The Overlap ·

2021/07/01

Was Monday, June 28th, 2021 the most entertaining day in international tournament history? We'll stay away from "the greatest", but it has to be up there in terms of pure entertainment. This week, we go into detail on the knock out rounds of the Euros, including everything from England getting one back on Germany for WWII (7:45), the Spain-Croatia and France-Swiss debaucheries (23:45), previewing Belgium-Italy and why Denmark should absolutely not be slept on (51:45). Oh, and don't forget that

Episode 118: Shameless Twerking

2021/06/02

Well, Chelsea really did da ting. Champions of Europe in 2021 - a sentence unthinkable to Chelsea fans just 6 months ago, but a well deserved medal for them. As Kai Havertz said post-match, "I don't fucking care, we just won the fucking Champions League". This week we review the final, the line up, and our post-match thoughts on what the result means for both teams. We go on to talk about what we learned from this whole season, not just exclusive to the Champions League, but all-around. Lastly, we

The Overlap ·

2021/05/28

It's been a wild ride in La Liga this season and for the Spanish seasons in Europe. From early and dramatic Champions League ties/heartbreak to Europa League glory, we take a look back at some key moments and focus in on the last two weeks. How exactly did Atletico Madrid get to the title? Have we been too harsh on them? We also go over the changes expected at Barcelona and Real Madrid as well as Luis Enrique's ~questionable~ choices for the Euros this summer.

Episode 115: This is Too Difficult

The Overlap ·

2021/05/21

The last Premier League weekend of the season is upon us and, in some ways, good riddance to a season largely without fans, filled with VAR controversies, exhausted players, and Super League drama. We didn't even have much time to get to the La Liga stuff this week, but we DID present our Premier League Team of the Year! Before that though, we go over some of the last remaining question marks around what has yet to be determined in the Top 4 race.

The Overlap ·

2021/05/14

It really is the hope...massive, massive dropped points for Barcelona over their last 3 games while Atletico and Real Madrid continue to pick up points has seen the Catalans virtually all but drop out of the title race. This week in Spain, we go over the games this past weekend where the Top 4 sides all played each other, the mid-week games, and who is most likely (in our humble opinions) to go on and win the La Liga title (spoiler: we don't actually agree on this one).

2021/04/27

Well, the Super League is dead...for now. This week in England, we go over the aftermath of the Super League's "demise", at least in it's current form, the League Cup Final, and a massive weekend for Chelsea (not so much for Liverpool). Towards the end, it's only fair that we clown all over Arsenal.

Episode 109: The Super League

The Overlap ·

2021/04/21

So much has transpired over the last 3 days, we don't even know where to start. Given how confusing everything with the Super League is, we'll touch on what the Super League actually is, arguments for the Super League from the POV of the 12 clubs, arguments against the Super League from the POV of...everyone, and recent updates to round it out.

The Overlap ·

2021/03/25

Barcelona put in arguably one of their best performances in years, Real Madrid continue to show why they're the kings of Europe over the last 5-6 years (but maybe not in Spain?), and Atletico Madrid are on the brink of a mental implosion. What does this mean for the rest of the La Liga season? Do Real Madrid have a chance at European AND domestic glory? Oh, and also Sevilla's keeper scored a worldly this past weekend...it really was a beautiful day.

We go over not just the Manchester Derby, but also Chelsea's big win against Everton, what another Liverpool loss means for them (and the relegation battle - with a special guest), and whether or not Gareth Bale is finding a return to form.

What better way to celebrate our 100th episode with one of Barcelona's best weeks (on and off the field) in years! This week, we go over the recent run of good form for the Catalans, why Real Madrid have kept stuttering in the league, and what Atletico's chances are of going on to win the title. With the Madrid Derby coming up this weekend, we make our picks for who comes out on top. Meanwhile, we also take a look at the Pichichi race as well as a look at Villareal's woes and Real Betis' race for
