This is just my overall thoughts of the current status of our athletes as they prepare for the 2020 Olympic Games ( for those that have qualified that is ) and for those that are looking at qualifying for the games. Honest thoughts, if the current status quo continues prevail then we are definitely coming back empty handed from the games. Preparations have been long overdue, some athletes are still injured and other associations haven't shared their progress on how they plan to get their athletes to Tokyo.   

This second episode of the year 2020 focuses around the incredible run that Liverpool FC is currently on in the English Premier League and Champions League.
