Hear me say that sweet, sweet song of a mic.
0:03
No, I didn't, but that's. Like is that you guys didn't
0:05
hear me say that? No.
0:13
Hello, welcome to episode 75 of Drafts Offsides.
0:16
I'm with Tico Enzo, my name is Keith and game week 23 is in the
0:20
Bucks. Guys.
0:21
It was a contentious week. Enzo and I battled both our
0:25
leagues. We came up with a win each.
0:29
Tico got another win to stay in first in our main league.
0:33
Yeah, just solid. So and then there were some some
0:36
good games this week too, I felt like.
0:37
I think this week, this weekend was really entertaining football
0:40
wise, even point wise. If you saw the amount of points
0:43
scored this week, there was a lot of points scored.
0:45
This week. It was kind of nice too, as it
0:46
wasn't from the usual suspects. It was like a helmet salad went
0:49
out for 40. Like Diego Atara kind of having
0:52
an amazing week and a couple of other guys just really kind of
0:54
coming out of nowhere. Yeah.
0:56
I was surprised. Having like solid weeks.
0:58
There's a lot of waivers this. Week.
1:00
Too. Yeah, you know, so, yeah, I
1:04
mean. Who would?
1:05
I guess Tyler Adams would score 22 points over five points.
1:08
You maybe? I'm, I'm not, I don't know.
1:11
You know I love Tyler Adams. I mean, I love Tyler Adams, but
1:14
not as a fantasy player. He's definitely American.
1:16
He has an American accent, right?
1:17
He's. Not he's very American yeah,
1:19
he's cut. He's like the I I think he's one
1:21
of the best American players Yeah, just for what he does.
1:24
I mean his for his position, he's pretty.
1:26
Is there like Pulisic Robinson? Yeah, Kenny.
1:29
Those are like the high profile guys, but I think, I think Adams
1:31
is for what he does is one of the best.
1:34
Like one of these. I got really good 6IN my mind.
1:36
OK, OK, moving on. Should we get right in the
1:39
games? All righty, first game we're
1:41
going to talk about Brighton 0, Everton 1A David Moyes master
1:45
class. OK, what the fuck is going on?
1:48
Fuck Moyes I'm pissed off with. This guy, I think they had one
1:51
shot on target. And it was the pedal.
1:57
Young bench two games in a row, no one cares except for you.
2:00
Ends out. That's why I'm pissed off at
2:01
Moise. Like, why are you?
2:03
Why are you pinching this guy? Yeah.
2:05
I mean, new coach young is how old is young actually?
2:09
He's 38. So yay or something so.
2:11
It's probably just a new coach who wants to get some fresh
2:12
blood in there. Changing things out, I get it.
2:14
He's been so good for Evan. He.
2:16
Hasn't been a fantasy fantasy element, but maybe no, he hasn't
2:19
been as good from what Moyes needs from his right back.
2:22
Maybe he needs a young O'Brien to run up and down the pitch a
2:25
little more than than Ashley. Young kids.
2:27
Guy doesn't even spell O'Brien right.
2:31
Declan Rice, You know, DLC, Dominic Calvert Lewin subbed
2:35
off. He's injured.
2:36
I think he's done few weeks. It's a bummer too.
2:38
We were kind of hot at him after scoring last week.
2:41
We kind of jinxed them. Story of our lives.
2:45
The defense for everything continues to look good.
2:48
Michael Lenko 16.25, Brand weight 15.25, Tarkovsky 14.75.
2:52
And then we talked about O'Brien 12.5. 2% owned as a you if if
2:56
you're as a young owner. Who got a lot of points from
2:58
Young? Are you going to pick?
2:59
Up a brand as insurance. I'm thinking about it because
3:02
Ever and Defenders still do have a lot of good points in there,
3:05
but I still got hope for Young, but I don't have anyone.
3:08
I can probably pull some. I don't know.
3:09
We'll see. And I got the goal, 9.5 points.
3:13
This was wild to me. So he scored and he did like a
3:15
Seagull celebration. It wasn't even that.
3:17
Like I don't think it was out of Regis.
3:19
I don't think. So why are they give me yellow?
3:21
It's so ridiculous. Well, there was a couple, you
3:23
know, we'll get there, but there was a a couple bad decisions
3:26
this weekend. Yeah, they were.
3:27
For sure, right around the Brighton side.
3:30
Pretty underwhelming, huh? Was there?
3:32
Anyone really like Welbeck? No points.
3:34
I don't think Jon Pedro did much.
3:36
I don't think there was much going on on it from any, you
3:37
know, Welbeck. 'S Welbeck's right on the edge
3:39
of the Cliff. On most teams he should be
3:41
getting dropped or changed out, and leagues are on that date.
3:44
You know what I mean? Which is tough when you think
3:46
about how good he was at the end of the year, but that's why I
3:48
think we were all kind of like pumping the brakes of that a
3:49
little bit. Yeah.
3:51
Yeah, I grewed. I got the start over Minta,
3:53
which we're interested about kind of a unfortunate one.
3:58
Yeah. So and then no, we did not get
4:01
to see our guy that we're hoping to see like on this day,
4:06
Brighton, Brighton March that sorry March, sorry March.
4:10
We did not see Sorry March. I'm the East, I think they
4:12
arrested him for next season. And he's gotten up there in age.
4:16
I think it's like they arrested him to like.
4:18
He gets sold sold back to the German league in the summer.
4:21
Something. Yeah, I.
4:22
Don't know. I think, I think we can give up
4:23
on that guy. Yeah.
4:25
All right, next game. This was the main event of the
4:27
of the week as far as we're concerned.
4:28
It was Bournemouth versus Forest.
4:30
Bournemouth went ahead and won 50.
4:32
These are the two most in form teams in form teams in the
4:35
league in Bournemouth really cleaned the floor with Forest,
4:38
which is no one's done this year.
4:40
No one's done this to Forest. No, no, no, no, no.
4:42
So pretty shocking snapped. At 8, game-winning streak for
4:45
Forest right there. Django Tara 38.75 points with a
4:49
hat Chick. Four shots on target, three
4:51
goals. That's pretty nuts.
4:52
That's. Pretty nuts.
4:54
You know, some other decent one successful dribble, one block
4:56
shot, 2 aerials, 1 whatever. Simenyo kind of salvage his
5:00
point. You end up with 26.75.
5:02
You got a goal late for the fifth goal which they they all
5:05
count. Three key passes, three shots on
5:07
target, 2 tackles, 11 accurate cross, three.
5:10
I don't know. I don't even know.
5:12
Three effective clearances, 2 successful dribbles.
5:15
Yeah. So a lot of different, a lot of
5:16
different stat areas that he got.
5:18
Clive Rate, Clive Rate 25.25. And then Tyler Adams, what we
5:22
talked about with a solid amount of points as well, and then a
5:24
low 20s. So the Tyler Adams 2 assists, if
5:27
you look at his what those assists were, it was like
5:30
winning the ball in the midfield, like passing to
5:31
someone who like dribbled through.
5:32
A lot of people, like both of them were like that.
5:34
So I'm not sitting here like Tyler Adams is the guy you
5:37
should go pick up. It's kind of just felt like
5:39
there's a little bit circumstantial with that
5:40
personally. Yeah, he did have back-to-back
5:43
double digit games though, so he.
5:44
Did, yeah, but I also, I think yeah, I.
5:47
Don't know. I'm not AI think there's very
5:50
few like center mids that in his position that can be really
5:54
viable long term. And we're talking like city and
5:57
you know, But rest in peace, Rodrigo.
6:00
Yeah, Hey guys, just listen to what how Keith sounded there
6:03
about this player and how bad he thinks he's not going to be.
6:05
He's going to do like 30 points next.
6:07
Probably right. Tyler Adams, you're.
6:09
Going to hear 1st 10% Forest just kind of like not a great
6:13
game for everyone. I will say that like Anthony
6:15
Elena still managed to get 15 points I think.
6:16
Chris Wood I think always is going to struggle with just get
6:19
goals. Elliot Anderson wasn't that
6:22
viable. It was just a bad game All in
6:25
all for. The Forest, yeah, obviously no
6:27
defender is gonna have any sort of scoring of potential.
6:30
There's five goals set in. So just you just hope this isn't
6:33
the first crack in the dam breaking and you hope it's just
6:36
more of a blip. But we'll have to see.
6:38
I mean, I think the issue with Forest is the fact that there
6:41
are like one injury away from collapsing in my opinion, which
6:45
is scary and. Where?
6:46
I mean, anywhere, anywhere, like if if they lose one of the, if
6:50
they lose one of the center backs, I think they're in
6:51
trouble. If they lose one of their Senate
6:53
mids, they're in trouble. If they lose Chris Wood, they're
6:54
in trouble. There's just so many positions.
6:56
I think that if they lose that and the whole structure might
6:59
kind of have issues. So I mean, I'm saying this,
7:02
they've been amazing. Let's I'm hope they continue to
7:04
be amazing, but I'm just saying that that's that's something I'm
7:07
monitoring as someone who's has like a few forest pieces.
7:11
OK, OK, next game. Liverpool 4, Ipswich won.
7:16
Ipswich is how to score. I ruined my freaking clean
7:18
sheet. That's the worst gacbo.
7:22
With another goal. And so you kind of posed the
7:24
question, is it official? He's finally the player that
7:26
they brought on Gacbo with two goals.
7:28
Two goals, yeah yeah, two goals, yeah.
7:30
As he finally. Are we finally seeing the Gacco
7:33
that we saw with the Netherlands all those years and we saw a
7:36
PSV. Was it PSV before he came?
7:38
PSV. I know of it I.
7:40
Don't remember where he was. I think it was.
7:43
But yeah, I mean, he's looked really good.
7:44
I think it's all with the because of the fact he's coming
7:46
off the left. I don't think.
7:47
I think Clock was really trying to play him as a central striker
7:50
and it just wasn't really his role.
7:51
Then when you saw him with the Dutch, he was always coming off
7:53
the left. But I think in the past that
7:55
spot was there was other players that Clock preferred there,
7:57
which were, you know, Luis Diaz and Jota and all these other
8:01
people. But I think now that we they've
8:02
got Arnie slots in there and he's playing him in his rightful
8:05
position, he's looked really, really good.
8:06
So, so yeah, I think it is official that he is the guy that
8:10
they bought, they bought him to be.
8:12
Yeah. Slowest side put in a huge game,
8:14
22.25 points with a goal. Tico's a slow, best sly owner.
8:18
How are you feeling about him? Great, solid scored.
8:21
He had a 2 game drought which was probably the longest for the
8:24
year for him so I was hard to get worried but he scored a
8:26
goal. Only 18 points.
8:27
No key passes any of that sub, but most solid does the most
8:30
solid things. We're not worried about that.
8:32
I was happy for. It's just scoring because I was
8:34
doing against the Liverpool defender.
8:36
So sorry Keith, but I was. Greaves 10.2.
8:39
Five points is that that's an Ipswich player.
8:41
Another thing that I'm going to shout out, but we'll talk about
8:43
more waivers is Julio and Siso is now officially it's play for
8:46
Ipswich the rest of the season. I think there's some viability
8:48
there. He came out for 10 minutes, but
8:50
I think he'll probably start starting pretty quickly.
8:52
This Ipswich team, anyone else to talk about for Liverpool?
8:55
Trent had an assist. Yeah, he look good.
8:58
It was just the easygoing classic.
9:00
Yeah, they just controlled the game.
9:01
Yep, they gotta keep those clean sheets.
9:04
Can't let those goals go in. Yeah, I hear you.
9:06
Speaking of clean sheets and Tico jinx this one and I'm so
9:10
mad at him for doing it. It's Southampton won Newcastle
9:12
3. Tico last week was like easy
9:15
points, easy Newcastle defender points.
9:17
Next week in. Southampton and I was like,
9:19
yeah, you're. Right, and I started. 2
9:21
Newcastle defenders and then what?
9:24
In the 1st 10 minutes they saw the end of squared.
9:26
It was like shit but Newcastle pulled it through and like Isak
9:31
just unstoppable right now. He is.
9:34
He is him. Is he world class?
9:38
Yeah, Yeah. You think if if there was a
9:40
squad of 23 in the world, he'd make it into that squad?
9:43
That's how I'd see it. Yeah, I think 23.
9:46
I mean, what's strikers? I mean early Holland above him.
9:50
You don't think Lovandoski just because of age because he's
9:52
still banging in goals? See, yeah, I mean, if, if you're
9:55
maybe if you're looking for the game right now, you need to play
9:58
again tomorrow, maybe pick Levandowski.
9:59
But it's like if you're thinking to build the team for the
10:02
future, he's definitely. He's definitely the bet.
10:04
One of the best strikers. Top two top.
10:06
Three, I think. I think what you forget about
10:08
East Side 2 is he can play coming off the left too.
10:11
So his his versatility is what I think that makes him well
10:14
cluster. Yeah, yeah. 31.5 points, a
10:18
brace, one key pass, four shots on target, 2 successful
10:21
dribbles, one penalty drawn. Enzo, you were kind of
10:22
complaining about the fact that he doesn't get an assist from a
10:25
penalty drawn. I wasn't complaining a goal.
10:27
He. Scored and I think the
10:28
comparison I would make is that if you sometimes goals are.
10:33
Counted without an assist being given for them and so I think
10:36
this is a similar. Situation.
10:37
Yeah. Every game this season, whoever
10:39
wins the penalty gets. The assists, if they don't score
10:41
the goal, they get an assist if they win the penalty and there
10:44
are not the goal scorer. Sounds like commissioners.
10:46
You can't assist. Yourself, yeah.
10:48
You can't assist yourself. Essentially I.
10:51
Think you can? I'll take you care.
10:53
I don't think they count the stats.
10:56
Bendrek with 18 points. We've been Enzo, you've been
10:58
like quietly champion Bendrek for like 2-3 weeks now.
11:02
Southampton. It feels so yucky, but this is
11:04
his third double digit game in a row.
11:06
He's 13% owned. He's actually finally made
11:08
waivers this week. Denali 17.75 points.
11:12
He got a goal from a nice little Gordon pass.
11:15
I mean, I'm not I'm not sold on him.
11:18
I'm not from like a fantasy but. I think like he is like a player
11:21
that can spot * if you need a midfielder, especially in this
11:24
new console team. He has had some good games, it's
11:27
just not every game. Yeah, I think that the
11:30
inconsistency for me, yeah, is a point.
11:33
He's obviously incredibly consistent as a midfielder, but
11:36
what he does, but yeah, I just, I think there's other.
11:38
Places I would roll the dice with personally.
11:41
But yeah, I see it. All right, Next game, Wolves 0,
11:45
Arsenal one strand. Larson subbed off injured, which
11:48
is alarming, but also opens up some opportunities that we can
11:51
talk about in waivers later. Yeah, Lewis Kelly got that red
11:54
card, 43 minutes suspicious. What do you guys think?
11:58
Was that a bad? Was that a terrible red?
12:00
Feels like Oliver is a he's a new cause of vanity so I think
12:04
he was trying to set up the game for Arsenal to lose I.
12:07
Hate the way Arsenal fans complain.
12:10
And that being said, I fully thought they just were
12:13
ridiculous. Yeah, they fucking just went in
12:14
this one. Yeah, I thought it was pretty
12:16
bad. When I and they went to VAR and
12:18
VAR looked at it for a good fucking few minutes, wasn't that
12:21
they had a quick look, they fucking looked at us and said,
12:23
you know what, let's double down.
12:24
Yeah, that's all fucking right. The.
12:25
Issue is that these these nerds in charge of VAR and they go
12:28
well actually by the letter of the law studs were raised above
12:32
the a goal blah blah blah and it's like no actually it was
12:34
like he barely he used the trip and there's nothing more to it
12:36
and any. Yellow card.
12:37
Yeah. Anybody ever play the game?
12:39
Which I see, but when you if you were to maybe break down the
12:41
actual rules, maybe you can make some sort of weird convoluted
12:45
argument that that's a red, but realistically that's not the
12:48
case. Yeah, it was.
12:49
It was a bad call by the referee, definitely.
12:51
Yeah, it was a professional foul.
12:53
Yeah, that's all it was. It was a yeller every day of the
12:55
week. Yeah, it was disgusting, to be
12:57
honest. Gomez got it.
13:00
Also got a red card in the 70th minute.
13:01
That one was fair. I don't think anyone complained
13:04
about. That one I said yeah, not
13:04
suspicious at all. That was dirty as fuck.
13:07
Yep and then Enzo as Enzo likes to call him Cal Fiori or
13:13
Cauliflower. Cauliflower comes in and gets a
13:16
goal for them, saves Arsenal and ends up being a one out game.
13:20
RYA the high score Arsenal player 15.25 points.
13:23
How about Gagu, a defender for Wolves?
13:25
17 point Cunha, 4 dots in a row. Worrying.
13:31
You know, the most annoying thing is that we had a trade
13:34
with this guy Nate, who's running away in one of our
13:36
leagues, and he he traded away Kunya and another piece to get
13:39
Holland. And it at the time it was like,
13:41
oh, this actually kind of makes sense.
13:42
But now it's like they just did it again.
13:44
He fucking got crystal ball, man.
13:47
Yeah, he's got, you know that witch in Dragon Ball Z that
13:49
rides around the crystal ball? I've never seen Nate but that's
13:52
how I think he looks like. That's fair, Fair assessment.
13:56
I think he's like, what'd you? Say hey the 5th defeat Kunya.
14:01
A little bit, yeah. Defend them.
14:02
Defend. Yeah, defend, yeah.
14:04
So defend four games, right? So first game back he came on
14:08
the only second-half they were down against Newcastle.
14:11
How to seem. So he's still managed 9 points,
14:13
9 points, five points against Chelsea, which that one you
14:17
expected more points. And then again nine points in
14:19
the loss against Arsenal. So it's not that he's having
14:21
that. It's not back 95 and 9 coming
14:23
off of an injury. Also also him and his manager,
14:28
they said kind of some issues. Rocky relationship and I don't
14:31
think Kunya wants to leave too so Kunya's probably pushing for
14:34
the exit as well which is distracted.
14:35
He's so 9 is a dud for Kunya just like a 14 is a dud for
14:41
Salah. It's exactly the same.
14:44
It's a dud for the standards he's.
14:46
Set. I know you're saying it's a.
14:47
Stud. You know, coming into the year,
14:50
if Kunya averaged 9 points you would think that's decent.
14:53
Yeah, but that's coming into the year.
14:54
Yeah, he's about what he performed.
14:56
Yeah, he said. Higher standard.
14:57
You can't do that, Tico. You know, you can't just get
14:59
your head out. Is us, are we?
15:01
Are we're so concerned? About Arsenal's attack though,
15:04
right? Well, yeah.
15:06
But I know they went down a man, I know yada yada, but I still
15:08
it's just it's not looking good. Actually, I don't know if you
15:11
guys we want to chat about it, but I traded away Odegard for
15:16
and I got Peter Fernandez. I don't.
15:17
Know it's huge. Great for you after you said
15:20
Bruno Odega relevant. How many times?
15:23
How many times do you touch fucking Odegard and Bruno?
15:26
Well, we've sought twice now, yeah.
15:29
Maybe we go back to your eyes. I'm never going back to Odegard,
15:31
I'll tell you that much. I don't care.
15:33
I don't care if they play Bruno Fernandez as.
15:35
A defender the rest of the season.
15:37
Is it not this, but you both it's the same teams, right?
15:40
It's not. Different.
15:41
Yeah. I'm training.
15:42
I'm training this. Me and the same guy.
15:43
I've literally just like playing musical chairs with Odegard and
15:46
Bruno Fernandez pretty much. It's Steve Bruner Phones what's
15:52
what's good out with Calipari. He's another frustrating player
15:55
to own that whenever he plays, he he produced his points.
15:58
Dude has like two goals and an assistant off of eight games but
16:02
he doesn't start. He's frustrated, injuries, he
16:04
hasn't been, he's been coming off injured.
16:05
I think they're just being careful with him now because he
16:07
came in and got started getting injured so quickly right away.
16:09
So I think they're just really doing workload management with.
16:12
He does have fantasy value. They might humble up.
16:15
You don't, you don't know. That's pretty C value, but I
16:17
think it's like he's just not guaranteed to start.
16:19
So but if he started you, you throw him in.
16:21
Yeah, yeah, sure. Yeah, yeah, sure.
16:23
One of those holy flower has fancy value.
16:25
I know you don't like. It Lindo, but I think most
16:27
people would agree he. Does and and.
16:28
I'm Italian and I don't like him.
16:30
OK, I think he's overrated. OK.
16:33
OK. Moving on.
16:34
City 3, Chelsea one. Ouch. 2 new City players both
16:39
got starts, Moush and Khusenov. I want to forget for Kushanov,
16:43
who literally within the first few minutes headed the ball back
16:45
pass a bad back pass that went straight to Jackson who knocked
16:48
it over to matter back to score. Barbush looked a lot better
16:52
actually. That's a really exciting
16:53
moments. I think the five points he
16:54
scored wasn't quite indicative of how dangerous he looked, you
16:58
know, because there's a lot of offsides.
17:00
But you want to look at what he, if he can produce fantasy wise
17:04
the same as Rogers Lawson. We can use that example every
17:06
time You can look good and he did.
17:08
Don't get wrong, I think he did. I gave him a different dynamic
17:11
to Man C around the back, spinning off and making runs,
17:14
but unless you have that, you know that factor at the end
17:18
where you go a key pass, a shot and goal.
17:19
Or finishing. Yeah, yeah.
17:20
Or finishing or anything like that.
17:21
You can. Five points is going to be
17:23
indicative of what kind of games you're going to have.
17:26
Yeah, adapt. I think it's his first game of
17:28
the league, so you can give him a little bit of like think you
17:30
look at him, you go OK, there's something there.
17:32
What is the same with Kusanov 18?
17:33
Doesn't speak a fucking lick of English.
17:35
Had two trainings. What do you expect?
17:37
That's pep that. Was I thought that was
17:38
ridiculous. I think, I think you can do that
17:40
with attacking player a little easier.
17:42
I think to throw an 18 year old defender in like that is
17:45
absolutely ridiculous. Yeah, man, like crazy.
17:48
He's losing his fucking mind, Pep.
17:50
Yeah, and. So what do you say here?
17:52
It's is an official no CL to worry about makes them more
17:54
dangerous. So you're saying if they don't,
17:55
they don't win this? Week.
17:56
They don't win this week and they're out of Champions League.
17:59
Are they even more dangerous? Because now they're absolutely,
18:01
I think, I think any Premier League fan is hoping that they
18:04
win and get into the Champions League next round so that
18:08
they're just can be distracted a little bit cuz I think that's a
18:11
good. Shot Holland got that goal just
18:13
really capitalist after Robert Sanchez mistake 28.25 points.
18:17
He also got an assist in the dying moments.
18:18
There's a really nice way he held up that pass from Anderson
18:21
and played it off also. Down the middle.
18:22
Yeah. I mean, that's I mean, that kind
18:24
of transitional play is where how Holland scored a lot of
18:28
goals in Germany. So it's interesting that Pep's
18:30
kind of gone back to this like long ball thing.
18:32
I don't know if that was just getting Chelsea because their
18:34
highline was that was so bad and Pep was like, oh, we can just
18:37
literally knock balls over the top and run onto it.
18:40
But it's an interesting thing that Holland's really good at as
18:42
well. And so it's actually kind of
18:44
scary. He had worked out for him more.
18:45
He's been padding the stats more, but before you had to
18:48
score a couple goals, you know, I mean, and all he got was shots
18:51
on target. And this you saw he had two
18:53
effective clearances, 4 arrows, one inception, two shots.
18:56
You know he had he had three key passes too, which is from him is
18:59
unheard of. Yeah, righty.
19:01
All with a goal. 18 points, Nunez. 18 points an assist.
19:05
Nunez, actually. Had a good game in that right
19:07
back position, which we haven't seen.
19:08
It was weird to do that much. It is weird, but they've been
19:11
doing it. Folded 13.25 points.
19:13
You got that goal. So seven goals in seven games
19:15
for him. He is officially back to his old
19:18
self. He's back.
19:20
Chelsea pretty disappointing game across.
19:21
I mean obviously the Jackson got assists to matter.
19:24
OK, they scored decently. Palmer absolute dead.
19:28
Enzo pretty mediocre. Enzo's back with his Enzo's back
19:31
with his wife. So we should expect him to, we
19:33
should expect him to regress a little bit from his performances
19:36
because you know that Enzo as a terrible person is much a much
19:39
better player. He's still a fucking terrible
19:41
person. He literally broke up his wife.
19:43
Just go fuck around and then go. No.
19:45
No, he fucking dude. He fucked around.
19:48
He went around London and fucked around father.
19:51
He did, I mean. He's like, you know, you have
19:54
sources on this? Oh, I've seen it all, seen the
19:57
pictures. Tabloids, mate.
19:59
Are you tabloids? Huh.
20:02
My brothers. Ask Eskimo brothers.
20:06
Chelsea yeah, I mean, it's not good it.
20:08
Just wasn't bad. They hit Mensi on a bounce.
20:10
Chelsea's on a pretty bad streak right now and not so much like
20:13
the goal, like the we always talked about them and they're
20:16
they when they were on that good winning streak, they were
20:17
getting punished offensively. But I think more importantly now
20:20
is that they're not the attack is so bad right now, Like it's
20:23
really looking bad and like the these players are scoring really
20:26
well. Even like the Sanchez and the
20:27
Netsos were were able to get. We're getting a lot of points
20:30
for a while now. And now it's all just dried up
20:31
and everything just feels like the attack is so dry.
20:34
And like, I know you can talk about the defensive issues and
20:36
Sanchez and all these things and like.
20:38
Oh God, Sanchez, that's a whole other headache that.
20:40
I don't even know if we can really get into but.
20:42
No, it's just. Saying that, the Chelsea attack
20:44
is concerning me more so than the defense.
20:46
We always know the defense was not good enough.
20:48
And I think we mentioned it at the beginning of the season, If
20:50
we're gonna, we need to change anything.
20:52
It's the goalkeeper and the defendants.
20:55
Yep. So.
20:56
OK, we can move on next game. Keep just real quick before we
20:59
move on. So concerning for savi owners
21:02
like yourself and Doku. Oh yeah.
21:05
Yeah, Doku was injured and also we talked about Phil folded over
21:08
the last month. He's the highest right player,
21:10
108.75 averaging 21.75. Second is Holland.
21:15
Yeah, so they're back. They're back.
21:18
And all of us, they're so stupid for not trading for foreign.
21:21
Not trading for foreign. I, I, I sent a few offers out.
21:24
I I could have just, I should have just offered them more.
21:26
I just, I just love balling. Just just.
21:31
Me too, I kept studying my shitty defenders.
21:35
Yeah. I think the biggest thing with
21:36
this by moose trade is that all of a sudden Savio, which for a
21:40
few weeks there looked like he kind of forced in a lot.
21:43
So that a fight. Yeah, yeah.
21:45
Now all of a sudden it's very grey and I've kind of gotten
21:47
burned in the last two weeks and now unless.
21:49
And I looked at a good look in the next week too, like if City
21:52
plays on Sunday, you know, and they're not in the early round
21:56
of games. Like you're not, you're not.
21:57
You just got to prep that he's not going to start, you know,
22:00
like you just got to start mentally prepping so you don't
22:02
get burned. Yep.
22:04
Because if you waited the last two weeks, you got buried
22:06
because City played later, played on Sundays or later in
22:08
the week. Both.
22:09
Both times, yeah. Or like later in the day on
22:11
Saturday when a lot of games already happened.
22:13
So you just you have to start thinking about that with the
22:14
City attack because it is getting a little crowded up
22:17
there. Just do that with my moosh.
22:20
But I will say, yeah, I mean, we'll talk about my Bush little
22:22
man waivers. Yeah.
22:23
OK, next, next game, Tottenham 1, Lester 2.
22:26
My condolences. Enzo Ange out What managers are
22:29
out there? I don't think and is the
22:31
problem. I think everyone realizes
22:32
Daniel. We know who it is.
22:33
Daniel Levy Burnham, Burn the Witch.
22:35
But it's it's, it's that and it's don't get wrong.
22:38
I still believe Levy is the problem, but he's got us.
22:40
He's a great businessman but he hasn't given any of the matches
22:44
that we've had the chance the best chance to actually succeed
22:48
in my opinion. Have you guys seen that new
22:50
Nosferatu? That new movie about Like the
22:51
Vampire? Been meaning to watch it.
22:53
What's? Good.
22:53
I just feel like Daniel Levy's like has very like Nosferatu
22:56
vamps. He's kind.
22:57
Of like a vampire he. Looks like this like evil
22:59
vampire that's up in his tower. Just like sucking the blood from
23:01
Tottenham to straining them of all their goodness.
23:04
Making so much money off that stadium fucking and it, but it's
23:06
not fucking from Tottenham games like it's a good.
23:09
Players under oh, sorry, it's no, it's.
23:12
ESPN does have a headline. Taught them to stick with Ang
23:14
so. No, he's not going nowhere.
23:17
Could you know why he's still in the cups?
23:18
Money. That's what they don't want to
23:20
do that again, what they do with Mourinho, where they fire them
23:23
for the final. I'm going to tell you this right
23:24
now. If they fired Ang, I think that
23:26
that'd be the least they paid off.
23:28
They had to fire Mourinho, they fired Conte, They had to pay
23:31
them fucking some big fucking bucks when they fire them.
23:33
So I saw. Someone plus like a meme or
23:35
something where I said the managers that.
23:38
Atop the fire, Ponte first, Mourinho second.
23:40
Fucking Nuno Espirit where his name is in 3rd with Forest.
23:44
Yeah, fucking nuts. Yeah, I know that.
23:46
Yeah, that is pretty crazy. Trust me, it's all over my feet.
23:49
A tag players under pressure, players under pressure. 2
23:53
mistakes led to both goals. I mean, I also think it's the
23:56
fact that there's been a lot of injuries, there's a lot of
23:58
issues going on. But I think that there's two
24:00
things. One is there are a lot of
24:01
injuries, yes. But two, and is not making any
24:04
sort of compromises because of the injuries.
24:06
It's like that to me is where if you are going to get rid of and
24:09
it's for that, it's not so much because you don't believe in
24:12
his. That's why we're upset.
24:13
It's like you're just not. The inability to adapt is
24:16
problematic. It's the way we all might.
24:18
It's the way we. All yeah, that's sort of is this
24:20
Bobby Cordova Reed with 18 points to assist Jamie Vardy
24:23
14.5 points. You forgot about my guy.
24:26
Belong canoes. Did I forget to put him?
24:28
16 points. Yeah, you might have forgot.
24:30
Yeah, I must have forgot. He had a great game.
24:32
He's a high young talent, but Charleston got that goal, which
24:36
is great for him. He was on waivers last week,
24:37
someone that we were interested in.
24:39
The one concern is that he came off and they're worried that
24:41
there's some sort of hamstrung issue again or groin or
24:44
something. Yeah.
24:46
So that's concerning. That's a really, that'd be a
24:48
total bummer, but you're hoping that it's just a minor thing,
24:52
so. I would probably go an 18 year
24:53
old and play up front. Yeah, I I'm not sitting here
24:56
thinking that Lesters turned the corner.
24:58
I think it's just that Tottenham's it's Tommy Boggy
25:00
team. Yeah.
25:01
I think it's Tommy Boggy team. Less how many How many bogies
25:03
you just Tottenham have, though I think you still have about a
25:06
few different teams that. No, no, I never said about that.
25:08
That's just our boggy team. I said Fulham is May United's
25:11
boggy team. Oh, baby, OK.
25:12
I don't know. I just feel like I feel like
25:14
half the league is. I feel like half the league is
25:16
Tom. Boggy and you don't do it.
25:18
And is there a team that's top them as boggy team or no one's?
25:22
Man C Man City. Yeah, that's right.
25:23
Man C get the fuck out of here, Tico. 6 minutes, got a goal with
25:28
his first touch as a Premier League player.
25:29
What's goal? There's fucking nuts in it.
25:31
Love the Premier League? Prospect to keep an eye on own
25:35
4% yes, but I will say I'm just not 100% of course not like.
25:40
And like Ishmael, sorry, hasn't quite been as good as he was for
25:43
a few weeks ago. Test starting to play well, so
25:45
yeah, but it's a prospect. That's why I said prospect sign.
25:48
Keep an eye on just in case. Yeah, I think that's fair.
25:54
Very high strong player over the last month.
25:57
Do and Bambo's so sick I can't believe anyone would trade that
26:00
guy. I aging 24.
26:05
The guy that you traded to is now on the top half of the table
26:09
after being bottom in. My defense, I got Anthony
26:15
Gordon. I'm not that mad about it.
26:17
No, you're not that mad about it.
26:18
You helped him out. You know he might still be top
26:20
like the top of the table if he didn't do that trick.
26:22
Yeah, I don't know. I think I mean, in my defence, I
26:27
had Nicholas Jackson, Savio Simenyo and you're.
26:30
Good man. And Wimbo and so for me, I
26:33
needed to get another midfielder.
26:34
So yeah. Do you think it doesn't feel
26:36
good? Doesn't feel good.
26:38
Good shout out Tico and Sharp by the way.
26:40
How's what Savio? Does he do it?
26:42
Savio. Well, he's not starting now.
26:45
But it I seem smart. For a while there he seemed,
26:48
Yeah, a lot. As they had a good year too, I
26:49
think 17 points I think got the assist for essay essay.
26:52
The essay is great that that's just the headlines about
26:55
themselves there. Yeah, I think the.
26:56
Tap one as they do essay etcetera.
27:01
There's all sorts of good ones. You can rent.
27:03
Yeah, I mean, that's kind of it. Bradford Brenbo missed a penalty
27:07
but luckily that's why he was over the line, so he got every
27:10
he wasn't. Even over the line, he was,
27:11
well, he was over the line. Technically, he was over there
27:13
in the. Soccer, yeah.
27:15
Circle. So yeah, that was, that's always
27:17
a weird one, but. In Venmo, yeah, He's just, he's
27:19
the man. Yeah, it's the man there.
27:22
Anything else to talk about Shatter?
27:23
Is he interested in you guys? He, I, he.
27:25
I can't. Quite come around and put him on
27:26
waivers. Me either.
27:27
I just can't quite. I mean, he's getting to the
27:30
point though, where you. Can't really ignore him anymore.
27:32
Yeah, but I agree. But I think that concussion
27:35
thing might leave from all favourites.
27:36
One more week for me. Those are just a couple.
27:38
We always knock himself out, OK next time Villa won West Ham
27:43
one. Ming's bad luck continues.
27:45
How long did he play before he came?
27:46
Went down as an injury. That was just.
27:47
Hard to watch. And it was hard to watch.
27:49
He was crying. He looked like in so much pain.
27:51
But you know. Mattson replaced him.
27:54
Can both Ding and Mattson play together?
27:56
I guess we'll we'll see. I mean, I don't, I don't think
27:58
that's the norm. I think there's, I think West
28:00
Ham might or Villa might go in for a center back.
28:02
I heard. I heard they actually looked.
28:03
With Zasi from Chelsea, that'd be interesting.
28:05
Wamba Sock AT 2.25 points. You know who could really use
28:08
Wamba Socka right now? Man United.
28:11
Yeah. Emerson .25 points so.
28:13
West Ham played with the back three and wing backs, and
28:18
Emerson scored a goal from across from Wamba Socka.
28:20
I'm pretty sure, or not from Wamba Socka, but a from play
28:22
that Wamba Socka was involved in on the other side.
28:25
So it is kind of interesting. Like that wingback.
28:27
That wingback formation immediately makes those
28:30
offenders almost elite. Yeah.
28:32
Not always the case, but like if you're a semi decent team and we
28:35
have wingbacks, those wingbacks are pretty damn good.
28:37
I think whoever go Wampa soccer, wherever they're going, where
28:40
are they going, they're about to be rewarded heavily.
28:43
That's yeah, that's it's going to be interesting to see if
28:48
United gets, we're going to talk about next.
28:50
But if United gets one of that wingback that they're going for
28:53
it, it's going to be interesting to see if he can generate.
28:55
He can be like a big player. He's a young kid.
28:57
Yeah, Liam Bailey started again and over the he started through
29:02
the last four games and he's averaging 12.9, so maybe
29:05
something there. He's, I told you, he's back.
29:08
Baby. And he's on waivers in some
29:09
leagues. Because everyone gave up on him.
29:12
OK, so he scored 16.7513 point 52.5, but he only played 4
29:16
minutes that game, so his last three starts, yeah.
29:19
Then 8.5 against that in the last game.
29:21
OK. I I added him after his two
29:23
stars. Then he got benched.
29:24
I was like, oh, this guy's done again.
29:25
I dropped him. Now he's back starting.
29:29
I might pick. I might put in a claim right
29:30
now. Yeah.
29:32
How much fab you put it down? How much fab you put it down?
29:35
I don't need to tell you. You've already got nine.
29:37
No, no, no. No, I have lost.
29:39
I have 4I used ones I used. I used three fab on.
29:43
I forget now, some of that already dropped.
29:46
Oh, I think if anyone should get the you know how to use your fab
29:52
and how not to use your fab should look at how Keith did it
29:55
this season. 61 on Roger. You dropped a lot.
29:57
You do. You dropped a lot.
29:59
Spent a lot of what? Who do I spend a lot of money
30:01
on? Roger.
30:02
Roger. Yeah.
30:04
I spent a lot of money on Roger and he got injured.
30:06
What? What am I going to do?
30:07
What, you spent too much? Half of your budget?
30:11
Very much, yeah. But the what?
30:12
I have to just survive another week.
30:13
Bro I think you lost it. I don't think you understand the
30:15
value of FAB. OK, if you have any fab leftover
30:18
the end of the season then you're a loser.
30:21
I'm just what I'll just spend a little bit.
30:23
On the last that's what I'm saying like when you need a
30:25
player at the end of the season, there's a few KS left.
30:28
Keith, how about you guys 50 Fab, now you're first place.
30:33
Yeah, I took a gamble and it didn't pay off.
30:35
I got to live with my own choice.
30:36
I got to live with my choices, you know?
30:37
Well. To be fair to my stuff on Enzo,
30:39
this is not hindsight. We told you at the time it was a
30:41
bad decision. It was a good, it was a good
30:47
decision that just there was a bad.
30:49
What was bad was that he got in the.
30:51
Execution. No, the the Roger injury, we
30:53
will never know. It could have been a great
30:55
decision. If you didn't get injured, that
30:56
would that might have been an amazing decision.
30:58
That doesn't get injured. I don't.
30:59
He was a he was a top 20 player last year.
31:01
You you get a top 20 player, 51 Fab.
31:03
I would happily I, I think, I think.
31:05
We should ask like draws aside because I remember when Ryan was
31:10
over and he said he sold Neto for four fab like.
31:13
Four, I was like, I would haunted him.
31:16
So you're saying full fab for Netzo, but you're going to spend
31:19
51 fab on? It's all about context.
31:21
I, I have this guy, the context. No, no regrets.
31:24
My regrets are all regrets of hindsight.
31:26
So which? Which can't be regrets.
31:27
No regrets. OK, good.
31:30
No rag UPS next game. Fulham 0, United 1 and Martinez
31:35
got a goal off a deflection 21.25 points.
31:38
I don't even know if that should have been credited to it.
31:40
Was that on target? So fucking I mean the deflection
31:43
happened so close to him I don't even know if you get claims.
31:46
That's on target, no? I just think, yeah, me and I
31:50
didn't look convincing, if I could be honest.
31:54
Didn't look convincing, maybe I did.
31:56
No, and I mean. What?
31:57
They've won five, They last 6. Yeah, games, but that's the
32:00
thing. But that's.
32:01
Pipping over the cocks that they.
32:02
Kind of suck so. Exactly.
32:04
Like, it's like how we thought Wolves play really well, but
32:07
they were losing, you know what I mean?
32:08
Yeah, exactly. Anderson 11.5 points for a full
32:12
2 double S to the games 48% own. I think that's a good shout.
32:17
Anything else? You what's his name?
32:20
Bruno Fernandez playing in that deeper role which I told you I
32:23
was concerned about and I'm not sure if it's gonna happen all
32:26
the time. I'm almost now starting to hope
32:27
that Garnacho goes so that Fernandez is like guaranteed one
32:31
of the higher spots. What do you guys think about
32:33
those rumors about Garnacho leaving for 60 mil?
32:37
60 mil seems a little high. 16 mil seems high.
32:40
I think he's a good player. I don't think he's worth 60
32:43
million. I mean, I think you're, you're
32:44
buying him on the the chance that he's going to get improved.
32:46
He's only 20, he's only 20. But a lot of the good things
32:50
that has happened at United or he's been a part of in the last.
32:53
How much did they buy Mamouche for?
32:56
See. That's a good question.
32:58
I don't know exactly. Just want to compare that.
33:01
But like what? What does that have to do with?
33:04
Well, I'm just going by comparable transfer fees, you
33:07
know what I mean? Is it inflated in the premature,
33:10
which it usually is, Like Mamouche?
33:11
I've seen him and he actually plays pretty bloody well. 75
33:15
million USDA. Bloody hell.
33:18
So that's what, the same price? Would you rather mamouche or
33:21
would you rather have gone Nacho?
33:23
I think for the difference between Mamouche as he comes
33:25
into the league, he paid 75,000,000 for him and you don't
33:27
know if he's going to be able to cut it in that league.
33:29
Garnacho, he's young, but he's proven that he can do it in the
33:32
in the Premier League, so I think 60 million doesn't seem
33:34
that. Bad of a price tag for him.
33:36
And I think that I think that United would hold on to him if
33:39
they would the United would want more for them if they wasn't
33:42
that they were desperate for cash.
33:43
I think I think people, I think they're under playing how
33:45
desperate they are for cash. There was an article that came
33:47
out on the athletic and I think the title was United have been
33:52
like, it's something that I'm I'm in a butcher, but it's so
33:54
funny the way it was written. It was like they're, they're,
33:58
they're a Europa League team on a Champions League budget,
34:02
essentially. Like they're like, the way that
34:04
they, they're spending money, like they're Champions League
34:05
club, but in reality they're, they're a Europa League club.
34:09
So, yeah, yeah. Did you guys talk about Harry
34:11
Maguire or you just gonna disrespect him like that,
34:14
leaving him up? What did he do?
34:15
What did he do? I mean, we've talked about we've
34:17
talked about him in the last few with last few episodes.
34:18
He had another good game 14. Solid fan clean.
34:22
She'd do this. Did this.
34:24
Did this. Yeah.
34:25
Meat, potatoes did this. That's what we fucked.
34:27
Good old Dudley Dudley Jersey meat potatoes just just had
34:31
people being the people. The most expensive defender in
34:34
the world and what he does is fucking head the fucking boat.
34:38
Sometimes all that's all you need.
34:39
You're talking about your guy. Here we go.
34:41
Why have you picked him up yet, by the way?
34:42
You just talked about him. Just talked about him, No, yeah.
34:44
Just you. Just.
34:45
Shut the fuck up then. I'm helping for people who are
34:47
like in the fighting music. He's like, he's like, he's like.
34:51
A keyboard warrior. He's like, just, he doesn't
34:53
actually do. They're saying he just wants to.
34:55
Talk about. It just kind of check.
34:57
Don't be about it, talk about it.
35:00
Yeah, Fulham side me also throw with another dad To me, if he's
35:05
not showing a goal or an assist, he's horrible.
35:08
He's so he's so hold on to him. He's so he just doesn't seem
35:11
like he's that interested in the games that he's playing in.
35:14
Don't give up, Keith. Don't give up, Keith.
35:16
You you worked hard for that. That worked hard for that deal.
35:18
I did right. But then also I felt I feel
35:21
better dropping because Matt sells lead in five goals this
35:23
week. So.
35:24
So at least I can be like, yeah, yeah.
35:27
Did you guys see Lisandro Martinez and what was it their
35:31
beef on the sham with Adam Troy? Nice.
35:37
No, that's so funny that what was the beef so tough because.
35:40
Ferrari would squash him like a bug.
35:43
Bro because the first match up they had some stuff going on.
35:45
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then Tory.
35:47
Posted a picture of like him walking away and the Martinez on
35:49
the floor and then Martinez came back in and was like keep going
35:53
to the gym or something like that.
35:55
Who me? Needless Larry's.
35:56
Who? It's really.
35:57
Fucking petty, probably honest, I love.
35:59
It Ferrari came on though, but it was funny.
36:02
Well, there was an injury of her fault.
36:03
Who was it that injured? It was Harry Wilson I think.
36:07
I think he got injured, which is not good.
36:09
Yeah. So that's sad.
36:09
He's been, he's been having a really good last few games.
36:12
He's owned by Nate, though, so I I feel less bad because that's
36:16
just one less play that Nate has to dominate.
36:18
OK, that is it for games. Should we get into some transfer
36:21
rumors? Yeah, this could be interesting.
36:24
This one is the juiciest one to me and it's United considering a
36:26
lone move for Christopher and Cuckoo, good or bad.
36:30
Good, good. I think this could be really
36:32
good. For this could be really good.
36:33
How do you feel about as a United fan?
36:36
Would you be excited about this? Absolutely.
36:38
I like the cuckoos going in last year.
36:40
He provides, you know, an option because you've got to.
36:46
You've got to think though, like if you think about some of the
36:48
past players may and I have had like this could be actually one
36:51
that could work out because you really think about it.
36:53
Work horse. I think he's better than Xoxi
36:55
and Hoyland and then who, Fred? He's better than fucking
36:59
Casamero in the middle. OK, But I'm saying that I think
37:03
that the biggest, the reason why I think this is a good move is
37:05
because I don't think in cuckoo players a nine.
37:06
I think in cuckoo players, the 10 and the 10 underneath.
37:09
But I think he could step in and step into the 9 like in moments
37:13
and play higher up if he needs to, if like if Hoiley drops in a
37:16
little bit or if whoever's playing that role and I think it
37:18
gives would give them a lot of versatility.
37:20
I'm all in, I'm all into, I'm very into this.
37:22
And that's someone who like. Obviously wishes that it would
37:25
have worked out for him at. Chelsea and it's just clearly is
37:27
it OK next one United put in 30 million build for for Leche left
37:31
wing back Dorgu. Yeah, Dorgu sounds like a Star
37:34
Wars character in him. It does, yeah.
37:36
I didn't think about that until you just said it.
37:38
It's toggle toggle from the Swamp planet from the Boggle
37:43
from the Daggle bus system toggle.
37:47
Young. I don't know.
37:47
Anything about him, but I think I think any sort of wing back
37:50
that actually comes in and plays that position, like actually
37:53
plays that position because I don't have anyone that actually
37:55
is a left wing back. I think would be an upgrade for
37:57
them and could be interesting because we was talking.
37:59
About also an that will be an Ameren player, yeah, so.
38:03
So yeah, I'm into that too. If that happens.
38:05
Villa in for Villa, real center back 4th.
38:07
I remember this guy. He was like, yeah, he's an
38:09
experts player. Did he like get good?
38:12
He went to Villa Villarreal and won a cup in his first season.
38:16
They that's what all Tom Blaze do when they leave.
38:17
Told them they win, they go win somewhere at all.
38:20
Fucking. Not Hurricane.
38:23
Not yeah, not yet. He's gonna probably win a couple
38:26
of trophies this season mate. Chelsea wants for owner star.
38:30
Chelsea also wants like a billion other players they want
38:32
that tells from Bayern that apparently they're one of the
38:36
names after Garnacho too, really, which is interesting.
38:40
I actually think cuz he would be like cuz right now Mudrick is
38:42
like in no man's land, like who knows what's going on with him?
38:45
So Chelsea are a little light on the left wing, but they're also
38:49
light in seven mid. So it's a whole, it's just
38:50
ridiculous that they're going after him and not going after
38:53
another midfielder. But if there was a bit of a left
38:56
wing to go after I I wouldn't be that mad at people like pissed
38:58
like Chelsea events do not want him.
38:59
But I actually think it wouldn't be that bad of a of an option
39:02
personally. I don't.
39:04
I just think he got so many players.
39:05
I think he should be able to make it work, what he's got.
39:08
Yeah, to be honest. Yeah, I know.
39:10
You're saying the Holovic to the Prem team.
39:12
I haven't heard this at all. Where did you who?
39:13
Did you? Who's on Sky Sports?
39:15
Who did you hear that? What team would be interested
39:17
in? It didn't say, it just said that
39:19
there was a couple teams in the Premiership that had asked about
39:21
Vlavic. If you really think about it,
39:24
there's only really two teams that Arsenal, Arsenal and Man
39:28
United. Man, this seems like he seems
39:29
like a Man United player to me. Yeah, so he's gonna some of The
39:32
Who they pay a lot of money for and underperforms.
39:34
Exactly. I wonder how much of that is You
39:37
bet. Just trying to drum up interest
39:38
for him. He probably drumming up interest
39:40
because especially it's the Premier League.
39:42
Like come on, give me your money.
39:43
Let me feel the you know what I mean.
39:45
Jiao Felix wasn't in this match day squad for Chelsea this
39:48
weekend cuz he had a, he went, went home due to a bereavement,
39:51
like a death of the family. Hope everything's good there.
39:53
I've also heard rumors that Villa's interested in him and
39:56
that's another one that could work.
39:58
Like I think some of these players at Chelsea, it's like go
40:00
elsewhere and like fly, like, you know, like release you into
40:03
the wild and you can fly and live a good life elsewhere.
40:06
Else, you know, be a be a Peacock and fly.
40:08
Yeah, John Duran to somewhere. No, I ain't going nowhere.
40:12
Ain't going nowhere. He, Emery's already said he he's
40:14
not gonna lose their own. You know what?
40:16
I I heard someone say this. I think it was Alan Shearer and
40:20
Gary Lineker. Will they ever bring back the
40:22
442 formation? You know what I mean?
40:24
Where you have two actually good Center for boys playing up
40:27
front, a big one and a small 1, you know, playoff each other.
40:29
I don't think it would ever be a 442.
40:31
I think you could play a 352. I think there's just that the
40:34
the 442 is just there's so much out on the wings that you know
40:37
what I mean? Because like what you're gonna
40:39
have AI? Don't know, just feels like.
40:40
Still love that feels. Lopsided to me now when you do a
40:43
442 in the modern game, how much is needed in the middle and you
40:47
have so much out wide. You have a right back and a
40:49
right winger, left back and a left winger.
40:51
You have 4 players playing in these outside positions.
40:54
You're only going to have two defenders and there's two
40:56
midfielders and where they're going to link to, I don't know I
40:58
feel like I'm just. There's positions where you can
41:00
have two strikers, but I. Don't think A442 is up.
41:02
I'd love the 442 man. I mean, Emil Heskey, Michael
41:05
Owen, like the pier, Pierre Crouch.
41:08
She made the phone and. Next to each other like, you
41:11
know, front and back. Either either all because you
41:13
can play the two that play off each other, or you play the one
41:16
that plays in front that just flicks on balls.
41:18
You know what I mean? Like the pier?
41:19
Like the Emile Husky? Luke Wayne Rooney.
41:21
So yeah, Real Madrid. Tried playing it with Vineen and
41:24
Bobby up top. None of them are at 9.
41:26
It doesn't look good, man. Well.
41:28
Because because none of them are annoying.
41:30
They're not, but I'm just saying it's real.
41:32
Madrid's just trying to fit in this, in my opinion, Real
41:35
Madrid's trying to fit all their best players in instead of
41:38
they're letting the players dictate how they play football
41:40
when it should be the the team that dictates how that's.
41:42
Enchiladas that's been enchiladas superpower always is
41:45
that he figures out how to get everyone to play together in a
41:48
way that that works, you know, and so right now it's he's
41:51
literally has like an impossible task, but he's making it work.
41:54
OK, let's, let's, let's move to waivers where we're running this
41:56
a long episode. First one.
41:58
On the list is he Chan Wong for wolves only 25% of leagues
42:03
strand Larson went down with an injury and it looked muscular
42:07
and it feels like it's going to be a little while.
42:08
So I think he Chan could. Start.
42:10
Get those starts. And he's proven to be a solid if
42:13
streaky player and could be a sneaky pick up.
42:16
I think especially if you're someone, maybe you don't have a
42:18
lot of fab like somebody here or you're just low in the waiver
42:23
priority, I don't think a lot of people are going to be out
42:25
looking out for him. And I think he's probably going
42:26
to be starting games for Wolves and Wolves scores goals.
42:28
They let in a lot of goals, but they score goals.
42:30
Yeah. So I think I think that's a
42:32
sticky one. We just talked about him,
42:34
Christopher and Cuckoo for for Chelsea right now, 47% owned
42:37
rumors of a move away from Chelsea and it's like that rumor
42:41
to United. It's so it's a very much a
42:43
speculative ad because he doesn't bring you any value
42:45
whatsoever right now. But if he does go to United?
42:48
I think there's that if would be like a huge upside.
42:52
And I think it's failures that Chelsea are more positional than
42:55
anything else and you can potentially thrive as one of the
42:57
two never 10s behind a striker. Yeah, he just got unfortunate
43:00
Chelsea. He got injured at the wrong
43:01
times it. Is what it is, but I think that
43:03
if he does get united. That's, I mean, that's like like
43:06
a like a 51 fab signing. Like you're talking like huge,
43:12
huge, huge upset. Very high potential.
43:13
You pull. Yeah, high potential, but it
43:15
should only be like 10 to 15. Fab.
43:17
OK. I think I just turned out in a
43:19
bit. OK, Next one, Omar Mamoosh, we
43:21
talked about he's only owning 8% as of yesterday.
43:24
He's probably it's already up way more.
43:26
Yeah. You know, I think in a lot of
43:27
really he's, you know, new players to the league, there's
43:31
always gonna be like a lot of hype and speculation and and
43:35
some a lot of times they don't live up to that.
43:36
But, you know, like, look at Muhammad kudos last year.
43:39
Like that one was a huge win for anyone who picked him up in
43:41
January. But I'm just, yeah, I think that
43:45
in most leagues that he was able to be picked up and most good
43:49
leagues, someone grabbed them just because there's there's
43:50
such that excitement. But I think that there is like
43:54
I'm a little, I'm a little nervous.
43:56
We talked about how good he looked.
43:57
And I think there's this point that doesn't necessarily
43:59
translate into fantasy, didn't translate into fantasy points.
44:01
It doesn't mean it necessarily will translate into fantasy
44:03
points. And the other concern is that
44:05
Pep is notoriously fickle with new signings.
44:07
And so it wouldn't shock me for him to throw him in this game,
44:10
then not start a next game and not start in the game after and
44:12
then throw him in again. And so it's not like you're
44:14
locking in like a guy who's going to be guaranteed starts
44:16
every week. We just don't know.
44:19
And that's what I was. Just there's no, there's no road
44:22
map for pet. That's what I'd say.
44:24
And it's also generally signings not done, always big signings,
44:28
you know what I mean? They don't always do well.
44:30
So, so I think he's men, see. Yeah, I think that my my advice
44:34
on him would be don't drop anyone too good to pick him up
44:38
on a speculative. I think that I think that's
44:40
where you're going to find issues If you get I mean, you
44:42
don't really have much strength on your bench, great.
44:45
But if you're, if you're dropping like a really
44:47
established starter, you know. And thumb and thumb.
44:52
Yeah, yeah, definitely don't do that.
44:55
Next name on the. List only 43% of leagues is
44:58
Julio and Cecil. He's just made the switch to
45:01
Ipswich for Brighton. Big move.
45:03
Yeah, it's a good move. Just means more playing time for
45:06
him. And he's shown some real flashes
45:07
in the past, you know, you know, there's a good player in there.
45:11
And also just because Mids is really tough right now, there's
45:13
not, and he's kind of one of those, he's a classified as a
45:16
mid that really is a very attacking player.
45:18
So there's a lot of chance for really good returns there.
45:21
And also they play Southampton this coming week, which is the
45:25
game you want to start him. So if he starts, which he hasn't
45:28
started a game for the NBA, he just came in and played 10
45:31
minutes in the last game because he just got transferred to the
45:32
team. I'm assuming with a full week's
45:34
rest, he's gonna probably start in a full week training with
45:37
Ipswich. He's probably gonna start like
45:39
you don't bring him in not to start.
45:41
So I think with him and the Southampton that plays
45:44
Southampton, I think this is a great spot start for Ed Sousa
45:47
this week. Big show, big show.
45:49
I think that he was a good player at Bryant.
45:51
Just don't think he got the games.
45:53
And the figure is. Yeah, and his injuries and
45:56
Ipswich, they, they, you know what?
45:57
They're throwing their dice out there, man, and then making the
46:00
gamble pig. And obviously they're probably
46:02
going to stop him because they think that he has the capability
46:05
to try to keep him up. So we'll see.
46:07
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I actually think that's a good
46:10
one. He's definitely someone I think
46:11
the only thing wait, is he a forward?
46:13
I thought he's a mid. He's a mid yeah yeah.
46:15
So I think that's what also makes him really exciting cuz
46:17
mids are just tough, right? Yeah, OK.
46:18
Next player Jim Bendrick, defender 13% of league
46:21
Southampton feels gross. It does.
46:25
It sucks. Every time I said it, I was
46:27
like, oh, but he's doing. It you're taking a dive into a
46:30
muddy pond, but you just keep scoring points, even on a rough
46:34
team, it seems like to me just seems like a ticking time bomb.
46:36
Like the second you pick him up and play him, he's got a weak.
46:39
Negative, but you can't argue with the points.
46:41
You can't argue with results. I mean the amount of times that
46:44
I've tried to argue against results and gotten burned.
46:47
Yeah, yeah, we all have, man. We all have.
46:49
Yeah, so. Two bad games he had the last
46:51
like month and a half is when they got slot like slot 50.
46:56
Yeah. Besides that is destroying
46:57
double digits. Yeah, I don't think so.
47:00
I mean. There is this and there he is 1.
47:03
The new coach has definitely tried to solidify them
47:06
defensively. He still doesn't have a win, but
47:07
like, they've looked a little better since the new coach has
47:09
come in. So yes, still.
47:11
But I mean, they're hopeless. They're gonna go down.
47:13
But I I don't think that I don't think they're as bad as they
47:16
were. No, that's what I'm saying.
47:19
OK, last time on the list, my guy Bilal Alkanus, midfielder
47:23
out in 15% of leagues. Why?
47:25
Because he got a good goal on the weekend.
47:27
He's put together a few decent performances in a row now.
47:29
I think he's like 8.510 and then 16 so.
47:32
What's his average take off? I want to hear that doesn't
47:35
matter. I want to hear what his average
47:36
is in the last five games. Take off No.
47:38
No, just no, no, no, no, I know. Just do some average.
47:41
He's beat you. Beat you, Tweak.
47:44
Yeah. And so you, I mean 5.8, but when
47:48
we look at it, let's see 15 and a half, ten and a half, 847 and
47:52
a half. So again, these are all games
47:53
that they lost. Station.
47:55
Station. Yeah, they're yeah.
47:57
That's good. That's good.
47:59
You know, I think this is my kind of deeper analysis.
48:01
I think that on the ball he looks really good.
48:03
He looks really exciting. He passes the odd test well.
48:05
I'm concerned is he seems to get a little bit lost in games and
48:07
kind of disappears and isn't like when you look at like a
48:10
Bruno Fernandez, like when he makes a pass, he's immediately
48:14
running up the field and trying to get into a scoring position
48:16
or immediately then trying to assist.
48:17
When I watch the suit, he makes a really nice pass and he kind
48:20
of it seems like he's just kind of cruising back after that
48:22
cruising forward. He doesn't quite have that like
48:24
aggressive thing. And I think that's something you
48:25
can coach, but I think that's something that's a little
48:28
concerning and that is where I think it's potential for him to
48:30
like get those really bad games. So it's like 2 point games.
48:33
Yeah, you know, and it is Lester.
48:36
Yeah, so that's not like you're guaranteed anything there.
48:38
I think the one thing with him is that they play Everton next
48:41
and I think the way Everton's been playing is absorbing
48:43
pressure and then breaking on the counter.
48:45
So if Lester this is a chance for it, maybe he can get a lot
48:48
of key. Passes and stop target and
48:50
things like that. So I think there is some value
48:52
there. So and that's it.
48:53
That's where we. Lovely.
48:54
There was a lot of waivers this week.
48:56
Probably. Be honest.
48:57
There's some, I mean there is actually good ones.
48:58
I think that's it's been. Rough.
49:00
It's been rough for a while and I thought there's actually some
49:02
ones we're talking. About and I think we still got a
49:04
few days left in the transfer window, so I think there'll
49:06
still be a few more to come. Yeah, it could be exciting next
49:10
week. We could have some fun stuff to
49:11
talk about. Oh, this has been episode 75,
49:14
