Welcome to the Total Soccer Show and our final weekend review of the European season.

In the Premier League, we had intense last-minute drama on the last day as Man City,

managed to keep Liverpool Bay.

But Aston Villa nearly made them pay for some fairly uninspired play. But it was Ilke Gundawan who came back into the fray to show the citizens the way. Meanwhile, Leeds' season was prevented from getting messy by a man called Jesse. Burnley lived out their worst fears and dropped for the first time in six years. And in Italy, the Rossinari had the most

points accrued and they lifted the title thanks to a brace from Giroud and a rebuilt

from Pioli that was pretty darn shrewd. What a way for the season to conclude. My name's

Ryan Bailey joining me today, a man who's embracing his inner Zlatan Ibrahimovic by recording today with a cigar and a bottle of champagne in his hand. Hello, Joseph Lowry. Sorry, I'm just looking around for the camera. How does you know that, Ryan? Good gracious. I do have a cigar in my hand. I do have a nice beverage. That's beautiful for me. And second of all, sorry that my chuckle threw you off your game there a little bit. That was just a really good intro, and I had to give it a little chuckle.

You're very welcome, Jim. You're quite, you know, squiffy on the champagne at this point. The half of the bottle I can see there from my spy camera on you. Yeah, you know, it's pretty early here, but I've never let that stop me before.

So we should be good.

That's the spirit.

That's the spirit.

I'm, of course, referring, Joe, to Milan winning the Skudetto on Sunday, and Zlatan, who was on the team that won it 11 years ago as well, coming out, and not even in the San Ciro, in Suswolo Stadium, swaggering out with a cigar and a big bottle of bubbly as well. That was a baller move, was it not, Joe? It's just a good thing that Graham's not here, because if he was, I think we'd have to do five or so minutes on Zlatan and why that was not something that Graham enjoyed, because Graham and Slaton are mortal enemy. It's just to fill in the gaps there in case anybody didn't know that or didn't remember that. But for me, that is

just peak. Lata, winning a title at age 85 or however old he is at this point, and also still

walking into a stadium where you've never played for that team and still acting like you owned

it. I mean, when you win the title, that's kind of the privileges that you're afforded.

Exactly so, Joseph, exactly so. And as you say, they're Graham not with us today. He's still on his vacation in Florida, specifically not watching any soccer. And also not understanding how to pay for things. We've got a big conversation on our Slack about how he doesn't get why you have to have like a paper check and sign a tip afterwards and things. Which now I mentioned it is kind of weird that the States does that. Have you ever noticed that? Yeah, it's, it's too complicated. It's just too complicated everywhere, and it's unfortunate that the complications aren't the same from country A to country B. So, Graham, we do feel you, and we're sorry about that. Yeah, it's okay. I mean, it's just a different system.

Like in Europe, you basically like tap your card on a machine and then runaway.

There's no signing things or anything like that because there's no dipping culture.

Very different systematic.

Reasons, Joseph.

Also not with us today, Joe, is Taylor Rockwell.

Much like wolves in the last few weeks, he's on the beach. He's also on the beach in the greatest state in the history of states. Can you guess which one that is, Joe? Well, Arizona doesn't have any beaches, so I don't really know what you could be talking about. No. Second greatest state? Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, we can do that. The good old North Carolina.
