The weekend's football should have dominated the headlines, especially when Chelsea so memorably ended Manchester City's incredible unbeaten streak.

And yet instead we ended up talking about the darker side of the game, and an incident where Raheem Sterling not only called out the racist abuse he received but the conditions that have lead to that being normalised.

The guys also found time to preview the Champions League fixtures this week - most notably FC Barcelona vs Tottenham - while Miguel was able to speak about the Copa Libertadores final that he attended on Sunday night, the lessons learned from an utter disaster and what the future of the competition might look like.
