| The weekend is nearly here and with it brings back even more European football including the English Premier League and la Liga in Spain. Our guest for the day therefore is Spanish football editor for Goal.com, based in Spain, Ben Hayward. Ben joins the show to look at the opening weekend in la Liga, and more specifically the two powerhouses of Real Madrid and FC Barcelona. Has the power shifted from Barcelona back to the capitol? Ancelotti brings a lot of experience dealing with egos and star players, so Ben explains what sort of expectations Jose Mourninho's replacement will have to face. Barcelona made a big purchase in Neymar, but they haven't improved their leaky defense and in turn, it makes them a big target for clubs likes Atletico Madrid, Real Betis and more. Rafa comes on the program to look back at the Bosnia-Herzegovina match and tries to explain how Jozy managed to get a hat-trick in the second 45 minutes of play. Ollie and Rafa also kick about some other international scorelines from a rather entertaining days worth of international friendlies. |
