“Listened to the most recent episode and I feel like they nerd out on the facts without getting into the deeper meaning of what abramohvic warped and what it meant for others. Listen if you want to hear them basically read a news article without offering anything substantial. Listened to a couple...”Read full review »

“Found these guys on Twitter. Have listened to their podcast for a few months. Have never heard them discuss a non-big 6 PL team for more than 20 seconds. I’m sure the plastic American fans will enjoy”

“Over the past 3 or 4 years I’ve alternated between listening to most episodes for want to anything else to listen to at work, and giving this pod a go only when I’m completely starved of soccer content. Regardless of the frequency, I’m left disappointed pretty much every time I tune in to this...”Read full review »

“They both have excruciating voices. Annoying vocal ticks. Many, many stuttering uh uh uh uh uhs.
They are completely enthralled with xG.
Anything that Brighton or Manchester City do is brilliant.
Tremendously smug.
This pod will take all the fun out of football.”

“Only complaint would be that I constantly have to adjust volume in my car bc Goodman speaks so much louder than Caley I find it hard to find a middle ground when listening on airpods. Otherwise I love the content.”

“I love this pod - I'm a patreon subscriber.
But this was such a disappointing episode. If you didn't watch the game, you would think Man City beat Spurs 5-1 or lost only bcos they missed 10 open goal opportunities, not that Spurs clinically tore them apart by building from the back for...”Read full review »

“If only these guys were as smart as they think they are………it’s as if they say before every episode “let’s try and talk like people who know football……. Even though we know nothing about football” they over complicate every conversation with useless counter points just to hear themselves speak....”Read full review »

“I’ve just heard the show about sports washing. Can I just say it was the best show about the take over at Newcastle. The excellent nuance of the show shows how bad some of the British media are. Keep up the excellent show. Another 5 stars.”

“The whole contrived-energy thing I could just about deal with in exchange for above-average analytical insight into matches. But the lack of historical knowledge shows. For instance, David Moyes’s Everton were never “on the way to 13th before a good run-in took them 8th”. That describes recent...”Read full review »

“Two great dudes with terrific insights and stories, but I’m so frustrated by the continued decision to split a podcast in two and put it in two different places. Either put the pod behind the paywall or don’t. Half and half is so disjointed and unpredictable and frustrating and has lost my...”Read full review »

“Great analysis and focus on soccer. No dumb banter.
Intelligent and insightful football analysis.

Keep up the great work!”

“Отличный подкаст. Сплошная аналитика. Отличный разбор тактики и продвинутой статистики. Никакой фигни из разряда "Команда была психологически не готова" и тому подобного. Рекомендую всем тем, кто хочет еще лучше разбираться в игре.
Упор больше на АПЛ, но и другие лиги периодически...”Read full review »
