I'm Gab, he's Jules, a horrible, speedy weather over West London, but it doesn't matter because

0:11.2

the Champions League is about, and we're halfway through Jules and believe that, there's

0:18.0

a lot to talk about, we'll be talking about belly, I'm scoring again, what a shock,

0:22.2

Newcastle losing at home, when you're in Berlin, nine defeats in a row, how about that?

0:28.5

Let's start at the park to Peronc again, because I think most people agree this is going to be

0:33.8

the tightest Champions League group. I was curious to see how Milan would approach this game.

0:39.9

Yeah. They decided to approach it by playing this very high line, and Paris as your man said,
