Heading in a tin foil hat

For all the yellow ties and #HereWeGo nonsense, the January window does occasionally throw Ramble HQ a few bones. Today, it's potential high-profile returns for Diego Costa, Hatem Ben Arfa and Christian Eriksen - bosh! Kate, Luke and Pete pick through the good, the bad (more Premier League postponements) and the ugly (Everton's latest plight) on today's Ramble. We also celebrate another Spurs trophy and hear more of Pete's wall-licking exploits.

On The Continent: Madrid derby, the race for Italy's top four, and The Barber of Leipzig

Greetings OTCers! It's time for yet another episode of our European football show and today Luke and Andy is joined by Spanish football expert David Cartlidge to discuss all the big stories from around the continent. This week we look ahead to a big derby in Spain as Atletico, beset with muscle injury worries, head to the Bernabeu. What's become of El Cholo and his team this season? Meanwhile, in Italy, there's a race on for the top four, but Torino most certainly aren't in it. Roma, Atalanta and perhaps even Milan are though. Can Zlatan do the unthinkable and help this Milan side actually achieve something? Yep, there's all this and more - Leipzig's Ralf Rangnick getting annoyed at a celebrity barber, Hatem Ben Arfa making an appearance alongside the original Ronaldo, and Steven Bergwijn rocking up at Spurs. Don't miss it! ***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.
