The Athletic FC

Hello and welcome to the TIFO football podcast.

I'm Joe Devine.

And today I'm delighted to be joined by Kaya Kynak.

Hi.

Hello there. Colin Miller.

Hey, Joe.

Hello.

And also Tom Harris is here.

Hi, Joe.

What's up, Tom? That was pretty cool how I said what. That was cool. What's up, guy? Anyway, we're also joined by Steve. Hello. And producer, new producer, Nathan. Hi. There he is. Nathan's there in the, they're both there in the cupboard there together. What am I saying? Oh, we've got a lot of stuff on the show today, but I need to start, don't I, by addressing the fact that we are on a new YouTube channel now, Steve. We are. Well, in some ways, it's not new. This is going to be boring if you listen via the audio, RSS feed. But if you're watching us on YouTube, you may have noticed that although YouTube's algorithm is excellent and has still served you the episode you wanted anyway, regardless of the fact that you'll maybe not subscribe to this channel. We have recently merged our two YouTube channels into one. So everything that was previously being published on the TIFO podcast YouTube channel, that's on the main TIFO football channel now. I could explain why, but it's arduous and boring. Just know, it's good for me. Yeah? You like that? Everybody like that? To become one. I need some football videos like I've never needed football videos before. Come to Tifo football, baby. There you go. Okay, what did we talk about on today's podcast? Oh, yes, here it is. Man United, have wils swung. Yes, they do. What does that mean? Well, that's a lot of momentum in German. We talk about another win for the Red Devils. Right, Steve, of course. We compare Ben Yeminshessechko to the dwarfs in Lord of the Rings. I forgot that we did that. Due to their speed over short distances, of course. We also talk about United's Belgian keeper Sena Lomans. Is he the kind of man who uses unscented shower gel like that man from Sky Sports said, I agree. What sense do you use in the shower? That we do not decide. That's a shame we missed an opportunity there to talk about different fruit smells. Yes. You don't really have, you don't really sort of scent shower gel with anything other than fruit. Is coconut a fruit? It is a fruit. It's a nut. Mint's not a fruit. That's a herb, right? That's a herb. Yeah. That's true. Quite a tangy sensation. Mint doesn't grow any fruit, does it?

No, it's a leaf.

A famous mint fruit? Herbie leaf. Herbacious leaf. Asides from leaves and fruits. You see leather in some of the more disgusting ones, don't you? Leather? I'm pretty sure I've seen a leather, like, leather vibe. Is that like, Imperial leather?

Smell of leather?

Not that, yeah, in the scented leather.

Imperial leather is, of course, a soap.

That's very, imperial leather. Smell leather.

Not that, yeah, in the scented leather.

Imperial leather is, of course, a soap. That's very. That's a, wow. My shower gel smells like the carcass of a dead animal. Good Lord. That's just what my natural body smell smells like anyway. Now, what else did we talk about? well, we did a Champions League check-in, didn't we? Norwegian side bodeo glimpt of thrown last year's finalists into out of the competition. We travel in our mind's eye to the Arctic Circle to learn more about those nifty Norwegians, right? Steve, we did do that. After a break, we play a Rondo. Nick Miller's Rondo del Rey Crown has been claimed by

another. You'll have to wait till later on to find out who. And then we move on to Manchester City,

the blue side of Manchester, of course, has been brought back themselves. I've read that wrong,

Steve, but I'm just going to press on, has been brought back themselves into the title race
