Summary
A win's a win...
Matt Davies-Adams has got Simon Johnson and Luke Bosher alongside him as we reflect on the first competitive victory of the Enzo Maresca reign in their 2-0 win over Servette on Thursday night.
We take a closer look at some of the explosive comments in Enzo's pre-match press conference regarding the size of the squad and futures of Raheem Sterling and Ben Chilwell. Simon was in the room to witness the spiciness.
Then - it's all eyes on Sunday afternoon's trip to Wolves - a place that has NOT been a happy hunting ground for the Blues in recent years. The Athletic's Wolves expert Steve Madeley joins us to shine the spotlight on Gary O'Neil's side.
Oh - and it wouldn't be a Thursday (or Friday!) pod without a quiz...
We'll be back on Monday to reflect on the trip to Molineux and look ahead to the Conference League second leg out in Geneva.
HOST: Matt Davies-Adams
WITH: Simon Johnson, Luke Bosher & Steve Madeley
