25/26 is, can you believe it, over - at least where the clubs are involved. To mark the passing of another season, Tom Curren sat down with Jake Entwistle and Llew Davies to discuss how SCOUTED's processes have changed over the past ten-or-so months. What trends have they noticed? How have their ideas developed? How have they deepened the way they work together as a mini recruitment team?

Our conversation covers Archetypes, the rise of ball carrying, the subsequent revival of line-breaking passing, and a bunch of really fascinating insights the team have taken from the past year. Enjoy.

On this episode Tom has a conversation with SCOUTED's Chief Scouting Officer (fake title) Llew Davies to break down the four midfielders included in our latest magazine: Kees Smit, Pablo Barrios, Victor Froholdt and Kennet Eichhorn. Includes an exclusive freakout over a big thunderstorm.

Volume II is here! For the new magazine, I wanted to talk to scouts and analysts about how they're thinking about football's enduring centre: the midfield. So I enlisted The Athletic's Jon Mackenzie and SCOUTED's Jake Entwistle for an academic discussion about the midfield's tactical developments, and how they're changing the kinds of players we're seeing break through today.

Thanks for listening - I hope you love Volume II if you pick it up!

Tom & Jake discuss how Archetypes are made, their role in modern football, and go deep on Rogers' career, all while staving off threat from a rogue washing machine and a cat desperate for attention.
