Unseen Incidents with Patrick and Pete

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. By popular demand, we’re bringing back the worst transfer XI this week, building a team of the summer signings we hate most. We like Liam Delap, so why do we hate his switch to Forest? Which 100m midfielder is the worst buy of the year? And what are Real Madrid thinking with their fullbacks?

Then we open up the Burn Book, discussing in-game purchases, underscores’ new album, and the word “chic”.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This week we’re tier-ranking the transfer windows of the Premier League’s big six, asking who has done the best work ahead of the new season. How costly is Arsenal’s lack of star power? Does City’s rebuild actually make them better? How could Chelsea’s front three pose a problem for Alonso? And can Spurs and United push on at all?

Then we open up the burn book, this week discussing sparkling sake, refurbished tech, and locksmiths.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This week we’re looking at Real Madrid’s big summer rebuild and their reappointment of Jose Mourinho. After two years without a trophy, it’s clear that something needed to change, but is this going to fix anything? Is Rodri the solution? Is Diomande a worthy heir to Vini? And is there any way this team can defend at an elite level?

Then we open up the Burn Book, which this week features linen shirts, Classics and the response to The Odyssey, and cleaning leather.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. The summer transfer market has gone crazy, with seemingly every player quoted at £100m or more, so today we’re running through some of the blockbuster moves we might see and asking whether those players are worth the price. Why is everyone thirsting for Julian Alvarez? Is Elliot Anderson as good a prospect as Declan Rice? We look at a raft of wingers, including Rogers, Barcola, El Mala, and Summerville, as well as Newcastle target and Switzerland star Johan Manzambi.

Then we open up the Burn Book, this week discussing hotel nights, new experiences with old friends, and changing barber.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This week we’re looking back at our worst transfer XIs from the autumn, to see what we got wrong and what we got right. How do we judge someone like Gyokeres? Are United fans deluded about Cunha? And is Mateus Fernandes not only good, but worth the £85m West Ham want for him?

Then we open up the Burn Book, this week discussing Instagram art, housework, and pineapple on pizza.

Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Unseen Incidents. This week we’re discussing the controversy surrounding West Ham’s disallowed equaliser against Arsenal, and the dominance of set-pieces in this year’s PL.

And we get into possible ways to fix the problem, from refinements to VAR to wholesale rule changes.

Hey everyone and welcome back to Unseen Incidents! The games are coming fast now, and unfortunately we have to return to Spurs again, to talk about their risky appointment of Roberto de Zerbi. The Italian is undoubtedly talented and has a track record of attractive and effective attacking football, but does he make sense for Tottenham right now? What are the real requirements for a manager aiming to keep a team in the Prem? And what would it take for RDZ to fulfil them?

Then we get into the Burn Book, with short hair, wasting your own time, and reconnecting with old friends.
