MORNING PAPERS: Is the Champions League any good? | The magic of Darts | OFF THE BALL

Colm Boohig, Arthur O'Dea and Matthew Brennan were on-hand to run through all of this morning's sports news on Thursday's Off The Ball Breakfast.

After another night of box-office Champions League action, the lads are at odds over whether or not this new format is really working. While Real Madrid vs Manchester City is more compelling than some of the old group stage games, are the lower stakes diluting the quality of these massive games?

Beyond that, the World Darts Championship kicks off tonight and Matthew led the discussion as the lads tried to figure out just why it has become so popular!
