Parker pops up at Brugge, PSG lose and Serie A returns

After nearly 2 months apart, the Euro crew of Jimbo, Raphael Honigstein, James Horncastle, Julien Laurens and Alvaro Romeo are back and in full effect.

Ligue 1 returns with Lens closing the gap on PSG to 4 points by inflicting a first league defeat of the season on the Parisians. Will Lionel Messi help or hinder PSG when he returns?

La Liga is back with unfortunately another racism controversy and with referee Mateu Lahoz adding to his celebrity status.

Serie A restarts on Wednesday with Napoli on fire on the pitch and Juventus in trouble off it with their entire board resigning.

And Kristof Terreur tells us just how did Scott Parker end up being appointed as the new manager of Club Brugge.

Plus Bayern’s goalkeeper hunt, Will Still, and life for Lyon after Aulas.

Produced by Charlie Jones.
