Bombazo LaLiga Podcast Episode 20: Braithwaite scores first in 2020, Abelardo-Espanyol shock Barça, plus the Depor crisis analysed

Bombazo: The Scandinavian LaLiga Podcast

In the first episode of 2020 Alex is joined by two guests. First Semra Hunter who you normally can see over on LaLiga TV. And then by Galician Dani Mendéz who is the pitch side reporter in San Sebastian and Eibar for LaLigaTV/Movistar.
With Semra we discuss the following:

– Martin Braithwaite only needed 4 min to score in 2020, how important is he for Leganés and can he save them from relegation

– Espanyol shocked Barcelona with a 2-2 draw in the first game of Abelardo, is he about to create another "Alavés miracle"? And is Barça too dependent on Lionel Messi?

– Semra saw Ødegaard as a 16 year-old in Madrid and met him again this season in San Sebastian, how much has he changed and just how good is the Norwegian?

With Dani Mendéz we discuss the following:

– In the early 2000's SuperDepor won LaLiga, Copa del Rey and almost made the Champions League final. Now Deportivo are last in Segunda and in huge debts.. what happened? Can one of Spain's historic clubs disappear or is there a way out?

– What do the local fans in San Sebastian think of Martin Ødegaard and Alexander Isak, is the Norwegian the biggest star of the club and will Isak steal the starting spot from Willian José?
