We were served up quite the treat last night, weren't we? Barcelona and Inter played out a stunning six-goal thriller at Montjuïc, but not even that tells the story. Some superb individual performances (and some stunning goals) have more than whetted the appetite for the second leg, but which superstar is going to make the difference back at San Siro?

Plus, with PSG dominating the Gunners at the Emirates, have Luis Enrique's side discovered the secret to winning big games? And after some outrageous behaviour from Real Madrid at the end of the Copa del Rey final, how did Carlo Ancelotti allow things to get to this stage?

Plus, how might Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa fare in the Premier League? Has Marcus Rashford’s Aston Villa renaissance caught the attention of any European giants? And has Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s PSG breakthrough sparked other clubs to look to more ‘unconventional’ leagues?

Just when you thought it was Inter’s to lose, Antonio Conte’s Napoli have crept up on his former club once again. But of course, this is Antonio Conte - so naturally, things aren’t all fine and rosy in his camp.

Nicky Bandini joins Dotun & Andy to explain why yet another classic ‘Conte-ism’ isn’t likely to derail Napoli’s Scudetto charge, even if it means winning a play-off in Milan.

Elsewhere, Niko Kovač has Dortmund clicking again, but how deep does the renovation need to go at the Westfalenstadion? Plus, Paulo Fonseca’s Lyon look close to falling apart after two crushing defeats against Manchester United and Saint-Étienne.

Dotun, Andy and Jonathan Johnson wrestle with the ever-changing Champions League landscape after an amazing set of quarter-final ties. Barcelona and PSG both look less convincing despite both scoring five aggregate goals apiece, while Inter’s reliance on big moments might prove the recipe for success. Confused? Same.

We also take stock of Real Madrid after their unglamorous exit and decide that this is the end for legendary coach Carlo Ancelotti. But is Xabi Alonso really the man to replace him? And does PSG boss Luis Enrique get the credit he deserves?

Sometimes a fresh coat of paint just won’t cut it. PSG and Barcelona have gone for a full renovation! PSG have ditched the superstar era and doubled down on youth, while Barça have traded Xavi’s caution for Hansi Flick’s ‘have a go’ approach - and it’s already paying off.

Dotun, Andy & David Cartlidge explain why they think they saw the eventual winners of this year's Champions League on Wednesday night. They also discuss what could be next for Real Madrid post-Ancelotti and why Xabi Alonso might have to give the estate agent a call to call off that house viewing in Düsseldorf.
