About this episode
Daniel Dodds is Nottingham Forest's Head of Academy recruitment having previously been Talent ID manager for England's under 15-17 men's teams, during which the under 17s won the world cup. We discussed the process of identifying talent in football, drawing parallels with cricket and other sports as well as the various factors that contribute to talent getting results. This is an absorbing look into the work of an area of sport that is largely misunderstood. Apologies for the sound quality at certain points! Support the show
