  • Love the pod!

    Love the content! My favorite premier league podcast.

    Only feedback I hope you can fix is the audio from all Fozcast eps is very quiet compared to all other podcasts I listen to. Can this be fixed? I have to turn the volume up much higher for this podcast than all others I listen to, and I can’t listen on runs with open ear headphones.

  • Brilliant!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Former EFL Boss Reveals How He'd Punish Man City
Q: Is financial regulation holding clubs back? Or is it actually supporting clubs' sustainability and longevity?
Harvey says regulation can protect clubs from financial collapse, but he now believes it can stifle growth. He argues that owners investing their own money as equity could allow clubs greater freedom, while still leaving owners accountable if their club fails.
Former EFL Boss Reveals How He'd Punish Man City
Q: If you were still CEO right now, where would and what would your stance be on all of this?
Harvey says the issue should stay within the Premier League. He opposes relegation and proposes that Manchester City remain in the league but be unable to qualify for European competitions, allowing the club's squad and finances to adjust over time.
Jordan Pickford's Former England Coach Reveals His Secret to Success
Q: What was Gareth Southgate's directive to you with Jordan Pickford, for example? Would he demand you passed out from the back?
Margetson says the game should guide the decision. Southgate allowed England to play forward when a three-versus-three opportunity was available, while short build-up worked best when opponents were disrupted and not set to press.
Jordan Pickford's Former England Coach Reveals His Secret to Success
Q: Are we creating better goalkeepers now than what we were 20 years ago?
Margetson says the central issue is how goalkeepers are coached, not simply whether they are better. He believes some current coaching detail and philosophies are not producing better goalkeepers and can overlook fundamentals.
Adam Smith: Harry Kane, Playing at 35 & Bournemouth’s Transfer Secrets
Q: What has kept you playing at a high level into your mid-30s?
A combination of disciplined recovery, prioritizing rest, and living away from home to focus on training and performance, plus a mindset geared toward constant improvement and managing family life around football.
