PSG party, tight trousers and Koeman’s move to Barcelona – Football Weekly

We start with RB Leipzig’s lacklustre performance against Paris Saint-Germain, and debate how good the Parisians and their German manager, Thomas Tuchel, really are. The panel also share their thoughts on tonight’s second Champions League semi-final – another Franco-German showdown– between Lyon and Bayern Munich.

Today’s panel also take a look at how RB Leipzig’s Julian Nagelsmann is doing in the football manager fashion stakes, and you’ll hear what exactly looked like “two eggs in a hanky”, according to Barry.

And finally, the panel will look to the serious business of how Newcastle United fans may be closer to the takeover news they are desperate to hear, and how a significant High Court ruling against Fifa may impact the way that football is governed in the future.

We’ll have another episode for you tomorrow, with all the reaction to tonight’s Champions League action.
