    A Lambasting from van Basten

    A Lambasting from van Basten

    In our first episode, Paddy reminisces about Zidane being a gentleman, Samuel Eto'o being rude and Marco van Basten being angry. We also find out about the surprisingly Rock and Roll life of one of English football's most sedate managers and Paddy has some controversial opinions on Trent Alexander-Arnold's defensive capabilities.

    We want to hear from you! What do you like? What do you want more of? Do you have any questions for Paddy?
