Episode 3188: Inter Fort Lauderdale, Messi: Still Good
Maybe he picked the wrong week to be away. Last week brought probably the decisive matches of the Premier League and a fight pitting Ian Harte against all the League of Ireland managers. This weekend was the FA Cup, arguments about the quality of balls, a story about a player disrespectfully bringing his dog to training.
With the Champions League promising bigger things later in the week, Ken reviews his time in Miami and his trip to the really-quite-far-away Chase Stadium: did the jewel of South Florida live up to Will Smith’s billing?
We also talk about Manchester United’s latest defeat, as is tradition.

When I told my wife I was doing @SecondCaptains with @jonawils after Liverpool-Newcastle she said: “Do you actually ever stop talking?” https://t.co/34N2uRg885
