On this episode of the Churros y Tácticas Podcast, Diego Lorijn joined Kiyan Sobhani to discuss:

  • Everything that's happening in Catalunya, and the domino effects from it
  • Bartomeu's decision to play the match behind closed doors
  • The actual match: Las Palmas playing well but helpless by the end of it
  • Denis Suarez having a great season
  • Real Madrid's match against Espanyol, their struggles at home as opposed to their 'comfort' away from the Bernabeu
  • Mateo Kovacic's timeline
  • The gong show at Anoeta: Guardado on another level, Joaquin contributing, Sergio Leon (monster), Sanabria, Fabian; and on the flipside, Diego Llorente, Willian Jose, Odriozola
  • Iago Aspas under Unzue
  • Athletic Bilbao's European hopes taking a blow with Iker Muniain's injury
  • Valencia continuing to prove their legitimacy (although Diego is still skpetical)
  • And much more!
