Stadio: A Football Podcast

It’s not even September and yet, some seasons have not got off to the start that fans wished.
After multiple places to begin and a bit of chat about more Jude Bellingham brilliance, Musa and Ryan then move on to what has been a difficult start for Spurs and another home defeat, this time to Newcastle United (08:34). They examine quite how much time Roberto de Zerbi will be given, considering the big spending summer, which raised expectations massively.
There’s also some chat about Manchester United’s win over Ipswich (27:22), Liverpool (39:00), plus the Bundesliga’s return, a stuttering start for PSG and much, much more.

The Premier League is back and so are Musa and Ryan, who chat about the first games of the new season, which showed signs of a new dynamic emerging in England’s top flight.

Arsenal got off to a routine start, whereas Manchester United, Aston Villa, Spurs and more suffered very disappointing opening weekend defeats. Hull, Ipswich, Brighton and Brentford had the headline wins, so there’s chat about whether teams will take advantage of the post World Cup variables and how important it is for clubs not to fall behind.

There are also shoutouts for some results in Spain, Italy, France, Germany and… the J-League!

We’re now back on the free feed and into the regular season schedule!
Musa and Ryan begin with a quick shout out for Cameroon winning their first Women’s AFCON, defeating Malawi 3-0 in Rabat (03:08).
They then move onto Arsenal’s 3-0 win over Manchester City in the Community Shield (06:26) and discuss what the takeaways were for both Mikel Arteta and Enzo Maresca and if this tells us anything about this year’s Premier League.
Speaking of which, they then go through the league club by club (23:55), making their ‘no lower than’ position predictions for this season, and chat a bit about Paul Pogba to finish.
