After a dismal week, German football fans have never been more apathetic towards their national team. But can they turn it around? Today, David Cartlidge joins Dotun and Andy to explain why he thinks the current players are simply not likeable enough to win the fans over in time for a home Euros.

Elsewhere, with La Liga suffering from “El Virus Fifa”, they wonder if recent injuries during the international break only strengthen Atlético Madrid’s chances of winning the league. Plus, Inter Milan vs Juventus: is it too early to call it a title decider?
