The Monchi's Men Podcast

Hey guys. This is our first summer with the podcast. With no matches happening, what kind of show ideas can you guys think of?

I thought about one episode on the kits over the years. Have @SurreySevilla on to talk about his collection and get your general thoughts on favorites, what really stunk, etc. This could be a fun group chat one.

Any other ideas?

The kit talk sounds nice - we could also chat about the 2021-22 season, plans, transfers etc.

But we could also talk about the international teams and many competitions this summer from Euro to Copa America to the Olympics.

If someone is up for Fifa 21 on PS4 we could do a tournament… I’d beat you all :yawning_face: with one eye closed.

Could give some deep dives into the new players coming in. It would help to get to know them and what they have done.

I would be down for some fifa. But it would be boring for you haha I am shite.

I really like the idea of kit talk. Transfers and getting to know the players that are rumored to come to the team.

If you guys get super desperate for content I think it would be cool to chat about the city itself.

I am in agreement with all of the topics that you mentioned here, and I would definitely be down for a FIFA tournament anytime!

I am keen to see how the Euro and the Copa America play out this summer, and it would definitely be great to hear content and discussions around these tournaments and the players that are on the Sevilla transfer radar. Also, with many of the current Sevilla squad players most likely to take place in these tournaments as well, it would be good to discuss their performances with their national teams as well as any transfer related news that could have been generated from their play in the tournaments. I am sure that we are all curious about what the future of Kounde will hold this summer, and I have a feeling that if he makes it into the France Euro 2021 squad and has a good tournament we may have to cash in on him this summer… :man_shrugging:t4:

I think there will be more than usual tournaments of football during this Summer but It’s a great idea to keep a podcast going. I’ll put the thinking cap on regarding topics for the ‘cold turkey, wot no Sevilla?’ Summer. AFter all, we’ll have next years kit to talk about by mid July.

Isn’t your wife from there? My wife is an EU citizen via Ireland and I got residency. It’s a lot of paperwork and BS but I got it eventually.

Technically not my wife, we never got married. I’m too cheap to buy a ring and she might say no. More so, she is not a Spanish citizen. Her mother was born there and holds dual and her grandmother of course is from there. I am trying to find out more about her eligibility to become a dual citizen which would open the door for me with some paperwork and you know…a ring. haha

Next week we have a special guest on. While he doesn’t have any direct ties to the team, he was/is an announcer and analyst for BeIN Sports here in the US. A product of :netherlands: , he spent a lot of time in the US as a player and manager. He also coached my favorite MLS squad. Anyway, Tomas Rogen will be on with us next week to chat about Sevilla’s season and La Liga in general. If you have any questions you would like to ask him please shoot them to me.

The Monchi’s Men pod took a few weeks off here. We were trying to get Thomas Rongan on, but his schedule is nuts right now with Copa, WCQ and MLS going on. He’s got lots of gigs.

Anyway, the latest episode of “We Are Sevilla” is pretty good. My friend Ray joins us to talk about Sevilla in the 80’s and 90s. https://open.spotify.com/episode/1LaggHt27n8nDvNZyZEhbk?si=34ZsCqkSTSOYxcDKW7KQng&dl_branch=1
