On this week's show we look back on some of last weekend's top World Cup qualifiers. We consider the prospect of a tournament without Argentina and Portugal and croon over the glory that is Brazil. We also resolve the Emile Heskey v Jermaine Defoe debate so you don't have to. After that we discuss the implications of Chelsea's transfer embargo and ponder the morality behind the youth recruitment policy of top European clubs.

With Chris Oakley, Graham Sibley and Terry Duffelen.
