But this year, while I was making my way through Walmart, I realized I don't have to spend a lot to get the gifts they'll love. An OPI mini-mani set! I'm gonna do so much nail art! Oh yeah! A Lego set! My own a wall of water bottle! Ooh, and that's just half of them. Shop great gifts there's sure to love for $25 and under at Walmart.

If less is loose again, Kev, we'll go do a bit of preview, aren't we, mate? Yeah, I mean, look, this is kind of like the game that's after the Lord Mayor's show, isn't it? Yeah. You've had your rare Madrid, you've had your man's city, now we're on the travels and off to Newcastle, a guy who can't get a result against us for loving our money, even when we're down to 10, many can't get a result against us. And they hate us? Yeah, they hate us for it, but yeah, it's going to be, it's massive. It's massive tomorrow night for sure. So, yeah, it's always a good atmosphere at St James's Park anyway. And our recent record with Newcastle is good, I think we've won our last six, we're undefeated in six now against Newcastle, the last six, it drove 1-1-5, so I think 2015 is the last time we tasted defeat to them, I think, which was at St James's Park. So, yeah, we've had some mad games at St James's Park, we had the Darwin Nunez in Gappo goals and then Nick Pope gets himself sent off. Yeah, it's the title, and we saw Kenny as with his leather gloves, his brown leather gloves, he had horrendous. Yeah, they're all with eventful games, let's put it that way, and I expect tomorrow night it will be absolutely no different because these games, you know, anytime you go on playing a side whose ambition is to get into the top six and to look to push on from there, you know it's going to be a tough test, and almost every game in the Premier League away from home is a tough test. The volume of games are just kind of come thick and fast from here on, see it in one of the press conferences, we've got nine games, six away games in the, yeah, six away games in the next nine, so it's going to be tough, so we'll see how we get on, but I think every player in the squad who's fit and available over December is going to be used at some point, so it's all about maintaining the standards that we've set, keeping the points total, taking over and minding the gap, you know, it's as simple as that. Speaking of man in the gap, Leicester City had just made it three-nil against the West Arm, and I was like, I've only seen a second after this game, Leicester City have barely had a kick, all game of score three goals, it's mental, but that now drops Everton to just above them, just for the relegation zone, that's two clubs at the League Frog, the Palace got a massive win, only their second win of the season, you know, so there aren't many wins, I think from Palace below, it's two wins or one win in all season, so both at the table, it's going to be an interesting couple of days coming up. I think you could look at it, this could be the couple of days where the League starts to fragment a bit, like, I mean, we've got a big game tomorrow in Newcastle, you've got Arsenal Manchester United, you've got a couple of other big games going on in the Premier League as well, all for the next two fixtures, two sets of fixtures, where you could see the table really start to separate, because as it stands at the minute, this, you know, from maybe 10th up to 2nd or 3rd, the point gap isn't massive on paper, but you could start to see it fragment, I think, over the next few weeks. I think when you look at the League table, from, you've got both of the 13th, you've got five wins at 18 points, then it's west down on four wins, Leicester and three, I think West Ham will hope that it won tonight, it will just cut away, just be less to below is the dog fight, everybody else is, kind of, fighting the table, fighting for, you know, the League, go on, so on and so forth. That lost my drag, West Ham, it's more of a relegation worry, as an adult it will go down, but as in, like, they're in that mix now of, like, not what they want to be. Well, we're main guy by the chat last night about this, and it was along the lines with Labor Teghi, do West Ham push the button on him before the transfer window, and is it a case, do you remember when Palace signed your man, the Boer? The Boer, and it just didn't work. Well, I think that's why the draw, I think the last two results were Palace are massive for their manager, because Palace is owners, as they actually think, as they actually trigger finger, he's not afraid to give up a bad talk, if not, if he goes on giant, back to Roy Johnson. I think West Ham could pull the trigger, I think, David boys, go back. I think the weekend for West Ham is huge, you know, it's a case of look, David, back-to-back European runs, won a trophy in Europe, which is huge for West Ham, but if it looks like they're scraping around the back, the bottom end of the table again, I think they're definitely pressed the button, they won't like it, I mean, that stadium is huge, that stadium needs to be full. I mean, West Ham's don't play into Monday at home to Wolves, I mean, this is the big, speaking of Wolves, the next two games are massive Wolves, a way to Everton, a way to West Ham, a massive way to his collision, if Wolves win tomorrow night, they leapfrog everything. So we are in the world of six pointers now, and just, you know, oh yeah, for sure, for sure, listen, we need to explain, I need to explain this a little bit, I went playing around on this thing that we use to put the podcast out, and I found a little thing where you can change your background, and instead of me, you guys looking into my kitchen and me trying to hide the dishes by the sink, I thought, right, I'm going to upload a couple of images, we're going to see how it works, see what you guys think of it, if you don't mind them, then we'll keep them, if you do mind them and you're like that, get rid of that as fake shit, just, we'll get rid of them and we'll just go back to, I'll go back to hiding the messes in the kitchen or the shoulder, I don't know what you're talking about, this is my back room, I just got this painted yesterday, I do, I do, I do, if you guys don't mind it, leave a like on the video, leave a comment after the show, if you want us to keep them, let us know, if you don't want us to keep them, let us know, and that's all this is, we're just going to, we'll keep changing stuff around until we find stuff we like, or we'll just leave it alone, you know, it's either wrong. But anyway, listen, the reason why we're here is... Oh yeah, we're playing Newcastle, aren't we? Newcastle, Newcastle United away tomorrow night, and I watched the extended highlights as far as I was prepared to go, of the game against Christopher Palace at the weekend, on my life, Christopher Palace left two points behind them, I don't care that Newcastle scored first, Newcastle were so lucky to come out of that game with anything, they were really offered. How often did you see a game where it goes? One one, Newcastle goals, shots on target zero. Yeah, it was one of those weird kind of games where I think Palace played next to their potential, yeah, Newcastle were way below, way below par. And I don't know, I don't think they've got that many performances like that in them this season Newcastle, but they were poor at the weekend, and you know about it? They lost over to Westam recently and Westam are dreadful. They are, but you go back a bit further, they've beaten Chelsea in the club, beaten Arsenal, got a draw with City when City were actually on a bit of a run. The big game, the way they set up the big game suit, though, actually. Well, this is the thing, and you've got to look, I watched Eddie House press conference, you not really owe me a pint, if ever I meet you, I sat and watched Eddie House press conference. No major. I did it for them. I didn't do it for you. Listen, actually still a favourite out of those fours. Well, yeah, that ship sailed, doesn't it? Yeah, I think Matt's ahead of you, as well. Oh, Matt, after his adventures at the weekend with his, he needs to stop showing off a moonlighting with one of Gav's shows. He needs to do it on our show. I'm saying this, no, that was nothing to do with Matt. That was both of you who did all of that. That was Matt's better off who did all of that. Oh, no, Matt took all the credit for it, but honestly, he hasn't seen the show so honestly watch it. It's so funny. It's the best. Gav played with the sound of it. It's the funniest thing that we've done. Yeah, but anyway, let's get on to this. Newcastle have injury issues. Alexander reset went off with a hip issue. And the way Eddie how he was describing this. You saw Beanie's OK, doesn't he? No, the way Eddie how he was describing it was it's one of those issues that he's going to have it's going to be day by day, take time to assess it. But he came off early in that game. 30 minutes. Yeah, it just looked like one of those things where do you ever have it where you've just walked into something and you didn't expect to do it and you get a pain in your head. You're like, Oh, maybe it's just me because I'm getting all that. It's probably when you're back when you crack, you know, when you're when you catch your knee kept wrong and your leg goes a bit like jelly. It's a bit like that. So it looks so awesome. It must be a sore one because it's only after the game. It didn't even didn't even seem to get back up. So the other the other injury issue that they have at the minute is at the back with Dan Byrne, Dan Byrne. He's he's he might be backed in the day, but he'd be touching go. Yeah, he's been managing an ankle issue for a while. And he hasn't been managing it well in game. And he's been look, his mobility at the best of time, Jane, great. But it's he he is paid is playing through a pain barrier for the badge at the minute, because of don't think they have any swim, bot men are still out in your craft. So Jamal, the cells are still out. Yeah, you know, because there was a lot to do looking, they lost bot men under the cells pretty much back to back, didn't they with ACLs last season? Yeah, I think it was pretty much back to back. It was like just one of those like, you know, one of those moments where it never rains, it pours, you know, in the same position, you know, we've lived. Yeah. Yeah. But at the same time, they got the engine. I like the full backs, especially, I think, for what they want to do for the counter sacks, I think they're full backs, or it could cause your problems, but they've got pasteburn on the wings that do. But you know, I'm looking at the predicted lineups and they're two different predicted lineups, really. If you look on the BBC, they're predicted lineup has Isaac in it. Hours. Sorry. The other one that I tend to really go by dozens. And I don't think it will. I don't think Isaac plays tomorrow. I think he might be on the bench as a break glass emergency. Just thinking, yeah, because Callum was back in the bench, wasn't he for them? But again, he only came on. He got late in the Palace game, got over didn't bring him on when he's got injured. Yeah, because he's just back, isn't he? It's like any game, especially away from home, the battles in the middle of the park. And if you've got, it looks like they'll more than likely have a midfield of Sean Longstaff, who took a marriage will look more tonally, tonally, tonally is, he's in and out, he's coming off the bench. So if you're looking at midfield three of Longstaff, Camarish, and Willough, Murphy probably plays Gordon will more than likely play through the middle and Joe Linton will is listed as a left as a winger, but he won't. He'll supplement the midfield. Yeah. So. And kicks you and just kicks shit out of everybody who's near him because he just gets away. He's one of those in the. But you're right about the pullbacks, whole and liberal mental, you know, they'll look to get forward with every opportunity. Basically, it was a. To give, give trip your his time and say, like, right, it's now time to put yours as a. Yeah, because they needed, they need some sort of pace in it. Yeah. Are you, are you looking forward to it? Are you a bit nervous about it? Bear in the mind. The fact that, you know, we've had a massive week, you know, genuinely, if you look back at last week, you know, just coming back, you're the Southampton fixture. And you're like, Oh, yeah, it's free to, you know, we cut out and we played all right. I think we played well, we gave away silly goals, bouncing into the Madrid game, and then the Man City game. You know, I don't think anyone expected to come out of those with two clean sheets and two wins. I probably shouldn't have had more. Yeah. Any both in both games. So how are you feeling going into this one? Slightly anxious, because you kind of go, it's, you know, in that routine of, you've got to keep them and some going now. And that's. Difficult, but for what's quite a few players now who know about it. And obviously, you know, likes of Van Dyke and Sub-As-Liner all know what happened there last year. So, you know, you can't let the crowd get on top of you. You can't give them an easy out. Because let's be honest, that there is a there is a sliding doors moment last year where they probably should have scored at least two or three before we got an equalizer. You know, they hit the post. There was a wonder save by Alison. You know, so. Alison does really well at that. Yeah, yeah. So Newcastle is a difficult game. In my place, we're at hands this little run now because the likes of City, Liverpool, Arsenal, United, they use the three games a week because I'm playing in Europe. Newcastle haven't done this for a while. I haven't done this this year. And you're everton on the list. And you're too tend to find this is where it stretches squats. You have to do three games of the week. Sometimes he's named the stat that I've actually done research on. So really an order. Except that's part of my start line up. Darwin has to start. He's just got to think about Newcastle. It just seems to be a ground that he's got a bit of a bit of a liking for. You know, like Robbie father loved Arsenal. Darwin, you know, seems to like games against. Get against Newcastle and like foul, loved Arsenal. So I would give this role. I also think Shaw and Dan Burns lack of mobility. I don't think they want Darwin's physicality in pace. And I think you saw what he did to Diaz for City. I think he could probably do a similar job for an hour there. I think that's kind of what you need one for me. So we'll go through the line. It's because you may have discussed this over the last couple of days and we disagree on our lineups. No, you disagree. I know, I know, I know, I know, because we're the best, we're the best and makes all the time. But yeah, no. But again, whether the line is the one I pick or the one you pick would both be like, I'm grand would either, to be honest, you can just make it, you can make an argument for different ones. So based on the manager's presser, which by the way, if you haven't seen it, is actually a more interesting press conference, generally, you know, he's quite straight down the line slot, doesn't say too much. But he had a bit of a pearl of a line that didn't make any to the Mo Salah question. So we'll come back later. We'll come back to it. But he mentioned, in terms of injuries, he said, Alison will be backing goal before the end of December, when he's fit, he will be playing. You know, so that, as he says, and Cleve knows that. But he did put a 10 in line, which he said, but not until he's 100%. So the definitely not taking the risk that took last time because he clearly put him back in when he maybe wasn't quite 100%. But Cleve shown slot how good he is. He's like, I don't need to rush him back at all. He did really touch down to the other's injuries. He just said, Kia's is back in full training, and he's getting closer. I don't think Kia's won it, squad. You might see him in the venture evidence, maybe. Don't mind that. I want to see him traveling. I want to see him traveling with the squad. I want to see him. I mean, he looked fit when we would beat Real Madrid, because he was very much celebrating on his score. So he's definitely biting into the thing there. I don't think he's as far away as what people think. I find the right game. It's finding the right game. And I just don't think the next two are the right games to be dropping a player into it, where their lack of minutes could be exposed. We're forced into one. You don't really want to be forcing yourself into two or three. Not at the same time at the minute when you don't have to. But someone said earlier, rotation can be a strength. And we definitely do need to be able to chop and change the squad to side with the volume of football that's coming, because it's not going to stop. Jordan asking when's Jotto back? I think Slott said before the international break. After this international break, and he said, I know that's six ones, he said, probably a couple of weeks after it. So I've always had in my head, Jotto will be in the squad for the Derby or Fulham. I think he's one of them he's back for. And I think that's kind of when they expected him back. I think you're more looking as hopefully getting him a start in the League Cup. I think he might be on the bench for the game before, even if he gets 10th, 20 minutes at the end. But I think you'd hope to see him with a couple of others starting in that League Cup game. You know, I think that would probably be the best way to use that. But let's do our 11 and then we'll do a position. We'll see if we agree. So go League. We both say kill her, don't we? Yeah. I'm keeping the back forwards the same. But I'm saying Quons will come on for the last 15, 20 minutes full Trent with the managers pretty much said it's going to happen. I tell you, I tell you what and this wouldn't surprise me. I wouldn't be a bit surprised. I think he'll try more and play the 90, 100%. But I wouldn't be a bit surprised if you see Curtis Jones used as a right back, depending on the game situation. It's going to be four, isn't it? Exactly. Because I think if you're, you know, touch wood and everything is going hunky-dory and you're two, two-nill up with 20 minutes to go. I think you could put Joe Gomez onto left back, drop take Robertson out of us. Quons in and center back and maybe take someone else off, bring Harvey Ali on for 20 minutes for Trent and which Gomez back into right back. You know, but at all, this is all if spots and maybe depending on how the game situation goes, because that's a win-win to get Harvey minutes. It's a win-win to get Robertson off the pitch for the last 20 and it brings Joe Quons back into center back as well. So, look. Thor's saying, just to back for Leicester, because he hates that, you had to be fair. No one hates Leicester more than they do, because I think this is where we disagree. Watch your midfield three and I'll say my midfield three. See, my midfield three is floating. I think he'll go with Gravenberch, McAllister and Jones. Okay. I think he'll go with Gravenberch, Jones, Sobber's life. Yeah, it wouldn't be adverse to that. But there's two reasons why we had the McAllister being on the bench. One, he's on four yellows now, because of his yellowy picked up at City and I think because of the way Everton will play, I think your need is creative spark more in that game. And two, that midfield that they're going to play of Joel Linton, Willock and Longstaff, Autanale. I think Bruno Gomarris, please, in the middle of the park with Sean Longstaff. And I think they're trying to free up Willock and Joel Linton. But I can see Anthony Gordon given that free role as a nine to be able to drift across the line to find it. So one thing, look, I remember I watched back the highlights of that two, one last for Newcastle win for us last season. Gordon took his goal really well. It was a Super ball back to Trent. Trent made a mistake and he snapped on it and he didn't think twice about the finish. It was a cool, composed finish. If he gets a sniff anywhere near with space to run into, he's leading the battle. And he's a man in form for them. By the way, Dan Jay, Nick, my team, which is really annoying. But I also thought for Physicality side, you know, I think this one of the games where I know it's a bit old, old school, but three, six footers in the middle will be quite handy. And then the front three, I would go with Salah, Nunez, Gackpo. Couple reasons. The reason I go for them three is Nunez and Gackpo's record at Newcastle is good. Gackpo's a man in form, goals-wise, I think it does news good. I'm protecting Diaz because I think he put an awful lot of running, especially as it falls down in the last two games. And I think it's just, that's the reason I was just protecting his legs. Yeah. No, I think that if I'm Liberamento and Shahra on that side, I do not want anything to do with Louis Diaz running at me. You know, and I think last season he had it, last season he ripped Kiran Trippier and Nunez. While he was 11, V-11, he destroyed it. And it looks like he just loved playing up there. He loved the space he was available to him. And I think on that side of the pitch, more unlikely, you could have Jacob Murphy, Sean Longstaff, Liberamento as Newcastle's right-hand side. So if you have Robertson, Diaz, and McAllister as our left-hand side of the pitch, I think they could have, they could really do some damage. But again, it's one of those. If Gackpo starts, totally understand why, totally understand the reasons for it. And it's not a drop-off. It's just a bit different. It's just a bit different. You know, what Gackpo lacks in pace, he gives you physicality and a real threat. I mean, to be fair, both him and Diaz are very good in the air, which is what people don't talk about. I just hope Darwin plays like he did when he came on against City. That's that type of, you know, destruction, because both centre backs at City couldn't be asked for that, you know. And I don't blame some guys about six foot four, big, strong powerful, Pacey won't leave you alone. And just harangue you can't be doing with that sometimes. So I look, I think as long as we play our game, we've got too much for them. Irrespective of what form they're in, I just look at their their potential 11. I look at our potential 11. We're just better than them. But at the same time, as we saw last season. Don't give them any hope. A red card changes a game. And that red card that Virgil picked up last season, while, you know, back in it, and it's like letter of the law kind of thing, it's soft, but it isn't a card. Yeah, I was amazed how much who harder was over it being right. Yeah. I know we'd, I know we'd, I know we'd had a, I think it was on the back of we'd had a couple of soft ones, you know, we'd had, yeah, the McAllister one, McAllister one, the Jones one, I get that. But that one to me was like, he's gone to clear the ball, he didn't get the ball, he kicked right through his ankle and he's clean through and he's, yeah, yeah, and he wasn't able to do anything. Or all the schoolers, I would say, you know, it's last month. Yeah, I know, do you want to rule? No, but it's the same thing. Yeah. But the other option that they do have is Harvey Barnes. Yeah. They could very well put Harvey Barnes and Anthony Gordon as like, not a pair up front, but it's too forward. I looked to flood the midfield and block off the space in the midfield and almost play like the away side, you know, where, I mean, Eddie has got a terrible record against us. But at the end of the day, it's like everything you keep doing, you keep doing it. Eventually, you'll, I think it's 17, it's played 17 games against Liverpool, and he hasn't, he hasn't, last win, he had was the four to the fourth, was it the four to four? The last game we lost when we led it half time. It's a form of yeah, the horrible green kit when Carrie said a fucking man. Yeah. So they have options, you know, it's not like they've got poor players. You've still got, I haven't mentioned tonality too much. And you've got Harvey Barnes as well. So they've got good. They carry a goal threat. They'll be at home. They're proud to be well up for it. You know, they hate us. So it's like, listen, Newcastle's getting beat. Our way fans will be right up in the nosebleed section as well. It'd be like to watch you on a stream with a little bit of fun. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's a, it's an Amazon prime. So honestly, I'll, I'll be doing the post-match show on the game. We'll still be on. Let me tell you that that crowd. That's how slow Amazon prime is. It's a horrendous. Both. I digress. So score prediction. You know the rules. Yeah, to know. I think I agree with what a comment. I agree with what you said in one of the comments, I don't know, one of the shows recently. This side looks like an absolute, it's absolutely fallen in love with defending against, you know, and we look like we're absolute risers in giving up chances. Let alone giving up, you know, goals or what have you. It looks like they take unbridge and offense when they give up a chance. You know, so, and I absolutely love it. I absolutely love it. It's, it's going to be a massive task to pick up a clean sheet up there again and to keep the wrong going. But I fancy, I think there's goals in this side. I think we've scored 13 now in our last five. Yeah. Against them or just in general? No, in general. We're, we're just in really good form at the minute and you just want that form to continue. So score 13 can see five wins one draw, top of the form guy. We also want to talk about, because a few people that are higher up than, I built it, people realize, but we'll go through that in a minute. So who you go scorers for our two, Neil? My goal scorers are Darrben and Darrben. Double Darrben. Double Darrben. Double D. Double Darrben. So that mean, Dan J, don't worry, because he's Pukjoga, I was the score. I mean, we don't love it, but I would love it. Kevin Gigan. I'm going to go with Avos 3-1, but I'll go Vergmo and I do think Darrben will score. But I'm going 3-1, because I think Golden will score for them. So, but what's interesting is, while we've got, while we've got our game on, there's a quite a few other games going up at the same time. Yeah. Oh, by the way, our game is 7-30 kickoff, right? So no matter what happens, we won't be doing a post match. I don't want to be coming on doing a post match until after the other games finish. If everyone in the chat is okay with that, let us know. If you want to come on like quarter of an hour after our game finishes, let us know. Put it in your comments after the show tonight, but let us know what time you want us to come on and do the post match show tomorrow night, because I think most of us will want to keep an eye on these two later pickups. So if you guys want to do that, then we'll come on straight after both. Put it in the comments after the show, and Gab will be able to spot it, and he'll let us know what he wants us to do. Bit of honor, admin. Jonathan, I'll be honest. If that happens, while the post match show will be amazing, I might not make it, because I might have a heart attack. He's put two on Salah 93rd, 95th minute. Pardon my language, fuck that. I've already just recovered him. The amount of 95 minute winners we had last last year, I don't want to know one of them. Though admittedly, Kev, although it was a shit season, that car value winner, I feel, was still the great post that shows you me doing it. The rest of that season was shy, but that one night was going to be brilliant. Yeah, I really enjoyed it. Well, it looks up to you guys, so just put it in the comments section after the show finishes tonight, and Gab will see it, and he'll tell us what he wants to do. Yeah, so let's talk about some of the other games, because I'm going to talk about, you know, rivals are just below us. So Arsenal have played Money United at Arsenal, which is a big game. Did you know Money United are third in the form guide for the last six games? Yeah, yeah. Arsenal are 10th. You know, for all the bleeds and moaning conspiracy theories, Arsenal fans have, and basically, football is going to pop up, so you do all the social media stuff, usual excitement. There's a little bit of getting your own house in order, a little bit here, because two wins of the last six is not really great, and they're not even averaging two points a game at the moment. You know, so if we're saying at the moment, I did some rough masks, we're doing a 90-point season. Arsenal are going to have to go at a rate of 2.6, 2.6 a game over the rest of the season. That's a big ass, that's like winning like 20 to 21 of your remaining games. Whereas for us to get to 90 now, we couldn't get away with winning probably 17. So there's a long way to go, but you know, they've got to get a rig level to form soon, and it's probably the worst time to play Money United, because new manager, confidence, got a couple, got a win under his belt. I know it was against Poref to decide, but he's got the win under his belt. Yeah. You've got to play United 10, you don't want 10 hours United then, because you don't quite know what the new fella's going to give you at the goals. Yeah. Is the thing right? I think Arsenal, when they get their best 11 on the pitch, they're as good as anything in Italy. All right. And that's just the truth. I just don't think they can get their best that they can keep their best 11 on the pitch, often enough, given the run of giving the amount Arteza has run them for the last two years. I think they're being asked an awful lot of questions this season, and it's mainly around their physicality. Can they physically keep going? Like they need to keep going. And that's the difficult thing. I think they'll be, you know, I'd be surprised if they didn't. I mean, it would be funny if they didn't, you know, it'd be great for us, but I would be very, very surprised if Arsenal don't comfortably dismantle this well, but is still a very flimsy match to United 11. I don't care what the forehand blade says. If they're predicted line up as Harry Maguire, the late and Mazwari at the back, in the back three with Delo and Ahmed as your wingbacks, those two wingbacks will be pushed back all night long, and Arsenal will push them back into a five, and they don't have the legs in midfield to be able to keep up with the likes of Audegar and Royce part. They just don't. On any measure, if Manchester United got anything out of tomorrow night's game, it would be a massive achievement, massive. It would be, it would be, but Arsenal dropped a lot of their points against mid-table sites. So you never know. Anyway, you never know. But in fairness, when Arsenal were dropping points, let's be honest, it was when they were, they didn't have Audegar and Saka wasn't available. I think you take those two players out of that side, they're a completely different beast. I think they're getting players sent off, which was also quite funny. Yeah. Yeah. Villa against Brentford, Villa have gone massively off the boil. I think it's one win in the last six in the league, but in all competitions, it's like no wins in the last eight. It looks like there's a room without Martine, there's just to have a surgery on his finger. So it's going to be also in goal. Yeah, and now they're at home to Brentford, who are a mad side. They are top of the form guide at home. They have the best home record in the league away from them. They're absolutely bobbins, instead of getting points, he's got to get a point away from home. But with no Martine's and the way Brentford played, that's clearly a good challenge for them that. Especially Bangswell, because I'll be honest, they were humbled by Chelsea quite comfortably. I think with Brentford, if they can keep Dam's guard fitting available and get them on the ball, they're a difficult prospect for anyone at the minute. In Buemau, Viscer, Shiree, they've got forwards who are in form. They've got defenders who don't mind defending, actually set Van de Berghis having a decent season for them. It looks like the move to there has paid off for him. It's doing really well, but this is a huge game for Villa. Villa have to get a win out of this game to kick start their season again, because they're in danger of Europe being a real problem for them. The volume of football on the squad depth is a real problem. If they don't get a win tomorrow night, or even if they lose tomorrow night, you can see the Villa crowd starting to ask questions of who I am right. While he's got credit in the bank, that credit isn't endless. The record, the run of games that he's on at the minute, he could start feeling a bit of pressure. Yeah, I think what is to answer at home to Chelsea, I would assume a routine Chelsea when we don't really talk about it. Chelsea are the full-time. Be interested with Southampton, because Southampton, even against Brighton, boss the ball. The generally rubbish in both boxes. What did you make in that VAR decision at the end, the one that took like seven minutes, where that dislodged already? Absolute nonsense. They said he's interfering with play. The balls played behind him, and he doesn't touch the ball. He doesn't touch the ball, so that's one negative against it. It's played behind him. He's nowhere near the keeper's island, because the keeper doesn't even complain that he's in it. To me, I think they got done there. Yeah, I think that's a goal. He got outside by a country mile, and answered the debate. He's literally in front of the keeper. He's in an offside position. The defender stops. The defender doesn't even challenge him, because he can see his offside. And he's straight in front of the keeper. How's he not interfering? I saw a goal. I saw him. I thought he's in my offside. But then again, I've got no time for these, so I'm to manage it. So I actually was quite fully watching this out with me, so I didn't care. It was hilarious seeing his boss match. Oh, he's hilarious, because I just can't stand his arrogance. Yeah, his arrogance, but he's not back to the other hand. No, exactly. He's talking as if he's actually achieved something. It's like he got up in the playoffs against the run. You know, he wasn't expecting to come up. And he's suffering for, I said the last night, he's suffering from Vincent Company's syndrome. We are going to play this way, because this is how I believe football should be played. You've been done the championship next season. Or a Bayern Munich. Or how it works. Yeah. That's how it works. Hey, look, he's a Bayern Munich, Vinny is a Bayern Munich, because he's Vincent Company, and that's the only reason he's a Bayern Munich. Well, it does help. It does help. Right, let's talk about the two big games that we all really want to have a bit of talk about. Man City at home to Forrest. I'll probably say a few weeks ago, you go routeie Man City when City hadn't won in seven. Forrest are second in the foreign guide, four wins, two losses. Chris was on fire. They've got pace to burn. They've got two, they've got a centre-back pair that love defending, and they're a good partnership. They've got a better keeping on what they've had for a while. I just keep looking going. City should win. You know, if you ask me to put me running on something, would you put on a City win? Probably, yeah. But I think it's going to be a bit of a horrible game. This could turn into one of those horrible games for City. And by the way, that result has proper rattles over their City players. I didn't mind that the Pep put in six things up to the crowd, because I thought, do you know what? He was getting sick of the crowd. He gave it back to you. That's the fun of football. What I didn't like is the comments after. I didn't like Ruben Diaz's comments, which is just stunk of arrogance of like, we've won the link so many times. It was like, how dare you question us. The keeper talk about how it's a poor part of the world. So that's why they say things like that. And it was it was being a bit overprecious. Oh, I didn't expect that from the football crowd. Did you not? That's not all football crowds. All football crowds. All football crowds. You didn't get to do that. You know, so I didn't like that side of it. But it'd be interesting for the kids. I don't think he's got many options to rotate. I think, look, I was surprised the other day that he didn't go over groups. Because it's the one thing the greenish will do. And I know Jack Greenish hasn't been on form this season. The one thing he will do is get you up to pitch and he'll win your fouls. You'll win your fouls, you'll get your set pieces. You can work from there. When you're playing against the side like Liverpool, who will try to dominate the ball. And that's what you need. Someone who can relieve pressure. I just wanted to come back to what Mick said actually there one second. I firmly believe that goal was offside and nothing else will change my mind on it. Sorry, it just is one of this for me. But man, I watched Pep's sit down interview with Sky before our game. I watched it tonight actually. And he's all open enough. I think he's got no choice. I think that interview is actually as honest an interview as I've seen him do in a while. Where he's literally sat down and he basically sat down and said, they haven't got to end them to go again. They've won four titles in a row. That is ridiculous by any way stretch. And forget the charges for a second. Winning four titles in a row is ridiculous. Okay, asking that same core squad, that core squad to go and do it a fifth time after you bought badly is never going to happen. That's the broadest thing most of you don't feel like city players? No, I think I've made a great point in one of the shows recently. You look at the wingers that they lost in Marais and Sterling. Marais and Sterling carry goal threats at Man City. Marais coming on with 20 minutes to go on your off. Shit, I hate to do it. Yeah, Leroy Sane. You know, Leroy Sane is a note man. You know, this slot, Savinio doesn't carry a goal threat. He's a tricky winger who, you know, he'll give service to Highland. But he's not going to help Highland with, you know, taking the pressure off into score. Doku to save. Doku's a tricky winger. He'll put balls into the box. You'll beat a winger. Yeah, he'll beat. I don't even know that. I don't keep us balls in the box. He's just beating his man three times. I watched him the other day, right? And he does do a job with a full back. But he will cut back balls into the box. And it's up to the midfield who don't have the legs to get up and make the numbers. This is their problem. Do you know what I'd be very interested in watching that game tomorrow night is Yates? Yates is the type of player for Forrest who, if he's available and if he plays, he'll get about that midfield and he'll kick alongside of a few of them. And they don't have the, as Keith would say, they don't have the minerals to be able to give it back. And I think they're desperate. Look, we know they're missing Rod Dream, but they're desperately missing coverage. They don't have a natural central midfielder in that squad. And I think City will probably get a result. But I don't think it's, I think this could be anything but easy. I just think Forrest will go down. I think Forrest will be a bit starstruck. And I just, I don't know if they will roll over, but you saw it in the Arsenal game. They were just soft. But both. They ask it was weird because, again, another one of the dispelled myths for Arsenal, which is like, we all people always play teams at the right time. I think they had three of their best players didn't get involved. Chris Woders on the bench. Woden gets right, wasn't even in the squad. You know, so it plays in Seattle a little bit. I still think it's mental that Alvarez left. And I understand he wanted to leave a record for a lot, but didn't try having anybody in because he played a lot of game last year. And he was, if Harlan didn't score, Alvarez got you. Yeah, exactly. And that's the bit they haven't really solved is, if Harlan doesn't score, who should regular back up, it can't be, it can't keep me in the centre back. Yeah, out there. And the other thing I suppose, if you look at it that way, Forrest have a Chris Wood who can get him up the pitch. And Morgan gives why, look, I think Forrest will do really well to keep him. I think he's better. He's capable of playing at a higher level than what he is at. Nothing, Forrest. He's kind of like reminds me of, as an Anton Cimenio board of, I think he's a level above, I think he can play in Europe, whether it's at a top-top level or whatever, I think he could play in European competitions on a regular basis. So it'll be an interesting result, keep an eye on for sure. Yeah, the other one though. The last one is Everton at home to Wolves. This is the proper old-school six-pointer. If Wolves win, which will only be their second win of a season, they will go above Everton. That's how tight it is at the bottom. One win takes you quite clear. Everton's problem is they can't score goals. Even when they got battered for a little bit, they shouldn't have scored a couple before they got their first. But they can't score. And Wolves's problem is they can't help conceding goals. Even to the stage where the keeper tries to give a side of helping hands. Ah, that set. Which one was worth... That's the first penalty of the way we second won, both were quite topical. The second one was ridiculous. Yeah, the second one was bad. But at the same time, you have to question the defender passing the ball back in the first place. That's why I question the manager. Because the manager is telling them to pass out from the back through the thirds. Yeah. And what have you. But you've got players there who are not capable of doing that. I do think with the third goal, it might do more of a... Yeah, it's fine to pass but it's the keeper. I just think it gets the pass all wrong. Could you completely hit it? It was a bad one. I don't think that has anything to do with style of play or what man it doesn't. I think it's just a generic fucker. And... Well, you know... Gab was lifting off the pictures that Everton have coming up. All right. And I haven't got... I haven't got them to hand. All right. But I don't think it makes pleasant reading. Tomorrow night for Everton is 100% most win at all costs. They have to get a win tomorrow night. Because... The more I go back to what Gab was saying last night, and if you haven't watched the show from last night, go back and watch it. The runner results they have between now and the middle of January is very conceivable that if they don't get a win tomorrow night, they won't get a win until early next year. Right, here's Everton's fiction list then. So they've got Wolves at home, then it's Liverpool at home, Arsenal away, Chelsea at home, City away on Boxing Day, Forest at home, and then in January Bournemouth away before they played Peterborough in the cup. And then the game after Peterborough is Villa at home, then it's Tottenham at home, right away, and then first of February, it's Leicester at home. That's a long time. That's a nasty run of fixtures. In fairness, if you're even... I'm not saying that just to wind, I'm telling you if we had that run, you'd be going, "Oh, that's a bit of a run we've got." So I think as run of fixtures go, that's not nice at the best at times, but if you're a manager in that situation, or if you're Everton, and you're even contemplating getting rid of Sean Deish, if you're a manager coming in, looking at that squad, looking at that run of fixtures, you're not hiding to nothing, even if they could get someone to come in, of note. I dare in a world of trouble. I didn't realise how much trouble they were actually in until we were talking about it last night. Yeah, sort of crept up in here, because the previous year, there's always been the PSR stuff, so you kind of went, "Oh, that's kind of what's causing it." But, yeah, this year, it just hasn't got to go yet. I mean, but the big prime Brazil on Saturday, but that's a different preview, I'm sure. Don't worry about that. I think they're more likely to be prime Eurogluey back in the day with Eurogluey and they were kicking inside of you. So they put in the chat box. Samalevase has bolted over those days. That was crept down for us. That's Samalevase vault inside. It was horrible. Yeah, 100%. But, yeah, I mean, this week, this two sets of fixtures, midweek and weekend, could be moving day for a lot of clubs. Yeah. Yeah. And we'll see how the table looks at the end of it, but the hope is we do our part, pick up six points off in the next two games. Which takes more if it was offered to you now. No, I wish we should be picking up six. Yeah. That's not, you know, genuinely. If you'd have offered me that option on the week that we've just had, then I'd be, I'd be, yeah, I'd take a draw, I'm waiting a draw out of Madrid and Man City. Either order, take your pick, no problem. New Castle as much as a life threat as there can be at home. We have enough to beat them, and Everton away, as long as you play Everton, and not last derby at Goodison Park and the atmosphere and buy into all that crap, then we should get a good win there. The hope is that you come out with players healthy. You know, that Joel Inton doesn't decide to keep lumps out of players, and Everton players don't decide to try to... The next two games will be quite, it will be quite physical. It will be physical, yeah. Physical. And look, that's not crying. And that's just, you know, that's the way they play. You know, look, you've got to adapt to it, but that will take a lot of out of it, because I think the City game, well, wasn't overly physical, but I think it's got a lot of emotion around it, because of, you know, who it is, and you know, you know, beat the rival, just, you know, adds a bit of extra spice to the game. So, cool. Right. Anything else kept before we go? Yeah, just one thing there. Give me one second. I just need to find it. Oh, why are you doing that? Don't forget our two charity partners. The Lighthouse Cafe in Dublin, and the fans are supporting food banks in Liverpool. We are aiming to try and get to 10,000 euro, 5,000 for each charity. Links in the description below. So, if you can give, please give, if you can't give, please share it around WhatsApp groups, put it on social media, you know, trying, let's try and get as much money as we can for these charities, especially this time of year. You know, we don't want people going hungry around Christmas time. So, if you can give to that, that'll be amazing. Right. And the other one is football prizes. Oh, good job. Dakota, UK, are back with huge Liverpool competition, Stryker's edition. Louis Suarez signed and custom LED framed Liverpool shirt, plus 19-dollar instant win prizes. And the links for that will be going out on all the socials over the next 24 hours. If, when you see them, have a look, have a go. Great present for someone for Christmas. But it's 395 a ticket. There are 500 tickets available. The competition ends on Friday the 13th of December at 7.30 p.m. The other shirts that I'm seeing on here are Dio Verjata, Robbie Fowler, Mike Lowen, Devockarighi, Fernando Torres, all shirts for them. And plus various other prizes. So, check it out and have a go. And let us know if you actually get a win as well, because Ashley put up some stuff that she's won on there in the past. So, it'd be nice to get some other viewers in there and get some good wins there. Yeah. Cool. All right, guys. I'm a happy note. Please like, please subscribe. All that good stuff. Don't get to leave comments after the show, because, you know, we do like you feedback. We do read the feedback. So, go on. But let us know about the backgrounds. Just let us know about the backgrounds. If you want us to keep them, great. We'll find some different ones. We'll find ones you like. If you don't, you want us to go back to just how it was. Let us know. And that's what we'll do. Also, let us know about what time you want us to come on tomorrow and open the show. If you want us to come on after the Arsenal game, let us know if you want us to come on, yeah, within 10 minutes of our game. Finish him. We'll do that, too. No problem. Fair enough. Cool. Right. So, until then, we will see, well, be careful of the back tomorrow. I think we've got Ashley and Matt. I think we've got... Ashley's back tomorrow. Matt, I think Matt, full house tomorrow. Well, we'll let Matt back in after his Galavans. You know what he's like. Right. I'm happy note. Take care of yourselves. Speak to you soon. Thank you. There you go.
