Jerrell:

Orlando City one. They scored four or four goals.

Christian:

Oh yeah, that was a pretty solid game.

Will:

How.

Christian:

shout out Orlando City. We usually start off a little tough, so we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll see how this, this, this year goes,

Jerrell:

off not losing their first game of the season, but hey,

Will:

I like the consistency'cause we closed last week and I was like, why do we do it then? Why do we mention it and we win and now we're back. It's just like MLS is worth your time, we promise. So we bleed purple.

Jerrell:

Based podcast that talks about the Premier League has to acknowledge MLS here and there in

Christian:

acknowledge is a

Will:

I don't think we do, but Hey, but hey, hey, equal. Here we are. Yeah. So, let's get into it.

Jerrell:

Yeah, I'll do the FA cup. So we had fa cup, surprise, surprise, anybody who didn't know as well as the UCL, but let's let's get through the FA cup first. So we had Ashton Villa play card of city. They got a clean sheet. Ashton Villa winning two zero, Palace after a vicious red card at the eighth minute. Win the game. Three one Preston. Beats Brinley. Three zero Portmouth beats the cherries in penalties. It was a draw. One, one. They won in penalties. Five four Man City beats the Cinderella story Plymouth at the etti ad. Newcastle falls to Brighton two one. and United ends their run at the FA cup in penalties of a draw. One, one losing a penalty. Score three and the trick trees send the tractor boys home also in penalties. A one one draw. Nottingham Forest wins five four on penalties

Christian:

A.

Jerrell:

FA cup. lot of depends. Yeah. FA Cup will pick up again on March 29th for the quarterfinals. Preston's, the only non-prem team left in this tournament. I don't know how that looked this time last year when Coventry went all the way. But there's a stat.

Will:

Yeah, so March 29th we'll resume all those games being played. 11:00 AM Eastern time. So the matchups, they already did the draw. It's gonna be burn Myth. The cherries against Man City Brighton against the Freaky Forest Nottingham Forest Fullham. Against Crystal Palace and then Preston looks to keep their run going against Aston Villa.

Christian:

Ooh.

Jerrell:

Yes, sir. Who we got our money on? Do we care? Do we want to wait until we get closer?

Christian:

Every doubles fan just cried over the, the weekend. They have nothing left to fight for.

Jerrell:

No, they have the Europa Cup.

Will:

I think we were really maybe it was just me. I think we were all really depressed last week. Christian to be coming out, firing, looking at with a Manchester United angle so quick. But I like it. I like it. New week knew me, baby. Seven goals this week

Jerrell:

yeah. United Plays tomorrow in the, in the Europa League against a real associate AD at 1245. So they, they're still in it. So it's Tottenham. They also play tomorrow 1245 against AZ Amar.

Christian:

loss. Interesting.

Jerrell:

Unfamiliar with their game.

Will:

Yeah, I'm me.

Christian:

borough.

Jerrell:

Nah, I don't.

Will:

Yeah, I just wanted to take a moment. I, we were like reviewing it right before we started recording, but shout took a really, really, really bad high challenge from mill Well's goalkeeper early on in that game. But glad to see that. I think he's been released, so you just hope that he comes back healthy,'cause studs to the head. Crazy, crazy challenge, how it wasn't given a straight red initially and had to go to var. And some of the scenes you saw after, after, and it's maybe not representative of every mill Wolf fan, but enough that like kind of the scenes after and the discourse around it and how they reacted to it. You don't like to see it in any fandom? I think certain things are bigger than football and someone's. Head, head health specifically definitely comes before football instead of doubling down almost and exacerbating the situation, you saw some scenes in their following matchup. Yeah, shout at that. I hope everything's okay with him.

Jerrell:

Yeah, just such an insane It's I don't know. It's like it was crazy.

Christian:

To be completely missed, but are we, are we a hundred percent sure Michael Oliver is not blind?

Jerrell:

I don't know. I don't know.

Will:

I've never met the man. I can't confirm or deny so yeah.

Jerrell:

I think his favorite color are red, I don't know if he's blind.

Christian:

Not at our red.

Jerrell:

Not Our red hates our

Will:

Call him Playboy Cardi.'cause that's a whole lot of red. It's a Playboy Cardi album title in case you guys are uninitiated. So

Jerrell:

And the Newcastle I'm not trying to get an FA cup too much, but as it goes with Newcastle, for us in Arsenal, Brighton takes care of Newcastle in the FA Cup as

Will:

my fucking nemesis, fuck him.

Jerrell:

just no one's scared of Newcastle.

Will:

love, I love my angle between telling Christian he has to be objective, but then I also go out on my random list of just fuck Newcastle, fuck the mag pies. I don't believe anything you stand for. So

Jerrell:

Esoc is third on the golden in the golden mo

Will:

he's really good though. I like him.

Jerrell:

Yeah,

Christian:

Yeah.

Jerrell:

a distant third. Moala has 25 goals. Ha is second with 20 goals.

Will:

There's the chosen ones this season, I'm convinced. So

Christian:

Yeah. It was just hot on's Fucking start. He had 10 gold in his first three games or some shit like that.

Will:

he was like, I can't make this shit look too easy. I'm gonna take, I'm gonna take this season off, have a good Reem story next season. Outside of that Christian, how we doing? Tractor Boy side of town.

Christian:

We've mowed all we can mow. We tracked all that we can track, it's a,

Will:

We've plowed what we could plow when opportunities arose. So

Christian:

Yeah, I think it's

Jerrell:

none of us are familiar with track.

Christian:

we're running outta steam out

Will:

KRA was like, yeah, the stick of something. I was like, over city boys, for real.'cause it's like grain, right? That sticks out of the mouth or some shit. With 168 hours of is that right?

Christian:

isn't it? barley maybe.

Jerrell:

went to go type in tractor boys. Apparently there's a, there's a team in the Iran Pro League called Tractor SC, and I don't know

Will:

Oh no. I know. I'd have to get Christian. I.

Christian:

Now my next soccer shirt is gonna have to be that random Chilean soccer team, that has the Pittsburgh Steelers logo.

Will:

I am surprised. I don't know how international trademarking works, but like it's pretty much just a Steeler's logo on an nasty and OW jersey, which is crazy to me. Yeah, they're so beautiful. Yeah.

Jerrell:

is the same about it.

Will:

Yeah. Yeah. That's from one of the early ones. I don't even know how Christian ended up finding them, but yeah, it's pretty much. Blue and black striped jersey. And then just a

Christian:

shout out. Biggest

Will:

make that up.

Christian:

I'll post it on the,

Will:

Yeah.

Christian:

group chat real quick. It's a, it's a beautiful,

Will:

Make it the thumbnail for the episode. Fuck it.

Jerrell:

Oh yeah.

Will:

Also, we saw that FA cup title defense ends Manchester United. They fall to Fulham losing at home at old Rafford. So Fulham. Staying alive, making it to the quarterfinals, keeping kind of their season around full of Marco Silva doing a great job over there. When you look at where they are in the league and you look at who's above them outside of like maybe burn myth you really feel like he's getting the most out of them on a week to week basis. Just wanted to also, t tit the hat to full for what's been like a really solid season. I don't think it's a team we've talked about too much outside of acknowledging they've been playing like. It's not a matchup. I think most of us would like to see week to week, but still have something to play for. And you're getting into mid-March, so towards the end of March. So I think it's been a great season for Fuller and Marco Silva.

Jerrell:

For sure. Going back to that chili in Jersey, I zoomed in and halfway expected it to say Steelers.

Will:

He is hold, hold back to the.

Jerrell:

at it, I was just like, how?

Christian:

I think it says aos, which is literally Steelers in Spanish. Their, their sponsor is like a fucking steel company.

Jerrell:

That's amazing.

Christian:

Biggest fan. I might have to fly to Chile just for that game. But yeah, shout out to Ham,

Jerrell:

Yeah. Winning

Christian:

professional pot.

Jerrell:

quarter final.

Will:

I think they had a older jersey that looked more blatant like an interior rip up. But yeah, that's, that's just all Steelers, so I don't. I don't understand actually. So yeah. Shout Chile.

Jerrell:

And Tractor se,

Will:

Yeah, we're gonna have to find that.

Jerrell:

the nicknames are the red Wolves.

Will:

We're gonna, we're, we're gonna have to run that in fifa, have the computer play. We're gonna meet up and do full halves and we just sit down like it's a real game.'cause the shit's not real life.

Christian:

Oh, for Wapato, you, you think Chilean League is in fifa?

Will:

I love the way you say it. Watching, I can't say it.

Christian:

Their White Jersey is a little weird with the black emblem.

Jerrell:

Yeah,

Christian:

Oh, we, we just hit a tangent. We're we're, we're way

Will:

No say on it. Write this. Write this, bro. This is

Jerrell:

I.

Will:

how Achi. Patin are. You hu? No.

Christian:

to, to, to the steel, I don't know. It's a dope jersey. Shut out. Pittsburgh Steelers. Shut out. Achi Pato. I'm pretty sure they actually said that their, their name and logo is inspired by the actual Pittsburgh Steelers, which,

Jerrell:

Oh yeah. I could tell.

Christian:

yeah,

Will:

What gave it away?

Christian:

Yeah.

Will:

What gave it away? Do you think they have to pay like any type of like licensing or anything like that? Or is it just like good money? How are they doing Second.

Christian:

Steelers even fucking know.

Jerrell:

I feel like the Steelers logo's now in the public domain, like Winnie the Pooh or something.

Will:

Winnie the Pooh is public domain.

Christian:

funny.

Will:

Can we if anyone can do art for us, if they can draw a Winnie the Pooh in Aachi jersey, it would mean everything to us. E literally everything.

Jerrell:

Just, just, classic Winnie the Poo, just the shirt.

Will:

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just the shirt, preferably the bear, but, all right.

Christian:

That was a good, that

Jerrell:

Yeah,

Will:

And that was the Hupa, the corner of the episode. So

Jerrell:

Champions

Will:

second, three games in seven points.

Jerrell:

at the Champions League?

Christian:

champ.

Will:

the song.

Jerrell:

The song, dammit.

Will:

Christian had Free thought and we got real upset at it. Sing Boy Sing.

Jerrell:

the dance.

Will:

He is oh, what do they sing?

Christian:

to just start singing Al Madrid because, it is our tournament. But I, I knew what you really wanted. a man of the people.

Jerrell:

All right. You wanna give us the

Will:

I don't think he knew Jerome, just, just so we're level here. I don't think he knew. I think he was gonna say Olive Madrid if we didn't fucking say anything to him. So go ahead and give us the breakdown, Christian. Go ahead, give us the review. I.

Christian:

All right, let's break it down. First leg. We got Aston Villa beating verse Leo. He Arsenal, arsenal. Fucking schoolyard bullies, bro. Seven goals from six different players. They just, PSV, IEN. Hoen. Fans look shocked. Fans look disheartened. It was, it was beautiful From our, our side of the aisle. Moving on the Madrid Derby over here. We got Raw Madrid beating at Letti Madrid. Two one. All three goals, by the way. I don't know if anybody saw the recap for that, but all three goals for this game were fucking amazing.

Will:

Before I go,

Christian:

had a, yeah, Rodrigo had a great one off his left foot. Raheem just said, I am a dancer. Flamenco all over them motherfuckers.

Will:

you better keep that energy. Go ahead.

Christian:

And Avarez, his goal was also a fucking banger as

Will:

Oh, fuck you. I don't like it. I like the energy behind it. Your bias is showing. He is. Ah, Alvar. It was. It was okay. It was alright. It was a banger. It was cool

Christian:

banger,

Will:

that there was more tone there. That was better. I like it more now. Yeah. Great game though.

Jerrell:

I have to

Christian:

It,

Jerrell:

around it.

Christian:

yeah, a great great game for it. What we got next beat two zero against Fayer n Bayer, and Munich. Beat their little brothers Bayer Lever Q in three zero. Shout out to Harry Kane for a brace. Still searching for that trophy Barcelona beat Benca one zero. And Liverpool beat PSG one zero. Any any surprises from the team?

Jerrell:

None of the Barcelona been FICO and. Needed a little bit more acknowledgement'cause Barcelona took a red in the first half and managed to score in the second half

Will:

Oh, you best believe it was coming. Yeah, I didn't get to.

Jerrell:

Will jumps into it

Will:

Yeah, I might dive into it. I didn't get to watch it, but reading the notes I was like, get the fuck out. Because last year that's, that's how we crash out of the UCL, right? We took took a red in the decisive matchup against PSG. And then one of the things we talked about is I just felt you need to find a way to get a result, especially being so many goals up. And them coming first lake seeming similar travels like they did against Monaco, where they lost that game one oh. Where Eric Garcia picked up a red them being able to take a red. Pick their chances. I think Benfica took 27 shots and had Ted on goal. Being able to, hold a line and get a result that, that's, it's it's nice to see as someone who's follows Barcelona because you expect an implosion in previous, previous iterations of the team. So hopefully that's like something that shows that they're gonna do something special this year, or at least have a deeper run. Yeah, shout out. Shout out Bara, but probably that second leg is probably gonna be ridiculous, so can't wait for it.

Jerrell:

Yeah. Was like they kept typing it up, that like nine goals is the first time they met. I'm like, I'm ready for it.

Will:

Yeah, it was like five late. Yeah, I think it was recent that on the episode I was just like, if you have to watch one game. Yeah.

Jerrell:

and I tuned in. I did.

Will:

And on the flip side Liverpool are they fucked? Is the script that it'd be FIFA scripting if I played that game? Because I was telling drills like, what, a seven 30 split on possession. PSG took 27 shots. Liverpool took two. And how, what, how was, was the breakdown drill? There was a sub two. What's going on?

Jerrell:

Yeah, Mo, so Mo comes off the field one minute his substitute comes on Harvey Elliot, and he gets the pass, he gets kicked out to him and he just. Widens his hip, puts it on the far post and goal for Liverpool. Fucking super sub is ridiculous. I was just like, ah, okay. So if it's not moala, it's it's Moss's sub, so Liverpool still keeps doing Liverpool things.

Christian:

I hate it. him stop. Yeah. Apparently Allison had a pretty good game. He, I think he was named the player of the match. He had a string of says from. Oh, I'm sorry. And he,

Will:

Yeah.

Christian:

and even tipped one of his free kicks, so shout out to Becker. He had a pretty good game.

Jerrell:

Yeah, and it wasn't Ps G's lack of effort at all. They definitely were competitive the whole time. They did, you thought they scored early in the game, but it disallowed for enough sides, literally like. It was like his heel, it was off sides. So it was that

Will:

Spiritually on side.

Jerrell:

Yeah, them having the lead in, in the first half. But Liverpool, they, they managed to find a way at the end is, they really stole that game out of PSG. So, kudos to them for just finding ways to win.

Will:

Yeah, my first post on the blue sky was outside of the episode is gonna be what the XG ends up being for that game. I'm gonna look into that and just be like, xg for this game. Liverpool point 0.08 PSG, probably like three or four. Club Broga also has faced a little bit of an implosion late. And they're leg one tie. They're the first game of the week on goal late, followed by a penalty given up. So what, what looked like a positive result of one, one ends up going villas weight three one late. So just I think one of the Cinderella teams, unlikely teams between them and low. So it was tough to watch those last 10 minutes.'cause you could tell from the first goal, own goal they gave up there, it looked like the life left the team and then the penalty came after.

Jerrell:

Yeah, that was just tragic. I didn't watch this one, but when I was writing up the notes for it, I was just like, that's a tough way to, that's a tough way to lose when you, you got it right. You're just trying to hold on you. You'll take the draw. But yeah, own goal. BA penalty is just fuck,

Will:

Very specific shout, but the player who gave up the own goal, I don't have his name right now, the way he hit the ground and just laid there and looked up into the sky very much, gave me it sounded like mac and cheese energy. Christian, if you remember the meme from way back when. But

Christian:

cheese energy.

Will:

send it to you after, but it was. It's, it's an explicit meme, so I'll try to find it, but it's like a guy.

Christian:

for our

Will:

Okay. So it's pretty much just like a cartoon drawing of of humanoid figure laying on in a puddle, and they're looking up to the guy questioning things and it's usually. Through the lens of some really good sex. It's just like, why'd I say I love you? Why did I do that? I didn't pull, it sounded like mac and cheese. Not as funny now that I explained it. But I'll send it to you after, nonetheless, so you guys can at least know I'm talking about if a f our listeners know what we're talking about. Shout out to you. Anyway, off that tangent.

Christian:

Bro.

Will:

A third, it'll be our third post. I just have to find it from somewhere. Get showing my age a little bit with that one, honestly. So,

Jerrell:

and or falling to enter. Just one step that I picked up on after that game was enter has eight clean sheets and nine UCL matches, which is incredible.

Will:

N's looking good.

Jerrell:

Yeah, thanks.

Will:

gonna take a two minute break, go off.

Jerrell:

Yeah, just inner, just playing really good football right now. And comfortably led, fan Nord. It just tournament favorites. Maybe Christian might say no, but playing very strong football.

Christian:

Sorry, I was reprimanding my puppy. What was, what, what was that last bit? I heard my name.

Jerrell:

about it. Say inter looking like favorites this tournament.

Christian:

Oh, yeah. Absolutely. Fucking not

Jerrell:

Offor. Yeah. No

Christian:

unbiased,

Jerrell:

strong, strong play from them. And Byron getting three, three, oh. Winning the game three zero is huge because, they struggled against Celtic. They struggled a little bit in group group play. Big statement win for them. Especially at home. So hopefully, it's looking like they'll hold onto that in the second leg. Leins gonna have a big hill to climb on the away game.

Christian:

Shout out to Baron.'cause this game today they actually ended a six game un six games against Lever Cuson without victory.

Jerrell:

okay.

Christian:

shout out to them. Lever cus last year had a really pretty good run to, to claim that title. So yeah, I agree. I don't think Lever Cuson has what it takes to come back from a three oh deficit. Deficit, but should still be a good game. They have a lot to, to play for.

Jerrell:

Yeah. Only will pick Byron on that one. We went with Leonard Cuson. But you do the only draw was Dot and Lil,

Christian:

That Doman strike was pretty solid.

Jerrell:

I have to go back and watch it. So this one be a little back and forth still up in the air. Honestly, even the PSG Liverpool game is still pretty

Will:

I am back.

Jerrell:

G's gonna have to go one extra goal to Liverpool and they gotta play a anfield, so it is looking a little bleak. that's still a close one. Barcelona Manca is a close one because, hey, they'd already scored nine goals, like they could have that same game happen again. Even the Real Madrid and Athletico Madrid pretty close as well.

Will:

Yeah, so I'll be at the Metropolitan. I can't speak right now, the And let goes Home. Home. Yeah. Thank you.

Jerrell:

town, it should still be interesting matches. I think we could definitely say, Hey, Byron's, moving on. Inner is most likely moving on. Arsenal is

Will:

If Arsenal sells, right? Yeah. No. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah. PS PSV, tough, tough game. We didn't touch on it too much outside of the thing.'cause I didn't even think PSV played well. But once the wheels fell off it, it's just it felt like nothing was gonna go right for them. A little bit of respite. I enjoyed art. Ted's comments also after the game where he was just kind of like, I think one of the pundits asked was like, oh, were, were you expecting something like this? He was like, oh, of course. But he was just kind of like, no, you dream about nights like this, but at the end of the day, we know we have work to do. We keep our head down and we're gonna stay humble. Little shot, little, little shout, little tongue in cheek, but,

Christian:

I Times like this.

Will:

also just excited to see Arsenal, have a chance to maybe rotate some guys out in fixtures that maybe they wouldn't have had a chance to previously. I don't know exactly who, but the pressure's definitely off a little bit and maybe we don't have to run, our available guys into the ground necessarily. Maybe get to Libo Gravity a break as well yeah.

Jerrell:

when I checked into that game, it was already 5, 1 50 first minute,

Christian:

so quick,

Jerrell:

was,

Christian:

so quick.

Jerrell:

fast. Who do they run at nine? Was it Marino

Will:

Marine Nine. Yes sir. They ran him early. He, one of the goals he scored, it was velocitys a bad game. Like just, just a tough game and just bad defending at some point. But when I tell you like the defender just put his foot down, place it there. So Marino can just like calmly pass it into the far side netting on the left side of the goalkeeper. Like it was just one of those days where it's just like you can't believe the balls that were falling to people's feet. So I. There's a meme too where one of Ode guard's goal where Declan Rice, ode Guard had a whole goal and Dec Declan Rice is like this side here, here. Definitely a much needed respite and they look through to see whoever's coming through the Madrid Derby tie. And that honestly, I can't wait to go back into that game'cause that game, the parts I was able to catch great fucking game. As Christian alluded to, all the goals were amazing. I think. The first goal is through a Val Verde, like the threw ball that landed perfectly, Rodrigo, the engine of the team he sometimes overlooked with all the star power there. And Madrid able, also able to get that result without Bellingham also in the tie. A lot of fun stuff and a lot nice chess being played. So I can't wait for the second leg on that, honestly.

Christian:

Yeah. Who would've thought Verde would turn into a fucking top three left back in the world right now? That shit, that game itself. Not, not just like all his game, but specifically this game. He played amazing at, left back and he, he just has an endless motor, so shut out to.

Will:

Danny, he play, uh,

Christian:

You call me

Will:

didn't he play Danny? He play right back.

Christian:

right back. Yeah. My bad. Right

Will:

Okay. I was trying to point and then you were like, he was like, I'll fucking kill you. Will I know where you live?

Christian:

of a in my

Will:

He said, I will dox you so quickly on the pod.

Christian:

this man's from Hunters.

Will:

I know that usually our, our the silences are like shortened a little bit through your masterful editing, but if you can leave that as is drill, that'd be perfect because that long silence into the. The fuck. Yeah. Yeah, Anelli is cooking something over there.'cause if he can get all of his center mids to be able to play fullback at all times and just interchange, there's something there.

Christian:

Yeah.

Will:

but yeah, it's funny'cause I think was it Verde can probably play just up and down that whole flank honestly, no matter where you want to put him. And we already know he loves to put Kaga left back and then center back Kaga playing even up more. In the midfield. It was fun to see. It was like, oh yeah, this is where he applied his straight. So yeah. Fun stuff.

Jerrell:

All right. When does champions, when's the second lake?

Will:

Tuesday, Tuesday, Wednesday. So next week we're gonna be like we told you

Jerrell:

go, go right back in

Will:

so all the home legs, it's gonna be at Aston Villa, at Little Art at the Emirates. Is gonna have their enters, gonna have their home leg. Barcelona's gonna have their home leg in the Monique, and then Liverpool. I'm also gonna get their home leg. Flipped on the dock, but should be fun. A lot of close ties. I think the only one I'm gonna call completely dead is the Arsenal one. Byron, I don't think they'll sell, but I, weird shit in the Champions League. But outside of that, everything else is alive in my eyes.

Jerrell:

Alright, cool. Good deal. And finally we have Premier League games to talk about, but only to preview

Christian:

Love it.

Jerrell:

So Match day 28 is coming up and I'll go ahead and run through that list of Nottingham Forest Host Man, city Brighton verse Fullham. Crystal Palace v Ipswich, Liverpool verse Southampton Brentford verse Villa. Wolves in Everton, Chelsea Lester City, spurs Burn Manchester United in Arsenal

Christian:

The Spurs burn.

Jerrell:

Newcastle.

Will:

So South h. Hampton has a chance to do the funniest thing, right?

Jerrell:

Oh, of course. But will they

Will:

I'm gonna pray and I'm gonna hope you don't think they will let Anfield, but

Jerrell:

not happening.

Will:

there's been times where we assume nothing would happen, and then I come back next week and you're just like, why did you do this? But yeah, it'd be funny.

Jerrell:

be wrong again.

Will:

I am, I'm gonna call it a clean 2.0 Liverpool result. Nothing fun really going on, but probably like a most solid brace.'cause why the fuck not? But yeah, Southampton has a ch chance to do the face thing,

Christian:

zero.

Will:

huh?

Christian:

I thought you meant South Hampton will win two zero

Will:

I wouldn't bet on it, but it'd be nice, right? If, if they could do that. Is the league back on, maybe. No, no.

Christian:

I don't think so.

Will:

Oof, oof.

Christian:

well

Will:

Tough.

Christian:

burnt. It's

Will:

Not burnt. There's a magic, magic number, magic number.

Jerrell:

of this podcast is already conceding Liverpool.

Will:

We need them to lose three games. I'm not asking for much guys. Outside of that Nottingham Forest riding high this season, a little bit of a wobble. Lately, they're having magic against man, city coming up, man, city looking like they're finding form, game to game. We don't know if we can really trust anything from them. So looking forward to that. That's a kickoff our week. Yeah.

Jerrell:

Med City manages to win this one. They go up to third place. It's

Will:

Ain't that some shit.

Jerrell:

Yeah. battle third and fourth. Man City looking to just climb the table a little bit. I, I don't think they have a shot at winning the the league, about seating and pride at this point, so we'll see what happens. I think Hasn't force been Stru Forest has been struggling the past couple games too, to be honest. Yeah, man, city is awesome.

Christian:

They had a tough stretch. I wouldn't say they'd necessarily been struggling. I.

Jerrell:

But there's bird on the table. It's still a tough stretch, right? You're still playing Man City. And,

Christian:

Yeah,

Jerrell:

who did Man City drop games to then? Because they played Liverpool. They played they played tot ham. Who else? Who the fuck Arsenal, man? City played

Christian:

arsenal, Newcastle and Fullham.

Jerrell:

It, it will still be a, it'll be an interesting game

Will:

I am trying to see Nottingham for his like rot of form going in.

Jerrell:

where,

Will:

Nope, that's the last five against man city. What? Christian, you're, you're good at this. What's noting Ham for his last five look like?

Christian:

Last five. Let's see. They have, ooh.

Will:

Pens against hip switch.

Christian:

be Chelsea Westham Lester Crystal Palace.

Will:

Oh, I meant their, their run of games into this. But yeah, still.

Christian:

Arsenal, Newcastle, Fulham, and

Will:

Honestly, since they dog walked right in that one week, they, the results haven't been like, great. I, it's a wobble. It's a wobble for sure. I, I'd say if Arsenal went on that stretch, I'd say they were struggling. They're still in third. They're still holding up. They're still holding up. It's okay.

Jerrell:

point. Yeah, one point lead on third,

Will:

And then who's.

Jerrell:

Boardman.

Will:

Spurs have been looking a lot better lately. I've been still playing in Europe League, as you all mentioned earlier. Bird Myth, a little bit of a wobble too. That should be fun. That should be fun just with Spurs game players by seeing if they, what they can do. Going into the week, I'm trying to see who's Chelsea playing again? Oh, Lyster. Oh, that's big for Chelsea.'cause if then if they can go to Tie 9:00 AM Man City, they can move to third actually.

Jerrell:

Yep. Yeah, I can move up as

Will:

First place, not popping rest of the league. It's still alive. It means it means something to me. Damnit. So

Christian:

Did we at least secure second place because that comes with more money. At least we did not secure second

Will:

define secure. Yeah.

Jerrell:

point, six point lead on second it's

Christian:

Eight points speed separates us in fifth place. 10 points separates us in sixth place.

Jerrell:

yeah, it's not exactly

Will:

What? What are you doing? What are you doing? This is supposed to be a fun podcast and now I'm anxious. What are you,

Jerrell:

for something to live for.

Will:

so they, I live for

Christian:

10 points in.

Jerrell:

need the rush.

Christian:

10 points and 10 games. Some of those include our, your favorite Newcastle, the Mac Pie, since

Will:

We play them again. Oh, we do play them again. I hate them.

Christian:

May 18th.

Will:

I hate them so much. A week after Liver before. I know which game I'd prefer to win at this point. That's crazy. I fucking can hate them, so I just wanna score a goal against them. Is, is that asking for too much?

Jerrell:

Actually, it might be, it

Will:

Fuck. I muted myself. He said that shit unmuted. Just so you could hear me say fuck.

Christian:

Yeah, we got Arsenal coming up next and after ars, I'm sorry, we have Arsenal, we have Manu coming up next. And then after Manu we have Chelsea, followed by Fullham, followed by Everton, followed by the busy bees.

Will:

I like it. Christian got a little philosophical on the pod. He said The only thing that can beat us is ourselves. And I agree, Christian. I I agree. And that's the content I come here for.

Christian:

It's gonna be, it's gonna, we can make top four, we can make it to the Champions League,

Will:

We're finishing in second. We're finishing in second minimum,

Jerrell:

said

Christian:

like gentlemen

Jerrell:

question was, is second place logged? I don't think second place is locked. Will they make Champions League next year? I don't see Arsenal finishing outside the top four, to be honest. Yeah.

Christian:

heard to

Will:

just dies on pod. His last words, fuck. Oh man. No,

Jerrell:

it on my.

Will:

They're still, they're still controlling games really. It's just, they're, one of their strengths was like that they were able to do it on both ends, but least amount of goals giving up on the season. One less game played than Liverpool, but I don't see them giving up. Three goals this weekend, four goals this weekend, knock on wood. But yeah, it's just gonna be more if they can fi have the finishing touch and just avoid those reds. Honestly, that's,

Jerrell:

Wait

Will:

if I could pick two, three reds to take away this season. The season probably goes a little bit different. But Manchester United this weekend, a team that's been struggling, I think our run of form against him the last couple games has been pretty solid. So no games a given, obviously, but we're gonna keep this momentum ready,

Jerrell:

let's just see what happens. Let's just jump on the vibes and coast to the end of the

Christian:

I believe,

Will:

That's just a wave.

Jerrell:

All right, with that, Christian, do you wanna close this out on this lovely podcast?

Will:

The closer.

Jerrell:

We brought in the closer

Christian:

This is me,

Will:

The least. The least. The least. The least. Inti. Intimidating, closer. Either I'm over here just thinking

Christian:

Need they usually come out to like background music I

Will:

they use, no, they do, but usually they come out to welcome Sandman, like I'm putting this team to sleep or something like this, or like something like, with a little bit more gravitas. Christians walk out music. Ta ta as you're dancing with your fingers pointed to the sky. Just like

Christian:

infringement, bro. It's too early to be

Will:

we ain't never been worried about that. We, we've never worried about that, bro.

Jerrell:

listen to us first.

Will:

I think we can get like 10 seconds of clips or something. I'm gonna look up the limit.'cause then I'm gonna have drill working.

Jerrell:

is no limit. So any, just any amount of time is infringement.

Will:

No, we won't get flagged as long as we don't go too crazy.

Jerrell:

Yeah. That

Christian:

By too crazy. Do you mean we won't

Jerrell:

Christian:

Too many

Will:

Ah, the intern was taking care of it. I told the intern to take care of it.

Jerrell:

Christian:

Oh, I'm a hundred percent

Will:

No, I wanna, I, I'm looking forward to watching that breakdown. Actually, I hope y'all lose. I hope y'all don't make it. Actually, you're you once again. I said last week you're count, you're counting your chickens before they hatch. Christian. Relax, I've I

Christian:

all have bird flu anyway, so there's nothing to count. I dunno if that analogy.

Jerrell:

right now.

Will:

where the money,

Jerrell:

show about.

Will:

if you buy a chicken, you don't have to buy eggs. Dumb ass like.

Christian:

Don't ask me how I know. But I think Jarrell, you can actually own up to four chickens.

Jerrell:

In the state of Florida or anywhere.

Christian:

think that's Orlando actually.

Will:

gonna stop me from owning five chickens?

Jerrell:

Because I have, I have friends who have chickens. They have eight,

Christian:

just have to have a

Will:

I'm gonna report them. Oh, they haven't? Okay.

Christian:

in Orlando you have to have minimum maximum of four, and they

Jerrell:

I think we should do

Christian:

I think so that's what my contract says.

Will:

Nice contract.

Jerrell:

I'm, I'm contractually obligated to be here.

Will:

The Puerto Rican Corinthians verse that they get on their chest as a tattoo. It's Christian's contract where it just says yeah, you gotta talk to us every once in a while. Pretty much so

Jerrell:

All right.

Will:

not the

Jerrell:
