Summary

Jimbo's joined by Jack Lang, Tom Williams and Liam Tharme at Totally HQ for a look back on all of Wednesday's Champions League festivities - and a look ahead to an intriguing weekend of Premier League action before heading into the October international break.

There was PSG getting the better of Barcelona, Eric Dier coming up clutch for Monaco against Man City late on - and wins for Arsenal and Newcastle in MD2 of the league phase.

Then we turn our attention to domestic affairs, pondering whether Nuno's West Ham can make it three consecutive wins for the Hammers at Arsenal, whether it's Chelsea or Liverpool who'll arrest their mini-slumps at Stamford Bridge on Saturday evening - and whether Brentford can do a job on Pep's side yet again at the Gtech. Plus - could it be 50 and out for Amorim as Manchester United host high-flying Sunderland at Old Trafford?

All that plus the advent of the yellow and red card, a French spin on the Premier League - and Anthony Gordon's tribute to Diana, Princess of Wales.

Produced by Charlie Jones and Lucy Oliva.
