SPM 197: Knee-jerk Reactions (Part 2)

Set Piece Menu Football Podcast

The football: The second part of our conversation about early season knee-jerk reactions asks if players are immune to them, or whether in the social media age they're more aware of those premature judgements. Are they capable of inoculating themselves, or can the sanctity of their bubble become compromised by all the talk going on outside the club? And if they do hear it, how do they react? The food: Hugh is very proud of his Dutch Spiced Apple Cake, which he has purchased from his local garden centre, a place that you wouldn't normally find Dutch Spiced Apple Cake. PLUS: The team make their own knee-jerk based predictions, in an effort to: a) be childish, and b) undermine everything that has been said in the two most recent podcasts.
