Foden is so good we all forget he's called Phil. Shows the class of the man to not let such an unfortunate thing hold him back

Goldbridge with the latest "I can't do this anymore" on livestream after the Chelsea winner. Iconic

MacAllister is so good, why does he never get a call up to the scotland team????

Tonight I was at a small pub (known for playing pool) in Sydney. It is a shit hole but quiet enough to watch some rugby league with some mates on a Friday night. Buzzing after the Chelsea win this morning, I was in a mood to mingle and started chatting with an old fella from west London, a diehard QPR supporter. I asked him if he knew JLA, and he didn't. But he said he will give you a try.

You know you’ve got a few years of slugging behind you when you feel like you’ve heard Flav explain what the Doldrums are before

flav is so damn good, man knows how to give and take the banter well

So funny how people bring up how Arsenal played against Man City but they had nothing to say about Liverpool who had 1 shot on target against Arsenal and lost 3-1.

40:56 This is the Spursiest thing Flav has ever said in his life and I’m here for it. Truly a sensational take.

Lovely jubbly. Love a bit of JAFFN on work breaks. Feet up with a tea...😊

Macca 1000% deserves to be in the conversation. Started the season playing as a 6 which isn’t his preferred position and if you look at the advance metrics he was ranked right near the top. Then as Endo grew into the team and Macca was moved to his preferred number 8 he has been insanely good. Some of the goals and assists he has this season are insane…. And that’s only a small fraction of what he does well. Controls the midfield very well, reads the game at a very high level. Works very hard. Never seems to be down or negative. What a player and for his price tag? One of the best bargains in history.

Bc of James and his happy lil face I've had QPR notifications on for the past month. Love to see his smile!

Mac Allister has been fantastic, but VVD has been Liverpool's POTY. Mad that Salah

The Reading FC situation needs more publicity. People think a lot of the stuff at their clubs are bad...

You two are icons man joy to watch just pure lads happy to talk about football with a bit of bants. Top for uploads aswell i watch football content everyday and when most channels have ran out of juice youve always uploaded. Please upload more euro content excited for this one❤ Havent finished the full vid yet but my shout for most in form this year in terms of previous years the gap from then to now is foden. Always been quality but hes really stepped up. Ps Flav needs his own channel too id watch both.

I never usually agree with Flav but he's spot on about what football is about. It's not about winning titles, it's about every up and down of the journey. Well said.

The style of play thing as a West Ham fan is so interesting because two seasons ago, we had barely any possession but some of it was the best football I’ve seen since 15/16 at the club. We scored tons of goals and created so many chances, possession does result in wins but it’s not everything.

not having mcallister in there is a crime, he’s been incredible for us this year

Salah: highest ga in the league, most big chances created in europe's top 5 leagues. Forever disrespected.

Love hearing these guys chat football

Flav speaking the truth. Everyone's second favorite team is QPR just because we all want Jim to be happy lol

The Forest fan on the overlap made a good point that they only broke the rules because they sold Johnson a few weeks later than a deadline because they knew they would get more money from Spurs than Brentford. Surely holding out a few extra weeks for more money is better financially for their club. FFP is a load of bollocks.

I think when looking at scoring and penalty statistics in particular, we need to have figures that factor in the amount of incidents when the penalty that the player scores comes from a foul on that same player in a promising goalscoring position. Or when a handball stops a certain goal from the player that then takes the penalty.

Flav talking about unbridled euphoria with moments in football that are successful got a standing ovation from me (I was listening while on a road trip)

Friday uploads are back 🔥🔥

If Liverpool win the league its MacAllister, if City win its Foden, if Arsenal win it is Rice

Flav’s knee 😂 I love it

Why is it when Arsenal play defensive football we get all of this outrage, yet virtually every other team plays this way against Arsenal?

Salah has 25 goal contributions in 21 starts 🫣

Low key I think Mac Allister should be in this conversation. He's just consistently been there running our midfield from both 6 and 8.

I love how excited James starts getting when flav mentions QPR 😂

It must hurt Flav that the only reason people know who Tottenham are is because they are Arsenal’s rivals

Flav got a bit wound up towards the end there and I'm here for it. Love the pod gents ;P

Absolutely loved Jim’s impression of that sad mackem

As a Liverpool fan, I absolutely love watching Foden. The lad has the grace of a Gazelle and when playing with a freedom he is a beautiful watch. But, my god, I wish there was an Asian porno style filter that blurs out his silly little haircut. Keep it up lads.

I think part of the entertaining football becoming more important is a reaction to Pep. He’s changed football, he’s made it cleverer, more intricate, more effective, probably “better” … but probably less entertaining. With how influential he is and how many managers learn from him, more games are becoming clever chess matches - but most fans would prefer to watch reckless boxing matches

Was not expecting the stray for being left-handed/footed in penalty chat ffs

NEW JAFFN YEAAAAAAAAASS

As a Liverpool fan I’d go VVD or MacAllister, but it’s very hard not to acknowledge just how good Foden has been

I absolutely LOVE jaffn, tune in every week. But the background hurts my eyes. Any chance we could change that for me? Cheers.

It really is just the classic where the 20% of the Leicester crowd that are old men that get rattled by us playing it out of the back. I will say though... Are fans in stadiums skewing older these days? Probably because they're the only ones that can afford tickets at this point I don't think any Leicester fan has been hating on vardy though, he's a god over here

1:06:13 when i was a kid, our whole team had to tuck their shirts in - coaches rule was “you cant dress like glenn hoddle, until you play like glenn hoddle” 🙄

Jim winding up flav was class😂😂😂😂 B side got him

Mac Allister is signing of the season, maybe even player of the season so far, he is absolutely outrageous.

Id say Arsenal winning by 5+ goals multiple times this season is pretty entertaining for the fans

Not having Mac Allister is criminal

Flav used to irritate me so much but I can’t help but like him now. Such a funny guy

There was once a spurs fan called flav Who hated football that is drab He'd rather they lose And get full of the booze Then pass out going home in the cab

January the 6th Van Djik was 80/1 to win the PFA player of the season. £10 on, fingers crossed he lifts the trophy

james casualy in incognito mode going on stathub

lads i’ve commented many times on this weeks episode but i’m dying for some old content back. we need flames advice back and a update on the big dog where’s he at is he alive? love u boys the wonder boys of football youtube

Can't stand in game win percentages. Don't care about predicted league positions. Let emotions decide who is likely to win. Don't spoil a comeback with a stat that says we are already 30% likely to draw and 20% likely to win. Just feels pointless to spoil the anticipation and fun. The VAR of the stats world. Sucks emotion out of a moment.

Not one to come to United’s aid but xG and xGA and therefor npxGD doesn’t take into account two extremely important factors, finishing ability and goalkeeper ability. This could also be luck, we’d have to look at every chance to decide that. A team having 0.2 xG in a game and being clinical so taking that one chance vs a team generating 2 xG but missing great chances doesn’t necessitate luck. Being clinical is important. Sure you want to create more and be more dominant but having clinical finishers is great too. At the other end, you can concede high xGA and your keeper can keep making great saves. This could also be luck as opposition strikers miss sitters. Sure you want to defend better as a team but it’s good that your keeper is saving them. Can’t just disregard those two immensely important factors to put it down to luck

Football chat has officially taken over the podcast

FOR THE GREATER GOOD!

Jimbo You doing a squad for the season one from every club? Think it was a good format you did last season.

So agree with the Gyökeres take! Love Isak but Gyök could seriously put in record numbers for us next season n take our offence to the next level

Flav asking the questions we're all thinking about xG "WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?"

The answer is Ipswich, succeeding expectation, playing lovely football and getting results

as a forest fan i do think the championship was more enjoyable as a football fan, but the success and money that the epl brings to the whole city is evident! its a very difficult situation to be in for any fan of the bottom 8 or so epl teams. especially one who pays hard earned money to go to the game (provided they can get a ticket). personally I wouldn't be too bothered if we got relegated.

The two players that should win it is: Rodri or VVD. Others have been good but these two are the best in their positions and can be argued that they are the PL best of all time. If Salah and Allison didn't get injured and/or missed a lot of games, they could be in question for it.

I'm with Flav here, every gameweek I look for the QPR score, I'm all swept up in the Marty Party

Keep talking about Arsenal Flav. I love it x

19 and 1/2 pieces of confetti

Flav not understanding npxgd is a great laugh

I too have made QPR my championship team because of JLA lol.

I got to about half of West Ham games and it ain't that bad. Plenty of good games.

Harry Kane looks around the foggy dream plane. Out of the mist appears the football gods. Pele, Cruyff, Beckenbauer and an old Chinese dude who Harry doesn't recognise. Cruyff notices the blank side-eye that Kane is giving him and says, "He's the guy who invented football in 11th Century China." "Oh right" says Harry giving the dude a nod.

Is expected points not better than Xg difference? If you get 5xg or 2xg in one game and win you can still only get 3 points

The thing about chelsea is, if their finishing was better they'd be compared to spurs right now. They're actually pretty fun to watch they just can't put the ball past the keeper.

Did flav get kicked from the Overlap after last time?

I think Frank Lampard has the record for longest undefeated run. He definitely has the longest undefeated home run because he played in all of Chelseas 86 undefeated home games

How many goals does Watkins have to score from now until the end of the season to start ahead of kane at the euros? 30?

Stats say Chelsea should be around 4th, First half stats say they should be around 4th, Second half stats suggest 15th so why is there such a disconnect brtween two halves

where's this video about flav destroying arsenal? need to give it a listen

James calling spurs the b side had me crying 😂😂

Flav myopia disorder is a fascinating watch; genuine interesting pathology 😂

For years I listened to people say "it's about winning, it's about results, not entertainment, specialist in failure". For years Arsenal have been criticised for being soft, for not being able to play different ways, for failing to be pragmatic. We have the most goals in the league. But one game with this approach and everyone is now flipping to the opposite sentiment. Lol

Left footed players converted 85% of penalties since 2019/20 compared to 79% for right footed players.

After watching Garnacho celebrate last night, I’ve had enough of players celebrating for the camera. What’s happening to celebrations... just go mental!

as a left handed person i completely agree i am so cack handed

5 Arsenal players 🫨 1 Liverpool player. Jim you’re killing me 😂

What video is he referencing at 13:39 ?

I’ve heard flav explain the doldrums to James multiples times over the years

Lets be honest. Whoever wins the league its going to be a player from that team

As a Stevenage fan, I can whole heartedly say I don't care how we play as long as we are competitive.

🤣This video sure did tickle my funny bone Jimbo !😂🦴 I absolutely NEED to show this to my book club!😅📚

I think from a purely 'love of the game' perspective I get why fans are annoyed at Levy over the years but from a pure look at growth and financial power he's done fantastic, I think they're in a really good position now to really become a big club with the right investors.

As I live and breathe. I had to pick a team because I live in San Diego and we don't have a pro team. Do you find it weird that people outside of Europe pick a club to follow?

Foden was very playable by James' favourite Joemez.

the thing with flav's rivals answer is who would that new rival be? brighton? lmfao

Flav is right about the glory. If you measure it by cups and stuff isn't it. Not sure how many beers I've broken and joy I have this season just celebrating pure moments. This banter Era just makes football miserable sometimes.

When you're talking about entertaining football, that shouldn't just be about possession and shots. I'm an Arsenal fan and I derive a lot of enjoyment from seeing Gabriel and Saliba. Passion and physicality and last minute tackles and all that can absolutely be enjoyable. Flav's perspective sounds like he only enjoys watching half of his team.

Why so much football chat lately. Where is the noshing?

I see spurs getting fati, Brighton said today they won’t be re signing him on loan

irish cafu scored a worldie

Flav keeps saying Saka let his country down, but seems to forget Kane missed the penalty against France - letting his country down..

Love you both but you've completely missed the point about the Forest situation every single time you've discussed it

Far too much reliance on stats in the POTS chat. It's got to be their impact on their team with their team's impact that season. Palmer? Amazing player, Chelsea 12th. Barkley possibly keeping Luton up? Far more deserving.

😂remember last week when flav said “could spurs go on a charge” 😂😂

As a lifelong football-shirt-tucker-inner, I am offended. And I’m left handed ffs
