Patrick and Ted break down a massive weekend across Europe. Real Madrid hammer Barcelona in El Clásico as Mbappé and Bellingham rip through Barca’s press while Xabi Alonso shows why Madrid look like a Champions League favorite again. Then it’s Manchester United beating Brighton, City falling apart at Villa, and the big Premier League question: is anyone besides Arsenal actually good? They dig into the league’s tactical weirdness, from long throws to set pieces and mid-table chaos, before wrapping with transfer talk on Upamecano, Liverpool’s needs, and Real Madrid’s ridiculous depth. Enjoy!
