The Totally Football Show with James Richardson

Another enthralling night of Champions League action and a big Premier League weekend to come.

Jimbo welcomes Duncan Alexander, Tom Williams and Benji Lanyado into the studio break it all down.

The nadir of Michael Carrick’s reign at Manchester United comes in Como. A chastening 4-1 defeat with skipper Bruno Fernandes seeming to question the coach’s tactics. Is there any way back for Carrick at Old Trafford?

Two of the favourites battle it out as Bayern and Arsenal contest a 2-2 draw. On a night where Ballon d’Or favourite Harry Kane showed he could do absolutely everything.

Villa make it 3 wins out of 3 in the Champions League. Next up for them, leaders Man City at Villa Park this Saturday, a fixture that the hosts usually win…

Tottenham are forced to confront their terrible record at Stamford Bridge and it’s the same story for Everton at Arsenal.

Plus what happened to home advantage and what will become of the nepo babies at Premier League clubs?

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. Is it time to take Gennaro Gattuso’s side seriously and what does that 3-0 defeat of Juventus mean for Luciano Spalletti?

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

Champions Arsenal were made to wait at the City Ground but Noni Madueke’s late strike took the 3 points home for the Gunners as Forest continue to struggle in front of goal.

Man United were ahead at Elland Road but get pegged back. It’s now just 2 wins from 10 matches in all competitions for Michael Carrick’s side.

Brighton make it six wins in a row as they blow Crystal Palace away. Diego Gomez scores from the halfway line. Do the Seagulls have what it takes to go all the way?!

Man City make it 7 wins out of 7 under Enzo Maresca as we continue to ponder what that’s worth.

There are big wins for Chelsea, Liverpool and Villa on the road.

Plus Fulham and Bournemouth get their first league wins under their new managers.

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. How will the off-field storm surrounding the club affect Michael Carrick and his players?

Lisandro Martinez didn't hold back in his post match interview after Man Utd's 2-0 loss to Atletico Madrid, attacking the club's board and director of football.

Jimbo is joined by Julien Laurens, Liam Twomey & Art De Roche to break down Tuesday night's Champions League action.

Arsenal left it late for the second time in a number of days, scoring three in six second half minutes to beat Lille 3-0. Viking provided the shock of the night, drawing 3-3 against Bayern, whilst Barca's attack was breathtaking in their 4-1 win over Galatasary.

Plus a bad night for the Italian sides, the rest of Tuesday night's action and a look back at Coventry's win over Newcastle on Monday.

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?

Plus, Bayern Munich concede the fastest goal in Bundesliga history in a 2-2 draw with Augsburg, as Freiburg go top of the table.

The most anticipated Premier League game for many years is won by Enzo Maresca’s men in controversial circumstances. Jimbo, Tom Williams, Adrian Clarke and Colin Millar try to make sense of it all.

City make it six wins out of six against 10-man Liverpool at Anfield, the first loss for Andoni Iraola. What to make of this supreme start to the season when sanctions still hang in the air?

Across Manchester, United fail to beat 10-man Spurs, who move off the bottom of the table. Michael Carrick overseeing United’s worst start to a season in 40 years.

Champions Arsenal have to come from behind to beat Leeds while Chelsea continue to start incredibly fast with a 5-1 thrashing of Bournemouth.

Elsewhere, it’s an unhappy return to Selhurst Park for Oliver Glasner, Brighton stay 3rd and Fulham stay winless after a late show from the Tractor Boys at Portman Road.

Will the English top flight ever be the same again? Jimbo, Julien Laurens, Duncan Alexander and Si Hughes have lots to ponder.

After being ruled to have violated the Premier League’s financial rules for almost a decade, Man City travel to Liverpool on Sunday with the eyes of the world on them. Can Maresca’s men make it six wins out of six against a Liverpool side yet to lose under Iraola?

Spurs are winless and bottom of the table. But could their luck turn against similarly under pressure Man United at Old Trafford?

Champions Arsenal have had three weeks to stew over the 3-0 thrashing by Brighton, as they welcome unbeaten Leeds to the Emirates.

Elsewhere, Glasner goes back to Selhurst Park. And could the Seagulls be champions?

Plus it’s so long Lionel Messi and an almighty Ronaldo ramble as we wrap up the international break.

Jimbo is joined by Ian Irving, Michael Cox and Duncan Alexander to celebrate David Beckham, 25 years on from his iconic free kick against Greece.

From East London to global superstardom, he lit up English football with his magical right foot and the red carpets with his good looks.

Not the fastest or the biggest as a kid, he famously practiced relentlessly and was taken under the wing of Alex Ferguson who turned him into one of the Premier League greats, winning 6 Premier League titles and shining as Man Utd won the treble in 99.

A talismanic England captain, he wore his heart on his sleeve and perenially found himself on the front and back pages in a tabloid time.

But having become one of the world's most famous people, do we forget just how good he was?
