Unseen Incidents with Patrick and Pete

What's up everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents!

Hey everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. Xabi Alonso to Real Madrid looks like a done deal, but how much sense does this make for the floundering Blancos? What is everyone getting wrong about this switch? Why is his Leverkusen a bad blueprint for the Spanish giants? And what do they need this summer to make it work?

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents! This week, Pete is absent for BIG REASONS so I am all by myself, working through a pile of listener questions. I look at Brighton's ambitions and how they should approach a UCL or title run; whether Forest can repeat this exceptional campaign and the dangers of "opening up" a defensive gameplan; and whether Mikel Arteta has reached his ceiling at second place. No Burn Book this week, but please continue to send in questions and get in your suggestions for potential guests over at Patreon, Twitter, or Bluesky!

Hey everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. We're wrapping up the transfer window this week by rating some of January's biggest moves. What do we not look about the Dorgu to Manchester United deal? Are Spurs setting themselves up for failure with Mathys Tel? Do City's moves solve their problems? And what is happening with Xavi Simons? Then it's the Burn Book, with the Golf League, gym advice, and my wife's book.

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This week we had the exact same idea as everyone else in the football world, as we discuss the crises at Tottenham and Manchester United. How much blame does Ange get for Spurs' troubles, and why would changing manager potentially make things worse? Has Ruben Amorim actually done anything at United yet, or is the positive stuff purely down to Amad Diallo? Then we've got the Burn Book, with BMW drivers, hero worship, and being the devil on a friend's shoulder. Thanks for listening, and please consider subscribing at patreon.com/patrickvs for more episodes!

Hey everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. The transfer window is open, so this week we're talking three players who need an escape from their current clubs. Marcus Rashford wants out of Manchester United, but what has he got left to offer, and why do none of the suitors make sense? Jack Grealish is clearly irrelevant at City, but would a switch to Spurs help? And Eduardo Camavinga remains one of the best young midfielders in the world, so why isn't he treated that way at Real Madrid? Then it's the Burn Book, with sex segregation, non-fiction, and cafetières. Thanks for listening, and please consider subscribing at Patreon.com/patrickvs for the bonus episodes.

Hello everyone, we're back for another episode, and after swearing we wouldn't do a preview, we did one. But while we naturally predict the PL winner - and disagree - we also talk through some more intriguing topics. Which top four team do we expect to disappoint us this season? Which mid-table player do we think is primed to become a superstar? And which Arsenal player is on his redemption tour?

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This time we're previewing Liverpool, who face arguably the biggest change this off-season as they enter a post-Klopp world. We discuss how Arne Slot will set up, why he's a good and bad fit for the Reds, and how he might use the players at his disposal - as well as the positions Liverpool need to target in the remainder of the window to maintain their standing.

What's up everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents! On this week's show, we are discussing the transfer rumours already flying with 23/24 barely done. Benjamin Sesko has been linked with a £45m switch to Arsenal, but how might he improve on Gabriel Jesus, and what are the concerns in his numbers? Would Crysencio Summerville make sense for Liverpool, and what can we learn from his great season in the Championship? And then there's Spurs' reported interest in Eberechi Eze, coming off a fantastic season. We look into Glasner's use of him, and why that might work (or not work) for Tottenham.

Welcome back to the Unseen Incidents podcast! We're a week late this time due to me having another baby but now I'm back to coparent our audience with Pete. We're taking stock of the Liverpool situation, after Klopp announced his summer departure. What sort of squad has he been building? Why might Liverpool's style be an issue long-term?

First up we have our predictions for the year ahead, including Premier League and Champions League winners, the coming summer's headline transfers, and surprise teams on the up. Then we turn our attention to the Premier League midtable, and ask how high teams like West Ham, Brentford, and Brighton can aim. Is Villa's success replicable? What did Leicester teach us? We also spend a bit of time on the Irons, trying to figure out if they're a crap team who seem good, or a good team who seem crap.

On this week's episode of Unseen Incidents, we're diving headfirst into the debate around Liverpool. Yes, they lost to Spurs, but plenty of people think a title challenge is a reasonable possibility for the Reds, and that they are back above Arsenal and Newcastle, but what suggests that's right, and what are the red flags?

Hello and welcome to the Unseen Incidents podcast, where this week we're asking whether Arsenal are actually bottling the Premier League.
