After an unfortunate hiatus, Sam and Alex return to discuss Italian clubs' performance in Europe this week, look back at the last round of Calcettorneo and reveal their squads for this weekend from the five southernmost (peninsular) Serie A teams before finishing, in italiano, with their goalscorer picks for La Prova del Nove.

Totalcalcio is back as Sam and Alex break down their results from the last matchday in Calcettorneo and draft their Central European squads for this weekend's matches before finishing with their picks for La Prova del Nove.

Alex and Sam run through the top calcio stories, then take a look back at matchday 2 in Serie A through the lens of their Calcettorneo squads, plus reveal their picks for this weekend and finally close with La Prova del Nove, where Alex looks to make it a perfect 3 for 3.

Alex and Sam reflect on the opening weekend of games in Serie A, including Pirlo's first match as Juve manager, Victor Osimhen's impressive debut for Napoli and Ibrahimovic's brace against Bologna. The guys then reveal their first-ever sides for the new game Calcettorneo and finally wrap up the show with goalscoring predictions for this weekend on La Prova del Nove.

Along with Serie A, Sam and Alex are back with a brand new Italian soccer podcast called Totalcalcio. In this inaugural episode, they take a look at all 20 Serie A clubs, look ahead to week one and introduce two new games—Calcettorneo and La Prova del Nove—which will feature at the center of the podcast this season.

With the Serie A back in full swing along with the transfer window wide open, Sam and Alex take stock of the league as a whole and debate which teams will be part of the relegation battle, ask how much higher Milan and Fiorentina can rise/how much farther Napoli and Cagliari can slip, discuss Lazio's record-breaking win streak, Eriksen's move to Inter and ultimately if anyone can give Juve a real run for the Scudetto.

SerieAl and Serie A are both back as the holiday break is over and the second half of the season is underway. Sam and Alex discuss Zlatan's return to Milan and what it could mean for Piatek, Kulusevski's summer move to Juventus and other transfer speculation as they wrap up last weekend's action. In addition they look ahead to an enticing Serie A weekend and ask if there is one player more valuable to his club than Rodrigo De Paul.

SerieAl returns after an extended break for a team-by-team look back at the first half of the Serie A season and a glance ahead to 2020.

SerieAl returns after a two-week absence (for which it apologizes profusely) to break things down as we're now through essentially the first third of the Serie A season. Sam and Alex weigh in on coaching changes at Brescia and Udinese, mayhem at Napoli, magic at Cagliari and everything in between.

This week on SerieAl Sam and Alex discuss the prospect of Zlatan at Napoli and Thiago Motta's appointment and ambitious plans at Genoa, plus break down Pioli's and Ranieri's coaching debuts and the rest of last weekend in Serie A along with a (mostly) solid performance from the Italian teams in the Champions League, before finally looking ahead to the action this weekend, including Roma–Milan and Fiorentina–Lazio.
