Don’t call it a comeback; much like ourselves, many famous footballing icons have came back when you least expect them. Like an ex sending you a “Happy New Year! :)” message, a return to familiar territory can be a risk and a comfort.

So from Mourinho and Drogba to Ramos and Peter Thompson, we look at our favourite footballing comebacks, and what makes the romance of it all so great.

The England B Team may not be podcasting as much anymore, but we’re very open to collabs, projects and whatever else you have in mind.

Big love x
