Summary

It's Jimbo joined by Charlie Eccleshare, Duncan Alexander, and all the way from Brazil, Tim Vickery!

And it's a Brazilian flair to the show today as we discuss favourite Brazilian footballers, club swapping Brazilian players (see Raphinha, Gabriel Jesus, Richarlison), and we talk all about the 1950 World Cup which was hosted in, that's right, Brazil - but devastatingly, not won by them. Spoilers!

It's not all about the South American continent though, we have some Adebayor nostalgia as The Athletic's Premier League Golden Games reaches number 34. We talk Alfie Devine and the England U19s, and On This Day there was a rather famous commentator's curse moment...

I can vouch for the fact that at 5 o'clock in the morning, there is a very, very thin line between love and hate. Very good morning, you're saying, Tim. That song ends with somebody hospitalized, brutally, of course. We'll have to see how today plays out, listener. Mm. Ooh, Abdullah Bashiti's in with the early question.
