Football Ramble
Mailbag: Will we miss this version of the Champions League?
•
Ahead of the Champions League’s impending changes, Marcus, Jim and Andy look back over some of their favourite moments from this era of the competition - from peak Jose Mourinho shithousing to some of the defining teams and managers synonymous with that magical anthem.
Plus, we wonder which English players could benefit from a move abroad and we wrestle with a truly baffling hypothetical dilemma standing between England and Euros glory.
