Show Notes
It’s the return of the Euro pod with Jimbo, James Horncastle, Raphael Honigstein, Alvaro Romeo and Julien Laurens serving up the continental football chat.
Kylian Mbappe appears to be staying at PSG for the next couple of years after all. Luis Enrique’s new team will be looking for him to finish one of the thousand passes they’re putting together.
Harry Kane debuts for Bayern Munich but Thomas Tuchel and many others are worried about just how fragile the team appear to be after a Super Cup humbling by Leipzig.
It’s a scoring debut for Jude Bellingham in La Liga as the physicality of Real Madrid comes to the fore. Atletico are looking good but Barcelona take part in the dullest Spanish game ever.
And while Luciano Spalletti looks set to replace Roberto Mancini as Italy manager, we look ahead to the new Serie A season with a title race that’s too close to call.
