The Totally Football Show with James Richardson - A podcast by The Athletic

Jimbo and the Euro crew of Raphael Honigstein, Julien Laurens, Alvaro Romeo and James Horncastle are back with all the major European leagues now back in full swing. Drama on Tuesday morning as Jose Mourinho is sacked by Roma. Hear why the fans loved him but the lack of Champions League football was no longer viable. What next for Jose? Pressure on Xavi at Barcelona after they’re hammered by Real Madrid in the Super Cup final. Outclassed by Carlo Ancelotti but can Barca afford to make a change? The Bundesliga is back with Leverkusen demonstrating their bottle, Kane scoring again and Sancho showing more than many expected.
