  • I miss the old tifo podcast. Hands down it was the best football podcast. Anyone remember the post game World Cup streams? Please bring it back.
  • @Farrisfaen
    We gather here once again to remember what they took from us. Rest in peace tifo.
  • @pjeetter
    Great podcast and the chemistry of the trio. They should try making this a weekly or more frequent podcast and call it tifo
  • @ilpmuRk
    JJ consistently ignoring Joe’s jokes is hilarious
  • I missed this format a lot, great to have you guys back together, even if only for the Euros
  • @DeanRTaylor
    The juxtaposition of jokes and lightheartedness against the smart and detailed analysis just works and is a good format. Glad to see you guys back at it.
  • Every time the video cuts to the wide shot of all three of them I immediately look at JJ’s laptop hanging over the edge of the table.
  • @irGuilty
    Why can’t we have this weekly? Or even twice a week? Best football show/podcast out there
  • @jlloyd276
    I had to rewatch at least half of this video as I kept getting distracted watching the Atheltic logo cycle through flags.

    "i'm smiling because I'm sad" - I felt that in my soul 🤣
  • I said this months ago. Theyve always had Rashford or Sterling to run beyond Kane, Gordon is the only profile who does this. If Shaw isn't going to be fit, Saka has to play on the left. He can be a wingback rather than fullback. You can negate this with either Rice dropping in or Walker tucking in(or play Gomez). You could then play Trent who can move to his favourite right handside. He'll have options if you have Gordon stretching defences. This will also make opposition presses more wary.

    "He's a terrible troll- that's what we call him in the office..." 😂
  • @Irishkb
    i have missed joe's chaos in any given football chat
  • @macmuggo5459
    Glad to see some Euros coverage again! I've liked the transfer talk, but during those videos, I can't help but feel they seem out of place in this remarkable tournament.

    Gareth’s problem is this - the effort he’s made to unite the players and create a harmonious environment, understandable, leave him hamstrung when he needs to make a controversial decision like dropping Foden - he thinks it could affect team morale Gareth needs to grow some cajones and make a tough tactical decision and OWN it with his players
