E34: Shine bright like a big Spanish wingerless diamond

It's a tale of two halves this week - from misery to elation, league disappointment to European excitement in the space of 80 minutes.
Episode 34 is in the wild and on this week's podcast we've managed to get the whole way through an actual month in game, meaning we're clearing the end of October in Spain all the way through to the start of December.

The fixtures list is a mess, the injuries have mounted up, star players need resting, team meetings are dividing dressing rooms and we're both still dropping points to teams at the foot of the division.

At Atletico, a former star looks like he's making a return as the board have a change of heart over transfer restrictions.

At Real, a new star looks like he's turning a corner and it might just be at exactly the right time too.

While we navigate October and November's games, we'll also squeeze in a live Champions League outing to finish the month - do stick around for that one as we wind up with an absolute goal-fest out of nowhere with Mainz and Leverkusen coming to town with the intention of scuppering Champions League knockout qualification.

And how's the sack race going? You'll have to ask the king of eggs himself...

Contains strong language.
