The Transfer Flow Podcast

Eddie Howe is out at Newcastle after five years, and Matthias Jaissle is the strong favourite to replace him. We break down what went wrong in his second season in charge, whether selling Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes actually suits the rebuild, and what Jaissle's tactical evolution at Al Ahli tells us about his fit in the Premier League.

Then onto transfers: Real Madrid closing in on Diamond and what it means for Vinicius, Liverpool's interest in Ezri Konsa amid a shaky back line, and Chelsea bringing in Danny Welbeck and Jordan Henderson to steady the dressing room. Enjoy!

Spain complete a dominant World Cup with the most one-sided final in decades, and Patrick and Neel break down exactly how they shut Argentina out of the game. They dig into Scaloni's team selection, why Argentina's long-ball approach failed, and whether this Argentina side ever deserved to be called the second-best team in the tournament. Then it's on to the transfer news: Chelsea's £117m deal for Morgan Rogers, whether the fee makes any sense, and what it means for their Financial Fair Play situation heading into the rest of the window.
