  1. Is Richard Hughes to blame for Liverpool's poor season?

    Liverpool sporting director Richard Hughes has a very cold, analytical approach to his role - so much so, in fact, that he was once described as "robot" by an agent who had dealt with him. Of course, being devoid of emotion probably wouldn't be such a bad thing for Hughes, given the nature of his job and the potential for being adversely affected by the wildly differing views on the work he's doing at Anfield.

Ahead of matchday eight, when all of the games will kick-off at the same time on Wednesday, several elite European teams are in real danger of missing out on direct qualification for the last 16. Indeed, Barcelona (ninth), Manchester City (11th), Atletico Madrid (12th) and Inter (14th) all currently sit outside the coveted top eight spots.

  4. Can Guehi alone save Man City's 'embarrassing' season?

    Pep Guardiola has never been one to mince his words, but his tone after Manchester City were ripped to shreds by tiny Bodo/Glimt on Tuesday was almost apocalyptic. While he did point out that his side were missing 11 players for their trip to the Arctic Circle and was hugely complimentary of their victors, he laid out the state his team are in right now in no uncertain terms.
