The European football season is upon us once again and our friends over at On The Continent have got you covered. You may well have had enough of experts, but these ones are well worth listening to. Each week Dotun Adebayo and Andy Brassell are joined by the very best European football minds to guide you through each week of the Serie A, Bundesliga and La Liga seasons - and well beyond them, too.

This week, Kevin Hatchard joins the show to preview the Bundesliga campaign set to start this weekend. Plus, Roma start their season with a bang thanks to the brilliance of Paulo Dybala.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Carabao is back! Sadly, Tom Brady did not show the competition the respect it deserves after he spent more time worrying about his leather trousers than he did investing in Birmingham City. Disappointing.

Elsewhere, Marcus, Pete and David discuss Celtic’s Champions League exit. Plus, Michael Owen hits back at his critics and a robot does its best Cristiano Ronaldo impression.

How about that for a first Monday Night Football of the season, eh? Marcus Spellers' beautiful Cottagers took the fight to their west London neighbours but in the end it was Chelsea who, despite Robert Sánchez's best efforts, came out on top.

Jim joins Marcus this morning to react to the game. Plus, is it time for big boy Penders to have a go in net? Why can't you say "bomb squad" anymore? And do we want to wish the great-grandson of a fascist dictator good luck?
