#55 - Are You For Villarreal?

On this week’s pod, we decided to ‘target’ the target forward role, which has seen somewhat of a resurgence with the whole meaty man meta going on in FM22. Doop also brings us up to speed with the final leg of his pentagon journey. The quiz also makes a return, with Mr Madden on quizmaster duty!
