I should point out that the bonus question refers only to European players, of course.

Is Sven saying "Ulrika is looking a bit rough these days" or maybe "The shirts may be green now but the shorts will be brown by the time I'm finished" or "I've always followed Mexican football and look forward to learning Portugeuse".

As for the quiz, I reckon The Divine Ponytail, R. Baggio, played at three World Cups and no Euros. And was it Neville Neville's son Phillip who achieved the opposite ?

Keep up the good work.

Hope El Salvador have a better match in the return leg.

I'd like to second blackcomyn's thoughts... the podcast strikes the balance between being a great "voice" of the fans but with insight more befitting professional journos.
