With the continuing issues at Sheffield Wednesday brought on by owner Dejphon Chansiri, we kick off with a worrying chat about football club ownership and to what extent we can fix such a severe structural problem in English football. Marcus and Luke also get David to reassure all the Sunderland fans listening by confirming that he thinks they’ll stay in the Premier League next season and a listener offers Marcus the chance to swap Italy’s results from the last ten years with England’s.

Vindication – at last – for Marcus Speller and the Nations League! Spain and France had a nine-goal punch-up last night and what can only be described as an incredibly post-season number of shots (40). Marcus, Jim, Andy and Vish discuss the game and turn their eyes to England's meeting with Andorra tomorrow, who – incidentally – are perhaps the only team in world football who might miss out on qualifying for next summer's 6-week long World Cup (more on that). We also hear about Gianni Infantino using himself as a number nine and narrow down the exact definition of Russell Martin's 'gothball'. Please fill out Stak's listener survey!

It was another defeat on home soil for Germany and their moustachioed detective Julian Nagelsmann and this time in the biggest competition of all...

It was all going so well for Manuel Pellegrini and his band of merry former Premier League men. Isco was stroking the ball around midfield. Chelsea's youngsters were charging around to no avail. And Alan Pardew was shaking his fist at his telly. But then Cole Palmer decided that was enough. Pete and Andy look back on Chelsea's Europa Conference League triumph, which featured a Palmer masterclass, the heaviest touch you will ever see, and an extraordinary haircut which Pete will be copying for the next Ramble Live tour.
