Let's Fix Football

Hosts Gabe Lezra and Evan Mateer run down some bad takes from the week in European football: Arsenal won the North London Derby--so they're really good now! Spurs lost? They're terrible and are in desperate financial shape and will implode soon and also Arsenal are better than Spurs at spending their money because they pay way more for worse players and finish fourth a lot. Then they dive into the myriad stupid opinions about Expected Goals: for some reason this was the week that a bunch of media personalities decided that they would offer their least interesting, most boring takes on the intro to soccer analytics-level statistic, expected goals. Enjoy the ranting.
