Summary
It was a mixed night for English sides in the Champions League as Liverpool and Spurs both got vital wins, whilst Chelsea lost away to Atalanta.
Kelly Cates has all the reaction and is joined by BBC Senior Football Reporter Ian Dennis, former Liverpool defender Stephen Warnock and ex-Spurs winger Andros Townsend.
They start at San Siro where Liverpool ended a tumultuous few days in the wake of Mo Salah's interview with a statement win over Inter Milan.
Another bad result for Chelsea meant they haven't won a game since their Champions League victory over Barcelona last month. Meanwhile, Spurs stayed in the race for automatic qualification for the last 16 with a comfortable win over Slavia Prague.
We also hear from Liverpool manager Arne Slot and Spurs boss Thomas Frank as well as looking ahead to Manchester City's trip to the Bernabeu, where Xabi Alonso's time as manager seems to be coming to an end.
