Musa and Ryan discuss Gary Lineker’s temporary suspension from presenting BBC’s 'Match of the Day,' which caused multiple pundits, commentators and staff to withdraw from the weekend’s coverage (03:39). They also discuss the statements released by the BBC’s director general, Tim Davie, and Lineker ahead of his return to the show this week. They then discuss some football, including a huge win for Bournemouth over Liverpool (22:34), Schalke and Dortmund’s derby draw (30:51) and Barcelona’s win against Athletic Club at the end of a week when Barcelona was handed corruption charges (38:14).
