But he said he will give you a try.

Macca 1000% deserves to be in the conversation. Started the season playing as a 6 which isn’t his preferred position and if you look at the advance metrics he was ranked right near the top. Then as Endo grew into the team and Macca was moved to his preferred number 8 he has been insanely good. Some of the goals and assists he has this season are insane…. And that’s only a small fraction of what he does well. Controls the midfield very well, reads the game at a very high level. Works very hard. Never seems to be down or negative. What a player and for his price tag? One of the best bargains in history.

The Forest fan on the overlap made a good point that they only broke the rules because they sold Johnson a few weeks later than a deadline because they knew they would get more money from Spurs than Brentford. Surely holding out a few extra weeks for more money is better financially for their club. FFP is a load of bollocks.

They didn't break the rules by selling players at certain times though did they. They broke them by taking loans of players from bigger clubs to get promoted and then lost most of them at the end of the season, they put themselves in the position that they couldn't get out of in time. The rules have to have a cut off date. U'd go mad if it was another "bigger" club and they got out of it by cherry picking buyers AFTER the time limit. U'd say it was the big club conspiracy.

Id say Arsenal winning by 5+ goals multiple times this season is pretty entertaining for the fans

The style of play thing as a West Ham fan is so interesting because two seasons ago, we had barely any possession but some of it was the best football I’ve seen since 15/16 at the club. We scored tons of goals and created so many chances, possession does result in wins but it’s not everything.

As a Liverpool fan, I absolutely love watching Foden. The lad has the grace of a Gazelle and when playing with a freedom he is a beautiful watch. But, my god, I wish there was an Asian porno style filter that blurs out his silly little haircut. Keep it up lads.

Fucking hell I know. It's so bad it keeps me up at night. Also, what sort of a grown up with kids and everything, is sat at the barbers going "yeah, shave some of them lines in my eyebrows." Foden irritates the piss out of me in a way that few things do.

I think when looking at scoring and penalty statistics in particular, we need to have figures that factor in the amount of incidents when the penalty that the player scores comes from a foul on that same player in a promising goalscoring position. Or when a handball stops a certain goal from the player that then takes the penalty.

Mac Allister is signing of the season, maybe even player of the season so far, he is absolutely outrageous.

As a Liverpool fan I’d go VVD or MacAllister, but it’s very hard not to acknowledge just how good Foden has been

With how influential he is and how many managers learn from him, more games are becoming clever chess matches - but most fans would prefer to watch reckless boxing matches

Hahahahah brilliant

Can't stand in game win percentages. Don't care about predicted league positions. Let emotions decide who is likely to win. Don't spoil a comeback with a stat that says we are already 30% likely to draw and 20% likely to win. Just feels pointless to spoil the anticipation and fun. The VAR of the stats world. Sucks emotion out of a moment.

The two players that should win it is: Rodri or VVD. Others have been good but these two are the best in their positions and can be argued that they are the PL best of all time. If Salah and Allison didn't get injured and/or missed a lot of games, they could be in question for it.

Not having Mac Allister is criminal

Not one to come to United’s aid but xG and xGA and therefor npxGD doesn’t take into account two extremely important factors, finishing ability and goalkeeper ability. This could also be luck, we’d have to look at every chance to decide that. A team having 0.2 xG in a game and being clinical so taking that one chance vs a team generating 2 xG but missing great chances doesn’t necessitate luck. Being clinical is important. Sure you want to create more and be more dominant but having clinical finishers is great too. At the other end, you can concede high xGA and your keeper can keep making great saves. This could also be luck as opposition strikers miss sitters. Sure you want to defend better as a team but it’s good that your keeper is saving them. Can’t just disregard those two immensely important factors to put it down to luck

The thing about chelsea is, if their finishing was better they'd be compared to spurs right now. They're actually pretty fun to watch they just can't put the ball past the keeper.

I think Frank Lampard has the record for longest undefeated run. He definitely has the longest undefeated home run because he played in all of Chelseas 86 undefeated home games

The answer is Ipswich, succeeding expectation, playing lovely football and getting results

Lets be honest. Whoever wins the league its going to be a player from that team

For years I listened to people say "it's about winning, it's about results, not entertainment, specialist in failure". For years Arsenal have been criticised for being soft, for not being able to play different ways, for failing to be pragmatic. We have the most goals in the league. But one game with this approach and everyone is now flipping to the opposite sentiment. Lol

I'm with Flav here, every gameweek I look for the QPR score, I'm all swept up in the Marty Party

Football chat has officially taken over the podcast

Left footed players converted 85% of penalties since 2019/20 compared to 79% for right footed players.

Is expected points not better than Xg difference? If you get 5xg or 2xg in one game and win you can still only get 3 points

I think from a purely 'love of the game' perspective I get why fans are annoyed at Levy over the years but from a pure look at growth and financial power he's done fantastic, I think they're in a really good position now to really become a big club with the right investors.

As a Stevenage fan, I can whole heartedly say I don't care how we play as long as we are competitive.

FOR THE GREATER GOOD!

When you're talking about entertaining football, that shouldn't just be about possession and shots. I'm an Arsenal fan and I derive a lot of enjoyment from seeing Gabriel and Saliba. Passion and physicality and last minute tackles and all that can absolutely be enjoyable. Flav's perspective sounds like he only enjoys watching half of his team.

Harry Kane looks around the foggy dream plane. Out of the mist appears the football gods. Pele, Cruyff, Beckenbauer and an old Chinese dude who Harry doesn't recognise.

Stats say Chelsea should be around 4th, First half stats say they should be around 4th, Second half stats suggest 15th so why is there such a disconnect brtween two halves

After watching Garnacho celebrate last night, I’ve had enough of players celebrating for the camera. What’s happening to celebrations... just go mental!

No true Leicester fan really is going after Vardy, its just more the manager uses him which can be frustrating, and he does miss chances. We still absolutely love him though

Not all of us are on the poch out train, but the performances, not just the results, have been woeful. Cole Palmer’s back is gonna break from carrying this team

Far too much reliance on stats in the POTS chat. It's got to be their impact on their team with their team's impact that season. Palmer? Amazing player, Chelsea 12th. Barkley possibly keeping Luton up? Far more deserving.
