Jimbo’s got James Horncastle, Seb Stafford-Bloor, Pol Ballús and Julien Laurens with him as the Euro crew gear up for MD3 in the Champions League.


In La Liga, there were 15-second delays and it was the late show once again for Barcelona who had to rely on another stoppage time winner, this time against bottom of the table Girona. Real’s narrow 1-0 win at Getafe sets us up beautifully for Sunday afternoon’s Clásico…


It was goals galore in Ligue 1 as Marseille put six past Le Havre, while PSG and Strasbourg played out a 3-3 thriller on Friday night. So how will Luis Enrique’s side fare away at a resurgent Bayer Leverkusen on Tuesday night?


We’re running out of superlatives - and records for Harry Kane to break - after his latest goal in Bayern’s dominant 2-1 win over Borussia Dortmund. Plus, what hopes of Eintracht Frankfurt piling more misery on Liverpool when they go toe-to-toe on Wednesday evening?


And over in Italy, the title race continues to take turn after turn as Napoli and Juve dropped more points while the two Milan sides took advantage, with Serie A’s top four separated by just one point. Meanwhile, the controversy over the decision to plan Milan v Como in Australia isn’t going away…


All that plus (more) sumo chat, Potter’s return to Sweden - and lots of jesting about goals vs clean sheets.


Produced by Lucy Oliva.
