Stadio: A Football Podcast

With the European seasons well underway, it was a weekend where many contenders suffered dropped points or upsets.Musa and Ryan begin with a quick dart around some of these games, including Real Madrid’s defeat to Betis, Atleti losing at Athletic Club, Bayern dropping points and PSG’s winless start continuing. They then turn to Arsenal and Chelsea, who played out a hugely entertaining headline fixture at the Emirates, which the Gunners came through victorious (11:13). After analysing the game itself, some changes to Mikel Arteta’s side this season and the way they’ve evolved, they then move on to some chat about Chelsea (28:13). Despite the defeat, they were plenty of things for Xabi Alonso, as well as Chelsea fans, to feel encouraged about, especially missing a key part of their midfield in Moisés Caicedo.There’s a big shout out for Hull City (40:44), who continued their unbeaten start, and some other results, including Everton’s late equaliser against Manchester United and more late drama in Serie A.The Champions League is back this week, so it's a perfect time to sign up as a member at https://www.patreon.com/stadio.You'll get two extra episodes this week, plus access to every single episode, ad-free and in full.For more podcasts, ad-free and in full, plus access to the Stadio Social Club and much more, you can become a Stadio member by signing up at patreon.com/stadio.

A fairly quiet Sunday then, with nothing too eventful happening in the Premier League.Musa and Ryan begin with a quick chat about Arsenal’s 1-0 win over West Ham (03:52) at the London Stadium, which had a big impact at the top and bottom of the table. Yes, they also chat about that decision, but probably less than it’s been discussed elsewhere.They then head onto the main topic, which is Barcelona’s 2-0 win in the Clásico (16:20), to secure a successive La Liga title and to make a very difficult Real Madrid week even worse. They praise the job Hansi Flick has done at Barça, as well as the players who have brought the club out of one of the most chaotic periods of its recent history.

Ryan desperately wanted to do three hours on the Copa del Rey final, which he was at, so there will be a Patreon show on Wednesday all about Real Sociedad’s first trophy in front of fans since 1987.However, Manchester City beat Arsenal 2-1 at the Etihad on Sunday, so he and Musa focus their attention there for much of today’s show. There’s chat about what was a wonderful game, where both sides could feel lucky and unlucky on certain refereeing decisions, as well as lucky and unlucky on how certain chances fell. There were obvious positives for Manchester City, who closed the gap to three points and who can go top if they beat Burnley this week. But, despite the understandable disappointment, there were many positives to take for Arsenal, who will be frustrated about not stealing a point at the end.After that, there’s some round-ups and shout outs for the rest of the Premier League, plus Bayern winning the Bundesliga and more!For more podcasts, ad-free and in full, plus access to the Stadio Social Club and much more, you can become a Stadio member by signing up at patreon.com/stadio.

Musa’s on his travels, so there’s a bit of chat up top about him leaning into a Stadio bit. Then he and Ryan chat about this weekend’s FA Cup fifth round (07:17), which saw another amazing result for Port Vale, who knocked out Sunderland. Southampton also caused an upset, with a late win at Fulham, while Arsenal got past an impressive Mansfield side. They round up the rest of the results, which saw Liverpool, Chelsea, Leeds and Manchester City progress, before a quick trip to Germany (22:13) to shout out some results and chat briefly about the news that Julian Brandt will leave Dortmund at the end of the season.Then it’s time to turn the attention to the Derby della Madonnina (30:13), where Milan completed the double over Inter for the first time since 2010/11, reducing the lead at the top of Serie A to seven points, with ten games to go.Finally, there’s a Champions League look ahead (40:52), with the round of 16 first legs taking place this week.March is our spring Patreon push, so to get 30% off your first month, go to patreon.com/stadio and use promo code SPRING at checkout!For more podcasts, ad-free and in full, plus access to the Stadio Social Club and much more, you can become a Stadio member by signing up at patreon.com/stadio.
