Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE. In this episode, Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Jill Scott, Roy Keane and Ian Wright are joined by Jordi Cruyff for an honest and insightful look at his life in football and beyond. We begin with Jordi’s early playing career, how he first fell in love with the game and the influence of his father, Johan. He talks us through his journey in the Barcelona academy and his move to Manchester United, where he struck up a close friendship with Eric Cantona during a memorable spell at Old Trafford. The team then reflect on Johan Cruyff’s remarkable legacy. As one of the most influential figures the sport has ever seen, what was he like away from the pitch, and what shaped his genius both as a player and as a manager? The conversation moves to Jordi’s role as Sporting Director at Barcelona during the post-Messi era. With financial restrictions and huge expectations on the club, he opens up on the challenges he faced and what he learned during one of the most difficult periods in Barça’s recent history. To finish, Jordi shares the powerful story of his daughter Danae’s battle with cancer. Danae joins us on the show to talk about her diagnosis and recovery, and we are all incredibly proud to see her doing so well and speaking so openly about her journey.

Jimbo’s got Seb Stafford-Bloor, Pol Ballús & James Horncastle along for the usual European fun and games with MD6 in the Champions League on the horizon. We begin with the increasingly loud rumblings of discontent in Madrid - as Xabi Alonso’s Real were stunned in a 2-0 defeat by Celta Vigo on Sunday night. How disastrous could it be for the Los Blancos boss if they were to be beaten by Pep’s City on Wednesday night? In Italy, it was an unhappy return to Naples for Luciano Spalletti as his Juve side were beaten 2-1 by Napoli. Elsewhere, Inter put four past a Como side which had been unbeaten in 11 Serie A games. Next up for Cristian Chivu’s side? Liverpool in an even deeper Mo Salah induced crisis. There may be no Jules but we’ve got a quick look at how things panned out in Ligue 1 over the weekend, with Lens still top, PSG putting five past Rennes and Marseille falling off the pace after their defeat at Lille. How will Luis Enrique’s men fare in their midweek trip to Bilbao to take on Athletic Club? And over in the Bundesliga, Leipzig’s Yan Diomande stole the show with a hat-trick in their 6-0 demolition of Frankfurt on Saturday. Plus - the extraordinary tale of the Vušković brothers at Hamburg.

Jimbo's got Charlie Eccleshare, Dan Kilpatrick and Duncan Alexander for company after a rather ludicrous midweek of action in the Premier League. We begin with events at Elland Road on Wednesday night, where Leeds condemned Chelsea to a 3-1 defeat to well and truly quell any talks of the Blues being serious title challengers. The Athletic's Beren Cross joins us to discuss a great night for Daniel Farke's side - and ponder their chances of dishing out a similar beating to Liverpool on Saturday evening. We've got of the fallout from across Tuesday and Wednesday night including fortress Anfield once again lacking fortification against the Black Cats, Man City's second-half collapse but eventual three points against Fulham - and the marvel of Mikel Merino as Arsenal got the better of Brentford. Amongst all that there's plenty of chatter ahead of the weekend's MD15 fixtures which include Villa v Arsenal, Tottenham v Brentford and Man City v Sunderland. Plus - party etiquette, reunions with exes and fights at the Christmas dinner table. Produced by Charlie Jones and Lucy Oliva.

Jimbo beams in Seb-Stafford Bloor from Hamburg and James Horncastle, Julien Laurens and Pol Ballús in the studio (!) for a latest dose of European and poultry-based chitchat ahead of MD5 in the Champions League. It’s a midweek full of fascinating ties with Arsenal hosting Bayern, Chelsea welcoming Barca - and PSG taking on Tottenham (again) as we enter the latter stages of the league phase. We’ve got all the usual tales from across the leagues, including Marseille purring in Ligue 1 ahead of the visit of Newcastle on Tuesday night - as they put five past Nice in unkind fashion on Friday night. In Germany, Bayern gave Freiburg a two-goal head start but still managed to win 6-2, with Michael Olise turning on the style as he prepares to face former Palace teammate Eberechi Eze on Wednesday evening… The Serie A title race shows no sign of letting up as it was Milan who took the bragging rights in the Derby della Madonnina - but it’s Roma who lead the way at the top of the table as Evan Ferguson finally opened his account! While in Spain, there’s signs of discontent at Real Madrid as they dropped yet more points, this time at newly promoted Elche - and that’s before the news that Vini Jr and Xavi Alonso aren’t too chummy… more on that later in the week! Produced by Lucy Oliva.
