The Athletic FC Podcast Network.

Welcome to the Athletic FC podcast with me, Ayur, Akim Weleri.

Tonight, Spurs or Manchester United will be crowned Europa League champions.

So will it be Posta Coglu or Amerin that rescues a disastrous season?

Right, joining me for this one is the Athletic Spurs writer Jay Harris and Manchester United

writer who is actually out in Spain at the moment,

Carl Anker. Carl, I'll start with you. I've taken a look at your socials. I've seen Paris,

beer it, and San Sebastian. I'm just thinking delicious food on this wonderful journey to Bill Bauer. Talk to me,

man. What have you eaten? Not much. I'm really sorry. I'm really sorry.

This business, this trade. I've bought several big flapjacks from W.J. Smith in the airport.

Oh, don't do this to me, me. And I'm just clam our way through those at the moment. I'm bumped into the comedian Ali Woods last night in San Sebastian. And he thankfully shared with me sort of map of San Sebastian. So I'm bumped into the comedian, Ali Woods, last night in San Sebastian, and he thankfully shared

with me sort of map of San Sebastian. So I'm going to have myself a nice coffee and some decent

breakfast before I shoot off to Bill Bowell. But look, this is what people see, the Instagram,

being a football journalist on Instagram, amazing, right? You go to all these beautiful cities

around the world, and it's fantastic. But Jay will tell you, being a football journalist, you spend a lot of time,

and I mean a lot of time in car parks waiting for things to happen. Yeah, you do a lot of

travelling. I remember when I was at the World Cup in Qatar, there were a lot of times I was filing

on a coach back from a stadium at like three, four in the morning. Still all good though.

Let's not completely complain.

I'm never going to say.

There's people listening to this thing.

Come on, man.
