In this podcast, this will be a new feature that I am adding. Although it is great to offer takes in regards to the latest goings on in the world of football, there comes a time when you have to look elsewhere for different voices and opinions.

Would he go back to India? What was his greatest accomplishment? All this and more in this first interview on #HavingAChat.
