Summary
Jimbo, Duncan Alexander, Tom Williams and a down under Daniel Storey feast their eyes upon a mouthwatering football weekend.
Newcastle have never won a league game at the Etihad but this might be their best chance for some time as the red-hot Magpies take on a De Bruyne-less Manchester City. The Athletic's George Caulkin explains more.
Chelsea add two more expensive central midfielders to their ranks. Hear why they need Caicedo and Lavia to hit the ground running now. And it’s been a busy week for Man United on and off the pitch.
England take on Spain in the final of the Women’s World Cup final in Sydney on Sunday, with Sarina’s side seemingly untouchable as they grasp immortality.
Plus Everton’s signings system and the best ways to throw a strop
Produced by Charlie Jones.
