Football Weekly: Red-hot Redknapp, Zlatan's move and German shocks

James Richardson is joined in the pod by John Ashdown, James Dart and Raphael Honigstein to discuss:

• The weekend's action in the Premier League, including shocks for Spurs, Harry Redknapp's red-hot fuse and Carlos Tevez, Theo Walcott's net-buster and Aston Villa's cracker against Everton.

• Transfer deadline day: are Liverpool lowering the bar with their targets? Who else could be on the move?

Sid Lowe joins on the phone to discuss the opening weekend in La Liga, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and rubbish flights from Mallorca to Madrid.

• The Bundesliga: Raphael discusses defeats for Bayern and Bayer, as well as a surprise setback for Steve McClaren's Wolfsburg.

• Serie A, as Milan settle into life with Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Juve stumble to a first opening-day defeat since 1982.

• The Football League, with QPR and Cardiff heading the way, while Southampton cause heads to turn by sacking Alan Pardew.
