We cannot wait for Saturday. To help get us in the mood, the team tackles 10 season-defining questions (including: first meltdowns, dream Champions League opponents, pre-match music revamps, favourite N17 pubs and the definitive take on the away shirt) before predicting how the opening game will actually go. Rosa speaks beautifully on women's football in a remarkable week for the sport, and gets us hyped ahead of a crucial season for Rehanne Skinner's revamped squad. Elsewhere, Billie is, of course, Rolling in the Tweets with a first-game-of-the-season special (thank you all for your amazing tweets) and we dish out our weekly culture picks.
