In short

A heated debate over a VAR decision in Arsenal’s 1-0 win (a late corner involving goalkeeper David Raya) that West Ham fans felt should have gone the other way, with arguments about whether the foul was “clear and obvious,” consistency of officiating, and whether the law should allow play to continue when multiple fouls occur in the same box. The panel also reviews Arsenal’s match performance and makes broader Premier League/European race predictions, plus discussion of Chelsea managerial rumors.

Guests

No guest names or distinct guest backgrounds are provided in the transcript. The panel appears to be a regular multi-person show (speakers include Theo, Tom, and Reeve), but their footballing credentials/backgrounds are not stated.

Key claims

  • The Raya incident was a foul in isolation, but the panel argues VAR should consider the wider sequence and that isolating one moment is unfair.
  • Arsenal are accused of “pioneering” corner tactics that crowd/impede goalkeepers, and the refereeing/VAR treatment is framed as inconsistent across the season.
  • The decision took “five minutes” because it was high-impact, not because it was unclear.

Notable examples

  • References to Arsenal set-piece crowding across multiple matches (vs Man United, Man City, Chelsea, and a Saliba-related incident).
  • Mentions of other VAR controversies (e.g., Brentford’s offside goal not drawing lines; a “Sharder” penalty appeal vs Brentford).
  • Arsenal tactical discussion: Ben White injured; Rice used at right back; Arteta later corrected at half-time; praise for Odegaard and Raya’s saves.

What do you mean it's not fair? Ah, look at him. Theo's currently replying to mean tweets about Arsenal because Arsenal 1-0 on the... I think. It's not that it's dreams, boys. Well done. I hope you're happy. I am happy. Oh, what did it cost you?

1:10Can I say that? The integrity of the sport. I think that game was the most stressed I've ever been watching a football match. Yeah. Genuinely. From the excitement of going 1-0 up to then thinking we've lost it to then thinking then we've done it again. Like that was... And also, do you know what it felt like when that goal went in? You know how we've always talked about how... You're talking about the Callum Wilson one, right? Bottle jobs and like, you've done it again. Yeah. That was the feeling. I mean, at that point, at that point, the title wouldn't necessarily be over. No, but it felt it.

1:41It really did feel it. And then obviously, the game to the correct decision and, you know, justice was served ultimately, wasn't it? We have two people on the panel that think it was... Like a murder has been put away. It was the correct decision though. What are we talking about, right? If, yeah, I mean... Do you think it was a foul, Tom? I think in isolation, I can see why it would be given, but with what was going on, I thought, I think it's ridiculous. And by the way, Arsenal are the pioneers of that this season. All season, we've had to endure this bullshit right from Arsenal. They've literally started this.

2:13Don't get me wrong, other teams do it as well. Every corner now, the goalie gets crowded. They're pulling. It happens every single game. Wait, wait, I'm not finished. Every single week it happens. And Arsenal were the first teams to do it on the first day of the season against Man United and it was allowed. And it's continued against Man City. They've done it the game against Chelsea. They've done it in multiple games this season over and over again. Well, held the keeper's arm down. Yes, Arsenal have done this. Oh, he's lying. It's happened over 10 on time. Show us what it's happened then. I can.

2:47Was it the Saliba one? Absolutely. You want to show us the Saliba screenshot? Saliba's done it. So, do you only see the screenshot? Do you watch the full video of that? No, I can see the full video of it. Whilst you're bringing it up, whilst you're bringing it up, I find it quite funny because the arm that's going across the keeper, it's actually getting pulled He's a personal player. He doesn't affect the goalkeeper. His arm is a cross. He doesn't affect. Ray is one of the best in the league. Tadibo is literally pulling Ryan down. And Pablo has got his arm on it. Pablo is only there because he's getting pulled by two Arsenal players.

3:17There's someone on the other side of that. I fucking hate this. All this. There's so many fouls going on. And they want to isolate one. That's how the refereeing works, Tom. To give a penalty then? Why don't they give a penalty? Well, if you watch matches today, you'd understand why they haven't given a penalty. And Tom, you can explain. Reeve, you can explain. Listen to a referee. Yeah, there you go. Again, fear not thinking of who's off. By the way, the analyst is the same guy who wants no one in the six yard. Sorry, you don't need to be rude there. Is this the same? I don't need to listen to what the match is today.

3:42Because they had a referee on, mate. I don't give a fuck what the referee said. I can see my own noise. Okay, angry man. You don't give a fuck what the referee literally explained why. They broke it down and explained why it wasn't given. I know what they'll say. So the rules. I know what they'll probably say because they're saying that's first. That wasn't fair. That's not what they said. That's literally not what they said. Is this the same guy who didn't want people in the six-yard box? Is this the guy who says it's proposed not in the six-yard box from a corner? I'm just trying to show you all the integrity.

4:08The reason why no other foul is given or, you know, it's actually isolated as a foul on Raya is because that is where the main focus of the play is happening. That makes no sense to me. No, no, no. No, so because that is the epicentre of what is actually happening in the game, every other foul is irrelevant at that point because you give the foul and then Arsenal have a free kick. Right, so if off the ball, Deca Rice would have fly kicked someone in the head, that's just allowed. Well, that's assault. That's a bit different. I don't know the answer to that one, but the reason why the other tussling and wrestling in the box hasn't been given is because that is...

4:46No, no, no, no. That is not tussling. No, no, no. It's only fouls if it's against Arsenal. That's not the case. Declan Royce was rugby tackling Mavropanos. Trossard's got, I can't remember who it was. Boys, are we really going to sit here and talk about that grappling doesn't happen in every single foot match? Are we not going to have the ball? Yeah, but this is different, Tom. Take your anti-Arsenal agenda away from it right now, okay? Because ultimately, right? Why, though? Because they've got more of an advantage. But guys, guys. So why do they also get protected more? They can use their fucking arms, for one.

5:17Yeah, but I know he's not been able to do that. It's bad goalkeeping. Oh, my God, Reeve, it's bad. He hasn't affected him He can't grasp the wall Honestly The fact that you guys Are the pioneers of doing this Gabriel All he does He's go around kicking people And pulling them down But this is not what we're on about Tom And then he's the first To fucking flop over Tom it's not what we're on about though It's so frustrating To basically I don't think I understand What we're talking about Okay and I don't know So I was talking You interrupted me So I'm going to do the same to you We were talking And you tried to interrupt Actually that's wrong If you go back and watch it I was talking You both interrupted me If you want to play that fucking game even cry about it, we will.

5:50You were doing your listening, we were talking about how Arsenal do not do that. That is an isolated foul. We're not saying that Arsenal don't grapple and do this and that. Every team does that. You punched Vultemada in the face. Okay, irrelevant. Not irrelevant. Same team, got away with it. No, what are we doing? Oh, what do you mean what are we doing? No, but we can go around in circles, but the reason why that was given as an Arsenal freaking because it is a foul and it is a foul. The point is, again, in isolation, I can see why that was given as a foul, right? but why hasn't it been given all season against Arsenal?

6:22That's not our fault for lack of consistency I'm not saying that if I'm an Arsenal fan I'd be pissing myself going but I'd be going yeah we fucking got away it's hilarious but I think it's the it's the way now now suddenly you want to defend the referees but you think it is a foul I'm in the middle with it do you not think I'm in the middle with it I think it's really soft we moan about VAR and referees all season about how inconsistent they are and they get decisions wrong and sometimes they get every team as that decisions go against and for them we all know that Newcastle have Arsenal have West Brom haven't but this is relegated West Ham Lou one sec every team gets decision for and against ultimately that's how it happens right but are we not talking about they've actually got this one right I don't think they so why is this the reason why this incident has blown up once again is because of how decisive it has costed West Ham and Arsenal how the impact of the impact of the decision and second of all because it is Arsenal that is why it's blown up and I'm not no no no that is true because you look at isolated instances with Manchester City this season.

7:22Sharda, that should have been a penalty. Yeah. That should have been a penalty. Gabriel shouldn't have even been playing. Can I respond to this briefly? And this is an avant-garde Arsenal, but the reason I'm mostly annoyed about this is you have a team that's A, fighting for the title and a team that B is also fighting. Do you know that's why it's important for them to get it correct? Let me finish. Let me finish. Let me finish. You have a team who's fighting for the title, a team that's fighting for relegation. Can we understand what that means? On this corner, the final kick of the game. Yeah, so they need to get the decision correct.

7:48You don't like interrupting, Theo. So let's just sit down. Why don't you say that to Reeve when you did exactly the same? Literally, he just did. You were too busy doing your list. Anyways, I've lost my train of thought now because he interrupted very much. Anyways, this is what football's about. It comes down to a final corner. Someone's fighting for the title. Someone's fighting to survive in the league. And we have a goal. Look, it could go anywhere. There's like 11 fouls there. It's called fucking a bit of passion and fighting for something. And then, oh no, Vars get involved and fucking relegate West Ham.

8:16Which, fuck all Arsenal stuff. You just relegate West Ham over this. That's not relegated West Ham. Come on now. It basically is relegated. And do you think that's a big enough foul to relegate West Ham? I don't think so. I think that's absolutely... Do you think they should be there and say, do you know what? Can I ask you a question? Do you think something is clear and obvious if it takes five minutes to decide whether it's a foul? They were just taking so long to get it correct, though. That was the whole point. But it shouldn't take that long to get it correct. If it's such a foul, Jesus. Yeah, but we argue...

8:41If you're telling me, if this referee, this fucking magical referee on Masters of the Day who's like amazing. He's saying that it only matters around the goalie so that all the other fouls don't matter. Why do they take five minutes if it's so obvious? Do you not think it took that long because of how big the decision was? Yeah, exactly that. Oh my God. If a decision is that clear, why does it take five minutes? It wouldn't take me five minutes. Would you rather they got it wrong until it only took 30 seconds? They got it wrong. I'd rather... What? It was a foul. I think it was a foul. One by one.

9:09One by one. There's five fouls in there. I don't know if it is. Theo, was it a foul? It's 100 % a foul. I don't know what the one best is. Lewis? That isolated incident's a foul. No, no. Is it a foul? Did they get it correct? No, it's not as simple as that, Theo. That isolated incident, you could say it's a foul, but there's also four other fouls that happened just before it. I'm not in it. We tried to go. Exactly. That's why I don't need it to foul. But I think the argument is there's an issue with the law there. It's like you're not listening, actually. Anyone but yourself. We've explained why they're irrelevant.

9:34Theo, you only hear what you want to hear. In my opinion, I don't care about that. In my opinion, we're talking about that. We don't care about that. But that's an issue with the law of the game, though. Yeah, exactly that. That's my opinion. Reeve, Reeve, Reeve, Reeve, the fouls prior to the Raya incident led to the Raya incident. Literally. Pablo's only there because he's getting dragged there. Yeah, but Taddebo's pulling his arm down as well. He's literally pulling his shirt. It's too foul. I mean, Hermansen comes in and basically like fucking wipes him out. Hand on heart, do you think that's why he didn't catch the ball?

10:03Do you honestly think that's why that stopped him catching the ball? I think David Wright... Or do you think he made a meal of it? I think David Wright's that good at catching crosses that yeah, obviously it was impeded. Well, I don't agree with that. Do you think this is a part of a wider football issue of how we're handling defending and attacking But it is. It is. That's what the game's become though. The reason it wound me up so much, right, is we've had to deal with this all fucking season, right? Watching this fucking anti-football bullshit that Arsenal want to give out every week with the set pieces.

10:30And now, suddenly in such an important moment, that isn't half as bad as all the shit we've had to deal with. And now it's suddenly what a great decision from the referee we're talking about two different things here you're talking about players jostling and grappling in the box whereas this is that we all know keepers are protected we all know that and think how week in but they haven't been all season yes they have not against you they haven't yes they have Tom that's just an agenda you've got week in week out referees call fouls on goalkeepers every week but things don't get brought up because they don't lead to certain goals for these big moments fouls on keeper happen every week by the way far less than what we saw at the weekend.

11:09Far less. So why are we pretending like keepers aren't protected? Who's saying they're not? We're saying it happened, all this anti-football agenda every single week. We see this, this, that. Arsenal do this, Arsenal do that. But every single week, every single team gets fouls on the goalie from far less. Not as much as Arsenal do it. Not even close. They do it every corner. I feel like that's an easy thing to say, but like... That doesn't matter. But like, you have to pull up some... That's a big thing to say. Brentford do it all the time. I hate it. I hate it. Okay, what about when Brentford equalised against Arsenal last season and he was offside, but they didn't draw the lines?

11:43What the hell is that? We talk about these VAR decisions that affect clubs like that. We lost the title by two points. You shouldn't... Gabriel shouldn't have been playing in this game. Brentford literally scored a goal that was critically impossible inside. It was offside. Can I respond to that? It was an offside goal. Can I respond to that? Because when I brought up... You're bringing up a goal. It was the end of last season. What are you talking about? When I brought up this season... It was literally the end of last season. It was the end of last season. season, 1-0 against Brendan. Wait up Theo, when I brought up Volta Marder, which was this season and your player literally punching him off the ball, you're like, why are you bringing up other stuff?

12:14That was this season, Gabriel punched him off the ball, didn't even get yellow. And by the way, then scored the win of that game, but you said that's irrelevant, but you're bringing up something from last season that is relevant because it benefits Arsenal. My point is, every team benefits and doesn't benefit from different VAR decisions. Sometimes it goes against you, sometimes it goes for you. I've seen more football fans who aren't a West Ham fan or aren't a Spurs or a City fan with effects crying about this than West Ham fans? What are you on about? That's correct. Is that because your time alone won't be full of West Ham fans?

12:46Yeah, West Ham fans will be fucking livid about this. They're not like, go on. I saw loads of West Ham fans like livid. Please relegate us. It's a good decision, lads. I just find it so interesting how all these people chiming in on this debate, I understand everyone's talking about football or not, but you guys are getting so visibly angered by it where first of all it doesn't affect your football. I'm getting more angered by you I like watching football Not this bullshit This rugby This rugby tackling Crowding the goalie Every fucking week Which has been allowed All season Then suddenly it's not allowed So I'm just like I've had to enjoy All this bullshit But then when Arsenal When it happens to Arsenal Every club I promise you I absolutely promise you If that would have been The other end yesterday That wouldn't have been That wouldn't have been given I actually disagree What do you want about If Arsenal would have Are you serious Because you've done it all season It's been allowed all season Are you seriously saying that Yeah, 100%.

13:35So the referees want Arsenal to win the league? Is that what you're saying? No, I'm not. I'll just think... Well, that sounds awfully like what you're saying. Isn't there a video on the official saying, like, they want the champions to change every six years? I'm not saying there's a fucking conspiracy. What's it sounded like? I'm saying, in that moment, if it was Arsenal, based on the evidence of this season, they'd have allowed that goal because they've allowed it all year for Arsenal. Come on. First of all, you don't know that. I also think... I'm not saying I know it. I said it's my opinion.

13:58I can't point every single incident out off the top of my head anyway, but this is, like, remarkably different to other occasions where people just crowd the keeper. Like the keeper's arms have been pulled down and there's an arm across his chest stopping a goalie from reaching full point of catching. The thing that I hear about is it's like, it's not even like, Arsenal fans are so brilliant, I think, and it's all, it's actually, no, no, no, no, by the way, no, the thing that, again, the thing that annoys me, forget about Arsenal and your little title run, enjoy it, but like, this is football, West Ham fighting to survive, Arsenal finally win the Premier League and we're policing it when there's been, there's six fouls there let's just enjoy football and have this what a fucking moment that was football and it's not a moment because I hate Arsenal it's a moment because I like football and I like Callum Wilson number one and trust me it's a benefit if Callum Wilson stops you winning the title but what a shit way to relegate a team that's as massive as West Ham over something that is trivial it's like it reminds me of fucking the F1 and now the season ended with Hamilton in your opinion and you're an Arsenal fan so of course you can think that Gary Neville The man you're not going Fucking hates Arsenal Gary Neville all season He's been champion of Arsenal Every single person online Admits it's a foul And they got it right By the way It's not true You just hear these things That's not true I mean give a fuck What the X Why do I care What they say So what I have my own opinion So why Do you not think Maybe we're wrong on this No no Why would I be on Why would anyone be on the show If we're just going to copy What Gary Neville says No but do you not think And copy what who says Gary Neville No like Look there's a video I've seen a video it's like slow motion I sent it to Will like before any of that happens before the ball even reaches the goalkeeper look at this look at he's not even looking at the ball look that's the keeper the ball hasn't even reached yet go again go again go again no go again he's rugby tackling him each of the goalie foul number one at the front there that's going crazy there he's now rugby tackling him not looking at the ball by the way there he was the knee ball getting put and chugged it's all over the gap The ball's even reached the keeper.

16:04This one here, Sucek on Havertz, was deemed a foul on Havertz. Yeah, Sucek's fouling Havertz as well. Which happened first as well. No, look, but you've just said that's irrelevant. Yeah, it is all irrelevant. But if you're picking up fouls, I think that's bullshit. But if you're picking up fouls, then surely the first foul would be the one that's done. I'll tell you why that's more irrelevant, the Sucek one, because he's nowhere near what's happening. The Pablo one, Trossard, look at him, pushes him into the goalie. you're telling me that's not a foul he's pushing him into the goalie look at him he's not even looking anymore Theo and you're on about this is what I'm about there's three fouls there and all of them are fouls and I wouldn't by the way I wouldn't want to give a penalty to any of them and I wouldn't want to give a fucking rule out the goal either you just have to let what happens there happen because it's such a huge moment also by the way the same Gary Neville who said when that happened to Vicario against Everton said Vicario needs to be stronger Roya needs to be stronger here so does Gary Neville He's not consistent.

17:00He's got five people around you though. But he's not being consistent. I don't really care what Gary Neville said. He's an example. He's an example as an ex-pundit, an ex-pro. So why are you bringing that up as an example? No, by the way, that's correct. Because as soon as Gary Neville went against you, as soon as Gary Neville went against you, you've just been saying, shouldn't we listen to these pundits? Yes, thank you. And you just, by the way, as soon as he has a counterpoint to what you're saying, it's like, I don't believe Gary Neville. You should listen to an ex-professional who's played the game, who might be able to chime in.

17:26Not when the exact same thing happened to Vicario you agree with that? I don't, I haven't seen the incident. The one against Everton? I have no idea what you're talking about. Okay, well. What's your thought, what's your two thoughts on these, like, these challenges here? If that was happening to Arsenal, what would you be saying? I think there needs to be a change of the law because ultimately, like, that's what it's gone down to. They give the foul on Raya, but there are other fouls in the ball. Do you think it's fair to West Ham that... No, I don't think it's fair to West Ham. I'm not an Arsenal fan, so it's like, what do you want me to say?

17:54No, but like, they have valid reasons. That's why I'm saying like, oh, see, it's a correct decision. But what about all of that? You might say, do the correct decision. I don't think so because I think you let it all play out because there's so much happening, Theo. That's what I mean. I think there's too much going on to just isolate the one singular incident which there's so much that led to that. Fouls that basically made that happen. If Trossard's not fucking rugby tackling Pablo, he probably doesn't get near the goalie. So it's like... But that does happen every game though, Tom. Don't deny it doesn't.

18:24like there is a lot of dropping and grappling there's those sport people there's grappling all the time there's even between grappling and rugby tackling but if that doesn't happen he probably just catches the ball so like that's the point you just gotta let it that's what I'm saying there shouldn't have been any decision there because everyone's fouling it's a huge moment in the season right at the end you just gotta let it play out you've got a problem with the law you can't put your hand on them like that and bring the goalie's arm down but you can't do what any of they just did as well Trossard isn't allowed to face away from the ball and you have to actually play the ball not the man you can't describe him by that by the way there's another one where that doesn't make it okay this is the point yeah I agree this is before the ball we're saying it doesn't happen to other teams I've literally just gone on a whole spiel saying the whole season has been fucking marred by this bullshit we see every week at corners by teams which Arsenal pioneered and started and everyone copied because they were the best at it I hate it it's shit it's not football it's bullshit I don't want to come on here and talk about this for fucking 10 minutes it's bullshit I want to talk about the game which by the way Arsenal were fucking shocking in the second half.

19:25I thought you were brilliant first half. I just think it's so like... Let's talk about the game then. We've had 20 minutes on this now. It was an... I thought... I mean, it's the biggest VAR corner history, isn't it? I think Arteta made a mistake when Ben White got injured. Yeah, that's crazy. And I think everyone watching the game was also very confused by it. Played Rice at right back. I thought the obvious change was Mosquera at right back. And he corrected that decision at half-time, which I guess you have to... When you make a mistake you have to I was going to say can I ask you about Zubimendi why has he brought him on and brought him off Stinker and Hooked yeah Stinker and Hooked genuinely fucking is that it for him no it's not it not it I think that will sort of cement that Lewis Skelly is now probably the number one six or eight do you know what I mean I think it was more so just it was definitely a brave decision it was definitely to take him off again by the way because that all that could ruin some players when a sub gets subbed you've seen But this is what I mean.

20:23Otete has been criticised for lack of tactical ability in the past, certainly in the previous few seasons where we've quite bottled it. He's making brave decisions and also come away with the win. There needs to be some level of praise for the manager there. Why are you rolling your eyes? He got away with one. Yeah, this is the thing. He got away with it massively. Yeah, absolutely. Don't get me wrong. Bottom line is you come away with it. The result is... Yeah. I'd be yeah look say what you want to say it is what it is and you've won so you can't really say much I suppose but I'd be worried in a game like that his first thought is to put Declan Rice at right back I'd be worried but he immediately rectified it he didn't he did he waited 10-15 minutes he didn't do it straight away yeah but that's pretty much realising how the play's developing I know but Reeve the fact that even came into his psyche is worrying for me That's like me jumping on the road Causing a crash But saying Well I got off the road And I rectified it It's like well Don't jump on the road I think he just had a lot of faith In Lewis Skelly in midfield And then realised that It was probably Yeah I thought it was Probably had more faith In Zubermendi to be honest I thought it was bizarre He probably had more faith In Zubermendi And then he obviously Let him down again Your best player I thought Yeah Odegaard You have to give credit You always talk about How he doesn't show up In big games And this was obviously A big game He Played well Played very well And won us a game The way he was Missed the clutch as well, getting the goal.

21:48Trost have done it again. I thought Erdogan's probably best 15 minutes of the whole season. The Raya save is fucking ridiculous. 18 clean sheets, is it this season now? I can't believe he missed that. I think... He took an extra touch, you see. Yeah, but he was kind of stuck under his feet a bit, wasn't he? He's tried to be clever and go back into the goal. No, to be honest, he didn't do much wrong, Fernandes. He's a great save with his feet. Raya or Gabe, even the header from, is it Tati or Paz? Tati. From the edge of the box. I was listening to TalkSport and they were having this conversation about, no, it's a genuine, it's a pretty good conversation.

22:26Raya, his performances this season as an individual player for the team at Arsenal, where does it rank in terms of goalkeeping performances? Ever. In Premier League history. Wow. I mean, if you win it, you know what, he's made some massive saves as well. Big moments. He's probably been your best player. just reliable yeah absolutely mix and barry yeah but what top three top five who goalkeeper performances for a Premier League season I'd have to think about it but yeah the hair's got to be in there Alisson one of the years for Liverpool or then one on one check check when he conceded what like three goals all season same season Terry scored 15 as well scored 15 yeah I mean before our time with Schmeichel probably I don't know it's I wouldn't say the best no I'm not you've got to win it first anyway that is true Burnley and Palace do you think it's done?

23:19yeah yeah well was that quote from Glasner real? was that bullshit that I read on Twitter? what he's preparing for the Conference League finals where he was basically saying like he doesn't care about the that cannot be real I was reading out like this can't be real but like it would make sense that is his final home game at the club so I imagine he's probably going to put out a relatively good team yeah you'd like to think so No he won't He'll be resting all of his players For the conference league final Well he won't Because it's before Yeah Against Arsenal The conference league's before Oh they'll be on the beach then I think It's still his final home game It's the last game of the season In the Palace Let me set the scene Yeah the conference finals before Let me set the scene Burnley It's 0-0 86th minute Who comes on It's a Broja No chance Boom There's a guy with a cape They're like oh my god He's putting on Who the fuck's coming on?

24:10It's Broysh. The world's worst footballer. I am Broysh. Trips over the ball but manages to headbutt it in. Does his Achilles. While he's holding Royer's arm. But does it? Does it? Runs off doing Jokkeres. Does his Achilles? Yeah, but he goes off out for two years. That's not Jokkeres. That's brother Fezzel, bro. He goes off doing brother Fezzel. Jokkeres had another good game, though. He did. Let's move. Talk about Man City. How good's Dokku been recently? Unbelievable. He's the best player in the world when he's on it. Yeah. But he's wanting to win it. He is clutch. He is clutch. I was bummed.

24:39Why all these goals? Like, you score just the same goal. It's the same goal. It's the same goal. The goalkeeper needs to move on. He's not a robber. At halftime, I did think, I did think Brentford were going to get something from that game. At halftime. Yeah, they were competitive. They were competitive. And I, talking about VR decisions this weekend, I thought they were done by Brentford. Surely that Sharder one. Surely that Sharder one's a penalty. That's a penalty. How quick Kevin Sharder is. I think it's a penalty. Oh, I don't know. What, Bananasilva? Punching. Wait, which one? The one first off or second half?

25:10Second half, second half. When he's running in. He's got an open. He's got a tap in. He's got a tap in. But that implies that you think it could be. I think it could have been, yeah. And wasn't that nil-nil at the time? That would have been nil. One nil. That could have been one-one, yeah. That would have been soft. Thiago doesn't miss those, does he? He never misses, yeah. Doku became just the third player to record six chances creating six completed dribbles in a Premier League game this season. Yeah. After Saka and Eliancen. I thought that stat was for the entire season there. I was like, fucking Elwood, what?

Read the full transcript

25:37How do you even stop him, by the way? If he goes 1-1 and tries to take it down the line. The amount of times he went past the player was ridiculous. It is for the entire season. In the game, though. I thought it was on about all games combined. What? Never mind. He thought he was the first person to do six dribbles and six chances across the season. In an isolated game. I mean, he's gone. Six dribbles in the entire season. It's rugby, mate. Yeah. Well, the free kick stat alone, although we did have a free kick goal. Did we? No, we didn't. I'm thinking of Rashford. Barcelona! Yeah, Fernandes scored a free kick.

26:12Assewler almost had one. Do you think that loss for Brentford is them out of the European race for top 6-7? No. No, they've got Palace next and then who's their final game of the season? Bournemouth are going through it. Liverpool on the way. Bournemouth have City next. Do you know what? That Bournemouth City game, I could see City dropping points. Yeah, that could be it. that could be it that could be it then Arsenal can win City have got the have they got the FA Cup on Saturday so I mean and it's not as quite isn't it quite a it's only like three day turnaround it's like two day turnaround quite a fast turnaround I think do you not think they'll drop points at Bournemouth Tom with that smile no I'm smirking because you're just saying there's a lot of Gary Neville said but I think Man City will drop points at Bournemouth who are in like a 16 unbeaten game going for Europe oh he's coming at you there I think I think both of you will win it every game.

27:04You let them have it. Yeah. Let them have it. You think both teams will win every game? Yeah. That's exactly why there was so much uproar around the West Ham result. Because that was in most people's final line of defence. Wasn't it? That was the hardest. But can I say wouldn't it be the most Arsenal thing ever to be in the complete clear and drop points to Burnley? 100%. Or Palace who are on the beach. Burnley just drew with Villa. They almost got a result against Man City. Burnley are good on their day. Like we say every single day when they lose. Fleming again. He's like, hey, but they were good.

27:36Fleming again, man, he's a fucking, he's better than your career. Better than everyone. He's genuinely better than you. Is he English? No, he's German, isn't he? Zion. Is that? Zion Fleming. isn't he German? Jamaican. Jamaican? Norwegic. You're not Jamaican. What? Why do I think he's Jamaican? He looks very Fleming. Dutch. He looks very Scandinavian. Dutch. Close enough. Who do we think's actually going to finish in 6th and 7th then? we did it a couple weeks ago I think it is Bournemouth yeah let's talk about Bournemouth 16 games and beating you look at who they sold in the summer yep it's unbelievable and Jan so it's a menu in January it's a Barney Hoisin Itara Kirk Es yeah their recruitment is so good though how good is Ryan oh my god yeah it took his goal 3-3 he's class Kruppi class Gainesville class who's been their player of the season huh who's been their best player of the season oh Alex Scott he's like They've been good this year Alex almost goes under the radar Sometimes Alex Scott's unbelievable Can we talk about Like Iriola to Palace I don't think that I think it's bullshit I was going to say That's fucking really weird I think Iriola Has got some kind of Like huge deal 100 % He has to Is it going to be like A Real Madrid or something like that I don't know I still think he's going to be Liverpool It has to be It has to be One of the biggest Champions League That's such a sideways move If they're both in What?

28:53No if Bournemouth were in The Champions League To Real Madrid No going to Palace No he's about Palace he's not going to Palace he's not going to Palace it's bullshit because if he didn't have such a seismic team coming up next he would not he's about to get born from Chelsea I kind of get a feeling like there was all these opportunities at one point but like they've all slowly like disappeared and he's sort of left and now he's like I'd be amazed I think he's he's gone to prom with like his his like his girlfriend for all these years but like he's went to the gym and now and now like the fitty who's like yeah Galdem like chief cheerleader is saying I'll go prom with you and he's like fucking yeah I'll go Tell her no Told her no And now he's going out With a jock down the road Jock A jock And now he's I got no gal Then for the prom He's gay Yeah that's the plot twist Very quickly Before we move on If you had to Choose one place Iriola will be at Come August Where's he going to be?

29:48I don't know I don't know where there is Yeah I think Liverpool Liverpool's the only option In the Prem now really That's Oh I actually think Man United Chelsea has been linked with him Yeah Chelsea have been linked With him heavy Villa Yeah because Emery leaves The dawn goal with Mourinho On the end Emery goes to Real Madrid I don't even know It's a Villa Where are Villa at the moment Madrid I think Fifth Real Madrid go for like The big miss They're not even locked in yet They are not Their final game of the season Is against City They could finish They've got Freiburg What They're playing Freiburg In the Europa League final They are getting Champions League No I know that part But in terms of the Premier League They look poor in the Premier League Yeah because they just Fucking Villa aren't going to get caught Mate they got Against Liverpool and Man City They could lose both Who's going to catch them?

30:30They better fucking win They could lose both Bournemouth could How are Bournemouth going to catch them? Well a win and a point would catch them I don't know what the goal difference is Similar Yeah there you go You think they're going to catch Villa? Brighton could as well actually With goal difference If Villa lose both Which is every chance they could Bournemouth need four points to catch them I don't think there's any chance Villa drop out of the top five Personally But there is a chance Well yeah Obviously Do you think they Get a point against City or Liverpool Villa Yeah probably Liverpool Yeah It's Friday night Even if they lose both I don't think they'll get caught What if Bournemouth Beat Man City And then they win On their last game Yeah I understand What will happen But I don't think That will happen I think Villa looks shit mate They're putting They're putting the focus On the Europa League final Yeah they better They're not really At the weekend They started Watkins Rodgers a couple of weeks isn't it yeah they've just peppered they just put four they were on real on Thursday against Forrest they were really that's true John McGinn masterclass Forrest's a good team as well so good do you think Emery will be there in the summer yeah Villa yeah yeah he won't get the control elsewhere I think unless Madrid don't go with Mourinho but he looks like they're going to I just think I do think the top clubs look at Emery and just go Maybe not Just not quite You know every If he wins the Europa League right Every single win He's had in the Europa League The team has had Villa in their name That's actually pretty horny Nice Seville Villarreal And Aston Villa Yeah Oh my god Or Sevilla Yeah Say it right That's a cool start Where'd you get it from He just It's also not true Because he won it with Real Betis Nah Oh did he God You fucking How did he do that No I made it up he didn't know I was a bit confused I was like has he ever managed Real Betis where did you see that I don't know I think Twitter I saw it as well it's a good shout yeah I think thanks Will I don't know who else he's managed just always the top Europa League team PSG Arsenal yeah but he didn't win it he got to the final he didn't win it got fucking pumped 4-1 classic Arsenal yeah typical Arsenal very quickly another Villa Villa player Morgan Rogers Morgan Rogers Morgan Rodgers will he be there yeah I'll be there don't see a big club coming in for him no I see like no one who's bigger than where he's at he's not going to go somewhere he's good enough for them but Real Madrid have Bellingham Barcelona have Firmin like he's good enough for them no I know he is but I'd like him yeah true I mean if Real Madrid come calling you just go don't you but I don't think unless they have a huge shake up but then they've already got a 10 yeah I think it's the only way I see it is if like maybe Arsenal but I don't see Arsenal going for him but then you've got Erdogan and Eze and they just spent loads I know if Rodgers will be better but it'll be just Man City he's getting utilised a lot on the left at the moment Man City won't sign him I think Bayern Munich would get him in a season's time they're building their English 11 aren't they over there who?

33:42Bayern Munich they'll give him another season and then go for him they love getting English players him versus Mastriano in the 10 yeah who are the English players they love? Lisa now they're getting in Mr Harry Kane as well they're getting Gordon Eric Dyer they had Eric Dyer they had at one point Portuguese at least I'm French that is true actually early kickoff delivered I didn't watch it it was actually I found it Isaac got fucking booed is that what you watched it was actually real yeah it wasn't no but it's still counsellor Isaac Lee I was watching the game I was just like he's gone man he's gotta go is that oh slot I think he'll be there a bit longer It wasn't a good watch I didn't think the match Were they both just like A pretty good hate watch No but It was just a bit boring Yeah But Rio was just Brilliant Rio He's always just brilliant isn't he But They both just look Just like Do you reckon At this point He's pretty much Played his way onto the Onto the On that left side I don't know I'd take him But I don't know I don't know Might be a bit early.

34:51How much time has he got left? Oh, you mean in terms of it's too early? The entire career. It was a person. The entire career. I can't go at you right. Sorry. He's an explosive player who is good enough to be playing for England on the left-hand side. Yeah. If you compare to... He's in better form than Gordon. Yeah, get him on Northern Gordon. The only one would be Rashford on the left-hand side. He is, but then realistically, if you're too short... That's a risk, isn't it? Are you really going to leave someone like Gordon behind, proven at the top level, like, he's done it for England as well.

35:22He likes him. He's played him a lot, Gordon. Cheers, lads. Are you really going to drop him? Also, he's a second nine, Gordon. Yeah, true. Is he really going to drop him for this 17-year-old? Yeah, look, in spurts, he's looked amazing and all the talent in the world, but we don't know if he can handle fucking playing for England at the top level. It is a different ball game to play for England. and he's also I really don't want to I really don't want to sound like I'm taking it away from him he's also come into a bit of a struggling team where it is kind of easy to look good do you know what I mean is that harsh no no not at all he's their bright spark at the moment yeah it's a bit like when Mane first was playing for Wolves everyone was like fucking hell he's their bright spark and we may be looking at him he's far better than anyone else on the pitch but is he actually not just at the level he should be I'd say also though maybe being the only exciting player on the team actually like the amount of energy he'll get off the crowd and like the sort of energy around just it's different it's like not making it about Newcastle but reminds me when we got Joe Willock in and we were complete shit he got him on loan he started scoring like literally the whole team was just Joe Willock and he became like unbelievable Joe Willock doesn't get the ball and get people off their seat going oh we'll see like Rio does that no but what I'm saying that's an example of like when you are surrounded by surrounded by shit and it elevates you a bit more when you know you're the man he didn't draw with Shira's record didn't he Willock in that period was unbelievable He scored like nine goals or something.

36:41That's not me, nine goals, right? Yeah, it was fucking mental. And also we're like, fuck. Yeah, no, you ripped us off. And then got a premium on him. Let's talk about Arnie's slot then. What is going on with him? Is he... Little jelly boy. They did say that it was likely that he was going to stay. I know, but when those Liverpool fans have gone, mate, it's hard to get them back. Well, based on the panel today, Iroh Iola's going to be there next year, so... I think he's too far gone. Isn't it just like a mad drop-off? Yeah, it is. It is, yeah, but it's also, it's now fully his team. It's fully his team.

37:15And I think you're seeing how they're just like, they are boring. Yeah. Like what? Yeah, I used to be excited. Because I remember in the summer, you looked at the signings they made and they were like, yeah, they're good signings. Yeah, they were proactive. They got a right back, arguably one of the best right back. Good signings. They thought they were like a super team. They got the best left back in the league, arguably. They were the cockiest fans in the world at the start of the season. From the best tens in the world. the he's almost with the style he's tried to implement and put on this team he's almost like five years too late like no one plays this way anymore yeah don't get me wrong the top teams always dominate possession but not as slowly as this they move the ball so slowly side to side it's like where's the the one thing when I watch Liverpool they've got no pace yeah none apart from Rio that's it who hasn't been starting like Like Gakpo, not fast.

38:10Salah's lost half a yard, even when he's been out, or whoever, I just think... Frimpong's fast, isn't he? Frimpong's rapid, yeah, but I mean, like... Like slow midfield. They're just not athletic enough, which are the modern... Like, look at Arsenal, like Rice and fucking Saka and Gabriel, like Calafiore, like Timber. Curtis Jones? Yeah, right back. Like, Kirkhead, It's like they're just... He's not really gelled in, is he? Isn't it weird looking at that Chelsea team as well? Just for the amount he's spent. It's like... Shocking. Like, what is... How is this... Look at their bench. Do you think that's one of the worst Liverpool versus Chelsea...

38:51Look at their bench. Look at their bench. They've got a bit away on their bench. You don't... I guarantee you don't even know five of them. Four. Well, Lavi has just not existed for ages. Rhys James... The lap's been very disappointing. Inshalibur. Where has the money gone, genuinely? Where's the money gone? Have they got crazy? Who am I thinking of who's injured? They've gone crazy mode. They've got crazy mode. They've got 50 people, though. Got Nacho, Gittin. Estival. Estival, yeah. Estival, yeah. Estival, yeah. Oh, my God. They've got Lightning McQueen, though. Hato's playing, though. Lock it out.

39:23They've got a risk. Speaking about Chelsea, a little bit of talk sport breaking news. Alonso is emerging as one of the leading contenders to be Chelsea's new manager. Oh, to Chelsea. That was a rumour the other day. I'll just... It's interesting. How do you have held talks? That's not really... It's not really the Chelsea I know approach. I know what he's doing. Alonso, he wants a Liverpool job. Liverpool like, no, I want Arnie. He's like, right, I'm going to go shag this lass unless you come to me. And then he's making them jealous. Mate, I don't think... Liverpool job's not up for grabs at the minute.

39:55It will be, though. Because they're going to see Alonso's going. I don't know. Alonso's like their backup plan. They have come out and said he's staying. Really? He should just go. What's the Alonso approach? I don't see Alonzo at Chelsea That doesn't make sense For Chelsea What do you mean by Alonzo at Chelsea Well notoriously Chelsea have just got The fucking big guys Like the successful Big boys Not so much recently I know of recent years Everyone's recently Yeah Yeah of recent Under the Americans maybe But Yeah you're thinking About previous ownership You're thinking of Abramovich mate Surely Alonzo Yeah but that Is it 2008 anymore Do you not think That's what I'm saying Do you not think That's where Chelsea Have gone wrong Maybe this is why The fan base Has sort of fallen out Is that they look At Chelsea right now And they don't see Their Chelsea Well yeah but also get over it.

40:35But is Alonso not the perfect kind of punt to try and bet on that kind of manager? Alonso kind of fits their project, but also he has got that experience and proven. It's a sexy name for them as well. It would make sense, but it would make more sense than fucking Rossini or Gary O 'Neill. Get Potch back after the World Cup. Do you think it's a good step for Alonso? It's a Premier League club. It's a Premier League club. I'm not sure he does well though yeah I'm not sure any manager going to Chelsea is a good step I don't think it's the worst because they're in such a bad position it's like if there's not obviously you can only go up is what I'm trying to say that's not always true Man United didn't do that no that's true but like if he goes in and does alright he's already kind of improved from Rasheed he did that when he first started Igor went in and made him worse it always looks like though it would look like it wouldn't hurt him so much because it wouldn't look like it's completely his fault because the club just is in the shit Okay, the thing that I'd worry about that is with what happened at Madrid, basically I think the players kind of threw him under the bus and got him out.

41:40That Chelsea dressing room is probably 10 times as worse. I'm not sure how. You need to get rid of Garnatio. They've got all the ego and none of that. Can you get rid of Garnatio out? Is it worth it for his mental health? That's a good point, yeah. Why are you doing this? I don't think Chelsea's an attractive job for a manager. But they are Chelsea and they do have money in it. I don't know. They pay a lot But you've got to remember All these managers have egos Of I can turn this club around But is it worth it? Probably yeah He's probably on like 12 million pound a year You look at that team You just think That's a fucking state They have mate They're like first teamers I mean they've got A good enough squad For him to At least be attracted to it I just can't believe The team I think he'd need Assurances of the type of player They're going to sign In the summer And who's going to stay Yeah his Enzo's going to go I don't think he's got his palmer going to go Loza doesn't really have the players that would want to play his style does he the attacking fullback kind of vibe you know they always have like pacey wingers going up and down especially at Leverkusen with their wing backs aren't they yeah so you'd have to change they'd have to he'd have to be allowed to make his signings this summer he didn't totally play that at Madrid though did he no I think he is he is adaptable yeah I think he is but I don't know but there's more on Chelsea later oh here's the magic foreshadowing speaking of foreshadowing Lou hello I watched this yesterday Jordi Maradona yeah we are officially out of the Champions League race but you're off and you're out of the relegation race sorry is this January but Conference League we'll be seeing you soon do you actually think you're going to get that no how could I say can I just say one thing right miss him can we all I love Volta Mara but this is why lads you don't play him in a way this is this is why it takes more time it's not FIFA we looked there's a reason we looked way better when we went back to what we've been doing and we actually scored a goal I've said this to you he can't play in a wide games man he had moments he struggled to get into it the game passes him by doesn't he he just ain't got the legs to play away from home I don't think in that 10 it's just yeah we're pretty shit like no not trying to disrespect Bruno was the only awful Bruno even that breakaway he's just so slow to play to Sula as well no I thought he did well there because he did draw he hasn't got speed to beat Matt he drew both of them all He just looked slow, though.

43:59Yeah. He drew the men over and he gave a good ball to Sue there. Tell you what, do you know who had a good game? Who? Pope. I thought Pope had a good game. What? He made some good saves. I disagree. Are you joking? I think he's fucking flapped at first off. Well, not that one, but he did make some good saves. I'll say, do you know what he does? He's like a hockey goal. Yeah, Lewis did through earlier. Yeah, he calls out like any occasion. Yeah, that one maybe not. But I thought he did make some good saves. He's fucking hell open your eyes! He did technically save it, but... You should have saved the Elliot Anderson one.

44:29Yeah. Who do you want as your starting keeper next season? Anyone but him. Trafford? Look, yeah, I love Trafford. Look, it's interesting that we basically confirmed Gordon's gone. Hal basically confirmed it afterwards as well. Yeah, I mean, he was saying in the build-up how he's only going to be playing players who are committed and Gordon has been featuring. He's back from injury now. And then after the game, he's asked on it and he said he's looking forward to players who are in next season or something to that effect. So he's off, but fair enough. we've got to be selling some players. We've been selling a lot of players.

44:59The only one I'm really fucking desperate to keep is Bruno. He's the only heart beat in the team, isn't he? He genuinely, like... Yeah, you are. He's unbelievable. Yeah, he's class, man. He's fucking mint. Do you know who is... Do you know how a lot of people talk about... I put a tweet out the other day just asking who do you reckon is the most under-the-radar player who should be in the team in the season, whatever. Do you know the flip side of that? Do you know the worst player in the Premier League? Is that Bakwa for Forrest? Does he get regular Any time he plays The winger He is The opposition's Best player He's caused us A problem It was Dan Byrne Like holding him Onry did like A thing on him Saying yeah He's unbelievable He's like I think he knows From like the French He's a French Under 18 Under 19 player I've watched a lot of them In the Europa League as well And any time he's played Oh my fucking god I can't get over How bad he is I don't know how He keeps playing he just brings a bit of energy I guess I mean yeah what's I Mo Farah like or bandit oh he needs to be in other news Forrest are staying up everyone thought you know they had a bit of a patch where they're going to go down but they're definitely staying up yeah Pereira's confirmed Pereira's done a good job yeah he has done a really good job cheers for that you twat I can't wait for the season to be older than me yeah I get that feeling a little bit fucking end it imagine if he'd finish 16th imagine we finish anywhere let's just get it done and sell everyone who's your last two games honestly I don't even know who I've got off to my head you've got West Ham next don't you yeah that's a loss and they're fighting to survive West Ham then Fulham do you know what let's give West Ham a win lads let's just give it let's have a Callum Wilson skear goal skear goal I'm actually quite excited just to sell the old team and just see what happens do you know on like FIFA sometimes you get like a take over yeah but you're not really though you wouldn't be happy to see that.

46:52No, I promise you, this team needs a refresh. No, I actually promise you, as long as there's like, there's certain players there who I definitely want to keep, yeah, but the rest, it's like, I like them. Look, it's time that we refresh the team, sell them all and let's get some new faces in and fucking go. You've been unrealistic, aren't you? Apparently it's going to be like, with out-goers and in-goers, it's going to reach like, mid-teens, like 15 in and out going. Like, it's going to be crazy. You're buying seven players, seven selling players. Yeah, like, there's going to be a lot going. You're going to see, from that line-up you're probably you're going to see Schart and Nali probably go if there's anyone to follow them Pope's going to go Ramsdale's going as well Volta Mata hopefully stays Livermental's going to go but his injuries are scaring people off Gordon's going like Trippier's leaving confirmed Willick might go as well Johan Wisser oh can I say one fucking hell no I just say it do you see Johan Wisser the chance oh my right when he just missed it can I say one thing because I know we'll stop Newcastle now I'm a patient fan.

47:49The amount of time I defended Alanga at the start of the season, Jesus Christ. I'm still fighting Eddie Alskorn. But Johan Wisser, you've got to give me something like that. Do you know what? He is a free transfer in two weeks. We spent 55 million for him and he's been injured. He came back too early with shit. And every single time he plays now, he's fucking wanked. I don't understand how good he was last year. It doesn't make any sense. He can't kick a ball. Do you know what's frustrating about him, Ryan? Even as a complete neutral watching it yesterday and that time before. he looks so disinterested.

48:20Yeah. It comes, like, you know, Asula, right? He ain't the best. He tries. He tries. Do you know what? Like, he, he has got a bit and like, as a fan, you'd be like, you know what? He's actually giving it a go or like making runs or trying to run with the ball. He's good. Vissa's just like, no, you know, Asula can sometimes trip over the ball. That is true. You never know what you're going to get. Do you know what? He's Dallin Nunes with better dance moves. But then Vissa, like, will just completely miss a good chance, like, missed the ball on a good chance and then he's kind of, like, dawdling around and he's like, come on, man.

48:51Like, give us some. And this thing, like, look, I don't think we will get rid of him because, like, we're just going to lose so much fucking money on him. I still love you, Wisser. No, you don't. That's bullshit. That's true, actually. I don't love you, but you can still earn my love. I promise. He was liking some of them players' Instagram post, mate. Yeah. I don't know if that was free. We're going to say one thing. If you want to use actually told me at the start of the season, like, Asula would be our starting striker. By the way, not only deservedly and to be a really good part of our team, I would have thought you were the most mental people in the world.

49:25Even five, ten weeks into the season. I love him. He's good, man. He's decent. I just don't see it. He's decent for a team in 13th. This is fucking unbelievable. This guy, honestly, if he learns to just chill. Let's relax. I love him, though. He just looks so... He's not unbelievable, is he? He's an average Premier League footballer. But more and whistle later, guys. He looks like a crop character when he plays he's cool I like Wissler he's clever not Wissler I'll see you there Palace 2-2 against Everton the man who shall not be named equalised again another great against him to be fair Wharton with a chance to win it at the end hitting the post go on what were you going to say?

50:01Strand Larson I know obviously wasn't much of an impact like what's he been up to? yeah what's he just what's he been up to? he's absolutely I know he made last week he's made last week but he's a little bit of a waste of money it looks like it now he's what still 22 23 and if Mateta leaves I guess they've got no he's 26 he's not 22 23 Jesus he's like 26 pretty sure he is oh fair enough four goals 26 26 how much was he apologies 44 goals this season 33 games yeah it's not the best is it Jesus but how many have been for Palace appearances what's he done oh true He's a Wolves player for the first season, wasn't he?

50:43He scored three for them. It's a lot of money to spend. How often has he been starting? He's starting pretty much all the games. Look how excited you are about that. Yeah, he's shitted, isn't he? Yeah, because it was the period where Mateta was, you know. Oh, yeah, he's only started, yeah. He also doesn't look good. No, he's been poor. He's been really poor. Better mind, when he was at Wolves, he actually looked like quality. Not this season. No, last season he looked quality. what was his first year in the Premier League he got 15 non-penalty this is the thing it's like because there's such a shortage of strikers people jump so quickly when a striker's a good season it's like Igor Thiago do you reckon he's just going to go for a huge fee now you score 15 goals in a season and you're instantly worth 56 million pounds I feel though Igor Thiago it's different with him he's on what 23 but like he could easily just fall off next year and do a score 10 Solanke oh yeah he is good Solanke but he's not being the Bournemouth good Do you know what I mean?

51:40It's just almost as if like lads stop spending ridiculous money on strikers who are unproven Yeah but that's the whole point Do you know it was the most expensive of them all? Wait how much was Votemar though? It was Seska 17 mil Yeah but then you could say that and then on the flip side I didn't buy Mo But he's proven They're both proven They've been doing it for years They're proven So is Visser Yeah Visser should have been the banker I agree Visser was the banker which is why I'm really confused 55 million But also having a good season in the Premier League when you're looking to be bought by other Premier League teams does count for something.

52:12I think just when it's just one, I don't know what it is. Prem proven does matter a lot. Yeah. In terms of the travel. But how long do you think it's prem proven? Like one season, I feel like there's enough evidence where one season isn't enough for prem proven. Yeah, but that's the risk you take. Yeah, that's true. That's the whole, that's the circle of life, my brother. But I feel like it bites you more than it feeds you, you know? Does it? But also if you're prem proven a bit longer period of time, then you're going even more. And you're going for like 90 million to Chelsea. Bundesliga proven is more of a tricky one.

52:39Yeah. That's more of a tricky one. What about Bundesliga unproven? Oh, hey. Untapd potential there. Good point for Palace there. Bad for Everton's drop points with their sort of European hopes. Yeah, Everton should have really gone there. Yeah, they should have done that. One team who would just probably, I'd say that's one of their worst performances of the season, Wolves. That probably won't. It's probably one of our best to be fair. That first five minutes though, Come on, you Wolves. Oh, my God. Yeah. That was that, for me. The defending from the corner to the dunk goal is just so school...

53:15I thought it was pretty good for them. You had six people on the front post, and then five Ryan players on the back post. It's crazy. Wolves are now only the second team to have lost against all 19 teams after Sheffield United. Even Derby didn't lose to everyone. You have to be my good double relegated. I'm not even sure. Also, by the way, Hinchelwood's header is just class. He said he did a really good run of formers on Ian Shilwood. And he can play everywhere. Yeah, but the Wolves players are fucking, they were disguised. They don't care. Did you see what Edwards came out and said afterwards?

53:44I know, Bucket. Will, I know you were saying, oh, that's him going on this. I rate what you're saying. I'll Bucket. Do you think they're going to sack him? I think the fans have turned. It's not his fault. They're all shit. Will, say what you said earlier. My maintain. There's, so, Pereira, Lopetegui, Lars O 'Neill and when as soon as they had a go at the players they were gone and Edwards has had a go at the players now and it depends how they react but that would make that would make no sense you literally hired him for the purpose of next season but I feel like I feel like you know what Wolves fans are like wants to go yeah yeah yeah it's hard to get maybe he wants to be peered off I think it's still pretty split but the thing about Edwards is like I don't really have any feeling towards him like none considering he played for you as well, yeah.

54:30No, I'm a bit like, whatever. Yeah, that's weird. Sometimes I'll back a manager. That's not a good spot to be in though. Sometimes I'll back it when a manager comes out and says, you shit. Like, because some, like, if there's ever a time a manager can say that, surely it's after this. No, no, no, but what Will's point is, that's like, it would appear the last straw. The fact he's now doing that. But I, for a Wolfs fan, I'd be like, half leaves are going to go. We've got a manager who's proven in the division below. Like, two right, let's just call them two because they're going to be gone. I understand that, but what Will's trying to get at is every manager who's come out and slagged the players off has been gone.

55:06So he's going to know that. That is true. But do you not think... He also said before the game that this... He said, this isn't my fault. Yeah. I get it. It's like... You shouldn't say that. It's almost like he's deflecting before the inevitable kind of thing. He shouldn't say it's not his fault either. That's deflecting blame. But he's not just right, though, about the players in that game in that first... He was talking about the first five, ten minutes, wasn't he? Yeah. He is right about that to call them out But it's very rare managers come out and slag the plaque Usually they protect them don't they?

55:36Yeah, yeah So the fact he's doing that is a bit like oh Fuck protecting the man Sometimes they deserve it No, but he'll hammer them in the dressing room It's good management to hammer them privately and back them publicly Sometimes as a fan it's nice to hear it when you're really annoyed Players are fucking divas Like you've got to mobby coddle them You don't think you'll have them for next season then? I don't know I don't know I think it's it's like Thompson though it seems a bit rash to do that the entire ideology of getting them in in the first place was to bring you back up next year I'll be honest I haven't really spoke to my mates a lot about Wolves lately because they're just so checked out so I wasn't aware season's already ended genuinely I've barely spoken to them they just don't like they're so checked out but I didn't realise the fans had turned that much to be honest there you go I can't wait to fucking honour you next season again I think you probably will at this rate I know we will Is Wolves the one you get most excited for?

56:31Yeah I'm looking forward to losing at Lincoln City next year I'm not sure if I'll get to the Molineux Do we stream that next year? Do you reckon we stream that next year? Oh I bought two season tickets the other day FYI I've renewed mine Right behind me uncle You'd be going to both games though wouldn't you? Do you think if my dad wants to come before Jackie Lou? You were trying to go to both games wouldn't you? I'd do a back the away game I'll be going You can't go Molineux Surely we stream that What? Yeah I should be alright because it'll be escorted in and out but I personally wouldn't risk it after everything you've said this year No the Tom Curry escort of course Yeah sorry yeah You have said some nasty things to them this year Oh the discards Do you know what actually I meet a lot of Wolves fans who like me Yeah but these will be drunk Because I give them a fair To be fair Theo with the performance of the Wolves players this season he hasn't been horrible enough Yeah yeah yeah that is fucking fair He also talks to the fans though Yeah Dying of house fire Including Will Do we think Brighton are going to get Europe then Europe On the other side Who's their last two games They've got Leeds I had them sixth I think Leeds and then United I think Is that what it is Yeah I can see Bournemouth Doing it I actually want Bournemouth to do it Well they'd be Roper if The Cherries They'd win it right I think Bournemouth I think it'd be nice To see Brighton and Bournemouth In the top Top European competitions Very nice to see The old Seagulls there A fun draw with Sunderland and Man United Yeah 0-0 Yeah Stoppable force Man United were poor I thought Anyway It was a shit game But Man United were shocking Before we had Barcelona Barcelona won La Liga Beating Real Madrid Yeah The big thing From last week Mbappe Has now launched A petition against him Has racked up to 70 million signatures Yeah by the way 70 70 million Will you know That is actually fake What the fuck So they've set the petition that you can vote more than once.

58:25It's like unlimited amount of votes. But it's still good. I still respect the commitment. They're setting bots to just... Still respect the commitment. What's happening with Mbappé then? You've obviously put zero through, right? What do you think's going to happen with Mbappé? That's what he said. Mbappé will stay. He'll 100 % stay at Madrid. No, that's not true. I messaged him. He said he's calm about it. Why don't you start another... He can't leave. No one can afford him. Let me ask you a question then. if Real Madrid offered Mbappe to Arsenal for a million pounds you'd say yes despite the trouble it seems to have cost 100 % what about he wouldn't listen to the lightbulb I wouldn't give him I won't touch him with the barge I'd say he would be there like the lightbulb and he's just on his he's got a winning formula literally look at PSG since he's left yeah and Neymar and Messi I feel like a lot of people said this for a while though everyone knew it was something yeah but they did change their approach they changed their entire approach All right then, look at Madrid since he's joined.

59:20Can't win anything. What do you mean? It's not his posture, then. Oh my God, you're so embarrassing. Hang on, what do you mean by they changed their entire approach? Look at France when they won the World Cup. They still bought all of their young, talented players for like six million plus. You honestly don't think he's a problem in the dressing rooms? Seriously. I don't know. I'm not in the dressing room. I would say that the... I'm asking your opinion. idiot and people probably like to blow things out of proportion like a politician I think he is actually probably like to change him because you look at why is there not an issue at France because he's allowed to be the main man isn't he and get what he wants he couldn't be at PSG oh so they're not really dying for that long are they it's like a there are by the way there's reports from inside the club where it's like he's forcing himself back from injury not to help the team but he wanted to beat Ronaldo's record and then he hurt himself more there's just things from sources inside the club coming out.

1:00:17You also didn't answer my question. In your opinion, do you think he's an issue in the dressing room for clubs at PSG and then Madrid? No. I think he... Also, could you not argue to play devil's advocate? It's a club's fault. He deserves to be the ego. He deserves how good he is. I don't think he deserves to ruin dressing rooms and make it all about him now. Do you think that too much about Verde fight is his fault? No. Do you not think there's a deeper issue going through Real Madrid at the moment, though? You look at their change of Mario Nigeria. Yeah, but they reckon And that was a lot down to him, wasn't it?

1:00:47Yeah, wasn't it in defence of Mbappe? I don't know. Don't you think the whole thing where he basically got the keys to PSG and made them give him fucking a billion pound a week? He had keys to them, what do you call them? And then finally, when he got what he wanted, went to Madrid. The catacombs were his little band. I do think there's a common denominator. Everywhere he goes, trouble seems to be. It's a bit more of a coincidence now, isn't it? Everywhere he goes. Surely there's better strikers in the world that would fit Arsenal. Jokeres no but there wouldn't be I'd take Jokeres over Mbappe who would you take over Mbappe would you take Vissar over Mbappe no I wouldn't take Vissar over Mbappe Jesus Christ by the way Arteta wouldn't touch him Arteta wouldn't get near Mbappe there's no way in hell he'd want him in the dressing room the culture is cultivated I understand that what he's like managed to do at Arsenal with changing everything got all the bad eggs out by the way the mark you'd have to pay him and then you have every other play and every other player at your door saying you're paying him 500k, where's my 400k?

1:01:48There's no way he's leaving. It fucks it.

1:02:19We'll stay there, won't we? He's not the end of the world. But they should have lost. Yeah, Longstaff's all close on that. Who are the final two fixtures for Spurs? They've got... I know they've got Everton on the final day. Chelsea. And then Chelsea next. Chelsea. But who's West Ham? We've got West Ham, we've got... Newcastle and then Leeds. See, they could... Leeds final day. Do you think it'll come down to final day? Yeah. No. Oh, you think West Ham lose and Spurs win against Chelsea? I think, yeah. I think Spurs might get a draw. West Ham lose from Newcastle. And then Newcastle win, yeah. who's Leeds sorry who's Spurs got I forgot Chelsea do you think they'll win at Chelsea no no no I think they'll get a draw and West Ham will lose to oh yeah I could agree with that to Newcastle yeah that basically ends it Kingsky's sort of playing to be number one next year fair play to the comeback by the way he's by the way off the back of the Atletico he's actually always been alright and what's ironic is with that Atletico one where he did he fucked up with his feet which is actually the best part of his game that's why he was bought in by Ange when they had all them injuries.

1:03:22It was just the opposite of Vicaria, wasn't it? He's known for being really good at his feet, but that say there, he's like ridiculous. Longstaff should have probably scored another as well. Yeah. It came on though, and instantly got himself in two big areas. He came on the pitch. He came on and got himself in two big areas. He was at one point. Both on the penalty. Yes, that's safe. What about the penalty? Good call once again. Another good VAR decision. Won the ball. Ironic. No, no, no. We're talking about the DCL pen. I don't like high foot but I understand it's part of the game I think that's an optical illusion I can't even I think he's hit I can't even tell by the time he he goes like that he reacts up which is caused from a boot to the skull does look a little bit weird though doesn't it oh yeah I don't know does it matter even if he hasn't made contact because he's that close does it even matter well yeah because also I do also think like the attempt Ampadu has put his head there but it is a high foot and it would be a free kick anywhere else on the pick but there is no law against not being able to do an overhead kick.

1:04:19No. And when he went to do it, there was no one around him. Ampadu's like sprinted in and put his head there. But you know sometimes when high footers are given when the players are headed down here? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ampadu's like, he's up in the sky. Tell. Tell's jumped. I can see why he's given. It's like eight foot in the sky. Tell's the one doing the bicycle kick. Ampadu's the one coming up. Yeah, Ampadu's head's like eight foot up in the air. Yeah, he's jumping. Might be, he's jumped. You think he's jumped? higher than Ronaldo's record well he's 7 foot I think yeah I can see why it's given and yeah the Madison one he did just get a slight nick on the board didn't he was it Okafor and Nevecha I think so yeah Okafor I can't remember which one it was Okafor was not on the pitch so say Spurs stay up Spurs are staying up deserves in charge how well will he do will he take them back to the top nah it depends on who they end up selling I think they'll be back in the top half next season there has to be that it I don't yeah I think you're right it's they're not going to be like top four because ultimately I know they concentrated on Europe and all this and that but this season like they finished back to back 17th that is a systemic issue that will take a long time to change you said that about Man United last year I think they started playing players yeah but that's two years I know 17th is a lot worse than what Man United did yeah but like we said this before going from 17th to 5th and also is not that Man United difficult in this league when you are that big of a club.

1:05:44I think Man Utd had issues for like 10 years. No, but... Do you know what I mean? Yeah, but the big clubs get back up to the top quicker than smaller. We'll see if Tottenham won, won't we? Yeah, but this is what you said about Man Utd. I've seen you were wrong. I also said it about Spurs this year and I was right. You did not say they were going to finish 17th this year. I called 15th. I don't think you did. You were saying 17th and you bottled it and said 7th. I mean, I can't talk because I said Forrest, but you were convinced they were going down. You said 17th. No you do man 70 Good season for Leeds Very good season Back in the big time Staying up Yeah Conor morning I want to ask you a question on this Fargo's done a great job 44 points Is there an argument for them to go move on quickly get a better manager like Bournemouth did get rid of O 'Neill I think that's hot I think that would be I think it is harsh but I can see them doing it I think Sunderland will do it as well Yeah Sunderland should because they're playing shit they're above Leeds they might not do it but they'll be thinking about it but what kind of level manager who would they go for as an example I think Leeds United and the Premier League are a very very big job yeah I do agree I do agree with that but hasn't he hasn't he earned the right I agree I'm just asking the question should Leeds I don't think right now Leeds should be looking I think they need another season in the Premier League yeah just stabilise which he's proven he can do Bournemouth didn't change it instantly did they you kept them up didn't you you kept them up by the skin of their teeth didn't you and then they came back up again no but that wasn't under O 'Neill O 'Neill kept them up did pretty well he did okay and then they moved on quickly and got the roll in I don't know I think there's probably I feel like there's more chance of Sunderland doing that for some reason I don't know I feel like that's kind of the vibe do you reckon that's just because Sunderland have I don't know it sounds weird in saying this but maybe more ambition to be like a top half team in the...

1:07:43I don't think that's true. No, I think Leeds have more... I think they're both. What do you think, Nick? Sunderland have been overly... I think he's keeping... He's just like... I think he's keeping... I don't mean they're playing good football, they're doing well. I mean, like, Sunderland's a bit different, whereas... I know they're ahead of us and the head of Leeds, but I don't think their football is future-proof. Who are you talking about? Sunderland. I feel like... I do feel like in the position where they are... What don't you think is future-proof? I feel like they're actually in a position better than Maud's soul than Leeds where they can actually get a bigger manager.

1:08:16I know you say Leeds in the Premier League. Why? Leeds are a way bigger club than something. Yeah. I don't know. I feel like something that's just my opinion. I think that they're in a better position to go and get it. I think they're playing worse football. They're a bit lacklustre. Even with Xhaka on the pitch now they're just a bit fucking... They're not on United the weekend. So who do you back more? If each team stayed with the same manager who would you back more next season? Because for me it's Leeds. Depends if they keep Xhaka or not Yeah it depends on the I do think Just going back to the point You were saying Leeds is a bigger pull Than Sunderland For a manager to come Into the Premier League For next season I don't know Sunderland got you I'm a little bit Why if Sunderland get Europe Europe They're not going to get Europe It is an interesting one Do you think Leeds will Do you think Carver-Lewin will be as good As he is next year As he is this year No And do you think that will be A big miss if he's not as good He hasn't been for a while No I know He's been Okafor hasn't he So maybe Okafor is going to be the talisman next year.

1:09:11They keep him. Exactly. Who knows? We'll see. But then I think Sunderland might get ravaged as well. Amukiele? Maybe. Well, defensively. Roof? Yeah, a couple of the back line getting watched. We'll see. Very quickly before we go to the next game. Newcastle, West Ham. Who's winning that? Newcastle. Yeah, they've got a ball now. Chelsea, Tottenham. Draw. Draw. Yeah. So that's three points clear. That's what we said earlier. That's right. That's why I think it won't come down to the last day. It's a sad day. Up the Spurs. I called it. Oh, this is fun. Right, we're going to be doing our top 10 words starting to the season.

1:09:47As last week, we did our top best. Right. Top best. I'm thinking of a number between one and three. Go. What? Two. Go. Three. Four. No, it was four. Two. I'm going first. What? That was class. I don't know. You're going to brown me again. I don't know if I agree on my own list. I keep looking at it. Well, considering you've had since Friday to do it and you've only just finished it. By the way, doing it during this year. I keep changing my mind. It doesn't really matter. They've all been crap. There is lots of crap. It depends what you value as... There's different ways to look at it. Right. I've gone with...

1:10:22That's wrong. You're wrong. That's wrong. That's wrong. Sorry. Oh my God, he hasn't even done his list. Oh my God, did he change his list? Well, you can't change your list. Sorry. Right. In 10th, I have gone with Otomada just because of the price tag. Yep. Don't mind that. 9th. Do you think he'll come good? I think he'll come okay. I think he's all right. What the? That is crazy. I'm not sure what's happened there. 75 million. It's a lot of money. 69. What is he, 69? He's 69 million. No, he's more than that. 69. 65 plus 4.3 million. I think he's a grippler. 75 million euro. Yeah, but that's why he's not higher.

1:11:03The only reason I... And he has... I've seen signs. And the only reason, the only defence you can make of that transfer is like, one, is the favourite deal. You're a Newcastle fan and you're back everything they do. Oh, trust me, I've got some Newcastle players. Don't you worry about that, brother. I think we all have. But like, he's Germany's striker. Like, they're playing all the time. He's a young... No, no, no, but no. Germany are crap. If you let me finish, like, he's playing, he's a young player. Like, it's not like it's lost transfer value. Like, say Wisser, you've never seen that money ever again.

1:11:30Like, that's the only reason and I don't think it's a terrible transfer. I know, but Lewis, yet again, this isn't a fucking accounting meeting. We're just... I'm not doing it based on that. That's logic. Ninth, I've gone Lucas Perry. The fact Carl Darlow's now starting in goal for them, I think says a lot. They won Pope. That would be a good sign. He's probably the only bad one they did make, really, isn't he? Yeah, but he started all right. Yeah. And then by January, he was just... Carl Darlow's good, though. Kicked out. Yeah, but Carl Darlow shouldn't be starting for a Premier League team. But he's actually improved them.

1:12:00Eighth I've gone De Lapp Yeah He's just I feel a bit I almost feel bad for him I do a bit But he has just He was too bad He gets a chance He gets a chance And he never takes it Do you know what I mean That's kind of his job How much was he They literally don't play To any of his strengths It was like 20 Was it 20-30 30 million That's the only They'll probably sell him back To Ipswich Yeah Welling with them They'll put him on line Wouldn't they Another strike Stairway We're going to be signed From Stratton Smith Seventh I've gone John Arias. Oh, yeah. Didn't even make it. I've got him well, have you?

1:12:33They shot him for 20 mil and he'd already gone in January. Shipped him off in Jan. He was sold to us as the Colombian Pellet. Literally. How much did you sell him? That is correct, though. They've got a profit. Oh, they made a profit. You can't say that. That's a stinker. It's a fucking profit. I'm not talking about the transfers out. I'm talking about the transfer. No, that's correct. If you sign him and sell for profit the same season, you're fucking laughing. How much profit do you make, Will? Come on. Also, come on. I know you said it's not an account meeting, but that is... Hang on a minute, hang on a minute, how much profit?

1:13:00Also, I don't think that's true. I'm working out. I don't think that's true. Is it like two mil or something? They made two million in three months. To be fair, wages as well. Yeah, but Strand Larson like doubled in value. We sold him for 21.5 after signing him for initial 15. That's good! That's great! They're making business out there. Yeah, you talk about the bloke who went to Juve as well. What's his name? Lloyd Kelly. Was he supposed to save the club by the time he left? They were on like five. Yeah, but he brought some money. That's good. I still think they would have lost money with agent fees and wages.

1:13:30Nah, it works, mate. What was I going to say? Yeah, but he is the Colombian Pelé in Pelé's current form. Dead. In sixth, I've got Tyler Diblin. Yes. Yep. Fifth, I have gone Isaac. In fifth? Oh, that's... He's been out the whole season. But let's not worry you for future seasons. I feel like it's harsh to rank someone as the worst signing because he broke his leg. Yeah that's fair But when he has played He hasn't been great True but He did boss He's bossed his leg But he does also have like He was out recently For his groin issue When he came back And that was his long term I understand your agenda I don't know Agenda gives it But when he plays football I think Has his man played football He scored a good goal The other week Oh fucking shit man Anything else That's it He's shit He's crap Hasn't his record been like Alright actually This season This slow I feel like he's been alright Do you think He's out will come good But yeah I think he will That's another thing Yeah but you can't do it currently, I think the player, but it's not a prediction game.

1:14:28I just don't think he'll stay fit enough. I don't think he'll stay fit enough, unfortunately for him. Because he does have genuine long-term issues. Three goals. 145 million euros. I mean, that's a lot of, that's a lot of moolah, mate. He's a lot of money, that's why he's fit. A lot of moolah. That's a lot of moolah. Fourth, I've got Garnacho. Yes. Again, it's not just about performances, it's what he brings off the pitch. He brings trouble, doesn't he? Yeah. Third, Alanga. Yeah. Second, Verts. That's quite high, I thought. That's quite high. Is it? Yeah, I think so. Why does he get wrapped in cotton wool?

1:15:05I don't understand it. I feel like he's actually worse than that, though. He's actually been injured. Verts has played all season and been chicked. At least he's played. Over then against Burnley, Wolves and Leeds. You're getting more out of your money, though. Just to quote a pretty knowledgeable guy to my left, he's shown signs. Yeah, but... You can't tip her around a£120 million player. ever in Premier League history has shown signs. I'm in the camp of saying this thing. No, Isaac was more than that. Yeah. Oh, it's the second most. It's 125 million euros. Do you think that's acceptable? I feel like, but you're letting Isaac off the hook and then...

1:15:37Because he's been out all season? But at least you're getting, yeah, at least it's a worse sign in all school then. It's not his fault he's been injured. It is. He didn't have a preseason because he was on a fucking strike. He broke his leg. Shouldn't be in, should be training then. He would be fitter. I think we've seen, We haven't yet seen Isak have a full run of games being fully fit for Liverpool. So at the minute, I'll hold my full judgment. So far, it's been a terrible signing for the money. Yeah, that's why he's fifth. Virg, we've seen him play all season and we've seen signs for this apparent amazing talent who look, at times he looks nice on the ball and tidy, but I'm going to need more than that for 120 million.

1:16:18That's absolutely fair. I've given him the benefit of the doubt. He's made them, he's coming to a team that won the league. But Liverpool have been shit across the board. I know, but then... Seven goals, 10 assists. Seven goals, 10 assists. That's true. That's all right. By the way, Virch has been good in Europe. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But that's what he's comfortable with, isn't it? He's not comfortable in the Premier League. Yeah, exactly. But I just think he's been... He's got away with murder, I think, and I don't know why. I started the season in that camp. I actually feel like Kerkers has got more shit than Virch.

1:16:46But Kerkers has been all right. First half of the season is poor, then he's got better as he's grown into it.

1:16:54Why? I mean, we can talk about it. Do you think this will be a Newcastle player at the start of next season? I don't. I don't know. I don't think... No, I don't. I think he will be because I don't think there's anyone who will spend enough money on him. I think you'll just lose money on him. No, we... Like, you're telling me a club won't buy him for like 40 minutes. The rumours are we're willing to take like 15 to 20 mil. No, no, we're supposed to be willing to take 15 to 20 mil for him. Roma will buy him. Apparently he wants to stay and Eddie R wants to keep him. It feels like they would. They signed Evan Ferguson I am kind of in the camp of look you've got him now Coventry again We know he isn't this bad We know that he isn't this bad Not a bad shot You may as well keep him Miseric Cov mate You may as well keep him Miseric Cov Like use him as our Callum Wilson off the bench and hopefully he learns how to kick the football again Yeah but like if you sell him you just guarantee you waste money At least I'll tell you what you do You start him at the start of the season I hope he gets a few goals and then sell him for more money Yeah but what's the point of keeping him when you've got Sesko and Eketi See what they're doing there lads is they're giving me a bit of jibber jibe because I said that at the start of the season Do you think it's just a system issue?

1:18:00Because obviously like at Brentford when he was probably he's had chances like a two up front with Mbemo He's had like you can say that for Volmada because Volmada gets no sight of goal Wisser has had there's a compilation of like eight cities I've watched multiple of them It's like there might be a system issue but you have chances and you're missing And what he's doing there is really fucking me off Me next This is the one goal In 10th I've got Tolu with Wolves that's so harsh why you've got Nishma I think he's been alright for their level they've not been a worse I think there's been a worse player at Wolves he's had a decent I have got another Wolves player in Tolu's Tolu's I've seen signs I've seen signs well in that case then I'll just go do you agree with that yeah I I think I know you hate Nishma he's been alright yeah I think but I think you're seeing he's been alright compared to the rest of the Wolves teams.

1:18:53Yeah, true. Compared to the rest of the Premier League footballers. How much did he cost? Like 24 million? Yeah. Nine, Volta Mata. Volta Mata? Eight, Gessand, Villa, the niche. Seventh, because I actually said I've given him the benefit about Florian Verts. Seventh? Oh. Yeah. I think, I think, well, why did you get away with it? I don't get it. 120 million. I know, yeah, and I was previously in your camp of being like this. What you're doing right now is what people were doing to Jokeres. Lewis, stop. Maybe I am. He's 120 million and you'd be like, oh, he's all right. He's actually got, you're doing what people do to Jokeres.

1:19:32By the way, Jokeres has had way more scrutiny and shit than Verts. Almost a third of the prize. A third of the prize and done three times as much. 20 goals. I don't know. I do think it's just very easy to be like, ah, Flurry and Verts, top three, worst sign-ins. Because he is. Who? All right. Fair enough. That might be the case. I was in your camp for all the periods of the year. Can you imagine, right? You're making me defend Arsenal here. Can you imagine if Declan Rice had a season like that when you signed in for 100 million? Could you imagine the scrutiny he'd have? Jack Grealish won a treble and people still said that was one of the worst signings?

1:20:13Vert has been like a ghost. Yeah, but I think that's more just a Liverpool systemic issue generally. Okay, so why Sir Bozlai been good this season? Different kind of player. Yeah. I just... What, someone who actually steps up and does it? Yeah, I feel like Sir Bozlai can fit into any team. He's sort of like... Mate, Florian Virts was one of the best number 10s in the world. Thank you, why are we just going... I put him in my world 11 at 10. Yeah, I said he is. At the time, he was. I'm player of the season. He was phenomenal. If you spend£120 million on a player with the reputation he had, I don't want to hear, well, it's not his fault that this fucking do it.

1:20:49Just be bad. You just said it's not. He's like, maybe I've gone too far down the other end of the spectrum. Let's fucking do it. It hasn't been his problem. I said it is his problem. I think maybe one, three I thought was a bit default and then I was like, maybe I'll change it and think about it. Instead of putting in fourth, you put in seventh? Yeah. Probably. Hey, you feel, you believe what you need to believe. Who's in sixth? From what? I just think, I think it's really. Fucking Brozier. Virg's been a worse sign on the ambrosia we've spent most of the season slaying Jokic as right and I don't think he's great but Virg we just I don't know why he gets away with it I really don't I thought it would just be too easy to default that it's just a shit dying and maybe he actually he's getting away with it because Liverpool in general are worse and they're not challenging for anything so there's less eyes on them I do get that I do get I think that he's probably right but I'd actually argue that should be more of a reason he should get slaying You think people are watching the top of the league and people are fucking...

1:21:50We strike Yoko Rays every week. I also... It's great though. It's funny, yeah. Don't get me wrong. I'm still going to run the agenda. I also think maybe I've got him lower because my expectations from the start of the season were way less than everyone else's. I didn't think he was going to come in and be like this God that everyone was talking about. You guys had him all as player of the season. £120 million. I actually called him overrated from the start of the year. He was so good. Yeah, but I'm just doing it on the relative level to what I thought he was going to be. 6-7. You've overthought that.

1:22:22Maybe, but I also think that at the start of the season, I wasn't expecting him to, you know, be this most... You weren't expecting 125 million. No, I thought it was an extortion rip-off. So I didn't actually think that he was going to come in and change Liverpool. You knew. Yeah, maybe. 6-7. 6-7, 5-0 Anthony Alanga. Oh, Brogia scored. What? Oh, Don. Brogia scored a goal. Oh, Jesus Christ. He's good, man. I mean, that's the more than ever I thought what he would do this season. He's actually out before Wasn't he 25 mil? He's 20 mil. He's out before He's 100 million pounds. 20 mil. I thought he was a free.

1:22:5520 million. That guy's worth 20 million apparently. Five year contract. Fucking crazy. He's shit. 23 million euros it was. And how much was Fleming? He's good. Exactly. Fourth, John Arias. Shocking. Third, Garnacho. Mainly for just attitude and just how bad he's been. Second, Isaac and first Visser. Damn daddy. Well, let me tell you the correct list. Tenth, Jokeres. Louis. No, that's not true though, is it? Yeah. No, I've got to joke and just wind you up. Having a little push and a pull there, guys. That's what you call humour. Tenth, Liam DeLapp. Ninth, Jokeres. Nice. I was just pushing Paul.

1:23:34Don't do it every time. Ninth, it's Dibbling. Eighth, Gallagher. I'm surprised no one had him really. I know he's... I changed him to... Do you know what? I feel like he's a bit... If you did this three weeks ago, I'd actually agree. Loki kept him up Yeah Literally Which is what This is my thing right He was high on my list And I thought actually The last few weeks But then I was like Actually like He hasn't been great It's only half a season Yeah He hasn't been great He was there when it mattered That's the answer thing Putting Gallagher I do kind of I still I do think they go down still I still think they're down You don't think I do I think West Ham I'm going to put them You're embarrassing mate Why?

1:24:09You don't believe that Why am I embarrassing? You're just trying to still run This West Ham agenda Why? I can believe in West Ham. You don't think they'll see it. So you don't think Leeds can beat Tottenham tonight? I think they can. No, no. Yeah. I don't think they will. We already know. And by the way, West Ham can easily beat us. West Ham can give a fuck tonight. Lewis, Lewis, we know the Leeds. We know that Leeds lost to Spurs. we know that Leeds, yeah. Leeds beat Spurs. They did. Guess what, Cavaloon got a hat-chick as well. I hope so. Seventh, Makati. I actually really like him. And he's, McAtee McAtee I think he was a fair amount He was like 5 mil He had a good game I think it was like 40 He's not playing much He's pissed poor And I really like him Actually You put him above Diblin though Well they were Similar fees really Diblin was like 45 No I think they're Similar fees I think they're both Around 40 I mean I was on the impression That they were both Around 40 McAtee McAtee But you can interchange Those I guess I thought McAtee was a bit more why's he not coming up James Mc no man go on carry on it is what it is but I still really like him he plays for me on Millwall I'm 40 manager 6th Garnaccio he is a fucking prick 25 million euros oh okay a lot of money I thought he was a lot more 20 mil that's not Dibling was like 40 mil no goals one assist yeah okay I'll probably put him too high though is that not just because Morgan Gibbs-Wright's been he's only paid 12 appearances it's difficult to get him he's had 12 appearances whereas like Dibling like come with big reputation.

1:25:41He just couldn't, I can't get anywhere near the thing. He doesn't even come off the bench. Yeah. Yeah, I probably, I probably, sorry, sorry, James. Good job, Emil Wall. Fifth, I've got Wirtz, fourth, Alanga, third, Izak, second, Wisser, and first, Brogia. Nice, mate, you didn't forget him. He's fucking useless. The fact that any professional football club is still employing this player, never mind spending 20 million pounds. Oh, I think Nuka, he's better than Wisser. no has he got more goals than this sir I would rather shoot myself in the head and then just put myself up front for an entire season than have Brozier play up front for my team he's useless do you know his goal team is it yeah my team Lewis he's got four years left on his contract at Birmingham and by the way he's going to be on he's going to be on some fucking Brozier money he'll fucking score goals next season for them Brozier yeah right at his level right at his level January will be back in the prep honestly he's going to get a fucking it's just never ending he always does it though yeah because the managers have seen signs he must be unbelievable in training you know he must be like absolutely ridiculous I think it's just because he's handsome maybe he's fucking I think it's it's a tree it's because he's been around the prep for a while because he comes from Chelsea Sky P he has a big cock that's why Scott Parker That's why he left.

1:27:11Parker left. He was too small for him. Parker Jackson and Brogill.

1:27:19I'm surprised no one had Arakadari in. That's what I'm going to say. Go on, Theo. He has got him in. That is Tolu. Oh, my God, Theo. There's no way you said that. Did you say that? I'm surprised no one's got Arakadari in. After he said Tolu. Right. Leo, you've been working on this all part. You've been working on yours all part, so this has to be... Yeah, that's a bit harsh. He's actually been all right. They're the same guy. Oh, yeah, he did as well. Wait, what? You agreed with me when I was like, he's been all right. Yeah, Tully's been all right, but Arakadar is terrible. Arakadar has been fucking shit.

1:28:03Yeah, but they're the same guy. I didn't agree if Tully's been good. I thought you did. Oh, I thought you did. Oh, that would have been funny. I don't feel like you did. We're going to see an edit on TikTok. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I've seen songs. Anyways, my list. Go on, man. Oh, God, that was funny. Bear in mind, you had half of this episode. He has been working on this and changing the news throughout the entire episode. I've got my 10 locked in now, guys. By the way, by the definition of the show, he's been changing his list. Oh, no, yeah. Yeah, but not until we start. We locked in. As soon as you start, that's it.

1:28:31Okay. You can't change it until you start. Yeah, the fact we've had this since Friday, you've just finished. I've been working on the correct answer Don't you understand This better be good Please give me a stinker A name that hasn't been mentioned Gittins I think it's 55 million 56 million euros I almost nearly He's still shit He's crap He's been out for what Why is he's acting your list then? Why is he's acting your list then? Because he was£140 million He's£55 million £45 million, mate £145, sorry Actually I suppose you guys didn't have Eze It's£300 million That's true, actually He's got 27 appearances this year, Gittens 16 in the Prem Probably more than Ezag That is probably more than Ezag Yeah, there you go In eight I've got Wolfsonwood Votemada In eight Oh Higher than everyone, though Come on He's just so much money Why is he's least It's just a Seven I'm expecting to get Shout out We've said these names In a similar position And you're like Any pushback?

1:29:44No because everyone Had them there Everyone had them In the same position Seven to lap Pushback but we have to Give them three Seven to lap Six Strand Larson Five Langer Five Strand Larson Five Langer Oh my god Theo you said Six Strand Larson Was that the move To Wolves permanently Or to the one to Palace In January To Palace Yeah. How much was he to Palace? 45. It's a lot of money. It's a hell of a lot of money. But he did make profit for Wolves, which was your argument about John Moria. He bet's Palace buying them. Right. Yeah, no, yeah. What? Don't do it about him. Yeah, but so why is he Dibbling below him then, Theo?

1:30:22Well, I think probably Strand-Larsen's arguably had more impact for Palace than Dibbling has for Everson. How? Precisely, so he should be below him. I mean, the other way around, sorry. Dibbling's had... No, Strand-Larsen... I've done this wrong.

1:30:37He's just watching his brain work out in real time. You've been doing it all the time. That is unforgivable. Fucking hell, mate. It's brilliant. No, no, I've done it. He deserves to be in the list. It's like you said his thoughts. Stan Austin shouldn't be that high, but he deserves to be in that list. What have you actually been doing all episodes? That's one mistake I made. One mistake. Can I say it? Everyone makes a mistake. Can I say one thing? I'm not trying to be picky. It wasn't that bad. Stryker's good. He's 26. He hasn't had a great season, but top 10. I think he scored four goals, I think.

1:31:16Top 10 for 45. Was it 40 or 45? Isn't he Palace's most expensive signing ever? No, it's Brennan Johnson. By the way, there's argument as well. I don't think it could have been one. There's argument as well, that's Dran Larsson to Wolves, who was signed permanently in the summer, could also be in the top 10. No chance, because they got an immediate double. Yeah. Like what I'd say is, They signed him for 40 million. He was going to get sold for 80 six months prior. I don't think it's actually bad business. I think it's harsh putting him in. I think it's harsh putting him that high. That high, yeah, I agree.

1:31:46I'm going to fuck that one off, Australian. Top five, Theo. Ilanga in five. Garnaccio in four. Verts in three. Visa in two. Isaac in one. You went to Isaac first. Here, here. I thought yeah this guy next year is going to come good I've U-turned he's not coming good can we all apologise to me because I told you he's old he's 120 million 145 million euros I think we know let him have a run of games first he's had some yeah he did have a run at the start after his injury and Slott said he's back now like he's fit now so he can start judging no but he played a run of games and he was shit trust me I was screenshotting and posting his ratings I know how many sixes this guy I understand he's been pretty terrible every time he's played, but I think going into the new season with a full pre-season, I think then you judge him.

1:32:39He doesn't do pre-seasons. He goes on strike. I think this groin issue is going to really happen. Honestly, mate, you may be absolutely bang on, but I just think... Give him a run again. I think we haven't seen yet like Isaac at his full fitness with a full run. Do you know what I mean? We've seen it with her. That's my only argument. No, I hear that. But at the moment, it has been a bad sign. At the moment. Yeah, terrible. At the moment. Horrendous. But they're all done at the moment. Might be one of the worst signings in Premier League history. Well, they have to all be done at the moment. Yeah, exactly.

1:33:12That's why I think it has been a bad signing at the moment. Right now, it's been a waste of money. But next season, we'll be talking about it might be one of the best signings. He won't be. He might back 25 goals next season. Who knows? He's going to go down for us as one of the worst signings, isn't he? I think, Lewis, you may be right about this injury thing. I think they're serious obviously it's not a prediction but I'll be worried if I was a Liverpool fan with Vizak and I'll be very worried now that Eketika is out for about a year as well and what I will say it's like we could say it's like a broken leg and stuff but like yeah remember with Newcastle like he missed so many games for us like he was great when he was in but like he no I understand that I understand that but he missed he's missed this season through something completely like a broken leg that's not that's not a recurring injury but then the groin was that's just happened that's not why he missed most of the season yeah no that's why He's came back and still injured his growth.

1:33:56No, no. I'm not denying those little injuries he's had. But the main bulk of the season he's missed is a broken leg. You can't go injury prone for a broken leg. No, but he is injury prone because he's shown it with Newcastle the previous seasons. Oh, my God. Yeah, okay. So he is injury prone. To be fair, with the broken leg thing, there is every chance he might not be the same player. A hundred percent. Do you know what I mean? Absolutely. Only time will tell. I will. He might have a good World Cup. Yeah. Yeah. Who's going to start, though, for Sweden? Should be Jokeres. It will be Jokeres, probably.

1:34:24Do they not play together? Yeah, I know. I don't know. I don't know. I have a pot of juice. They do. And a langer. Yeah, literally. I can't believe you didn't put Yokoz in. That is fantastic work, mate. Well done. I like Yokoz. He's a great striker. Anyway, we're going to move on now to Chelsea, Chelsea, who are managerless, as you know. Did you know they were managerless? You is the colour. Did you also know? The ball is the game. Chelsea remain without a clean sheet in 14 Premier League matches, is their longest run since a 15-game streak between March and May 1979. Do you know what else happened in 1979?

1:34:57Yes, I do. Best British summer of all time. Your dad was born. Ah! Is that right? Summer of 69. My dad is? 50? What? 40? Would that make him 50? I don't know. We're not far off. My dad was born in 1962. 080000 1962 64 58 Sorry everyone Shall we go on to this? Was it a heat wave? Is that right? No, what happened in 1979? Hi guys, since the start of the week of his powers Forrest won the European Cup I think they did actually They went back to back, didn't they? Do you know that your Chelsea ownership has spent 1.7 billion euros? Fucking hell Yeah, but how much have they sold, to be fair? because they have it is obviously a ridiculous amount of money they've spent but their whole strategy has been like they sell as well they do sell well yeah in fact it's like Chelsea have a lot of assets to sell so the stat is always fun to look at but anyway we're going to do a tier aren't we guys by shipping everyone off the salary they sold their woman team a tier list of all the signings they've made right it was the summer of 76 oh we got more paper that's not the song though the summer of 69 Me and some guys from...

1:36:12Well, there we go. So a caveat here. You can listen. Every permanent signing under Todd Bordy's ownership, they have to have played and they can't be on loan. Right then. So otherwise, we'd have had about 400 plays to get through. Go on then. Do we have the screen to do so? So we've got S-I-V-T-D. Lads. We've got a streaming half hour. There's so many names in front of us. You know if some people don't need Tim's discourse, do we just put them in and then move on? Yes. All right. All right, lads. Starting off with Raheem Sterling. Raheem, the dream, Sterling!

1:36:5947.5 up to 50. So is D good or bad? He's bad, mate. Wouldn't you like to know? It's green. S is a good sign in the next time. What do you think? Is the D good? Oh, it depends who's Sterling. Sterling was on the right side. Are you joking? For Chelsea? He wasn't too bad. He was fucking pumped. Towards the end, yeah. But at the start, he wasn't at all. They couldn't get rid of him, mate. This is D. 50 million pounds. They released him. Yeah, but I feel like he actually contributed. He was good. There's going to be some stinkers here. Sterling is at least played. He's got 34 goal contributions in 81 games.

1:37:37He also went on loan to us. He's at least actually played top. Oh my God, this is again... Did you remember watching him? I understand. I agree. No, I'm surprised. He was fucking pounds. I agree, shit. We started the show after this. I agree, shit, but there's some fucking stinkers on this list, mate, and Sterling's going to have to be C to be ahead of them. I think C is there. There's some stinkers coming. I've been overruled, but I don't agree. Kule Bali. He had him for a year. From Napoli for 33 mil. Cost him 13 million. Instant loss of 13 mil. C. Sterling was a better signing than the Cullaballi they fucking weren't I can't believe Cullaballi was better surely Sterling was so bad for Chelsea he's actually at least some of these didn't even contribute mate

1:38:22did you really contribute mate? did you really contribute mate? what did Sterling contribute to? 19 goals and 15 assists what did he contribute to? what did they do? to Chelsea scoring goals nice that's true but what did it lead to? what did he do there? well he made them worse yeah but I agree trust me I know he was shit at Chelsea there's just a lot more shit of people to come he's been really poor fine now Sterling as well hasn't he yeah it's what happens when you fucking star from young innit and then he's you fall off early Kula Bali was one of the better signings in Europe should we just put C he just wasn't that good C they lost a little they lost a lot well like it gets worse than that doesn't it yeah it wasn't it wasn't the worst of the pile yeah so I feel like C's Probably a better decision.

1:39:08Chuck Omeca. Chuck Omeca. 20 million from Aston Villa and sold him. Yeah, but they lost out on wages and stuff though. Because it was over the course of three years. They had a lot of bad signings, didn't they? Yeah. They had a lot of bad signings. Am I right in remembering he got horrendously injured for a... Who's that? Chuck Omeca. I think we should put Chuck Omeca in C. Actually, no, fuck it, D. We've got two C's in the game. How is he less than Sterling? He was like a kid. Yeah. and they made profit on him he was mainly bought as the to go around FFE see then see see you later Bicarela's got the S tier hasn't it great teeth on him as well definitely S tier yeah 60 million oh my god this Cassidy oh he's so he's so good looking but he's so bad oh he just looks like good on the picture he looks quite young in that picture he looks like you without a beard no he looks like Joe Fraser he does look like Joe Fraser he's Joe Fraser get Joe Fraser and see if you think he's fit who is he Tom Garry finds Joe Frazier fit.

1:40:07Who's Joe Frazier? He's like a fitness guy. Joe Frazier? Yeah. Is it Lester? He went on loan to Lester. He's got really nice eyes. Yeah. He's handsome. F-A-Z-E-R. No, no. It's F-A. Joe Frazier. No. Oh, my God. That's Joe Frazier. That guy. Smoking jokes. Oh, yeah. Get him on the pod. Where's Cassidy, then? I have no memory of this He made the club 500 grand He lost it all Agents This is an interesting one Fafana 70 million Injured for a year He's now finally playing games For what they wanted from him He was meant to be the banker The one that could never fail What about mama I mean it's you know Joe 2022 to now and playing 69 games that's a lot yeah that's so much fucking money my G get that now he probably wouldn't even start if it was a fully fit back it would be Colwell yeah um Aubameyang lads D only 10 million do we have you put it for Fana D D is Aubameyang D he was so bad for them it was only 10 mil yeah and then half a season later sold for free money well spent free goals he was shit as well I don't know what he was an issue in the dressing room running and stuff his wages would have been ridiculous another hair transplant yeah D good for a quiz answer though isn't it what is Buddy Achille you know Arsenal 35 million do you know what he's been alright he has been alright and 35 million in the grand scheme of things is not crazy I think B but is he a B though is he a B I still think he's a C really ah Actually, yeah, I think B is fair.

1:42:02Based on all these, I think he's B. No, no, no, but we're doing it again. Are we doing it in terms of just signings? I'm sorry, Badly Ashir, he's not on the same level as Sterling. He plays, he's all right. He's actually been okay for him. He is all right. I mean, he's used when he's needed, isn't he? And he does all right. No, that's what I'm saying. 35 million pounds for player. That's all right. That's what I'm saying. It's semi-effective. Throw Andrea Santos next to him whilst we're at it then. He's decent, man. I like him. I think B for him as well. Do you think there's a future about Andres Santos?

1:42:31Yeah, I like him. I think he's good. What do you like about him? A reasonable fee. Energy. What do you like about him? Breaks lines well. I think he progresses with the ball well. I think he's tidy. I do think they play him too high sometimes. I think he's more of an eight. Deep line, yeah. I think they play him in the ten usually away from home, don't they, where it's like a bit more protection, I suppose, but I think he's good. Hey guys, we've already done Fofana. Aha, I think you've done that. Remember Agro Santos? I can't remember. Wait, who is David Fofana? David Dachau for Varner. He went to Burnley for a bit as well, didn't he?

1:43:00What position? Stryker. I don't remember him. 10 million. And none of us know him, so that screams D, surely? I have no idea. He was on loan at Strasbourg. And he had zero goals in full games. He's still at Strasbourg. And he's on his fifth loan. I mean, he's destined to be at the... Who was that Brazilian striker they had who just went out on loan every single year? Joe. No. Mama. No, he was white with brown hair. Telly's going off Wilmer. Do you know what I'm on about? Yeah, Ronaldo. Fuck, hang on. He has to go D, surely. When he first burst on the scene, he was expected to solve Chelsea's striker crisis and then he's never played again, didn't he?

1:43:38E? How do I know that? So we're putting Fafana. D. Piazzon. Oh, now we're talking, boys. No, no, no. Who? Oh, is it Lucas Piazzon? Yeah. Mikelo Mudrick. Come on, door winner. 89 mil, baby. Sorry. Hear me out. So. Hear me out. Isn't he just got done in a game? By the way. No, no. By the way. He's trying to get off it this summer, which means he would get reduced and he would be able to play at the start of the season. But I think they've just rejected his appeal. And like. Oh, so the Olympics then. I think it's gone even longer. By the way, a very similar output to Sterling. Yeah, but he did cost the club like $60 million.

1:44:16Do you realise how misleading those stats are? We know how bad Mudrick was. No, no. I was saying I'm really surprised that Sterling actually contributed that much. I thought he was worse. and that's where he should be D yeah this is a D yeah Madrid's a D Madweke do you think he could go down as the worst Premier League signing ever no no Izak and Wiss has got a lot of down I think we did he's definitely up there did we not do this as a segment and a couple people put him first he has to be up there oh yeah he is actually up there 70 million almost 90 million pounds I think Izak's going to take him there no but when he's been banned for four years yeah he won't be banned for four years don't even recoup the money do you how long's it been two years Madweke he's a good sign I think that's and they made and they made profit I'd go B yeah do they not go A I mean like this is great he was alright Chelsea fans hated him as well he was alright though wasn't he and he made profit he's done well and then they've sold him for 22 million extra surely the next one's an A like if we're comparing Gusto is an A I think Gusto's brilliant he's been bad lately what the last year or so Gusto's been poor yeah I think he's been alright I feel like we're calling from our resident Chelsea correspondent he hasn't he's been the last year or so he's been really poor for them he's got a feeling from Rhys James we're talking about yeah I know it's an impossible task but he has been shocking would you not say Chelsea have been shocking I think for Chelsea for B maybe actually an A based on their but on balance of his time at the court his first year he was really good this is sort of based on transfers though we don't just hype him up because Chelsea have been so bad that's a good transfer but it's not an A it's not an A transfer an A transfer in Arsenal is like a better player no no no this is relative to the club though surely no that Emilia Quid pretty much plays every game when Rhys James isn't there even for Chelsea Gustav's not in here last season he was really good but that's a B player this season Chelsea in general have been shit so if we had to play that's a B player he's a major part of that though I've always read that's a B player 130 games in three years yeah B players you come in and you play consistently and you do decent is when you're starting to spearhead the team when Chelsea are fully fit he doesn't get near the team does he really it is when you're one of the main men and S is when you're like the key player you want to put Rhys James in the field isn't it In Cuncu, fucking hell.

1:46:23D. Wait, no, we're on Fernandes. Oh, Enzo Fernandes. So we said B for Malagos, though. I've never liked Fernandes. He can't be here. Enzo's A. Enzo's an A. I've never liked him. He's been so good the last year. No, not S. Not for 100 mil. 100 million? I think for 100 mil, I think what he's delivered and done, I'd expect for that money. Yeah, absolutely. So therefore, I think he's just, he's delivered. Are we not falling a little bit corporate to recency bias with this sort of stuff, though? Because he has taken his game to a new level this season. I agree, but... His first season, he was great.

1:46:53How old is he? Still young, yeah. I think he's brilliant. He's such a diverse player as well. I hate him, but... I don't like him either. Yeah. I think... I'll go A, personally. Would you say Chelsea went to Arsenal? 120 million. Would you take him? Well, Enzo? Yeah. 120 million. So much. 120 million at Arsenal? No, don't do it. Not your money, isn't it? No, fuck that. No, I wouldn't. It's not your money. You spent double that on Eze, so... Yeah, and he's shit. I don't think I would. I wouldn't. Well, Uncuncu. D. Yeah, this was a disappointment. For expectation. Yeah. Everyone thought he was going to be fucking good.

1:47:32And also the fact that you just, like, every time you looked at him playing football, you knew he had that fucking balloon in his sock. Yeah. Oh, I did my head in. Literally. Do you know what I mean? It's always in his sock. No matter how shit he plays, always in his sock. Every game for Leipzig prior to him arriving, it's phenomenal, yeah. Balloon compilations. But then, saying that, he did have a few moments, didn't he? His record wasn't horrendous And they did recoup Some of them weren't they Is it a D Is it a C I think he was It's a very quick loss Was he worse than Sterling No You really have an alpha But Sterling got released They bought him for 50 odd million But he was old Mudrick in C He was old Should I sign you for 50 million That's a bad signing Mudrick in C I am starting to come around to Sterling I was going to say Definitely not Mudrick Yeah let's move Yeah let's see I still think Sterling should be bottom Now alright Hit me out, lad.

1:48:19I think he was all right. Hit me out. Only 32 million. Is he going to get himself a move to Bayern at the end of the season? Yeah, they're probably going to get money. He scored goals. It's B, man. Bayern are not going to keep him. He got a one in two goal contribution. That's pretty good. Just because he's called Nick Lins Jackson. Considering they had a striker crisis. They'll get money more than that back for him as well. Some of them want him back. He almost fell almost under that Darwin Nunes bracket of just like, he's a bit mental, isn't he? He's a bit shit, but he's actually good. He just wasn't a great finisher.

1:48:45And he always scored the harder finishes. Obviously we all know who Diego Marrera is Yeah Do you know what he has Look they turn around for profit and he played great in that one game Yeah In S Uh S What on the business side Should we just put him in S and see see what people think Do you ever wonder you know players like this They want to be looking They want to be looking It was like when we made the milk team and we just had who do we have in Scott McTominay You know this you know this bloke Just put him in put him in S He's a professional footballer Who's probably on loads of money He's paid for Chelsea He's done great Who's that?

1:49:26Top signer Do you think that's just sick? Just because you get pictures of where you go I'll tell you who's done well out of all this Strasbourg I think he's the 8th player to have played for them already You're telling me they sold They did sell to their own club They didn't really make any money I don't get it because we got two points for donating to our foundation. We had the rules changed when we were linked with Nevers, so fought on the lawn. It's not about, yeah. All right, mate. It's not making it about yourself. So where are you having Diego? Put him in S for that. S, S, S. Yeah. Look at Chukwu.

1:50:00I made a profit. They actually did. He's all right, you know. He's been all right. He's all right, yeah. I've been impressed with him at Burnley. Didn't really get a run out of Chelsea, so I mean. Just a C, yeah. Yeah, from a business side of it. He's not B. He only played 15 times. Yeah, go see. De Sassi! Do you know what, boys? Diego Marrera's having a good season at Strasbourg. De Sassi was so bad. Yeah, it's crazy because he's actually very good at West Ham. I think he's just good in a... 13.5 as well. Yeah, yeah. Low block kind of stuff. That's a lot of money, that is. For a centre-back. Yeah.

1:50:33A centre-back. But wasn't he... He was so crap at Chelsea. But he was always played at right-back as well, right? From my memory, I think. Like, he was just always shipped out at right-back when they needed a player there. Well also He'll be coming back To Chelsea in the summer Yeah Probably summer Get rid of him And then shipped off again To Coventry D Yeah I was going to say They're not going to see Much of that money Nearly 40 million Every time he played He was fucking honking They called him disaster Robert Sanchez Oh this is an interesting one C Where is Sanchez Oh there he is Sanchez 20, 25 million you know He's crap I know I think he's dog shit He shouldn't still be playing 25 million though Absolute pennies he's I mean it's a C right next up where are we putting Sanchez oh sorry happy to put him in C he's not on the same Kaisardo into A then S S sorry S to Kaisardo surely right there the three goats under 50 million he's Lavia not a D yeah I think he's D look he he didn't play at all he's barely played and he's still just 53 mil so much man he actually had such a good rep come from Southampton as well yeah he is class no he is Yeah, he's just not.

1:51:42Yeah. Oh, Denzel Washington. Denzel Washington. 17 million. What? Big fan of his films. D. 17. Weird way of spelling. D. I don't even know who that bloke is. Yeah. Petrovic. That's a good sign of mine. From New England Revolution. Flipped for double the amount. He was all right at Chelsea. He wasn't awful. When he played. He was pretty bad. You think? He's been decent at Bournemouth. That's not a good sign of mine. They doubled the money. He was bad at Chelsea. Doubled the money though. I'd just say Is he a better keeper than Sanchez? No I might be at the moment I don't think he is He's doing a better job at Bournemouth I think C's fair Kepa did alright I think C's fair isn't it And Kepa's the worst goalkeeper I've ever seen Yeah that's fair to say I'd rather Lewis Bowden in goal Petr Specs Petr Specs And you'd be lucky to have me What a Chelsea football club Yep Cole Palmer Petrovic in Where are we putting C S for Cole Palmer of course I was going to say are we jumping straight to an S tier for Cole Palmer Yes Yeah I mean Even now how bad he's been this year Oh come on He's taking the piss He's cost 42 million Yeah but I mean like Why are we just assuming that he's Straight up in the top bracket Because he's really fucking good at football I'd like to nominate A pitch side all time stinker That is 42 million Saying that Cole Palmer's not worth His 40 million You get two You get two Cole Palmer's 85 goal contributions In 128 I'm only posing the question For 40 million Because a player who's barely played Never propose that question again.

1:53:12He's had a poor season, yeah, but we know why, don't we? 40 million. He needs to grow in surgery. I'm literally trying to create a different discourse. He's fucking been in quick. Wrapping everything off, right? He's less than Lavia. Yeah, but we gave Enzo credit for being good this season. Cole Palmer's gone the opposite way. He was also good last season. It's fucking been in quick. I'm saying Enzo's getting better for his career at Chelsea, whereas Cole Palmer's going the other way. I know, but so far, as a signing, he's been immense. He's 10 million less than Unconquered. do you think he won them the Club World Cup he got them a badge for four years I'm only trying to come at a different angle Will was about to ask the same question do you expect him to come back do you think he'll be a Chelsea player and B he'll hit the heights again he costs 200 million less than his own brilliant do I think he'll be a Chelsea player next year and do you think he'll hit the heights that he once did depends if he gets yeah he'll be back he's 26 million more than Petrovic Palmer's going to go to the World Cup but if he doesn't go to the World Cup I wish he didn't man I wish he'd just stay at home get a surgery don't worry lads I will yeah that was a weird one from you that was crazy Gisby all bought for 30 million yeah but what I was thinking is the bigger players at this we have to Rave no Rave you're in a stinker bought for 30 sold for 28 that was bad business from them can I just say why did they get rid of them he was good in that conference for them the conference yeah he was he just he never got a run of games but also I'd go see do you think they regret this like letting them go No.

1:54:40They also had a few more 10s who would play ahead of him. I think he was. He probably would have been there. I also think he fell under the category of being put in the wrong position a little bit. At Chelsea, he was kind of in the eight. Now he's in the 10 for Everton. They could have done with him this season, actually. That's what I mean. He's went on and done. Everyone knew he'd go on and do. Yeah, but we can't base it on Everton. It's not good business from Chelsea. Oh, no. I know it's not good business from them. I'm just talking about just in general football. Like, they fucked it. See.

1:55:07Oh, do you know what I think of that? Okay, that's fair Toastin He's a free Yeah, we were about to get him And he's shit Wait, where have you got He's a free though Yeah, no, he's free You can get him in C But he's fucking shit anyways He's not No Toastin was a free That's Yeah, he's not good No, it's a C It's not a B I'll tell you why Because I've got your Toastin What? I swear Toastin I know you keep saying his shit And all that But like But do you think he's good enough To be a B? I feel like a B Is someone who's like a He's free Toastin's a C, man But he's not good enough. I understand he's free, but he's free because he's shit.

1:55:41You know what I mean? But like, he's good enough to get a C, but he can't be putting Torsten in a B side of a Chelsea. He's been pretty poor at times. What's his wages? He's supposed to just be back up, isn't he? Actually, yeah, maybe B is fair. I don't, I think there's, it's Chelsea. I've actually cost him. That's what I mean. We have got Baddy O'Sheel in there. Free. He's free? He was free. Yeah, we could be. I'll go be. He keeps hitting the price. He was 40 million less than Palmer. Yeah. Fuck it. Oh, I didn't expect you to put it that way. You could get 40. You're with it. You could get infinite amount of Torsons for Parma's Grimes.

1:56:13Come on, let's wrap this. Renato Vega. Bought for 12 million from Basel. Sold for 26 million to Villarreal in a year. Double the money in a year. Great business. A. Yeah, let's rattle through these now. Yeah, B. C. I'm nuts. C. I know they made profit, but it's not a transfer that blue Chelsea away. Do you know what I mean? Gouy. Gouy. Gouy. D. He's been shocking every time. Gouy. Go away Jorgensen 5 mil gone maybe C actually ah fuck him throw him in D fuck him Jorgensen isn't Goey sorry I know he's online but is he not he might be the future no Jorgensen D as well 21 mil just really they just went through just saying all their goalkeepers have been shocked they just spent 20 million on shit he's not been worse than like Sanchez he has he has he's been way worse than Sanchez yeah he can't hold a place down if he's getting game time can he Sanchez comes straight back in he was literally bought to replace Sanchez and then got yeah do you not remember when Chelsea had like 15 goals this one's interesting Pedro Neto Pedro Neto B yeah I think B he's not quite done it for me to tickle my testicles I don't know he's quite good 19 goals 17 assists I think he's I think he's been alright at times B not fair he's not Enzo level that's what I mean I think B is fair I think he's been good.

1:57:35He's been one of their more successful signings. Is he good enough to take Chelsea back into there? Probably not. So you think he's got limited time at Chelsea? I keep farting over there. Aaron Anzaleminino. He's back on loan to Strasbourg. Obviously you have to buy him from Boca Juniors. 16 million. That's fair. Jao Felix, D. Yeah. Do you think Jao Felix is into money laundering? No, because he's actually really talented. Is he into money laundering? He might be. I don't know. Do you know how Who's the striker Morata Yeah Morata Are we going D Jao Felix yeah Yeah Estaval 100 % Yeah I like that Estaval Yeah Estaval's an A Estaval's been class He's an A Yeah but Young as well though We are projecting a bit No but he's been Brilliant when he plays We've seen him and gone Yeah he's going to be the bottom So can I ask When he's 20 million What does 20 million Up to 51 mean They'll be add-ons Add-ons If they win They're not going to win anything Are they You can say Will he come good But it's quite low risk for the initial payment.

1:58:35He has been. Like 29 million is actually low risk. The only issue he's got... Is he been as good as Enzo? Is he the same tier as Enzo? Well, Enzo's fucking half a pound, yeah. Enzo's like older and... He only had three quarters of a season. One issue for Esteval is that the hamstring injury is quite bad. And I just hope he doesn't use that yard of play. You get 3.3 Estevals for an Enzo, so... Liam De Lapp.

1:59:01I feel We've got to do it objectively Surely it's bottom tier right Yeah it just has to be Do you think De Lape will be at Chelsea next year? No I think we'll fucking decide He needs to play football Right go on He'll go back to Lachia Garnacho D D Do that again Just so you don't have Tom saying rattle through them Right Garnacho D D D Move on No not even discussing that Jao Pedro Yes With the big dogs eh He's been classed for them this season he's been probably their best player I get you but like that's like he's been their only shining line I know but when you look at S those four names are the top yeah when you look at S those four are the top names of like for£60 million to come in and be Chelsea's nine which by the way has been one of the hardest things to do and get 30 goals and assists in 50 games he was really good at the Club World Cup like they've been struggling as well Reeve do you think he's been really poor since Christmas though this year

2:00:26Yeah who's in S maybe B for now B B for Hato I think he will become an A yeah I think he's really good yeah I fucking love that Gittins D yeah D Konkani oh yes Dario Esugo mate Gittins I'm so disappointed in Gittins you know really well you had big expectations from all the games you watched of him yeah I watched him all the time at Dortmund at£50 million as well he'd be upset Jamie come on man sweat out Esugo D We're ending on the big names here. We don't even know who he is. We're ending on the big names here. Saar. D. And then we have... Mate, sorry, also... Amoogle, yeah. Tom, I know you made a light-hearted joke about the West Brom thing, but it's so serious.

2:01:08The amount of fucking Strasbourg is on here is ridiculous. Cheats! This is ridiculous! Amoogu. And why a Man City not getting charged for all their fucking transferring shoes? Fuck Chelsea! So, looking at the list, there's only about... I'm not saying, no, I'm just saying there's about seven good signers. Yeah, it's comfortably the top four should be there for a reason. Quick predictions for the FA Cup final on Saturday. City will win. City will batten them. City. City 2-0, sorry. Why did I say that? But Chelsea do it, though. They do. Under the radar. They did get a draw at City's start of the season under what's-his-face.

2:01:40What's the guy's name? Oh, yeah. McFarlane. McFarlane. Seth McFarlane. What's the guy's name? It's Seth McFarlane, man. Who are you on the ballot? McFarlane's right. Oh, yeah, Mariska's in charge of me. It's Martin. What? Who's in charge of Chelsea? Oh, Martin McFarlane. Marty McFarlane Farty McFarlane right anyway who cares we'll see you next week we love you all thanks for 50k
