European soccer news: Barca make it work without transfers

We were back last week, but now we're really back. The Bundesliga returned this weekend -- joining the Premier League, LaLiga, Serie A and Ligue 1, all of which returned last weekend -- and it seems like the German league picked up right where it left off.

Bayer Leverkusen, surprise winners last campaign, are back at it, winning out the gate in dramatic fashion. Meanwhile in England, reigning champions Manchester City look more dangerous than ever. In Spain, it didn't matter that Barcelona are still missing some transfer targets.
