Description

The Athletic's Adam Hurrey, Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker select a lineup of the most classic footballer-related adjectives, from "eccentric" goalkeepers to "impish" forwards via "talismanic" midfielders.
Meanwhile, the Adjudication Panel pick out the classic protagonists of a textbook pitch invasion, cast doubt over the Premier League futures of some emerging transfer-gossip stars and take a deep dive into Richard Keys and Andy Gray's 2002 appearance on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?"
