Joe Devine, JJ Bull, Seb Stafford-Bloor and Jon Mackenzie are here to talk about some football.
Liverpool put seven, yes SEVEN, past Manchester United at Anfield. So how the hell did that happen?
Elsewhere, Arsenal secured the three points in the dying seconds with a moment that may become part of highlight reels for years to come.
Further down the table, Brighton hammered The Hammers West Ham 4-0. Are David Moyes men starting to reek of relegation form?
Seb Stafford-Bloor joins us for the second half of the show. We talk about a potential spanner in the works for Newcastle United’s owners emanating from the world of golf…
We look to Germany and discuss the fact that there is in fact a title race in the Bundesliga. But is that interesting? We’ll let you decide.
Napoli’s fifteen point lead in Italy means there probably isn’t a title race anymore but they will be the fourth different champion there in a row which is… interessante.
Plus, we discover the origins of some of our favourite idioms and there is a disturbing conversation about pigs.
This episode of the Tifo football podcast is presented by Joe Devine and produced by Steve Hankey.

I'm sorry but he just said the United centre backs did no mistakes individually did you see varane for gakpos first goal if that's van djik he's rinsed….. Gakpos 2nd goal martinez gets rinsed by salah 1 v1 so how. In gods name can you say they made no mistakes individually
Outtakes are wonderful!
Do listeners enjoy the sarcastic "humor" that these guys do? Joe is the main culprit for me in trying to be ironic and mostly coming off as unfunny and dickish. I love the analysis but I just find all the banter insufferable.
SHOW BLOOPERS EVERY EPISODE PLZ
Took me 6 months to figure out how yous are editing the breaks
Sebs room progression had been glorious. The xCat and xPlant progression is clear to see.
Anyone have that description for bullard?? 😅
Bienvenidos!!
I think the quality of the analysis is indicative of the quality of Man United play. I might be brilliant individual players as a team play for short much like this analysis.
JJ's Aberdeen references are one of my favourite features of the podcast, long may they continue
I always whistle the intro
what is bollard, or idk i cant find the word. what does it mean
Robertson did it just after Fernandes to take the mick
A scientific mind approaches this game as either a Fluke, just one of those things that happen, hardly ever, very rarely
Or it sees data
9-0 7-1 7-0
Three points of data make a trend
Fire Jon.
What is a Bullard?
I could listen to you guys talk about Star Wars for a whole podcast buttttt great analysis as always pls don’t fire JJ
About time that monsieur Devine returned
20:50 Screenplay by Quentin Tarantino and produced by Christopher Nolan
Disappointed there was no cocaine bear chat. I'll be writing to your bosses
LMAO you've made it big so ofcourse you're getting weirdo emails
I find it funny how every time Jon mentions how Bayern Munich went through a phase of playing like a Red Bull team, he brings it up like he's having a new thought.
Imho, having Ibrahim Konate next to VVD for defence is the key for Liverpool…
I’m 10 minutes deep into researching what a Bullard is… still not sure what it is. I’m either spelling it wrong or am really not sure what the fuss is about🤷🏻♂️
Boring
We love you JJ! this episode made me laugh despite having a very difficult day so thank you all!
definitely saying bullet
Deadwood is in South Dakota.
I've been coming back periodically about every 6 hours to listen to "why in did did they take the cheese" again, and it never stops being funny
Mo Salah Egypt's king
Mo Salah Egypt's king
I love Liverpool
The period man eating pigs scene may be father brown. In one of the episodes the evil old lady killed people and fed them to pigs
19:20 "Bournemouth -They'll beat them" Oh dear liverpool
Jon hilariously far more engaged than the last podcast where United won a (minor?) Trophy
I'm with JJ.
It's utterly pointless to pretend Munich will lose. The entire league is a feeder system for them.
It would be like Manchester City losing to the U15s
proof anyone can do a podcast
14:05 lmao
