Today, we're bringing you a special episode from Andy's European rabble over at On The Continent! He's joined by Dotun and French football expert Jonathan Johnson to explore Lyon's relegation (provisionally) to Ligue 2. How on earth did such an illustrious club get to breaking point, and who is to blame for their demise? Plus, as Atlético Madrid crash out of the Club World Cup, is time finally up for Diego Simeone? And Benfica continue to surprise us all across the pond. But with Premier League opposition up next, can they give another European giant a bloody nose?

The really terrible tournament that we're enjoying and hate but also love goes on. And Gordon Bennett, Auckland City got a point against Boca bloody Juniors! Marcus, Jim and Pete celebrate a huge result for trainee school teachers everywhere. We also examine Atletico Madrid's promise of a supporter's club in space and Pete suggests building a Ramble Club in the dirtiest part of the solar system. Plus, some lovely whispers about Aaron Ramsdale's next move and there's controversy in the Veterans Bundesliga... Please fill out Stak's listener survey!

A tournament straight from the mind of Gianni Infantino is (predictably) a bit of a mess – but is the Club World Cup a totally lost cause, or is there a version of it that might actually work? Pete tells Marcus and Luke why the whole thing reminds him of the bizarre new Sprite and tea combo. Plus, what are the player and club pairings we wish had happened? Come join us to find out!

The Brazilian sides cannot be stopped at this Club World Cup thing. Flamengo dispatched Chelsea (while Nicolas Jackson dispatched himself) and who knows what a completely commando Alex Barboza will do next? Marcus, Luke, Jim and Pete analyse the weekend's action and sadly wave goodbye to Ulsan Ultra 4k and those brave boys from Auckland City. If only Pete could get his hands on some kind of commemorative plate to remember them by. Or an oil painting to go up in his local school? Either will do. Plus, Southgate gets rejected by Poland (slugs) and Santi Cazorla continues to restore our faith in football! If you want to see David Moyes' Kremlin doppelgänger, here he is.
