The latest round of action across Europe's 'Big Five' leagues has predictably produced a plethora of talking points, with Arsenal, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid all in fine form. The Gunners are six points clear at the top of the Premier League after scoring yet another set-piece goal, and keeping another clean sheet, in their 2-0 victory at Burnley. Meanwhile, both Bayern and Real have five-point leads in Germany and Spain, respectively, after comfortable wins over the weekend.

New Juventus coach Luciano Spalletti has urged his players to be ambitious and set their sights on winning the Scudetto this season. The Italian tactician, who replaced Igor Tudor at the helm, emphasised that the players will be the driving force behind any potential turnaround, insisting that their mentality and commitment will determine how far the team can go.

New Juventus head coach Luciano Spalletti was subject to hateful banners and social media posts from Napoli supporters, who labelled the former coach as a "disgraceful man" and "a traitor." The reaction from the Partenopei fans comes after Spalletti joined their Serie A rivals in a deal until the end of the season, although the ex-Italy boss clarified that Naples will always be in his heart.

Juventus have confirmed the appointment of Luciano Spalletti following Igor Tudor's dismissal earlier this week. Tudor succeeded Thiago Motta in Turin in March and was handed a three-year contract after guiding Juventus to the Champions League. Juventus currently sit seventh in Serie A following their midweek 3-1 win over Udinese, though they are just three points behind rivals Inter in third.

Juventus are on the lookout for a new manager following Igor Tudor's sacking this week with Luciano Spalletti expected to take over. However, Enzo Maresca, who was on the Juventus books between 2000 and 2004, has been linked with the vacant managerial role in Turin. Chelsea, though, won't sanction his exit at this stage of the season as the Blues look to add to their recent silverware under the Italian.
