What’s up everyone and welcome back to Unseen Incidents! With the end of the season almost within reach, we take a look back at 2023/24 to ask what we learned. We’ve got players we were wrong about, a Klopp retrospective, more Manchester United misery, and some appreciation for Carlo Ancelotti’s sweater vest. Then it’s the Burn Book, with biltong, VPNs (sponsor us), and sneakerhead pervert culture. Thanks for listening, and consider supporting us at patreon.com/patrickvs!

Hello and welcome back to the Unseen Incidents podcast! We took an extra week of holiday so Pete could get married, but now we’re back and answering your questions. This time, that means swapping clubs, as I set out to fix Manchester United and Pete tries to take Arsenal to the next level. We talk managers, tactics, and, of course, summer signings, as well as the state of Marcus Rashford, before we open up the Burn Book, which this week features memes, work on your phone, and snacks. If you...

Hey and welcome back to the Unseen Incidents podcast. We look ahead to the most important event of the season, Pete’s wedding, including his form as he heads into that key fixture with Jess. Then we turn to your questions, discussing some players who could fill holes at the Prem’s big six, including midfielders for Arsenal and Manchester United, and a forward for Tottenham. Then it’s the Burn Book, with shoe sizing, the gym, and work sickos. If you’d like to hear more from us, subscribe at...

Hello and welcome back to Unseen Incidents, where this week we are taking on the draw for the UCL quarter-finals. The four best teams left in the competition are all on one side, but how do we see Arsenal-Bayern and City-Real Madrid playing out? And with the winner of Barcelona-PSG facing an easy semi, could one of them actually sneak a Champions League trophy? Then we’ve got the Burn Book, with “St Paddy’s Day”, Netflix queues, and cardigans. Subscribe at Patreon.com/patrickvs for extra...

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This week we're following up our Liverpool episode with a look at Bayern Munich and Barcelona, who will also both be looking for new coaches this summer.  How do Barca's finances affect their search? What do we make of Xavi’s work there? And, after disposing of Tuchel, where do Bayern go if they can't land Alonso?  Then it's the Burn Book, with sneezing, awkwardness, and pub food. For access to exclusive bonus episodes,...

We’re back for another episode of the Unseen Incidents podcast, and this week we’re following up the Kylian Mbappe news with a discussion of his move to Real Madrid and PSG’s post-superstar prospects. How does this affect their squad-building? Are Osimhen, Rashford, or Leao good solutions? What does the next decade look like for the Parisiens? Then we’ve got the Burn Book, with side-sleeping, the sugar tax, and gym hogs. If you’d like to get extra episodes of the pod, or just want to...

Welcome back to the Unseen Incidents podcast! We’re a week late this time due to me having another baby but now I’m back to coparent our audience with Pete. We’re taking stock of the Liverpool situation, after Klopp announced his summer departure. What sort of squad has he been building? Why might Liverpool’s style be an issue long-term? And what do we think of the principal candidates for the job: Alonso, Nagelsmann, Zidane, etc? After that, it’s the return of the Burn Book, with office...

Hello and welcome to the Unseen Incidents podcast, where this week we’re answering your questions! First up we have our predictions for the year ahead, including Premier League and Champions League winners, the coming summer’s headline transfers, and surprise teams on the up. Then we turn our attention to the Premier League midtable, and ask how high teams like West Ham, Brentford, and Brighton can aim. Is Villa’s success replicable? What did Leicester teach us? We also spend a bit of time on...

Hello and welcome to the Unseen Incidents podcast, where this week we’re bringing forward our customary late-season Arsenal-bottling episode. The Gunners are on a run of 3 losses in 5, and have seen their title chances drop to almost zero in the betting markets. But how was the Villa loss different from the West Ham and Fulham ones? How can xG help us understand, and how is it lying? We dig into Arteta’s mistakes and the players at fault. Then it’s the Burn Book, with crisps, leaving early,...

What’s up everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. I’m now recovered from a life-threatening house move and Pete and I are finally taking a look at Manchester City, who might actually be in some sort of real crisis for the first time under Pep. What’s up with their squad-building? Is it just injuries, or tactics too? And what are their chances for major honours? Then it’s the Burn Book, with knockoffs, Rolexes, and Birks. Thanks for listening this year, and don’t...

Hello and welcome to the UI podcast, where this week we discuss three teams mixing it with the big boys this season. But how seriously should we take Girona and Bayer Leverkusen’s title challenges, and Aston Villa’s tilt at Champions League qualification? Then it’s the Burn Book, with portable gaming, organised fun, and positivity. For access to our bonus episodes, subscribe at Patreon.com/Patrickvs for $6!

Welcome back to the Unseen Incidents podcast, where this week we’re looking at the weirdly open Champions League field. City are the accepted favourites, but who is next? How good are Real Madrid really? What has Xavi actually done with Barcelona? And who are our dark horses for the competition? Then it’s the Burn Book, with the Smiths, black-tie weddings, and an idiot running through Africa. If you’d like to hear our takes on Arsenal and Bayern Munich in the UCL, subscribe at...

Hello and welcome back to Unseen Incidents! It's international break time, so we're taking on your questions, starting with the biggest mistakes football fans make. What do supporters get wrong about corners, tactics, and pundits? Then we look at Everton, whose early season numbers are shockingly great. Are they totally safe?  Then we've got the Burn Book, with fancy glasses, loud music in cars, and ice hockey. Thanks for listening, and make sure to subscribe at patreon.com/patrickvs for...

On this week’s episode of Unseen Incidents, we’re diving headfirst into the debate around Liverpool. Yes, they lost to Spurs, but plenty of people think a title challenge is a reasonable possibility for the Reds, and that they are back above Arsenal and Newcastle, but what suggests that’s right, and what are the red flags? We dig into the red cards, van Dijk, Salah, and the new midfielders to see what kind of side is Klopp is building. Then it’s time for the Burn Book, which this week...

Hello and welcome to Unseen Incidents, where this week we’re hitting the big red button and examining Manchester United’s crisis. What’s going on with them this season? What is ten Hag getting wrong?

If you don’t already, subscribe at Patreon.com/Patrickvs for access to bonus episodes!

Hello and welcome back to the Unseen Incidents podcast, where this week we’ve accidentally produced a marathon episode, going through the Premier League’s top 8 sides and rating their transfer windows. We discuss why we hate Nunes and love Doku, Amrabat to United, Liverpool’s great midfield rebuild, and the mystery that is Brennan Johnson. Then we open the Burn Book, which features pints, cycling, and the death of Twitter. Thanks for listening, and do rate and review us, plus sign up at...

Hello and welcome back to Unseen Incidents, where this week we're diving into Chelsea (before their blowout win over Luton). What kind of squad has all their spending created? How does this team even fit together? What's still missing? We go into all this, plus our larger questions about Todd Boehly's attempt to disrupt the football landscape. Then it's on to the Burn Book, which this time out features Disney adults, double beds, and water. Groundbreaking stuff. Thanks for your support, and...

Welcome back to Unseen Incidents! We’re back from hiatus and ready to dive into football again (reluctantly). And on the first episode of our second season, we’re looking ahead to the campaign to come in true hater fashion, taking a look at Spurs (surprisingly positive), Hojlund (surprisingly negative), Liverpool’s new-look midfield, and a bunch of other stuff which comes into our heads. Then we have the Burn Book, with air fryers, suits, the colour brown, and shopping trolley...

Hello and welcome back to the Unseen Incidents podcast. This week we’re talking Champions League, with the final largely considered a foregone conclusion. But do Manchester City have weaknesses? Is there anything about Inter which gives them a shot? And how have Lautaro and Lukaku been underrated this season? Then we've got the Burn Book, with tacos, hangovers in your 30s, and advancements in eye mask technology. Thanks for listening, and if you'd like to hear more, head to...

Quick update on this week's episodes.

What’s up everyone and welcome back to the Unseen Incidents podcast, where this week we’re looking back at the season in our own (bitchy) way, with our biggest surprises and disappointments of the season, plus the most overrated and underrated players and coaches.

For access to our subscriber episodes, sign up at the $6 level at...

Hello and welcome to the Unseen Incidents podcast, where this week we're asking whether Arsenal are actually bottling the Premier League. Two draws against West Ham and Liverpool put Arteta's team in a difficult spot, but what did they get wrong in those games? How are they coping without Zinchenko and Saliba? How do you even beat Man City? Then we've got the Burn Book, with rudeness to service staff, Just Stop Oil, and being fit boys. Thanks for listening and for your 5-star reviews, and...
