Football Weekly Extra: Bizarre transfers and dull internationals

Land ahoy everyone! James Richardson is back for another stint at the helm of the good ship Football Weekly Extra, where he's joined by Sean Ingle, Paul Doyle and Paul MacInnes.

Topics up for discussion include the big last-minute transfers across Europe – including just how Milan were able to sign Robinho and Zlatan Ibrahimovic a week after relying on Genoa to help them bring in Kevin-Prince Boateng. Meanwhile Sid Lowe joins us from a metro station in Madrid to tell us how Rafael van der Vaart moving to Spurs has gone down in the Spanish capital.

We assess England's chances ahead of tomorrow's game against Bulgaria, look at Laurent Blanc's new-look France and give a nod to Non-League day.

Have a listen and post your feedback below. We're also on iTunes, Facebook and Twitter, and if you enjoy this type of thing, get your daily dose of football with our tea-time email, The Fiver.

One more thing: Football Weekly is coming to Liverpool for a live show in October. If you'd like to be part of the audience click here.
