On The Continent - A European Football Podcast

There's no 'good time' to play Bayern Munich, but in the form they've been in this season, any Bundesliga side would rightly head into that game expecting a thrashing. Borussia Dortmund gave them a right good go! Ultimately though, there simply is no stopping the juggernaut that Vincent Kompany has assembled.

Archie Rhind-Tutt was at Signal Iduna Park and joined Andy Brassell to dissect a thriller in North Rhine-Westphalia.

It's no exaggeration to say that this season has been calamitous for Italian football. Almost every Serie A team is out of the Champions League, the national team faces a World Cup playoff, and the stadia are decaying. So how did it all go wrong, and more importantly, how can things be put right?

David Cartlidge joins Andy and Dotun to answer that. Also, the guys discuss Real Madrid's historic associations with the far-right, Barcelona’s presidency, and the chances of Paris FC avoiding a relegation scrap.

It was a night of comebacks in the Champions League. Atalanta succeeded in knocking Borussia Dortmund off of their perch, and Juventus came oh so close to producing a classic in Turin. After the curtain fell though, just one of Italy's four teams made it through to the next round. Is Italian football in crisis?

David Cartlidge joins Dotun and Andy to debate that. Plus, Bodø/Glimt make history after dismantling Serie A's Champions elect. Just how did they do it? And things are heating up in the race for the top four in Germany. Will it be Stuttgart, Leipzig or Leverkusen who snatch the last Champions League position?

It was advantage PSG after a close first leg, so no wonder they were rattled after Monaco took the lead at the Parc des Princes. Despite a late Parisian comeback, Monaco’s promising start left us thinking: why did they take their foot off the gas? And, after a nervy start, can PSG retain their European crown?

'Idiots' was the term that Karl-Heinz Rummenigge used to describe Newcastle after they paid £69m for German striker Nick Woltemade. Six months into his Newcastle career and he has seven Premier League goals - a mixed return. With reports of unrest and speculation mounting over a possible exit, was Rummenigge right?

Dotun, Andy and Nicky Bandini are here to offer their assessment. Also, is the Serie A title race over? Could the European Super League return? And, why did 50,000 people attend FC Köln's under-19 match against Inter?
