It’s August 17th and it’s the 4th episode of our 5th season, welcome dear listener. I’m Paul and I am joined by Daz and Justin. We are here to talk about the Chelsea game, the state of play in the Liverpool world and the upcoming visit of Bournemouth. Thanks for joining us. 


Part One - The circus that is Chelsea:



  • The good - signs the front 5 could run over people - conversations about pianos


    • There were moments - Salah, Mac Alister, Szobozlai, VVD

    • The last pass - is that a familiarity question?

    • xG - 1.3….


  • The bad - the formation? 


    • Did they assume that that Chelsea away was like a bottom 10 game? 

    • 2nd half big gaps between Gapkpo, Diaz and Robbo


  • The ugly:


    • Chelsea fans, Chelsea’s spending, 

    • refereeing, Graeme ****** Le Saux


  • The cavalry - Elliott, Curtis, Darwin




Part Two - Some people are embarrassed way too easily:



  • Our failure to ‘back the manager’

  • We’ve got Endo!

  • Caicedo and Lavia - victims of a modern Ponzi scheme?

  • Pretty sure it’s not us leaking any of this shit


Part Three - Bournemouth and beyond:



  • Bournemouth - opposition research?

  • Team selection

  • Expectations and predictions




We will be back with a review of the Bournemouth game, our level of embarrassment and a look ahead to Newcastle away. Next week we hope to be joined by Andrew Beesley, friend of the Pod and someone who can help us dig into the numbers. Thanks to Daz and Justin.. And thank you for listening.
