Jimbo, James Horncastle and special guest Rafa Honigstein examine the three legendary Germans who made Inter record-breakers at the turn of the 90s.

Lothar Matthaus, Jurgen Klinsmann and Andreas Brehme were an integral part of West Germany’s World Cup winning side in 1990. They would all join forces at San Siro, with Matthaus and Brehme contributing to an Inter title win achieved with a record points total, and Klinsmann helping to capture the UEFA Cup too.

We look at a trio that helped define a time when Serie A was the true superpower of European football.

Jimbo welcomes back James Horncastle and Gab Marcotti to discuss one of the most recognisable names and haircuts in Italian football history – Fabrizio Ravanelli.

The man who said he was born to be a bricklayer was on the scoresheet the last time Juventus won the Champions League. A silver fox with one of the most imitated goal celebrations of all time, we examine whether his legend was rather more modest than we remember. And how exactly did he end up at Middlesbrough? And Dundee?

• PART 1b: The Ravanelli story starts in Perugia (06m 00s)

The start saw a string of sackings but Luciano Spalletti’s managerial career caught fire in his first spell at Roma, one of the most tactically significant coaching stints of the last 20 years. Defined by the discovery of the 4-6-0 formation that rejuvenated Francesco Totti.

RUNNING ORDER:

• PART 1a: Famous for being fired – Spalletti’s chaotic beginnings (04m 00s)

• PART 3b: Returning to Roma to retire Totti (39m 00s)

• PART 4: Spalletti at Inter – the Icardi affair (45m 00s)

• PART 5: Would you appoint Spalletti? (52m 30s)
