| 0:00.0 | My name's Sharzad Kiade. I'm a Gemini Pescatarian, a mom of two wild little boys. I'm Susan Yara. I'm a mom of two also. This morning, I went to the bathroom alone. I woke up at five, put my boob in her mouth, and then she took a dump because that's what she uses me for. That's what you're going to hear a lot of our stories and experiences and our crazy journeys to motherhood. It's for all moms, |
| 0:22.9 | not for all dads, not fathers and moms, for all moms. It's going to be good all time. You guys are |
| 0:27.6 | going to want to stick around, promise. So subscribe. I'm Joe Devine and welcome to Whiteboard Football Extra. |
| 0:34.2 | Today, I'm joined by Alex Stewart to talk about Romolulukaku at Manchester United and Liverpool and their counterpressing. |
| 0:41.7 | Both topics we covered in recent tactics explained videos on our YouTube channel. |
| 0:46.4 | You don't need to have seen them to listen to this podcast, but you might like to, |
