Summary

Grant and Luis Miguel marvel at Lionel Messi’s four-goal performance as Barcelona goes back atop La Liga ahead of Real Madrid (a 1-0 loser at Levante). They also discuss the VAR failure in Chelsea’s 2-1 win vs Spurs; José Mourinho’s silly bellyaching about needing players; the leaders holding serve in Germany and Italy; a mouthwatering slate of this week’s UEFA Champions League games led by Manchester City-Real Madrid; the start of MLS’s 25th season this week; MLS teams’ encouraging situation in CONCACAF Champions League; Grant’s wild story on Jermaine Jones; Luis Miguel’s interview with Orlando’s Pedro Gallese; and their issues with U.S. Soccer lawyers asking USWNT players like Carli Lloyd how they’d do in games against men.
