Jon Driscoll and Terry Gibson tackle all things La Liga in latest podcast
Monday 19 September 2016 19:59, UK
Jon Driscoll and Terry Gibson return for an in-depth take on all the action and major talking points in La Liga.
With Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale missing for Real Madrid's trip to Espanyol on Sunday, James Rodriguez's influential performance at the Estadi Cornella-El Prat is first under the microscope, as too is whether their ability to grind out a result should worry Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.
Having bounced back from their shock defeat to newly-promoted Alaves with emphatic victories against Celtic and Leganes, Driscoll and Gibson question Barca's ability to win games with without 'MSN' before highlighting Gerard Pique's changing role in the heart of the Catalans' defence.
Gibson then offers his thoughts on Diego Simeone's unexpected decision to publicise that his contract at the Vicente Calderon had been reduced by two years, and what this could mean for Atletico going forward.
