• 0:15
  SPEAKER_00: Hello and welcome to On the Edge Sports Podcast, Premier League weekly show with myself, Brendan Tierney, and Darren Kearns here on my left.
• 0:21
  SPEAKER_00: Now we are two Arsenal fans, but we'll try and be as unbiased as we can.
• 0:24
  SPEAKER_00: Darren, let's get straight into it.
• 0:26
  SPEAKER_00: It kicks off this weekend, Friday night, Arsenal play Coventry, as we said, both our team.
• 0:30
  SPEAKER_00: We're hoping that's hopefully that's one of those games that's not a potential banana skin.
• 0:33
  SPEAKER_00: But like uh there's been a lot of changes in the Premier League this year.
• 0:37
  SPEAKER_00: Um let's kind of go through our predictions and we'll start going through you know where things have changed and who's the ins and outs and whatnot.
• 0:43
  SPEAKER_00: Who's gonna win the league?
• 0:44
  SPEAKER_01: Arsenal.
• 0:45
  SPEAKER_01: Arsenal and back to back, back to back.
• 0:47
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 0:47
  SPEAKER_00: And I don't think we're being um rose tinted.
• 0:50
  SPEAKER_00: I think I've read the papers and a lot of people are picking it.
• 0:52
  SPEAKER_00: So like we like to detach our rose tintedness here.
• 0:55
  SPEAKER_00: Everything you see so far, now maybe there's gonna be signings the next week or two that might change you know the balance for some teams, but yeah, they do look in a great position.
• 1:01
  SPEAKER_00: Even the community shield there, which we know is a friendly, but like just the way they wiped cities.
• 1:05
  SPEAKER_01: Glorified friendly, but at the end of the day, um just with the squad, they're adding to it, same manager in place, lots of other teams, different managers coming in.
• 1:16
  SPEAKER_01: You don't know where that's going to end up, and I just think that it's you know, i at the moment it's probably Arsen's to lose.
• 1:24
  SPEAKER_00: The the way it's setting up, and again, from reading everything, yeah, they just and even at Solace, the new winger, yeah, like maybe he's just that dogged Caravaskelia kind of player that comes in and not I'm not saying he's that level, but that you know, there's no messing with him, there's no heirs aggressive, but he does a job and does it well.
• 1:39
  SPEAKER_00: And he's gonna be able to do it.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_01: And there's hold me hands up, I didn't know who he was.
• 1:43
  SPEAKER_01: Ah, sure.
• 1:44
  SPEAKER_00: None of us did, but I was reading up on him and like in fairness, he played in the Belgian League with uh Club Brugger, I think.
• 1:49
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, cut away he played in Norwich a few years ago, didn't he?
• 1:52
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I don't even know.
• 1:53
  SPEAKER_00: We don't even know everything, but I'm saying is he but he scored a lot of goals in Champions League and assists and that, so maybe that's where his you know form is shown.
• 1:59
  SPEAKER_00: So yeah, it'll be interesting to see how he develops over the season.
• 2:01
  SPEAKER_00: So we're both going City or sorry, Arsenal.
• 2:05
  SPEAKER_00: How did I say City?
• 2:05
  SPEAKER_00: I was reading City on the screen.
• 2:07
  SPEAKER_00: So let's go.
• 2:07
  SPEAKER_00: Uh who's runners up this year?
• 2:10
  SPEAKER_01: Oh who's going to be the runners up?
• 2:15
  SPEAKER_01: Look at I will probably I think you might get somebody from the pack coming back into it.
• 2:21
  SPEAKER_01: Um but if City do a bit of business over the next couple of weeks, yeah.
• 2:27
  SPEAKER_01: Heard this even when Rodri's gone.
• 2:28
  SPEAKER_01: Barcelona signed 65 million.
• 2:32
  SPEAKER_01: There's talk of Enzo Fernandez from Chelsea coming into them.
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_01: They said Chelsea gave them an ultimatum at the weekend, but at the end of the day, money talks in this game.
• 2:41
  SPEAKER_01: Of course, yeah.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_01: And if they want him, they can have him.
• 2:43
  SPEAKER_01: I would safely say if you know a bit of in around 100 million or something.
• 2:46
  SPEAKER_00: Except for Elliot Anderson.
• 2:47
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, in fairness, I get too fairly I mean up and down in the Premier League.
• 2:52
  SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
• 2:52
  SPEAKER_00: Yes, but he's a class.
• 2:53
  SPEAKER_01: But he's a quality player at the end of the day.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_00: In a different setup, he might develop more.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_01: Once you have that man mountain machine up front scoring goals, you know, like can't be stopped.
• 3:03
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 3:04
  SPEAKER_01: It just gives you brings you in competitive in every single game you're playing.
• 3:09
  SPEAKER_01: Like even if City don't play well, he rattles in one or two goals and to get the three points.
• 3:14
  SPEAKER_01: So I would say City finish runners up.
• 3:17
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I like I just think Chelsea Wonderwell Jabby Alonso, like what he did with Leverkusen uh like when you have Pedro up front or something with big men up front, uh like strange signs he brought in Wellbeck and um Jordan Henderson Henderson.
• 3:31
  SPEAKER_00: Very unusual signings.
• 3:32
  SPEAKER_01: Did he just know I just need these older lads to I would say I I'd say he's saying that there's well he doesn't like what he sees around the club that the professionalism is not where it needs to be.
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_01: He's bringing in two top pros.
• 3:47
  SPEAKER_01: Like you look at Jordan Henderson, he probably wasn't good enough to begin the English squad for the World Cup, but he was brought anyway and sacrificed another probably player that was better than him at football, but for his leadership skills, his professionalism around the setup.
• 4:01
  SPEAKER_01: I would say that's why he's bringing him in there.
• 4:03
  SPEAKER_00: But they have no Europe as well, Chelsea.
• 4:05
  SPEAKER_00: So I think maybe, maybe but Enzo, I suppose that's going to be a big deal.
• 4:09
  SPEAKER_01: Well, they haven't they have they have too many players, and that's been Chelsea's problem over the last few seasons.
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
• 4:15
  SPEAKER_01: You don't even know who who's playing for them.
• 4:17
  SPEAKER_01: Like you hear of somebody is he's on loan from Chelsea, and you're like, I didn't even know he played for Chelsea.
• 4:22
  SPEAKER_01: And it's and it's the same, like I seen Pedro Neto is up available to Man City also for 90 or 100 million.
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_01: Like in what world, like obviously, no player should be like that in there, but in today's market, yeah, how he is up there.
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, because he hasn't consistently there's a great player there, we've seen him all the time.
• 4:41
  SPEAKER_01: But yeah, like uh you're gone city.
• 4:45
  SPEAKER_00: I I'm gonna probably I just think post-pep maybe things are crumbled for a little while more than we realise.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_00: Now, in fairness, Gahey and Semenio, like they only came in in January.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_00: So maybe them from the start, you know, Turkey, they're like there's some class all the way through.
• 4:58
  SPEAKER_00: There is, of course, and and Rodrigan is an interesting one.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_01: But bar that you have the checkbook also that if it's not going right up to Christmas time, they can open it again in January and do what they've done last season, like bring it in Semenio, bring it in Gehi last season, like they could do that again.
• 5:16
  SPEAKER_01: So just based on that alone, I would think that their financial backing might get them into second place.
• 5:21
  SPEAKER_01: Now I wouldn't ru I'm not ruling out Chelsea, don't get me wrong, and but just that's where I just think it is at the moment.
• 5:26
  SPEAKER_00: I just think that maybe the new manager bounce, and as I said, uh the no Europe.
• 5:29
  SPEAKER_00: That's why I kind of go.
• 5:29
  SPEAKER_00: Maybe they could be, you know, they're thereabouts.
• 5:31
  SPEAKER_00: Um well, but just on City, very briefly, uh I think we all hope when is the 115 charges?
• 5:38
  SPEAKER_00: Let's not dwell on it because we're all getting sick of it, but like I cannot believe it's still gone.
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_00: But anyways, we won't stay in it for now.
• 5:43
  SPEAKER_00: It'll hopefully come out in the next few weeks all going well.
• 5:45
  SPEAKER_00: So the rest of your top six, then.
• 5:47
  SPEAKER_00: So, like we all agree in it's City, is it Chelsea, uh United, although they'll have European football to deal with this year.
• 5:55
  SPEAKER_01: That's going to be a problem for them.
• 5:56
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and they have brought in Tielemans and um I forget who else, but they they have a couple of signs, but nothing maybe marquee, you know what I mean?
• 6:03
  SPEAKER_00: No, no, no huge.
• 6:04
  SPEAKER_01: No, and again, it's they've done okay last year, don't get me wrong, they've done okay, but they were playing one game a week for the whole season.
• 6:12
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and that makes sense.
• 6:13
  SPEAKER_01: You turn into you know one, two, three games a week.
• 6:18
  SPEAKER_01: Like the that squad is gonna be tested.
• 6:21
  SPEAKER_01: Do they have the metal?
• 6:22
  SPEAKER_01: Has Carrick got the the know-how?
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_01: You know, he's still a rookie manager at the end of the day.
• 6:28
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so yeah, they they they're gonna be tested.
• 6:30
  SPEAKER_01: But you're you're always gonna have the big boys there, Liverpool are gonna be there, thereabouts.
• 6:34
  SPEAKER_01: Ariola coming in there managing them, you know, what's he gonna be like?
• 6:37
  SPEAKER_01: Are they gonna be able to hit the ground running?
• 6:39
  SPEAKER_00: Well he said he said they're not fit enough for what he plays, so it'll be interesting.
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_00: Again, you go through the names, like there's you know, obviously Isak is there, uh Nikitiki's there, uh Verts on paper, it should be a class player, McAllister.
• 6:50
  SPEAKER_00: You know, there's plenty of talent there, but again, they were obviously faltering last year, and yeah, will Ariola will he suit?
• 6:56
  SPEAKER_00: Will he will he say a play?
• 6:57
  SPEAKER_00: It doesn't always work that way.
• 6:58
  SPEAKER_01: This is it.
• 6:59
  SPEAKER_00: Um Villa, where Villa Well like they're they they've had many who've they've lost they've lost Tielemans Tielemans, Rogers Rogers, and uh Martinez the keeper, yeah.
• 7:10
  SPEAKER_00: Is it Dina?
• 7:11
  SPEAKER_00: Lucas Dino, PSG.
• 7:13
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so like big shell gone out of their team, like you know what I mean?
• 7:17
  SPEAKER_01: So definitely, yeah.
• 7:18
  SPEAKER_00: But like okay, so I think we agree that okay, well, we said Arsenal should win it, but then City, Chelsea, United, Liverpool.
• 7:25
  SPEAKER_00: But which of the which of those, you think Liverpool are the shakeest of those, or uh no, United.
• 7:29
  SPEAKER_00: United, okay.
• 7:30
  SPEAKER_00: So we we'll we'll come back to the end of the season.
• 7:32
  SPEAKER_00: Uh just going just going quickly onto relegation.
• 7:35
  SPEAKER_00: Uh obviously with the new boys up, Coventry Hull and Ipswich.
• 7:38
  SPEAKER_00: Like Sunderland came last year, spent a load of money, and they managed to stay up.
• 7:42
  SPEAKER_01: The Shaka has stayed on this year, so which Chelsea were trying to get him also, again, I would say for professionalism and leadership.
• 7:50
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, well, his history wasn't that good, but he's he has been here the last year.
• 7:53
  SPEAKER_00: He really has really changed.
• 7:54
  SPEAKER_01: You know, he was a he was a huge, huge asset for Sunderland last year.
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_01: And again, it's you're talking about the new guys that have come up.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, which one's gonna do Sunderland?
• 8:02
  SPEAKER_01: I suppose I'm saying yeah, um, where are Sunderland gonna be at now?
• 8:05
  SPEAKER_01: Like it's have European football to contend with, also.
• 8:09
  SPEAKER_01: Um their squad is gonna be stretched, but they spent a lot of money last year, is what you're saying.
• 8:14
  SPEAKER_01: And the three new guys that come up this year in Ipswich, Hull, and Coventry, where are they gonna be at?
• 8:18
  SPEAKER_01: Now Ipswich have kind of copied the Sunderland market what moves that they've done previously.
• 8:24
  SPEAKER_01: They've gone to the French league and bought a few players from the French League.
• 8:28
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so and they spent a lot of money, they've spent like they're up there with one of the top spenders at the moment, like you know, for a team that's after coming up with a new manager, also McKenna's gone for them, Gary O'Neill is managing them now.
• 8:41
  SPEAKER_01: Um and CISO, who used to be at Brighton, has joined them.
• 8:45
  SPEAKER_01: So big Marquis signed, I think he was up on 30 million.
• 8:48
  SPEAKER_01: So they're gonna have to hit the ground running.
• 8:50
  SPEAKER_01: The other two guys then with Hull and Coventry.
• 8:53
  SPEAKER_01: I know that Coventry signed Auione, the Nottingham Forest striker, yesterday.
• 8:58
  SPEAKER_00: One yeah, yeah, it's always hard to get all the info.
• 9:00
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, signed him.
• 9:02
  SPEAKER_01: So and he usually plays well against Arsenal, so hopefully he's gonna be a good one.
• 9:06
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, that's Friday night.
• 9:08
  SPEAKER_01: Um but Coventry and Hull, in order to stay up, they're probably gonna need a few sign-ins over the next week or two.
• 9:17
  SPEAKER_01: Premier League proven signings, because this idea of going out and spending X amount of money on players that aren't Premier League proven and hoping that they're going to make a difference for a team that's after coming up from the championship, is you know it's a huge, huge gamble, and you know it's it's one of these things if it goes well, tap on the back, well done, fair play to you, the money is spent, and you stay where you are.
• 9:41
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, if it goes badly, you're straight back down to the championship again, and that's when it can become into a free fall situation.
• 9:46
  SPEAKER_01: You see what's happened with the likes of Leicester and these boys.
• 9:49
  SPEAKER_01: When they go down, they might never come back up.
• 9:51
  SPEAKER_01: Whereas Sunderland got the right signs in last year, ended up right up there in mid-table.
• 9:56
  SPEAKER_01: They were in the top six for an awful lot of the season.
• 10:00
  SPEAKER_01: So you just got to get your signs right in preseason.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_01: See what happens.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_00: Is there any of the is there anyone outside of them like I mean, I know everyone's saying those three teams are the favourites to go down, but is there anyone that we think you know?
• 10:10
  SPEAKER_00: Obviously, Tottenham uh have been very close the last couple of seasons.
• 10:13
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, they spent a lot of time.
• 10:13
  SPEAKER_00: Is there another Tottenham there like is Newcastle or who's gone Goomer ice for Arsenal Tanali, Anthony Gordon, and obviously their manager, yeah.
• 10:23
  SPEAKER_00: So everything is kind of upscaled.
• 10:24
  SPEAKER_00: So they they like are they they think they're too good to be anywhere near?
• 10:28
  SPEAKER_01: They probably should be too good.
• 10:29
  SPEAKER_01: Like I heard a rumour there yesterday that uh Jacob Murphy, Everton waiting in the wings also for that.
• 10:37
  SPEAKER_01: Um but they should be too good, but they said Tottenham are too good to be in the bottom four, and they spent a lot of time down there last season.
• 10:45
  SPEAKER_01: So the likes of Newcastle are them boys could if they don't start off fast, they have a new manager in complete rookie manager after getting rid of anyhow.
• 10:54
  SPEAKER_01: Um so they could find themselves down there.
• 10:57
  SPEAKER_01: Anyone else?
• 10:58
  SPEAKER_01: I you know it's Harry.
• 11:01
  SPEAKER_00: Fulham they lost Harry Wilson, Harry Wilson is a big player for them.
• 11:04
  SPEAKER_01: Hymn has gone back to Wolves, yeah.
• 11:06
  SPEAKER_00: So yeah, so it'll be an interesting battle there.
• 11:08
  SPEAKER_00: And again, as we said, like like Sam United, Bournemouth, Brighton, Sunderland, they're all in Europe this year, and then the teams that don't Chelsea, Tottenham, Newcastle, Forest, you know, so they don't have don't have Europe, so maybe.
• 11:19
  SPEAKER_01: Forrest could be one also.
• 11:21
  SPEAKER_01: I know that they're they're a good team and they've a good panel of players, but they've had so many managers over the last couple of years, like yeah, and if things don't go well for them at the start of the season, they sack the manager, they get a new guy in, then all of a sudden they're in the bottom half of the table, that doesn't work out.
• 11:36
  SPEAKER_01: They're after losing Elliott Anderson, who was a huge player for them.
• 11:39
  SPEAKER_01: Like you know, like he's like he knitted everything together.
• 11:42
  SPEAKER_01: Um, talk of a couple of other players leaving, but they could be a team that could find themselves just a little bit above the trapdoor, and if they don't get their act together, they could find themselves you know hovering there for the rest of the season.
• 11:55
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, no, no, no.
• 11:56
  SPEAKER_00: Look, I mean, every season always mouthwatering.
• 11:58
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, I'm intrigued to see there's some new rules this year as well with uh injured players, substitutes, you know, you can't use a towel anymore to dry a ball.
• 12:06
  SPEAKER_00: Very important.
• 12:07
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
• 12:07
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, but like it just it's rules, it seems to be like they're going to speed the game up a bit, which I love.
• 12:12
  SPEAKER_00: And again, obviously, we're Arsenal fans.
• 12:13
  SPEAKER_00: Wouldn't we all love to see free-flowing, you know, from uh from play goals?
• 12:18
  SPEAKER_00: So I just intrigued to see now what because you could the ref can call fouls obviously before a corner is taken now.
• 12:23
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so but as someone said today, like I was watching one of the podcasts online, and uh every team is pulling and dragging and blocking and all that.
• 12:31
  SPEAKER_00: So it'll be very intriguing to see will the focus be on Arsenal?
• 12:34
  SPEAKER_00: Because it's just this narrative that they're the ones that do it more than anyone.
• 12:37
  SPEAKER_00: I think they just score more than anyone.
• 12:38
  SPEAKER_00: Everyone else does get it.
• 12:40
  SPEAKER_01: So it'll be but uh you you look at any game or even the games in the World Cup during the summer, like the the pulling and dragging that's gone on the box.
• 12:47
  SPEAKER_01: So if you're I would say the refs initiative is going to be okay, let's stop it at the very start.
• 12:52
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, let's make uh something for the first couple of weeks and then they'll stop it three weeks.
• 12:58
  SPEAKER_01: Will it stop after that?
• 12:59
  SPEAKER_01: And or will they keep bringing it in?
• 13:01
  SPEAKER_01: It's uh you know it's hard to know what will happen now.
• 13:03
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
• 13:03
  SPEAKER_00: And like just to quickly run through the fixtures here, uh Arsenal Coventry's on Friday at eight o'clock.
• 13:08
  SPEAKER_00: Hull Man United, uh half twelve, uh Hull at home, Everton at home to Palace on Saturday afternoon at three, Ipswich v.
• 13:14
  SPEAKER_00: Sunderland at three, uh Forest v.
• 13:16
  SPEAKER_00: Leeds at three, uh, Brentford v.
• 13:18
  SPEAKER_00: Tottenham, and then on to Sunday.
• 13:19
  SPEAKER_00: You have Brighton v.
• 13:20
  SPEAKER_00: Villa at two o'clock, Man City play Bournemouth at two o'clock, and Newcastle play Liverpool at half four, and then finally Monday it's Fulham uh at home to Chelsea.
• 13:29
  SPEAKER_00: So uh plenty of uh mouth watering fixtures there, and I see actually City.
• 13:35
  SPEAKER_00: City don't play Palace till is that right?
• 13:37
  SPEAKER_00: City Oh no, sorry, City played Bournemouth on Sunday, yeah.
• 13:39
  SPEAKER_00: Sorry, I was there going on and reading this wrong.
• 13:41
  SPEAKER_00: Uh so like the first weekend, you couldn't you wouldn't be putting a lot of money on anyone.
• 13:46
  SPEAKER_00: You know, obviously you'd think Arsenal have enough at home.
• 13:48
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, well, they should have.
• 13:49
  SPEAKER_01: Look at they should have enough on Friday night at home against a team that's after coming up.
• 13:54
  SPEAKER_01: But in these games, and I say it an awful lot about the soccer matches, Coventry gonna sit in.
• 14:02
  SPEAKER_01: It's about the first goal.
• 14:03
  SPEAKER_01: If Arsenal were to score the first goal early on, so many games Astor were like the floodgates could open, but in all of them games, you look at Hull and Man United on Saturday morning, Hull score a goal earlier on their crowd up, they're just gonna sit in and soak up the pressure, and then that puts all the pressure on Man United.
• 14:19
  SPEAKER_01: Uh again, you're looking at Spurs after huge money sign-ins.
• 14:23
  SPEAKER_01: They're coming out this weekend, they're against Brentford at the weekend.
• 14:27
  SPEAKER_01: Brentford, very, very good team at home as well.
• 14:30
  SPEAKER_00: You look at well drilled.
• 14:32
  SPEAKER_00: Uh yeah, so they've Tonali, Dubravka, Mateus Fernandez, Van Heka, Senesi.
• 14:36
  SPEAKER_00: I had to look back at this, Andrew Robertson, you know what I mean?
• 14:39
  SPEAKER_00: Like unbelievable players.
• 14:40
  SPEAKER_01: Brand new team.
• 14:41
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 14:41
  SPEAKER_01: They needed a brand new team.
• 14:43
  SPEAKER_00: They needed something, they needed the mentality, and again, I know the Arsenal Spurs, right?
• 14:46
  SPEAKER_00: But I'm just saying, as a football fan watching, uh, how a team with such a stadium and such a squad.
• 14:50
  SPEAKER_00: Now, in fairness, had a lot of injuries as well, but they just seem to have lost they had lost their bottle, so it'll be interesting to see now new manager in there, you know, what's the point?
• 14:57
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and then you have uh obviously Chelsea, new manager Alonso there, whether he's getting the players on side, whether he can get his right team in the pitch.
• 15:07
  SPEAKER_01: They're playing Fulham on Monday night.
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, London Derby, yeah, Fulham hard bet at Craven Cottage.
• 15:12
  SPEAKER_01: So you know, sticky start for Lizard.
• 15:15
  SPEAKER_00: But again, look, I can't get too excited the first week.

  SPEAKER_00: No, no.

  SPEAKER_00: Again, with Newcastle losing the two new manager, two new managers in also City Bournemouth, Bournemouth have kind of held their team fairly well as well.

  SPEAKER_00: Anyone uh and let's just quickly have a quick look here.
• 15:35
  SPEAKER_01: Um they have a bad uh so one of the guys got a bad injury, they're one of their main players from last year who was Cinessi obviously has gone to Tottenham, so that's that's a big loss.

• 15:47
  SPEAKER_00: They had some amazing results, and they kept their young Kruppi Jr.

• 15:55
  SPEAKER_01: Ah, okay.
• 15:55
  SPEAKER_01: I think it's Kruppi that's not back until the new year.
