Summary
Jimbo is joined by Duncan Alexander, Lynsey Hooper and Tom Williams to comb through a footballing week full of finals.
Villarreal win their first ever major trophy, as Unai Emery claims yet another Europa League title. And it’s at the expense of a Manchester United side suffering through Solskjaer’s lack of substitutions, De Gea’s lack of penalty saves and Fernandes’s coin toss decisions.
Stunning managerial news as Conte leaves Inter, Zidane leaves Real and could Pochettino follow his heart, leave PSG and go back to Spurs? Jack Pitt-Brooke tells us more.
Lynsey details an emotional goodbye to Nuno at Wolves. We also look ahead to the Championship play-off final and the Champions League final. The key to which could be Edouard Mendy and what he brings to Chelsea’s attack.
Plus it’s the grand final of the Inter Totally Cup – defending Michael Cox takes on tournament debutant Benji Lanyado.
