114 Out of 115 | Money, Power and the Modern Game

This episode opens with the Bodega Babies monthly awards — Player, Manager, Breakout, Goal, Save, Flop and Team of the Month, along with Young Player of the Month, a category that feels particularly relevant given how many teenagers are breaking into first teams right now. That leads into a wider conversation about why clubs are trusting 16 and 17-year-olds with first-team football earlier than ever, and whether that's good for the game. From there we ask whether money has fundamentally changed football, look at Manchester City's reported 115 charges verdict and what it could mean for the club going forward, question who actually holds power in football between FIFA, UEFA, leagues and clubs, and close by asking whether the modern calendar has simply become too crowded.
