On the podcast today: a rare opportunity for Football Weekly Extra to cover the Europa League with a host of fixtures played on a Wednesday evening. Ange Postecoglou’s search for a first win as Nottingham Forest manager continues – but a 2-2 draw at Real Betis isn’t a bad way to start a campaign. And Celtic draw 1-1 away in Belgrade.
Elsewhere, in the League Cup, there are straightforward wins for the Premier League clubs, all of whom field quite strong teams. More importantly, two of Emile Heskey’s sons make the Manchester City bench.
Plus there’s a Premier League weekend preview, proposals for a 64-team men’s World Cup and your questions are answered.
