United vs Not So United I FPL GW33 Episode 84 · Draft Offsides Podcast

0:00
Hello and welcome to Episode 84 Draft Off Sides.
0:03
My name is Keith, I'm with Tico Enzo.
0:05
We are heading into game week 32.
0:09
It's getting real tight in our league to the point where I'm
0:12
surprised that we're being so cordial to each other.
0:15
It's just for the pot. It's just.
0:16
For the pot. Otherwise we'd be leaving dead
0:18
chickens in front of each other's houses.
0:20
That's me. Fucking mind games this point.
0:21
I'm going to be telling you to pick up and see so and keep him.
0:24
I mean, I, you should, I should have kept him.
0:27
I should have, I should have not dropped him.
0:29
So I don't know what, I don't know what level of the mind game
0:32
you're on, but that sounds pretty good to me, whatever
0:35
level you're at. Mm, hmm, yeah.
0:37
Sure. All right, first game.
0:39
I think this is probably the most exciting game, even though
0:40
I did not watch it. I just watched the highlights.
0:43
But it was City 5, Palace 2. Let me tell you about this game.
0:48
So we talked about me keeping the Palace keeper or versus
0:52
Anderson. So I wake up.
0:54
I obviously, you know, I woke up late.
0:56
I snoozed it. I wake up, I look at him, 20
0:58
Palace are winning. I'm like, yeah, can't wait till
1:01
I talk to Enzo and Keith, tell him, hey, idiots.
1:03
Yeah, I made the right decision. I wake up to 52 shellacking.
1:06
I open the fan chat, he's negative points.
1:08
I'm like, what the hell happened?
1:09
You're like, you're like, no, this must be wrong.
1:12
Yeah, Fresh. Well, I told you guys that I, I
1:14
I bet on this game. I bet on palace to win.
1:17
I did tiko. I did the exact same thing.
1:18
I woke up, saw salvia wasn't playing switch to map, fell back
1:21
asleep like kind of couldn't really go back to sleep right
1:24
away looked at my phone again. They were up to oh, and I then I
1:27
like that like made me like made me happy enough to fall back
1:29
asleep with a smile on my face. And then I woke up for the other
1:33
games and sure enough it was 5/2.
1:35
I watched. I watched the game.
1:37
Oh, did you? Yeah.
1:37
Yeah, I was, you know, there's nothing to do at work, so I was.
1:41
It's fucking ridiculous, man. Like when they went two nil up,
1:45
could not believe it. And they weren't bad goals and
1:47
Palace wasn't lucky. They fucking huh?
1:49
And then I think as as they scored again and they got
1:52
declared offsides, but it was like he probably could have been
1:54
a little more patient in a way if he would, yeah.
1:56
Yeah, yeah. But then as soon as KDB just
1:59
looked like KDB of old man, I'm telling you, once, once he
2:03
scored that goal, everything just changed.
2:05
Everything changed. How does O'Reilly look?
2:08
Dude, O'Reilly and Mcatee, like Mcatee got overshadowed by KDB
2:13
because KDB was going up. But Mcatee, we saw what he did
2:17
with Sheffield United last year. Like he was fucking amazing this
2:20
game, both of them. Yeah, I mean, I I think with the
2:24
double game Week 2, I think there's something there we can
2:26
talk about a little bit later on.
2:28
But just focusing on this game, KDB, 30.5 points, gold and
2:31
assists, he really just took over.
2:33
He went like he went like KDB circa 2022.
2:37
Don't you think he just? Carried the ball, putting balls
2:40
into the box like beautiful delivery.
2:42
Yeah, he was. He was on one.
2:43
He could have scored another one.
2:44
Honestly. He had a couple chances.
2:46
Yeah, and then my Moose was 21.5 and then we talked about
2:50
obviously Mcatee scored a goal at the end, they got 16.25 and
2:54
he looked good. I mean, Anderson got his fourth
2:56
assist of the season. Did you see that with that
2:57
Mcatee goal? Oh my God.
2:59
You know, he's our assistant, like a lot of players.
3:02
Dude, that, that pass was like perfect.
3:04
And when the way Mcatee took it, I thought he was going to lose
3:07
it. When the ball bounced, I was
3:08
like, he's not going to fucking get that.
3:09
I think this year Anderson has more goal contribution than
3:13
Hoyland or Zip City combined. Combined, no.
3:17
Combined, there's no way. Yeah, there's.
3:19
No way Hoyland and Xerxy have less than have less than four
3:23
goal contributions between them. I don't think, yeah, I I
3:26
believe. It didn't.
3:27
Xerxy, I believe you. No.
3:29
When did you scored in Europe? You scored in Europe, huh?
3:32
Yeah, it was in Europe. In the Premier League they are
3:35
trash. So that's not that's not right,
3:38
but it's three goals. And Xerxy has at least three
3:41
goals. There's a game where he scored
3:43
two goals. In the Premier League.
3:45
Yeah, he's, he's scored, he's scored in a state and he's
3:48
scored against Everton twice. Yeah, OK, so close enough.
3:52
So, so ridiculous that Riley 14.5 points.
3:57
He's definitely really interesting.
3:58
Then we can also talk about Richards getting 11 points
4:00
because he scored a goal, so he had one of the the goals and
4:04
then even with five goals against and Richards is all
4:07
three of those guys are very interesting for waivers moving
4:10
forward. Anything else about this game?
4:13
I know you just skipped over my movie for my moo.
4:15
She's a fucking player. I think I I think I mentioned.
4:18
I know you mentioned him below, I'm just saying like he's an
4:20
amazing player. I don't even know what his
4:22
position is. Out of the field.
4:24
What the fuck does he play? Just wherever he just gets to
4:27
run around. Fucking.
4:29
Ridiculous gets to run around and be fast.
4:34
But yeah, I mean, I mean, I, I don't, I don't really think much
4:37
less of Palace. I just got, I'm now I'm a little
4:40
nervous that city's just about ready to go beast mode and
4:43
they're just going to lock in the lock in the Champions League
4:45
spot, you know? Yeah, well, you know, I heard
4:51
something that there's a possibility that the Premiership
4:54
could have seven teams in the Champions League.
4:58
I I saw that it's like a very weird like set of circumstances
5:02
that would if they're. Man United or Tottenham win the
5:06
Europa, Yeah, and if Aston Villa doesn't go in the top five and
5:10
they win the Champions League, it's.
5:12
Ridiculous. I'm just saying it's, it's,
5:14
it's, it's, it's up there. There's a decimal percentage
5:19
chance that happens, yeah. Yeah, and that that means
5:23
there's like 10-11 Premier League teams in Europe next year
5:27
in all competitions. That should be funny.
5:29
OK, moving on to next game. Wolves 2 or sorry, oops.
5:33
Wolves 4 Spurs 2 Sunset's out with a foot injury.
5:38
No one knew until the moment of the game and that's much makes
5:41
this league in this game really tough is that you have to really
5:44
be on it for stuff like this because you just can't have you
5:47
just don't know. You have to check lineups at
5:49
Nori scored 30.25 points. You got a goal with that was
5:53
that was that in the first minute?
5:54
Yeah, it was not a first move. I was winning the first few.
5:58
Yeah. Came off his shin.
5:59
I don't know what the fuck Vicari is doing.
6:01
I think he's he's literally lost the plot.
6:03
Send him back to Ellie. He's lost it.
6:05
I was, I feel kind of negative. The second goal was that wasn't
6:09
really his fault. What the?
6:12
He like hit it and then it went off.
6:13
Spence. The on goal.
6:15
That that's his fault? How was that you?
6:17
You should. Catch that, fucking catch the
6:19
fucking ball that just. Seems like a comedy, like a
6:21
comedy of errors. And not no one's fault there.
6:23
No, no. No, it's definitely not just
6:25
Spencer's fault. It's definitely his fault.
6:27
Well, what's he going to do? It seemed like he was.
6:30
It seemed like he was trying to do his best.
6:32
He was. He was doing his.
6:33
Fault. Why are you?
6:34
Why are you even defending this? Guy, it wasn't Spencer's fault,
6:36
he should not get credit for an on goal and there should be stat
6:40
adjustment. Keith.
6:41
Is it she got she got Spence in one of his leagues?
6:45
Clearly you. Gotta be negative points against
6:47
Tom. OK, so Cunha came back and made
6:51
a triumphant return with a goal scored 19.25 points.
6:54
That's a substitute, you son of a bitch.
6:57
And you started him. Me, I mean, yeah, I had no
7:00
choice, but I knew he was going to.
7:02
I knew he was going to come on like the last 20 minutes and
7:04
against Tottenham and. Tikko, you're a wanker.
7:08
OK, what about? What about?
7:09
What about Rick Charleston's going?
7:12
Oh my. God.
7:14
No, he's. Like the full bounce, like
7:17
honestly both the Tottenham goals was what's that where
7:21
you're in the right, right place, right time.
7:22
Yeah, this opportunity. It literally bounced off till
7:25
Shin went in and the ball wobble to him at head height on the
7:29
goal line. You can't miss it and we still
7:32
lost 4/2. Was this Kuluski's first game
7:34
back? Yes.
7:36
He shoved, he stepped in. Yeah.
7:38
Yeah. Belgard got injured, which is no
7:41
bueno. Yeah.
7:42
But I also think that opens up Sarabia to potentially be viable
7:46
because he's he's had good moments throughout the year.
7:48
You got to give some credits at the Wolves coach.
7:50
Since he's come in, they've looked pretty decent.
7:52
Yeah. They've been defensively a lot
7:54
better. Yeah, yeah.
7:56
Did you guys see after the match he went to the pub and everyone
7:58
was like buying him drinks, all the fans.
8:00
Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah, that's pretty cool.
8:03
Yeah, fuck him. I would absolutely do that if I
8:05
was a coach, and that's probably why I can't be a coach because I
8:08
would immediately just get to start drinking with everyone.
8:12
Oh. My God.
8:14
All right, next game, Chelsea 2, Ipswich 2.
8:17
So this was interesting because Ben Johnson scored 32.75 points,
8:21
which I believe was the highest of the week.
8:23
Yeah, no. Second highest.
8:26
Second highest Pedro, 35 points. Oh, job Pedro.
8:30
Yeah, but anyways, a total no name guy kinda that Yeah, just
8:36
like he sweat. Got a golden assist against
8:39
Chelsea and yeah, it was great. It's great, great.
8:41
And Siso 26.25 points. The week that I dropped him, he
8:45
decided to show up in a major way.
8:47
You love to see it. Yeah, good job, Keith.
8:50
Pedro Neto 23.5 points, which is do you know like this game?
8:56
It's generally guys who have good games like in the stats
8:59
reflect or whatever and like Pedro had a pretty good game,
9:01
but like 23.5 points for the amount of like shots.
9:04
I feel like he like missed, you know, which is like very
9:07
frustrating. Yeah.
9:09
You know. But he's still got 23.5 points
9:12
from, I don't think he got an assist or a goal in that game
9:14
so. Didn't, but I mean what?
9:17
Maderick had an assist, he got a goal.
9:18
I mean, he's sorry he had an assist.
9:20
It's good for him. Cole Palmer I think had 15
9:22
points, Jayden Sancho had like 22.
9:25
So I didn't watch the game but all I saw was I switched up two
9:28
nil. So that was worrying for you.
9:29
I know that was at least you were able to rally bad to get 2.
9:32
Yeah, Chelsea actually looked better.
9:34
Like they looked they were dominant.
9:36
They just got hit on that counter and it was a little bit
9:38
of lazy defending and it happened again and just kind of
9:41
one of those things. I mean as if switched Chelsea
9:42
should look better. Yeah, of course, but I mean, I
9:45
meant that they were totally done.
9:47
They were in control, dominating and just like, yeah, like lost
9:50
the plot for like a split second.
9:51
You know, it wasn't like this back and forth game or but yeah,
9:55
but then and then Chelsea had some really good opportunities
9:57
to win the game even after. And Palmer, who's the name of
10:01
the Ipswich keeper, saved a really good shot from Palmer
10:05
from Chelsea. From the left hand side.
10:07
Right. Yeah.
10:08
And then also Enzo had a really good shot at the end too that
10:10
Palmer saved. Yeah, well, I just got, I just
10:13
had to get over the ball, you know what I mean?
10:16
Yeah, it was just one of those games.
10:18
I think that I think the highlights of the fact that
10:19
Meadowek is back. Yeah, yeah.
10:22
He's he's just so direct. And yeah, I mean, he's, he's
10:24
kind of like a fantasy points guy.
10:26
Like he does things that maybe aren't the smartest thing for,
10:29
for like the team. But like, as a fantasy owner,
10:31
you're like, yes, like shoot from that impossible angle
10:35
again, like more, more, more shots from a 30° angle, more of
10:40
them. Get it on target?
10:42
Yeah, 'cause he gets on target too.
10:44
Sure he does, but. Do you guys get upset when like
10:46
a defender blocks, gets in the way of a shot that's going on
10:49
target and you have the player? Yeah, of course.
10:51
Like. Keep her head and let it go.
10:54
Yeah, I sometimes have to like Trick.
10:56
I have to be like, OK, remind myself that I'm here to enjoy
10:59
the game and not solely for my fantasy team.
11:02
God. But other than that, there
11:04
wasn't much here. The lap had a like an injury, so
11:07
he didn't start the game. He came on the last 10 minutes.
11:08
So doesn't sound like it's that big a deal if he's already back.
11:11
Yeah, I don't think Ben Johnson's like viable move
11:14
forward, I think. Sorry, guys.
11:19
I think other than that, there's not much to talk about here.
11:23
I think like Neto and and Sancho, it's like the same
11:26
thing. They're just get, they're really
11:26
frustrating, right? Yeah.
11:29
So I don't know. I don't know.
11:31
I don't know what you do here. I think in Ciso's, the only
11:33
thing that's maybe a question mark, do you pick him back up
11:35
again and then get really disappointed when he gets five
11:36
points next week? No, you should pick him up
11:38
again, Keith. I'm thinking about it.
11:42
OK next game. Liverpool to West Ham one
11:45
another. Another master class from Luis
11:47
Diaz do. You know, how many points, how
11:51
many, how many games did he play for you?
11:52
Keith 3. 3. Three games.
11:55
He's got nearly 75 points in three games, I think, and you
11:59
want to wait, wait, wait, wait. I'm not finished yet.
12:01
Do you know how many points Odegaud has in the last three
12:04
games? Well, I started, she hasn't
12:05
started two of them, so. Well, I was going to say, in one
12:08
of the games, any of the three Luis Diaz games, he has more
12:11
points than Odegaard and Cuco and whoever the fuck come by.
12:16
You don't even have to do Luis Diaz.
12:18
You could do Morgan Rogers. Yeah, I'll see.
12:22
That was going to be my next step.
12:23
But you, I'll leave that to you. You're the guy on the chair.
12:25
You know, it's yeah. Do we want do we want to talk
12:29
about the trade more or I feel like everyone?
12:30
No, we don't need to talk about the fact that you've just scored
12:33
an own goal. You pretty much just yeah.
12:35
You basically shot yourself in the foot.
12:37
So The thing is, if I had both of those players, I would have
12:40
won all three matchups and the league would have been over by
12:42
now. So yeah, you're welcome,
12:44
bitches. You welcome teacher bitch, so
12:48
you keep it you. Kept.
12:48
It interesting by mistake. You unintentionally kept it very
12:52
interesting with. The terrible personally.
12:55
Yeah, unintentionally. And the puppet.
12:57
Masters you puppet master. Yeah.
13:00
You fools. OK, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
13:03
yeah, yeah. Virgil Van Dyke, 18 points.
13:06
He probably should have got negative points for that whole
13:08
like kerfuffle that led to the West End world though.
13:10
Like did you see Robinson like straight up blame VVD for that
13:13
shit and that's why you're getting traded?
13:16
I, I feel like, I mean, I don't know whose father was, but I, I,
13:18
I, I feel you should never point fingers.
13:20
But B, yeah, that's just not good.
13:23
That's what I'm saying. He should have been pointing
13:24
fingers. One VBD was already there.
13:26
Robertson didn't even get to the ball, so really it's Robinson's
13:30
fault. Fucking bastard.
13:32
It's kind of taught them. But he scored a goal at the end
13:35
to win it, so that's why he has a lot of points.
13:38
And then, yeah. And then Connor Bradley, 13.25
13:41
points, 59% owned. Probably should have swooped him
13:45
a long time ago. Yeah, he's gone.
13:46
But. Not really.
13:48
Have you seen? His right?
13:50
Connor Bradley, he hasn't. I mean, this, this, this game,
13:54
he had a good one, but the last like couple of games he hasn't.
13:56
I feel like this year hasn't been too consistent.
13:59
Well, yeah, it is. It's.
14:00
I don't. Think he's not clocked?
14:01
It's not. It was, yeah, he's hasn't been
14:03
healthy. Well, when he has played he
14:05
hasn't because remember when he came in for Trent, when Trent
14:06
was injured last year, he went off that.
14:08
Was last year though. That was last.
14:10
Year with OK, so the last two games.
14:12
Playing in the same way. So the last two games he's at
14:15
13.25 and 13.5. Before that he hadn't played
14:18
since February, so I think you should sweep on them now.
14:23
If he's available, I mean, I'm sure he's in a lot of leagues
14:26
and 50. 9%, probably, yeah. Yeah, yeah, West Ham is there.
14:30
I mean, do you know you guys are that West Ham since 17th right
14:32
now? But I mean, it's crazy.
14:34
Like I when I think of West Ham, I don't think of them as like
14:36
the 17 A. Couple of years ago, two years
14:38
ago, they were like a solid team.
14:40
But David Moyes, Yeah, yeah. Yeah, last year they were a
14:42
decent team too last. Year you.
14:44
Talk about I'm just saying like, look, they're safe.
14:48
We already know who's. Going down like mathematically
14:50
isn't safe yet, but just give it a couple of games and they'll be
14:53
mathematically. Safe but think about it like
14:56
earlier in the year we thought wolves were in the danger zone
14:58
of going down as well now wolves are ahead of West Ham because
15:01
they haven't lost in the last five for.
15:03
Match 23 because of the new coach has been saying yeah.
15:05
Yeah. Most solid gold contribution for
15:09
most. Solid gold contribution.
15:10
Beautiful pass. Was it 11?
15:12
Points or something. It wasn't that.
15:13
Many, it wasn't that many points, it was 12 something, but
15:15
yeah. I mean for his standards, no, it
15:17
was 12 1/2. Yeah.
15:19
It's still good though, yeah. OK, so West Ham, it's I, I'll
15:24
just take our league, for example, I it's amazing how few
15:26
players are owned for West Ham. But why?
15:30
There's only six players owned on the entire team.
15:34
That seems loud, doesn't it? But then when you think about
15:36
it, they are in 17th place. But it's Bowen Bisaka or Anwan
15:41
Bisaka, Max Killman, Thomas Suchak, Kudus and then Piqueta.
15:44
And even Piqueta is like but really no.
15:48
Even if you look at those players yes, so Bowen's
15:51
averaging 12.16 for the year. That's obviously very solid.
15:55
And then one Bisaka is at 9.2, everyone else is less than 9
15:58
like Max Kilman could be dropped like it that definitely could be
16:01
dropped. So it's.
16:03
Kudos. Talk about disappointing years,
16:05
Mohammed. Kudos, huh?
16:06
Yeah. What?
16:07
What is it? What What happened between last
16:09
year and this year? Just it's the whole year.
16:13
I don't know but how What I'm interested is how many triple
16:16
completions does he have this year compared to last?
16:18
Year I was, that's exactly what I was going to look at too,
16:21
because that's the that was, remember that was the thing that
16:23
really separated him last year is the amount he was just
16:25
getting my people and he's just not.
16:28
And he has missed a few games this year though too.
16:30
Last year I don't think he missed.
16:31
He came, came in January. Did he come in January?
16:33
No, he was No. Summer signing.
16:36
He's played 26 games and started all 26.
16:38
Last year he was 33 games played, 27 started.
16:42
But the biggest thing is last year at eight goals and six
16:44
assists. This year, he's all sitting at
16:45
3:00 and 2:00. Yeah.
16:47
And then I think that I guarantee you there's way less
16:49
tribbles. Yeah, he's playing and he's
16:52
playing averaging more minutes to the average, playing like 10
16:54
minutes extra. That's over the course of the
16:56
year. That's a lot of minutes, you
16:58
know, Don't. Know what happened to him and
17:00
honestly, Potter is it Potter. So we'll see what Potter does.
17:07
I mean his. Dribble numbers are still pretty
17:09
outrageous, actually. Yeah, looking at him, I mean, I
17:12
mean, at the beginning of the year was way stronger.
17:14
He was getting like 5-6, three. Now it's in the like successful
17:19
dribbles. He's getting like averaging like
17:20
probably like 2-2 to 3A game. I traded him at the right time.
17:24
You're welcome. So I'll go.
17:25
You, Dad. All right.
17:27
Next game, Newcastle 4, Manchester United won.
17:32
Honana benched and there was still a disaster class from the
17:36
keeper, so something changes. Disaster.
17:40
Don't know where they got that keeper from, no idea they even
17:43
know he was on this team, but he cannot use his fucking feet to
17:47
save his life and panics. At what point are we just going
17:52
to acknowledge that it's something deeper than any
17:54
individual? What you mean we have
17:56
acknowledged that? We've said it's it's a club.
17:58
At what point? And not us, but at what point is
18:00
everyone else? Like, I feel like everyone just
18:02
gets so pissed at like, individual players, you know,
18:03
you know, Clear, there's something else going on here.
18:05
Well, you get pissed because honestly I think the best spell
18:09
they had on, I think we've mentioned it was when they had
18:10
Venice Roy and they actually played, they played football.
18:14
Now it's because they've gone to this new Amarum style and again
18:17
we can make excuses for him. Doesn't have the players or the
18:20
only player he's boy is Dogu. Like give him a summer, but if
18:25
he doesn't do it he's going to get sacked.
18:27
But to me, the biggest question would be next year is where does
18:30
Ahmad play? Because clearly he was the best
18:32
player outside of Bruno Fernandez in this system.
18:35
That's going to be an interesting one.
18:36
I agree. I don't think I'm go on.
18:41
And I was gonna say, Emmanuel, if he comes back, those two
18:44
players are going to be. I guess the thing for me though,
18:47
too, is like we're we talk about this team and like prior to that
18:51
loss to four, it's like prior to that loss to Forest, like they
18:54
they hadn't lost in like 7 games and they lose to Forest 10,
18:57
which is, you know, no shame this season, right?
19:00
But they didn't won games. Are they?
19:01
No, they'd won some games. They draw City, they draw Lyon,
19:03
then they lose some Newcastle. But like in general, there's
19:06
been a little bit of an uptick, but like it's not enough I
19:09
guess, right. It's ultimately, but like you
19:11
can argue there's been like some signs of progress I guess.
19:14
But so let's go back since December 1 first, when they beat
19:22
every 1040. Since then, the most goals they
19:25
scored is 3 against Todd Hampton, against Lester and
19:29
against Ipswich. Just the relegation teams.
19:33
So their biggest problem is they've been trying to address
19:35
for the last couple of years is they don't have a striker, they
19:37
have no one that could put the ball in the net.
19:40
Keep buying guys, I just can't do it.
19:41
I think we also need to tip our hats in Newcastle because they
19:45
were so good and that midfield is so good.
19:48
That Tanali goal is amazing. Zach giving you said that much
19:52
space on the edge of the box is crazy.
19:54
Like when the law is not getting there quicker was wild.
19:57
Harvey Barnes just continues to just just cook 27.75 points.
20:03
You gotta go with the hot hand. I don't think they're gonna drop
20:04
him, Perfumus. I, I think I wouldn't be shocked
20:09
if if he or him and Murphy starts, but I also wouldn't be
20:13
shocked if you would see Gordon come in like 1/2 time or
20:15
something. So I think that Murphy, I think
20:17
Murphy and Barnes have both been playing a lot.
20:19
And then with Gordon being rested for the last few games
20:21
and because of that injury and now he's coming back, like I
20:23
think that Gordon got some time. I just don't know.
20:26
I don't know what capacity. I wouldn't be shocked if maybe
20:27
Murphy gets harassed. Like Murphy's played every
20:29
single game for how long now? Don't you fucking wish that on
20:32
me, Ricky Bobby, I'm Don't you fucking wish that on me.
20:35
Yes, tough love. Wake up, idiot.
20:37
You're. Hanging out into the universe.
20:39
They should arrest E Sock and play Gordon and then if they're
20:41
behind put in a E Sock. That's yeah, we all, we all have
20:44
different things that we need to happen in this game.
20:47
So we're all just trying to like put that out there as long.
20:49
As as long as Bruno gets a goal and assist, I'll be fun.
20:52
If Bruno gave a rush, getting a goal is not that likely.
20:54
That was only as what, second goal?
20:56
Yeah, he's happy to get it when I needed him.
20:58
Not to against you, but. And is it?
21:00
Did it happen against you before too?
21:02
Yeah. You're off just against
21:04
Newcastle. Newcastle has been my.
21:06
Bogey team. My personal bogey team, yeah.
21:09
To me, if East Side doesn't play, it's a double positive
21:13
because I also have the Crystal Palace goalkeeper Dean
21:15
Henderson. Yeah, yeah.
21:16
So there's a lot of, you have a lot of riding on this, this.
21:19
Match A00 tie. I know what's on that voice
21:22
drinks on me. Dan Burns somehow man, you got
21:25
like 1817 eighteen points you. See.
21:26
No, no, look, look how many fucking.
21:29
Headers 19, Headers 1. That's how we got it.
21:32
I was like, even Jump. Or he just landed on walking
21:36
around the ball hits. I'm not.
21:37
Going to lie, that's something when I'm watching games and I
21:38
got a defender, I'm like fucking headed that shit out, clear that
21:41
shit out, headed that shit out, clear that shit out.
21:43
Stupid. Oh, don't control him, just
21:45
clear. It just get rid of it, don't
21:47
pass it out. OK, Newcastle.
21:52
Look, I think Newcastle is gonna end up in 3rd place.
21:54
They look so good I think. They're gonna be in 3rd place
21:57
scene. Don't be wrong, they were really
21:59
hot before, but then when they won the Carroll Cup, I'm not
22:01
gonna. When I won the Carroll Cup was
22:03
maybe they're. Gonna pull a little bit, yeah,
22:05
yeah. But they have just kept on
22:07
going. They've got a really good team,
22:10
man, and they. They just seem so energized,
22:12
Like they're so energized. They're like all everyone's
22:14
healthy, you know, for the most part.
22:15
Obviously Gordon was injured, but like Gordon got injured and
22:18
Harvey Barnes just picked up like, you know, like there's
22:20
some depth there. And yeah.
22:22
They also have an owner that has deep pockets so if they want to.
22:26
Spend pockets. Yeah, if they want to spend,
22:28
they could spend and go after some big boys.
22:30
I think it's all about PSR, right?
22:31
I mean, I think for a lot of these teams now, for most of
22:33
these teams, it's all it's, it's like they'd spend more money if
22:35
they could, you know? Even even the teams are in the
22:39
relegation zone. They would have spent more money
22:41
if they could, Yeah, Now look at Leicester.
22:43
Leicester was how to sell their best player.
22:45
So I don't think I don't have the PSR rules.
22:48
I'm not going to lie to. You.
22:49
No one does. I think they're just broken a
22:51
little bit, yeah. It helps the bigger clubs more
22:55
than it helps the smaller clubs. Yes, I think, I think that
22:59
unfortunately that's the case. And it's like the whole idea was
23:02
that it wouldn't do that, but Yep, oops, oops.
23:07
Anyone else on Newcastle we want to talk about?
23:09
I mean, the whole team had a solid outing.
23:11
Obviously that one goal for United kind of killed the clean
23:13
sheet points for the liver mementos and the stuff like.
23:16
That. Goat Nacho.
23:20
You think he'll be a United player next year?
23:22
I don't think so. Nope, Nope.
23:24
He doesn't even look happy even when he I think that's.
23:26
His face. All right.
23:29
He looks like he's had like work done, like he looks like he's
23:31
like a 19 year old that's had like classroom surgery.
23:33
Which is weird, it looks like a fucking douche.
23:37
That team is full of punchable people man honestly.
23:40
That's your team, man. Don't forget we forgot that
23:43
you're a man and I fan. Punch it 1 by 1.
23:46
Are you going to be a man and I fan after this season still?
23:50
Oh. Thinking about it forever, no,
23:53
to be honest I was debating between Fulham and.
23:57
I would have loved you to have been a Fuller fan that.
23:59
Was great. London or for?
24:01
All the London teams. Yeah.
24:02
And I also been to a match there, that's what.
24:04
You're saying I've and you always spoke hardly of them, but
24:06
you chose the devil. The Red Devils.
24:10
OK, next game, Aston Villa 3 S Hampton 0 Aaron Ramsdale still
24:16
have two penalties this game, which is kind of amazing.
24:18
How often is that does that happen?
24:21
Fucking 2 bad penalties man, by the same fucking place.
24:24
The exact same spot too. Yeah, the exact same spot.
24:27
They were fucking trying to change it.
24:28
What an idiot. Yeah, 26.5 points and a three
24:31
nil loss. That was pretty good.
24:32
Fucking nuts. Yeah, the penalty, I mean you
24:34
get like what, how many points you get plus 4 + 6?
24:36
Four, yeah, I think +4. However, this this game, like
24:41
Ramzo hasn't scored points like this like most of the season.
24:45
So you don't want him? It's just not.
24:47
Yeah, but. Yeah, no, I think he had a good
24:50
run where he had like a few games in a row when he, yeah,
24:53
he's at like 19 points, 14/15/17.
24:56
Are you are you skimming through a bunch of different games or
24:59
you going in a row? No back and forth.
25:03
Yeah, he's skimming. Yeah, that's what I thought.
25:06
OK. I.
25:07
Mean I had him. At one point, don't admit it
25:12
guys, you did well. You're a Tieleman. 17.75 points.
25:15
He sneakily has had like a phenomenal season.
25:18
Yep. Yeah.
25:19
Like for fantasy, for everything, he's the he's the
25:21
standard midfielder overall, 29th ranked midfielder, 26th
25:25
ranked player overall, which is very good.
25:27
That's why the special one on our league has climbed up from
25:30
bottom all the way to mid table. So in our other league, last
25:34
year's three-game that the draft for, I mean he drafted to
25:36
laments, he was just the year too early.
25:40
You're, you know, they laying a dollar short that mean shit.
25:44
That's. All right.
25:45
I don't know if he was drafted in our league.
25:48
Yeah, we talked about Ascencio missing the two penalties.
25:50
Still, at 9.5 points, it's amazing that Ollie Watkins drew
25:55
that penalty and Ascencio waved him off.
25:56
And I know he was so pissed. He was very unhappy and then
25:59
someone like came and gave him a knot like a tap on the shoulder
26:02
and was like, it's okay, man. To Ollie Watkins, that was
26:05
pretty crazy. Yeah, but if you're a sensor,
26:08
you know, you're like a bench player is not going to take a
26:09
penalty over you. Damn man.
26:11
Man, that's rough. How rough is that that Watkins
26:14
is now? He is though.
26:15
He's been a bench player for like the last 7.
26:17
Games have turned on all. The But I was so happy for him
26:20
when he scored that goal. Oh yeah.
26:22
Not only because they did keep my parlay alive, but you could
26:25
just see like the passion. He went there and he was happy.
26:27
Awesome, I'm curious to see. I wouldn't be that shocked if he
26:31
starts in the Champions League as I just think that against a
26:38
team I think they're going to sit a little bit that I think
26:40
they're going to sit back a little bit.
26:41
I think Watkins is going to be better against that than
26:43
Rashford, who's going to be a little more of a transitional
26:45
player. You don't think they still play
26:47
Rashford with Watkins and place Ascencio on the right?
26:50
That's the thing, like Rashford prefers off the left, he could
26:53
play all of them at the same time.
26:54
Baby, you're right. So what like the like the
26:56
dreamiest lineup would be like Watkins with Morgan Rogers
26:59
behind him? Ascencio in the right, Ashford,
27:04
Russian left because they're going to have to because that
27:07
last goal in the in the Champions League really harm
27:09
talking about Champions League. Rice, Rice baby.
27:17
Rice, rice baby. I'm surprised you're not wearing
27:21
your room with jersey. Why you're not wearing your room
27:22
with jersey? I think I know why.
27:23
I guess he only likes tease when they're winning.
27:26
No. How do you want to do reruns
27:30
already? Oh, OK, didn't.
27:31
Want to talk about it? I mean.
27:33
Yes. No, we lost him.
27:36
We lost him cuz. You guys see me now?
27:38
Yeah. On my back, yeah.
27:39
Yeah, I have my Hogwarts scarf cuz we need some magic.
27:42
I have my ball and I have the Madrid scarf.
27:46
I love that you like, change that.
27:48
Like it's like very like you are casting spells with the scarves
27:51
you lie on. Really.
27:52
Are you like doing magic? Like.
27:55
Honestly, like I don't know if you guys did relate or not, but
27:58
going to this match, I'm not like, it's not like a lost cause
28:01
for me. It's not like, oh, there's no
28:02
movie. Because it's Real Madrid, man.
28:04
At the Burnabale, yeah. But I saw something today, like
28:06
in the last 70 something games, no team has scored more than two
28:11
goals against Arsenal. Can can you ask me this?
28:14
I know we weren't. We're a Premier League freaking
28:16
podcast. Can you can you tell me what the
28:18
fuck was Zimbabwe doing the last game?
28:20
Oh my God, that tackle is terrifying.
28:23
Yeah, terrifying tackle. What is unlike him?
28:27
Yeah, I think it's, I think it's pressure's gotten doing a little
28:30
bit. He's been trying to crack.
28:32
And Boppa started playing great when Vinnie went down, which
28:36
makes sense because they played the same position.
28:39
Rodrigo also had his best run when Vinnie was down.
28:42
The whole issue is that all three of them are in the same
28:44
position and they have similar style.
28:47
They either don't pass or they're way too passive.
28:50
This is why I think Angelo D needs Angelo D needs to go Don
28:55
Ancholo D. What does he need to go?
28:58
What does he need to go when you really need to get rid of a
29:00
player who's playing because you've got too many to play on
29:02
the same freaking position? Because tactically he doesn't
29:05
really make adjustments or a game plan.
29:07
It's more of like, hey, we're fucking Real Madrid.
29:10
This is the player you guys go out and play, which is amazing
29:12
when you know all the pieces are complimentary like the previous
29:16
years. But this year, when they're not,
29:18
I feel like, hey, hey. Hey Konza, back to Villa
29:25
Southampton. I didn't even.
29:26
Start this you guys bring it up and attack me.
29:28
What? The hell there isn't.
29:31
I don't even people don't know. It's because Duck and Rice had
29:34
two amazing free kicks that are just out of control.
29:36
But yeah, but moving on, Consa 13.75 point, 25% owned.
29:40
You know, I looked at him, I looked at him and I was thinking
29:43
about him for waivers. And then I looked at the rest of
29:46
season's schedule for Villa and it is rough.
29:48
They have the hardest, they have the hardest rest of season for
29:51
all the teams that are in the top, top few left.
29:54
Are you looking at Renault Tico? Yeah, so Newcastle, Man City,
30:00
Fulham, Bournemouth, Tottenham United.
30:02
Well, the last two games are easy.
30:04
Yeah, but I mean to even get to that point though, I think the
30:08
next three are just like it's a gauntlet.
30:09
So that's why concept didn't make waivers.
30:11
But yes, it is noteworthy that he's doing well.
30:14
And then Daniel Mullen scored a net, but so it's 12.75 points, 3
30:19
double joints in a row, 22% owned.
30:21
He's he doesn't. He's not starting though, so
30:23
it's kind. Of tough, but it's like the six
30:24
man rule. He's doing it.
30:28
Yeah, but it takes one him not doing it and then you're just,
30:31
it's not worth it. I think I'd always go with the
30:34
guy getting minutes, unless it's like Ascencio or something, I
30:37
guess. I don't know.
30:38
I don't even know. Yeah, I hear ya.
30:40
Cunya. Cunya, Luis Diaz.
30:44
Rogers Diaz. You're such a loser, man.
30:48
You're just you're, you're enjoying this league this far as
30:51
just me losing. That's it.
30:53
It's, it's the little things in life that I get, you know, true
30:56
happiness from. Cash, 10 points, 28% owned, 2
30:59
double digit games in a row. He's like he's been decent.
31:02
He's had some good moments. Yeah, I think with him, it's
31:05
just the rotation things a little bit there because it
31:06
seems like all the Villa players are a little susceptible to
31:09
that. And yeah, he just doesn't.
31:11
He's not consistent, not consistently doing it.
31:15
But like you said, it's it's form and matchups and I didn't
31:18
know the matchups. I don't think he's going to do
31:19
well again, so I was. Thinking yeah, I just the next
31:21
three games, I think Villa defenders are not like the most
31:24
exciting prospect. I think like Ding, yeah, you may
31:26
be up to start just because you have them Like I don't have the
31:29
alternatives but but yeah, other than that like I was looking
31:33
like Tyrell Mings has had a few good games in a row too.
31:36
Haven't heard we haven't talked about him and since he like.
31:38
Broke his leg. Broke his leg, yeah.
31:41
So yeah, Villa just a little bit of a tricky 1 I think.
31:44
I think my new strategy is to pick up whoever is playing
31:47
Southampton. I'm just going to put 25 FAB on
31:51
every single one. How much fab do you have left
31:53
on? This this guy's going to run out
31:54
of fab in like 3 days. He's.
31:57
Spending it like he's freaking. I did you did you?
31:59
I told you when you when you mentioned that you were tiki.
32:01
You know me so well. I was like, oh, I got fab.
32:06
This is hilarious because honestly, I say with all the
32:09
respect, this is dumbest shit that you could you could
32:11
possibly do. I looked at four wave wire
32:14
pickups. I don't know if you guys saw
32:15
this or not. I wanted to do a screenshot, but
32:17
I was like, so I picked one. Who was it?
32:21
America? Sergei picked one up using zero
32:23
FAB and then this is ordered. It's zero FAB 25351 FAB.
32:29
Like. No one could afford more than 10
32:30
fab. You don't need to put 25 in 30.
32:32
No, no, no freaking Derek has 58 fab.
32:36
You think Derek's going to use his FAB?
32:37
I don't think so now. Derek's in dead last place.
32:40
He is. He's checked out as you can.
32:42
Be I know fucking do you see his match up?
32:44
Oh my God, just gave up. I so right now I have fab.
32:49
I have two fab left. Whoa.
32:52
He has no FAB left. Sergei has no fab left.
32:54
Enzo has like 50 fab left. Transit is definitely in the
32:59
driver's seat from a fab from like a waiver perspective.
33:01
Yeah, now I can. All I have to do is put 5 FAB on
33:04
everything I want. I'm going to get it.
33:05
Pretty much you can put two fab on anything you want.
33:07
You're going to get it. But yeah, 5's probably safe.
33:09
The, you know, make it 15. But anyways, the, the thing that
33:13
was interesting to me is that you spend a bunch of fab on
33:15
Sassenong and then you, you carried it out.
33:17
You didn't start him there. But it was the right choice.
33:19
It was the right choice, but I I just can't imagine that the
33:22
logic was correct. Like what was your thought for
33:23
us to say? Because look, things that
33:26
happened where son, I, I, I had to overthink it and I
33:30
overthinked it. But when I overthink it works
33:33
out. But you know what, The funny
33:34
thing is that when he got subbed off, he was actually not meant
33:37
to get subbed off. And there was a miscommunication
33:39
because he walked off the field because they there was
33:42
something, but they didn't want to sub him off.
33:43
And that's why there was like a whole like like 3 minute delay
33:46
because they're trying to be like, no, we don't want him
33:47
subbed off. We want this other guy subbed
33:49
off and so you actually are kind of lucky that they fucked up.
33:51
There is a clerical error that made that be the right choice.
33:54
No, it wasn't on the right choice.
33:55
He had 4 1/2 points. You played someone who had two
33:57
points. From the Fulham players.
34:00
Yeah, it was between Muniz and Seth Young.
34:02
I mean, it's also a one point difference.
34:04
But yeah, I mean, just some note noteworthy players, Kappa 22.5
34:08
points today with that clean sheet.
34:09
Man, talk about a game. That game today.
34:12
That's I. I couldn't have read that script
34:14
better than the game. Son of a bitch.
34:16
When I when I scoring in the 55th, 50, 5 seconds.
34:20
Nothing else happening after that for the whole game.
34:23
Yeah, here's me hoping no one from work watch watches this.
34:26
I was on a call. I was on a call about the
34:29
decommission my store, and I had it on my tab on the big screen
34:32
on my fucking, you know you have the screen.
34:34
So I had to connect it to my phone.
34:35
When I saw that. I'm pretty sure everyone saw my
34:38
face go. Very funny Alpejo, 35 points get
34:41
a brace with two penalties. Yep, he's he scores quite a few
34:45
penalties. Where is he standing in the
34:47
rankings? Not great because it's Brighton
34:50
and they do so much rotation. So I'm going to look right now,
34:52
but it's not going to be as good as he is.
34:54
I bet you his his like average is pretty high though.
34:56
Yeah, it's 50 or 10.51 points per game.
35:00
That's good, but his ranking is. He's 28th on average.
35:04
Oh. Wait, nevermind, I'm actually
35:06
looking at the wrong Pedro. Yeah, fantasy points per game,
35:09
10.6720 eighth and then what? His overall, he's 13th overall,
35:16
45th, Is that what you see? 45th overall, yeah.
35:19
Not bad. Especially considering he's not
35:21
starting every game. Nope.
35:23
Yeah, not bad. Yeah, Would he pick him up?
35:27
In the fifth round. Yeah, fifth round.
35:30
Fifth round, I think, yeah, that's a no brainer.
35:32
Sounds better. Yeah, OK.
35:34
Just making sure. I think he's gonna probably, I
35:36
think he's kind of, I don't know.
35:37
I can see him playing even more next year too.
35:40
We'll. See.
35:43
Simon Odinga had 21 points, looked pretty solid.
35:46
I, I, I mean, I've always liked Dinga and, and that it's just
35:49
the Brighton team. It's just.
35:51
So much rotation. Yeah, totally.
35:57
So much rotation. Here's your guy Key.
35:59
This is the guy you should pick up.
36:02
Alcodus. Yeah, you should pick him up.
36:04
He scored 17.5 points. He had a nice game.
36:07
The first two goals Lester have scored in quite a while this
36:10
game, I think the. Last time since January.
36:12
Since they played Tottenham when El Canoo scored for against
36:15
them. Weren't you wanker?
36:16
Yeah. I think that's correct, yeah.
36:19
I think El Canoo is maybe a stretch too far a dingra I'm
36:22
someone interested in. OK, 5 Feb.
36:25
OK, so moving on, let's talk waivers a little bit.
36:29
So it is a double game week again.
36:31
So we have to battle that. And these are like, these are
36:34
just, it's so brutal that these double gamings are happening so
36:36
close to the end of this season when it's such crunch time.
36:39
What are the What are the teams that have the 2?
36:41
Games 4 There's four of them. It's Arsenal City, Mid City.
36:51
And there's one more Is it Villa?
36:55
Villa. Is it Villa?
36:58
Yeah, and Villa. OK.
37:01
So Palace, Arsenal, City, Villa, so I think essentially waivers
37:06
this week, you just got to try and get people that are double
37:09
gate week guys. Like that's really what it comes
37:11
down to. There's some other names on
37:13
here, but they're just not it's just nothing's and it's just
37:17
it's just kind of I mean, I guess you could there's some
37:19
other ones if you want, if you really wanted to, but I think
37:21
that's the only way you're going to get an edge.
37:22
And I think the the best one as as much as as much as I think
37:27
Kiyor is going to be the one that everyone's going to go for.
37:29
I think that's probably the number one.
37:31
But I think immediately behind it, if not even slightly ahead
37:34
of it, is Chris Richards. Has to be.
37:36
Crystal Palace. I mean, I just don't understand
37:38
how he's still in the 44% owned. His numbers have been so good
37:41
since the start of the year. Well, you've read it.
37:43
You've read out his. Yeah, it's like every week it's
37:46
just it's yeah, he needs, he needs to get picked up.
37:48
He's just too good. And then Nico O'Reilly, I think,
37:52
is another name that I have on here.
37:54
I think, you know, that it's kind of counts against some that
37:57
he's counted as a midfielder and he's really playing defense.
37:59
But he's scored a goal. He's proven that he can do it.
38:01
He's looked pretty lively. He's kind of created some
38:04
chances. I think it's there's enough
38:05
there with a double game week that he's worth it.
38:08
Yeah. And then the next name on there,
38:09
Bernardo Silva. Yep.
38:12
Keeps on. How are you going to go about
38:15
the like City players, right? We have this problem that's
38:18
terrible problem to have. So you have Savio and I have
38:21
Doku. Let's say if the first game you
38:22
see they're starting, well, are you going to start them
38:24
regardless because you think you figured they're going to play
38:26
one of them? No, I think I mean, Pep is so
38:30
Pep. Pep is a fickle lover.
38:32
You know, he's so like hot, cold, on, off.
38:35
And it seems like right now he's off on his wingers, like in
38:38
general. Have you noticed?
38:39
I mean, have you noticed that? I have.
38:41
Yeah, so like to me, I mean more so Savio, I think Doku started a
38:46
game that Savio didn't. Yeah, no.
38:47
Doku started a game, Savio didn't, and I figured Silva's
38:51
gonna get more minutes, and I also figured KDB will get some
38:53
more minutes just because it's the last hurrah.
38:56
But to me, it's the first game Doku is playing.
38:58
I'm starting him. Yeah, I agree.
39:00
I think if he if Savio starts the first game, I start him.
39:03
If he's not starting the first game, I don't think I started.
39:05
And besides Doku, I also have O'Reilly who I feel like will
39:09
play both of those games. It's looking like, I mean, he's
39:12
looked really good and I just don't know, it looks like Pep's
39:14
starting to like Farty all more. An essential role.
39:17
Yeah, he's been playing nasty games cuz he's he's.
39:20
Really had no choice, has he? Yeah, well, also.
39:23
O'Reilly like fresh likes 20 years old.
39:25
He just started. Playing, running up and down the
39:26
field, looking good, creating. Chances, yeah.
39:28
And then the other interesting one is Arsenal.
39:31
They have literally nothing to play for, right?
39:33
Like in the EPL. Well, do they ever?
39:37
They don't want to drop down to 3rd place.
39:40
Isn't there like financial implications if you finish
39:43
second and third? There's some, but I think at the
39:45
end of the day it's. Not that bad though it's.
39:47
Way more about just freaking, I don't know.
39:52
It's way more about Champions League for them.
39:54
Like they don't care third or second third.
39:57
They put all their eggs in one basket and it's Champions
39:59
League. When is the next round of
40:01
Champions League games? Not for a little while, not for
40:06
at least not until after two or three weeks.
40:11
So yeah, so I think those are the big ones.
40:12
I mean, it's just those 3, they're all defenders.
40:14
I mean, it's just gonna be hard to find midfielders from those
40:17
teams that you can play or attacking players.
40:19
And then otherwise I think it gets really gross.
40:23
Odingra and CSO like games. It's really just like dart throw
40:26
type guys, you know? And then there is an interesting
40:30
development, which is Ola Ena is out, looks like he's going to be
40:34
out for a little while. So Moreno for the for forest
40:38
defence, the the forest defender is worth picking up.
40:43
That's a pretty good one. He scored, I think he he had his
40:46
first start since that injury. And I think he scored like 13
40:49
plus points in in that game, in that game, even though even
40:53
though they're even though they got scored on so that he didn't
40:56
get a clean sheet. So to me that's fairly
40:58
interesting as well. That's basically what I'm doing.
41:03
Yeah, and I'm grateful I'm not playing someone with a ton of
41:07
players that have double game weeks are you guys?
41:10
Figure I'm a little bit West Ham playing Southampton, that's
41:13
going to be 1 if you want to look at.
41:15
That's actually interesting is 1, because we just talked about
41:17
how a few, at least in our league, how few West Ham players
41:21
are owned. Yeah.
41:22
But there might be some attacking assets for West End
41:24
that you could sneak in. It's kind of interesting.
41:26
Yeah, it's a good shot. And who are you picking up?
41:30
And you, you could tell us who you're putting out waivers
41:33
because there's literally no like way we could get those
41:37
players. You're going to laugh.
41:40
I'm pretty sure I know who it is.
41:41
Marino. Obviously.
41:44
So that I did drop, yeah, the fact that he's dropped is pretty
41:47
ridiculous, you know? I mean, I had to drop him
41:49
because fucking it was between him and old Desgard.
41:53
Yeah, so Marino's the one I'm going for.
41:57
That's it. Yeah, that seems like a no brand
41:59
new. Yeah, I don't.
42:00
I'm looking at defenders but I don't know at the moment, but
42:04
because my defenders are strong, it's just they've been having
42:06
bad games. You know we're playing each
42:08
other, right? Yeah, I know.
42:10
I'm playing you. So, but the do you have you're
42:15
going to get the clean sheet for David Raya.
42:20
It's what you just convinced. It's a clean sheet, not
42:22
automatic. I mean, I'm hoping I have timber
42:27
so offsets it, the Newcastle and Villa.
42:33
That's gonna be a game. Yeah, it's gonna be a fun one.
42:35
And then the fact that Villa then has to play City, there's
42:40
like, Villa's not a good double game week.
42:42
No. Like, it's not like it's not
42:45
like one that you want. It's not like I'm keeping Ian
42:47
Matson on the team. That was a one week pick up for
42:49
me. Well, I think they're going to
42:50
go like Matson and Dina are going to sweep spots.
42:53
I think they'd probably start one game, but.
42:54
I don't know if I want to start Matson just for one game against
42:59
either of those teams or Newcastle right now.
43:02
I don't know about Matson. Dina gets crosses and he gets
43:04
key passes. Yeah, yeah.
43:05
I think it's Dina is different. Yeah.
43:08
How do we feel about Tottenham versus Forest?
43:13
It's a bounce back game for Forest.
43:16
It is. They just lost one nil.
43:18
It's a bounce back game. And it's a revenge game for, you
43:21
know. No, fuck no, no, it's so bad,
43:25
you know? See, I think Tico's got a Taser
43:29
this season, but he's, I still don't believe it because he's
43:31
not really a Man United fan. It's tough when your team
43:34
playing like shit week in week out, 17 games lost, oh so
43:39
horrible. Can't relate but.
43:41
So bad man, do you? Really think that you guys could
43:45
get 17th, 18th. You had Manchester United.
43:48
Oh, that'd be amazing. They're truly phenomenal.
43:52
But I mean, you know what, though, at the end of the day,
43:53
you guys have been bad for so long that at least like it's
43:56
part of it. At least you're not like Chelsea
43:57
where there's like this dangle of hope that you might like make
44:00
Champions League when like realistically when you watch the
44:02
games, it just feels like there's no way Chelsea's making
44:04
Champions League this year. They do not look good enough to
44:06
do that. I'd rather be up there than
44:08
where I am right now. The.
44:09
Hope is what kills you. Yeah, I was going to say the
44:11
hope is yes. Well it's also the fear gives
44:14
you a fucking heart attack of getting relegated so.
44:16
So let's do some table watch. So if Wolves play Manchester
44:21
United, if they win, they'll be tight on points.
44:25
If Tottenham draws, then they'll also be tight on points.
44:28
But if Tottenham loses, Wolves are going to leapfrog Tottenham.
44:30
Wow. That's so bad.
44:33
Yeah, this is bringing me so much joy.
44:36
That's. So bad.
44:38
You see that you're not a true United fan yet, Tika.
44:40
Yeah, you're not a true United fan.
44:42
You're not feel, you're not feeling enough pain.
44:44
Well, to be fair, as long as I've been a United fan, we've
44:47
been asked, so I've never seen the glory days.
44:52
Speaking of glory days, I want to bring up my the jersey I'm
44:54
wearing. It's the Derby County for that
44:56
year. It's the the year that they had
44:57
the like the worst team. I like that Chelsea, it's nice.
45:01
Yeah, it's good to get Jersey. It's actually signed by Robbie
45:03
Savage, is it? That's funny.
45:06
I just watched it a bunch. I don't really care that much.
45:08
Yeah, it's kind of funny. Derbyshire.
45:11
Yeah, kind of funny. All right.
45:13
Is that it first guys? Think so all?
45:15
Right, this has been episode 84 of Draft Off Sides with Tico
