Which much less beloved Man United legend was the film initially going to be named after?

How did it become such a success?

Why is the football so bad in the football film?

Why is Jonathan Rhys Meyers so creepy as the coach?

Rumours of Cristiano Ronaldo's demise have been greatly exaggerated as he lifted yet another trophy and scored yet another important goal, this time helping Portugal lift the 'coveted' Nations League title against rivals Spain.

Ronaldo just keeps going and just keeps scoring, and it must be becoming a bit of a headache for the Portugal team...or is it?

The starboy once again lit up the game as Lamine Yamal put his money where his mouth is once again by calling his shot and then taking it, this time with fellow Ballon Do'r candidate Dembelé in his sights.

He came, he saw, he conquered Europe. No Nonsense pod Hall of Famer Ange Postecoglu was officially sacked by Spurs after the last episode with his replacement Thomas Frank looking set to join the club. Is Frank doomed before he starts or do we just not know anything about anything?

We unveil the winner of our poll to decide which will be the first football film we review on the next episode.

You'd be forgiven for thinking a final with 5 goals and incredible performances was a classic Champions League final. But unfortunately for Inter Milan, it was a pummeling for the ages by PSG as they finally get over the European finish line.

As an Mbappé-less PSG win the Champions League, it's easy to forget that they are still the bad guys and this is probably not great for the sport as a whole.

We review our Absolutes and the season as we correctly predict the story of the summer - Spurs win a trophy and Ange is on the way out.

In one of the most doomed press tours of all time, Man United immediately got on the first plane to Asia after the season ended for a few more embarrassment to round off the season.

In contrast to the suffering Man United starboys, Scott McTominay is still out there partying in Napoli as the official Serie A MVP and newest club legend.
