Dan (00:01.102)
Hello and welcome to Red Red Blue, I'm Dan Adams.

Diaz nuts (00:04.632)
Dominic Adams.

Andy (00:07.088)
I'm Andy Adams. I'm here for it today.

Dan (00:10.03)
So it's been a game week of twists and turns with a boatload of points coming from two separate hat tricks. 31 now is done and dusted and we're staring down 32. We're going to look at the games coming up here and they gloat a lot about the league tables and then we'll talk about the changes in our teams. So I guess we'll just get stuck straight into it. The games kick off tomorrow, starting with Crystal Palace versus Man City. So what the fuck with City yesterday?

Diaz nuts (00:34.328)
What the fuck was that?

Andy (00:35.408)
Yeah. I can tap.

Dan (00:36.494)
of the day before even.

Halland on the bench, De Bruyne on the bench, Stones on the bench and then Philly Fordham does three.

Andy (00:39.792)
Welcome, Pap.

Andy (00:45.616)
He doesn't care. Doesn't care. Does he? Doesn't care about fantasy football. He's just doing what he wants.

Dan (00:52.366)
and you only don't think he does?

Diaz nuts (00:54.872)
It's been a bit of a prick.

Andy (00:55.088)
No, it's not very nice. Yeah, didn't help anyone out, did he? I think, you know, one thing I was thinking looking at the fixtures for this week versus last week is like the fixtures, like last week was like amazing fixtures for most of the good players. This week it's like kind of meh fixtures for a lot of the good players. Like, cause 50 away palace, I think they'll win, but it'll be like, it won't be as good. They won't be like the last game. I think they'll win like a two one or something.

Dan (01:24.302)
Benz who plays, I guess how I'm gonna get on the pitch this time.

Diaz nuts (01:27.512)
You would think so, given the fact you got no minutes last time round.

Andy (01:32.496)
Yeah. He was having a rest, wasn't he? Now he's fully rested now.

Diaz nuts (01:34.84)
You can't be rested all the time, otherwise you'll lose form.

Dan (01:40.398)
But they said when he first came into the team, and I believe people were talking about this, is he ever going to get a rest or taken out? And Pep's point of view was he's young, he's fit, he'll just keep playing every match. And all of a sudden now he's not playing. Is it a performance thing or is it a fitness thing?

Andy (01:55.568)
Well didn't we talk about this last week? Like the last few weeks? I mean he's not been the most expensive player in the game the last six weeks. 856 ,220. And before that was another two.

Dan (02:11.918)
So is he essential still? Is he a cap essential still?

Andy (02:16.208)
Probably probably Because like the week you don't will be the week that he does like a 13 point week. Well, although to be fair He's had it's actually really bad that he's had in since game week 13. He's had one double digit week and that was a 12 pointer against a 13 pointer against Everton in all in Every how many goals has even had in that period? So since he came back in game week 22, he's had to

Three, four, four goals in like a 10 game span. Not good.

Diaz nuts (02:55.928)
Not good at all. But you're still not gonna drop him.

Dan (02:56.206)
Not great. So.

Andy (02:59.216)
Do we? Do we drop them?

Diaz nuts (03:02.584)
It's a bit late to drop him now. Also because as soon as you drop him, you have to do a lot of different transfers to get the value back in different places.

Andy (03:05.104)
I feel like...

Andy (03:11.44)
Well, no, because like I could do a double. I could drop him and then put in Stalin and drop him down to like one of the Ivan Tony level people.

Dan (03:23.982)
But would you want, and then I will come on to it when we get to Liverpool match, is Salah worth it now? Because he went off for 60 minutes.

Andy (03:28.144)
I don't... It was a bad example but like, Sawa or Sun I guess. Like Sun I think might be worth it right now. I don't know. Yeah, they're all bad. Everyone's bad. I should just stick with what I'm doing. I'm not gonna change anything.

Dan (03:36.59)
points last week. Already the premium is worth it.

Dan (03:45.358)
Foden obviously got the hat trick. Do you think that means he's going to get arrested this game or is he going to get put straight back in again?

Diaz nuts (03:51.32)
What's he get arrested for?

Andy (03:52.688)
He hasn't... He doesn't rest Phil. Phil doesn't need a rest. Phil hasn't had a rest. Hold on. Phil hasn't had a rest since game week 12. Phil's been with refs.

Dan (03:53.71)
Well, it's Crystal Palace though. When's the next?

Dan (04:03.854)
Okay, well, Highland hadn't until gameweek 31.

Andy (04:08.976)
Phil doesn't get tired, he just scores goals.

Diaz nuts (04:12.024)
It's probably getting tired of all those goal celebrations.

Andy (04:14.352)
Exactly! It's getting hot, all these hat tricks are getting tiring.

Dan (04:18.862)
I think the funniest thing I read about Phil Ford and unrelated was that apparently in an interview he said he could go into the same barber since he was six years old. That makes a lot of fucking sense.

Andy (04:25.456)
Mm -hmm. Does make a lot of sense, given the particular haircut he goes for. You know, he's interesting as well though, because he's actually kind of streaky too. He has had that since Game Week 25, actually, do since Game Week 23, because it points it out there. 23 -2 -3, 11 -15 -2 -3 -20.

Dan (04:36.398)
Mm -hmm.

Dan (04:50.254)
Yeah, very streaky.

Diaz nuts (04:52.184)
He's hot, he's cold, he's Phil Foden.

Dan (04:55.662)
But for the price that he is, if I remember rightly, he's not cresting nine, is he? He's like seven or eight.

Andy (05:02.704)
8 .2 I got him for.

Dan (05:05.326)
which doesn't feel unrealistic given what you're scoring.

Andy (05:09.584)
Is that what I got him for or is that what he's worth? How do you even figure it out anymore? No, I got him for 7 .8. Oh, that's robbery. Even more robbery is Karl Porma next to him at 5 .8. Oh, Karl.

Diaz nuts (05:18.072)
Please.

Yeah, he's worth 8 .2 now. I can tell you Phil Foden was worth 8 .2 now.

Dan (05:25.806)
I wonder how you know, Dom? If there's any consolation, I had to do the same with Palmer, so he's finally in my team as well.

Andy (05:27.888)
No!

Andy (05:33.168)
Dom's keep Dom's keyboard only has one button and it's panic. Just hammers it.

Diaz nuts (05:39.512)
How do you spell knee jerk?

Dan (05:41.838)
Dom's one of those stock market brokers. Bye bye bye!

Dan (05:49.262)
What other city asset, if you've got Hallum because you feel like we still have to although we're not sure on that and we've got Fordham even though he's a bit streaky, like what's the other city asset then?

Andy (05:58.448)
I do have a city question for you. What was Noah's plan going like, onana to Edison, then back to Edi - no, Edison to onana, then back to Edison again?

Dan (06:08.558)
So Dom, do you wanna tell us what happened with Noah? Cause he called you to sort his team out. So that was pretty fucking shady of you to put him in the dump like that.

Andy (06:14.576)
I can't just keep just keep swapping them. It's fine.

Diaz nuts (06:15.608)
I didn't do but many do. This was a while ago he called me.

He called me in like game week, what, like 25 or something. No, we spoke about my birthday, but we didn't speak about like fantasy football. I'm going to get the call logs up. This is.

Dan (06:24.622)
No, he said he's brought you this game week.

Andy (06:27.728)
Oh wow.

Dan (06:30.99)
Oh, he said he spoke to you. He said he spoke to you and you suggested a good player in the middle, the upfront. I think he took Isaac in actually. Oh, sorry. It's the week that Isaac went off. So you got Isaac in.

Andy (06:32.272)
Oh.

Andy (06:38.448)
Wow.

Andy (06:46.511)
Okay, so not this week. So this week was all Noah screwing his own team up.

Because he did. I looked at the thing on the Fancy Football Hub where it has like who transfers in and out. Like what?

Dan (06:54.734)
Yeah, so did I. It's like minus eight.

minus eight to get Onana in, then Onana out and Edison back in. I was like, you still don't have a playing goalkeeper son because he's got Johnson on the bench.

Diaz nuts (06:59.704)
It wasn't me.

Andy (07:02.576)
You

Andy (07:08.336)
Oh well. But I think, you know, out of, out of, um, what are the names? Massey. I think it's probably just Fodman Harland for me. Those are the only two I've got. And I probably wouldn't have any. You could have a Kanji, I guess he seems to play every game.

Dan (07:24.014)
but they don't seem to keep clean every game.

Diaz nuts (07:24.312)
Yeah, but why would you?

Andy (07:27.088)
So it's not really much point.

Dan (07:30.766)
uh...

to

Diaz nuts (07:36.44)
Man City 37 I think is their one. I don't know if they've got 34 as well, let me double check.

Andy (07:40.432)
to the 37.

Dan (07:40.59)
that's what 34 is the double for Liverpool isn't it?

Diaz nuts (07:45.72)
34 is a double for Liverpool and 37 will likely be the double for City.

Andy (07:49.264)
is not the city.

Andy (07:53.808)
Yeah, but that double will be, fuzz away, is one of the two games that they have in their 37 double.

Diaz nuts (08:00.76)
but Chelsea have a double now in 35 and they will likely also have a double in 37. Same as Spurs.

Andy (08:07.76)
Yeah, but they don't have a double in 34. Yeah, and their double in 35 isn't like super tasty as Villa and Spurs.

Dan (08:08.046)
Who else do you think from Chelsea?

Diaz nuts (08:15.928)
Ah, Cole Pond was going to score anyway.

Dan (08:18.638)
Well let's jump on to Aston Villa vs Brentford then, that's the next match. I guess we can talk about the Aston Villa side of things. Watkins still out or has he come back yet?

Andy (08:18.736)
It's called Paul in the Will score, he doesn't give a fuck.

Diaz nuts (08:28.92)
He's not in my team, so he's not... I'm not worried.

Andy (08:29.328)
Look.

Dan (08:32.558)
Oh yeah, you're the barometer.

Andy (08:32.592)
50 % chance of playing. Yeah, he's yellow flagged, 50 % chance of playing.

Dan (08:37.198)
Oh no. That's the worst flag. You don't get a 25, you're either 50 or out.

Andy (08:41.488)
No, it's the bad flag.

Diaz nuts (08:44.216)
It is the bad flag. I've got Moreno who only played 19 minutes in the last game.

Dan (08:49.774)
So we were fully divested out of Aston Villa.

Diaz nuts (08:52.536)
even though they're doing really well.

Andy (08:53.008)
What else are you gonna have? You could have... Duggee Louise, I guess, is the only other one you could talk about having, because he's super cheap. Like, he's probably an upgrade over my Pascal Gross, the way he's playing lately.

Dan (08:54.99)
I'm asking the question.

Diaz nuts (09:07.096)
Yeah.

Dan (09:09.006)
And then for Brentford, you've got Ivan Tony. Anyone picking him up still?

Andy (09:13.008)
You've been doing nothing?

Dan (09:15.982)
As I'm saying, it seems to have fallen out of our conversation. I used to dive into Iventoni price range because we talk about the Iventoni bracket quite a lot in the past couple of pods, but we don't actually have Iventoni in our teams for that bracket.

Andy (09:27.024)
Because he's been capped? Like, he's rubbish, isn't he? No.

Diaz nuts (09:30.25)
He is rubbish now. He got an assist in Gameweek 30 and obviously did nothing in Gameweek 31.

Dan (09:32.142)
Maybe he needs

Dan (09:37.998)
Maybe he needs the bets in the background to make it exciting for him, like without the kind of something on the line, without the gambling on the line, he's just like, oh, it's just football now, I don't care.

Andy (09:46.)
It's not getting as dope for me, no.

Dan (09:48.59)
We'll skip past Everton vs Burnley and we'll jump straight into Fulham vs Newcastle. So obviously that's Isaac vs Munez, that was the big gamble that did not pay off this week.

Diaz nuts (10:00.184)
Oh, damn.

Andy (10:00.752)
I mean, it did for everyone else, just not for you. Because no one else went moon is... Because I was really stupid, no one else did that. As I said on the pod last week, the most done transfer will be Watkins to Isaac. And it was, and it won't.

Dan (10:04.334)
That would be, uh... No.

Diaz nuts (10:06.36)
you

Andy (10:20.272)
You zed when you should have zed.

Dan (10:22.798)
I've gotta try to change up a wee bit, I'm third in the league Andy. Can't just keep templating.

Andy (10:26.448)
Oh, you should just give up now because I've won. It's all gone now. Cooking again now. But as, as for Uniz, I think he was a flash in the pan. I wouldn't have him now.

Diaz nuts (10:33.592)
So that's seven game weeks.

Diaz nuts (10:41.24)
Seven game weeks, right?

Dan (10:41.422)
Did you really have to count that on your finger, Tom? And get it wrong?

Andy (10:43.504)
Fixed ends.

Diaz nuts (10:46.872)
It's Friday, six game weeks.

Dan (10:50.958)
What about you, Zach? Staying in? Still feel good about it?

Diaz nuts (10:54.808)
Gracias, y son fo.

Dan (10:57.646)
Mm.

Diaz nuts (10:59.192)
He's what in the past three games 850 and six?

Dan (11:03.822)
Yeah, but did you watch the match though?

Diaz nuts (11:05.976)
No, I did not watch the night.

Dan (11:07.374)
He got like one opportunity, took it, fair play, one opportunity, though that's it. It wasn't like he was all in the goals and it was just a chance of more than that. He basically had one chance and took it and that was it.

Diaz nuts (11:21.464)
Listen, Dan, you only get one shot. That's what Eben Abt told me.

Dan (11:23.47)
Oh, here we go. Fuckin' hell. Obviously they've got none of their other good players back yet. Trippie is still out. Pope is dead for the season. So yeah, you're only taking E -sign then effectively. There was no one else that looked very good either in that match. Murphy skyed a couple of shots over the bar and... Who's the other boy? Gimares was playing too far back in the middle of the pitch. So... We'll move on. Luton versus Bournemouth.

Diaz nuts (11:47.64)
Poor show.

Dan (11:51.822)
I guess all we can say about that is everyone, if you have Salanki you keep Salanki, target in loot and why would you not?

Diaz nuts (11:57.112)
Yeah, I still got Slanky I think. Let me double check. I'm pretty sure he's still there. Yeah, I got Slanky still. When's the last time he did something though? He scored against Everton to be fair, but what came before that? Points went 2 -7 -0 -8 -2.

Dan (12:04.526)
Okay. That's been a while, I feel.

Dan (12:17.358)
I mean that's not bad for what it costs.

Diaz nuts (12:19.064)
Yeah, well, that's in the Ivan Tony bracket.

Dan (12:22.51)
Where we don't date Tony. The eponymously named Ivan Tony bracket with no Ivan Tony in it.

Diaz nuts (12:24.632)
We don't take Tony. So you found Muniz is in that bracket as well. And his is a lot better if ever formed. And so he went to six, 13, two, 11, two, eight, 13, eight. So.

Dan (12:31.118)
He is... He is...

except for the week I take him.

Diaz nuts (12:42.744)
Keep your eyes peeled for Mooners to do something this week instead, unless you've already taken them out.

Dan (12:48.014)
no no he stayed in, he stayed in. I had to bring Carl Palmer in. I can't keep taking uh... Palmer Gulls against me.

Diaz nuts (12:52.728)
Now, it's the same thing with Phil Ford and I couldn't keep having Andy pinging me every time he gets a hat trick.

Dan (13:01.39)
Well, it's that and he is consistent and if he is consistent then I need him as a baseline so that any of the differentials I am taking are offset by that baseline.

Diaz nuts (13:11.928)
The issue I have with both Palmer and with Foden is that they're both very unassuming people when you look at them physically and you don't think to look at them like Jesus Christ that's a superstar but somehow they fucking mink these goals every week, every week. It's crazy. Both got stupid haircuts, both got stupid goal celebrations. There you go.

Dan (13:28.622)
Both got stupid haircuts too.

Dan (13:33.518)
Yep. Fucking Palmer and his little I feel chilly things. Don't punch him in the stupid face.

Diaz nuts (13:37.496)
You're just saying that because you could do it against Manu.

Dan (13:40.59)
I am. Well, I mean, we'll get on to that one. Hopefully, Andy will be back for it because he certainly has something to say about it, but...

Diaz nuts (13:46.328)
Ah, of course he will. What's up for the next game then? After looting.

Dan (13:51.726)
Wolves versus West Ham is the next one. What's up?

Diaz nuts (13:54.136)
Oh, fuck's sake. Well, we talk about wolves first then, with Ait Nuri.

Dan (13:58.894)
Oh, well actually, can we just skip back a step to Bournemouth? Because I believe, I believe they did quite well defensively. And that's where most of my Bournemouth assets are sitting.

Diaz nuts (14:02.552)
Yeah, hit me.

Diaz nuts (14:08.728)
believe in a thing called love. They've got loot in this week so it should be another good performance with regards to defensive.

Dan (14:16.782)
Yeah, because I had Neto, Smith, I've got three Bournemouth players in fact. I've gone really hard on Bournemouth. I've got Neto, Smith and Salanchi. I think it's a holdover from when they had a double game week. But it's working out pretty well, yeah. Like what is the... Defensively Smith has gone... 9 -5, 0 -0 -5. Which is not bad. Although, ominously he did concede three to Luton when they played them at home, so... Maybe Luton is a bogey team after all.

Diaz nuts (14:26.776)
studying well.

Andy (14:34.288)
you

Diaz nuts (14:42.904)
Uh oh.

Andy (14:44.464)
Thank you.

Dan (14:48.366)
We're just saying Bournemouth defensive assets seem to be working out pretty well, Andy. You've got like Neto, Smith and a few others.

Andy (14:53.744)
Yeah.

You don't know who's gonna play though, I guess. It's the problem because half of them are injured. I guess Smith and Neto would be the only two I'd pick. I remember at one point I had Senesi but then he got injured.

Diaz nuts (15:05.656)
I remember that, that was a good one.

Andy (15:07.824)
That was not a good week. Luckily we've recovered since then.

Dan (15:08.238)
Remember the good times Dom, remember the good times.

Dan (15:14.094)
Okay, we're going to skip on to Wolves versus West Ham. And I guess the question is who, if anyone is back for Wolves at all?

Andy (15:19.536)
Doesn't matter. I know he's gonna play again, isn't he? Probably. Oh, so good. That was an inspired pick.

Diaz nuts (15:23.928)
Fucking itenory bastard.

Dan (15:24.942)
How can I ignore?

Dan (15:30.606)
Hold on, though.

Diaz nuts (15:31.928)
fucking arseholes. I wish I could take my own advice. I really wish I could take my own advice.

Andy (15:33.328)
Good job by me on that one.

And it says he's playing up front again, against Wetspa.

Diaz nuts (15:39.704)
Ugh.

Dan (15:39.854)
That's exactly what you said last week, Dom. You said, oh look, there's a night in Norrie, players on the left, up front for... Fools?

Diaz nuts (15:45.688)
I've already done my one substitute and that's to rectify the fact I don't have fucking Phil Foden.

Dan (15:50.478)
You need to read Fight Notified in Nori as well.

Andy (15:50.704)
Oh

Diaz nuts (15:52.888)
I might do that double hit actually. You're right. Why not?

Andy (15:53.52)
You

Dan (15:56.078)
Oh, Jesus.

Andy (15:56.432)
You two all - all - it doesn't matter anyway now, does it? I'm like, aren't you like 150 points behind or something?

Dan (16:02.574)
It is a horrific number of points behind.

Diaz nuts (16:03.16)
The issue is that I'm going to have to pick people that you don't have to gain ground.

Dan (16:09.934)
That's what we were saying just previously was there is a baseline team now. There is a template baseline whenever you want and differentials. You have to have enough of that baseline. So when you pick a differential, it's not just offset by the baseline doing what it's meant to do. So that's the difficulty. That's why I've suffered with you having Palmer. I've picked differentials, you know, kind of actually popped off this week. Great, but I didn't have Palmer. So that was completely negated. And that's the frustration.

Andy (16:10.736)
I don't... Yeah.

Andy (16:36.112)
is bad. The only one I'm thinking about like, yeah, so I agree there is a template like the temp and the template is like, there's at least a few template players, right? It's like Gabriel and Saliba, like everyone seems to have because like Arsenal was only conceded four goals in 2024 I saw this morning, which is insane. And so maybe I should go triple Arsenal defensive suckers still injured. And then I guess Saka, Foden, Palmer, Alanki, Howland, maybe Isaac now.

Dan (17:00.974)
Yep. Yep.

Dan (17:06.99)
I want to go hard on these like yet, but I'd say you've missed out probably Salah for most people and the

Andy (17:13.872)
I haven't had Salah for weeks. I haven't had him for weeks and he's... No. He's been absolute dogshit for the last... Since game week 21 when he got injured he's gone 0000 11 00 171.

Dan (17:17.102)
But he has, except for last week, has done exceptionally well.

Diaz nuts (17:33.368)
You can't really take the zeros into account because he's not fucking playing.

Andy (17:36.816)
Okay, but like you can, because you have to own them through the zeros.

Dan (17:39.726)
You have to have 30 million spend time for it, yeah.

Andy (17:43.824)
You don't want a 13 million player on the bench. Whereas Luis Diaz, who I do have through that same span, has gone 12 -5 -9 -5 -7 -3 -2 -10 -6.

Dan (17:44.142)
Okay.

Dan (17:57.294)
Yeah, I've got him as well. So in effect, you probably have DSN in there, in effect you've got seven or eight players that everyone should own. Now for you, very little space to actually play with and it's not in the positions you'd normally expect because you effectively filled the forwards, you've mostly filled the midfields. So you've got like a defense, the goalkeeper maybe in a midfielder that you can start fucking around with to try and make points up. That doesn't feel great.

Andy (18:21.008)
Yeah, I think it's dangerous not to own, you can't not own Saka, Foden or Palmer right now with like the way, well, Saka's probably the, and actually, interestingly, Saka's probably the most dispensable out of the three of them, because the last three weeks he's done two, three, zero.

Dan (18:31.118)
Mmm.

Dan (18:38.862)
With the injury, it's interesting to know if he'll be in the team this week, in fact.

Andy (18:43.504)
Yeah, if he's not, then you want to maybe flip him to Odegaard. I might flip him to Odegaard this week if he's not going to play.

Diaz nuts (18:48.728)
Yeah, Teta said they're about to have a training session today and it depends on how Saka does in that training session as to whether he's in the team or not.

Dan (18:57.518)
to Arta as a broad.

Andy (18:57.52)
Odegaard since game week 25, 14 -2, 10 -2, 3, 11.

Dan (19:03.79)
I just don't like having Odegaard in my team, it doesn't feel right. He plays too far back. He does Maraud very occasionally and that must be when he's getting these points but it just feels like watching them he plays too far back.

Diaz nuts (19:05.976)
did you buy?

Andy (19:18.032)
His XG is pretty good for midfield.

Dan (19:21.71)
So the last match on Saturday is Brighton vs Arsenal. So it's valid talking about Arsenal now. I actually would be more tempted towards your suggestion of three Arsenal defense rather than going for Saka. If you know Saka is not playing rather than going for Odegaard.

Andy (19:40.144)
Double change though and I don't have two transfers so not gonna happen.

Diaz nuts (19:45.304)
What's that all about?

Andy (19:45.68)
I would though. I would. What? Yeah, because it turns out, Dom, look at what multiple hits have done for your lead position. Who could have predicted it?

Diaz nuts (19:55.896)
No multiple transfers. Fuck that.

Dan (19:56.014)
We'll need to do that towards the end of the season. What would have happened if you hadn't hit? Because it records it in that FPL game week thing.

Andy (20:01.552)
It's always, it's a painful analysis to do that one because it shows how much you beat yourself over the course of the season.

Dan (20:09.518)
Nope. How much you fucked yourself up? Anything else for Arsenal?

Andy (20:16.848)
Who's who they claim upfront these days? I didn't I saw like Reese Nelson in that game. I saw Eddie and Katia came on for a bit. Jesus was there. I think at one point.

Dan (20:18.35)
Right, oh.

Diaz nuts (20:20.024)
of it.

Andy (20:30.)
They've got like all the BT in playing against Luton.

Dan (20:32.878)
That's who Eli almost had in his team, that was gonna be his transfer. He was texting me, yeah he was texting me because he was at his Grands. And he was like, oh my god, who do I transfer in? I'm thinking about this guy, I said Jesus, not that guy. And he went, oh Jesus! I was like, no no no, I was saying Jesus don't pick that guy, you wanna pick one of these three.

Andy (20:36.976)
Who? Jesus?

Andy (20:53.232)
Do not pick Gabriel Jesus because he is not a good fantasy football player.

Dan (20:54.83)
No, absolutely useless. What's the scout saying for their setup for this game week?

Diaz nuts (21:00.536)
There'll be effort.

Andy (21:00.56)
They're saying Havertz, Martinelli, and I can't see the left hand side play because there's a Google ad over the top. It's helpful. Thanks. How do I get rid of you?

Dan (21:07.182)
useful site.

Dan (21:12.398)
Airfield team use Saka, Havertz, Martinella, who do you think Saka is going to play?

Andy (21:16.08)
Yeah, okay. And he's 75 % doubt though, they don't have any text about it yet.

Dan (21:21.39)
Mm -mm.

Andy (21:23.536)
Villa says, Geran up front. Again, no Watkins.

Dan (21:26.99)
He wasn't very good though when I watched that much. I didn't rate him at all.

Andy (21:31.248)
But the plan against Brentford though.

Dan (21:35.598)
All right, Sunday first game is United versus Liverpool.

Andy (21:37.808)
Hmm.

Diaz nuts (21:44.888)
Mmm.

Andy (21:46.575)
I don't even know anymore. Like I feel like it'll be spicy one way or the other. Like they'll score goals and they'll concede goals and they'll either come out on top or they'll lose. I have no idea what's gonna happen.

Dan (21:51.374)
business.

Dan (21:58.766)
I mean, going off last night's performance, we'll do something extraordinary, rest on our laurels, and I think our ass kicked by a singular midfielder, probably Salah this time around. The rest of the Chelsea team did absolutely nothing against us, it was just Palmer, with two soft penalties.

Andy (22:13.392)
I don't understand it. I really don't understand how you can't... Yeah, I mean, Delo, that was criminal though. Just let him go. Maguire was coming across. Like, just let him go. Just like they always have to do the one stupid thing to undermine all of the hard work. Honestly, and like in Ferguson's day, he'd get dropped for the next game.

Dan (22:33.422)
Yep, for fucking up.

Andy (22:37.648)
But now it's all like high five, slapping each other's asses, like, oh, it's all great. Like, I know, I know it's very, but you know, I think the challenge is like, yeah, like if you do something stupid, you should get dropped.

Dan (22:41.454)
Don't get dumb started, you know how it feels about that.

Dan (22:52.91)
Who'd you put in instead is the problem. Fucking Varan went off injured now.

Andy (22:54.928)
Doesn't matter. It's more about teaching a lesson though, isn't it? At this point. They're not going to get in the Champions League for next season now. I'm kind of surprised every day that they don't sack ten hard now after games like that.

Dan (23:11.118)
Yeah, I don't think it'll be the manager next season. In fact, I put money in it.

Andy (23:14.928)
No, I don't think... Looking at all the other hires that they're making off the pitch of like all these top tier people, like I don't think those people want someone else's manager.

Diaz nuts (23:25.336)
That's good though, because you'll get Garra Southgaten.

Dan (23:28.622)
Nah.

Andy (23:28.88)
The latest I saw was Deserby was like the one that's going on.

Dan (23:32.078)
Oh Jesus, I don't want to Zubi. Fuck's sake.

Andy (23:37.456)
You get what you get.

Diaz nuts (23:39.192)
You don't deserve him.

Dan (23:39.438)
You bring fantastic performances on the team for two thirds of a season and it all get really tired from playing this super hard high pressing really fast game. We got our assets kit for the other third of the season.

Andy (23:50.224)
I mean, I think that if you look though, like, isn't like Kieran McKenna, like the one that, remember they said for a while with Solskjaer that it was all the coaches fault. And now like McKenna's got, he's got Ipswich promoted, I think already from the championships of the Premier League. And then like one of the other coach, who was the other one that was in the championship? Oh, Michael Carrick's like doing really well with Middlesbrough as well. Like, it wasn't the coaches, it's these players. They need to just like get rid of half of that team.

Dan (24:01.23)
Mm -hmm.

Dan (24:19.086)
That's what it is. We keep keeping too much of the previous team and it's like an infection. It just then spreads again.

Andy (24:27.28)
Yeah, they're just like lazy doses, like half of them. Like you need to just get rid of like, you know, honestly, like keeping people like McTominay around is just like mediocre. He wouldn't be in the team like 15 years ago. Wouldn't even get close to the team.

Dan (24:41.678)
Take Fernandez out now, he's just not what he was and his negativity just brings the rest of the team down.

Andy (24:48.912)
No, I've been like, honestly, since he had that first amazing year, right, like where he was on the Solskjaer team that like squeaked into the Champions League. They got like second or third that year. And then after that, like just downhill every season he's played, like worse and worse and making him the captain was a terrible idea.

Dan (25:09.102)
So United Assets then, obviously Ganache are still tearing it up, probably worth having if you're already, you know, or even considering, but not this week because they play Liverpool.

Andy (25:20.08)
He doesn't have any doubles though does he? Do United have any double games? I don't think so. They might do because they're still in the FA Cup, right? They do, they have a Newcastle game that has to get slotted in somewhere. So it'll probably be a Gameweek 37 one. If it's not already in for 34 or 35.

Dan (25:28.91)
We are.

Dan (25:34.99)
Mm.

Diaz nuts (25:37.304)
Yep.

Dan (25:39.534)
I honestly think right now there's no one else worth taking from United.

Andy (25:44.016)
Yeah, I would take Garnacho though, and I probably will do gross to Garnacho, but not yet because I want to get people who have game width 34 doubles prioritized over the next couple transfers.

Dan (25:56.046)
Yeah. And then on the Liverpool side of things, obviously you've shown Salah's stats. 13 million, is he worth it or not? LewisDS obviously has been playing really well, tearing it up. Have they got... They had RobberOne at one point, didn't they? Is he coming back now?

Andy (26:10.576)
Yeah. Could be. I mean, who are they going to, what's their back for though? Like these days.

Dan (26:15.502)
Bradley, Kwanzaa, Dyke and Robertson is what they've got on the scout.

Andy (26:20.144)
That's a dodgy back four or any other year, I swear to God. I really hope that they just do the Liverpool thing though and choke right at the end and then say he win the league again. I think that would be like, just amazing. They did.

Dan (26:29.646)
They almost hit against the blaze didn't they? Bradley's own goal was 1 -1 until at the 80 somethingth minute.

Diaz nuts (26:35.256)
Fucking Bradley gets an assist then gets a fucking own goal. What the?

Andy (26:35.504)
Yep, they almost did.

Dan (26:40.622)
perfectly balanced as all things should be though.

Andy (26:43.632)
Yeah. Yeah. So you could, you could have Bradley, I guess he is like still one you could bring in. Um, if you want Liverpool exposure.

Dan (26:53.838)
What about Darwin? He did a thing again.

Andy (26:58.096)
I mean, I don't think he's very consistent though, is he?

Dan (27:01.838)
I'm just having a look now actually, I've set it. Put the money where my mouth is.

Andy (27:04.816)
I don't think he's very consistent. He's ninth out of 110 strikes, so he's not in the top five strikers. He's been okay, if you want like a single digit type striker.

Dan (27:12.238)
6 -2 5 -5 didn't play loot in 5 -6. Like he's always returned something. It's just not really goals it seems.

Andy (27:16.88)
Yeah.

Andy (27:21.456)
He's bad Dominic Solanke.

Dan (27:23.63)
I should end the camera for the most part.

Andy (27:25.808)
Cause... shit Andy Carrey. Well, Solanke does like 12 eights and sevens, I guess. I mean, they're both about the same player. Izak's probably better than both. Yeah, I mean, Izak in the last five, two, eight, six, 15, eight. So like Izak, I would bring in over Darwin if you had to choose.

Dan (27:45.806)
My concern there is how streaky they are, the Newcastle that is, as a team.

Andy (27:50.608)
Mm -hmm.

Dan (27:53.454)
The second game on Sunday is possibly got some choices in it. Obviously not Sheffield United, but they're playing Chelsea. So obviously, Karl Porma. It's gotta be in there. Well, is there only one choice?

Andy (27:53.712)
No good choices though.

Diaz nuts (28:01.848)
Chelsea, Chelsea.

Andy (28:03.632)
So there's only one choice, Carl Pullman? Who else are you gonna pick? Yes. There's only one choice. You guys pick someone else, but I'm just having Pullman.

Diaz nuts (28:05.976)
two choices.

Mr. Gusto.

Diaz nuts (28:14.136)
I got Mr. Gusto. He didn't do great against Manu because he got a yellow card and three goals against him. But...

Dan (28:15.982)
Who else could you have from Chelsea?

Andy (28:18.576)
everybody.

Andy (28:24.016)
Not ideal.

Diaz nuts (28:25.432)
wasn't a good start to my the relationship with gusto

Dan (28:32.462)
There is no really a Nick Jackson's kind of fallen off. Sterling's, I got 70 points away from Palmer's ability. Tassassi's 68 points in the year so far. It's like, mm.

Andy (28:37.584)
There's nobody.

Andy (28:44.368)
They don't have anyone else on the front page of players for points other than California.

Diaz nuts (28:49.304)
But they got two doubles.

Dan (28:51.246)
Yeah, that's the thing.

Andy (28:52.944)
Yeah, they don't keep clean so why would you want their defenders for doubles? And then their strikers don't score goals so why would you want their strikers for doubles?

Dan (29:03.502)
because there's opportunity and it's differential.

Andy (29:05.744)
I will Captain... I will Captain Palmer in both of those doubles, but...

Dan (29:09.678)
All right, last game is Spurs versus Notnam Forests. I'm not sure how I feel about Spurs to be honest these days.

Andy (29:20.592)
bit wanker aren't they? I mean Sun's on the first page of players, he's third in terms of form.

Dan (29:27.854)
It was 1 -1 versus fucking West Ham.

Andy (29:31.504)
Yeah, but since in the last five game weeks, there's 7 -17 -2 -10 -2. Like, I mean, he is playing where Salah should be in terms of form.

Dan (29:40.398)
Yep, and then look at also though, what about Brandon Johnson? Been playing pretty well.

Andy (29:49.008)
Hmm. Yeah.

Diaz nuts (29:50.168)
Mmm.

Dan (29:50.318)
He's gone 9818817. He's had two bad games and a streak of eight.

Andy (29:57.52)
I'm only, my only worry with Brandon Johnson is that like Kulasevsky exists.

Dan (30:03.854)
What's his minutes look like actually? That's a good point. So Johnson's minutes. He's never finished a game. He got pulled off the 89 minutes against West Ham 45, 79, 87, 27, 19, 28. Like he never gets a full game. It must be because he is getting interchanged with Kulasevsky.

Andy (30:20.368)
Yeah, Mado, Kulu, they have Javi Bonds, like they have way too many, not Javi Bonds, yeah Javi Bonds right? Like they have Javi Bonds as well now. Yeah, they have way too many attacking midfielders. Is Javi Bonds in Newcastle? Okay. So it's Mado, who are the other thingies for Tottenham? Attack midfielders for Tottenham. Cause they have, I know they have too many. Oh, Rich Alisson, that's the other one, yeah. They have a blank? What game?

Dan (30:26.446)
Yeah, have a good one. Yeah.

Diaz nuts (30:30.392)
Have a good one, this is Newcastle.

Dan (30:31.79)
New castle. They had Mado. It's Mado they had.

Diaz nuts (30:40.856)
Son, Richie.

Dan (30:43.15)
They have a blank coming up as well.

Dan (30:48.526)
Not Gameweek 34, they're blank.

Diaz nuts (30:48.632)
Beat 34.

Andy (30:50.896)
They blank in 34? Who else blanks in 34? There must be another team.

Diaz nuts (30:57.336)
There's always come they always come in to like siths.

Dan (31:00.942)
uh pass on immediate scrutiny i can't figure out which ones are missing out of the 20

Diaz nuts (31:06.968)
It is nobody.

Dan (31:11.886)
right in the school almost love love one game and the double up to be between people already played

Andy (31:12.816)
How come one team missed again?

Diaz nuts (31:17.592)
Yes.

Andy (31:18.352)
Okay, why I suppose that's so weird because they're not in like any of the competition stuff.

Diaz nuts (31:25.24)
Maybe the team they play, they would play as the double one would be.

Andy (31:30.032)
Maybe. Anyway, we're wasting too much time talking about Spurs, because if they've got a blank, you definitely shouldn't be picking Spurs players.

Diaz nuts (31:31.128)
Maybe, maybe.

Dan (31:36.174)
No, I agree. All right, Andy, do you want to run us through the Red -Red -Blue League then? I'm sure you'd be very excited to talk about it this week.

Diaz nuts (31:37.432)
This much is true.

Andy (31:44.016)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I definitely have it up right now on my screen. I'm just building the suspense, definitely not looking for it and then working on it.

Dan (31:47.182)
Yep, that's right there. Right if you looked up.

Dan (31:52.782)
Six points, and I was almost in the top ten again. Six points. Motherfucker.

Andy (31:56.912)
Yeah, could have what it should, didn't it?

Dan (31:59.086)
Second highest, except for you.

Andy (32:02.416)
Yeah, exactly. Story of everyone's life this week. They all got their asses kicked by me. The 10th was Alan Sinclair, 55 points, Eric Kalvey in ninth, Billy with 69, nice and eight.

I moved three places up to six this week with Monster Game Week 92 points in the Game Week brutally high. Connor Gunn in fifth, Ira Mill in fourth, Hobie Miller third, Tobias Scott second, and Steve Isiltof.

Dan (32:26.03)
Yeah. Double Hata.

Dan (32:36.75)
The issue is Andy, even with that 92 points that you scored there, you're still... ooooh, 150 points away from Steve.

Andy (32:46.032)
Yeah, I just need to do this for every game week till the end of the season.

Dan (32:48.11)
every game week for the next six, as Dom has told us, next six game weeks.

Andy (32:53.328)
Yep, that's the plan.

Dan (32:54.67)
All right, let's talk about the one that everyone actually cares about, the Addams Family League. In the last still is Dom with 61 points in the game week for 16 .44. And there's Dad ahead of him with 65 points in the game week for 16 .65. Then we jump into the 1700s. We have Noah with 54 points in the game week for 17 .04. Then we have me with 78 points in the game week for 17 .17.

Diaz nuts (33:00.728)
We don't.

Dan (33:21.582)
Then we have Eli with 64 points in the game for 1740 and Andy with 92 points in the game for 1772. So you're open to 32 point gap above Eli and a 9th amountable 50 point gap with me. 55 point gap. Yeah.

Andy (33:35.696)
Yep, real weak. This could be the week that I won the league.

Dan (33:41.102)
feels like that vaude moment all over again. It's very depressing.

Diaz nuts (33:43.)
Mm.

Andy (33:43.632)
Yeah, super genius and this year's Vadi was little carport.

Diaz nuts (33:48.664)
I would have said it was light nori.

Dan (33:48.686)
I should have had him a week ago. No, that's my fault. I should have had Palma weeks ago.

Andy (33:51.504)
Nah.

Andy (33:55.248)
home is one of those ones that people look at him like oh I'm not gonna pick him because he's like an attacking midfielder for a not very good team but then you look since game week 20 he's had one two three four five six double digit weeks that's better than like any player in the game

Dan (34:13.774)
My own stubbornness has defeated me this time. We spoke about it a lot actually in good number of podcasts and I should just pick them up instead of trying to pick differentials. Set that baseline and then look towards what I could change afterwards.

Andy (34:25.808)
Yeah, Palmer's got to be in the, I mean, he's definitely in the team of the season. I don't know. Like, let's see, like on total points, he's not actually topped yet. Watkins is top with 188, then Phil Foden 183, then Saka 181, Sun 180, and then Palmer 177 is the top five. So Palmer has more points than Haaland.

Dan (34:29.902)
Yep.

Dan (34:39.182)
Hmm.

Diaz nuts (34:48.44)
Say what?

If you would have just had sun and kept him in the weeks that he didn't have Asia.

Andy (34:54.992)
Yep, the whole season. We say this every year with Sun. Every year.

Dan (34:57.262)
We do. We do. Yep, we do. And what we also say every year, and I'm really going to try hard to stick to this time, is using data rather than gut.

Andy (35:09.2)
I'm about to wait until seven games to go.

Diaz nuts (35:10.2)
taking double hits.

Dan (35:11.95)
It's... Yep, data, data, data, data. Just look at the numbers. Play it as moneyball. That's the problem, because you're right, there are people like Karl Palmer, very unassuming, not in the right positions, objectively looking at it in the game week, doesn't do much. Even watching the matches, he doesn't seem overly attacking or flairful. He's just all of a sudden he's there and he's got a goal. Two penalties as well. Being on penalties was a surprise.

Andy (35:20.048)
F

Andy (35:25.328)
Not very handsome. Core level of handsomeness.

Andy (35:40.816)
Yeah, I mean, probably one of the stats that I've looked for a lot this season when I look at players to bring in is like potential for double digit weeks and like him and Foden, both of them, they have like a lot of crappy weeks, but then when they go off, they like really go off.

Dan (35:58.414)
I think I need to pay more attention to form upcoming fixtures and who's on penalties, who's on corners, like who's taken the dead ball situation because assists obviously count massively as well.

Andy (36:15.472)
pens are super important because Palma getting Chelsea pens and Chelsea are like one of those dribbler and you want Chelsea and Arsenal penalty takers because they both trying dribble it to the goalkeeper every time.

Dan (36:27.854)
I wonder how many penalties we've had this season compared to the rest. Yeah, Palmer's had eight penalties this year. With Jauh Pedro four, Alexander, Isaac four, and Mohamed Salah four behind him. That's madness. Eight.

Andy (36:32.656)
It's quite a view.

Andy (36:39.856)
Yeah, Kelsey Penns and he takes every single one. There's none of this arsenal messing around.

Diaz nuts (36:47.64)
Goddamn.

Andy (36:48.176)
Because he knows everyone else on his team shit.

Dan (36:50.094)
Yes He's like I'm the city boy. I've came from my city here that he's a fucking lifelong United fan Fuck say good. We go to have another team. I imagine him on one side and gonna actually on the other be fucking wonderful

Andy (36:57.936)
Is it? Of course it is.

Honestly, I'd probably bench Bruno for Palmer.

Dan (37:05.166)
Yep. Anyway, what changes you made to your team, Andy?

Andy (37:09.712)
I haven't yet, because I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I might, like if soccer's playing, then there's not really a great transfer to make this week, so I might just hold it.

Dan (37:20.11)
So...

Diaz nuts (37:23.32)
I'm probably going to regret this.

Andy (37:26.128)
Oh, this is gonna be a definitely, not a probably.

Dan (37:27.214)
Thank you.

Diaz nuts (37:29.88)
But I took out habits to get food and.

Andy (37:33.488)
No, that's fine. I don't think you're gonna regret that.

Diaz nuts (37:34.904)
but habits is on fire.

Andy (37:40.048)
He's on much less fire than Phil Foden over the last three weeks. 7 -5 -3. Yeah. Yeah. He was on fire. His XG against Stitsi was bad and his XG against Luton was even worse.

Dan (37:40.11)
Uhhhh

5 3 7 14 14

Diaz nuts (37:46.36)
He's on fire.

Dan (37:49.742)
It's going out.

Dan (37:54.51)
He's just kind of smoldering now.

Diaz nuts (37:55.864)
So I did that. And then I also took out Moreno.

Dan (38:01.006)
Take a hit, take a hit.

Diaz nuts (38:03.224)
I took out Moreno for Ben White.

Dan (38:06.382)
Alright, why am I in white though?

Andy (38:07.056)
That's probably okay.

Diaz nuts (38:09.944)
because he has the possibility for assists.

Andy (38:10.48)
He's... And he's the highest scoring defender in the game.

Diaz nuts (38:14.936)
That too.

Dan (38:15.182)
All right.

Andy (38:16.624)
131 from 5 .9 million, very good deal for Ben White.

Diaz nuts (38:18.84)
Jesus Christ, have you seen Ben White since week 24? He's gone 962 13 11 66.

Dan (38:26.574)
ever. But so does most of us as the prince.

Andy (38:27.376)
I'm Mike, very good.

Diaz nuts (38:28.952)
Fuck me, Ben White.

Dan (38:31.054)
I have brought Palmer and I need to set that baseline and then I'll in game week next game week I'll do my wild card ready for the double game week to bench boost So I've been interested in one next game week

Andy (38:43.664)
Yeah, I think that's probably the main reason why I'm holding my transfers and gonna have two for next week is to get a couple more double game week players in. But I don't know if I will or I won't, it depends on because you know what I don't like? I wish in American fantasy football when you play it, you can skip forward a week and then pick a team for the next week. Like you can see what the team looks like for the next week to like pick the team. I think I feel like that's one of the most annoying things that they don't have in like the

Diaz nuts (39:05.048)
Yeah.

Andy (39:12.048)
this FPL is you can't skip forward or you can see what your team would look like.

Dan (39:17.23)
Yeah. I mean, it has on that FPL game week one, you can skip a week for the vice, skip to 32 predicted points. You've got 65 predicted points and then I've got 64.

Diaz nuts (39:17.528)
Yes.

Andy (39:24.752)
Yeah.

Diaz nuts (39:29.56)
Yeah, I don't know what I got.

Andy (39:29.904)
Ah, good job by me.

Dan (39:32.974)
um says that palma and ford are gonna pull in for you again and so is harland cap harland he's gonna get 18 points apparently you heard it first

Andy (39:42.608)
Oh yeah, you're right, I can't skip forward. I don't know what you're talking about. Okay, so Gameweek 34 is the one I want to skip to. I already have one, two, three, four, five double Gameweek players already. So I need to get in another two or three probably. And Liverpool have a double, so I'll probably get Bradley in for Van Hecke is probably one of the transfers I'll do.

Dan (40:05.038)
I've got seven.

Diaz nuts (40:06.424)
Where can you do that for?

Dan (40:08.334)
I feel game week.

Andy (40:08.336)
I've got six absolutely. A fancy football hub does it as well like if you do pick and then you can scroll forwards again with 34. I'm going to message the FPL people and be like why don't you idiots do this like this would make my life much easier.

Diaz nuts (40:09.976)
FPL Gaming.

Dan (40:12.718)
Mm -hmm.

Dan (40:18.766)
cop the fuck on. What adventures challenges instead Andy? Like this week's challenge apparently was the gamesmanship one where red cards and yellow cards were worth minus five and minus eight respectfully instead. Who the fuck wants to play that?

Andy (40:32.976)
No one wants to play it. Like, the stupid thing is for people who are bad at regular fantasy football so that every week, like, you're not in the hole that you dug for yourself, like Tom.

Diaz nuts (40:41.432)
I think we should play this game next year.

Dan (40:42.606)
Don't let us do it. What if we went dumb fucking smash the draft version for example. Like you just get the authentic game modes.

Andy (40:44.112)
Yeah, there you go. It just can't play the real one.

Diaz nuts (40:47.704)
Ugh.

Diaz nuts (40:51.384)
I'm just going to set my team set and forget next year.

Dan (40:51.406)
Ha ha.

Dan (40:55.566)
I do wonder.

Andy (40:56.048)
Honestly, like, wouldn't have been bad.

Dan (40:59.022)
What would my team look like if I'd set a forget from the start of the season? I don't even want to know.

Andy (41:03.376)
It probably would be bad actually, like if I, hold on, what was my team again with what, like who would have been, because you can also go back. How can you, oh, is it?

Dan (41:07.63)
I'm gonna look at mine now. Game week one I had Onana Estupinan, Gabriel Boldoc, Odegaard Rashford -Sakason, Alvarez Gekpo -Harland. I would have been alright actually.

Andy (41:21.808)
Hmm. Gatco wouldn't have been great.

Dan (41:22.478)
No Palmer, no Foden, no, yeah.

Andy (41:26.16)
No.

Dan (41:28.75)
You had. Do you want to know?

Andy (41:29.2)
Oh, am I? Yeah, I'm gonna.

Diaz nuts (41:30.136)
I don't want to know because mine's terrible.

Dan (41:32.142)
You had Onana, Timber, Shaw, Gvardiolfoad, Matomasaka, Rashford, Odegaard, Holland and Gatpo Andy.

Andy (41:39.216)
That would have been a good team. Actually, I don't know if that wouldn't have outperformed the team I've got right now if I'd stuck with it the whole season. I didn't have Karl Pullman, no.

Dan (41:40.494)
Whatever.

Yeah, he didn't have palmito.

that and Dom you're fine you're fine listen you're fine you'll feel good about yourself you had Pickford terrible choice James who's dead a stupid nun

Diaz nuts (41:48.44)
Don't.

Diaz nuts (41:55.96)
Picklet's got the most points than Gold thinks. Close to it.

Dan (41:59.022)
Stupanand, Timber, Richarlison, Saka, Eze, Rashford, Harland, Jackson, Watkins.

Andy (42:05.936)
Okay, well Watkins was good. Jackson probably offset your Watkins pick though.

Diaz nuts (42:07.96)
Watkins, Howland, Sacka. Yeah. Fucking hell. And Timber breaking his leg in the first week wasn't great either.

Dan (42:10.35)
Yeah.

There you go. Exactly. That would have fucked you up.

Andy (42:16.624)
That was rough. Yeah, he would have been like I feel bad because like he would have done really well, you know The one thing I will say like all the players that people like ten hug might not be a good manager But my god like the people in that Arsenal team kudos and timber like super good Tim kudos actually Don't ask how we

Dan (42:19.054)
It would have been interesting.

Dan (42:32.334)
So how the fuck did we get the stupid one? How have we got Anthony? Why did we not get the good ones?

Diaz nuts (42:34.52)
Good, this is Western.

Andy (42:39.344)
No, Kudos went from Ajax to West Ham. He was in, yeah, he was in Ten Hog's Ajax team. Like he is ridiculously good. If you watch him play, like when he takes the ball sometimes and goes around people, like he is too good to be on West Ham.

Diaz nuts (42:40.728)
Oh, from IACS, okay.

Dan (42:51.95)
Yeah, it won't be for long I don't think. He's already getting eyed up by Liverpool I believe.

Andy (42:56.944)
Yeah, his XG is like super high for a crappy team.

Dan (43:01.774)
Alright, that is us for another weekend. If you want to get that one uploaded and ready to go.

Andy (43:06.736)
All right.
