50: Trent, Frimpong, and Colin Firth

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents! This week, we're looking at how Liverpool can survive without Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, and Mohamed Salah. What do the they bring to Slot's team? What do Liverpool need to prioritise in their replacements? And what could the next iteration of the Reds look like?

49: Amorim, ten Hag, and Jilly Cooper

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents! Manchester United finally sacked Erik ten Hag, so we discuss where it went wrong for him at Old Trafford, and what we think of United’s next coach Ruben Amorim. What has attracted the club to him? Who could benefit from his coaching, and who might struggle? Then it’s the Burn Book, with Christmas sandwiches, Puritanism around kids, and Turkey teeth.

48: Van de Ven, Big Ange, and Seth Cohen

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents, where this week we’re covering your questions, starting off with Tottenham. Are they actually good? Should we put more stock in their excellent stats, or in their Spursy performances? We look at Big Ange’s tactical shortcomings, the team’s pressing, and key transfer needs and targets for January. Then it’s the Burn Book, with decorative pillows, Chappell Roan, and the return of all-time hottie Adam Brody. If you enjoy the podcast, consider subscribing at Patreon.com/patrickvs!

47: Maresca, Palmer, and Don Draper

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This week we’re checking in on Chelsea after their statement win over Brighton. How have the Blues played so far, and what separates them from the top teams? Just how good is Cole Palmer? And what is the one thing Maresca needs to work on if he wants to succeed at Stamford Bridge? Then it’s the Burn Book, with main characters, spying on neighbours, and personalised skincare.

46: Kompany, Raphinha, and Seneca the Younger

Hey everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This week, we're talking through the new Champions League format - what's good and what's bad. Then we get into the major European contenders for the competition, taking Real Madrid's left-side bias, Barcelona's weirdly incredible start, and the total mystery that is Kompany's Bayern. Then it's the Burn Book, with queueing in bars, Stoicism, and Light Outerwear Season.  Thanks for your support, and if you don't already, consider subscribing at patreon.com/patrickvs!

45: Martinelli, Diallo, and Nicholas Sparks

Hello everyone, we’re back for another episode, and after swearing we wouldn’t do a preview, we did one. But while we naturally predict the PL winner - and disagree - we also talk through some more intriguing topics. Which top four team do we expect to disappoint us this season? Which mid-table player do we think is primed to become a superstar? And which Arsenal player is on his redemption tour? Then we’ve got the Burn Book, with barbeques, Pete’s love for musicals, and vegetable haters. Thanks for listening, and please consider subscribing at Patreon for extra episodes!

44: Yoro, Smith Rowe, and Jimmy Stewart

What’s up everyone and welcome back to another episode of the Unseen Incidents podcast! This week we are successfully avoiding the usual Premier League preview and instead discussing our most loved and hated transfers of the summer. What are Chelsea actually trying to accomplish with their big moves, and how do these contradict their other business under Boehly/Eghbali? Can Fulham get younger and better without a stint in the Championship? Plus we talk Yoro and de Ligt at Manchester United. Then it’s the Burn Book, with destroying period architecture, upgrading your life, and Letterboxd. Thanks for listening, and consider subscribing at patreon.com/patrickvs!

43: Slot, Szoboszlai, and Alfred Hitchcock

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This time we’re previewing Liverpool, who face arguably the biggest change this off-season as they enter a post-Klopp world. We discuss how Arne Slot will set up, why he’s a good and bad fit for the Reds, and how he might use the players at his disposal - as well as the positions Liverpool need to target in the remainder of the window to maintain their standing. Then we open up the Burn Book, which this week features day-drinking, co-ords, and Alfred Hitchcock.

42: Southgate, Yamal, and Connell from Normal People

The Unseen Incidents podcast is back after Pete’s honeymoon and we’re discussing the Euros so far. England fans are fuming at their side’s boring football, but what simple tweaks can Southgate make to improve the setup, and why are they still favoured to win the tournament? How have Spain surprised us? Are France even better than expected? Then we’ve got the Burn Book, with gold chains, toplessness, and the middle finger.

41: Sesko, Eze, and Keir Starmer

What’s up everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents! On this week’s show, we are discussing the transfer rumours already flying with 23/24 barely done. Benjamin Sesko has been linked with a £45m switch to Arsenal, but how might he improve on Gabriel Jesus, and what are the concerns in his numbers? Would Crysencio Summerville make sense for Liverpool, and what can we learn from his great season in the Championship? And then there’s Spurs’ reported interest in Eberechi Eze, coming off a fantastic season. We look into Glasner’s use of him, and why that might work (or not work) for Tottenham. Plus the Burn Book, with grown-up politics, folding bikes, and the colour blue. If you enjoy the podcast, consider subscribing at patreon.com/patrickvs!

40: Reus, McKenna, and Jean-Ralphio

Hello, it’s another episode of Unseen Incidents! This week Pete and Patrick look ahead to the Champions League final no-one can predict, between the champions of Spain and the fifth-best team in Germany. What hope is there for Dortmund? Then it’s Poch’s Chelsea exit. Why should the Blues be scared? What is the task for the next boss? And why might McKenna be a better bet than a safe pair of hands? Then it’s the Burn Book, with well-dressed kids, sunscreen, and improv comedy. If you enjoy the show, consider supporting us on Patreon! Head to Patreon.com/patrickvs for special bonus episodes.

39: Don Carletto, Palmer, and Turtle from Entourage

What’s up everyone and welcome back to Unseen Incidents! With the end of the season almost within reach, we take a look back at 2023/24 to ask what we learned. We’ve got players we were wrong about, a Klopp retrospective, more Manchester United misery, and some appreciation for Carlo Ancelotti’s sweater vest. Then it’s the Burn Book, with biltong, VPNs (sponsor us), and sneakerhead pervert culture. Thanks for listening, and consider supporting us at patreon.com/patrickvs!

38: Garnacho, Isak, and A$AP Rocky

Hello and welcome back to the Unseen Incidents podcast! We took an extra week of holiday so Pete could get married, but now we’re back and answering your questions. This time, that means swapping clubs, as I set out to fix Manchester United and Pete tries to take Arsenal to the next level. We talk managers, tactics, and, of course, summer signings, as well as the state of Marcus Rashford, before we open up the Burn Book, which this week features memes, work on your phone, and snacks.

37: Frenkie, Amadou, and Mike Israetel

Hey and welcome back to the Unseen Incidents podcast. We look ahead to the most important event of the season, Pete’s wedding, including his form as he heads into that key fixture with Jess. Then we turn to your questions, discussing some players who could fill holes at the Prem’s big six, including midfielders for Arsenal and Manchester United, and a forward for Tottenham. Then it’s the Burn Book, with shoe sizing, the gym, and work sickos. If you’d like to hear more from us, subscribe at Patreon.com/patrickvs.

36: Kroos, Upamecano, and St Patrick

Hello and welcome back to Unseen Incidents, where this week we are taking on the draw for the UCL quarter-finals. The four best teams left in the competition are all on one side, but how do we see Arsenal-Bayern and City-Real Madrid playing out? And with the winner of Barcelona-PSG facing an easy semi, could one of them actually sneak a Champions League trophy? Then we’ve got the Burn Book, with “St Paddy’s Day”, Netflix queues, and cardigans. Subscribe at Patreon.com/patrickvs for extra episodes!

35: Xavi, Tuchel, Dexter and Emma

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This week we're following up our Liverpool episode with a look at Bayern Munich and Barcelona, who will also both be looking for new coaches this summer.  How do Barca's finances affect their search? What do we make of Xavi’s work there? And, after disposing of Tuchel, where do Bayern go if they can't land Alonso?  Then it's the Burn Book, with sneezing, awkwardness, and pub food.

34: Mbappe, Rashford, and George Osborne

We’re back for another episode of the Unseen Incidents podcast, and this week we’re following up the Kylian Mbappe news with a discussion of his move to Real Madrid and PSG’s post-superstar prospects. How does this affect their squad-building? Are Osimhen, Rashford, or Leao good solutions? What does the next decade look like for the Parisiens? Then we’ve got the Burn Book, with side-sleeping, the sugar tax, and gym hogs.

33: Klopp, Alonso, and Captain Winters

Welcome back to the Unseen Incidents podcast! We’re a week late this time due to me having another baby but now I’m back to coparent our audience with Pete. We’re taking stock of the Liverpool situation, after Klopp announced his summer departure. What sort of squad has he been building? Why might Liverpool’s style be an issue long-term? And what do we think of the principal candidates for the job: Alonso, Nagelsmann, Zidane, etc? After that, it’s the return of the Burn Book, with office dogs, Band of Brothers, and rugby.

32: Salah, Kudus, and James Joyce

Hello and welcome to the Unseen Incidents podcast, where this week we’re answering your questions! First up we have our predictions for the year ahead, including Premier League and Champions League winners, the coming summer’s headline transfers, and surprise teams on the up. Then we turn our attention to the Premier League midtable, and ask how high teams like West Ham, Brentford, and Brighton can aim. Is Villa’s success replicable? What did Leicester teach us? We also spend a bit of time on the Irons, trying to figure out if they’re a crap team who seem good, or a good team who seem crap. Then it’s the Burn Book, with dry January, toastie specials, and the police. If you don’t subscribe, consider joining us for $6 a month at patreon.com/patrickvs!

31: Rice, Havertz, and Gary Lineker

Hello and welcome to the Unseen Incidents podcast, where this week we’re bringing forward our customary late-season Arsenal-bottling episode. The Gunners are on a run of 3 losses in 5, and have seen their title chances drop to almost zero in the betting markets. But how was the Villa loss different from the West Ham and Fulham ones? How can xG help us understand, and how is it lying? We dig into Arteta’s mistakes and the players at fault. Then it’s the Burn Book, with crisps, leaving early, and slurs.
