“As someone who watches and follows a LOT of world football, this show has always been amazing in bringing stories that not many would hear, but deserve to be heard. It’s a real shame that it’s been axed.”

“Listened to World Football consistently for the last 5-6 years, but I recall catching it in the early 2000s when I would travel to Europe. Always a great overview of the game, clever insights and also some stories I never would have otherwise learned about. A pity it will no longer be a weekly...”Read full review »

“Should go back to the old format. Was better when it was long form stories and reports from different parts of the world. Trying too hard to be Guardian Weekly and other football pods with this new format.”

“I’ve been a listener for approximately 5 years. But ever since Manny Jasmine (six) took the helm, the quality of the show, and the guests, has taken a dip. A less serious show than in prior years, with lots of banter from relatively unknown football professionals.
I sincerely hope that Manny can...”Read full review »

“I must say that I’m unsure on the new format but for years they’ve done some really interesting and nice stories from around the world of football. It’s a excellent podcast and has a back catalogue with fantastic episodes so I’d say dive deep and listen to a few, you won’t be let down.”

“This used to be a really interesting podcast with several informative and entertaining stories each week from around the world of football. It was something distinctive and different. Now it’s just another banal chat show like thousands of others out there already. Sad to say I’ll be happy...”Read full review »

“I really enjoy this podcast, however there is a tendency for it some weeks to focus heavily on English football. The main reason I listen to this podcast is so that I can hear about everything except English football. On the whole a good listen though”

“Great podcast with interviews with people others can't reach. The 2 'chats' with Sepp Blatter are incredible insights which I haven't found any where else in Podland.
There's also great stories and in depth coverage of all the developments in world football.
5* for content...”Read full review »

“Great variety of stories.
Really tries to be different . Really is a world focus.And as a result the depth and analysis is sometimes missing in the stories.
More opinion. More debate. More controversy. More insider news and insider facts and insider details.
Agents.
Salaries.

“Every week is either a story on racism or a story on corruption at FIFA.
Any chance you could talk about something else, maybe something related to what happens on the pitch? My heart sinks when another yet episode starts with another story about Sepp Blatter/FIFA/corruption/racism.
