Flying meal deals: Champions League drama, Chelsea visit Anfield, and can Crystal Palace spoil Pep’s party?
The weekend ahead sees many a potential thigh rubber, but is it Liverpool vs Chelsea? Burnley vs Cardiff? Sean Dyche vs Neil Warnock? It’ll probably be all of them. As well as looking forward, we look back over recent Champions League ding dongs, including harking back to Liverpool and Chelsea’s drab beef of yesteryear, via yet more football food fights and a worrying spread of potential misinformation from a rogue Jim. A different Jim that is, not our resident one.

12 Eggs of Easter: Leeds United 2001
When most people think of the Leeds United side of this era they think of the reckless whisk assessment that led to their ultimately devastating financial irr-egg-ularities, but it was an enjoyable ride up to then.Their two-egged Champions League semi-final against Valencia, in which most of the squad shaved their heads, was the peak of this ride, and we’re here to reminisce about the hatching of their audacious European plan.
