Summary

Manchester United ended their five year trophy drought by beating Newcastle United in the League Cup final. We discuss if this is the symbolic start of something good for Erik Ten Hag and his team, and if the League Cup is a minor or major trophy… In Scotland, Celtic win another League Cup and we ponder if the dominance of Ange Postecoglou’s side will keep on going. Forever. Tottenham find themselves in the top four after beating a defensively and offensively lacklustre Chelsea 2-0. At this point, the redemption arc for Graham Potter at Chelsea is going to be quite epic if it does come… We talk for a bit about quite how drastic the collapse in standards at Liverpool has been, and Jon gets very excited about Javi Gracia’s first game, and victory; as Leeds United manager. Plus, we briefly look at how Paris St Germain will probably win Ligue Un again but probably not the Champions League. And, even more briefly, we cast our eyes over the last 16 draw for the Europa League, Europe’s second most major, or minor; cup competition.

0:19.1	stroking his beard yet. We also have JJ Bull. Yes. Who's here as well? And today we spoke
0:24.9	about so many amazing things. England and Scotland's league cups. And the fact they have three
0:30.5	handles. And maybe why? A refreshed Tottenham that are still painful on the eyes. How painful
0:36.6	would it be to put grit in your eyes? Don't do that at home, please. Who would be a sorbet
0:42.2	manager? A palette cleanser for Chelsea if they sack Graham Potter. John is very excited
0:48.4	about heavy gracia at Lades. Yes. Yes. And by way of a little digestive of legal football,
1:00.0	etc. Yes. And if you want to hear even more about all of those things, you should get

1:10.5	I read all of it. Wow. I read every single article. That is a lot.
1:14.5	That's ever been written on the Athletic this week. Because there is a huge palette and
1:18.0	man, I tell you there are many. You might. It took a long time.

1:39.4	through this podcast is to go to JJ the Athletic.com forward slash Tiffle. And then you can
1:46.8	read articles like Michael Bailey's Analyze and Marquinius's Norse's debut. The other
1:51.7	Marquinius. We've got a new years as well. I mean, yeah, you know, it's got a better
1:56.1	goal than Darwin in midweek. How was it, baby? You're just signing players who have good
2:00.5	names now. Yeah. In the hope. Or maybe it's he sounds good. Maybe it's just where the
