James Richardson and the pod squad look ahead to 2013-14 season in the Premier League and beyond

And we're back!

It's our big season preview, and James Richardson is joined in pod by Barry Glendenning, Jacob Steinberg and Rafa Honigstein to discuss all the summer shenanigans in the Premier League and beyond.

Will David Moyes seemlessly step into Lord Ferg's shoes? Will Manuel Pellegrini bring both holistic and trophy-winning football to Manchester City? How long will José Mourinho stay happy and humble in his second stint at Stamford Bridge? And what about all those far-from-tedious transfer sagas with Wayne Rooney, Luis Suárez and Gareth Bale?

We try to answer all these questions, and if all that wasn't enough, there's also Sid Lowe on the phone for the lowdown on La Liga, Philippe Auclair giving us the skinny about the ridiculously large sums of money being spent by Monaco and PSG in Ligue 1, and Ewan Murray getting excited about Scottish football.

We'll be back to our regular twice-weekly schedule from next Monday – with just the one proviso: Jimbo's doing his annual pilgrimage to the World's Strongest Man competition, so TV's Max Rushden will be in the hot seat for our first few shows.

So, have a listen, leave your comments on the blog below, and have a look at our lovely video previews for all of the Premier League clubs too. And if you're into other sporting endeavours, be sure to check out our Ashes podcast and our new running audio guides. Wooooooooooof!
