James Richardson is joined in the studio this week by Zonal Marking's Michael Cox, Philippe Auclair and Barry Glendenning.
Up for discussion: Manchester City leapfrog Manchester United at the top of the Premier League after comfortably beating Aston Villa. Meanwhile Newcastle continue their unbeaten run and Robin van Persie gets Arsenal out of jail with a late winner at the Emirates.
In Spain Levante continue their remarkable run of results. Sid Lowe says it can no longer count as pure luck. But in Serie A, five bore-draws are enlivened only by two red cards, and Inter's early season woes continue.
We look ahead to this week's Champions League matches and track Joe Cole's progress at Lille.
Plus: we have a fantastic prize to give away on Thursday's show. A trip for two to watch Real Madrid at the Bernabéu plus a couple of copies of PES 2012. Don't miss it.
