Football Weekly: 2009-10 season preview

Fasten your seatbelts and set phasers to stun because Football Weekly is back!

After dragging in the pod crew in at an ungodly hour, James Richardson is joined by Barry Glendenning, Sean Ingle and Kevin McCarra to ask the big questions. Can Manchester City break into the Big Four after their extravagant summer spending? Who will win the Premier League? And will AC Jimbo's young lad have to go without shoes now Setanta has gone bust?

Away from the Premier League, we round up the goings-on in Italy; Raphael Honigstein explains why he expects Germany's Bundesliga to be just as exciting this time round; and Sid Lowe analyses the madness of Real Madrid's summer spending spree in Spain.

And there's more! John Ashdown gives his tips for the lower leagues and speculates on how Sven-Goran Eriksson will do at Notts County, while there's even time to discuss matters north of the border too.

Have a listen, leave your comments on the blog below - and make sure you don't miss a show by subscribing to us on iTunes. There's Facebook and, like Darren Bent, Twitter action too.

We're back on Monday 17 August...
