Rog is joined by Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton to talk about how he sees the game. Adam reflects on his early YouTube skills videos and the practice habits that shaped his touch, then goes into the “message” he sends with every pass. He walks through his warm-up scanning routine and breaks down his chemistry with Jean-Philippe Mateta. Wharton closes on what success means to him now that he's won two trophies and where he wants to grow.

Rog and Rory are back ahead of this week's Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League action, and deep dive into the rise and (potential) fall of Diego Simeone, the living legend prowling Atletico Madrid's touchline.

Then, Rog and Rory breakdown how Barcelona's season might hinge (once again) on previously retired, nicotine-addicted Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny. All of this and more on the latest European Nights.
