BladesPod: Southampton Preview | Premier League narratives

[Beans]

Afternoon all,

Real football is almost back, so me and Roygbiv had a good old chat about many things, including United's out-on-loan players (01:35) and our international Blades, including Oli McBurnie vs Scotland (09:35).

Next, we go through the narratives of the Premier League season so far and discuss whether we think they'll carry on through the season or just prove to be nonsense in a few months. Includes:

• Watford are going down
• John Lundstram is a Premier League quality midfielder
• Palace are actually good and will finish in the top 10
• Norwich's defence will see them struggle
• Enda Stevens is our most irreplaceable player

And a few others.

Finally, a preview of the Southampton game (54:55), before I'm joined by Matt from Southampton Dellivery podcast to get an opposition view of this weekend's match (01:09:55).

As always, cheers for listening and UTB!

Loved this one lads. Been proper bored over the break.

Crazy that the nearest coherent and rational Southampton fan was found in California...

Someone pointed out to me that the only game I've not had an opposition guest on for was the Leicester game... the only one we've lost. I actually had a complete timezone fail with this chap that almost meant going guest-less for this one but fortunately he found a bit of time in his day.

A 'timezone fail????

I remember young Beans when his arse was hanging out of his trousers and he were one of us. Since he's been hanging about in Monaco with Roygbiv , things have all changed and it's all Mr International Dateline this and Premier League that.

Just remember the poor people who paid your wages in the early days etc etc etc.

Ta guys, I need this pod to function after an international break.

I was about 20% sure I'd pronounced that word right but oh well, it stays in.
