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.

We pit our obscure football knowledge against each other thanks to our friends over at The Football Game Co. How many forwards who played for Aston Villa can you name in 7 seconds? Does Adam Lallana count as a striker? And how did we forget Neil Mellor!?

If you fancy a copy of the game, remember to use our code ENGLANDB20 for a tasty wee discount.
