Why Xavi reached breaking point at Barcelona, plus Inter Juve looms large

Jimbo is back with the colossal continental crew of James Horncastle, Julien Laurens, Alvaro Romeo and Raphael Honigstein. Xavi announces he will be leaving Barcelona at the end of the season, just 4 months after signing a contract extension as manager. What led to the Barca legend calling it quits and where do the Catalan club go from here? Where does Jurgen Klopp go from here? Is it straight to the German national job? His heir apparent Xabi Alonso saw his Leverkusen side lose ground in the title race this weekend. The top two meet on Sunday with Inter going into their clash with Juventus back on top of the table. Elsewhere in Serie A, is Ruben Loftus-Cheek making a strong bid for the Euros? Plus PSG throw away a 2-0 lead to an increasingly impressive Brest, while we also witness the youngest player to be sent off in Ligue 1 history.
