In this episode of "Talking with..." Daniel sits down with Mutanda Kwesele.

They discuss Mutanda growing up in Seattle, Washington after moving to the United States from Zambia. How he became a professional footballer, and ways his journey shaped his view of the sport. Then how the United States' political posture can be seen in American football, and why American football and football don't easily blend when investigating the cognitive and functional demands found in each game. It ends with a quick fire round and where the next conversation will start (i.e. the role of the African coach).

Three wide players employed by Manchester United: Mason Greenwood to Getafe, Jadon Sancho relationship's with Erik ten Hag, and can Antony be allowed to play after Brazil dropped him?
