#66 Would You Rather... Palmer or Odegaard? · Draft Offsides Podcast

0:03
I was actually thinking who would I rather have on the team,
0:05
Cole Palmer or or they guard? He's like Luke Skywalker and
0:09
he's underneath everyone. Iwobi.
0:12
You celebrate with them and you make them like me.
0:15
I just hold stuff, I clean some posts.
0:19
I'm filthy. Did you guys see what happened
0:22
at Real Madrid The Grand? Six drums.
0:28
Drums. And the team.
0:39
Washing Machine. Hello, welcome to episode 66 of
0:47
Dropped Off Sides. I'm with Tekken Renzo, My name
0:49
is Keith and we are looking at match day 11.
0:53
Match Day 11 is in the books. Go.
0:56
Three-way time for first in our league.
0:59
Congratulations Enzo for climbing that hill and the the
1:05
Premier League. It's kind of heating up, you
1:06
think is Liverpool, are they pulling away with it, do you
1:08
think? Do you think?
1:09
Not quite. No, not quite yet.
1:11
A little too soon. Not quite yet, but it is very
1:13
tight at top. Like man sees what 4 points
1:16
behind? Him five points.
1:17
Five points behind him and then that's not that's nothing really
1:20
in the league, you know, I mean, and if you look at the top ten,
1:23
top 10 is tight. So it's up for anybody grab at
1:26
the moment. We'll know more, I think, in
1:28
January. Yeah, I mean the this this top
1:31
four, it's starting to look like the the good old days.
1:34
It does, right? Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool.
1:37
Because not on the Forest shop because they lost.
1:39
Yeah, yeah, yeah. The good old days.
1:41
I don't know about good old days.
1:43
Well, yeah. All right, let's talk, Let's
1:46
talk studs. Studs.
1:48
There's there's one name on here that.
1:51
Bruno Fernandez 44.75 points projected to a 13.761 goal, 2
1:57
assists, 7 key passes and he scored in 10 different
2:01
categories. And The funny thing is, last
2:04
week we were talking about who will have more points at the end
2:07
of the year and between Bruno and Watkins.
2:12
This well, this is a little bit of a turn around, but we'll see.
2:14
There's still a lot of season ago we You're not jumping for
2:17
joy yet, are you? I actually AM.
2:20
You know, count, count your chickens, run.
2:23
All right. They're all he's he's last week,
2:26
what was he? He was actually like 10 points
2:28
again. Now he's at 12.5 and looks like
2:30
the trajectory's pointing it right way.
2:32
Remember they're changing managers again.
2:33
So this is van Nishroys last game in charge and now they got
2:36
this Porto manager was it? Where's he from?
2:39
Emeril Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sporting, Sporting.
2:42
Sporting, Sporting Lisbon, who his, if you look at the his
2:45
formation where he plays, it won't work with his Man United
2:48
team. So I don't know if you guys saw
2:49
it, but he's having issues with visa, his visa, so it might get
2:52
postponed until he comes to United.
2:55
Like for how long? I didn't read, I just read the
2:58
headline that says where he's having visa issues.
2:59
I'm assuming a couple of weeks. That's just, you know.
3:02
It will the international break. It should be back.
3:04
It should be fun. Yeah, I think it should be
3:05
plenty fine. I'm feeling really silly for
3:08
trading away Bruno when I did for Odegard.
3:11
Whoa. I'm feeling it's feel it's
3:13
looking worse and worse. Odegard did get an assist today
3:15
first came. Back and he looked good.
3:17
He he did, But I'm just saying this like Bruno, the Bruno that
3:20
I traded away was a 10 hog Bruno.
3:22
And like, if I thought I was going to get a Bruno with
3:24
literally any other manager on the whole planet coaching him,
3:26
then I would, I would have learned the Bruno because he's
3:28
just that good. Don't get it wrong, the game he
3:31
was it was excellent today look like Bruno of old.
3:33
Probably honest, but. I was so upset because last week
3:37
I mentioned once Ollie Watkins has a good game and Bruno has a
3:39
bad game, I'm trying to make that trade.
3:41
Bruno has 44 points and Watkins had half a point, so that there
3:45
goes that. Out the window now mate.
3:47
Yep. Should've done that last week.
3:50
Yeah, how did Watkins not make our duds list?
3:52
Oh, did I just give that away? He was on there last week.
3:56
You. Just didn't want to double them
3:57
up, yeah. That's nice because he owns him.
4:00
Keep going, selfish. OK, next one, next one on sets.
4:04
Emil Smith row at 23 points versus projected 13.181 goal,
4:09
Had three key passes three games in a row where he's scoring in a
4:12
double digits. So this is the player that we
4:14
were talking before the season started.
4:15
Hopefully he continues with the after the international break.
4:20
I've I look he's got a five goal contribution, which is pretty
4:24
good for this, you know, for this part of season.
4:28
I still don't believe him because Harry Wilson's coming
4:30
off the bench and doing amazing things is the last two games.
4:33
So I don't know. We've got to see if Harry Wilson
4:36
does it again and Emil Swift Row doesn't.
4:39
I think Harry Wilson deserves a start, so that's the only thing
4:41
I'm worried about. But I don't.
4:43
I don't think it's like either or.
4:45
I think it I think it is. Yeah, I think, I think you can
4:48
see Harry's Harry Wilson playing off a wing like Tryori, like on
4:51
that on that red side. Harry Wilson played a lot over
4:53
there when he was in the championship when he was hitting
4:56
balls into Mitrovic and stuff. So I'm just saying that like, I
4:58
don't think it's like a a must be in either way.
5:02
But like, to your point, Enzo, I kind of like I own Smith row in
5:06
a league and I'm not like, oh, wow, I'm so excited and there's
5:09
so much. Sometimes I'm just like, I feel
5:10
like he gets he drifts a game so he's not involved.
5:13
He doesn't he doesn't like go to the ball, but then when he's on
5:16
the ball, you can tell his class, you know what I mean?
5:18
So it's like, I think for me, it's more about like I want him
5:21
to change his mentality to be more involved, but I know that
5:23
he's a really good player when he's on it.
5:24
And like, that show is just from the fact that he's had five goal
5:27
contributions in 11 games. That's great for a player of his
5:31
caliber, you know? Yeah, he hasn't found the four
5:33
share like he's like Luke Skywalker and he's underneath
5:36
Obi Wan Iwobi. Jesus.
5:39
Christ, that's so. I'm just saying he's doing so
5:41
well you know what I mean. But he needs to learn from Obi
5:43
Wan 1st and we'll see. Did.
5:46
Iwobi have another great game this week.
5:47
Yes, he did double digits. All right, next on the list.
5:51
John Pedro, 21.75 points and he he came out in the last 24
5:56
minutes, one goal, one assist and he has three goals and one
6:00
assist in five games he's played this year.
6:01
So the amount of games in minutes hasn't been there, but
6:05
the production has been there. Can I say how good he is like
6:08
you guys love this guy, right? You guys have loved him since
6:10
last season. I I.
6:12
I like. Him.
6:12
Oh yeah, that's right. That was your, your hipster pick
6:14
last season. He's been amazing.
6:16
Honestly, all the Subs that came on for that Man City game were
6:20
absolutely phenomenal coming on. And he was, he was the main part
6:24
of it, I feel. I thought it's Lord of the
6:28
Rings, you know, you know the the first one.
6:31
The drums. And you can hear the drums are.
6:37
We good with Japej 0212021.75 minutes and 24 points.
6:42
Can you imagine? That's like a point a minute
6:43
almost. What an average he.
6:46
He's really good man. He came on very impactful,
6:48
scored a goal and I think is he one of those players like Harvey
6:52
Bonds and Go Nacho where if they're on the bench or Storm
6:55
because they're probably going to.
6:57
Come out no, I, I, I don't think it's quite like that.
6:59
I think this was like a good a good moment.
7:01
It hasn't been a thing consistently.
7:03
I also think he's been he's been injured for for a long time he's
7:06
coming back from England injury. So I think this was just him to
7:08
start to get fitness back. So I think it's like if you
7:10
owned him, you've been frustrated, but.
7:13
He was a starter before the first three games he played.
7:15
He started and he had 4 1/2 points, then 17 and 17 with two
7:19
goals. So maybe he's just kind of
7:21
getting back from injury. He might be started eventually.
7:24
Yeah, I think he's 100% going to be starting again, like sooner
7:27
rather than later. All right, honorable mention.
7:32
Alexander Issak, 21 points, one goal, 1 assists and it's three
7:36
games in an hour he scored. He seems to be back and he's
7:39
like the shining light for Newcastle this year fantasy
7:42
wise. Dude, I think he's elite, man.
7:45
I'm going to say I think he's elite.
7:46
He's one of the he's one of the top strikers in the league by
7:48
far. Like he can score with his head,
7:50
he can score his feet, great position.
7:52
He can get an assist. I think he just needs he needs a
7:57
little, he needs a nice run of games like he's having.
7:58
And I think he'd be like I said last year, if he has a run of a
8:02
season where he's not injured and he plays games and games and
8:05
games, he's going to be great. Love Isaac.
8:09
I don't think he's with Newcastle next year.
8:12
It's very impossible. He's.
8:13
Not depends on where they finish, I agree.
8:16
Yeah. I think if Arsenal don't win the
8:19
league this year or don't don't mean anything, they're going to
8:21
make a heavy push for him. And I'm going to predict that
8:24
no, Arsenal won't sign a striker because they haven't done in
8:26
fucking three years that they've needed one.
8:28
So they should have got Insac when he was available.
8:32
He's a great player. I think it's for him it's just a
8:33
matter of being healthy. I think the biggest hold back
8:36
for him is just he seems to get injured a few times a year,
8:39
every year. So he's been like.
8:41
Yeah. So that that's always going to
8:43
hold a bag, especially in fantasy where like you kind of
8:45
need to rely on your workhorses and what he went early for, late
8:49
1st, early 2nd, the Muslims. So yeah, he's like, he's a guy
8:53
you need to be, you need to get a lot from.
8:56
And he's been delivering so far when he plays.
8:57
But yeah, I know my my my my fan Tracks site is moving super slow
9:04
right now. You guys want to see what he's
9:07
ranked? Yeah. 65th overall.
9:10
Really, he was out for a little while.
9:12
He he was out for a lot. How about with forwards?
9:16
With forwards only he is, excuse me, ranked 20th, but if we look
9:22
at points per game then he is ranked 15th.
9:27
That's a bit I'd also because they get points per start too.
9:31
I feel like that that would change that quite a bit as well.
9:36
All right, moving on to the dead list.
9:39
Danny you Welbeck negative half half a point versus projected
9:43
15.08 that's a crazy high projection against city played
9:46
90 minutes and the only positive thing he had it was he won one
9:49
the ARL so but then he got dispossessed so kind of took
9:53
away yeah no production from your guy ends.
9:57
Yeah, but I'm not worried about it.
9:58
Look at the rest of the games he's played.
9:59
I think he's only had maybe one or two other games where he
10:02
scored less than double digits. This is against Man C Yeah, he
10:07
wasn't working, but he wore down that C defence, so when the Subs
10:10
came in he won the game for him. I'm not worried about Danny.
10:12
I'm going to keep, I'm going to hold on to Danny.
10:14
He's again depending on who he's playing against, but I feel like
10:18
he's up there with the best strikers.
10:22
Yeah, I mean, it's, I mean, strikers do this.
10:24
I feel like, I feel like every striker does this even like
10:27
Holland and all the top guys have just kind of like the game
10:30
builders out of it. So don't feel too bad about it.
10:34
No. OK, who else?
10:36
Callum Hudson adoi negative half a point projected 14.07 not a
10:41
single positive contribution in fantasy so he just had one
10:45
dispossessed did nothing the whole game that.
10:48
Was a rough game huh? For the northern forest, that
10:51
was a rough game. I feel like as a whole I don't
10:53
think they really did well, did they?
10:55
Maybe a Lanka? No, I mean they scored elated.
10:57
Well, they scored. They scored early and then they
11:00
gave up two goals or more than two right by the end 3. 3.
11:04
Yeah, but I mean, they, they just kind of fell apart.
11:07
But I mean, we're expecting this from a Forest team.
11:10
Yeah, we weren't expecting them to do a Leicester, you know what
11:13
I mean? I know all all of us coming out
11:14
there. I think they're still they're
11:15
still having a phenomenal season being in fifth at the moment.
11:18
I still don't think they're a walk over team.
11:20
They need to bounce back the next game though, to make sure
11:23
that he's staying at that area. To go what is it?
11:27
What is? What's your thought?
11:29
To me, it was surprising for them to give up three goals in
11:31
the second-half. Their defense has been amazing.
11:34
They have the second best defense and goals allowed.
11:37
So it was kind of surprising and I guess the team, Newcastle, who
11:40
doesn't really score a lot of goals.
11:42
They play Arsenal next too. That's a game both From don't
11:47
want to play. No, totally not, but they'll
11:49
they'll have the international break.
11:51
I think calm, that's it. A joy is just one of those guys
11:53
too. Like like he can, he can
11:55
disappear in a game, you know, so.
11:57
That's just a pedestrian. He can be a pedestrian for 89
12:01
minutes and hit like a banger from outside the box from in one
12:04
minute though too, so he's just one of those guys.
12:07
Who else? Guardio, we had to add a match.
12:10
The City player 1.75 points versus projected 14.74.
12:15
Coming into this game, he had over 15 points and four of his
12:18
last five starts. So nothing to worry about.
12:20
But City overall just doesn't. They're not clicking.
12:24
I was going to say the same thing.
12:25
I had him and he's been on fire before this.
12:28
So again, it's just a game that you didn't expect them to lose
12:32
the way they lost it. They were winning most of that
12:34
game. If if they had won that game, he
12:36
would have double figures, but he didn't.
12:39
I'm not worried about Bardiol. I'm not even sure if he's a
12:41
centre back anymore. I'm not even sure he's a left
12:43
back. I think he's like a freaking
12:45
forward. So Terry, he's he's ends, he
12:48
ends up in some weird spots. He does, yeah, but yeah, I'm.
12:53
Not yeah, I just kind of, I mean, the city thing is very
12:55
interesting. We'll see.
12:56
We'll see kind of how that unfolds.
12:57
But yeah, I think, I think you, I mean, you're not going to not
13:00
start him. No.
13:02
Who's next? Honorable mention our favorite
13:06
Bruno Giamiris 1.7 or five points.
13:09
He only has 1 double digit scoring game this year with 12
13:12
points, and even that's not impressive.
13:15
For the year, he's averaging 5.8 points per game for a player
13:18
that was projected to go in the top first two rounds.
13:21
I know all of us here were very low on him and we thought it was
13:24
crazy for him to get drafted, but I didn't think he would be
13:28
as bad as he has been this year and unless the team gets injured
13:33
like they did last year, I don't see his production getting
13:35
better. Yeah, we we all said because he
13:39
was so prominent last season because of all the injuries, I
13:41
think now I'm not seeing Tonali getting more game time and all
13:45
this he he's not being expected to do what he had to do last
13:48
season. So I'm not surprised.
13:49
This one, if you have him, I wouldn't really hold on to him.
13:53
I don't think he's one to hold on to.
13:55
This one I drop. I mean, it's getting to that
13:58
point. He has one assists, no goals
14:00
this whole season. I mean, even his key pass stats,
14:02
like, are not good. So it's not just like, it's not
14:06
just like it's not his fault, you know, Like, no, yeah, we
14:09
kind of knew this was coming from him, but it's just so tough
14:12
to see and hard pill to swallow for somebody who drafted him.
14:16
All right? Is that dozen Dods?
14:18
That's dozen Dods. Whoa, got through it.
14:21
All right, let's talk some of these games.
14:24
Man City's worst run since 2016. So 4 losses in a row.
14:28
The first time Pep's ever had four losses in a row in his
14:30
career. You know what Holland must
14:32
regret? Telling our tenant to be humble
14:34
and mark my words. He'll be a humble.
14:36
Kicker what? Since that?
14:38
Was that four games ago when he did that?
14:41
Like roughly. Dude, he's sometimes you reap
14:45
what you sow, you know what I mean?
14:46
Like, and honestly, he hasn't had the best time the last four
14:50
games. He definitely isn't the Harlan
14:52
that was the number one pick in my opinion, was he scored two
14:55
goals, which again, isn't bad. It's just the expectation of
14:58
Harlan and what and his Man City team.
15:02
But yeah, Man City, they need, they need him, but they need
15:05
they. He needs help from the rest of
15:07
the team. Yeah, I mean, yeah, totally.
15:09
I mean he he's someone that's always, he needs service, but
15:12
he's like he he scored his goals, he did his thing.
15:14
I don't think that's the I think the problem is for them is like
15:16
the defence in transition and like missing Rodri and like all
15:19
that stuff. Do you, you know, I was going to
15:21
say, do you think Rodri is the piece Rodri is?
15:25
Like, I mean, I think there's obviously a little more to it.
15:27
You can't just like say that and just like rap it.
15:30
But yeah, that's a huge part of it without a doubt.
15:32
It's. One player in a bunch of stars,
15:35
you know what I mean? I don't think that's the case
15:37
because they started the year on fire and Rodri was not playing
15:40
the they started the year Holland started the one goal
15:44
Hatcher Patrick Brace. So it's and they were scoring a
15:47
lot of goals. I think it's just a lot of other
15:49
things in the midfield and the line UPS that Pep puts out.
15:53
Sometimes it's kind of mind boggling because you have all
15:56
these players, you know, you like Fordham didn't play until
15:58
what a few weeks ago? Gundo Gunas back.
16:01
But is it really the answer? You're playing Nunez on the
16:04
left, Savi on the right, who's new new on the team.
16:07
I think it's just a lot of new pieces on a complex playing
16:11
style that's probably going to take some time to get used to.
16:14
Yeah, but Tigo, even in the games that they did win earlier
16:17
in the season, they were conceding goals.
16:20
So I think that that's where I think the Roger thing comes into
16:22
play, like the conceding of goals.
16:24
So if they're not going to like to your point though, like if
16:26
they're not scoring like they were at the start of the season,
16:29
then you can't afford to concede the goals because if you're
16:32
scoring like you were, it's OK to concede a goal game, you
16:35
know, but. To me, Kovacic is never the
16:39
answer and it's not just for City, it's just for any team
16:41
because he's he has flashes where you think he's good enough
16:44
to do the job, but he's really not.
16:46
There's a reason it's been bounced out so many times and he
16:48
hasn't had a consistent role on any team.
16:51
I mean, he was pretty consistent on the Chelsea team in the sense
16:54
that he played every game, but I don't know how consistent he was
16:57
and his performance is. But I know what you mean.
17:00
I just don't think he's a six. Like he needs it.
17:02
Like he's he's better in like a midfield three or something, you
17:05
know, where there's other people that do other things, but he's
17:07
just not that all around guy. But yeah, tough.
17:10
I mean, again, like tougher City, like the Brian is coming
17:13
back. Foden's probably getting into
17:16
his final form. You know, I'm not like that
17:18
concerned for Man City. Like a bad a bad Man City
17:23
season. Still going to see a lot of
17:24
players generate a ton of points and all respect to Breton for
17:30
beating him. That was some crazy sobs.
17:34
Hey, man, they did their job, O'Reilly gal Pedro O'Reilly got
17:37
13 points in that. He got that goal and he just
17:40
snatched at it. You know, take your chances.
17:42
Don't know who that O'Reilly is? That's not bad.
17:44
I say. I don't know who he is.
17:46
Yeah, but yeah, cool. All right, Next one, Wolves got
17:50
their first win. We knew that was coming.
17:52
We should have just bet on that game.
17:54
Yeah, I was like, Dad's certain they're going to win.
17:58
They were favored, so it wasn't going to be a big payout.
18:00
I think they were like what minus?
18:01
Oh it was minus one O 5 so it would have been like almost even
18:04
money. Yeah, but still, we should bet
18:07
on them. Honestly, our bets weren't that
18:09
bad. Bournemouth.
18:10
Didn't we? We were, we were, yeah, it was
18:13
close. I think that's better.
18:14
I think I was putting our our brain power together, Sigo said.
18:16
As put then as opposed to like dividing it is is the way to go
18:20
for those but but anyways. Say it Tico.
18:22
Say it. Say it, Tico.
18:24
He's smiling. He's got some of his fucking.
18:26
He's got some of his smile. I think it's the same.
18:27
Thing I'm thinking we win together, we list together, It's
18:30
OK. Podcast for life.
18:34
I don't think that's what you're going to say.
18:36
I don't think that's what you're going to say.
18:37
But OK. So Robbie scores the quickest
18:41
goal for Wolves in their history.
18:43
Oh, wow. Yep.
18:45
Is that is that something you have, Enzo?
18:47
I know it's someone you like. Oh, I know.
18:49
I have Sarabia, but he just, he got injured in that game too.
18:52
So he scored and got taken off. So you gotta watch.
18:56
I think it might be a hamstring. Yeah, Cuna had another really
18:59
good game. He's he's looked really good all
19:01
season and I think now if Wolves kind of can find a little bit of
19:04
form, then I think it's even better, Yeah.
19:06
Cuna has ranked 6th overall. God, I'm in such about trade
19:11
with me earlier in this year. What are you doing?
19:13
Like in hindsight now I'm just like sick to my stomach.
19:16
You got. Trade happy too early, Keith,
19:18
you did. Yeah, I mean he, no, I just
19:20
absolutely demoed him on the 1st trade.
19:21
So he sent me another one. I got a little cocky thinking he
19:23
was like oh this is cool. And then no, he was he.
19:26
He got me back. Hey, I hope you listen.
19:27
To me, I mean, to be fair, Keith, he has been out fire like
19:33
yesterday, one goal, one assist, the game before an assist, then
19:35
the goal. So he's been like scorching hot
19:38
so. I looked at his team and his
19:40
team is nothing special to me. No, but he's a good like he's a
19:45
like a mover shaker. Like do you see He's like he
19:46
like started a bunch of Everton defenders.
19:48
He's doing a bunch of like sneaky things to get to generate
19:50
points. I know, but his?
19:51
Team. He's a hustler.
19:53
His team looks wack but he's winning.
19:56
But OK, this moving on to the Brentford, Brentford,
19:58
Bournemouth game. Brentford came from behind twice
20:01
to win. Which was devastating for us
20:03
because that was the game that we lost in our three-game
20:06
parlay. And so there was twice where we
20:09
were feeling really good about Bournemouth.
20:11
But Whiswa was so 22 points in the brace.
20:14
He's looked he's looked like the main man, like Buenos kind of be
20:18
relegated off to off on the wing and like has not looked as good
20:21
since Whis has come back. Like it's a little concerning as
20:24
bueno on it. Evan Nielsen 19.25 points.
20:27
He got another goal. So that's what, four games out
20:31
of his last five, he's had double digits and this is his
20:34
high scoring game. Yeah, like he's like, I think
20:37
he's looking better and better. I think he's pretty exciting.
20:41
Janelle 15.25 with an assist, three goal goal involvement in
20:45
three games. Nice, really good games.
20:47
He's he's a midfielder too, right?
20:49
Yep. So that's that's something to
20:52
keep an eye on because I know midfielders that are generating
20:54
points are pretty scarce these days.
20:56
Liverpool cruises Passavilla solid got the goal at the end to
20:59
kind of pad his stats a little. This is an amazing stat Double
21:04
double, ten goals, 10 assists in 17 games.
21:06
First, to do it this season across all major leagues I.
21:10
Told you man, they I don't think he only got hair transplant, I
21:14
think he fucking got something on his knees.
21:17
You know, fucking, I don't know what he.
21:20
Did so you think he's juicing? Is that your time?
21:21
He's. Juicing, man, he's juicing.
21:23
He's fucking juicing. I saw some other stats where he
21:28
equalled the number of times with Wayne Rooney that he got a
21:31
golden assist in the game and he passed the RE 100 for most
21:36
assists in the EPL. Not ever.
21:38
Just individually, he's. Going he's going to be he's an
21:41
EPL legend already. Might be, but yeah.
21:44
But yeah, Liverpool like noon Nunez scores, but I feel like he
21:48
could add a couple more. You see that one-on-one he had
21:51
where he just locked it over the ball?
21:53
Yeah, like classic Nunez. Classic.
21:56
I think there was 2 instances, 1 where he had a breakaway and one
22:00
with that header. Yeah, both were like, but also
22:02
like you should. It should be OK to miss one of
22:05
those, but it's really tough when you missed 2.
22:07
Bro, but you missed that. At least try.
22:09
At least make the goalkeeper make a safe, you know, I mean,
22:12
don't whack it over the ball, but anyway.
22:15
And Luis Diaz started and played the whole 90 minutes.
22:18
Yeah, Diaz look good though. I like Diaz.
22:20
I've I've always liked. I'm a big fan of Diaz.
22:23
You know he plays really well, you know when.
22:25
His family's safe. Yeah, but his family's safe and
22:28
locked away, like, safely. He's good.
22:31
Not locked away. Bad choice of words.
22:35
I apologize. Moving on.
22:38
Watkins, What are we? What are we doing about Watkins?
22:42
He's still got a good amount of points for a striker.
22:46
Like where is he? No, Look, I know you're making
22:48
that face Tiko. You own him and I own him.
22:51
He still has a good amount of points. 100 and 216th for
22:55
forwards, 55th overall. It's not good.
22:58
He's he's averaging less than 10 points a game.
23:01
It's not good considering he was going in the first round.
23:04
Where he's going, but being in the top 20 for strikers isn't
23:07
that bad. No, that's not how you're
23:09
supposed to do, Matt. You look at their average draft
23:12
and what they're producing. No, no, I understand that.
23:14
But I'm talking about right now. I'm not giving up Watkins.
23:16
That's all I'm saying. Yeah.
23:17
You're not giving up. You're not dropping it.
23:18
I'm just saying, what do you do? I meant more from like, what do
23:21
you do? Like do you think about trying
23:23
to trade them or? I'm I'm not traded.
23:26
If you have good strikers then you rotate.
23:28
Like I've got Welbeck guys swinging or or him and I flip in
23:31
depending on the match up. I should have done that this
23:33
week but I didn't. But you know, it's what it is.
23:36
All right, full on form, they might be the most on form team
23:39
in the league right now. Two wins on the shot.
23:42
Hey, Wilson, 12 points comes off the bench and scores.
23:45
That's the second time in in the last two games he's coming off
23:47
the bench and scored goals. And so to your point, like this
23:52
might be a guy you'd consider starting.
23:53
I guess, like even if he's on the bench, but I that's tough.
23:56
I mean just he has to do it a few more times for me.
23:58
It's tough, but he's not a two games in a row.
24:01
You strike while while it's hot. You know what?
24:03
I. Mean a wall be with an assist
24:04
and then ESR with 23 points five goal goal involvement.
24:08
He almost had another goal too. I got chalked off by offsides by
24:10
a few but it. Was inch Yeah.
24:12
It was, yeah. But I mean, we talked about, we
24:15
talked about ESR, really I think the big story here is it will be
24:19
just he's doing more than he normally does because normally
24:21
he's a consistently like 20 ETH and 30th ranked player and now
24:27
he's in the top 10. I don't know, but he's scoring.
24:32
18. He's scoring 11.5 points a game.
24:35
No, he's not bad for a midfielder.
24:37
I mean, especially with Fulham just on the ascendancy like
24:40
this, he's just, he's primed to continue to score.
24:43
And So what you, what you get, what you got in the drafts
24:45
you're very happy about. Yeah, that form team's pretty
24:48
fun. They're a good team, man.
24:50
They're fun to watch both deep, like both defensively and
24:54
offensively. They're they're pretty good.
24:55
Leno having a quietly good season.
24:58
You know the best left back in the world.
25:00
And Tina Robinson. Yeah, you know, just doing his
25:03
thing. What a trade for that guy.
25:05
He's actually won. I've got a few bad trades.
25:08
All right, moving on, Ipswich. And just as Ipswich surprises no
25:13
one by being Spurs 2021, I think it's a surprise.
25:17
No, it's Spurs. Surprise.
25:20
No, it's Spurs being Spursy. It's exactly what I expected.
25:24
We beat, we lose the Crystal Palace, we beat City, we beat
25:27
Villa, we come back, we lose a Gaya Tasseri with their old
25:30
OAPs, old age pensioners and then we lose a fucking Ipswich.
25:35
It just makes sense that in in a Tottenham storyline, and we even
25:39
said this last week, Keith, did you want to bet on Tottenham
25:41
last week? Against No I don't.
25:42
I never want to bet on Tottenham.
25:43
Fuck you. No, it just felt like they're
25:45
just not. They're just so inconsistent.
25:47
Like, to your point, they're like, yeah, like, you know,
25:49
there's certain teams where you're like, oh, like they're so
25:51
inconsistent. I can't wait to see what they
25:52
do. Tottenham's like, oh, they're so
25:54
inconsistent. I don't even want to watch
25:55
what's going to happen. It's tough.
25:58
It's tough. And so last week you were
25:59
talking about you felt like Ange was in the hot seat and I was
26:03
kind of saying like, I think that's a little ridiculous.
26:04
I think now a little more he's the the seats getting a little
26:09
there's some seat warmers going under seats right now it.
26:12
Just takes a couple bad running games.
26:14
Don't get wrong, we lost. We lost our first game in the in
26:16
the UA far and now we've lost this game here.
26:18
We're still in the top ten, only three points away from 5th.
26:21
I believe it is, but you lose another couple games.
26:27
The last two games combined, Madison has played 12 minutes.
26:30
What's going on? He's still ranked, he's still
26:34
ranked 7th over 7th overall, but 12 minutes and he's probably one
26:40
of your best players. Yes, he.
26:42
Is. Yeah, easily.
26:44
Easily. I think.
26:46
I think and is just really trying to figure out how to make
26:50
this team. He doesn't care about fantasy,
26:52
that's for damn sure. Yeah, well, that's definitely
26:54
for sure. All right, moving on.
26:56
We talked about Bruno's monster day goat Nacho.
27:00
I can't. I hate that.
27:01
I I don't. I don't want to always say that
27:03
again. Scores off the bench.
27:06
Only started. Only started with his on the
27:08
bench. What's his I.
27:09
Told you this. Look, he's scored more goals
27:12
coming off the bench than he had starting.
27:15
So he's he's gone Nacho when he starts, he's GOAT Nacho when he
27:20
comes off the bench. The greatest bench player.
27:23
Remember last week when I said this guy has a thing to go for
27:26
the flair? He only wants to like Golossos.
27:28
Did you guys see his goal? Colossal.
27:31
And he didn't celebrate. And apparently Bruno Fernandez
27:34
afterwards said, you know, he's knows the fans are kind of down
27:37
on them, so he kind of didn't want to celebrate for whatever
27:40
reason. But you know, that's how you get
27:42
the fans back on your side. Well, they're not happy when you
27:44
don't celebrate. He's I'm.
27:47
Sorry, he's a baby. I think he's a little bit of a
27:48
baby too. He's he's got some prima Donna
27:50
in him. He is man.
27:51
And The thing is, you're Argentina and your your favorite
27:54
player is Cristiano Ronaldo. Get the fuck out of here.
27:56
I'm. Sorry, I also feel like when
27:58
you're up two O and you score it right, do they win three O?
28:01
What was the final three O? Yeah, three O.
28:03
Like you celebrate the third goal because that third goal is
28:06
game done. I don't care if I don't care if
28:09
your fans hate you. You celebrate with them and you
28:12
make them like you. That's your moment to like, be
28:15
like, fuck yeah, we're in this together, you know?
28:18
So they've scored, United has scored three goals, this is the
28:22
second time and they've done it against Leicester City and
28:25
Southampton. You give us the bottle of the
28:27
table team, we're going to put in three goals.
28:30
No, they should. The the big one for me is Ahmad
28:34
score. Ahmad started Diallo.
28:37
I feel now it's key. I think he I think he should be
28:39
starting week in week out. I'll be honest.
28:42
So did Rashford get a start? I saw Rashford or Gone Nacho
28:46
start along with him. Yeah, but I think the olive
28:48
should be signed week in week out, my opinion.
28:51
So you want I think garnacho is the better better option to
28:54
start. But you don't want started guard
28:57
Nacho. You want on the bench or guard
28:58
Nacho. So like.
29:00
So there's like a paradox. There's like the guard Nacho
29:02
paradox going on right there. You know what if we.
29:05
Play rash are playing for like 20 minutes and then sub him out.
29:08
Oh. He'll love that.
29:11
Oh my God, yeah, let's just ruin that man's life even more.
29:15
Newcastle come from from behind to win three one against
29:18
Nottingham Forest. Maria opened the scoring.
29:20
Elenga got the assist. We'll talk about Elenga in the
29:23
stud section, but he was on studs, not stud section.
29:26
On the waiver section. He was on waivers last week as
29:28
well. But yeah, I mean, it just looked
29:32
like it was a little stretched too far.
29:34
I think Forest kind of went into their shell a little bit after
29:38
they scored, hoping they could just defend a counter.
29:40
And Newcastle was probably just a little too good for them to do
29:42
that against. But Newcastle really needed this
29:46
result too. I mean, they I mean, they beat
29:48
Arsenal last week. They beat they beat Forest here.
29:50
But like before that, they they've been kind of on a little
29:52
bit of a topsy turvy they're. Still looking rough in the
29:54
league if you really look at it. Well, they sit in, they sit in
29:58
8th, Yeah. So if you look at 8th, 9th and
30:01
10th and then look above them, you're like what the fuck is
30:03
going on? But 8th is only one point behind
30:06
third, you know what I mean? So it's, I mean, it's incredibly
30:09
tight. The top, the top nine spots are
30:13
very tight. I'm going.
30:14
To say the top elevenths. From 9th through 3rd is
30:16
separated by a point. Through 3rd.
30:18
Through elevenths only separated by three.
30:21
That's true too. So it's tight.
30:25
It's kind of fun. Yeah.
30:26
No, it's, it's it's good. It's good.
30:28
I like it. Yeah, I like it.
30:32
I like it more if I was first or second.
30:35
Yeah, of. Course, yeah, but you know,
30:38
can't all be up there unfortunately.
30:39
But we'll see a lot of season ago.
30:42
Then under the game of the week, Arsenal, Chelsea, they share the
30:45
points. Arsenal what?
30:49
So Arsenal went up on a little. It was just, it was like they
30:52
tried to step and Cola didn't step cooking up on the offside
30:55
shop and he. Didn't even look like one of the
30:57
step man honestly. But I also feel like a better
31:00
keeper saves that. I think Martinelli's not good.
31:02
I'm like, I'm fully on that. He's not he's not that good 5.
31:05
From post From post and he didn't even smash it, he just
31:08
tapped it in. And like Sanchez, should have
31:11
bitched. I think, I think I'm better
31:12
Keeper says that. Can I be honest, Martin?
31:14
He shouldn't have shot that. He should have put it square to
31:16
yeah. Probably not so.
31:17
Whoever the fuck that I think it was Habert's it was.
31:19
Soccer. Soccer, wherever it.
31:21
Was wherever it was, it was an easier, easier goal.
31:24
So I think the goalkeeper was actually playing the pass for
31:27
the cross. That's why he went deer.
31:28
He was anticipating. He was anticipating the pass,
31:30
yeah. But the pass by Odegar was
31:32
fucking phenomenal. Quick, it was.
31:34
And I mean, I mean, that's the difference, right?
31:37
I think Arsenal is that game, that Odegard.
31:38
I mean, obviously. But yeah, I think having him
31:41
back is going to be a huge swing for them.
31:43
And I also feel like I think you can start making the argument
31:46
that Odegard might be more important to that team that
31:48
soccer. I'm surprised soccer didn't make
31:49
the Douglas. I've, I've been making that
31:53
argument for the longest time that Odegard is the most
31:56
important player on, Yeah, on Arsenal.
32:00
I was actually thinking, who would I rather have on the team,
32:02
Cole Palmer or Odegard? I think, I mean, Odegard's a
32:07
little older, so you'd think maybe a little more mature, but
32:09
I think from a pure talent standpoint, Cole Palmer does a
32:11
little more in my opinion. Yeah, it's a bias opinion, but
32:15
OK, I'll take it. Yeah, my humble, humble blue
32:18
opinion. I mean, it's also bias on my end
32:22
because always, always the youngest player in Real Madrid
32:25
history. That you stolen got rid of
32:26
because you guys didn't like him.
32:28
No, no, no, because we had too much talent.
32:30
I would actually when I played FIFA, I would put him, put him
32:32
on the bench when we used to go out by like a few goal, a few
32:34
goals. I would sub him in and I would
32:36
play with all they guard. He was like ranked like 60
32:38
something so it was like he was ass.
32:40
That's funny. So they got a goal, then Netto
32:44
got one back. Actually that was a really nice
32:45
shot from him. That was a really good play from
32:47
Netto. He looked good.
32:48
I think he looked good all game. He was really offensively and
32:52
defensively he was really pushing the ball.
32:54
There was a, there's a moment in the first half where he he like
32:57
he was going up against Ben White and he like pretended to
33:00
cross like 4 times and just kept kind of like Juke and Ben White.
33:03
And then he finally sent in like an amazing ball and Gusto should
33:06
have scored it. It was a header at the back post
33:08
if you should have scored so. Did you guys see Gabrielle go
33:13
off on hammers? Go off on him like Yeldon.
33:18
Yeah, after NATO took the shot, Gabriel, when I found hammers
33:22
because. He didn't track him.
33:24
He didn't track him. Yeah, He just made one move and
33:26
hammers just like kind of stop. Well, he had.
33:28
A hand he had a head injury, man.
33:31
Come on, whatever you're you're in the game.
33:34
Was it, did you see that? There's like a shot It shows
33:36
like Cucarella like telling the rap that he hasn't had injury.
33:39
Like it's kind of funny. It was kind of like Cucarella
33:42
being like, get him off the field, you know, like playing
33:45
like 3D chess. Cucaria.
33:47
Shut down soccer. Today.
33:48
Man, that was a good one too. Yeah, he, I mean, he shut down
33:51
soccer pretty well, I thought. There's only like one or two
33:53
little moments where soccer got away from him, I felt.
33:55
Yeah, that was it, man. It wasn't the best.
33:58
Honestly, it wasn't. Besides the two goals, it was
34:01
going back and forth, but it looks like a draw was the fair
34:05
result. I'll.
34:05
Be honest, I think just about just about a fair result.
34:09
Yeah. All right.
34:10
Those are the games. Quickly, just talking to some
34:12
ghost points. I'm pretty sure Kovich had an
34:15
assist. Enzo, I we got it.
34:17
We got to vet these ghost points.
34:19
Are you sure Every week there's at least?
34:21
Wait, Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
34:24
No, no assist. Thank.
34:26
You. No, he had five key passes and
34:29
one shot. The first thing, the first thing
34:31
I look at is goals, assists and then if it was a clean sheet, if
34:33
they were midfielder or a defender.
34:35
All right, fine, fine. Asshole.
34:38
So Nathan Collins, 60.25 points from Bradford, that's pretty
34:43
good considering they let in, you know, two goals.
34:46
So that's minus, I guess that's not only -2 Kovacic, Daniel
34:50
Munez, one of my favorite guys and I who I love for Everton.
34:55
I think he's a really good player if.
34:56
He is. Yeah, I think, I think, yeah, I
35:00
don't think he's on. I don't think he's on waivers
35:04
anymore, but he's the type of guy that was just picked up
35:06
Chaliba. You'll be hearing his name again
35:08
shortly. He's in Pinnock.
35:10
Solid game, all things considered.
35:13
From Brentford, Long staff 11.5, Nelson 11.
35:18
Last last two games, 13.5 and 1160% rostered.
35:23
That's Reese Dawson. Yeah, from Fulham.
35:26
From Fulham, yeah. Just want to look at.
35:28
Yeah, totally. You know, it's a smart one.
35:30
Savino with 10 solid, I mean. How do you what was the put it
35:36
off you switched out Savio for? For Jackson.
35:40
So I just, I was like, look at the matchups.
35:41
I said I feel like Savio's more likely to score points against
35:44
Brighton than Jackson is against Arsenal.
35:45
That was right, But it wasn't. I mean, it just wasn't enough
35:47
for me to matter in the matchup. But Savio 10, Jackson like 60.
35:52
OK, so was it like, was it relevant?
35:54
Still the right one? Lindstrom for 10 Where does he
35:56
play? Everton.
36:00
Everton. Is it offender?
36:03
Midfield, Midfield. I don't really know much about
36:05
him. Well, he's lost two games.
36:08
He's a double digits too. Yeah, interesting.
36:12
Evan's been pulling out some pointers again.
36:13
Man, they did the same thing last season.
36:16
I think I think you can safely start your guys.
36:19
It was a little bit of a bummer McNeil didn't start this week.
36:21
That kind of screwed me. I kind of got screwed that
36:23
matchup that I lost. I mean, I had screwed I had
36:25
three guys get injured and I had another two guys that normally
36:28
started that didn't start. So yeah, we.
36:29
Didn't talk about Trent getting injured.
36:32
Conor Bradley, if you can pick him up, or unless he's unless
36:35
Tico's already handcuffed himself.
36:37
No, I have Trent, but Conor Bradley's on waivers.
36:39
We can. We're going to cover wavers
36:41
right now. All right.
36:42
We'll start with him. I guess Connor Bradley's only
36:44
20% percent of leaks and just point that injury like we'll
36:47
have more clarity. I mean, there's there's also the
36:49
international break. So it's not like.
36:51
Jump on it right now. Well, you could.
36:54
Just yeah. But I but I actually think you
36:56
just you, you roll the dice on that because like the way that
36:58
Trent went down and stuff, I think it's like, it's definitely
37:01
worth trying to pick him up if you can and.
37:03
He has a history of injury. I did this that last week where
37:07
Colate went went out. I put I think 10 fab for
37:11
Symarcus and then drop them right away because Konath had
37:15
played. Damn, I just fabbed out myself
37:18
by 10. Yeah, it's.
37:20
Deleted you just deleted CTRL alt deleted some fab that you.
37:23
Have, I mean, if we have like 90 fab, who cares?
37:25
I mean, I know. You can't even write.
37:27
I got 8. I still have 8 FAB.
37:30
I have like 7. I have 7 FAB left.
37:33
So just put 8 and I'll be keep on everything 8.
37:37
But I think Conor Bradley could be like a world beater if he if
37:41
he gets a run of games, like we'll see how bad trans injury
37:43
is. I.
37:43
Think he's buying his time until Trent goes to Real Madrid.
37:45
So. He'll end up being I probably
37:47
should have picked him up last week with the rumors and now I'm
37:50
I probably won't be able to get on just with my FOB situation.
37:52
You think Trent's? Going to go in January.
37:54
I don't. Think so.
37:55
I don't know, but I'd rather I'd rather sleep.
37:57
I'd sleep well at night knowing I'd counter.
37:59
Probably on my bench if he did. Did you guys see what happened
38:02
at Real Madrid? What?
38:04
Lucas Vasquez went down, we lethal had another ACL tear on
38:07
the same knee. I didn't even know that was
38:09
possible. So he he's gone for the whole
38:11
year. So we lost two defenders.
38:13
So for sure they're going to go after Defender.
38:15
Are they going to go after Alfonso?
38:16
They might go for Alfonso Davis while they freaking out.
38:19
But he was going to come to the end of next season, so you think
38:21
they might just actually pay some money to bring him?
38:23
He he's a left back, No, no point in bringing him now.
38:27
Who's the right back at Tottenham?
38:29
Poro. Poro.
38:30
Yeah, Poro's another player they might go after.
38:33
That's interesting. OK, moving on though, another
38:37
name, Anthony Olenga, he was on waivers last week too, is like a
38:40
maybe, but like he's only 47% of leagues.
38:42
He finally got involved this week with an assist for us to
38:45
have a tough run of games. But Olenga is, I feel like his
38:48
game works better when there's a hard line that he can run in
38:50
behind and really challenge. So with that being said, I think
38:55
he's worth like snagging. I think he's better than a lot
38:57
of players on people's teams. Another one that's like been
39:02
sneaky good the last few weeks is Trevor Chalaba.
39:04
Only 50% of leagues, four games in a row with double digit
39:08
points from a defender. You'd love to see that.
39:11
So he's he's worth it. He's looking like the most
39:14
active turn in that line. Kind of like, was it Anderson
39:18
joking Anderson? Who was the defender that left
39:20
there? He looks like he's kind of
39:21
filling that void for them. Another name on here it's he
39:26
hasn't played particularly well since he's been back.
39:29
But because of injuries, I think he's worth skipping up is John
39:32
McGinn. Ramsey went down this game.
39:34
John McGinn or John Mcguin, The Grand Shakes.
39:41
Drums. Drums.
39:45
And the team, John McGinn, what do you?
39:48
What do you say? Washing machine is gone again.
39:54
No, it says Quinn here. But it's all right.
39:57
You always call me out for my spelling so.
39:59
How do you spell it? There's no you.
40:02
I'm pretty sure there's you. I've been wrong every single
40:06
time that I've said anything to do that.
40:08
So that's definitely not the way I spelled it.
40:12
You're totally right. Fuck me, I've been wrong.
40:14
I've been wrong. The fucking great.
40:16
It's been a just a day of wrongs for me.
40:21
But anyways, back to the point. John McGinn, I think that with
40:24
Rams, Rams injury, you're gonna see John start several games and
40:28
I think he's worth stagging for that reason.
40:30
He he's a hamstring too, so he's going to be out for a few weeks.
40:33
Yeah, and I think begin like last year, so much of what went
40:37
well with Villa went through him and like he's coming back off an
40:39
injury, so he hasn't played great, but I think that I think
40:44
that he'll kind of find his form.
40:45
I think he'll grow into the next few games.
40:48
We talked about Bradley and then the last name on here is Villali
40:50
Janelle we were talking about earlier.
40:53
Four of his last five games are in the teens.
40:55
They're playing Everton next. Better than a lot of mids on
40:58
benches. And it's funny because I had him
41:01
37% of him, so he's gone up 4% in the space of a day.
41:04
Yeah, he, I just think mids are so scary.
41:09
So if you find any other suing that it's kind of surprising
41:11
that he hasn't been picked up already.
41:12
Yeah, I agree. I like him.
41:23
And this has been episode 66 of Draft Offsides.
41:27
My name is Keith. I'm with Tico Enzo.
41:28
We will see you all next week. Follow us at Draft Outsides on
41:32
all the socials, all the places. It's looking at the match Day
41:38
12. There's actually a lot of good
41:39
bets. I know.
41:41
I looked there already. Yeah, I'm.
41:44
Going to make it premature parlay.
41:46
See what it? Works like a long like a long
41:48
like a lot like more bets than like a 5 gamer or something.
41:51
All right, boys, look at this. So if we bet $40, we win 1000,
41:58
Keith. In in two weeks.
42:00
We play each other, Keith. And which one?
42:03
The main one. Man only half back take up plays
42:06
this team. Take up plays a special one next
42:08
the next week, next game. Week and and I have it's going
42:12
to be Liverpool versus City and you know, I'm a Liverpool heavy
42:16
team, yeah. Really.
42:18
And then I play Thomas. I mean, he, Thomas has been
42:20
underperforming. I play Thomas next.
42:22
Week, I don't think he's been underperforming.
42:23
He's been scoring points. I mean his his results have been
42:26
underperforming. Yeah, yeah, he's but people have
42:29
been scoring a shit ton on Thomas.
42:31
That's why he's been crying in the fucking other league.
42:34
He has the most points against. Which is for the record too, I
42:36
just want to say that I did let everyone know about the point
42:39
adjustment for forwards at the very beginning, defenders at the
42:42
very begin know before the draft, but.
42:44
Do have you not noticed the two people that are talking shit?
42:48
If you don't know it's the two people that are talking shit.
42:50
It's Kyle and Thomas who feed off each other.
42:53
And then when Sergey and Tico just dropping little pebbles
42:56
here and there, it just fuels them even more and makes them
43:00
think they're right and they just get, once it was, come on,
43:03
keep something, Commissioner. Honestly, it's it's my favorite
43:07
thing when the when they group up on the commissioner and the
43:10
point system and. Attack you.
43:12
When Derek gets involved, it gets even worse because.
43:14
Then I was. Trying to I'm targeted early,
43:17
admit it. I was trying to complain to
43:19
Derek about this, you guys today, and Derek looked at me
43:22
and goes, why are you talking to me about this?
43:23
He's like, I'm on their side. He's like, he's like I'm
43:30
watching Iwobi just pass side by side, get all these points.
43:32
He's so. Mad.
43:34
He's so mad. So I got a trade offer from Kyle
43:39
for Mosala. He's giving me Daniel Munoz from
43:43
Palace, Lucas, Paqueta and Garnacho.
43:47
Yeah, classic he. Thinks he thinks we Add all
43:50
those together. It's a winning team, dude.
43:55
I think he's I think he's just going to do the thing he did
43:57
before where he's going to offer his whole team for Holland and
44:00
then they're like fuck it. I I do love his team name
44:02
though. If you're playing Mickey Bell on
44:04
the world. No, it's really good, Yeah.
44:06
He's six and five. He's he's, he's come back a
44:08
little bit. He was struggling early, no?
44:10
He's. Doing fine.
44:10
I mean, he goes the way of United.
44:12
So yeah, we talked. About, well, the year he won,
44:14
that's what happened. Honestly the the league is more
44:17
fun when Cal's competitive and. No, he's answered.
44:22
The league's more fun. When everyone's compared.
44:24
The one thing I like is that there's there's no at this point
44:27
last year it already seemed like there was like 3 teams in it.
44:30
Yeah, there was like there was already like a gap.
44:33
Yeah, there was already a gap like and Thomas was, Thomas
44:36
wasn't even on top at this point.
44:38
Thomas just stopped, just stopped losing after like 10
44:42
games in and he just kept winning.
44:43
And it was. Like I remember I had like where
44:45
I won like six or seven weeks in a row, then someone else had
44:47
their own. They won't like eight in a row,
44:49
but no one kind of Tom. No one.
44:52
Yeah, we got to, we got to get props to Porter in the Bros
44:55
League. Yeah, I mean, his I'm always
44:57
kind of laughing at him during the draft and he's like kind of
45:00
like come back up and like really figured it out.
45:02
Really has. Nice.
45:05
Slim. He's he's getting really good.
45:07
Yeah, but when you look at like, Porter, like I'm looking at his
45:11
team right now, who's his first round, I have no idea, Nunes.
45:15
Yeah, he picked our Nunes in the first round.
45:18
Look at Nate's team. I I said this earlier, I don't
45:20
know how he's taught. I don't.
45:23
I have no idea how he's taught. Well, Bruno Fernandez scoring 44
45:27
points helps Luis Diaz at the beginning of the season.
45:30
I feel like he's had guys that have gone off at different
45:32
times, like keep him kind of like floating like Diaz and
45:35
Cunha and Bruno, Yeah. Casa Miro, his defense is pretty
45:39
solid. Look at that.
45:40
What they're averaging 8.3 thirteen 910 points.
45:43
So his defense is pretty good. I mean I was talking about
45:45
Trevor Child, but he scored. His last four games have been
45:48
1212.7520.7515.75 and 13.5. That's pretty nice.
45:54
Is he literally? Just dropping and starring like
45:57
players are on fire around and he's keeping like a core 6
46:01
players. I think he was for a while.
46:04
I think he's probably settling into a team now, but yeah.
46:06
I don't think so. I think he's got Ismail saw who
46:09
I dropped, he's got him in there.
46:11
He got Buenanote, which he didn't want because he fucking
46:14
forgot a bad trade he put up. And then Buenos.
46:17
It hasn't been bad at all if you look at buenote.
46:19
No, he hasn't been bad. But he also won a match up by
46:22
score 89 points. Sometimes you got to be lucky.
46:25
Yeah, yeah, lucky. But he's been putting up points.
46:27
I'm going back. He's been putting up a pretty
46:29
good amount of points. Yeah.
46:33
I beat him 114 to 114.705. That's pretty nuts.
46:41
The drums from Kaza doom. That's all like he was saying,
46:45
you dumb fool of a tuk, you fool of a tuk.
46:50
How many times have you guys watched that movie?
46:51
I don't know. Like more than 10.
46:54
I definitely and the extended version too.
46:56
Wait in its entirety. All three of them More than. 3
46:58
and when I watch them I have to watch all three in a row.
47:01
Sometimes I watch The Hobbit and then I watch the other 3.
47:04
In The Hobbit, The Hobbit sucked.
47:05
They're not thinking. It wasn't.
47:07
It wasn't as good as Lord of the Rings, don't get me.
47:09
Wrong. No, they're they're don't not
47:10
even compare them. They were just not good.
47:12
But. Their first movie was OK, but
47:14
they got progressively worse. They were interesting.
47:16
I didn't really like the singing too much.
47:18
No, I couldn't get. Into that, I don't think Sergey
47:21
has ever seen the minute of The Lord of the Rings.
47:25
OK, he we have to fire him. He's he's no longer our editor,
47:29
producer, wherever you. Want to?
47:31
Yes, he is all. Right.
47:34
So Sergey, since we've done this on a Sunday where we get out a
47:36
little bit out of any chance, hopefully I like that.
47:42
It's a good statistic. That's it it's the hope that
47:46
kills you Sergey. It's the hope that fucking kills
47:48
you. I.
47:48
Got to go, I got to go walk my dog before you get sick all.
47:51
Right, I got to go put up a fence.
47:53
You're. Going to go back and work.
47:55
Is that why you want? Is that why you want to record?
47:58
Because you're like, oh, I could get out of work in for an hour,
48:00
hey. This is why he's dragging it on.
48:02
This is why he doesn't want to end the podcast.
48:05
Hey, Andy, just even when we finish, just just keep talking.
48:08
No one's going to know I'm going to.
48:11
Go help her. Right now they're just finishing
48:12
up the primer in the paint. It should be dry by now.
48:15
Let's see how they're doing They.
48:16
They need their court jester to make them laugh for a little.
48:18
While I gotta hold something, I gotta go hold the hammer.
48:21
These nuts. You're such a Dick.
48:26
I'm a I'm a DM Michelle, be like, hey, can you tell that?
48:28
So we want to record. He's not responding to his
48:30
messages. Hey.
48:39
You know how Kyle was saying we should all meet up?
48:42
Yeah, I don't think we should meet up.
