Summary
The Athletic's Adam Hurrey is joined by Charlie Eccleshare and Nick Miller for the Adjudication Panel.
On the agenda: every recorded Jack Grealish reaction being fouled, the intensely disturbing vibe of Nathan Jones, the commentary turning point of Harry Kane's 267-goal Spurs compilation and an astonishing moment of radio-reporter synchronicity.
Meanwhile, the panel decide when a team can be described as "high-flying" and discuss the nuanced meaning of the word "benched."
Produced by Abi Paterson
