Welcome back to Season 2 of The England B Team Podcast! We’ve got a new set of threads as we gear up to take this podcast to the next level in 2024. 

But to kick the New Year off, we’ve got a topic very close to our wee adopted German hearts; Crazy German Goalkeepers.

From Oliver Kahn getting arrested three times in one day for speeding (in 2 different countries) to Jens Lehmann taking a chainsaw to his neighbours tree, the Germans do an unhinged keeper better than anyone. 

Also a huge thank you to Gareth Gra for our new logo, intro video and anything else you see new in our graphic designs. You can find his website at ggra.me or hit him up on IG @garethgra

Cheers,
