Are we in 2014? Jose Mourinho masterminded a peak performance from his Real Madrid side as they left the Camp Nou with all three points, having started the day as huge underdogs.Many had predicted Barcelona and Lamine Yamal to steamroll Los Blancos in El Clasico but they didn’t show the best of themselves; whereas Madrid were excellent in their individual battles.

And has he exposed Barcelona’s well-known weakness?In the Premier League, Michael Carrick is under almost untenable pressure after Manchester United succumbed to a 3-0 home defeat against Bournemouth.

Two huge games in La Liga. 1st v 4th and 3rd v 5th as Barcelona travelled to Betis and Real Madrid hosted Sevilla. And both of the league’s big boys delivered in what felt like a one-day goal of the season contest. Barcelona were their usual free-flowing selves with Lamine Yamal - who is in flow state - scored a superb curling effort - although, Giovanni Lo Celso scored one of the great disallowed goals of all time shortly after. But the visitors showed their quality in the end despite Betis’ battling. At the Bernabeu, Kylian Mbappe scored a stylish double - Luca’s favourite goal in a long time - Yann Diomande laced an effort in and Arda Guler curled a beautiful effort over Robbie Ure in a performance that felt like it ‘clicked’ late on. Are they arriving into the league’s biggest game in the perfect way? Luca Dallolio, Lyes Bouzidi and Alessandro talk through La Liga’s action as well as looking ahead to El Clasico - but more immediately the Champions League is back with two mouth-watering ties between the four pre-season favourites: PSG v Barcelona and Bayern Munich v Arsenal.

Luca Dallolio, Lyes Bouzidi and Alessandro Eremiti are back to break down the weekend’s Premier League and Serie A action - plus a major tangent on one very important question: who is the coolest club in the world?BRIGHTON ARE FLYING! The Premier League’s top scorers put Crystal Palace to the sword in a sumptuous display, capped off by Diego Gomez’s early contender for goal of the season. But just how far can Brighton go?Chelsea got the job done against previously unbeaten Everton, with Moises Caicedo at the heart of an important 2-0 win. Andoni Iraola’s Liverpool are building momentum despite defeat to Manchester City, with Victor Munoz producing an electric breakaway goal. Rio Ngumoha also made a huge impact off the bench - so how does his manager find room for him in the starting XI?In Serie A, Inter Milan once again showed their character with a comeback victory over Bologna. Gennaro Gattuso and Lazio are flying, too, following a dominant win over Juventus - leaving Luca asking the question on every Bianconeri fan’s mind: “when will it end?”Alessandro, meanwhile, has fewer existential concerns. Roma proved they can cope without the suspended Donyell Malen, beating Genoa to keep pace with Inter and their city rivals. And Ruben Amorim’s AC Milan are quietly building something promising, picking up another high-scoring win against Atalanta. Oh, and Napoli lost to Venezia who picked up their first points of the season.What do you think? How far can Brighton go this season? What should Liverpool do with Rio Ngumoha?

La Liga returns with one of the craziest moments of the season - and of course it was Vinicius Jr who was involved. He went through all the emotions in just a couple of minutes as his goal for Madrid against Villareal was disallowed for a hair pull, for which he was sent off. Luca Dalloliio, Lyes Bouzidi and Alessandro Eremiti look at Real Madrid’s win, Vinicius Jr’s tough period and how Barcelona continue to set the pace despite putting out a rotated team. The team also look ahead to the Champions League as Alessandro gets his crystal ball out. Who will be the surprise package? Who will be the biggest flop? Who’ll score the most?

The Premier League returns with a bang - and there’s been a tangible vibe shift. We are in a post-Man-City-charges era. But nobody told the players. Rayan Cherki, Erling Haaland and Jeremy Doku changed the game - with Elliot Anderson putting in another stellar display. Luca Dallolio, Lyes Bouzidi and Alessandro Eremiti dissect a strange atmosphere at Anfield, how this limbo period dents the credibility of the Premier League and how City’s quality was, ultimately, simply too much. Lyes’ United struggled again in their draw with Spurs, with pressure mounting on Michael Carrick, what are the core issues at United? Or is it the same thing over and over again? In Serie A, we are talking about a forgone conclusion with Internazionale continuing their dominance - despite the resurgence of both of Rome’s clubs, Lazio and Roma?

Lionel Messi’s final game for Argentina. The end of an era, the final chapter of a story that changed football forever.His international journey has been full of the most extreme highs, and the lowest of lows. But the little boy from Rosario has cemented his place among the greatest to ever play the game as well as in the hearts of Argentinians who, at one point, were his biggest critics.

Barcelona - the great entertainers - continued their thrilling early-season form with a 3-1 win away against Sevilla, despite needing to be sparked into life again as the hosts went in front. Raphinha bagged a beautiful hat-trick, featuring another undefendable chop and finish - his eighth, ninth and tenth goals of the La Liga season. Lamine Yamal assisted his Brazilian team-mate twice with an inch-perfect cross and then a slotted through ball as Barcelona went five points clear of second, and six points clear of Real Madrid. Jose Mourinho’s side lost for the second time this season in the Madrid derby, in a game filled with controversy and drama. What do you expect when the dugouts are filled by Jose and Diego Simeone? But, once again, when Los Blancos were faced with stiffer opposition - like against Betis - they came up short? Why is this happening when they have the talent they do? What can Mourinho do to solve it? Luca Dallolio, Lyes Bouzidi and Alessandro Eremiti are on hand to get their teeth stuck into La Liga, the Bundesliga and the MLS as we go around the world.

This week, we’re talking about the day-in-day-outers, the grinders - the other guys. Brighton and Brentford upset Arsenal and Chelsea respectively, with Manchester City taking advantage in a thrilling 5-3 win over Sunderland. But for every Brighton or Brentford, there’s a crisis club unable to replicate their success - Spurs and Manchester United both added to torrid weeks with lackluster performances. Luca Dallolio, Lyes Bouzidi and Alessandro Erimiti are back to dissect the weekend’s action and the wider themes at play in English football’s top tier as well flying over to Serie A. Roma and Inter Milan couldn’t be separated in a game of two halves. Juventus are back on track just as the international break rolls around.

Welcome to the big leagues. Every four years, at this exact stage of the World Cup, legends are made. Players announce themselves onto the world stage, or push themselves into a whole new bracket of superstardom. Your quarter finals are: France v Morocco. Can the world&#39;s best attack featuring - Kylian Mbappe, Ousmane Dembele and Michael Olise - conquer a Moroccan side that have been steadily growing for the last six years. Can Achraf Hakimi&#39;s organised, exciting side cause the upset to end all upsets? Lamine Yamal is still waiting for his World Cup moment - is he waiting until it really matters to turn on the style? Spain have made the tournament look relatively easy so far - but Belgium have grown into it, using the controversy in their match-up with the USMNT as fuel to overpower the host nation. In arguably the most exciting quarter-final fixture, Norway take on England - two of the world&#39;s best strikers - in Erling Haaland and Harry Kane - will be aiming to outshoot each other in a fixture littered with intrigue and excitement. Will Jude Bellingham be the answer again though? We have been watching. We will be watching.

What a few days of World Cup action we&#39;ve had. Lionel Messi continues to baffle defences and gobsmacked crowds with his awe-inspiring talent - his brace against Austria was vintage Lio - his fourth and fifth goals of the tournament already! Hot on his heels in the race for the &#39;26 golden boot (as well as the all-time record) is Kylian Mbappe who bagged a brace in a scary-looking French win over Iraq. And if that wasn&#39;t enough, Erling Haaland matched him stride for stride scoring his third and fourth for Norway in their 3-2 victory over Senegal. But we still have more questions going into the final round of group games? Can one of the smallest nations ever make it through to the knockouts - Cabo Verde have the best chance as they face Saudi Arabia in their final game? Can Portugal finally kick on?
