Musa and Ryan begin with some fun grassroots football chat before turning their attention to Serie A (06.03), where just two points separate the top six. They start off by chatting about Inter and Napoli’s 1-1 draw at San Siro, thanks to goals from Scott McTominay and a Hakan Çalhanoğlu thunderbolt. They then head to the Premier League, where Liverpool’s win over Aston Villa took them five points clear (21:16), an impressive Brighton ensured Manchester City’s poor run continues (29:09), Ipswich and Wolves got their first league wins of the season, and it ended all square at Stamford Bridge. Finally, there’s a quick roundup of the Bundesliga (40:30) and La Liga (40:52).

There were two huge games between Spanish and German giants in the Champions League this week, so Musa and Ryan begin in Barcelona, where Hansi Flick performed a master class against his old side Bayern thanks to a Raphinha hat trick (02:19). The night before there was an equally enthralling game in Madrid, where Dortmund surrendered a two-goal lead to lose 5-2 to Real Madrid in the Bernabéu, where Vinícius Jr. took the plaudits and Nuri Sahin was left ruing a premature substitution (15:53). They then shout out some other results from match day three (27:19): Aston Villa is top of the Champions League, Liverpool is second only on goal difference, Lille completed a double over Madrid teams and the new format is maybe starting to heat up.

There's chat about some results (01:44), and then Ryan and Musa move on to the main topic, the men's Champions League—as well as the Europa and Conference Leagues—reforming for this season (06:46). They run through the new league formats, their initial thoughts about the changes and what it might mean going forward, with huge numbers of games and reports of player fatigue ahead of a season that will also see the new Club World Cup take place next summer. They ask (yet again) whether there is too much football, whether this is what fans actually want and whether there is another way to balance commercial and sporting interests—or whether even more football is the new normal.
