James, who has been busy reviewing the European papers today, welcomes Barry Glendenning, Rob Smyth and Raphael Honigstein into pod central for top Champions League chat.
As Guus Hiddink out-foxes Rafael Benítez, the pod ask whether Liverpool have a hope in hell in the second leg, and with rumours of Carlo Ancelotti being installed as the next Chelsea manager, his pros and cons are discussed.
There's a comprehensive look at why Manchester United are lacking the fluidity of earlier in the season and mad admiration for Porto's performance at Old Trafford. The pod also look at the problems at Bayern Munich and wonder just how much longer Jürgen Klinsmann will have a job there.
Sid Lowe joins the action with gushing praise for Barcelona and news that the Spanish media are confident that Villarreal can defeat Arsenal in the return leg. He also has more pig tales for us.
Finally, there's a look at the relegation battle in the Premier League as Sunderland take on Man Utd, Stoke play Newcastle and Middlesbrough play Hull.
Following on from the success of your rudest select XI, we want your best XI taken from computer games. Barry sets the standard in the pod; leave yours for us below.
