It’s Jimbo, Raphael Honigstein, James Horncastle, Alvaro Romeo and Julien Laurens in effect ahead of matchday 3 of the Champions League.
Simone Inzaghi’s Inter can’t stop losing. They host a Barcelona side who have just gone top of La Liga.
It was another disappointing weekend for Sevilla and Dortmund who also go head to head this week. And then it’s Der Klassiker for Dortmund.

Plus Higuain’s retirement, Smalling for England and the quality of bread in France.
