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? Milan impress on Serie A’s opening weekend thanks to Captain America but Juventus are the team that look like they really mean business. 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.

Dave Jones is joined by Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher and Karen Carney as they watched Arsenal produce a resolute performance to see out their narrow 1-0 win away at Crystal Palace after Takehiro Tomiyasu was sent off for two soft yellow cards. Neville feels Tomiyasu’s dismissal will have a real impact on players, after the Arsenal full-back’s first caution was for time wasting. Before the game kicked off, Carragher and Neville debated whether Arsenal’s record signing Declan Rice is in the same category as either Roy Keane or Patrick Vieira. Neville also talks about the evolution of the full-back role and the risk and rewards of Tottenham’s tactics against Manchester United on Saturday. The trio also discuss whether there should be a concern around Casemiro's recent form for United after a stuttering start to the season for the midfielder. Speaking after the game, Carney, Neville and Carragher react to the progression of the Lionesses after their World Cup final defeat to Spain and the impact their success will have on women’s football. There is also reaction from both Palace and Arsenal dressing rooms, as Rice, Hodgson and Arteta give their reaction to the result.

By the final round of group games, Euro 88 was effectively a six-team tournament. Denmark and England were already eliminated and barely had any pride left to play for. Group A was concluded with simultaneous games on Friday night, just a week – and a lifetime – after the tournament had begun. The hosts West Germany played Spain in Munich, with the likelihood that the semi-finals wouldn’t be big enough for the both of them. West Germany needed a draw, Spain a win. Italy, who many felt had been the best team in the tournament to date, needed only a draw against Denmark to guarantee qualification. Group B was settled the following afternoon, with the BBC deciding to show Republic of Ireland’s decisive match against the Netherlands instead of England v USSR. Assuming a collectively depressed England side didn’t win that game (spoiler alert…), Ireland knew they would reach the semis with a draw. The Netherlands had no such luxury; if they didn’t win, they were almost certainly going home. Martyn, Gary and Rob chat about all four games… and Bryan Robson taking our his frustrations on Peter Shilton’s chin. Oh, and Rob’s dog Margot makes an unscripted appearance. If you like the podcast, please spread the word and rate/review us on your podcast app. The more people who listen to Nessun Dorma, the greater our chances of one day telling The Man where he might like to deposit his 9-5.

Paul, Chris, Dan & Chloe are here for this week’s Redmen Originals Podcast as they round up all the LFC news including Curtis Jones & Harvey Elliott's U21 Euro's victory with a 1-0 win over Spain in the final. They also discuss what are Liverpool's transfer priorities for the rest of the transfer window as reports continue to link the Reds with a move for another midfielder and a defender. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Euro 88 was only four days old when the second of group games began, but our old friend jeopardy was already running amok. After a nervous start, the hosts West Germany took on an ailing Denmark in Gelsenkirchen. A few hours later, also in Group A, Italy met Spain in what was felt like a de facto quarter-final. Then, on Wednesday afternoon, we rushed home from school (or, in Gary’s case, grabbed a seat in front of a 15-inch TV with a load of fashionistas) for the big one: England v the Netherlands, a match that both teams could barely afford to draw, never mind lose. In the evening, Ireland produced arguably the finest performance of the Jack Charlton years against the USSR in a game that included a famous goal and a forgotten first touch to die for. Martyn, Gary and Rob rave about a teenage Paolo Maldini, discuss English football’s obsession with individual heroism, question an iconic hat-trick and celebrate a partnership from the future: Ruud Gullit and Marco van Basten.

Our look back at Euro 88 continues with the first round of group games. On Friday 10 June 1988, the tournament kicked off with a tense match between West Germany, the hosts and favourites, and a vibrant young Italian side. The other Group A game took place the following afternoon, a thrilling if slightly shambolic contest between Denmark and Spain. There were five goals and a fair bit of controversy, but the highlight for English audiences was a brief, comic loss of temper from the usually immaculate Barry Davies. In Group B, two of the pre-tournament favourites – England and the Netherlands – got underway. England faced an FA Cup tie against the Republic of Ireland, whose 20-man squad included 16 England-based players. In the evening we finally got to see the Netherlands, including their Ballon d’Or-winning captain Ruud Gullit. They took on European Championship royalty: the USSR. This is a public episode.

A new series of Nessun Dorma starts with the first part of our deep dive into Euro 88, the last major tournament in Europe before the big bang of Italia 90. Martyn Ramsay, Gary Naylor and Rob Smyth set the scene for a much anticipated tournament. “Whatever happens,” wrote David Lacey in his preview for the Guardian, “the 1988 European Championship should set new standards on the field.” Martyn, Gary and Rob discuss where football was at in 1988, recall the highlights of qualification – including Ireland’s favourite Scotsman and the Cypriot keeper who was almost blown up – and preview each team’s prospects ahead of the tournament. Were England valid second favourites? How much did we know about the Netherlands? And who was Matthias Herget? The draw Group 1 West Germany, Italy, Spain, Denmark Group 2 England, Netherlands, USSR, Republic of Ireland Pre-tournament odds 7/4 West Germany 5/1 England, Netherlands 13/2 Italy 7/1 USSR 11/1 Spain, Denmark 25/1 Republic of Ireland This is a public episode.

The 2022/23 club season is coming to an end, but there are still plenty of off-the-pitch storylines to discuss!

Next it’s off to Germany, where Freiburg recorded a historic win at Bayern to end Thomas Tuchel’s side’s hopes of a treble (12:05), Leipzig made a tough week tougher for Dortmund and there were more goals from Randal Kolo Muani. In Italy, there were grim scenes as Romelu Lukaku received more racist abuse at Juventus, then received a second yellow for his response to the crowd after scoring Inter’s equalising penalty (19:15). Finally, there’s also some chat about this week’s round of Premier League fixtures, including a great night for Newcastle and yet another win for Aston Villa (24:35), plus a bit on Frank Lampard’s return to Chelsea, recorded before the news was confirmed.

After Rodri and Spain got tangled in the long grass at Hampden, Dotun, Andy and David are here to ask what’s going on with Spain. A one-off slip-up, or are they just short of talent right now? Next, we answer your questions about Thomas Tuchel’s move to Bayern Munich!

Joe Devine, JJ Bull, Jon Mackenzie and Reuben Pinder are here to talk about some football. The boys look at why Crystal Palace made the decision to relieve Patrick Vieira of his managerial duties. We talk about Tottenham and Antonio Conte’s searingly honest press conference after their 3-3 draw with Southampton. The Champions League has reached the quarter final stage and there are some real juicy ties that we drool all over. In Spain, Barcelona opened up an eight point gap over Real Madrid with a 2-1 in El Classico. Man Utd’s progress to the FA Cup semi-final was marred by a mad 40 second in which Fulham had two men sent off in the space of a minute.
