The Footglish Podcast: Learn English with Football

🇨🇿 Czechia’s Nations League squad is out — but there are plenty of questions to discuss!
In this episode, I look at the most interesting talking points surrounding Santi Denia’s first squad as Czechia’s new head coach.
How much pressure is Denia really under? Do Czechia stand any chance against Croatia, England and Spain? What’s happening with Patrik Schick? And which players were surprisingly left out of the squad?
We also look at the expectations surrounding the team and whether the lack of pressure could actually work in Denia’s favour.
A packed episode of Czech football, big questions and plenty of useful football English! ⚽🇨🇿

⚒️ What does it take to become a West Ham legend?
In this episode, I’m joined by Clive, a lifelong West Ham fan, to remember Luděk Mikloško — a true West Ham legend who has sadly passed away.
We talk about how Ludo earned legendary status at the club, the famous chant West Ham fans sing about him, and the emotional tribute paid to him by Tomáš Souček at the London Stadium ahead of the League Cup game against Fulham.
We also look at West Ham’s season so far in the Championship and discuss how the club is doing and what the future might hold. A tribute to a West Ham legend, with plenty of football talk along the way. ⚒️

⚽ Sparta Prague are struggling right now.
In this episode, I talk to Ben, my teenage student and a massive Sparta fan, about the club’s disastrous start to the Czech league season.
Three wins, three defeats and 10th place simply isn’t good enough for Sparta. Should Brian Priske be sacked? What can be done to turn things around? And what needs to change? We discuss all of this — and try to figure out how Sparta can get back on track. 🔵🟡🔴
You'll learn the difference between these words:
