So we are only midway through the week, but there is so much going on here behind the scenes. Of course we have two days of Champions League action to cover with the clubs from England flexing their muscle against some fairly weak opponents. Hate to call teams like AC Milan and Porto weak, but the fact of the matter is that after two legs, both teams made a sad exit from the tournament.
You would have to say that so far, the Champions League has produced some entertaining football. Whether they are goal-fests or a simple 1-1 draw, the Champions League ties have had some real exciting stories being weaved into the fabric of this tournament. We here at WFD are happy to simply talk about the tournament. Hopefully we can plan a great Champions League Final Viewing Party somewhere to gather the WFD Community together.
Thursday is a huge day here in studio. The entire crew is gathering at 4:30am PST to await the phone-call of one, Mr. Harry Redknapp, Manager of Tottenham Hotspur. For Premium content, subscribers to the show will be lucky enough to hear the exclusive interview that Steven and Kenny get with the manager who is pushing his squad for a top four finish. The battle for fourth is getting interesting and the opportunity of European football is a very likely possibility for some teams who can find some positive consistency in the Premiership. Tottenham's schedule proves to be incredibly difficult ahead with visits to Arsenal and United still slated in the near future.
We also bring you Tim Vickery and Henry Winter in the live show. Two men who know their stuff. You can catch Tim, representing all of South American football on the BBC's World Football Phone-In, which is part of Five Live's Up All Night Program. But Tim also has a Blog he writes for the BBC where he informs his reader on all things South American football, whether it is the national players being farmed out to go abroad, or the domestic leagues across the South American Continent, Tim can speak volumes on any and all subjects. Henry Winter, who recently won a Sports Journalism Award for his work, will be joining Steven and Kenny to break down the Champions League, as well as the Premiership.
All in all, you would be fooling yourself if you didn't join the new World Football Daily Premium. As if all the audio interviews were not enough... Kenny and the Interns head to the HDC for an exclusive interview with the new Chivas USA coach, Martin Vasquez. WFD always has the premium content on a regular basis for our subscribers. |
