The Athletic's Adam Hurrey, Charlie Eccleshare and Michael Cox navigate their way around the language of the football pitch, from the fabled "mixer" to the sovereign state of "James Ward-Prowse territory". How big is a "pocket of space"? How exactly does a goalkeeper find themselves in "no man's land"? And will football ever go fully metric?
They also discuss whether "cheese slice" is ever an acceptable way to describe a yellow card and precisely what constitutes "rolling back the years", before Charlie and Michael go head-to-head in the latest instalment of "Out Of Control".
