Jimbo welcomes along Duncan Alexander, Charlie Eccleshare and Adrian Clarke into the studio after a Champions League midweek full of drama and disappointment, and ahead of a Premier League weekend full of quirks.
Tottenham’s joyless Champions League campaign ends with the first ever 0-0 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, as Milan progress to the last 8. Do the club need a reset and who is the manager to replace Conte and rebuild?
Chelsea ease the pressure on Potter with victory over Dortmund as they keep their hopes of silverware alive. Did we see a new Potter and has he stumbled upon a starting 11 that he should stick with?
PSG suffer another last 16 exit. Julien Laurens tells us why the Parisians don’t have a strong enough squad and why Bayern Munich aren’t as good as they should be.
In the Premier League this weekend, leaders Arsenal travel to Craven Cottage with reason to fear Mitrovic, Solomon and co. And Man City are at Selhurst Park where they’ve had a hard time in the past.
Elsewhere we discuss Brighton chance’s of a top 4 finish and Evan Ferguson’s chances of a big money move.
Plus El Blockico, the king of the flick-ons and Adrian’s triple retake.
Produced by Charlie Jones.
