Marcus, Luke, Jim and Vish wish Gordon farewell and also celebrate James Milner’s remarkable career after he announced his retirement. Plus, the gigachads at Real Madrid look to have done the unthinkable: José Mourinho is set to become their next manager.
I’ll say that again, in the year of our lord 2026: José Mourinho looks set to manage Real Madrid again, thirteen years after he left the first time.
