Bayern no longer perfect, Conte being Conte - and ten Hag back to Ajax?!

Jimbo’s got Pol Ballús, James Horncastle, Julien Laurens and Seb Stafford-Bloor all along for the rollercoaster ride through the weekend’s action across the continent. We kick things off in France, where PSG have João Neves to thank for their two-point lead at the top of the Ligue 1 table after his 95th minute winner against Lyon. But chasers Lens and Marseille had wins of their own to keep the pressure on Luis Enrique’s side. In the Bundesliga - Bayern didn’t win a game! But neither did Leipzig or Dortmund, meaning Vincent Kompany’s men have actually extended their lead at the top of the table to six points despite the 2-2 draw at Union Berlin. In Spain, Real Madrid were lucky to come away from Rayo Vallecano with a point - which Barcelona took full advantage of in their 4-2 win at Celta Vigo, featuring a hat-trick from 37-year-old Robert Lewandowski. A special guest joins us from Vigo… nothing to do with Nando’s…. And in Serie A, are we seeing a repeat of Napoli’s last title defence?! Antonio Conte made some… interesting comments after his side were beaten 2-0 by Bologna to fall behind Inter and Roma at the top of the table. Plus - what’s going on at Ajax?! Dutch football expert Michiel Jongsma joins us to explain some of the fun and games in the Eredivisie - and whether a certain ten Hag might be making a return… Produced by Lucy Oliva.

European Mulch

The Brazilian sides cannot be stopped at this Club World Cup thing. Flamengo dispatched Chelsea (while Nicolas Jackson dispatched himself) and who knows what a completely commando Alex Barboza will do next? Marcus, Luke, Jim and Pete analyse the weekend's action and sadly wave goodbye to Ulsan Ultra 4k and those brave boys from Auckland City. If only Pete could get his hands on some kind of commemorative plate to remember them by. Or an oil painting to go up in his local school? Either will do. Plus, Southgate gets rejected by Poland (slugs) and Santi Cazorla continues to restore our faith in football! If you want to see David Moyes' Kremlin doppelgänger, here he is.

Barca stun Real in chaotic Supercopa, while Kvaratskhelia nears PSG move

Jimbo’s joined by a full complement of European experts as Pol Ballús, James Horncastle, Julien Laurens and the returning Seb Stafford-Bloor are on hand to look back on a busy weekend of action. We begin in Saudi Arabia, where Barcelona stunned Real Madrid to win the Supercopa de España in emphatic fashion. Back on home soil, Atleti went top of La Liga after a club record 14th win in a row in all competitions courtesy of their 1-0 victory over Osasuna. The Bundesliga is back after die Winterpause - and it returned in style on Friday night as Leverkusen made it nine wins in a row and inflicted Dortmund’s first home defeat of the season as they ran out 3-2 winners. Plus, which striker who scored a remarkable goal this weekend gets a comparison to Mark Viduka?! Over in Serie A, Napoli sit top of the pile after their 2-0 win over Verona - but it looks like Kvaradona could be on his way out... Meanwhile, Atalanta stuttered to their second consecutive draw to fall behind Inter in the table. Draw specialists Juve made it a remarkable 12 stalemates from their 19 league fixtures after it finished 1-1 in the Turin derby. And in Ligue 1, PSG stay unbeaten and seven points clear at the top of the table after their 2-1 win over Saint-Étienne, while Marseille try to keep up the pressure with their 2-1 victory at Rennes. Plus, Didier Deschamps will be leaving his role as France manager after the 2026 World Cup - but was it wise to announce the news now? Produced by Lucy Oliva.

Man City humbled by Spurs | Ruben Amorim exclusive interview | Arsenal back to winning ways as Saka shines

Vicky Gomersall is joined by the The Mirror's Darren Lewis and Sky Sports Football Chief Reporter Kaveh Solhekol to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action. We start by looking at Manchester City’s decline, with a 4-0 loss at home to Tottenham on Saturday Night Football. Kaveh believes City can still turn it around. Next to Gary Neville’s exclusive interview with Ruben Amorim, who talks expectations, differences moving to the Premier League, and his non-negotiables. Elsewhere, Arsenal get their title challenge back on track beating Nottingham Forest 3-0 at home. Kaveh praises their physicality and defensive strength but have they let Liverpool gain too much of an advantage? Also, Natalie Gedra sits down with Bruno Fernandes, who talks of expectations on Manchester United and Ruben Amorim’s intensity in training. And Lynsey Hooper chats to Rodri, who sleeps with the Ballon d’Or, but doesn’t think the win has sunk in yet. Finally, Kaveh thinks Enzo Maresca has got Chelsea moving in the right direction after another win against his old club Leicester. Sunday Supplement is a Sky Sports podcast.
