Hi everyone, and welcome to the Daily Brentford Podcast from the Global Sports Podcast Network. I'm Lydia, and for this week's crossover episode, I'm joined by Josh from the Daily West Ham Podcast. How are we today, Josh?
00:00:21
Josh Keech
Yeah, not bad. i'm I'm very much looking forward to this week. Obviously, it's a busy one for all of us clubs. We've got Carabao Cup and also Premier League as well. So it's going to be a ah busy one, I think. But yeah, I would i'll be lying to you if I said I wasn't nervous. so
00:00:36
officialgspn
Yeah, you've got a big night tonight. I mean, we are recording this on the Wednesday, but how do you think that this will impact your game on Saturday?
00:00:46
Josh Keech
I've been saying this week, and I've been saying to you know fans and friends that have asked questions, obviously, see how things are going. And it's a very big worry right now what's going on, to be honest, because the last thing we want from it, we've had, it seems to be, so many London Darby's.
00:01:01
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:01:01
Josh Keech
We don't actually leave the of South or London till mid-November, which I can't be, I just can't can't believe it, to be honest. But it means that every game matters. So for us right now,
00:01:11
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:01:12
Josh Keech
We don't want to be seeing three nearly against Chelsea, which but we've just we've just faced, obviously.
00:01:16
officialgspn
Mm-hmm.
00:01:16
Josh Keech
So it's a bit tough. I feel like every week we just did mourning after another awful loss. But um yeah, it's going to be tricky tonight because obviously we need to get as much game time as we can for all of our players.
00:01:30
Josh Keech
so
00:01:30
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:01:31
Josh Keech
it's It's hard enough anyway, I feel like i've been I've been reading about the new Lopategi roulette, because we're just sat at the moment with every line up changes every week, substitutes get made out of nowhere.
00:01:42
Josh Keech
I think some players need some core game time and I think that's why we need these tournaments. So kabuup for us it matters to get as much games as we can for the likes of the new signings so and getting as much of the players as much minutes as we can do.
00:01:48
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:01:55
Josh Keech
so I'm very nervous about who we're going to be playing when and where because I'm cautious that we've been using some of the same individuals every week. So even more chances of injuries and it it just worries me when I see players have a little, a little fall or a little limp.
00:02:02
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:02:08
Josh Keech
It just, at this point in the season, I think it's just too early that you hate to see anyone getting injured.
00:02:09
officialgspn
but Yeah.
00:02:12
Josh Keech
And we've got a couple of other, you guys have had a few recent injuries.
00:02:15
officialgspn
Yeah, as a room for fun, I can 100% relate to that. It seems like how we already got this many injuries.
00:02:22
Josh Keech
I know. Yeah, I mean, I like to say I'm relatively clued in with Brentford. But I think the most reason why I've seen is obviously we are being injured.
00:02:29
officialgspn
Yeah, that was obviously a big blow, especially after Tony leaving and stuff.
00:02:29
Josh Keech
So that Yeah,
00:02:33
Josh Keech
yeah but that's one of my my big questions today was going to be about yeah how are you guys dealing with, you know, the lack of Tony up top. So as one I'm really keen to to hear about with you guys, but we've equally had our ah I mean, we've had Nicholas Fulcrum be injured now and thinking he's going to be back every week and every time they say, oh yeah, he's ready to play.
00:02:50
Josh Keech
And it doesn't show, it doesn't turn up to the training cause he's too injured. And, uh, I'm just.
00:02:54
officialgspn
I did, teasing you, tempting you.
00:02:57
Josh Keech
Yeah, I know. I don't know why it happens. Just they'll say, Oh, yeah, he's some injury boost.
00:03:00
officialgspn
but
00:03:02
Josh Keech
He's back now is going to really throw a spanner in the work for this team. And yeah, it doesn't seem to happen. So I'm really hoping he is actually fit to this week because we need him because we have our biggest curses striker, I think.
00:03:11
officialgspn
yeah
00:03:15
Josh Keech
everyone will say that strikers are our most cursed position, you know, we've had the likes before of our, you know, previous history up top with the signings we make, I think, I think I saw the worst in the years, like how much money we've spent in comparison to City on strikers is, it's so weird, there is a similar amount of money.
00:03:31
officialgspn
yeah that is crazy as soon as you start like having comparisons with city that's when you know it's like insane spending yeah yeah just for like sending things to your friends basically
00:03:37
Josh Keech
Yeah, so I'm, I'm just hoping that he's back because we've not had much fortune up top in that department. We've got the players, I think, at least on a wide wider variety. You know, we've, we've had a very busy window, but ah it's just one, I hope everyone can just suddenly do a good performance. And I'd love to see it against Liverpool because half my mates are Liverpool fans. So I'd love to see a win just for that aspect anyway.
00:04:00
Josh Keech
Yeah, that's it. Yeah, that as well.
00:04:02
officialgspn
Yeah, so.
00:04:02
Josh Keech
Um, but yeah, I mean, have you guys, you guys got carrot bark up this week, haven't you? you i've I actually
00:04:06
officialgspn
All right, yeah.
00:04:07
Josh Keech
um yeah
00:04:09
officialgspn
um Oh God, I need to remember, actually. Oh, my head's all over my face. Pardon?
00:04:14
Josh Keech
and You've got us at the weekend, so that's a good start.
00:04:16
officialgspn
Okay. Who was it? Oh no, we we had it last week, that was it.
00:04:21
Josh Keech
Oh, okay.
00:04:22
officialgspn
and to reason love it We did win.
00:04:23
Josh Keech
um
00:04:24
officialgspn
I was thinking, wait, we don't do it this week? No, we don't.
00:04:27
Josh Keech
Yeah, we it's been weird for us.
00:04:28
officialgspn
But, yeah.
00:04:30
Josh Keech
We've had Liverpool now, and then we had Bournemouth the last time it was round. So I'm i'm a bit kind of i'm annoyed if everyone's getting easier teams than us.
00:04:38
officialgspn
Yeah, yeah, you do seem to have it quite tough.
00:04:38
Josh Keech
but
00:04:41
Josh Keech
It's been very moaning on our our GSP in West Ham.
00:04:46
officialgspn
No, honestly, we're the same just with injuries instead.
00:04:46
Josh Keech
it's not
00:04:49
Josh Keech
ah Yeah, I can imagine the, uh, so the, my latest knowledge is obviously, I know you guys lost to Tottenham. So the biggest worry I have for this weekend is with the current runnings of form, both teams desperately need a win.
00:05:00
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:05:00
Josh Keech
So I'm going to be doing my best to be optimistic that we can be the ones that win. But if you look at that,
00:05:06
officialgspn
And obviously, I'm going to be feeling the same optimism, but for Brentford instead.
00:05:10
Josh Keech
yeah because I think, um, so your, your like recent run of form has been, it's been within hours, I think, from what I've seen.
00:05:16
officialgspn
Yeah. No, it it has been better than you guys. I can't lie. So I'm hoping to see that continue. um we Yeah, I think our form at home is a lot better, but we have had like a rough run.
00:05:23
Josh Keech
Yeah.
00:05:31
officialgspn
away, we had Liverpool, City, Spurs, so I think that, yeah, I've got a good feeling, like we haven't considering all the, you know, Tony leaving, all the injuries, things like that, I'm less worried about us than I thought I would be, if that makes sense.
00:05:31
Josh Keech
Yeah.
00:05:48
Josh Keech
Yeah, I think that's a good thing. And with the window as well, obviously, um I know you signed, is it Carvalier from Liverpool?
00:05:54
officialgspn
Yeah, yeah.
00:05:55
Josh Keech
Yeah, I think that's a ridiculously good signing for the money.
00:05:55
officialgspn
um honestly when I saw that I was like okay finally like we're actually spending some money thank god although we did also sign a different brazilian we signed um Igo Tiago who of course got injured before the season even started and I think he many of us thought that he would be the obvious Tony replacement uh so we haven't been able to see him yet so and now with Whissa as well it's looking a little more shaky but I'm sure
00:06:03
Josh Keech
yeah
00:06:19
Josh Keech
Yeah.
00:06:26
officialgspn
We can, Brentford, I feel like we have lacking resources, but we always make the most of what we do have. So hopefully that happens on Saturday.
00:06:34
Josh Keech
Yeah, I do have that. I think it's very similar for us. I mean, I spoke with the Fulham guys, not too long ago, ESPN, and it's bre with with the previous results anyway.
00:06:40
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:06:44
Josh Keech
But Brent was always that team for me when I see us playing on the in the upcoming matches, that is one way I get a bit worried because you see results coming from you think sometimes it might be a win there, or we could have a really good set form.
00:06:56
Josh Keech
And I'll look at Brent for to go, actually, I can see the points changing another way.
00:06:59
officialgspn
yeah
00:07:02
Josh Keech
um but But yeah, I mean, I guess that big question then is so with with all these injuries, how front do you think the the goals are going to be coming? Where are they coming from?
00:07:11
officialgspn
I think that, you know, obviously Brentford's an attacking team and I don't think Frank will change that even with the injuries. And I know that he's been relying more on, obviously we've got Brian who did score at the weekend. So I think he's one to look out for. And I think that now with these injuries and with Tony gone, it's time for Kevin Schulman to really prove himself. I don't think when he joined us,
00:07:35
officialgspn
think people were expecting big things, but he's quite young and I think it's taken him a while to get used to the prem. So I'd be expecting him to, you know, be one to look out for as well.
00:07:46
Josh Keech
Okay.
00:07:47
officialgspn
And, you know, as we were talking before, he said, when you see us on the, like, sorry, when you see that you're playing us, you always feel nervous, right? So at the last four and of our five home games against you, we've
00:08:03
Josh Keech
Yeah.
00:08:04
officialgspn
won them all, including the three in the Premier League. But having said that, in February, I was surprised, but also not too surprised that you beat us 4-2.
00:08:15
Josh Keech
Yeah, it's it's true.
00:08:15
officialgspn
So I do think we have to remember that as well.
00:08:18
Josh Keech
Yeah, I mean, the last four games for you guys at home, it's been wins the last six games, you've won five and we've won one of them being the last one in February. So I'm that that's the other reason for me to be rather scared, isn't it?
00:08:27
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:08:29
Josh Keech
So the, ah the only hope I can have is that both you know, that game we did play, obviously, it was four goals from us, I think it was in February, wasn't it?
00:08:37
officialgspn
Yeah, it was four goals. It was quite...
00:08:38
Josh Keech
Yeah, it's a bow and hat trick.
00:08:40
Josh Keech
kind come
00:08:40
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:08:41
officialgspn
but that's why I'm scared for him. I'm scared of him on Saturday.
00:08:45
Josh Keech
Can't I absolutely love him. I think he's he's just one of those players that everyone's worried about and I ah say a lot of my mates are Liverpool fans at home and I always used to say about how Klopp used to rave so much about Bowen but all that does is just gives me so much fear because it means that I know that there's going to be some players that will probably be out the door if we don't have a good season this year.
00:09:05
Josh Keech
so
00:09:06
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:09:07
Josh Keech
the likes of Bowen, Kudos as well, who has just been absolutely setting our team alight with the runs that he does make. he's He's just absolutely incredible on the wings. So it's that we've got the players apart from the actual clinical striker at the moment. Yeah, we've got that striker problem with the fact that now we've got no fault crook who was our, I'd probably say one of our most impactful signings for positions that we need because we're so lacking up there at the moment. We've got Antonio who can do a job at holding players up and allowing the wingers to have that freedom and because both of them can play at that kind of more central forward position with Bowen obviously playing forward for you know for us previously with Moyes and also when he's been for his um his international stints as well it's one where we're a little bit now hoping that we just need him to either really do a job for us but his form has been lacking so much in the last five games and I really am shocked to see that he's
00:09:54
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:09:59
Josh Keech
getting more he's getting more minutes i thought he would be considering because loer
00:10:03
officialgspn
Yeah, on Saturday, I i can't know, went the clips, the highlights I saw, he didn't look as much as a threat as I thought he would be.
00:10:03
Josh Keech
you a few
00:10:11
officialgspn
But I don't know if that's, I was going to ask this later on, but we'll move on to talk about your new manager after the first ad break.
00:10:11
Josh Keech
no
00:10:25
Josh Keech
getting more, he's getting more minutes, I thought it would be considering because
00:10:48
officialgspn
Right. So as I was saying before, how, like, what are your thoughts on your new manager and what does he need to do to prove himself?
00:10:57
Josh Keech
If you'd asked me a few games ago, I'd be more confident. ah Our run in form has been absolutely dire, which for me has been a bit more of a concern with the, I think a lot more of the fan base now we're saying is the grass always greener after David Moyes.
00:11:00
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:11:10
Josh Keech
And I think after the Chelsea game, Moyes has probably sat at home laughing with a cup of tea because
00:11:11
officialgspn
you
00:11:16
Josh Keech
villa loss palace a win it was a good game but it didn't really show enough if we'd have seen more wins like the palace one i'd be more confident but we've had then the loss against city i mean everyone's going to be saying yeah it's a loss against city i controversially i said to those boys after the game at at gsp and city that i thought that we actually played surprisingly well in comparison i don't think the stats quite showed how well we played for them
00:11:24
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:11:39
Josh Keech
but we normally can have a you know quite a good game with them as it is but a loss against them still nonetheless and i was very surprised to see us get a draw against Fulham that that Fulham game with a last minute equalizer from Danny Ings just shows how desperately we need to start turning things around um i think from a signings perspective i think most people probably be saying that we've had quite a very busy window and also a good one with some of the deals we've made i think some of the likes of i'll say about Max Kilman's been one of the best centre backs I think I've seen play for us there in the recent years just in his solidarity at the moment at the back, considering he's come in during the window and he's played every game for us since and in pre-season.
00:12:20
Josh Keech
He's looked so solid, I mean it's what you get from paying $40 million for ah from an ex-Wolves captain so it's it's it's expected to see that performance but I don't think you expect all your all your new signings to get settled so quickly and and he has ridiculously well.
00:12:28
officialgspn
Hmm.
00:12:33
Josh Keech
and um very shocked that he probably didn't get a call up just for at least the international friendlies who had recently because it probably would have been a different story if he had a gun and It provides the option for anyone may have those you know big jobs to do later on when we have all the next big tournaments so Yeah, a bit of a shock in that one.
00:12:49
Josh Keech
And then Wamba Saka, as well, for me, I think, has been an absolute steal for the price we paid for him from from anxiety to to be honest, you know, being able to play at both positions at left and and and right back and being able to come in as well.
00:12:55
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:13:01
Josh Keech
And I think everyone has the idea, i even I i say I have it as well, that Wamba Saka can't can't attack really. And he's ah it's really his defensive game. That's what's known for. But within the first five minutes of getting his first proper game time,
00:13:13
Josh Keech
is properly involved in getting an assist with you know with Bowen. So for that sense i'm I'm happy that he's done such a good job so far. I just want to see everyone else coming into fruition. but ah We've just had such problems with getting everyone involved but um yeah it's it's just been a bit of a busy one with it to be honest.
00:13:22
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:13:29
Josh Keech
and I still don't think we've got our guaranteed first team lineup yet, which I think what we can see from every every game so far, we're making subs in the first half, halftime subs and the wrong subs in the second half, which thought I've been moaning about this week, because one of our biggest signings that I've been looking forward to seeing Somerville from Leeds, because we paid absolutely pennies for him.
00:13:33
officialgspn
yeah
00:13:50
Josh Keech
And he's been incredible, looking like he really wants to score. And you want to see that from your forward players. And it's always a passion really to drive, but we haven't
00:13:55
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:13:59
Josh Keech
We haven't almost had that really apart from, you know, from him and a few of the other forwards, but getting subbed off against Chelsea within the you know very early part of the second half. We're already getting booze from, from to the managers of our substitutions already choices.
00:14:10
officialgspn
yeah Yeah.
00:14:12
Josh Keech
So yeah.
00:14:14
officialgspn
To be honest, quite a few of his decisions seem very random, like even from an outside perspective.
00:14:20
Josh Keech
Yeah.
00:14:20
officialgspn
Like I saw, I think, Was he saying that Fabianski's to start tonight? So I wonder if that will happen again on Saturday, who knows?
00:14:29
Josh Keech
Yeah, I really appreciate it.
00:14:30
officialgspn
But it seems like testing the water kind of.
00:14:33
Josh Keech
Yeah, yeah, it's it's weird. I mean, I think everyone kind of calls it at the moment. It's a little opportunity. He's lucky dip. No one really knows what's going to be on the scorecard. And I didn't I've not actually seen about Fabianzky starting.
00:14:43
Josh Keech
cause So that's news to me right now. So I'm now very worried. because We've been saying that Fabianzky's got poppadom wrists when it comes to catching balls. So it's, it's just one of those things where we always seem to get the balls going into very dangerous areas even after a first initial save.
00:14:59
Josh Keech
So I'm a bit worried. yeah but I mean it's it's tricky isn't it because this is a situation where we've got two big teams two big London and London teams as well so I don't really know how this game is going to shape up against us at the weekend I really can't call it to be honest because you guys have had better form in the last couple of games but also as well
00:15:08
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:15:21
Josh Keech
every All of us need a win, I think.
00:15:23
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:15:23
Josh Keech
There's a lot of teams that haven't had the best start so far to the season, so it's very tricky so far. But and how are you who are you most, I guess, scared of seeing from us? And who are you most hyped to see for um for you guys to get a goal on the score sheet?
00:15:38
officialgspn
So I'd say, as I mentioned before, definitely considering his like last hat trick last time we met, Simon, obviously I think despite his maybe lackluster performance on Saturday, he's still a big threat for us. And I do think that... Oh, sorry. One sec.
00:15:57
Josh Keech
That.
00:15:58
officialgspn
And four, in terms of who I'm excited to see from Brentford, definitely Dan Scard. I think this season he's come back. He had various health issues. I think he had arthritis, like they were quite serious um and everyone knew that he was capable of more. And it was only it's only been the last few games where he's really strode.
00:16:17
officialgspn
what he's made of in a Brentford shirt. So I think that'll be exciting. And I think now that because of our injuries, as I keep mentioning, he's got that opportunity to be consistent in the starting lineup.
00:16:26
Josh Keech
Yeah.
00:16:28
officialgspn
So I think that if anything, this will just increase his confidence and prove like what we all knew he was capable of before his health issues and things like that.
00:16:38
Josh Keech
Yeah, that's that's fair enough. I think the the big thing I've been down to guard one of those players I've always seen that I think I think I saw him as when we played, we played against Denmark and all that round of the it euros a few years ago now.
00:16:50
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:16:51
Josh Keech
He just absolutely turned up and I thought, wow, that'd be a really good signing for for a London club. Unfortunately, it wasn't our London club. So
00:16:58
officialgspn
He came over to where like, it seems all the Danish players decide to go. So yeah.
00:17:05
Josh Keech
No, but it's weird because I've not seen him since do too much. and notice that I don't realise as to why, so that makes a lot more sense now.
00:17:10
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:17:13
Josh Keech
He's always been that, oh, I've not seen Damms guard play. So yeah, a bit of an interesting one.
00:17:16
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:17:17
Josh Keech
But if he has that opportunity, then more reason for me to be scared, it sounds like so.
00:17:21
officialgspn
Yeah, I think he's definitely want to watch out for on Saturday. And what are they gonna say oh yeah, any standout Derby days, London Derby days, any stories you'd like to share? This is like a question I like to ask all our London Derby crossover episodes.
00:17:38
Josh Keech
Yeah, i've i've I've got one that I think was just an absolutely incredible one. that i'm going always I think every West Ham fan will think about. And it wasn't too long ago. It was during our sort of Covid era of football when anything can happen. And it was West Ham versus Tottenham.
00:17:52
Josh Keech
Now, for for me, it was one of those games where I sat watching it at home. I was actually at university at the time, and it was one of those games where I was surrounded by a Man United fan and an Arsenal fan who wanted to see Spurs beat us, but they just honestly then beat each other's teams.
00:18:01
officialgspn
yeah
00:18:06
Josh Keech
But um at the time we went 3-0 down in the first half to Tottenham, which it's just one of you you you want to turn off at that point, and it's absolutely miserable.
00:18:13
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:18:14
Josh Keech
We still had the likes of Al Bono was playing most of the games. And I just can't believe that we did at the time because the amount of the pace that you had at the time was just not not not all we needed. But the the quality wasn't there.
00:18:25
Josh Keech
I think Antonio was in one of those seasons where we'd get a few goals out of him. Bowen was just starting to come into the lineup. And obviously Declan Rice doing the job in midfield until he's obviously gone now. but But reminiscing on those days, it was incredible because 3-0 down in the first half, me almost giving up.
00:18:41
Josh Keech
And in the final, i they scored three goals in 20 minutes.
00:18:41
officialgspn
and
00:18:44
Josh Keech
And we scored in the final 15 minutes, three more goals. And it was the Lanzini equalizer for me was the one where it's the big Lanzini shot from outside the box off the volley. And it goes straight top corner and commentators go wild.
00:18:57
Josh Keech
And me off my sofa also goes wild as well. So that's my biggest one.
00:19:00
officialgspn
the
00:19:01
Josh Keech
Have people asked you what yours is as well?
00:19:04
officialgspn
I'd say mine was, it was probably, it was just, this is just after COVID where we could go back um away at Chelsea.
00:19:09
Josh Keech
Yeah.
00:19:12
officialgspn
but And I remember getting the bus because obviously you could just get the bus there. And I think we ended up winning like 4-2 and that was just the atmosphere, everything. I was like, the amount of people, because I was still in sixth form and half the people supported either Chelsea or Fulham and then there was every other team and the me the one Bremford fan so I was like ready to come into school to chatting about it the whole next week yeah ah that was just that was a good memory yeah yeah
00:19:39
Josh Keech
I think it's really good when you're in that kind of point of education and and around that time of when, when your team wins, you just get pure bragging rights. like And it doesn't matter if, you know, you could just win one nil at the weekend, or even even if it was a draw against a big team, you could still give it the big ones. You know, ah so I used to love doing it, if it was that result you get against a big team, and you know, there's those fans in school or say at university even work, I think for most people these days is the big one, if your team's played, or it's the ah it's quite the big one. I'm I'm currently ah living in Nottingham at the moment. I live about a stone's throw away from the forest ground and the absolute rivalry I get between all of the people up here is ah is incredible.
00:20:16
officialgspn
Well that sounds good. Right we'll go to a quick ad break and then give our final school predictions before we head off.
00:21:03
officialgspn
All right, before we go, Josh, what are your final school predictions for this Saturday?
00:21:08
Josh Keech
Right. Every time I've done one of these episodes with everyone else, I have always said something absolutely ridiculous. So today is the first time I'm going to be quite screwed on with my prediction.
00:21:19
Josh Keech
Previously, every game that we've played, there's always been a minimum of two goals.
00:21:24
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:21:24
Josh Keech
I'm not going to be surprised if we see that again. I just don't know which way the goals are going to go. Optimistically, I'm going to say we win 2-1.
00:21:32
officialgspn
Okay. I'm going to say a tool draw that I've just got.
00:21:35
Josh Keech
or
00:21:36
officialgspn
I think there'll be a lot of goals. That's what I think.
00:21:38
Josh Keech
I think so. I think there'll there'll be that desperation from both teams that they're going to need to do that.
00:21:39
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:21:42
Josh Keech
Do you, I know you guys have been playing in a sort of three to five back recently. How, how do you reckon you guys will shape up this weekend?
00:21:49
officialgspn
I think probably similar just because of injuries and stuff like that. We just really, I think at the minute we just can't really.
00:21:53
Josh Keech
Yeah.
00:21:57
officialgspn
change our formation ah as it stands until a few people come back please go hopefully they get better soon because we've been waiting for a little time but yeah like we are literally like on the sort of thin ice in terms of like we cannot make any more formation changes at this point it's just like they're dropping like fires honestly
00:22:00
Josh Keech
but never
00:22:07
Josh Keech
so that's weird. I always thought that I'd be moaning but at least we can change our formation at the moment with the players that we've got. So at least racismism oh
00:22:22
Josh Keech
ah
00:22:24
Josh Keech
No, that's a tricky one. I think what if you guys do, that's going to be difficult to break down for us. Cause I think we've been typically playing in a four back formation, but I mean, jealous we saw a very wide sort of, we're playing a three backslash off the ball and needing it a five back to try and retain it.
00:22:31
officialgspn
Yeah.
00:22:39
Josh Keech
But I think that it's going to be tricky. So I'm hoping we stay with our normal four back formation of a four, three, three, but, uh, it'll say I might have to put some bets on packet out to get some yellow cards.
00:22:49
Josh Keech
Cause I think that's what's going to be, uh, that will get us the win. I think if I bet for him to win, then then we'll be all right.
00:22:55
officialgspn
Sounds good. All right. Thanks for joining me today, Josh. And everyone, thanks for listening and make sure to give us a rating.
00:22:58
Josh Keech
Thank you.
