On today's episode of the pod, Stateside Abroad rates the best and worst of the Premier League season so far with a series of awards including best player, best signing, and biggest surprise. Plus, we discuss how much our pre-season predictions for the league would change if we could revise them before updating the standings in the race for the prestigious Paul Pogba Memorial Trophy. But first, we preview all the World Cup qualifying action in CONMEBOL with Stateside Abroad's picks and predictions for all ten teams on the road to Qatar.

If you enjoyed this episode and the less technical nature of it given the lack of tangible PL action to talk about, please give the show a positive review and tweet us with topics you'd like to hear discusses on the upcoming episodes.
