hello and welcome to the squeaky bum

Time Podcast presented exclusively on

0:06

the chop Sports channel of the premiere

0:09

streaming Network we record we're

0:11

recording this on Thursday January 26th

0:14

I am your host Laurent core teens in

0:18

this episode we're gonna preview the

0:21

whole FA Cup fourth round and find out

0:23

whether people are into heavyweight

0:26

clashes or David vs Goliath

0:29

but first we will start with the Great

0:34

and Powerful

0:35

Arsenal verse Manchester City

0:40

wow so this game's a big deal this is

0:44

the first time both clubs are meeting

0:46

each other this season very odd for this

0:49

time of year very strange but uh because

0:53

of the Queen the the death of the queen

0:55

and because of where both teams have

0:58

been we now have the first view of

1:02

Arsenal versus Manchester

1:04

City

1:05

this is a big game

1:08

um while it's the FA Cup and it's not

1:10

the league it will be a marker for both

1:13

teams to see where they are we've seen

1:16

in the last couple weeks Pep Guardiola

1:18

very concerned about where City are

1:22

emotionally mentally whether they're up

1:25

for the fight with Arsenal and on

1:27

Arsenal's side they've come across every

1:30

hurdle they can renewing rivalries

1:32

beating all comers beating Spurs beating

1:36

Manchester United they are in the form

1:39

of their lives they are in the shape

1:42

that they need to be to face

1:45

um their biggest test of the year now

1:48

let's get into it

1:51

City have defeated Arsenal

1:54

very frequently especially over the last

1:57

six meetings City have won

2:01

all of them

2:03

Arsenal have not beat Manchester City

2:05

since 2020 in the FA Cup semi-final so

2:09

Arsenal do have good pedigree in the FA

2:13

Cup against City but not in the league

2:15

but they haven't met each other for 18

2:18

whole months craziness craziness

2:22

um

2:23

City come into this game

2:26

very

2:28

in very good shape I think they've sort

2:30

of righted the ship

2:33

um no injuries City have everything to

2:36

play for

2:37

um the mahrez greelish partnership has

2:39

been really good uh de bruyne is in good

2:42

shape especially after his last game and

2:45

then we'll see what lineups are put out

2:49

for this game I would imagine knowing

2:51

Guardiola knowing arteta he's going to

2:54

want to see where his team is and not

2:57

mess around maybe we'll see trust art

3:00

start I'd expect to see Holland this is

3:03

one of those where we don't know what'll

3:05

happen but for City it's less of a

3:08

change

3:09

if City you know play whatever their

3:12

alternate lineup is oh we're gonna play

3:14

fodin and Alvarez instead of

3:18

um instead of Holland and grealish oh

3:20

we're gonna play Bernardo Silva instead

3:23

of and gundogan instead of uh instead of

3:26

Kevin De bruyne so for City they have

3:30

the depth and that's that's the reason

3:32

why team why they're always picked to

3:34

win the league is they're one through 15

3:36

or 1 through 18 is better than anyone's

3:38

in the league but we know with Arsenal

3:41

because we talked about it last week

3:42

they are grooved

3:46

for their their they have seven players

3:49

don't miss the game all year whether

3:51

they will play and show their hand uh is

3:55

unknown unknown just a few facts here

3:58

just that can run off for you guys

4:01

City have actually won 12 of the last 13

4:03

meetings versus Arsenal but this is a

4:05

new Arsenal so the new narrative is

4:07

going to be written

4:09

um this is really about

4:11

you know where these teams are this is a

4:15

mentality check this is a are they there

4:18

for Arsenal it's about

4:22

not getting beat badly or not getting

4:25

beat at all uh actually it's about the

4:27

performance and how it works like if

4:29

City come on and have one of their games

4:31

and blow Arsenal off the park I very

4:34

doubt that'll happen then there's a

4:37

psychological blow then we have another

4:39

Narrative of oh is Arsenal ready

4:42

if City

4:44

lose

4:46

then we get another Arsenal's get ready

4:48

for the title alternative is ready for

4:49

the title they're on for the double

4:51

these are things that go on I'm trying

4:53

to think of all the all the narratives

4:55

if you if City win they're supposed to

4:57

win and now they have they have a a leg

5:00

to stand on for the league

5:03

and then if it's a close match

5:06

that City Edge but Arsenal play well in

5:08

bloody City then then there's less of a

5:11

oh Arsenal's ready then these things are

5:14

up up and in decent places so every one

5:17

of the outcomes has a little bit of um

5:20

of uh of a step about where we want to

5:23

go and how we want to see this and what

5:26

is going to happen next so from that

5:28

perspective it's really super duper

5:31

interesting and I wonder where Arsenal

5:34

go and what city do my prediction is

5:36

city will win this game because they win

5:38

every time at home

5:39

um I am afraid of course because I'm not

5:42

naive I'm not silly I'm not dumb I know

5:44

the power of Arsenal I know where they

5:47

can go but I think the FA Cup is really

5:50

about

5:52

small teams about growing about seeing

5:57

friends that you don't see very often

5:59

and for us that's really

6:02

um for us that's really about talking

6:04

about our friends from Wales

6:07

um our friends from wrexham to see what

6:11

they're up to so rexham we know are

6:14

still in the cup uh owned by

6:16

owned by Rob mcalleninny and Ryan

6:20

Reynolds they still are in this

6:22

competition they get another challenge

6:24

after defeating carpentry right now they

6:27

are flying I know from our group that um

6:32

that everyone loves rexham they love the

6:34

narrative they've done a great job of

6:37

putting this team on the map of putting

6:39

this team in a position for people to

6:41

fall in love with them we know about the

6:43

city ground being sorry about the

6:45

racetrack and wrexham being one of the

6:47

oldest International uh stadiums in

6:49

football we know all the history from

6:52

following along uh on the show and uh

6:56

it's fascinating to get this game rexima

7:00

now box office they've got to be

7:02

televised we've got to see them

7:04

um we've got to find out where they are

7:06

and what they're up to and how they can

7:08

play we know we'll see Mullen up front

7:10

he's the star of the team but all the

7:12

other players are stars in their own

7:14

right

7:15

um that that are making a go of it for

7:19

themselves

7:21

um

7:22

and we just want to see that story come

7:25

through uh rexham are on an incredible

7:27

run they have not lost since October and

7:31

they actually have won their last six

7:32

games in a row uh and like I said they

7:34

knocked out Coventry already Sheffield

7:36

also in incredible form this is

7:39

Sheffield United the blades last of our

7:42

friend Chris Wilder who had a great they

7:45

finished a ninth uh but they they had a

7:47

tough second season

7:49

where they couldn't really move on and

7:51

then Wilder left the team there was a

7:54

little bit of internal turmoil but they

7:56

still have their Premier League money

7:57

they still have the buys and the core of

8:00

that team is still on this team and they

8:02

are flying in the championship eight

8:03

points clear of the of the third place

8:06

finish so they're going to come back up

8:08

um where they'll be okay and like I said

8:10

they're both in incredible form

8:13

um

8:14

but with this game being at the

8:16

Racecourse ground

8:18

in wrexham

8:20

we really have an opportunity for an

8:24

upset The Bookies already have rexham as

8:26

a as an upset for two to one it's a good

8:29

bet

8:30

um they've got a Crest running for them

8:32

for Sheffield

8:35

I know they're in great shape flying in

8:38

the league right now but

8:41

do they need this game do they have

8:44

extra gear they have a lot of injuries

8:46

John Fleck end of Stevens George Baldock

8:49

all out

8:50

um for for Sheffield United I do have

8:53

one player to keep an eye on and die

8:55

he's got 10 goals he's been real Illman

8:58

undai he's up front for

9:00

um

9:01

for Sheffield and he's quite good so

9:05

this should be a good one this is the

9:06

Sunday late game that we'll all be

9:09

pulling for we'll all be rooting for and

9:12

I think from the perspective of a fan

9:14

rexham has got so many American fans now

9:17

that we all can't wait to see

9:20

um uh the racecourse

9:22

explode with joy and see if they can't

9:25

get another round a cup run for wrexham

9:27

is just pure magic for them and their

9:31

fans and where they're moving I do want

9:34

to move on to some other games because

9:38

um we have to talk about my friend Mr

9:40

Jesse Marsh who

9:43

takes his lead side to accrington

9:46

ackerington Stanley I'm literally

9:48

bringing up names of teams because

9:50

they're ridiculous so accrington Stanley

9:52

just has one of the great

9:54

one of them great names in football but

9:57

what's interesting about this is they

10:00

are going to present a problem to Leeds

10:04

um they are gonna house this game

10:06

up

10:07

442 two blocks of four just sit behind

10:11

the ball and make leads break them down

10:13

and the issue for leads is they can't

10:16

break anyone down they're all about

10:18

transition and running through and

10:21

attacking and barely getting the right

10:23

decision uh barely making one or two

10:25

passes together but running and carrying

10:27

the ball

10:29

um I don't I think this is an upset I

10:32

don't think leads can pull it off but

10:33

worth a worth a look for our friends at

10:37

Leeds and the Great and Powerful uh

10:39

accrington Stanley uh just because I

10:41

need to say it Leeds can't buy a win

10:44

they are just completely drawing

10:47

everything their last game they won was

10:51

against Cardiff in the FA Cup but

10:53

otherwise they're winless in their last

10:54

five with lots and lots of draws they

10:56

can't seem to stop drawing you know West

10:58

Ham they drew Newcastle they drew they

11:02

had a draw first Brentford nil nil in

11:04

their last match while Atkinson come

11:06

into the game

11:08

winning in boring wood on the replay

11:11

just just today just the other day but

11:14

they haven't had a win either they beat

11:15

Bristol Rovers uh the other day moving

11:18

in to this game I don't know much about

11:20

accrington Stanley to be fair but this

11:23

is the magic this is what makes the FA

11:25

Cup so wonderful

11:27

um and and where we want to go and what

11:29

we want to check out

11:31

next I do want to bring up uh for

11:33

because we have so many Liverpool

11:35

supporters that we have to check in on

11:39

um

11:41

Liverpool you've got uh Brighton

11:44

how are you feeling about that good

11:48

uh Brighton who I shared earlier are the

11:50

fourth in the league in scoring

11:52

um they're really flying in the Premier

11:54

League they've scored more goals than

11:56

United they've scored more goals than

11:58

Liverpool they've scored more goals than

12:00

Newcastle so this is a team in Brighton

12:03

at deservey he somehow solved the

12:07

problem of um

12:09

that was going on with them

12:14

with Brighton where they couldn't finish

12:15

and he has found a striker in young Evan

12:19

Ferguson with matony matomi next to him

12:22

and Sally Marsh they are now this

12:24

attacking force with McAllister casero

12:27

engross behind him I mean this team's no

12:29

joke like don't with

12:32

Brighton they are better than Liverpool

12:34

I don't think this will be an upset like

12:36

I said I already bet on it in the league

12:38

uh I don't know if I'm gonna bet on it

12:40

again but there's no reason to think

12:42

Liverpool's gonna win this game away

12:44

from home the only thing that I think

12:46

about for Liverpool is perhaps

12:51

they're too good to have seen Liverpool

12:54

a third time so this will be the third

12:56

match that Liverpool have seen Brighton

12:58

they drew

13:01

at home 3-3 that's the trossard hat

13:03

trick game he's no longer with the side

13:05

he's joined it he's joined Arsenal but

13:07

then they got the doors bowling all from

13:09

two weeks ago what makes us think that

13:12

Liverpool won't get the doors blown off

13:15

them that's that's the question right

13:16

like

13:18

what has changed at Liverpool since they

13:21

played Brighton that thinks they won't

13:24

get beaten by Brighton again Brighton

13:26

are better

13:28

um mentality this is a tough team

13:30

there's a lot going on with it maybe

13:32

klopp will play all the kids but as far

13:35

as I can tell there's no reason there's

13:38

no reason that that Brighton should lose

13:41

this game but a draw might be you know

13:43

might be there uh the prediction here

13:45

from who scored is is three two if this

13:48

game is 3-2 it's going to be the

13:49

greatest single three-game series

13:51

against two teams that the world has

13:54

ever seen so I'm praying for it they're

13:56

a dark horse in this I think Brighton

13:58

there's no reason that Brighton cannot

14:00

win this thing uh it's a fast fantastic

14:03

Little Match that we should check out I

14:05

do want to kick off into some carabao

14:08

Cup highlights just because

14:12

uh uh I'm gonna kick off into the

14:15

caramel Cup highlights because we've got

14:18

our semi-final legs already done we've

14:22

got um

14:24

Newcastle

14:25

up on Southampton and United up on

14:31

Nottingham Forest both played their home

14:33

legs and have gotten the teams moving

14:35

the way they expect so we we can expect

14:38

likely that the final will be Newcastle

14:41

versus Manchester United and what a

14:45

moment for both these clubs specifically

14:48

Newcastle who haven't won a trophy since

14:50

the 50s United will feel like it's their

14:52

Birthright will feel like they're better

14:54

uh no you're not you're not better than

14:58

Newcastle

15:00

all the underlying numbers say that it's

15:02

not true Everything says that's not true

15:05

I would be surprised if this isn't a kg

15:09

semi-final they still have a leg to go I

15:11

don't want to put my cart in front of

15:12

the horse uh again Marcus rashford just

15:16

against against Forest just went through

15:19

them it was a goal of pure beauty uh we

15:21

were talking about it in the chat

15:24

um is he the most likable United player

15:26

for a non-united fan

15:32

no the answer is no him he's a red

15:35

uh United can go suck an egg please uh

15:39

nuke uh Southampton don't really have a

15:42

fight they have to go up to St James's

15:44

Park to try and get something from uh

15:46

Newcastle down a goal Newcastle don't

15:48

give up goals at all uh

15:52

Nick Pope is on I don't know 11 clean

15:56

sheets in goal he's saving their ass I

15:58

wonder what we do look like if he uh you

16:00

know been in United instead of the hair

16:03

listen I'm not killing the hair I'm just

16:05

saying Nick Pope is better

16:07

um and then um our friends from forest

16:09

their their Journey ends but they have

16:11

bigger fish to fry to try and stay in

16:13

the league versus worrying about whether

16:15

they're gonna make it to the carabao Cup

16:18

Final although the League Cup is

16:20

something that they have history with I

16:22

think it's the last trophy that Brian

16:23

Clough won when leads when when forests

16:26

were still part of the league so good

16:28

history there but not not not the trophy

16:32

they're looking for right now I'd say I

16:35

would first they're all about staying in

16:36

a leak and they have a very good shot at

16:39

doing that so

16:42

very cool stuff a couple of little uh a

16:45

couple little cultural things that um

16:48

that were brought up that that I looked

16:51

into uh around this and it's

16:55

um

16:55

just the

16:58

FA Cup brings up weird stuff

17:00

so

17:03

Bristol City are in this thing against

17:05

West Bromwich Albion and you get like

17:07

little tiny weird anecdotal story so I

17:11

was listening to the totally football

17:12

show

17:14

um and they were talking about how

17:16

Bristol City's fans have a website that

17:20

is just a timer

17:22

for the Last Time Bristol city

17:25

um scored a penalty I believe they're on

17:29

uh over 400 Days

17:32

um that that Bristol city has not had a

17:34

penalty drawn against them it's just the

17:35

little things that fans do that that

17:37

drive themselves nuts uh and they have a

17:40

fair shot against West Brom but you know

17:42

it's just one of these funny funny

17:44

little things funny these little like

17:46

anecdotes about uh about football around

17:49

stuff like that like Bristol City

17:52

thinking they're hard done by not

17:54

getting penalties by the way Liverpool

17:56

have not had a penalty called for them

17:58

this year either so it's a normal thing

18:00

that happens you know on a big season

18:02

the team will get four penalties called

18:05

their way on a bad team on a Bad season

18:07

you know you might not get any City I

18:09

think only have one or had had one last

18:12

year and it's very weird and you feel

18:13

like your team is under psychic attack

18:16

for not

18:17

um getting a uh a penalty but the

18:21

Bristol City fans have taken in it a

18:23

little bit further than you would expect

18:25

on that one

18:28

um yeah I don't have a deep uh a deep

18:32

feeling about this one but we should

18:33

probably talk about our friends at

18:37

Everton so we know that dice has been

18:40

sacked

18:41

um sorry we know that Frank Lampard has

18:43

been slacked the sort of diametclees

18:45

daishakles has hit Everton

18:48

they have not hired a manager yet

18:52

they are not in the FA Cup

18:54

they are nowhere and the club is right

18:59

now rudderless

19:00

they cannot go to their friend Duncan

19:02

Ferguson because he's taken the forest

19:05

green Rover's job which is the most the

19:07

weirdest job for him because if you

19:08

don't know this look up forest green

19:10

Rovers they are owned by a uh

19:13

sustainability sort of entrepreneur and

19:16

wealth and millionaire who is all about

19:19

like the club is green they wear

19:22

um

19:23

the whole stadium is covered in in um in

19:26

in solar panels and they wear you know

19:29

sustainable clothing and bean burgers

19:31

and no meat it's a very funky little

19:33

club that uh that Duncan Ferguson has

19:36

taken the job over but um

19:40

Everton I don't I think I should

19:42

probably give a little bit of History

19:43

Everton are a massive massive Club this

19:46

is not some rinky dinky Club I mean in

19:50

through the 80s

19:52

Everton had won the league they were up

19:54

there with with Liverpool it was not

19:57

Liverpool was gigantic through history

20:00

of football Everton and Liverpool were

20:02

right next to each other and it's only

20:03

the 70s it's only the 70s and 80s that

20:06

really pull Liverpool away from the rest

20:08

of the clubs but through their history

20:09

they've been neck and EXO you know

20:11

through the 60s Everton were right there

20:14

um

20:14

they've never been relegated from the

20:16

Premier League and is only a handful of

20:18

teams that can say that especially over

20:21

the last 20 30 years

20:23

and they're looking at bielsa which I

20:27

think is crazy uh he's not

20:30

a firefighter guy otherwise why wouldn't

20:33

he be stayed at Leeds

20:35

right

20:37

Everton's problems are

20:39

defensive and spirit in some sense

20:43

um the other option is daesh but

20:47

it doesn't seem like daesh is a cultural

20:51

fit for Everton right now

20:53

I think fundamentally

20:56

Everton fans want a team that reflects

21:00

passion and caring and and something

21:03

that will Mark the club and and move

21:05

them forward and I don't think they're

21:06

going to get that with daish whereas

21:08

bielsa does tap into emotion and does

21:11

bring you to a different place but you

21:14

have to be all in on blc's Mo uh

21:16

otherwise

21:18

um you're going to be in trouble

21:20

so I'm not sure what Everton does but

21:22

watch this space they have had some

21:24

terrible terrible things happen uh

21:27

players want to leave Onana wanted to

21:29

leave didn't go to training

21:31

um uh they had a transfer get stolen

21:34

from them so danjuma had made a

21:36

commitment to Frank Lampard to come to

21:39

Everton

21:41

and because they fired

21:44

Frank Lampard he reneged

21:46

uh I don't blame him I don't think it's

21:48

it's bad he didn't sign the contract yet

21:50

but he did have a physical with Everton

21:52

and now he's gonna be with Spurs so

21:55

danjuma are not danjuma who was really

21:58

good

21:59

helping Bournemouth go up

22:02

two seasons last two seasons ago two

22:05

seasons ago and then they sold him and

22:08

he went to Sevilla where he's been very

22:10

good if you watched him under unai Emery

22:12

he made a huge difference in their

22:13

Europa League run and Championship so

22:15

danjuma is a really good player I don't

22:17

know how he fits in to Spurs plans but

22:20

he's more depth maybe you know maybe

22:23

maybe Sunny gets moved off he plays on

22:26

that side that Sunny normally plays on

22:28

so we'll see it's another attacking

22:30

person maybe kante will play him as a

22:32

uh as a as a wing back who knows

22:35

so we'll see what happens there but

22:37

Everton in trouble not able to get any

22:39

transfers over the line it's going to be

22:41

them against the world and they already

22:43

went to that well can they go to the

22:45

well again Ken bielsa bring the team

22:48

forward can it happen for them again I

22:50

don't know and I do worry for them a

22:53

whole whole lot but let's go through

22:56

some more final FA Cup uh fourth round

23:00

games we'll start

23:03

um with like I said here's the schedule

23:04

just go through the the timeline City

23:06

the Arsenal that's tomorrow get involved

23:09

Warsaw vs Lester man Lester are freaking

23:13

terrible Warsaw just hanging in there

23:16

just a champ a league one side you'd

23:18

expect lesser to handle it we're glad

23:20

that James Madison's back then we have

23:22

Abington Stanley also League one against

23:24

Leeds but at home so that should be

23:26

interesting then the salty Bristol City

23:29

versus West Brom that's a battle of

23:31

Championship clubs West watch Bristol

23:33

City get a penalty

23:35

lewton Town versus Grimsby lewton is the

23:37

higher team there so we'll see what

23:39

happens there then Blackburn with their

23:40

new manager play Birmingham city

23:42

Sheffield Wednesday oh the Wednesday

23:44

against Fleetwood town I love these

23:46

teams please let all the small teams

23:48

drop out so we get weird teams uh Fulham

23:51

V Sunderland Fulham at home against

23:53

Championship level Sunderland who have

23:55

been playing better they're the original

23:56

wrexum with uh Sunderland until I die

23:59

much sadder than the wrexham show

24:02

because they were on the way down versus

24:03

on the way up uh Ipswich Town versus

24:06

Burnley

24:07

Vincent company you beautiful bald

24:09

bastard has Burnley playing well could

24:12

he get further he should he should feel

24:14

favorite against Ipswich Town not sure

24:15

if he's going to rest his team he does

24:17

have a 13-point lead and then

24:19

Southampton play Blackpool after getting

24:22

beat in the carabao cup Blackpool has a

24:24

new manager as well and then Tottenham

24:26

play Preston North End you know I have

24:28

to say in my last episode I Carter sort

24:30

of said

24:31

um

24:32

Tottenham didn't have much to play for I

24:34

was wrong Tottenham has the FA Cup to

24:36

play for the league to play for

24:37

especially fourth place and the

24:39

Champions League I sort of felt like

24:40

their season was petering out because of

24:42

the way they had been losing games but

24:44

not so not so they're in decent shape

24:46

and they can keep moving on and then

24:48

again

24:49

um not Manchester City but Manchester

24:50

United have a not a cakewalk they could

24:53

lose to reading reading our Championship

24:54

side uh under

24:56

uh underperforming their sort of middle

24:59

of the table but United at home against

25:01

reading you'd expect ten hog to push for

25:04

them that's the late game on Saturday

25:06

and then on Sunday like I said

25:09

Brighton Liverpool's the early game then

25:11

Stoke stevenage our friends from Stoke

25:12

they used to be sexy sexy Stoke under

25:15

Mark Hughes they've been uh in the

25:17

wilderness in the championship staying

25:19

there for a while and then finally

25:20

rounding out the round wrexham for

25:22

Sheffield United for our viewing

25:25

pleasure

25:27
