Dotun, Nicky Bandini and David Cartlidge dive into your curious continental queries, and they begin with another edition of what seems to have become an annual question: should Atlético Madrid be searching for Diego Simeone’s replacement?

Elsewhere, we discuss the chaotic mess at Roma, who were dusted up by a former academy prospect at the weekend, and look over Francesco Faroili’s encouraging start at Ajax. Plus, Mario Balotelli’s back in Italy - but can he rediscover that magic?
