Summary: With Matchday One action on deck for both the UEFA Champions League and Europa League, two fabulous commentators join the show to give us their early thoughts on how domestic action could shape up in the Bundesliga, Portuguese Liga, Eredivisie and Serie A where there has been lots of huge movement and ramifications on continental football. In segment one, Tim Caple joins the show to give us a deeper look at Pep Guardiola and Bayern Munich in year two, a year in which German football reached the pinnacle with a World Cup victory and how that may shape events for the Bavarian giants and whether Dortmund has indeed closed that massive gap between themselves and their chief rival. We also take a look inside Portugal as the three traditional giants all reinforced after massive sales of players in the off-season and finish with a Dutch league where PEC Zwolle launched itself into second place after beating PSV Eindhoven to gauge whether this is the point at which Ajax makes its usual surge under the leadership of Frank de Boer seeking yet another title. In segment two, Owen Neilson is back for another episode as we begin to examine the early stages of the Milanese revival under Pippo Inzaghi and Walter Mazzarri and if the first impressions have legs as Napoli continues to falter. Naturally, all eyes are on Champions League clubs Juventus and Roma who are sure to battle it out for the spoils in the wake of Antonio Conte moving on to the national team, so for now the questions center on a huge first checkpoint for Pippo Inzaghi as former Rossoneri manager Max Allegri will be out to avenge his difficult tenure at AC Milan, while bigger questions endure for the likes of Fiorentina, Lazio and Rafa Benitez who seems to be losing his way with the players inside Napoli.
