Description

John Bennett is joined by Guillem Balague, James Horncastle and Rafa Honigstein. How good a fit is Ruben Amorim to Manchester United, and how good are Barcelona?

The Sporting Lisbon boss looks set to complete his move to Manchester, but will he be able to emulate his success in Portugal in the Premier League?

Barcelona, fresh off a week that saw them score 13 goals and only concede two – the last four scored against bitter rivals Real Madrid in El Clasico – are six points clear at the top of La Liga. How has Hansi Flick done it, and why are Madrid faltering?

The panel also discuss the Scottish contingent in Naples aiding Antonio Conte’s side in their quest for only a second Scudetto since 1990.
