It’s Jimbo and the Euro crew of James Horncastle, Raphael Honigstein, Julien Laurens and Alvaro Romeo as we get fully underway across the continent. Harry Kane scores and assists on his Bundesliga bow but is it what he brings off the pitch that will most benefit Bayern this season?

PSG are still winless under Luis Enrique, even with Kylian Mbappe back on the scoresheet. But it could be worse, they could be Laurent Blanc’s Lyon. Bellingham and Yamal light up La Liga but it’s the conduct of Spanish FA president Luis Rubiales after Spain’s World Cup win that dominates the headlines. And we remember Carlo Mazzone, Guardiola’s former manager, who passed away this weekend. Produced by Charlie Jones.

Gary was recently joined by former Italy and Juventus analyst and assistant coach, Antonio Gagliardi. Antonio was on Roberto Mancini's Euro 2020 winning staff with Italy and discussed match preparation and scouting in tournament competitions, as well as his experiences in data and connecting coaching to analysis. In this interview he discusses how Italy communicated their game model with their players, overloading players tactically, adapting to opponent's but keeping principles consistent, and much more!! This was part of a Friday webinar with APFA. Please join us in Philly with APFA on May 17-18 for the MLS Opposition Analysis Course. Centered around an MLS game, the event will focus on opposition analysis, and attendees will hear from technical staff members from either team both before and after the match. Combined with the APFA course in Opposition Scouting & Analysis, participants will forgo the usual requirement of reporting on a professional team, and instead conduct interactive group work on the day of the game on either DC United or the Philadelphia Union.
