Max Rushden is joined by Barry Glendenning, Lars Sivertsen and Jonathan Liew as Liverpool lose for the first time in the Champions League this season and Manchester City and Arsenal escape with narrow wins.

On the podcast today: defeat for Liverpool in Turkey with Dirk Kuyt’s Fenerbache winning by the odd goal in five. Manchester City are tested by RB Leipzig but the game was ultimately settled by a beautiful sweeping move finished off by Erling Haaland.

Elsewhere, Arsenal win 2-1 in Prague, a third away game in seven days and they looked tired. Real Madrid find a way (don’t they always) in Athens and Como score nine at Lens.

Plus, previewing the Premier League weekend, with as many as five managers worried about their jobs post international break, and your questions answered.

Max Rushden is joined by Barry Glendenning, John Brewin and Lucy Ward as Harry Kane equals the all-time England appearance record in a 3-0 win over Czechia.

On the podcast today: Harry Kane becomes the joint-record men’s appearance holder for England, then adds two goals in an easy win over Czechia. The panel face a familiar dilemma – is it possible to have a new conversation about how good he is?

Elsewhere, has it been a good camp for England? Jude Bellingham, Lewis Hall and Trent Alexander-Arnold have all impressed. Sébastien Pocognoli’s Scotland have struggled, and ending their run of games with a 2-1 home defeat to Slovenia.

Plus: Cristiano Ronaldo’s incredible statement explaining his absence from the Portugal squad, Lionel Messi’s glorious send-off and your questions answered.

On the podcast today; there was some concern ahead of this extended international break about how to fill the six podcasts we’re obliged to put out and then the Manchester City verdict arrived on Friday afternoon. Manchester City maintain their innocence, who knows how long an appeal will take but for now the panel debate what punishment fits this crime and will it be quicker to ask who isn’t going to sue them now for lost trophies, lost earnings and lost moments?

Elsewhere, England give Spain a good game in the Nations League, but again don’t quite get over the line against top opposition - not a game of huge consequence, but how do this side get over that?

Plus, to the fiasco in Hungary where the Republic of Ireland beat Israel on Sunday and your questions answered.
