E205: Athletic annihilated on Valverde's return, Barca praying for Plzen

Send us a text

Barcelona made it back-to-back wins in LaLiga with an impressive 4-0 win against Athletic Club on Sunday. Ousmane Dembele, Sergi Roberto, Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres scored the goals to spoil Ernesto Valverde's return to Camp Nou. 

Sam, Rik and Toni discuss that win, Xavi's midfield four, Dembele's masterclass, Alejandro Balde for Spain and gentleman Valverde. 

Thoughts then turn to Wednesday, when Barça's Champions League future will be in the hands of Viktoria Plzen, who take on Inter Milan. By the time Barça then kick off against Bayern Munich, they will know if their Champions League campaign is still alive or not. How will that affect the planning and the game?
