Patrick and Ted are back for their first World Cup episode, working through the opening round of fixtures and the early transfer window stories. On the games: Brazil vs Morocco raised serious questions about Ancelotti's side, and Patrick had a few rants pending. The USA looked more convincing than anyone expected against Paraguay. Turkey managed 30 shots and 1.40 xG against Australia, which will surprise nobody who has watched Turkey at a major tournament before. Ivory Coast edged Ecuador in a game that was more fun than it had any right to be. On transfers: Ayyoub Bouaddi ran circles around Brazil at 18 years old and PSG, Arsenal and Liverpool are all circling. Ted and Patrick dig into what his numbers actually look like and whether the £60-70M fee makes sense for any of them. Christos Tzolis is reportedly heading to Arsenal and could be a straight swap for Martinelli. And Marc Cucurella is off to Real Madrid on a six year deal, which raises the question of what exactly Real Madrid are doing this summer.

The Double Pivot: Soccer analysis, analytics, and commentary
A big win for the United States Men's National Team (USMNT, pronounced us-mnt) that validated belief in Mauricio Pochettino and the system he built for these players. We get into why the xG isn't quite as impressive as one might expect, the distinctive tactics you could see in action during the game, and just how far out over skis one might reasonably get after this match.

Scott and Adam process Arsenal's penalty shootout defeat to PSG in the Champions League Final, a loss that stings without feeling like an indictment of the performance. The episode opens 24 hours on, with both hosts landing somewhere closer to proud than devastated. Adam keeps coming back to Gabriel, who skied the decisive penalty and deserved that ending less than almost anyone, and to the sense that a shootout loss tells you very little about a team. Scott frames it against the alternative: this was not Inter getting blown out in last year's final. Arsenal were in this one. It played out almost exactly as he predicted, a tight game decided by a handful of moments, right on the knife edge, and this time the edge fell PSG's way. The match breakdown is the heart of the episode, and both hosts land on the same read. Arsenal made a conscious choice to cede possession, sit in a medium-low block, and use PSG's strengths against them. It worked. Scott notes that outside the penalty, PSG managed only four chances above ten percent xG, and through 90 minutes the non-penalty xG was roughly 0.8 to 0.6 in Arsenal's favor, with the two biggest chances of the game both falling to Havertz. The argument both hosts make is that the 72-28 possession split and lopsided shot count are not evidence of a problem, they are evidence of a plan. PSG had no central access, no zone 14 touches, and visibly ran out of ideas against a team built to deny exactly that. As Adam puts it, there is a difference between not threatening because you cannot and not threatening because you are not trying to, and that distinction is the whole game. Doing this to one of the two or three best attacks in the world is an accomplishment, not a failure. From there the conversation turns to the officiating, which both hosts felt was unusually prominent. The referee twice blew his whistle before Arsenal could take a corner, a pointed and demonstrative call you almost never see outside a blowout, and the run of ticky-tack fouls and Saka's yellow consistently punished whichever side was out of possession, which by design was Arsenal. On the two major decisions, they agree the Mosquera penalty was correct if soft, and that the Madueke no-call on Nuno Mendes in extra time was a far bigger miss. Scott makes the point he keeps returning to: a no-call is a call, it shaped the game in PSG's favor just as surely as a whistle would have shaped it in Arsenal's, and being afraid to make the call is the real failing. The substitutions get a full airing. The Timber-for-Mosquera change at the hour was the easy one to back. Bringing Odegaard off for Gyokeres made sense for transitional speed and tired legs, but Adam thinks pulling that much technical quality out of midfield hurt Arsenal's ability to build, a pattern they have seen before this season. The bigger sticking point is Saka. Both hosts understand the fitness logic given his calf, but Saka is the moments player, the one you want available for the four chances a game like this offers and for the shootout itself. The counterpoint is that Enrique pulled Dembele, Kvaratskhelia and Vitinha too, so both teams reached penalties without their best takers. On the shootout, the hosts dig into the margins, from Safonov reading the scouting report to sit middle for Rice, to Eze's hesitation-filled, twisted run-up that produced a poor strike, to the general debate over the stutter-step approach and whether it is worth the loss of balance unless you take penalties constantly like Lewandowski or Jorginho. PSG won both coin tosses, took the shootout at their own end, and chose to go second. Arsenal missed two. They close on the long view. It is almost 20 years to the day since the 2006 final loss, and the parallels are there, but the key difference is that 2006 marked the end of a chapter while this team is squarely in its prime. Over the next three to five years, this is a side that should be among the best in Europe with more cracks at the trophy to come. Lewis-Skelly, not yet 20, and a 24-year-old Saka anchor a group with time on its side. PSG will likely be back too, and neither host would mind another go at them. Learn more about your ad choices.

For the Glory KC is back with the 180th episode of the show!Before we get to the podcast, the KC Soccer Journal is having a free event at the Indian Creek Library in Olathe. Tickets are free and you can get them here!Sporting Kansas City couldn't string together three wins in a row for the first time since 2022. Perhaps after MLS returns from the 2026 FIFA World Cup break. Sporting KC nearly pulled off the comeback after a slow start against Red Bull New York on Saturday night.It was Star Wars night at Sporting Park and Sheena and I talk our off the field escapades, in addition to what happened on the pitch. After New York's quick start, Sporting KC generated numerous opportunities and nearly doubled RBNY's expected goal (xG) output, according to Fotmob (1.69 to 0.88).Though they had the greater chances, they failed to finish too consistently. Additionally, their mistakes were punished more readily. That doesn't even account for all the chances that didn't lead to a shot when a player took one too many touches or made a poor pass to kill an attack. Despite that, Kansas City remained in the game until the dying minutes. A welcome change after 5-0 and 6-0 blowouts just a few weeks back.We talk through all the highs and lows, as well as time spent on Capita, Berg Johnsen, Manu Garcia, Taylor Calheira, Shapi, Jake Davis and others. Sheena even breaks out a top-ranking list for SKC and the Current.In addition to the game, we talk through Austin FC firing their coach and Sporting Director after losing to Sporting KC, Or Blorian leaving his last club on a high, Zorhan Bassong's shot at a World Cup roster and Zamir Loyo Reynaga scoring in his latest international endeavor.The KC Current were up and down this week. They ended the week on a high, beating the then first place Portland Thorns. But their midweek road loss to Angel City FC soured the week a bit. Temwa Chawinga continued her Golden Boot climb and the ongoing Ally Sentnor/Haley Hopkins debate gets another chapter.In the Digital Crawl, we hit on a few more topics, including:SKC II resultsMessi injured?USMNT roster for the World Cup!Here is a rundown of sections and start times:Intro - 0:00Sporting KC - 1:59KC Current - 54:18Digital Crawl - 1:14:41Upcoming GamesSKC II @ Real Monarchs, FRI, May 29th at 9:00PM CSTKC Current vs Boston Legacy, SAT, May 30th at 12:30PM As a special gift to For the Glory KC listeners and KC Soccer Journal readers, Backheeled.com is giving away 30 days of their amazing, independent American soccer coverage for free.

「コカイン使用の「XG」元プロデューサー・SIMONこと酒井じゅんほ被告、初公判で起訴内容認める 東京地裁」 コカインを使用した罪に問われている人気アーティストグループ「XG」の元プロデューサーの男が、初公判で起訴内容を認めました。「XG」の元プロデューサー「SIMON」こと酒井じゅんほ被告(39)は2026年2月、愛知県内のホテルでコカインを使用したとして麻薬取締法違反の罪に問われています。午後1時半から始まった初公判で、酒井被告は起訴内容について間違いないか問われると、「ありません」と述べ、認めました。被告人質問では「XG」について、「自分の人生をかけてやってきた」と述べたうえで、「深く反省しています。二度と繰り返すことはないと誓います」と述べました。検察側は、拘禁刑1年6カ月を求刑し、判決は6月1日に言い渡されます。
Spurs lost 2-1 at Chelsea — but the numbers say we were the better side. 2.15 xG to Chelsea's 1.09, and 67% of the game's big chances. And now the whole season comes down to one game against Everton. Jim is joined on The Originals by Stu in Dubai and Si in Switzerland to pick through a frustrating night at Stamford Bridge and answer a stack of Oso 33 member questions. We get into why the data and the eye test tell completely different stories, the Enzo Fernández screamer and the Kinsky question, the front-three problem and an honest defence of Richarlison, the VAR decisions still baffling us — the Delap elbow, the Cucurella booking that makes no sense — and what fans can realistically do about officiating. Plus the most honest question of the season from Oso 33 member Howard: have Spurs ever stressed you this much, and how are you coping? A point against Everton on Sunday and we're safe. The Originals is the panel show from Oh So Spurs — higher-quality, more nuanced fan content from people who've actually been through this season. Smarter than the angry-pundit register, but still fans, with the cautious belief that comes with it. If you got something out of the episode, please follow the show, drop us a rating, and share it with a Spurs fan who needs to get through to Sunday. And to the OhSo33 crew, keep it lily-white.

#1007 | Ed and Dan review Manchester United's 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest in the final home game of the season. More than 4 xG created, 29 shots taken and Bruno Fernandes' 20th assist. Plenty of entertainment on offer. It's Michael Carrick's 11th win of his short tenure, but he's found a way for United to keep emerging victorious from these narrow-margin games. It was a day when Casemiro said farewell to Old Trafford, Luke Shaw scored his first goal for three years, and Bryan Mbeumo eventually got on the scoresheet too. There was some controversy about Matteus Cunha's goal, although rules are rules, innit? Inevitably, the conversation turns to the summer.

On this week's episode of That Peter Crouch Podcast, Pete, Sids and Chris dive headfirst into one of the wildest Listener Mail episodes yet — and absolutely nothing is off limits. From pink eye, polyps and footballers wearing makeup on live TV… to whether finishing SECOND deserves an open-top bus parade, the lads somehow manage to cover it all.There's chaos as the boys debate if modern football has officially gone soft, including refs with trendy haircuts, xG nerds, shirt-off celebrations, and whether heading could eventually disappear from the game entirely. Plus, a listener's all-time “Games Gone” rant sparks one of the funniest football debates they've had in ages.Elsewhere, Pete reveals his secret childhood career working in his grandad's butcher shop, the Wealdstone Raider officially dumps Chris for Crouchy, and there's an unbelievable story involving someone legally named after the entire 1979 Liverpool team.The lads also react to bizarre old-school footballer tweets, discuss marathon punishments for the Football League, rank Aussie icons in a “Down Under Vanarama,” and preview the FA Cup Final with the help of Chris' wife Ria — who might actually be better at predictions than all three of them combined.It's listener mail at its absolute finest: ridiculous football chat, nostalgia, complete nonsense, and plenty of classic pod chaos.Chumbawamba00:00 - Intro, makeup chat & Chris' pink eye reveal03:15 - Polyps, bllocks & why the lads do this to themselves04:27 - Fans listening to the pod on the London Underground05:12 - Shin pad injury update & the listener who got slashed06:02 - Does SECOND place deserve an open-top bus parade?07:18 - Playoff winners vs automatic promotion debate08:50 - The Wealdstone Raider officially dumps Chris10:22 - Will the Wealdstone Raider come on the podcast?11:45 - Sponsored Segment with England15:52 - Download the England app!19:01 - Listener Mail officially begins19:21 - The unbelievable football shirt sent from Vanuatu20:48 - The lads decide to give the shirt away21:24 - Aussie caravans & the “Down Under Vanarama”25:31 - Steve Irwin, Alf Stewart & Toadfish in a Vanarama26:51 - Sids loses it at “Beanpole, Fire Pbes and One Ball”27:18 - Serious chat about checking yourself & men's health29:31 - A listener legally named after Liverpool's 1979 team30:43 - Charlie Otway's insane full name explained31:58 - Marathon punishment ideas for the Football League34:58 - The funniest accidental footballer tweets ever36:44 - “Games Gone” mega-rant begins37:11 - Referees with trendy haircuts debate37:29 - xG, “big chances” & football nerd culture38:19 - Shirt-off celebrations & VAR frustrations39:00 - Why clubs keep buying young foreign players39:20 - Is football removing physical contact from the game?40:23 - Players showing personality vs media backlash42:49 - Football League table update & Ria's prediction success45:24 - FA Cup Final preview: Chelsea vs Manchester City47:42 - Paddy Power's Minister of Mischief returns49:32 - Has Chris replaced the listeners with his wife?50:53 - Ria gives her FA Cup predictions52:28 - The lads react to Ria outperforming them54:30 - Why the FA Cup Final morning feels special57:00 - Predictions: Man United vs Forest & Newcastle vs West Ham58:37 - Paddy's Boost selections01:01:18 - OutroThe Official England squad drops May 22nd on the England App first - if you want to see who is making Tuchel's squad download the app here :https://england.onelink.me/rgxW/lbj1at4bAnd if you want to be in with a chance of winning an official signed England shirt - submit your selects in the Squad Selector by May 21st . #adFor more Peter Crouch: Twitter - https://twitter.com/petercrouch Therapy Crouch - https://www.youtube.com/@thetherapycrouch For more Chris Stark Twitter - https://twitter.com/Chris_StarkInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/chrisstark/For more Steve Sidwell Twitter - https://twitter.com/sjsidwell Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/stevesidwell14 #PeterCrouch #ThatPeterCrouchPodcast Hosted on Acast.

For further details go to https://saily.com/bloodred Mark Jones is joined by Ian Doyle and Paul Gorst to digest a toxic afternoon at Anfield as Liverpool's stuttering season hit a new low with a 1-1 draw against a struggling Chelsea side. Despite Ryan Gravenberch giving the Reds an early lead, a lackluster performance allowed Enzo Fernandez to level for a Chelsea team that arrived on the back of six straight defeats. As the visitors grew in confidence, the frustration in the stands became audible, culminating in a chorus of boos at the final whistle and earlier tactical substitutions. On the Agenda: We break down why Liverpool struggled to impose themselves on a Chelsea side low on confidence, resulting in one of the lowest home xG scores in recent years. The panel discusses the significance of the Anfield boos and the growing disconnect between the supporters and Arne Slot's "lack of intensity." With rumors intensifying regarding potential successors like Xabi Alonso and reports of a "summer review," is Slot's position now untenable despite being on the brink of Champions League qualification? Liverpool remain in the top four, but with Bournemouth and Aston Villa still in the hunt, how nervy will these final two games become? #LFC #LiverpoolFC #FACup #ArneSlot #Anfield #BloodRed Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the bell icon to never miss an episode of the Blood Red podcast.

Aston Villa, fifth in the league, didn't manage a single 0.00 of xG against us in the entire first half. Zero. A Licensed Coach JJ joins me to break down exactly how this Spurs team strangled Aston Villa for 45 minutes at Villa Park, and what Roberto De Zerbi has actually changed in four games. We get into the press, why the team has been so deliberately slowed down, why Pedro Porro is staying rooted as a full-back for now, why Bentancur and Palhinha suddenly look like a working double pivot when they didn't under Frank, and the bit JJ wanted to jump up and down screaming "I told you so" about. Plus the press-baiting concept properly explained — what it is, why it's hard to do at home, and why Villa were patient enough not to take the bait. PPDA, xGA, the metrics that matter and the ones that don't. The Buendía corner that Van de Ven won't enjoy watching back. And why the set-piece defending is a slower fix than the rest. For the Oso 33 crew sticking to the end — JJ on a question we got asked: why do so many number 10s become great number 6s? JJ takes us through it from his own playing days. It's a lovely bit. A Coach's View is the tactical strand from Oh So Spurs — Jim Goddard with A Licensed Coach JJ, dissecting what's actually happening on the pitch with Tottenham Hotspur week to week. Smarter than the angry-pundit register, but still fans, with the suffering and cautious belief that comes with it.

The Fire's rematch against Cincinnati had everything you could ask for — goals, penalties, red cards and shots galore — as long as you didn't ask for a win for the Fire. John and Tim hash out what went wrong and call out a couple young players for especially rough performances before asking how long it'd be before Berhalter remembered that he make substitutes. They also find a minute between shameless plugs for the "5 Things We Learned" piece they cowrote to praise Hugo Cuypers for his performances in a season where he's now got a share of the Golden Boot lead, all while Tim tries to make "xG farming" a thing.
Villa Park. Fifth in the league. But they had zero xG in the first half. Zero. And we were two goals up. It was, it was special. A full-house Originals panel back together for this one — Johnny over in beautiful Dublin, Si in Switzerland, our ray of sunshine Stu in Dubai, and DJ in sunny California — for a proper reaction to Aston Villa 1–2 Spurs at Villa Park and the four games of De Zerbi so far. We've had this conversation every three months, haven't we? But is this one different? Please tell us it's different. So we get into the data (xG against nearly halved, pressing up vs both Frank and Tudor, the back four launching the build-up), the lads who look like completely different players under De Zerbi (Gallagher, Van de Ven, Palhinha, Bentancur, Kinsky), and even Stu's allowing himself to get a little bit excited for once. Plus your questions — the Roberto-wan-Kenobi one (do we give the club credit for landing him?), whether we've got any transfer window pull despite no Europe, who stays if we stay up, the Maddison-vs-Leeds debate, and frankly the best listener question of the lot: is this De Zerbi run actually the best pre-pre-season a new manager could ask for? If you've been through this season with us, please follow the show, drop us a rating, and share it with a fellow Spurs fan who's starting to believe again.

This episode of the Huddle Breakdown dives deep into Celtic's comfortable victory over Falkirk. The hosts analyze Daizen Maeda's "world-class" performance, supported by record-breaking packing recovery data, while cautioning against the team's low XG (expected goals) and tendency to "hibernate" after taking a lead. Transitioning to squad planning, the discussion critiques the club's recent contract extensions for players like James Forrest and Liam Scales, questioning the lack of a modern recruitment pathway for an aging squad. Finally, the show wraps with a look at the Scottish Premiership title race, highlighting how variance and "voodoo" luck continue to impact rivals Rangers and Hearts as the season reaches its chaotic conclusion.Want to support the channel? - https://huddlebreakdown.comLike this video and want more content like it?

Looked really convincing against Brentford for about 10 minutes. ‘Scouse buster' read one of their new flags.Arsenal and Spurs - they both play quite shit football don't they?Reporting on referee watch - no one seems to have called out the selectivity and bias..Arteta gets to complain about 2 red cards in a week and funnily doesn't mention the Gabriel headbuttMoyes goes on about 2 penalties in a week (including the Garner crumple in the Derby) and somehow misses another Pickford assault on an opposition playerWe will be back before the United game, yes later this week - with a preview of that one.

Matt, Manu and Stefan are back to break down the latest Bundesliga weekend. The lads kick off with RB Leipzig's comfortable win over Union Berlin, asking whether Union's relaxed attitude in the mixed zone should be setting off alarm bells and whether the players staged a boycott of their own. Leipzig, meanwhile, are firmly on course for a Champions League return.Then it's the "Rhine derby" as Köln hosted Leverkusen. Despite a performance full of fight and an xG that told a very different story, Köln came away empty-handed, with Patrick Schick once again proving to be Leverkusen's lifeline. Stefan draws on his Monday Bulletin analysis and reaches for a Pirates of the Caribbean metaphor to explain why Köln never quite turn up when it matters most.The relegation battle takes centre stage as the boys examine St. Pauli's loss to a resurgent Heidenheim, raising the question: could Frank Schmidt's side pull off a great escape? And with Köln, HSV and others all stumbling along with 31 points, who's actually going to blink first? Manu also calls Schalke's promotion to the Bundesliga. Consider it official.

Another game, another tie, and another suspension. Are we seeing signs of hope though? FCC turns in its best xG performance in a 3-3 draw that had the Orange and Blue once again battling back to take a point.Listen as we discuss the game and performances!@TheKingAdRock73 @NinoOne @sbucks67 @crackityFC @ComeOnYouFCC @fccincinnati @Zuhause513 @MLS #AllForCincy #FCCincy #YAL #WestEndBoys
Villa drew 1-1 at the City Ground. The result was frustrating. The context is encouraging.Villa came away from the City Ground with a point that felt like less than they deserved. An own goal. A Morgan Rogers chance that clipped the bar. A Watkins one-on-one that should have been buried. A McGinn effort that forced a brilliant save. The xG may have said 0.98 to Villa, but the show's assessment is it should have been three or four.This Post-mortem episode of the My Old Man Said podcast show breaks down the three pivotal moments of the game — Rogers' contribution to Forest's equaliser, the recurring clinical edge problem, and the Emi Martinez situation that is becoming harder to ignore after a third warm-up withdrawal of the season.There is also a broader assessment of what the draw means in context. Meanwhile, in the Europa League, Porto's unconvincing performance against Forest in the other quarter-final has shifted the Europa League picture.Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.Become a MOMS Member for ad-free & extra shows - MOMS MembershipJoin the show's listener Facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid | Chris Budd - @BUDD_music / Phillip Shaw - @prsgameThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

Arsenal's response to midweek momentum is examined in full as The NN Pod breaks down a 2–1 defeat to Bournemouth at the Emirates.The episode opens with the pre-match context — injuries, absences, and the mood heading into a key Premier League fixture — before turning to the starting XI and the immediate concerns it raised. From there, the analysis moves into the game itself, where early control issues, build-up struggles, and a lack of attacking cohesion begin to define the performance. The Bournemouth opener is unpacked in detail, alongside a wider look at Arsenal's front line and its ability to retain the ball and sustain pressure. The equaliser, coming via a penalty, briefly shifts the momentum and lifts the stadium, but questions remain around the team's overall structure and attacking balance. Attention then turns to the second half, where a triple substitution and tactical shift become a central talking point. The impact of those changes — both individually and collectively — is assessed, alongside discussions around squad depth, in-game management, and the team's ability to build sustained pressure.As the match unfolds, the conversation broadens to include set-piece execution, individual performances, and the overall atmosphere inside the stadium — not as nerves, but as growing frustration. The decisive Bournemouth goal is analysed from both a structural and individual perspective, before the focus shifts to Arsenal's lack of response in the closing stages. In the final section, the discussion moves beyond the match itself. Tactical identity, coaching decisions, and opposition approach are explored in detail, alongside reflections on recent performances and broader season context. The episode also touches on contract discussions, the team's defensive platform, and the balance between system and personnel.The closing moments assess the current state of the squad — including leadership, recruitment, and attacking output — before looking ahead to what comes next in both the league and Europe.Chapters:(00:00) - Arteta's Non-Negotiables & Intro(00:47) - Match Context: Injuries, Form & Pre-Match Mood(02:12) - Title Race Stakes & Pre-Game Expectations(02:40) - Matchday Journey & Last-Minute Ticket Story(03:52) - Starting XI Reaction & Immediate Concerns(05:06) - Match Stats, xG & Open-Play Problems(05:55) - Poor Start, Control Issues & Havertz Miss(07:35) - Raya Discussion & Build-Up Problems(09:21) - 0–1 | Bournemouth Opener & Early Doom(10:19) - Nervous Stadium?(11:24) - Front Three Comparison & Attacking Limitations(12:45) - 1–1 | Penalty, Gyökeres Equaliser & Stadium Lift(14:08) - Triple Substitution & Tactical Admission(15:55) - Dowman Introduction & Squad Depth Reality(17:11) - Sub Timing Criticism & Momentum Loss(18:18) - Martinelli, Trossard & Failed Sub Impact(20:07) - Set Pieces, Ben White & Wider Issues(21:00) - Atmosphere: Frustration, Not Nerves(22:15) - Zubimendi Discussion & Strange Moment Before the Penalty(23:04) - 1-2 | Bournemouth Winner & Zubimendi Errors(24:24) - No Response After 2–1(25:14) - Arteta, Iraola & Tactical Outplayed Debate(30:03) - Contract Talk & Manager Pressure(32:23) - Defensive Platform, System Strain & Raya Debate(36:42) - Is This Team Good Enough Without Ødegaard?(39:15) - Talent Ceiling, Recruitment & Arsenal's Limits(43:06) - Havertz in Midfield & Fears for the Run-In(45:58) - Rice, Squad Morale & What Comes Next(47:02) - Closing Thoughts
Scott and Adam process a deflating loss to Bournemouth and answer the questions that you provided. If you are a premium subscriber, you can listen to an ad-free version through Substack or you can add to your preferred podcast app through the personal RSS feed. The conversation starts with the lineup. Neither host saw the announcement until moments before kickoff, and both were caught off guard by the absences of Odegaard, Saka, and Timber — none of whom even made the bench. With a midfield built around Rice and Zubimendi and Havertz dropped into a striker-adjacent role, the left side chemistry with Martinelli never clicked, and Arsenal struggled to generate open-play xG as a result. The first Bournemouth goal gets a close look: a defensive lapse in the space behind the right back, Ben White caught too central, and a Saliba clearance that agonizingly found the back of the net anyway. Both-things-can-be-true verdict: an avoidable situation that still required a bounce to go wrong. Despite the loss, Scott and Adam push back on doom narratives. Arsenal led the league in big chances in this match week, and have scored more three-goal games than any other side since December. The vibes around this team, both agree, are genuinely different from the dread-filled early kickoffs of the Emery era. The Q&A covers Havertz's best position when the attack is at full strength, and closes with a summer transfer discussion: what type of forward does Arsenal actually need, and which profile fits the left wing.

In this episode of the Huddle Breakdown Extra Time, Martin Murphy, James, and Alan dive deep into Celtic's mounting injury crisis and selection headaches ahead of a crucial clash with St. Mirren. The panel dissects the right-back dilemma, weighing the pros and cons of Tony Ralston against other makeshift options, while examining the underlying data behind Celtic's struggling forwards. With St. Mirren adopting a surprisingly possession-heavy, compact style under their new manager, the guys explore how Celtic can break them down. Plus, the team reviews the latest xG title race projections for Celtic, Rangers, and Hearts as the season reaches its boiling point.Want to support the channel? - https://huddlebreakdown.comLike this video and want more content like it?

Laura, James, and Alan dissect Celtic's narrow but vital win over Dundee — unpacking a pressing performance that hit levels not seen since the Stuttgart games — before turning to the numbers that tell the uncomfortable truth: Celtic have hit the woodwork 26 times this season, their xG consistently outpacing their actual goals, and the blame lands squarely on a failure to recruit quality in the forward areas. With the post-split fixtures now confirmed, the trio map out the five-game run-in for Celtic, Rangers, and Hearts in what's shaping up to be one of the most unpredictable Scottish Premiership title races in years, debating Rangers' Falkirk banana skin, Hearts' anxious underlying data, and why May 10th at Celtic Park may decide everything — and why Martin O'Neill's experience over the finish line might just be the defining factor.

In this episode of The Huddle Breakdown, Laura, James, and Alan dissect a truly dismal Celtic performance against Dundee United, with James labeling the chaotic match an "Allstar game of sh*t". Alan brings damning statistics to light, revealing this as the worst xG difference Celtic has ever recorded against a Jim Goodwin side and highlighting that the team has now recorded seven away matches with a negative xG difference—more than the last seven seasons combined. The panel debates whether Martin O'Neill's highly volatile "chaos ball" approach has finally caught up to the squad, compares it to the rigid control of the Brendan Rodgers era, and looks at the updated Expected Points table to figure out if Celtic, Rangers, or Hearts will limp over the finish line in a wildly unpredictable SPFL title race.Want to support the channel? - https://huddlebreakdown.comLike this video and want more content like it?

Olympiacos drop points AGAIN… ⚽ 35 shots
Leeds drew 0-0 with Brentford in a frustrating goalless stalemate at Elland Road - a combined xG of just one, 64 shots without scoring, and five consecutive Premier League games without an open play goal. James, Rocco and Darragh break down why Leeds look predictable in the 3-5-2, whether Farke's "draws will do" approach is the right call, and which players need more minutes to unlock defences. Plus, Keith Andrews' Spygate hypocrisy exposed after Brentford's goalkeeper faked an injury for a tactical huddle, Mick Jones honoured at Elland Road, the relegation battle heats up after Spurs were hammered 3-0 by Forest, and why Leeds' remaining fixtures against four of the bottom five could be the key to survival. Also: Calvert-Lewin and Stach's international call-ups, the Christopher Loftus and Kevin Speight tribute, and Darragh's Irish trip to Leeds.
A third consecutive Premier League defeat. Eight league games left. And a set of questions about structure, recruitment and ambition that will not wait until the summer.Villa's 3-1 defeat at Old Trafford was not a shock. It was, as this podcast noted immediately, an expected result, an expected performance... and an expected xG. What makes it significant is the context and manner of it - three consecutive league defeats, a Champions League place that is now being held by inertia rather than form, and a set of structural problems that are becoming harder to attribute to bad luck.In this episode, the show dissects the latest misery inducing trip to Old Trafford, including the moment that may have defined Villa's entire season. Then the post-mortem episodes broadens out into the harder questions about what has gone wrong, whose responsibility it is to fix it, and whether there is still time.The structure versus creation argument reaches crunch time. It's Lille in the Europa League second leg next, but then relegation threatened West Ham and Forest back-to-back mean it's do or die time.UTVListen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.Become a MOMS Member for ad-free & extra shows - MOMS MembershipJoin the show's listener Facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid | Chris Budd - @BUDD_music / Phillip Shaw - @prsgameThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

In this episode of The Huddle Breakdown Extra Time, Martin, James, and Alan review the gritty 2-1 victory over Aberdeen at Pittodrie and look ahead to the massive Scottish Cup Glasgow Derby at Ibrox. The lads dive deep into the tactical data, questioning why the build-up play has devolved into aimlessly "shelling" long balls to forwards who are physically outmatched in aerial duels . Alan highlights the worrying reliance on fullbacks to progress the play amidst a midfield making too many negative passes, while James breaks down the sheer unpredictability of the current SPFL title race using the rolling xG data. We also discuss refereeing inconsistencies, the Tommy Gemmell statue unveiling, and why winning the Scottish Cup might be the most crucial safety net for European qualification.Want to support the channel? - https://huddlebreakdown.comLike this video and want more content like it?

This is not about one result. It is about direction.Aston Villa remain in a strong league position, but the performances beneath it are raising legitimate questions. The defensive numbers are impressive. Only five goals conceded in 2026. Structure is there. Organisation is there.Fluency is not.Across recent weeks, Villa's open-play chance creation has dipped sharply. The xG numbers now align with what the eye test has been saying for some time. Games at Villa Park have become tight, tense, and dependent on moments rather than patterns.There is also context. The midfield spine has been disrupted. Kamara, Tielemans and McGinn missing together strips out control and tempo. Yet Unai Emery has left Pau Torres benched, a player whose progressive passing underpinned last season's best performances.But every contender has injuries.This episode asks the harder question: is this a temporary grind phase, or are we watching a team slowly stalling?The Wolves fixture looms large. Win it, and momentum returns. Lose it, and doubt spreads quickly into the Champions League race and beyond.This is the stage of the season where narratives harden.Momentum or meltdown? The next few weeks will tell us everything.UTVGet a Great NordVPN DealGet a cracking deal on NordVPN with four months FREE & a 30 days money-back guarantee here: nordvpn.com/momsGET AD-FREE SHOWS and JOIN MATCH CLUBGet ad-free shows and extra shows, and join My Old Man Said's 24/7 Villa community, Match Club.For more details and to become a member, click here: Become a MOMS MemberJoin the show's listener facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid Chris Budd - @BUDD_musicPhillip Shaw - @prsgameMy Old Man Said - https://www.myoldmansaid.comThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

Domination Derby: Arsenal Destroy Spurs 4-1 Away from Home as Eze Delivers, Raya Recovers and the Premier League Lead Returns to Five PointsArsenal respond in the only way that matters.After pressure built following Manchester City's win, the North London Derby became more than just another fixture — it became a test of control, intent and composure. And from the opening minutes, Arsenal delivered one of the most dominant performances ever seen at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.We break down the starting XI decisions, the absence of key names, and the early intensity that set the tone. The discussion then moves into the opening goal — Saka's persistence, Eze's sharp finish — and the familiar frustration of conceding immediately after taking the lead.There's an honest assessment of Declan Rice's error, David Raya's positioning, and whether Arsenal are gifting opponents moments rather than being broken down. But this episode isn't about collapse — it's about response.We analyse Raya's in-game recovery, Gyökeres' growing confidence in front of goal, and the structural adjustments that kept Arsenal on the front foot instead of retreating into caution. Timber's contribution, Mosquera's composure, and the subtle tactical shifts in midfield all come under the microscope.Eze's performance is given full attention — his decision-making, positioning, and the wider question of how Arteta has finally unlocked his best role. We also examine the ongoing Trossard debate and what Odegaard's return could mean ahead of Chelsea.The numbers tell their own story: territorial dominance, touches in the box, xG control. But the episode goes deeper than the stats — into mentality, game management, and the standards required in a title race.Part Two features the Matchweek 27 whip-around, where we assess Manchester City's narrow win, Liverpool's controversial late goal, Chelsea's dropped points, and the developing relegation battle. VARse returns with discussion on Forest, City, Palace and the automated offside debate.Arsenal restored the five-point lead.Now the question is whether they can sustain this level of control.Chelsea up next.Chapters:(00:00) - Arteta's Non-Negotiables Intro(00:51) - Line-Up Reaction & “Not North London” Display Debate(03:48) - Early Intent & Fast Start(08:18) - 0-1 | Eze Finishes After Saka's Work(10:46) - 1-1 | Rice Error & Raya Questioned(13:16) - The Longest Half-Time Ever(15:46) - Raya's Save & Regaining Composure(16:47) - 1-2 | Gyökeres Strikes With Authority(18:13) - Disallowed Spurs Goal & Gabriel Controversy(21:22) - 1-3 | Eze at the Double(22:20) - Raya Big Save & Redemption Moment?(24:01) - Saka Injury Concern(24:58) - 1-4 | Gyökeres Seals It Late(28:03) - Match Stats & Dominance Breakdown(31:52) - Trossard Debate & Tactical Adjustments(37:29) - Raya Form Discussion(45:42) - Eze Role Analysis & Arteta Comments(52:34) - PT.2 Whip Around the Grounds (MW27)(59:30) - VARse: Forest, City & Palace Decisions(01:10:56) - MW27 Title Race, UCL Qualification & Relegation Battle(01:18:55) - Closing Thoughts
Wer hat's gesagt? Na? Bodø/Glimt (nur echt mit Sonderzeichen und norwegischer Keilschrift) gegen Internazionale Milano war die Überraschung des Champions-League-Play-off-Spieltags – und wegen uns habt ihr hoffentlich eingeschaltet. Falls nicht, sezieren euch die Herren das Ganze natürlich bis zum letzten synthetischen Grashalm und verraten allen Interessierten auch kurz, warum die Norweger in den sogenannten Post-Shot-xG so viel besser dastehen als die Ragazzi von Inter. Weil Felix sich spontan in Daten und Analyse-Tools verliebt hat, legt er gleich noch einen drauf und guckt mal eben nach, ob die Zahlen uns mehr über die aktuelle Stärke der TSG aus Hoffenheim verraten – von wem? Richtig, die mit Andrej Kramarić und den leeren Rängen. Und während Felix so über xG, überspielte Gegner und Pressing sinniert, verarbeitet Toni noch schnell seine neueste Friseur – NEIN – Barber-Begegnung mit der Gruppe und verrät, dass er mit Leon jetzt ein neues Vater-Sohn-Hobby hat: Seiten auf 0. Ach, und am Ende revolutionieren die beiden noch kurz, auf Bitte von Hörer Andreas, den Fußball. Wohl bekomm's! Du möchtest mehr über unsere Werbepartner erfahren?

Is it once again Arsenal's to lose? On the latest edition of Caught Offside, Andrew and JJ wonder if Manchester City and Aston Villa have swung the title race fully back in Arsenal's favor. Why does Pep have such a hard time with Spurs? Did Dominic Solanke just win a Puskas? And have Villa's xG overperformances finally caught up with them? Then, we dive into Manchester United's dramatic win against Fulham and Casemiro's importance to the team - does his upcoming exit make the mission clear for United in the summer transfer window? And how about Chelsea coming from 2 down to beat West Ham? While Rosenior gets the praise, JJ suggests that it was actually Nuno's errors that allowed it to happen.For even more Caught Offside content, get on over to Caught Offside Plus right now!
