okay what's going on guys welcome to a brand new episode of energized ross i have to wear the jersey what did you make of brown's first two games before we get into this season's premier league show uh i was actually really disappointed with ireland in both games uh i thought squad selection was poor and i thought the team selection was poor um both such choices i was actually really excited for stephen king to take over i was trying to see what sort of brand the football you would play but i thought like they were simple on missions from the squad like uh obafemi and smallbone who both played majority southampton's game since the restart and only manchester united had less losses than southampton since the restart like something were one of the hottest teams since three star both left out of the senior squad and then in terms of team section like picking robbie brady and jeff hendrick those guys haven't kicked the ball since march uh other like calamo deoda scored one goal in the championship in 32 games played 18 tons for ireland never scored uh adamita scored a hat trick against preston and then played 19 other games without scoring a goal for nourish and he was starting when you have the two saddam boys there who both scored more colin robinson scored a goal for sheffield annoyed went on loan to west brom then scored three goals in the championship didn't get the nod i can't uh give it away pick aaron connolly because i think he's going to be our best player in about five years time degree by a long shot uh i just thought it was very very strange um i've never seen jason mullenby pay before uh i well i think i saw him playing the against armenian under 21s game but like that was the first time i was like right this is a competitive game in my eyes um that was like seems like brand the one thing that we were like confident in was better and they were shy to be honest i was disappointed that stephen kenny used this time to experiment when he actually should have been trying to find his best 11 to go out there and beat slovakia so uh obviously people know that we drew and then lost and what would you do different now in the build to the euro qualifiers because the next game is the big one like um it's a world cup final but for me for me it's actually quite difficult now because what was let's start the back well i played the exact same probably back four i might i might i might actually put matari on the bench and start training coleman i just think if you want to be as solid as you can defensively like book home and then over matt dart um would agree with that now at the beginning i wouldn't know but now yes so the same back four yeah came back forward by putting coleman in for darty right getting into the field uh yeah well i'm just going to stick with the formation here though because i assume he's got gonna assume he's not gonna do a new formation for the next game uh you know i would go james mccarthy just because like he has been a defensive blanket in the past i'm like i feel like i need to make sure they don't concede in this game they need to make sure it's a real cup football game uh i definitely play hoover and he played a lot for us for the last year and he duels like the top nil shot and he's actually not bad on a dead ball either so he definitely start the other midfield option i'm not 100 sure who i want i think it will be probably jeff hendrick just because i think obviously newcastle after sawing them if he can get a bit of game time there uh he's another fella who my score goal he's only scored two goals in 50 games now but uh he might score a goal and then front three i think aaron county is cemented on the left-hand side and as much as like people are really riding behind uh david goldrick these days and thinking like he's the main man and the way he's utilized that chest has annoyed us uh he does a very good job for them i go shane long and uh overfemur front they play together for southampton like they will know each other's link of play why don't we actually just play on that and try and get the ball back now chain longer scored 17 points for ireland like if you add up the rest of the squad and put them together that one will equal shane long's gold for me has to start yep um would i change anything in that i think i'd go for that is there anyone else that could play on the right in terms of swords like i'd have no doubt as a person robinson probably i don't i only do this bob but if he's not going to start for bernie because he's not going to be he's not going to have that like match readiness if that makes sense yeah another thing with brady is the dead balls or the balls he can deliver can also be delivered by a left-footed player in hoover him as well it's sort of a like for like and also great people don't really know what position brady is as well yeah is your left back is your left winger now he's apparently he's number 10. like what's he actually supposed to play i think colin robinson is like a gold player to bring off the bench i think mcgoldrick could be a good player to bring off the bench if it's not going our way um and then maybe a robbie brady's good player to bring off the bench james mclean's a good player to bring off bench up they'd be the four swords i'd be looking at yeah like i wouldn't have either near the slovakia game i wouldn't have audeoda near the slovakia game oh all the other i'll agree because like before the show you're like you better agree with me uh i'll agree with your certain loan up um i'm not too sure about the overfemi situation but i think that that position will be given to whoever is the hottest player again and then yeah yeah comparisons there's there's the midfield and i'd say the right wing they have the month of club football to like shoot now to get that position that's the way i look at it and who do you fancy for right now i know you obviously said i'll be feminine but no i actually think he'll be more trained long i'll probably go out right if i was sort of guessing because i feel like he's been more versatile but i think kevin robinson has a great chance to get that right win position especially considering he's now on a permanent deal at west brom yeah he's going to say yeah he just signed a five year contract so let's see what happens i know obviously none of the players are much fit but uh at least none of the players pulled the mason card i don't really like that knowing the players are mass fit they only had like two weeks off of the holiday break and a lot of the players were playing during post lockdown so i actually don't wholeheartedly agree they're not much fit like if you take two weeks off you shouldn't be absolutely daffy ducks like those players should be fit i'm ready to go let's be honest like you i mean let's let's not call the space bait and the bulgarian players and the finland players we don't go oh they weren't fish they were they not like they'd already starting back to the league supposedly uh finland have only four players who play in the finish league who start and they're the rest of them all playing like germany and elsewhere so like you know i mean like to me that's just an excuse although they're ranked 20 odd point place blows in the world rankings in other world ranking terms exactly you know absolutely gods and that's like that's that but i'll know much better put this way barry how many players did you know in the bulgarian team oh and how many players do you know bar pookie on the finland team the hold on a bar going to school with danielle shopkins uh but yeah exactly see what i mean like there were team of nobodies and yeah but look look this is like look like both games are terrible to watch they're all shy games and everyone [ __ ] knows it right well if we can't just at least save ourselves they weren't as fitted as they could be that's the only thing we can take from them games because by that there's nothing to take from me and uh i think stephen kenny like i think it's the right man right now and in the right situation to take that job because they can't get any other managers better to to give them more money like stephen kenny obviously took the lowest amount of money to take this job just so he could build up his own uh name in the game of football so like the only thing i wouldn't tell you exactly he's the right man for the job because obviously mccarthy was probably the right man for the job he should have been least able to finish out his euros i think apparently had to go because of money situations as well well oh yeah that's that's a different that's a different thing though yeah but that's the financial decision yeah but that's what i mean all in all stephen kenny it was like right he's the cheapest for right now yeah but you're not getting anyone else in receiving any money exactly yeah but it's like spoiled financial turmoil stephen king's right man for the job yeah that was whatever sense that makes and that was that was it because we're not getting any fans into that stadium as well in the united states but we're we'll be away for both games so uh that doesn't really that won't really matter to us because they they won't have the 12th man on the side but uh the only thing i can take is that from that is we're not fit enough right so when that big game comes around everyone hopefully is fit enough and if they lose then there's no excuses like we have to give them this one pass because you have three days to train with them pick different players in different positions and a lot of them players are not informed anyway so uh it was very very disappointing to see what i am so you're saying they're not fit enough i'm saying it's just bad team selection um bad squad selection yeah so who did you put that on stephen kenny well yeah like i think it is his fault like i think everyone's so quick to defend him because he's this like league of ireland hero and he's like he's one of ours and you know he's from the grassroots but like just because you're inexperienced and everyone's rooting for you and i'm rooting for them i want to do well i'm not going to sit here and just like ignorantly say oh you did great i think it's easily great no but like people online are saying you did trip great and like who said you would do great wherever they are like yeah well i know yeah people are like give him a chance you know i mean like he's trying to give him a chance i agree yeah but they're saying like he's trying to change 30 years of bad football he's going to play his grade football like i'm not slowly convinced that he's going to play this unbelievable football and now they're going to be the most must-see team on the international stage i don't know man but like um let's see what happens people call yeah people call them friendlies [ __ ] friendlies but you know i mean tell that to cristiano ronaldo what's called when he won league nations yeah and he's yeah actually the sherlock ronaldo has gone over 100 league cups i mean it's very uh hundred gold gold 20 goals for portugal but ross this is a premier league show and we will be back discussing ireland's common european qualifier the date for that is on the 8th of october away to slovakia what day is out of the week what what day the week is that i'll tell you now i'll be faster it's a thursday thirsty thursdays thirsty thursdays and then if they win if they win and score um they'll play the winner of northern ireland and bosnia on the 12th of november i think that's uh another month away that's like almost an outrageously long time away that is another month after that i know that's crazy well that's what it says here but uh ross this is a pr if you are new to the show by the way make sure to like make sure to subscribe we're here every week and let us know what you think for us the premier league is back this weekend uh we haven't even had time off it seems like for the irish players getting my own faith we haven't had much time off there you have it you i mean you just caught yourself up saying that the wrong thing you caught yourself yeah i know you're like i haven't had much time off i was like all the way earlier i said they did have loads of toys no they had loads of time off that's my point that's what you look like a joke in this show now i'll let you on this occasion lecture on this occasion but yeah the premier league is back is back rapidly uh liverpool's premier league celebrations will probably carry on for the rest of season we'll have to listen to those liverpool fans tell us that they're the champions forever they're still saying they're the champions league champions even though born munich were not there uh a couple weeks ago very different yeah uh yeah ross before we get into everything what we will be going over is that we're going to talk about top 6 the relegation top goal scorer player of the year uh surprise package whether it be a player or a team or something that can happen or and then uh ireland's player of the year as well ross you're dominating and that could that can that call it includes steven yeah kenny let you include stephen kenny if you want good stuff for that raspberry stop at the very very top top six who's going to win the premier league this year you know what i actually think it's a lot harder than i was thought it was going to be i think the safest bet is to say liverpool are going to win the league and despite them no investment really i'm not going to include that left back as investment uh for the new season no one's coming for them uh they seem to be in financial turmoil really for someone who won the champions league uh the year before in the premier league this year i mean they don't know who is that i don't really understand that i know with the manchester united situation apparently they were going to give out share uh their bonds for their shareholders in august and obviously if they signed someone that would affected the books so they gave out their shares in august so the blazers got a lot of money in august and in september they were like right now we can buy people because it's like new year new financial year dana white loves doing that yeah so i don't know whether that was the same story with liverpool and we're going to see songs but you know we're 9 days in september now and i've seen no signings uh apparently 30 odd million is too much to buy for thiago alcantara uh i've seen people be like you know man you know and manchester been like oh should we volume would you fit in to me like him and kevin de bruyne are the two best sentiment fields in the world like you buy him and you find a place for him in the team he is that good uh he would definitely start the liverpool team it could be a young fabinho himself henderson whoever whatever way you want to chew horn in there uh griezmann was linked with liverpool today for like 100 million but like if they can't afford him they it sounds like they missed out on timor verner and and he went to chelsea they were strong 50 million it seems like they're not going to spend any more than 30 million this season yeah well first of all like i don't know why they're being so scabby i know you brought up that there but when you win the league in the champions league there has to be some sort of money and the year before that getting into champs in final and the year before that getting europa league the new big final with nike as well they changed their shirt sponsors yeah i only have no idea where their money's going the new jersey's nice as well yeah i actually saw in the shop and i actually think i preferred their last season's jersey i actually i liked the mind you know jersey i've never seen it in person which one the red one not the zebra one no no no but uh the thing is about liverpool's midfield right uh well like we've gone through ourselves one united back in 99 after they won the treble they didn't change anything and then that just that's just causes a disaster but um the way liverpool stream it feels the way all three of them are constantly on the go on the go closing down chasing down holding down if you took one of them players out supposedly when the others leave the barcelona let's see what happens i say that might actually happen just because there's uh dutch toys with coleman that could be a great move but uh thiago isn't really a hunter-gatherer he'd be more of a a dictator so maybe if you play taking someone out that would do all the dog work and then putting in someone that isn't really going to do that might hinder what they already sort of have like i think klopp's going to be really really picky with what he has but you're getting such a world-class player in like yeah well we watched him versus germany and one of spain vs germany he was fairly box box he was making some really good tackles in the game and he was probably the best player on the pitch so i don't know i just think he'd 100 improve liverpool and he could definitely adapt to that system you can't be that good of a player and not adapt yeah well look he like he's obviously trying to get the move to get the big money now so like you know players like they they tend to perform very at a very very high level when contracts like negotiate negotiations like let's get like call a spade a spade as you know they they need to invest in talent they gotta take in the field like if they even want to send it back you'd go for that as well but they definitely need an attacker in the front tree but like thiago would be an amazing signing for them board there's something wrong if he hasn't already gone yet yeah i do think so i still think liverpool are the team to beat that starting eleven is absolutely phenomenal and they have probably the best wing backs in world football the best center half in world football and they have two of the best attackers the premier league has seen in a long time in mana and salah so or do you think they are still the team to beat do you think they could win uh the treble or the double this year double as in premier league champions league no i i don't think they'll win both i think the problem is with their smaller squad they will struggle to win both tournaments that's hence why they only won the champs league and then didn't win the league and then they won the league and couldn't win the champions league but we said last year well we definitely discussed it on it last year when we were looking into last season's show little we know covert was going to happen but um we were thinking that liverpool are going to eventually get an injury that would uh definitely hinder them and that didn't happen again this like which is crazy but this year you can't keep getting away with with no injuries every year and having such a small squad that just cannot happen this year like like i'd make a i'll make a bet with you another kind of monster so basically you're already only six so if you win you only owe me five there's no way they're all getting away with not getting injured this year they are definitely bound to get some form of injury whether it be you know i suppose allison did get injured last year and adrian had to step in for a while they did get an injury i think we just expected more of an outfielder to get an injury yeah uh but look they're the team to beat um in second place i sort of think man city are going to finish second so uh we'll sort of get into there um do you by the way do you think liverpool are going in the league again yeah yeah unless man city got messy or maybe tiago and liverpool didn't saw anyone then i could see it sort of different but like as things stand today wednesday the ninth oh you can looking at the squads i think liverpool are definitely definitely the favorites yeah for me less than 100 points though less than 100 points as you said wednesday the 9th september i do think that manchester city haven't addressed their biggest problem which hindered them in the league last year was centre-back uh american report got injured at one stage last year and they were an absolute disaster but stone's not amendy aren't up to scratch not to win a premier league uh eric garcia looks like a gold young talent but this year isn't going to be the year to blow the 19 year old into starting every week for the league they've just got nathan yeah i was about to get to him nate tanaki no you weren't i was because i i i was going to get to where they should have gone uh nae tanaki 40 million from relegated bournemouth he's only five foot eleven for some reason like when the center half is nowhere well over six foot it makes me sort of question them uh but i'm waiting for man city to be like right here's cool to bali here's our absolute destroyer at center half and they haven't they haven't got that in so oh well yes and until they do i don't see them win the league i don't think your boy nate tanaki and that makes primary league winners all right so the alcohol walker right back and concealer and concealer who can who's also played left back for the unconvincingly dev report okay wacky fernandinho is still there i know that isn't dead they have other mending sounds on many stones as well and then did this on the left back no or is it oh that's in chance oh mandy so oh i'm andy okay and okay and then i think they have your mana uh the shade head guy and angelo oh yeah hit from back from leipzig yeah he's actually really good if they can get him to stay their left back's actually sorted he's definitely the best of the three well if cool value comes in you see the thing is they're still going to be able to score goals you know i mean uh kevin de bruyne just won pfa player of the year what what a player like jesus that like does to watch him play football is unbelievable it's just beautiful then like um what are they going to do with their midfield and attack ross because obviously we know they have defensive frailties i think lots of teams have defensive friendlies no one's perfect liverpool are basically the best but uh what are they going to do with that gonna ross and attack because aguero's after getting his knee surgery who knows what he's gonna react to that then one of the best players they were playing the premier league absolutely was gone yeah i think uh gundigan's gonna have to really step up and play a much bigger role in that midfield i think alongside kevin de bruyne i think roger's going to be the defensive midfielder i think that's their midfield starting three and then up top sterling's obviously going to claim that left-hand side i think there might be a bit of rotation on the right-hand side between bernardo silva and riyad mahrez and then jesus is going to play it unless uh aguero's fit and wants aguero to he has to start hold on i don't 100 agree with that midfield of gundagan de bruyne and rodriguez audrey yeah it's just the sunday gundog and uh i'm not overly convinced but i know he scored there for germany as well and like for someone who nearly ended his career to her injury he's been playing a lot of games but is this the time where phil foden gets into that team now i think we'll see phil foden feature a lot yeah but i don't think com you know what is the 19th of september i think mancy's first game is i don't think he'll be he'll be the first name on the team she i think it'll be gundagan i think towards the latter end of the season you'll see phil pogen's game time increase a lot yeah how could you think phil folden could be ross i think he could be england's best midfielder he looks like he has a serious toy for for a goal and on top of that the man city players are going to instill such confidence in him that i think he could be one of england's best players for a very long time all right so obviously he him and greenwood got kicked out you can score their recent out let's play again phil folden or mason mount id for england or yeah what am i picking i think the ceiling is higher with hill phone feel folding a track relish i'd probably have phil phone jacques looked right when he came out for england see though yeah but there is something about him that like i don't really trust on the stock it's not to do with the irish thing it's just there is off the picture pitch actions i think kids were a lot worse than phil phones phil phone was like some you know princess over finland was like or wherever she was she was like i want to hang out with you and he was like okay yes uh jack readers was driving his car drunk not the same and i feel like there's a lot more selflessness until phone than there is in relish who else would be madison madison yeah well i'll still pick filth no i think phil thought it was the best of those property right in there yeah but don't the only thing is he needs to put a bit more muscle on he's very slight yeah he is yeah um also the declan rice and jack readers played center made for england there over the weekend former that was a very strange way they started calvin phillips dick and royce and he was the third midfielder oh yeah whoever turned my father i can't remember what i was like that's three central defensive failures was it dire maybe yeah i think wall store he was playing i don't know if he's being sent back though i don't think so because they brought like ten center backs yeah all the center backs uh yeah so that's my city coming second right i know we went off in a bit of a tangent for that these are the football shows and this is what this is what we do yeah that's a shadow to the lads in the football group on whatsapp that's uh that's where all the action goes down really doesn't yeah it is yeah all the debates okay so then we've heard we've all agreed with first we've basically agreed with second and third spot you saw i'm gonna pick you you saw in the poll they went in order of last season's top five yeah you mentioned in fourth uh third last year chelsea came fourth so ross who's coming third i'm waiting i'm gonna say chelsea are gonna finish third and in terms of the players they brought in thiago silva coli havertz uh werner zeitch and then the way they finished last year you know i think pulisic is a fantastic player as well uh even like the depth of midfield they have kante they have mounts they have loftus-cheek you know the rotation available to chelsea for next year is absolutely incredible i've got ben chillwell's in a left-back a really reese james right back their only problem is their goalkeeper is absolutely diabolical but which one haha keppa but by that i think they've done such a good job of investing their squad as opposed to manchester united who finished her last year who would be my fourth place for this season i bought one player and donnie van der beek and i think it was very evident last year that saltyard does not trust many players past the starting eleven and until manchester united open up that checkbook and get a few more signings in i don't see them uh finishing the head of chelsea this year the way it looked is man united finished one point ahead of chelsea last season chelsea signings are definitely equivalent to more than one point in the premier league yeah well then going to death with chelsea so uh obviously there is their problem in goal they suppose you're trying to get down aroma i wouldn't be surprised to try to get all black like why not go for the best but um the defense ross yeah so already reached james are right back i think he's a fantastic young prospect for him and on the plus side for chelsea right back at england was so stacked he probably won't ever be called up this season so therefore he'll be with that squad the entire time he won't be injured going playing for england and in terms of center-back like they are stacked at centre-back they have uh malang tsar who they got for free who's playing the french league last year ripley's got thiago silva they have ruediger they have zuma also asked for a little credit can play anywhere across that back four so i think they will be a lot better defensively this year especially with uh thiago silva whether he even plays a lot or not just having him there and training showing the guys positionally and just talking with them will be absolutely phenomenal and then ben shall well left back i think you know someone asked me was he worth a 50 million pound price by attack i was like if one was hack is worth 50 million why can't ben chill well be worth 50 million i think he's a very very good signing and i also feel like there is less left backs available in the world right now then there is right backs and i think in terms of left backs it's probably top 10 best left backs in the world yeah definitely england's number one as well so so you don't think hospital credit is going to start this year because i might have to change the fancy football team now no yeah but that doesn't mean he's going to be the captain on on the pitch on the day i mean there's been a few times i think chile is injured that's why he didn't pick him chilly yeah so yeah so they're not like that defense is pretty good like if you're going obviously uh reese james right back then send it back to tiago silva with rudiger and then left-back chill like that's pretty cool defense and then what are you looking at him in the midfield because obviously that's going to drive them to uh turret spots as you well there is like loads of random rumors that kante might be leaving but for me like you can't have that midfield without kante uh but if he's in the squad like he should be starting i'll probably go kante kovacich or loftus-cheek and then maybe maybe mount it depends on what way if you're lined up whether you're doing a four three one or you're where they're doing a four three three i think they'll do a four three three i think men will probably see a good bit of game time there and then up top you'll probably have published on the left you probably have verner up front and then on the right probably call your verts but again see it they buy him for 45 million he could play mason mountain position he can play number 10 or on the right oh you can see him doing a more of a four two three one i think whatever is going to play down the middle i can see that as well he can do the right hand side or down the middle i think for me i think he's going to play on the right also i think pillarsitch averts and werner are going to be the top three because they can all speak german to each other as well which i think is a massive difference they can be saying stuff to each other and the defenders of the premier league won't know what they're saying what about rudy girl know what they're saying yeah you could be like guten tag no yeah chelsea's teamer but that's going to be a very interesting team to watch next year and of course uh verner and your friends football team yeah yeah yeah so then um number four is manchester united yeah i have manchester united uh i looked at the spurs and i looked at arsenal and i actually gave arsenal a stronger consideration than i did spurs for uh fourth spot well i think manchester united starting 11 is enough and i do think there'll be at least one more song whether we'll get uh regularly on the left back from sevilla and to shore up that left-hand side or will we get sancho in uh i do see united getting fourth spot i think they're starting 11 is strong enough and if you keep them fit and we would sort of rotate almost our b teaming for the club games all you can see you know doing very well whether we do rotate or not who knows because i'm sure salsa might be like oh the carlin cup of the fa cup might be an easier way to secure my job uh let's start at the back rush we're after getting henderson back into the team into the squad two we you know now two of the top five highest paid premier goalkeepers who do you go for get the game one i think david's gay i i don't even think it's relevant who i think i think dave the guy will start game week one uh he did play very well for spain there against germany uh last week uh we watched he did haven't seen him played out well in age so i i was definitely happy with that i think you have juan basaka i'd be maguire and lindelof and then if luke charles fit probably luke shaw i'm already sick of that sending my partnership already yeah well if it was up to me i would join the center half i'm confident of green who can do a good job on like sort of playing on the right wing if you need them to i think not conceding goals is more important as all good manchester united teams did they build from the back you have ferdinand the village you had yapstan you had the irwin and neville you have patrice evra i mean like our back was always solid and it gives those four players that bit more chance to express themselves when you look at the noise back four you're like they're not going to concede much you know like you could you feel like yeah but i do feel like a diego costa or something like bully lindelof i mean like lindelof looks like he can be bullied i would love to sign your man from lovesick uh um or however you say his name but like he's an absolute monster he scored for france the other day as well see martial scored as well to sort but not really but like he assisted warning yeah he wanted to hit the policy of the keeper went in and he was like yes i'm actually also on four anyway but uh yeah you know i need to definitely send it back just just to put uh maguire and lindelof like on edge being like i need to perform like i need to perform or else i'm absolutely out of the team not getting back in so then you're looking to feel ross like obviously donnie van der beek's have to sign him to be honest i don't think he's going to start i think he's going to be managed fernandez and pogba neither dwight i think he might play 30 premier league games this year yeah with his appearances but like traversing finally you know i mean like he wouldn't be on the team sheet but like uh he's definitely gonna get a load of games yeah i think you will get a lot of games i think there'll be a lot of him coming on after 60 minutes and i know who i think gonna pretty sure i've said to you before but if van der beek was to get in safe had to be obviously came you best performer in the field what position or whose position would he take i didn't take pogba's position i think he's like bruno fernandez i think is the most undroppable player we have i think i think vanderbilt could eventually take pogba's position if probably doesn't get to tell me i think this year like pogba supposedly being the king of the club is uh it's this is going to put him on edge he's literally getting someone who's um but pogba is up there in the millions he's up there with the the big dogs like the messies ronaldo's the neymars of being an icon of football but this is this van the beak he's just like a hard-working guy who wants to make a career for himself and uh yummy then he's getting he's getting he's probably one of them guys who's their first first like uh first yeah yeah yeah whereas you could tell pogba with the entourage and all he's probably missed missed that uh lift i think van der beek will come in and then make a big like it's all about what you do on the pitch fair enough pogba you got as low as the instagram followers cheers for the shout out but like are you scoring these goals just starting the order i think vanderbilt is going to be hot in his heels and i think he's more of a pogba position rather than a bruno fernandez yeah i think so i agree with you yeah well that's just that's what we're just waiting for and then over up front will be the usual suspect screamwood rashford marshall unless sancho comes in that changes and then if sanchez wants to come in he would drop out i think greenwood drops out just at the start of the season but i think by the end of the season rashford my little loser that's crazy isn't it uh okay so there that's top four rush for the uh honorable mentions for fifth and sixth uh oh i'm going to say arson finished fifth i think our teddy looks like well the players more so look like they've bought into michaela ortega's system um i think i'm staying aubameyang's staying uh lacazette is still there as well uh saka looks very very good uh uh danny celebs he's still he's coming back unknown i thought he looked very bright come the end of the season and then turn the center half you know there's uh celiba in there i think you know tierney looks like he's going to be one of the best wingbacks in the league this season as well on the left-hand side made the noise look good at the end of the year i think arsenal's team is starting to really take shape they're reboying to michelle arteta's uh system and i think they believe in him as a manager and they want to play for him and the goalkeeping situation ross obviously martinez came in was very very good and then leno started for did he suffer jeremy there you go i think he did yeah so who takes up the normal position because i was doing my fantasy football team and i was like who do i pick from either annoyed or arsenal and for me all you think martinez should start yeah i think well he's hot and while he's doing it i'd pick him i don't think leno's conference will be that knocked because he could be still carrying some sort of niggle of an injury i'd start game week one martinez he won the cup against city or he won against city and then they beat chelsea in the court you know i mean like he's the man on form right now that's who i'd pick yeah so it's just out of curiosity because uh you actually don't it's actually a tough oh yeah well i think bernado obviously has the bigger name the bigger reputation but if they were just called phil and lille you know i mean and martinez was little you'd be like right well lil's been better since he started playing that's just [ __ ] yeah and then um i'll go for arsenal fifth as well i think they're really going to push you know if united don't get sancho although if you know to get sancho i can see them reading them and chelsea battling it out for third and fourth but then uh ross are you gonna go for 60 is it going to be the all or nothing infamous jose mourinho team all i think will be spurs i think no hurricane's going to minimum score of 15 premier league goals in the season uh minimal minimum yeah yeah more than that well he gets injured all the time as well so like that's why i say minimum 15. but he only scored 17 last year uh i think someone's going to leave grab your 10 goals as well uh look from the best players in the league he is definitely one of the better players in the league when it comes down to it i think wolves and spurs are close to even to be honest in terms of their starting level but i think one thing that spurs did that both of them is they actually took matt darty off wolves and i think i don't think matt put matari in at wolves or in as far first actually make spurs like you know if they were a seven out of team 10 team they're probably like a 7.2 out of 10 now but i think it takes like wolves from 7-0 team to a 6.5 out of 10. like a lot of their attacking channel came from dardy and treyori and without darth vader there i think that very much so weakens walls i think for 15 million to let him go you're never going to be able to replace matt doherty with that 15 million so worthwhile again he must they must have someone coming through the utes or else they wouldn't have sold them for that jeep they would have just kept them for the end of the season then got for free who knows well they put down 35 million for the silva fellow who i've never heard of before it's just a striker i i actually don't even know what position he plays but there was talks of a damager already moving into roy wingback and having him bombing up and down the whole way i've never seen him uh put in a slight tackle now but go they could go for the low they've been looking for him from manu yeah true and he does have that uh those portuguese toys so it's not a terrible show the wolves team are class they're yeah they are um so you're like you think spurs and wolves are going to battle it out i would agree what about everything everything seems to be making a few moves as well i showed up on the island so yeah uh look they're after getting james rodriguez i don't know if uh alam or decorah has been linked but there was like photos liverpool corey i think cory signed last night well there was photos like last week of the quarry and james rodriguez eating in a restaurant in liverpool with ancillary i think alan signed as well sorry yeah so that's a brilliant midfield whether they can gel it together or not who knows but ancelotti is definitely someone who these players are going to play for and give their all for i think they're going to buy into a system i think the current everton crop players are going to go geez look the players bringing in he's bringing in hamas rodriguez you know he was the best player in the world up a few years back won the champs eagle real madrid i mean did it all with bar munich as well i think they're going to go right this is a serious talent that he's after bringing club he means business i think richarlison and i even think alfred lewin up front you know i mean are going to get their fair share goals i see them at least getting 12 goals each in the premier league season and if ever everton are going to try and break into the top six permanently i think nails are trying to push on with ancillary as manager is angelo still with it i'm not 100 sure if i would be like tactic not tackling whether he plays the most exciting football but i think in terms of going up against another manager in a game by game situation do i think he has the ability to out tactic another manager i think he does i don't know if maybe he does with a better team for everything i don't know i don't like he's definitely this is sort of the beginning of the end like winding down and if you don't mean like same sort of thing with mourinho i don't i don't know if angela could invest another 10 years into a footballer i think it's sort of like he needs to made ready-made to play now so you you just don't think he's going to develop the everton youngster is that what you're saying no like i'm sure he gives some players a few games i know he brought on that guy i think scottish who played right wing for everything i think another fellow you're talking about but like they have some good players there like tom davies is there and he's only young he plays midfield he doesn't he's not going to choose they're really it's someone like calvert leon i don't know if angela is going to stay in mercy's side for 10 years and bring him all the way through to become a hurricane i just don't see it happen but i mean like i could be wrong but it's just sort of what i see but um ross what time is rodriguez going to do for everything i know we were just talking about there but this is a huge name to sewing for everything and uh he's basically going to want to he's going to want to play every game because of the metal football he's missed their reason he put out is he going to play in the hole do you think they'll stick them on the left or right because the second most expensive player is sigurdsson 50 million players in that hole as well just behind the destroyer or you could definitely see him playing in behind in behind the two strikers uh more so because he likes a shot i i don't think sigurdsson is as willing to fire a shot he's more of a dead ball long range 20 30 yards out secure he's lethal but in terms of open play hammers regas within 30 yards of goal is a very dangerous player to have too old and i see him playing in behind the two with two laps generally just reminded me of hamas rodriguez moves if it works out for what we can sort of see it being it would be like the poet move to west ham i think it could be yeah one of them sort of things you know definitely cause he could you know turn a club on his head almost yeah or else it'll end up being a balatelli to liverpool well yeah the other side of everyone is they're very weak defensively like i'm not sold on michael keane the center half and i think pickford is like a very bang average goalkeeper as well so defensive i don't think they're great their wingmaster gordon james coleman and dignit but the rest of the team i'm not like brilliant gary mean i think sport he's like massive which i always think helps well i'm not mad on michael keane and pickford is there any other two who are funny enough in the union squad at the moment yeah i'm not mine in the meter but i i think paper is better than keane um is there any other honorable mentions for the likes of like chef you know or else you think they're gonna be able to do anything or does any other teams have to get promoted yeah leads but i don't think leads are gonna do enough to get into the sort of top six talks i think uh leicester city our team who were leaving now all together yeah lester as well yeah look i think every year i question it and like i've been proved wrong but can jamie vardy do it again you know and i think that question gets asked every single year and harvey barnes looks decent on the left but i mean they suddenly found a replacement for riyad mahrez since he's gone like someone to actually assist barbies four and 10 15 goals this season i don't think perez is going to be that guy and the midfielder still brilliant indeedy uh tails and madison like that's a very very strong midfield uh well's gone i don't know who they're going to play left back uh i know they have a guy justin james he looks he looks decent for i don't know they sort of sold chill well like 50 million in the bank and i haven't seen the boy anymore so the pain that makes them worse than last year and they weren't exactly fantastic post lock down yeah their squad wasn't big enough but um that's going to be interesting anyway i think next year is going to be the most competitive the premier league has been in a long long time i still think i definitely agree i still think liverpool and man city will do very well and a quotable of the rest but i think everyone else is going to be battling it out like having leads back in that's that's great because that just makes like another like weeks of fixtures way more interesting it's like oh how the leads do you know because they're gonna i think they'll probably get in the top ten but like even newcastle are boring players as well and then it's gonna be very interesting i mean well russ one one thing i will say on that barrier is i also think the winner of the premier league this year will probably win the premier league with about 86 to 88 points it won't be the high 90s this year either so you you don't you don't think you don't think the person though the team that wins the league this year will get over 89 points i think they might end up with like 92 maybe at a max right but i like it won't be no one will be looking at the hundred points this season put it that way yeah i think the teams that finish fourth instead of having like 66 points it'll be over 70 points yeah okay and then um ross relegation let's get into it last year we talked about the chef of the anointed we were relegated and we were terribly wrong with that but uh yeah um i'll actually find a relegation quite interesting this year one team who i was like not very sure of last year who already felt actually pretty wrong as i think bro you can have a good defense i think neil mulpoy they'll do enough to stay up and they would have been team i would look that performance maybe they'll go down i think ass and villa are after an audi watkins today and from brentford and he scored an awful lot of goals last year in the championship he's one of the top goal scorers there whether you can do in the premier league there's another thing you know i still think aston villa are going to get to go down even with that signing i just feel defensively like they're not up to and i don't like their goalkeeper i think neyland his name i don't think he's very good for who so villa what rayna was playing yeah but i don't know if he's going to be playing next year he's like 38 or something now grandpa better than neyland uh so i don't know i just don't think they'll are going to stay up all right so there's one and that's the videos one uh i don't think west brom are going to stay up either um or ip robinsons new five-year contract and i probably don't think fulham are going to stay up either experience i think they're going to be the three to go down i think leads will say like uh i've pretty much agreed on already everything you've said in the show as well i think that's because we spent too much time hanging out so like my opinion has become your opinions your opinions are my opinions then it's just one energized opinion but uh there's something about west brom that's just so it's just like a horrible team not like you're you know like like that fixture you're never even looking forward to so like i'm going to go west brom to get relegated i i just thought they had a burke that they had as well as that's going to sheffield united and he's decent scottish uh scottish player then um fulham just cause they're so open down up and down up and down like a browser's knickers and then um let me know the team they're off cruiser palace newcastle burnley for some reason i know i know you said brighton for some reason maybe brighton i don't know i think chuck ritter should be he's obviously gonna stay i think he's gonna do better with them next year so i don't think that i'm going to one thing i will say about brighton is i think their midfield is a bit poor they all did after cover they sort of like got into a room remember they beat arsenal remember that sort of oh i'm going to go brighton west brom and fulham to go down uh also my cousin sports fall on a few of them actually do that so hopefully they don't but let's see what happens russ let's get into the top goal scorer then uh top goals got her last year he did the top goal score for me this year is going to be pierre aubameyang pierre hoyberg first now i'm going to go for aubameyang i think aubameyang with this arsenal setup under arteta is definitely going to be their top goalscorer and i think he could definitely score 25 goals this season he also hits the penalties there as well so that's what i'm gonna go with he also has the ability to like score a hat-trick in the game which i think if you are gonna be top goal scorer you need to be able to score a few braces or a hat-trick trade season he's going to be my pick for top dollar score this year what about yourself plasma what about jamie verde oh you see james vargas going about 17 goals this season if i feel like lester are going to finish our toy top six so i feel like var you won't be top goal scorer but if leicester finished inside the top six bradley has a chance to be in top goal scorer right become like more a focal point for them than ever well if you're looking last year right jamie vardy won it with 23 goals aubameyang came second with 22 goals joined with danny ainge uh fourth of three teams starting with 20. salah came fifth with 19 and then hurricane manney voted on 18 rather him as 17 so as well as rashford as well as martial aguero was 16 obviously injured and then uh tommy abraham's 15 jesus put it this way sergio aguero will be top goals from the premier league every season if he played 38 games his golden minute ratio is like a goal the game yeah i think it's going to be salah maybe money but i think it's going to be one of the liverpool players they just sort of coast through games it's actually uh even funny and salad is going to join money this year yeah that's the best one that's why i'm going for that i don't know why i think salah also is on the panels now as well milner is going to play a lot less yeah i think it's because maybe saturn felt like the loneliness was sort of leaving on there last year and he's like you know i want that again maybe he was trying to get a move but no that's not possible but who knows so uh question for you about you how many goals think timo werner is going to score because he's obviously the biggest striker who's coming into the premier league this season i know isn't he is he or is it like man city or liverpool or man you know i'm sorry destroyer felt state arsenal didn't touch striker spurs and so on uh how many goals is um verner going to get in the premier league yeah i'll say at least 15. i was thinking the same i was thinking sort of 17 18 19 mark yeah that in around there 20 is a lot to ask for in your first league this season because they're obviously going to be having the guts of the motions and sorting things out but but i also think pool of citizen perverts are going to chip in quite a bit with with their own goals they might score 10 goals each which will like probably take away from verner's toe is there a german goalkeeper chad's a good guy yeah leno yeah actually yeah uh no because their whole spawn could have been german then ishvian isn't it so i'm gonna go top goal scorer salah you're gonna go obama player to season ross because uh kevin de bruyne is a champion this year kevin de bruyne is undisputed for me i'm going to say virgil van dyke uh each time i see this sally he seems to get better and better i think he's absolutely phenomenal on the ball as he is off the ball his level of calmness is phenomenal and it's very strange that you'd almost say the best player is a center back because normally that doesn't make sense well i just think you position for position i think you could argue he's the best player in the world i'm gonna go for bruno fernandez just what he's done since he's come to the club now i know some of his records can be padded with the penalties for him it doesn't look like he's going to miss a panel as well and um question on that do you think someone a team can finish fourth and that player can win player of the season you see that's the thing that they need they need to come in third like i quite i'm quietly confident you know i will get necessary because i think i believe they will get sancho but as things stand right now it's like i i see them foresee them coming forth i think over the duration of the season you know like found a beak would only get better orange sharp bizarre i put it away neither of us would be surprised to see asala salah or as brown a winner either yeah yeah i don't know yeah it was just it was just giving a curveball sort of thing you know but uh that actually leads to the surprise of the season ross you actually came up with this one here like so what what are you thinking like surprises in like little uh sorry like liverpool santiago or like uh oh no so sure i got fired i i was more saying like someone who would far outperform where they think like if you think like danny ings could have been surprised this season last year you know 22 goals second top goals for um i think i was taking leads originally because but like i feel like everyone's on the leads bandwagon now that they're gonna like go and finish uh in the top 10 and they're going to be you know this force be reckoned with for years um i'm not actually 100 sure what my surprise of the season is going to be but what i'm going to say is mason greenwood scores more goals in the premier league than marcus rashford and anthony martial put together no he's the top goal scorer for man united in the premier league do you think about two euros absolutely yeah yeah as long as he keeps his tinder turned off grinder but uh no that's actually a decent surprise as far as the season messy signs for man city attended here that's not really a surprise but well it wouldn't be not a surprise either yeah because he said you're staying at barcelona now so i don't know whether that means he's got a one-year contract he signs no contract who knows what he's going to do liverpool are trying to get suarez and always linked with uh juventus but they should probably try and get him now because that would fit him that's actually a brilliant tournament for them i didn't even think about that yeah see what would you do without here man you know the miles ahead street head ross another random question i was going to bring up um will kobe be sorted out by the end of the season my biggest worry is actually culver to be sorted out for euro 2021 i know but like it's mario things are opening back up and it's like things are getting worse but um ross i didn't wear the shirt for no reason barry listen to you slave steal kenny kenny right so ross who's going to be ireland's player of the season for me i think if ireland are to qualify for euros and get the job done i think it's going to happen aaron connolly that's actually not a bad show i'm just gonna go for uh guardian and just play and play it safe but uh ross is running as i said the premier league is back this weekend i don't think that wraps it all up first game first games on saturday it's getting kicked off but flown versus our arsenal half 12. we're obviously late probably going to do and all the the crack and then the united are back the week after as well as mancy so there's it's going to be non-stop action kicking off this saturday can't wait ross enough to say the lovely people that have been checking out the show and
