Summary

It's a World Cup special on Finding a Football Club this week, as the lads look ahead to the 2026 edition with a 6-round draft. The rules are simple: pick the best nations, rack up the most points, and try not to embarrass yourself. Once the clock starts, Jay bets the house on Donald Trump rigging the tournament, Will accidentally drafts three teams from the same group, and Roberto experiences genuine buyer's remorse upon discovering who actually manages Portugal. Plus, the gang tackles the burning issues of modern international football. Does Ronald Koeman look like a giant baby? Is Guillermo Ochoa immortal? And which draft pick resembles the desperation of being on the prowl in a nightclub?
