Summary
The European edition returns with your preferred pod posse of Jimbo, James Horncastle, Julien Laurens, Raphael Honigstein and Alvaro Romeo.

New gaffers galore in Germany. Can Marco Rose’s Dortmund topple Julian Nagelsmann’s Bayern? Or what about Jesse Marsch’s Leipzig, the best squad in the Bundesliga?
