Summary
The Athletic's Adam Hurrey, Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker are reunited for the Adjudication Panel. On the agenda this week: the footballing implications of the phrase "whisper it (quietly) but...", the Big Premier League "Manager or Head Coach" Quiz for 2022-23, the slightly fictional-sounding ex-Serie A journeyman now playing in the tenth tier of English football and the definitive "breath of fresh air" team in Premier League history
Meanwhile, Charlie reports from Seoul on how former Leeds and Manchester United ball of fury Alan Smith helped create an everyday Korean cliché.
