Steff, Milo, and Ricky look back at the 3-1 win over Crystal Palace, learn how to break low blocks with aplomb, offer an appreciation of Timo Werner, hail the card-free Romero, and take a peek at Palace manager Oliver Glasner’s head (inside and out). Plus, did Hugo Lloris really need a carrot in his face this week? We think so…
Crystal Palace
Bentancur Is Back
Steff, Milo, and Ricky pontificate on the the view from up top as we look back at the 2-1 win over Palace, we talk beautiful goals, we talk onfield education, we talk how fantastic Ange is, and we excitedly discuss the return of that beautiful bearded semi-mohawked mullet magician of a man known as Rodrigo Bentancur…join us!
God Save The King
Steff, Milo, and Gareth discuss our win over Palace, King Harry’s horny headers, broken records, youth gone wild, and the damn fine job Ryan Mason is doing…we also bid a fond farewell to a pod favourite as a first-team regular. Plenty of tactically fluid conversation to enjoy, so go on then!
The Kids Are Alright
Steff, Milo & Ram celebrate two years of The Game Is About Glory with clean sheets, abundant youth and lashings of Harry Kane. We also dive into take-over rumours, as well as pour over Porro and other transfer tittle-tattle…well, it is the season! All this, plus Ram’s on-the-spot morph into a proper footie man! Lovely!
Just A (90) Minute
In this first pod of 2022, Steff, Milo, Ram and Jay look to vary things up as they review the various matches which took place over the festive season, drawing the line at repetition and allowing no prevarication when looking back at Watford, Southampton, Crystal Palace and West Ham. Milo was vary happy to play Stockley Park, his accuracy proving variable, albeit he was dealing with minute details…just tune in. It will make sense.
It’s A Fair Klopp Guv
This week, Milo, Steff and Gareth discuss the return to standards and expectations at Spurs in the wake of the Liverpool match, plus we try to figure out whether football should stay or go during the Covid spike. We also pay light homage to the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body, at the same time covering our tragic exit from the Europa Conference League.
Palace Pain and Sonny Delight
On this week’s pod, Steff, Milo, Gareth and Awesome look back at one of the greatest US Open tennis stories ever, evaluate the injury list at White Hart Lane, discuss the mighty Son Heung-min, ponder whether his Dad is in the running for father of the year, and Steff admits publicly to Milo he was wrong about how to say ‘Royal’…we might also discuss 22 men kicking a ball last Saturday, well, 11 at least…tune in for the shenanigans.
March Review
In our second monthly review, we take a look back at the month of March and take a more considered view of how it went. The regular pods are an immediate reaction to a game. This is an attempt to be more reflective and look at the bigger picture.
Touched By The Hand Of Luton
Bale’s brilliance, Kane’s klassic, Davo’s dominance and Moura’s marauding are all discussed in this week’s look back at 4-1 pummelling of Palace, plus we pause to remember the unfortunate day Scott Parker got goosed at Bicester Village and James Alexander Milo narrates the football scores. All this and acapella renditions of the Football Gazetta Italia theme song? You know you want it!
Bear Hard
This week The Game Is About Glory celebrates our 4-0 thumping of Burnley, our 4-0 thumping of Pellets, cult heroes and ponders whether we have seen the back of nervous bogies flicked onto sofas and errantly delivered poo emojis in the heat of tactical battle. You know you’ve been there…
