About this episode

Juventus have got their points back - for now - but are they good enough on the pitch to make it count? Nicky’s not convinced but she does suggest Inter's Simone Inzaghi COULD be the next Carlo Ancelotti.


Today Dotun, Andy and Nicky look to Italy and the ongoing race for Europe, they hear from a listener that took Andy’s advice and saw Jose Mourinho’s Roma play in the flesh. We also ask: Can Dortmund beat Bayern in what is essentially now a 5 game season and why do things feel slightly underwhelming at Barcelona despite their huge lead at the top of La Liga?
