Summary
The Athletic's Adam Hurrey is joined by Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker for the Adjudication Panel. On the agenda this week: players who deserve to have their names used as footballing verbs, Tony Pulis' apparently exclusive phrase of "leg beaters", some alarming US TV co-commentary from Lee Dixon and an unexpected debate about "unanswered goals".
Meanwhile, the panel get stuck into a bumper edition of Keys & Gray Corner, as the boys out in Doha welcome none other than Sean Dyche to their podcast. The results are exceptional.
