Summary

We're going inside the number nine on this week's episode of On The Continent, as Karim Benzema and Robert Lewandowski's hat-tricks reminded everyone what they're still about.


Dotun, Andy and David Cartlidge also ask if PSG will ever wake up from their Champions League nightmare. We also get a sprinkling of João over in Madrid and a couple of tasty Games of the Week!

Even if Diego Simeone is doing his best to stick his nose and if you know what I mean.

Let's start with who's got the keys to Ben Zimmer. Here's a question from Joshua.

1:04.5

He sent us a question through social media. I just want Andy to talk about Ben Zimmer for 10 minutes.
