Liverpool lose again, Como score NINE + a big Premier League weekend Jimbo is joined by Natalie Gedra, Julien Laurens and Dan Kilpatrick after another mad Champions League night. Liverpool are beaten in Istanbul by Fenerbahce’s Premier League all stars team. Was it the right idea for Andoni Iraola to tinker with his team? Man City and Arsenal are victorious on the road and so too are Como. Very victorious. A record 9-1 win at Lens which shows their class and shows that the French side may have appointed the wrong manager. The Premier League weekend brings us what could be Michael Carrick’s last game in charge of Man United (at home to Villa) and Pierre Sage’s last game in charge of Palace (at home to Liverpool). Plus a beauty from Bellingham, why Spurs are back and who was Number 1 when Everton last played Coventry? Producers: Charlie Jones and Benji Brooks Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Could this be the start of Michael Carrick’s redemption arc at Old Trafford? Jimbo is joined by Jack Lang, Liam Twomey and Charlie Eccleshare after a crazy night in the Champions League. It was getting mutinous at Man United with the hosts 2-0 down against Roma having missed a penalty. Enter Matheus Cunha to turn 0 points into 3. Next up for United, Aston Villa at Old Trafford. Unai Emery’s side are eventually swept aside by swashbuckling Barcelona on Tuesday. Holders PSG are 4-0 up at Villarreal after 16 minutes, eventually running out 6-0 winners. And Bayern impress with a 2-0 victory at Atletico. Elsewhere, it’s more misery for the Magpies as Everton win at Newcastle yet again. And in the Championship, West Ham replace Nuno with Scott Parker!

The Euro Show is back to look ahead to another set of mouthwatering Champions League fixtures and discuss what’s been an enthralling weekend of action on the Continent. AC Milan continue their imperious recent record over city rivals Inter with a 3-1 win at San Siro. Christian Pulisic is yet again amongst the scorers against the Nerazzurri and that result means it’s Lazio who are now outright top of the pile in Serie A after 10 games. Gennaro Gattuso’s side and local rivals Roma, who go to Manchester United this week, are now the only two unbeaten teams in the league. Ballon d’Or winner Harry Kane misses a penalty and Fabio Silva scores a late equaliser as Dortmund hold Bayern to a 2-2 draw in Germany. The Bavarians stay top on goal difference ahead of Die Schwarzgelben, whose former striker Niclas Fullkrug STILL can’t stop scoring for Werder Bremen. Jude Bellingham scores his 50th goal for Real Madrid as they beat Racing Santander 3-0, while Barcelona get back to winning ways with a 6-1 victory over Alaves. But the attention is on Atletico boss Diego Simeone, who has won a record-equalling 344th La Liga game as a manager. It’s just the small matter of Bayern Munich in the Champions League next up for his side. And in France, Achraf Hakimi scores a hattrick and creates two assists, all from right-back, as a much changed PSG smash Le Havre 5-1 to maintain top spot in Ligue 1.

Another pivotal weekend in the Premier League, examined by James Richardson, Julien Laurens, Colin Millar and Adrian Clarke. Arsenal secure their first victory at Anfield in 14 years after a colossal defensive effort. They go 3 points clear at the top of the table. Brighton continue to impress with their first ever win at Manchester City. They couldn’t could they? Manchester United are winless in 9 matches after self-destructing at Chelsea. Lisandro Martinez conceding a penalty and getting sent off. They couldn’t could they? It’s three wins in a row for Spurs with pressure building on Pierre Sage at Palace. It’s six wins in a row for Bournemouth under Marco Rose. Plus we dare to discuss whether Emery would leave Villa. And whether Oliver Glasner would leave Forest.

Grumbles, beaches and goals - is Romário Brasil's greatest ever player? Jimbo is joined by Natalie Gedra, Jack Lang and Duncan Alexander to celebrate the unforgettable life and career of Baixinho (the little one). From Barca to Vasco via PSV, Romário scored and won things everywhere he went, tormenting defences with his turn of pace and dexterous finishing. Famed for scoring the goals that helped Brazil win the World Cup in USA 94, but also for the endless arguments and fallouts with coaches and teammates alike. But did he really score 1000 goals?

The top four all face each other in a mouthwatering Matchday 9 in the Premier League. Jimbo, Tom Williams, Liam Twomey and a debuting Jay Bothroyd are in the studio to comb through all the action. Champions Arsenal go to Liverpool in Sunday’s only fixture. The Gunners were knocked out of the Carabao Cup by League Two Fleetwood on Tuesday with Max Dowman sent off. But did the 16-year-old prodigy do the right thing? Michael Carrick is surprisingly still the manager of Manchester United. They travel to Stamford Bridge where Xabi Alonso has more questions to answer after Chelsea’s League Cup exit at Anfield. Man City come from behind twice to edge past Brighton via a shootout. Those two teams will do it all again on Saturday. Can the Seagulls claim their first ever win at City? Plus we show some love for Bournemouth who make it 5 wins in a row. And Nicolas Jackson.

On the pitch, Jose Mourinho’s Real Madrid become the first team to beat Barcelona in La Liga this season, with Kylian Mbappe scoring twice in a 2-1 win. That leaves Atletico Madrid just two points off the leaders. In Germany, Bayern win 3-1 at Freiburg without Vincent Kompany on the touchline as he recovers in hospital after collapsing during training. Niclas Fullkrug can’t stop scoring for Werder Bremen, while in Italy there are still four teams unbeaten after eight games for the first time ever.

Old Trafford chants his name but it could be farewell to Michael Carrick at Man United?

All that with Bruno Fernandes an unused sub. Brighton hit the skids after an Araujo-powered Liverpool reign supreme at Anfield. Spurs win at Stamford Bridge on Saturday - a once in a generation event - as Cole Palmer also sees red. Was this the day things finally clicked for De Zerbi at Tottenham?

It’s another Euro Show and there are more blockbuster Champions League fixtures to look ahead to. Jimbo is joined by James Horncastle, Tom Williams, Pol Ballus and Seb Stafford-Bloor as Barcelona travel to PSG and Bayern host Arsenal in Matchweek 3. Are they the four best teams in the competition? Barcelona have won 11 games in a row in all competition, with Lamine Yamal scoring another outrageous strike against Real Betis. There’s no Vinicius Jr for Real Madrid, but they still beat Sevilla 4-1. Why have Los Blancos released a statement attacking La Liga President Javier Tebas though? Bayern are back on top in Germany after a thumping 6-1 win over RB Leipzig. Harry Kane loves scoring against Arsenal, but he’ll have to do so without the help of suspended Michael Olise this time. In France, there’s a five way split at the summit after Monaco lose at Lorient. Are PSG starting to look inevitable? And in Italy, Lazio have made their best start to a Serie A season ever.

Jimbo has Daniel Storey, JJ Bull and Tim Spiers for company after Matchday 7 of the Premier League.

After a record-breaking night in the Champions League, Jimbo, Duncan Alexander, Jack Lang and Julien Laurens pore through all the goals and drama. The champions of Europe looked exactly that in the first half of the Etihad, racing into a 3-0 lead. Can anyone stop Luis Enrique’s side? And did Enzo Maresca get it wrong with his team selection? There are six goal hauls for Liverpool at LASK, where Bradley Barcola bags a hat-trick. And for Villa against Fenerbahce. Luis Miguel Echegaray drops in to discuss their biggest ever win under Emery. And Jose Mourinho returns to Rome with Real Madrid and takes all three points, despite being 3-1 down after 84 minutes. The Premier League brings intrigue this weekend with a must-win for Fulham, an unhappy hunting ground for Arsenal and a crunch clash between Leeds and Man United.

The Euro Show is back after an international hiatus and there’s plenty to discuss with the return of the Champions League and yet more headline making for Vinicius Jr. Jimbo is joined by James Horncastle, Tom Williams, Seb Stafford-Bloor and a special cameo appearance from Pol Ballus ahead of some blockbuster Champions League clashes. It’s all eyes on the Etihad Stadium as Manchester City host holders PSG. What’s been the reaction to City’s charges across the rest of Europe? Meanwhile, Jose Mourinho’s Real Madrid go to his former club Roma with both teams having had star attackers sent off over the weekend: Donyell Malen seeing red at Como, while Vinicius Jr is dismissed for pulling Villarreal midfielder Nathan Saliba’s hair. Julian Alvarez has parted company with his long-term agent. What might that mean for Manchester United’s chances against Atletico Madrid?
