The Overlap | Hoddle: Being Roy’s Hero, Managing England & A Second Chance In Life | Stick to Football EP 55

Totally agree. It’s an income stream for him that goes entirely against his core values. His whole career he hated doing media stuff, but since he failed as a manager/coach, he doesn’t have any other way to make as much money than doing punditry. And he’s so awful at it.
He’s a multi millionaire- I very much doubt he needs to do the punditry stuff. He just likes still being relevant and involved in the game. I think a lot of our ex players, that played under SAF, hate to see how far we’ve regressed and are naturally always pessimistic

Being a multi millionaire doesn’t mean you don’t need an income, especially these days.
 
They do the Overlap US one together. Think they just have so much stuff now that they need to divide time together. Actually think it points more to Gary trusting Carra more than them falling out.
Carra's wife is doing a series of marathons for charity, he's been taking time off to support her in that which is one of he reasons he's been away a lot recently, and fair play to him for admitting he couldn't dream of doing what she's doing
 


I liked the other Arsenal fan they usually have on. He was always calm and level headed.

They definitely need to find a different Chelsea fan. Rory is awful and it seems pretty obvious what he's doing, going out of his way to say outlandish takes so people can flood his social media platforms with hate.

The United fan seemed a bit downcast on the prospect of Amorim. I get it though, Ten Hag was also meant to be a young, exciting coach.

Rory is entertaining, well spoken and has ridiculous takes. Ofcourse, he's gonna do well in this industry. Think he was an actor before his YouTube career which explains why his delivery is so dramatic. :lol:

Do you have any others aside from Sophie?
 
I may go to the car to listen to this at lunch, could listen to Hoddle talk for hours without getting bored.

Yeah agreed. Love Hoddle, he might not be a particularly great pundit but in this sort setting, I could listen him to speak about football and his career/life all day.
 
I can’t decide if I like Glenn hoddle or not. Sometimes he seems like a really nice bloke, sometimes a bit partridge, sometimes a bit weird. Does he still think disabled people are paying for past sins?
 
Tuchel is England’s 12th manager since Hoddle. To have gone from Hoddle to Wilkinson and then, permanently, Keegan just shows how limited the mindset at the FA was at the time. Hoddle’ England scored, on average, 1.5 goals a game and conceded under 0.5 goals a game not nearly as good an offensive record (fewer whipping boys played those days) as Southgate but a significantly better defensive record.

His implosion was a huge loss to the national team. Post his recovery he seems to have a great outlook on life.

The England Italy game they referenced. Heart in mouth stuff right at the end.

They actually played some wonderful football here.
