Not bitter, little bit disappointed

The European edition returns with your preferred pod posse of Jimbo, James Horncastle, Julien Laurens, Raphael Honigstein and Alvaro Romeo.

Lionel Messi becomes a PSG player and will be starring in Ligue 1. Why all the cynicism? Could Messi have made a more romantic move?

Feeling the absence of Messi are not just Barcelona but La Liga as a whole. No longer the league of stars.

New gaffers galore in Germany. Can Marco Rose’s Dortmund topple Julian Nagelsmann’s Bayern? Or what about Jesse Marsch’s Leipzig, the best squad in the Bundesliga?
