“I love the premise of the pod and the BFW website which I read almost religiously. My gripe with the show is how opinionated the hosts can be without supplementing their claims with good stats. The hosts criticize Gnabry and Upamecano regularly, but their evidence is often anecdotal and places too much weight on mistakes rather than putting those critiques in context of other aspects of their performances.
Personally, I listen to sports commentary to learn something I don’t know from experts or well-read individuals. Right now, the show just feels like a space for upset fans to air their grievances, and I worry this culture of negativity (unintentionally) contributes to harassment of players on social media, and leads to some players to perform worse or leave on a free transfer.”
