Description

Two losses at the Bernabéu in four days and the Madrid media storm is kicking up around Xabi Alonso. But, is he to blame for Real Madrid’s issues? Today, Dotun, Andy and Nicky Bandini try to get to the bottom of what’s really going wrong for Los Blancos.


Elsewhere, Marseille have hit their straps in the Champions League. Andy outlines why the De Zerbi project has been a success so far. Plus, Nicky tries to explain Fiorentina’s woes, but can the club defy the odds and avoid relegation?
