In this episode we look back at the 2-1 win over Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night. We start with a discussion about the difficulties of facing a low block approach, and we wonder whether fan anxiety about our ability to break down packed defences is one that will be shared by the team and the manager – especially on an evening when we did find enough to win the game, in no small part thanks to Gabriel Jesus. We chat about how we found joy, especially in the second half; conceding a late goal to add some nerves to the ending; and the heated discussion between Ben White and Oleksandr Zinchenko after the final whistle. Then we have listener questions about football terminology, players shifting positions in-game, why it is we concede so often to the opposition's first chance, Albert Sambi Lokonga, and lots more.
