Put yourselves in the shoes of the best team in Europe last season. What would you do if you had Europe's best goalkeeper on the books? Throw him out with the bathwater of course! Well that's just what Luis Enrique and Paris Saint-Germain have done with Gianluigi Donnarumma, but he's not leaving that bath without making a splash!

Dotun, Andy & Lars Sivertsen give their thoughts on the decision. Plus, pack your suitcase everybody. We're heading to Miami! The Spanish FA have approved the decision to play Villarreal vs Barcelona across the pond, but what does it mean for the direction of travel in modern football?

And the Champions League is back! Well, the qualifying rounds... but there's plenty of excitement to dissect! Grab all the food you need. We're going on a European tour.
