-up with Phil Wall of AST who chats about the FFP meeting they hosted this past Monday. And close the show with Kelvin of Black Scarf Movement who educates us on who they are, what they want and of course some discussion on the NLD. Thanks for listening.

We're going to do something a little different as Matt Wall from SoccerPro will join us on a monthly basis to talk about the latest releases and some of the hottest products in football. So whether you are a hard core footballer all the way to the most casual of fans, you gotta listen to this special minipodcast designed specially for you. Let us know how you feel about this special pod that we have begun doing on Mad About Futbol.

We open with @HayleyWright, creator of Diary of a Season which can be seen at www.Gingers4Limpar.com. We chat about her Vlog, the United game (chants) and look forward to the weekend. We close the show with first time guest, Tom Watt, who hosts Arsenal Fan's Forum. We talk about his love for the club, United, Schalke, Jan transfers, mentality and our next three (big) games. Hope you guys enjoy. I did.

James talks about more controversy coming from Chelsea Football Club and the heroic victory over Shakhtar Donetsk just yesterday.

Another week, another Pod. We welcome Andrew Mangan, the @Arseblog, and Tim from @7amkickoff to the show for a roundtable discussion on QPR, the insanity that took place at Reading and preview the United game. We close the show with Tim Stillman (@LittleDutchVA) who stops by to chat about his Reading adventure - the craziness didn't just take place at the game, the travels to the stadium provided for some drama too. Enjoy. Cheers.

Today on Mad About Fútbol... Juan and Mike are joined by famous Argentine writer Eduardo Sacheri. Sacheri, a lifelong Independiente fan, is one of the most popular writers in all of Latin America as he began his career writing fictional football tales and his career would evolve into writing for various sport publications. He has also written books such as the book that ended up becoming an Oscar-winning movie, The Secret In Their Eyes. On the show he discusses the passon that enveloped the Superclásico as well as the current situation in Argentine football both at the club and national team level. The guys also talk some literature, culture and film with this award- winning author. We also get an in-depth perspective of "fatherhood" for Mike as he has to deal with his puppy during the recording

What a show this week! Action packed with a great AGM meeting discussion as well a depression ridden roundtable with Tim Clark of @Arse2Mouse and Andrew Allen (@AAllenSport) of Arseblog News. We open the show with @TimPayton, fresh of the AGM meeting, where he chats with us about the AGM meeting temperature, answers and non-answers. Enjoyable as always. We close out the show with a roundtable discussion with Tim and Andrew. We talk about our emotional state. Like our emotional state. Not the players. We hit on the past two performances, why we're in a such a terrible run and look ahead to QPR. Hope you enjoy it.

In this edition of the Mad About Futbol Show the guys talk about the biggest rivalry in the world as both River Plate and Boce Juniors renew their rivalry at the Estadio Monumental this coming Sunday. During this show they take up a great deal of time breaking down the teams as well as delving into their respective subplots leading up to the biggest game of the season as well as talk a great deal about the culture as well as the intricacies of this rivalry. There is also talk about the 2016 Copa América which will take place in the United States with teams from both CONMEBOL and CONCACAF taking part in it. The ramifications as well as the potential moneymaker and tournament that can really change the game in the region for the better. All this plus George's diatribe on why Zlatan Ibrahimovic is not a star sprinkled in with marriage advice and fantasy football talk is all part of this edition of Mad About Futbol.

The International break is now behind us with all eyes now on Norwich. We welcome to great guests to the show this week. We open with Jim van Wijk (@JimvanWijkPA) of the Press Association, who happens to be a Norwich fan. We talk Theo, players returning from injury as well as a preview of Norwich. We close the show with good friend Elliot Smith of @YankeeGunner, who chats with us about the season thus far. A micro review if you will.

If you are a person that usually listens to the Mad About Futbol Show alongside our kid; not a good idea today. Juan was cautiously over the moon as Colombia took a step closer to the World Cup yet he believed that there was a long ways to go. George and Mike also praised Los Cafeteros and the job that José Pekerman as well as teams such as Ecuador and Venezuela. They also talked about the precarious situation being faced by Uruguay as well as Chile as their respective forms have slumped siginificantly. That, plus the guys' impressions on the US national team. For starters, they aren't as alarmed and think that expectations are just a little too high for Jürgen Klinsmann's men. Also the controversy on whether the lack of form is a problem stemming from the coach or is it an issue that is a creation from the system and the way things are being done in US Soccer still. Of course this is all stemming from the 2-1 win the US fought for in their trip to Antigua. Despite all the criticisms, the US national team came out with some positives and are now a point away fro qualifying to the hexagonal. The opinions are a bit heated but at the same time the guys do their best to give the best information as well as try to give as many different perspectives to the subjects that are being talked about during this show. All this plus fantasy football, colorblindness, y-chromosome length,and who is a "real" Miami Hurricane in this Sweet 16 edition of Mad About Futbol.
