Mailbag: What are we looking forward to about the Champions League?

There really is nothing better big than a big slurp of Carabao on an autumnal Tuesday night. Cracking goals, plenty of chaos, and a delicious caffeinated beverage to go with it. That's a Luke Moore guarantee™. Marcus, Luke & Jim are here to chat through all of last night's action, including yet another defeat for Spurs as they edge closer to self-combustion. Plus, Enzo Le Fée declares himself the 'fun uncle' at Sunderland, a rabbit eats a carrot at London Road, and our old pal Juan Bernabe gets some stiff competition. Pun very much intended.

Well, that was pretty emphatic from Leeds United, wasn't it? In a battle of two rather eccentric German managers at Elland Road last night, it was big Daniel Farke who came out on top (in the football that is, not in the bedroom). Marcus tells Jim why Dominic Calvert-Lewin is primed for the Nations League. Plus, another set-back for Manchester United and two old pals link up back in Brazil.

It’s the Manchester Derby this weekend! And the first question is: are Man City favourites or heavy favourites? Today, Marcus, Luke and Pete ponder over that. Elsewhere, Luke asks whether Fulham are offering vouchers this season. Plus, we learn about the famous actor who used to live with Dion Dublin and the non-league club that has asked a man to - erm - stop impersonating their manager… Get your Football Ramble x Admiral kit here.
