episode The Top 10 Strikers of the Last 20 Years cover

Description

This week on Finding a Football Club, the five-part epic finally grinds to a halt as the lads assemble the ultimate Top 10 Strikers since 2005. With Jay returning from paternity leave, the full roster is back together to crown the greatest Number 9 of the modern era. Naturally, it takes about three minutes for the civil war to commence. The lads clash over Didier Drogba, Sergio Aguero (what else is new?), and whether Robin van Persie spent his entire career "pumping spastics". Elsewhere, someone refuses to accept Karim Benzema as anything more than a glorified one-season wonder, Jay frantically Googles random ‘Top 50 Strikers’ lists to find one that cites Henrik Larsson, and the gang somehow forget Edison Cavani exists.

France vs Senegal Watchalong

This time on Finding a Football Club, alternative commentary is back on the menu. Luke (battling severe hayfever) and Will (battling severe delusion) sit down to watch France vs Senegal. Naturally, the live football takes a backseat as the boys dissect every other World Cup result so far; leaving Luke sweating over his rapidly crumbling 48-team Big Board. Meanwhile, following a shock Socceroos win, Will is suddenly feeling more Australian than Jason Donavan throwing shrimp on the barbie. His newfound patriotism could explain the frankly bonkers tournament bracket, where he sends Australia and Saudi Arabia through to the Last 16 and geriatric Croatia to the final four. Elsewhere, the duo slander hydration breaks, play a 2020 Champions League final edition of Goalless, and create a 38-0 team that relies on the talents of Rory Delap. Sacre bleu.

Mexico vs South Africa Watchalong

The 2026 World Cup has officially kicked off, and Finding a Football Club is here to provide the ultimate alternative commentary. Luke and Roberto suffer through the opening game, so you don’t have to. While Mexico comfortably secure a 2-0 win to cash Luke's (some say genius) bet, the lads are more interested in Salma Hayek’s billionaire husband, question why Paul Bettany used 9/11 to propose to Jennifer Connelly, and disagree on the talent of Mark Lawrenson. Roberto steals the show with an anecdote from his local cricket club involving an oblivious 19-year-old, a girlfriend currently in labour, and a biological father who has conveniently fled to Tunisia. Plus, the boys test their obscure football knowledge with a few rounds of Goalless, simulate their 38-0 teams, and rattle through their definitive World Cup brackets.

The 2026 World Cup Preview

This time on Finding a Football Club, with the 2026 World Cup just days away, Luke takes the reins to guide Roberto and Jay through a worryingly comprehensive preview. The centrepiece of the episode is Luke’s monolithic 48-team big board, where he’s meticulously ranked every single nation heading to North America. Leaving Jay fuming at the disrespect shown to Scotland. Plus, the lads lay down their official tournament predictions. Sticking their necks out to name their Golden Boot, Golden Ball, Golden Glove and Best Young Player winners. Alongside their ultimate tournament surprise packages, runners-up and eventual winners. The receipts are officially locked in, the predictions are signed in blood, and there is absolutely nowhere to hide.
