About this episode

PSG and Man City served up a cracking game in last night’s Champions League that has Kate, Jim and Andy in footballing soft power purgatory over which horse they're backing. 


We also get an update on the movers looking to shake Arsenal from the hands of the Kroenke's and, with football’s biggest names set to boycott social media this weekend, we look at how these calls for action can no longer fall on disinterested ears.
