Right, OK: Banks, Grobbelaar, Gunok. What does that say to you about saves - from relatively close range efforts - that specifically involve near-instinctive clawing/shovelling of the ball upwards and sideways just over the angle of post and bar? ....There's too many of them? That's one way of looking at it, another way of looking at it is: people like them, goalkeepers should make some more of them

I loved recording this episode and, while putting it together, I realised that Soccer Saturday – for all the obvious appeal of the format for the last 30 years, all its various quirks – is a massively underrated time capsule for huge moments: Aguero 2012, Jimmy Glass's miracle goal... and the beach ball at Sunderland. The gradual realisation of Jeff & The Boys here of what's happened is genuinely superb television.
