More than matchday

The Rest is Football: Premier League Greats: The Moments That Made Them podcast feels like settling into the dressing room after a match and listening to three football mates relive the biggest moments of the week. Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer and Micah Richards have built a winning formula: Lineker keeps the conversation flowing, Shearer offers the straight-talking striker's perspective, and Richards brings energy, humour and plenty of banter.

In Cristiano Ronaldo, the hosts zone in to discuss the rise from a flashy teenage winger at Man Utd to one of football's greatest goal scorers. The episode showcases the podcast's strengths. The discussion moves naturally between tactical analysis, personal memories and light-hearted moments - from Ronaldo's outrageous stepovers and thunderous free kicks to debates about whether he's the greatest player ever to grace the Premier League. (Sorry, Gary, Alan, Micah, no.)

The show's knowledgeable without becoming overly technical, entertaining without losing sight of the football. The hosts' chemistry is undeniable, and their stories from playing and broadcasting at the highest level give listeners a ringside view. For footie fans going into the last bend - whether this season's Premier League or ISL - this ball's for you.
