Episode notes

I think he should win the Ballon D'Or this year. He probably should have won it last year as well. Messi's been absolutely mediocre since he's left Barcelona. Muhammad Salah? Is he climbing up to be scoring? I don't know. It doesn't mean that I've gotten so much criticism for saying Christian out in Kishan or no, there's not in the top five. That's another discussion we should get into.
