The Commentators' View: Bellingham left out & commentary tattoos

Steve Crossman is joined by Julien Laurens, Guillem Balague and James Horncastle to focus in on some of the top performing number 9s in the Champions League this week.

Do the performances of Senny Mayulu and Goncalo Ramos in PSG’s win over Barcelona showcase the club’s continuing conveyor belt of talent? 

Galatasaray’s Victor Osimhen scored to see his team beat Liverpool; why hasn’t he been the transfer target of other major European clubs? 

Mjallby Assistant Coach Karl Marius Aksum joins the pod as his team could win the title in Sweden for the first time in 86 years later this week. What makes their style of football a more fruitful version of Ruben Amorim’s tactics at Manchester United? 

Plus, Julien and James discuss their experiences of ‘spying’ when trying to figure out starting line-ups.
