Summary

Barcelona dropped more points against Atlético Madrid midweek, so Musa and Ryan discuss the troubles facing the defending La Liga champions (04:50), including the mismanagement at board level of a squad that has a player of Messi's caliber and how his brilliance is being wasted, before heading around the rest of La Liga (27:10). They move on to Serie A, following big wins for Juventus and Inter (29:58) and a much-needed win for Sampdoria. There's a roundup the NWSL Challenge Cup, including the impressive North Carolina Courage win over Washington Spirit (34:28), and then the Premier League, which saw West Ham upset Chelsea, Manchester United impress again, and Newcastle continue to play well (44:30). We'll publish a bonus episode on Friday, when Musa and Ryan go through some footballing what-ifs. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
