About this episode

Dotun and Andy are joined by David Cartlidge for a look at those left in Real Madrid's wake after their impressive season. Barcelona look to be improving under Xavi, while Sevilla and Atlético struggle under the weight of their respective coaches.


We also give you the lowdown on the youngsters looking to fill Erling Haaland's boots at Dortmund and discover that one Coppa Italia trophy does not a summer make for Inter!
