Really enjoyed sitting down with @lifethroughball to discuss my version of Player Care, why learning about people is so important, how working in education taught me and gave me so much, and why everyone needs a champion. #playercare , shares appreciated. youtu.be/D-4nXrC02Pg?si=r-iv…

The game has never been just 90 minutes. It’s the music, the streets, the stories, the people behind it all. @vsrsus exists to bring those worlds together because football is culture, and culture shapes everything.

Guillem Balagué has told the stories of football’s biggest names. But how did those opportunities come around? Sometimes, it’s not just what you know… it’s who you know and believed in you.
