Adam Hurrey is joined by Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker on the Football Cliches podcast's fifth anniversary. The agenda includes: a Serie A commentary tribute from an unexpected source, the 1990 version of “if Lionel Messi did that, we’d all be raving about it”, yet another Premier League name in a true-crime documentary, co-commentator Gary Breen plucks some Barry Manilow out of nowhere, a one-time-only return for Premier League Years Playlist Bingo and a celebration of half a decade of having the language of football on absolute toast.

Meanwhile, the panel briefly ponder how many consecutive clean sheets it would take to get a goalkeeper from Sunday League to the Premier League - and Charlie's "generic football pundit" voice takes on its ultimate challenge.
