Jack’s Encyclopaedia: Ballon d'Or winners, Spaniards, and Europa League managers

0:0033 days, 33 episodes, no off switch. From the goals and the glory to the politics and the problems of the World Cup, if you want soccer analysis from a podcast that's been over-analyzing the game for more than 20 years, then this is it. Join me, Max Rushton, and our expert team of soccer journalists every day of the tournament. Can England end 60 years of hurt, or will this be another year of falling just short? Probably. World Cup Daily, listen wherever you get your podcasts, or watch full episodes on YouTube. This is going to be an extremely busy month. I have to watch 104 soccer games, follow the pregame, the postgame, yell useless opinions at the TV.

0:35It's a lot. So I knew that when it comes to screening for colon cancer, the choice was clear. The Cologuard Plus Test. It can be used at home and can only take 15 minutes. So I can do it during halftime and not miss any action. If you are 45 or older and at average risk, ask your healthcare provider about screening for colon cancer with the Cologuard Test. You can also request a prescription at Cologuard.com. In private markets investing, better judgment starts with better insight.

3:04The top 20 oldest players to play in this season's Premier League. James Milner. Yeah, I've got to be. OK, Jim. Oh, you got for us. Old fellas. Who looks creaky? It's Torres to give Chelsea a place in the Champions League. Oh, Captain fucking Tom.

3:27Dean Sniffle also says we're an encyclopedia of football. A what? An encyclopedia of football. I don't know what that means. Hello, everybody. Welcome to the Football Ramble. It's time for Jack's Encyclopedia. I'm Marcus Speller. I'm Luke Moore. And I'm Pete Donaldson.

4:00It's Friday afternoon, everybody. It's that time where we compete. Over to you, Games Master Pete Donaldson. Yeah, I like being part of people's Friday afternoons. Yeah, I love the idea that we're making a massive contribution into people, hopefully, in offices around the country and hopefully even around the world. Getting ready for the weekend. Getting out of work. Yeah. Pretending to work, perhaps even putting the old cabled headphone up their sleeve, leaning on their ear and listening to Jack's Encyclopedia or my BDR on the Football Ramble instead of doing the work they're paid to do. Or on a train home with a can.

4:29It's not affecting the economy because they still get paid and they'll spend that money in the pub afterwards. Good point. Yes, this is another round of Jack's Encyclopedia. I'm Mr. Referee today. The rest of you two will square off against one another. If you don't know the rules, it's really simple. It's a game of categories. I'll give you a category, then we will go around each of you to see if you can give me a valid answer. If you go too slow, you'll be hearing Gary Nibble's orgasm, which will leave you seven seconds to get involved. Marcus! Yes. You are currently the lineal champion of Jackson Cyclopedia.

4:58Does that matter in the grand scheme of things? I hope so. Right. I'd forgotten about it. If you go for five matches, are you going to cut your hair? I'll cut my hair and change my name. We all just want to be big rock stars. I want that belt bad. yeah the difference between me and some of the other slugs on this show is I'll go out there and say I want it he's got Oasis energy about it the Luke Nation want me to want it and I do want it he wants it all as the proud owner of a Bamboo Labs A1 3D printer I am considering modelling and printing out printing out a belt that'd be brilliant I'd need two belts though wouldn't I I'd need my biddy aunt and Jackson Sanpidio and they'd have to be exactly the same size because they'd have to be equally respected one size fits all exactly well I'm channeling Davy Crockett vibes because I'm going to be defending the Alamo you're not outnumbered it's one versus one you've got a whole nation Luke is going to be the Ozzy Osbourne and he's going to piss on it although I want to I want to say I'd like to have a different fate to what David Crockett had at the Alamo that Ozzy Osbourne accidentally pissed on I believe so wasn't it I think it was I've seen the Alamo Marcus is bitter about the Luke Nation because he tried to build up a kind of Marcus Mount Tim Henman type vibe that was a very different time whereas I think you'll find the Marcus Kingdom and it is a kingdom will win will be happy to defend us.

6:11We'll take on the kingdom, no worries. We're revolutionaries. Why don't you try and overthrow us, the nation. Spell the kingdom. Well, the Luke Nation is currently the MyBidiant champion after beating Vish last week. It's a different competition, but you're bringing European form into a cup competition. Let's get it right. I obliterated Vish last week. He did look very scarce. I obliterated him. But Luke will be unifying the belts if he wins today. So, heads on. I'm going to see your screen. I'm going to see your screen, mate. I'm just saying, be honest about it. I don't want to look at it. All right, fine.

6:39I don't want to look at it. I want to win but I want to win fair I've wrote it in Northeastern words I can't see the detail but I can see the format of the document which I've seen before when I've posted so I knew what it was I see also you've got a reflection in your glasses take them off it's an erotic poem I'm writing how dare you you're like Kim Kardashian playing poker and that mirrored shirt you're wearing it's a smock we talked about that earlier it's a smock right looky more apparently belts are important apparently being lineal champions important I'm going to start with you I'm the challenger you're the challenger sure you don't want to start with a champion give him a little edge a challenger look at him I'll stop no scratch that mind games I want it mind games mind games bruv Lucas yeah every male winner of the Ballon d 'Or since 1990 oh that's a nice one since 1990 1990 plenty of room plenty of room 23 of the fuckers I'm just going to go for one that I know Marcus will want to get so I'll go for Michael Owen that's a nice start it's a nice start isn't it 2001.

7:40Good year for everyone. Lionel Messi. Yeah, he may have bobbed that competition. Well, I might as well go for Ronaldo then. Cristiano Ronaldo. Yes, he's won it less five times. Go for Luka Modric. Good one. Oh, I like it. 2018. Fabio Cannavaro. Well played. Beautiful boy. Kakar. Yes. 2007. I actually know who won it in 1990 and it was Luther Matthias Luther Matthias Luther Matthias from the Lotharian church

8:21there's a lot of names here and I'm thinking there was that FIFA Player of the Year award and then the Ballon d 'Or I'm pretty sure though Ronaldinho won it yeah he has 2005 that's some lovely names in here well Usman Dembola we haven't said yeah a good one literally last week a good one I'm quite sure oh or am I what have you got for us Marcus this is the frustrating thing that bloody FIFA I think George Weyer won it 99 it's 90 yeah he did I don't hate that naughty noise of yours 1995 I wouldn't have to bolster against that. A risky one, isn't it? I'll go Zinedine Zidane. He must have won. Surely.

9:1398. Yeah. Getting low now. How many are left? How many are left? Because of Ronaldo and Messi. 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. 12 are left. 12 are left. Plenty. Plenty of juice from him. I saw him holding an individual award. Andrei Shevchenko. 2004. Well done. Yes. That's fucking excellent, mate. Andrei's individual award. I'm running, the well is running dry here now. I'm going to have an educated guess at the original Ronaldo, R9. Surely he did. He's definitely the best player in the world at one point. Surely he did. He won it twice, 97, 2002. Yeah. Now it's tricky, isn't it? It is tricky. Ronaldo was the last one I had really that was the, which I was fairly confident.

9:55To shoo in. Yeah. We've done, I've got to cut that. Over 10, I think. So let's, let's, let's, let's go with, let's go with, Romario Romario interesting okay you'd be wrong is that a point to me you'd be wrong thank god for that I had nothing left don't tell me Marco Laudrup won it that was the other one I had no Marco van Basten won it in 1992 did he Christos Deutschkoff you could have had so that was probably the Romario year around there Jean-Pierre Papa yeah Karen Benzema you could have had Pavel Njedved of course Benzema won it there was a big lobbying for him wasn't there that's right Rivaldo 1999 Rivaldo would have been a banker the ponytail Roberto Baggio in 1993 Luis Figo Marco Bambas as discussed Mattia Sammer in 1996 Sammer and Rodri in 2024 of course Rodri should have got Rodri yeah Rodri I've got the point there I cannot tell you that was skin of the teeth stuff I had nothing left I had nothing to go after that that's how it goes any sort of wild cards that you would have brought to the table well the ones I said is Romario because you're thinking 94 World Cup I can't remember I'm pretty sure he won the Golden Ball at the World Cup he's very visible in the Champions League yeah exactly so you're kind of thinking about that and Michael Laudrup was the other one but both of them should have got Rodri Rodri was poor and Matthias Sammer I should have got because I was having a debate with someone about whether he counted as winning it as a defender or not because Cannavar and Beckenbauer won it as defenders and people say they're the only two defenders but Sammer was a sweeper for quite a large part of his career his performances at Euro 96 would have presumably helped him get that as well I'm not sure what year he won it 96 it would have been around that doesn't matter doesn't matter you got the point alright round number two some lovely names to hear it makes you realise again with Messi and Ronaldo dominating it Cristiano Ronaldo it's a bit of a shame in a way isn't it yeah exactly but again though like the FIFA World Player of the Year was another rule which obviously was the combined so anyway we'll do Dino and our solo fame soon it was a classic Jackson encyclopedia round that round number two Marcus we're starting with you the starting 11 and substitutes for Liverpool in their 2016 Europa League final loss against Sevilla oh bloody hell that's a tough one arch Daniel Sturridge one for the heads hang on yep he was in there 2016 starting 11 and substitutes for Liverpool presumably Simon Mienle was in goal oh yes he was certainly involved anyway

12:19oh bloody hell this is what I hate about these I've got loads I don't know if they're right but I've got loads you go back like 10 years or whatever it was and you kind of go am I going back 15 years it's hard it's really hard yeah it's that real sort of hinterland with this squad, isn't it? I've got a lot of guesses. Here you go. Bloody hell fire.

12:40I'll say... Was he still playing there? The subs as well is helpful. Because I've no idea who started. I can't remember. But the subs as well. That squad around that time I think is quite... It's fairly straightforward. Yeah. Not for me. Not for Marcus. I'd love to hear that, Neville. I'm really struggling here. He's a very champion so he gets a little bit of a... He's like a boxer towards the end. He doesn't have to have it stopped. I'm struggling so much with this. Jordan Henderson. Gotta be. Standard, Marcus. Well done, mate. Got there in the end. Very generous timekeeping. Maybe he's back in the game.

13:12Roberto Firmino? Oh, he would have been or would he? Yes. Yeah, okay.

13:19Who have we got then? Would they have signed it? Would he have been? This was a later signing. 2016, did you say? Yeah. Joel Matip. oh oh Marcus nice to hear his name oh oh Marcus Beller so I need to get one you just need to get one and you've got a big list I can see your big list I've got a little I don't know if they're right or not though hunky list because the problem with this stuff is you don't know whether someone got an injury or whatever or suspended or won't part of the squad that's frustrating because I went up to Liverpool's training ground on a previous job and did an interview with Joel Matip and I was thinking and it was around that time so it must have been the few months after that summer so Emre Can I thought so I thought that's fairly safe yes round to Loki Mo do you want to hear the ones I had see if they're any good Skirtle Martin Skirtle Lucas Laver was still there then yes hang on I haven't finished Divock Origi so excited Philip Coutinho yeah and James Milner see that's annoying Coutinho I was not sure and Skirtle and then I thought oh hang on I chatted to Matip but it was obviously they signed him the summer after that that is unlucky but that's the things that stick in your head though isn't it like those personal experiences with Joel Matip inexplicably I just haven't heard Matip's name for such a long time you could have it's an implausible second name Matip it really is Adam Lallana Alberto Moreno Christian Benteke of course Danny Ward Danny Ward Jim Cabo special Lovren Origi Milner as discussed I think Joe Allen Colatore Lucas Lever Skirtle was in there Nathaniel Klein and Coutinho so well done Nathaniel Klein I forgot he was there yeah alright poor from me there struggling 2-0 down you are struggling this game but look the weight of the Luke Nation is really pushing on me I'll do it next week the unified belt it's the spectre of the unified belt I'm doing it for the nation
