After 315 days on the sidelines, Paul Pogba is back on the pitch for Juventus. And from the reception he got last night, he’s back in his spiritual home.

Can he change the mood in Turin? Dotun, Andy and David discuss that after putting Barcelona under the microscope. How have they struggled so much in Europe while dominating in La Liga? And why are some Barcelona fans calling for Xavi’s dismissal?

Plus, Milan’s secret weapon against Spurs and celebrating 40 years of Pepe.
