It's fair to say that 1-1 doesn't nearly tell the full story of Roma's draw with Milan. A pulsating game between the two sides vying with Inter for the title ended level, but what does it tell us about the state of play in Serie A?

Nicky Bandini joins Andy for the debrief. Have Milan shown they're not yet ready for a title challenge? Are Roma on their way to becoming something quite special? And has this opened the door for Inter to run away with it?

It was around 8:30pm when the referee blew the final whistle in the Aspmyra Stadion, marking the most historic night in Bodø/Glimt's existence: a 3-1 win against Pep Guardiola's Manchester City. The night and the celebrations that followed will live long in the memory, but as Bodø stare down the barrel of certain elimination from the Champions League, could they have done more in the competition?

Nicky Bandini joins Andy and Dotun to answer that plus more of your continental queries! The guys ponder Barcelona's potential vulnerability, Ethan Nwaneri's loan to Marseille, and how Jean-Philippe Mateta could potentially fit into Luciano Spalletti's Juventus.

Bayern Munich just will not stop winning! So why isn't anybody talking them up as genuine Champions League challengers? With Vincent Kompany's side second in the league phase, and 11 points top of the Bundesliga, do they have what it takes to bring Europe's top prize back to the Allianz Arena this May?

Nicky Bandini joins Dotun and Andy to debate that. Plus, why are Monaco and Marseille letting the side down when it comes to French clubs impressing in Europe, and just how important could Donyell Malen be for Roma after his stellar Serie A debut?

If you're sitting second in Serie A, January should be about strengthening for a title push - not gambling on an out-of-form, injury-prone striker. Yet, AC Milan have done exactly that with the loan signing of Niclas Füllkrug. Is he worth the risk?

Lars Sivertsen joins Dotun and Andy to debate that. Plus, are French clubs at risk from the multi-club model? Will Roma’s big bet on Robinio Vaz pay off? Has Roberto De Zerbi's time at Marseille boosted or damaged his job prospects? And why have Ajax signed Zlatan Ibrahimović's son?

Eight months was all it took for Xabi Alonso to be given the boot by Real Madrid. Was he doomed from the very start? Is Álvaro Arbeloa the man to replace him in the long-term? And have we got the stage where Real Madrid need to address a fundamental identity crisis?

Those are the questions Dotun, Andy & Lars Sivertsen are here to mull over. Plus, Bayern Munich continue their dominance in the Bundesliga, so how far can Vincent Kompany's side go this season? And finally, Paris FC get an historic derby victory over city rivals PSG. Are they genuine challengers for the Parisian crown?

The goals were raining down in Jeddah on Sunday night! Barcelona won an absolute cracker of an El Clásico in the Supercopa. 3-2 it finished to Barça, leaving Xabi Alonso and his Real Madrid side licking their wounds.

So how big of a turning point is this in both of their respective seasons? Is time up for Alonso, or did the performance show that there are still some green shoots poking their way through the Bernabéu turf?

It's fair to say the appointment of Liam Rosenior at Chelsea hasn't gone down well with the fans of RC Strasbourg. In fact, their own supporters labelled the move "another humiliating step in Strasbourg’s subservience to Chelsea." Oof. Not a great look.

Miguel Delaney joins Dotun and Andy to share their thoughts on what the appointment means for the future of BlueCo and Strasbourg. Plus, Gonzalo García stars for Real Madrid and Fabio Paratici gets a new gig at Fiorentina, but can he keep them up?
