Jägermeister knows that there's people who watch the game and people who know the game. Knowers know rivalries aren't heated. They're ice cold.

They know rankings change. Traditions don't. And they know that when you drink Jägermeister on game day, you drink it ice cold. Otherwise you just don't know the game.

So drink it ice cold. Or don't drink it at all. Jägermeister. Damn that's cold. Drink responsibly. Jägermeister liqueur 35% alcohol by volume. Supported by Mass Jägermeister US, White Plains, New York.

Joe (1:26)

Hello and welcome to another podcast from Fantasy Football Scout. It's the Goals Imminent Show where we use underlying stats to try and predict future returns in the Fantasy Premier League game. Welcome everyone.

Marc (1:47)

Yes. Hi everyone. Hi Joe. Welcome to the Goals Imminent Podcast. My name is Marc. This is where we look at recent statistic, ones that hint at which players are about to score in Game Week 9

So how are things going, first of all?

Joe (2:01)

Yeah, good. I mean, I had a bad game week, but it was a good week to have a bad game week because everyone had, well, not everyone, but a lot of people had a bad game week, either small green arrows or big red arrows. So I got a small red arrow and I'm still hovering around the 50k mark. So I consider myself quite lucky there.

And some of the things like Palmer and Gross and all those kinds of things impacted my team. But Pedro was my captain, but I was vice captain of Harland and I had Tavernier and Miramovich to help me out. So it was a red arrow, but not a massive one. But anyway, how was your game week?

Marc (2:43)

Well, it was quite big, red. So this time last week, I was talking about how I kind of regretted hitting the wild card button.

Joe (2:52)

Okay.

Marc (2:53)

And it was a disaster.

Joe (2:54)

Yeah.

Marc (2:56)

Just a nightmare from start to finish. Sold concert right before his goal.

Joe (3:01)

Yeah.

Marc (3:02)

Just thought that the Ryre would have been the better long term. Sold Leno. Finally tripled up on the Chelsea attack, even though it didn't want to. And of course, they got like zero points between them.

When Gibbs White over Tavernier, just a horrible decision. So yeah, 39 points, a drop from 120k to 219k. It was going to be a lot worse if it wasn't for that Mohammarovic clean sheet.

Joe (3:27)

Yeah.

Marc (3:27)

It was like deep into 300s.

Joe (3:29)

That's not too bad. I mean, I got 43, so, and the average is 45 So if you got 39, I mean, it's not too far off it. And then I've seen some, I saw one which was 10

And then you look at the team and it's insane. It's like really good players because it's got like Palmer, Groves, that kind of thing. So it's got loads of zeros and ones and minus ones, but good players or rather, you know, not problem players, put it that way.

Yeah. But yeah, we move on.

Marc (3:59)

We do. Well, I think not only was that a bad week, it's just it's becoming more apparent that this week, that the original Wild Card 9 plan would have been even better. You know, like the original plan to do it now would have been great because a few events have happened. Yeah. Let's just hope doing it a week early doesn't derail the season too much.

Joe (4:20)

No, I mean, I think so. There's a video and podcast coming out, I think on Thursday. No, I think it will be Thursday morning, which will be the Defqon Deep Dive show I do. And I did a mock up wild card in there because something myself and Tom were talking about was, Tom Hadley that is, we were talking about the shifting template. And I'm going to book in a wild card for 11 now. And I feel, I feel okay for 9 and 10 My team is fine and I can just use a couple of transfers really to get, like Konzer next week, or replacing Pedro this week with Jackson, that kind of thing.
