In other, less go-getting football pods, you would assume that James Richardson and guests Barry Glendenning, Jacob Steiberg and Paul MacInnes would kick off proceedings with a non-handshake, non-debate.
But not on Football Weekly - oh no. We start with discussion of the Scottish Premier League, Olympiakos Piraeus' record season and then, yes, move on to Chelsea v Manchester United. A great save from De Gea - and perhaps goal of the season from Hernandez?
Raphael Honigstein and Sid Lowe preview this week's Champion's League fixtures - can Arsenal put three past Bayern or, more importantly, can Bayern go a game without scoring?
All that plus your thoughts on time travel, Michael Hann on a resurgent QPR and Liverpool's hat-trick. Your thoughts below the line are most welcome.
