International break but no let-up: Chris and Joe are in the studio asking the big one - what actually makes football fun? We get into pragmatism vs purity, Mourinho’s Anfield masterclass, sterile possession, and why a bit of sh*thousery can be glorious when it wins you points. There’s a loan watch, too. Strasbourg’s youngsters catching the eye, Anselmino’s stop-start, the Jackson question, and a look at Giovanni Quenda lighting it up before his summer arrival — the Estevão pathway all over again? Chris also takes the goal-music debate to the club — emails, replies, guidelines, and a plea to keep the celebration organic (or at least delayed). Fans are split; we chew through both sides. Then it’s Forest away on Saturday lunchtime: first game back, a rare post-break advantage for Chelsea, and the need to back up Liverpool with a grown-up three points.
