The Brian Barry-Murphy interview

Life with Cardiff City has started well for Brian Barry-Murphy. The Irishman has a 65% win ratio from his first 20 games. The Bluebirds have spent the majority of the season at the top of League One. A standout win over Wrexham has secured a place in the last eight of the EFL Cup against Chelsea. And host of talented youngsters are starting show their true potential. No wonder he's in relaxed mood as he discusses his first four months in charge, and how he relishes the "refreshingly honest" demands given to him by the owner Vincent Tan.

Cardiff City certainly delivered a statement win over Wrexham in the EFL Cup, giving further evidence of the progress made under manager Brian Barry-Murphy this season. There were plenty of polished performances, but maybe none more so than Rubin Colwill. But will his display - witnessed in person by Craig Bellamy - be enough to force him into the Wales manager's plans for next month's World Cup qualifiers?Rhian Wilkinson has also been left with plenty of food for thought after two friendly defeats to Australia and Poland extended Wales' poor run to seven consecutive defeats, and no wins in their last 11 games.And Sam prepares for a return to Newport in the FA Cup with Gillingham.

Carl Roberts, Nia Jones and Rob Earnshaw chat to two members of the Wales squad before Jess Fishlock's farewell match against Australia.

Where would Wales be without Ben Davies? And how will they fill the void once he's gone? Since making his debut in 2012, the 32-year-old has hardly put a foot wrong in the Wales defence, and continues to lead from the front despite limited opportunities at Spurs. He become only the fourth Welshman to reach 100 caps when Wales lost a crucial World Cup qualifier a week ago, but he wants more. Much more.In between a morning tactical session and gym work at Spurs' training ground, he joins the crew to reflect and his achievement, and, as you'd expect, to reminisce about the magical summer he shared alongside Sam in France during Euro 2016.There's also a full review of the weekend club action as Cardiff City head back to the top of League One, while Newport County hit rock bottom.

Carl Roberts, Iwan Roberts and Sam Vokes pay tribute to Jess Fishlock following her decision to retire from international football and reflect on two defeats for Craig Bellamy's Wales against England and Belgium.

After impressive midweek performances by Swansea City and Wrexham, Iwan and Sam believe both clubs can mount a serious challenge for the play-off places in the Championship. Although still early in the season, the pair agree the door to reach the top six is wide open in the absence of any outstanding rivals.Another unexpected home defeat for Cardiff City put the breaks on their charge back to the top of League One, while there is no sign of Newport's horrendous run coming to an end.Iwan confesses to some violent outburst, while Saint Sam confirms his place as the 'Gary Lineker' of Wales. And talking of Wales, will Aaron Ramsey play a part in the friendly with England or the crucial qualifier that follows against Belgium?

For the first time in history, three Welsh clubs have reached the fourth round of the EFL Cup in the same season - cementing some encouraging and improving early-season form for Cardiff City, Swansea City and Wrexham. There's not much to shout about at Newport County, though. Sam's Gillingham record-breaking side were the latest to increase the pressure on manager Dave Hughes, but at least the Rodney Parade faithful made their presence felt on the away dugout.Iwan recalls having to play with a retired goalkeeper in an FA Cup semi-final, and Carl confesses to shameful red cards in his parks football days.

Since taking his first tentative steps into management just over a year ago, Robbie Savage has been riding on the crest of a wave. The former Wales midfielder won the Northern Premier League Premier Division title with six games to spare last season, prompting Forest Green Rovers to give him his first taste of professional management with a four-year contract in July. An unbeaten start to this season sees Savage's side sitting joint top of League Two.But the 50-year-old is a latecomer to management, having forged a career as an outspoken pundit since retiring from playing in 2011. So why the change? And does his famously combative and emotional character suit the highly pressurized role of a lower league manager? Savage provides an honest and open assessment of his new career and future prospects, offering a glimpse of the competitive fire that typified his playing career.
