info_outlineWelcome to another extra-long, extra-special, extra-early edition of Football Weekly ... Extraaaaaaahhhhhhhh (as Gary Neville might put it).
James Richardson has Blizzard editor Jonathan Wilson, Michael 'MC Tactics' Cox ofZonal Marking and Barry Glendenning in for some intellectual jousting as we look back on the extraordinary second legs in the Champions League semi-finals. Depending on your point of view, Chelsea were heroic or horrible as they knocked out the holders Barcelona, while José Mourinho was surprisingly magnanimous as his Real Madrid side lost on penalties to Bayern Munich. As ever, Sid Lowe gives us the reaction from Spain.
We also look forward to the next round of fixtures in the Premier League, not least the Manchester derby. Will it decide the destiny of the title? Will it live up to the hype? Will we be recording on Tuesday instead of Monday next week to take in the result of an inevitably anti-climactic game? Answers: probably, no, and yes.
Finally, we head over to wonks' corner to test the tactical nous of our eminent panellists. Have your notebook and pen ready.
Jacob Steinberg and Barney Ronaywill be with us for our post-derby show on Tuesday. Make sure you are too.
And please - a minute's silence and a black armband: it's the last time you'll be hearing the American Man From Audible ... for the time being (sad face). Don't forget to bag your free audiobook before it's too late!
