Loved the show and location today. Need to do these more often. MG
You could add a United players to the La Liga team of the season.
Dalot? Bruno? Shaw? De Gea? 😂😂😂
Gold bridge is a clown, 4 united players, and two Arsenal ones, and Arsenal are 11 points ahead with a game in hand lol, Partey over Casemiro any day, Zinchenko over Shaw anyday, and Saliba over Varane or Botman anyday, and Martinelli with a strong shout over Rashford, lol what has he played well for a month, Martinelli has been consistent all season, joke of a team really
'Rashford out' you donut. Talk about reactionary fans 🤦🏽♂
@Gooner 72 theres no shouting over but they picked 2 players from arsenal. Mark thinks United have best winger best lb best cbs best dm but yet there 4th talk about delusions
Great show with Ben mate, I like the fact that there's no shouting over each other which is a refreshing change.
I was expecting to be upset with Mark after this but the ex-professional footballer saying Kane at RW and Mitrovic at LW would work in real life is absolutely mental 🤣
well mandzukic play on the wing for sometime and it work
Lol 😆
If you listened he said it doesn’t matter about the positions. He said it’s like FPL where the positions don’t matter
Lol goalkeepers aren’t ever managers for a reason
@Keymouse Board Yeah but it wasn't. They reiterated multiple times that it's 4-3-3.
Ben with some shocking takes this episode!
loved where he said "you could tell he'd be good, lot of money etc." about the Odegaard signing... he cost them 30m..
Some outstandingly dreadful takes where he’d than laugh at mark for even suggesting a player/manager that is probably the most popular or second most popular choice for 99% of fans
Mark's face at 24:55 when Ben's saying Rashford is a striker is hilarious 😂 you can see him calling Ben a Turbo Pratt in his head
ahahah i noticed that
He was dying inside
How does Ben, an ex professional footballer, not know how a 4-3-3 works lol
🤣🤣🤣
I'm still shocked
Tells you why he’s a goalkeeper
Arsenal top of the league with one of the best PL starts of all time and only 2 players in the team is criminal.
@Alfie Cunningham he put Rashford ahead of Saka
If Mark got all his choices it would have been 5 Arsenal players.
The GK didn't give Mark a lot of room to work with and Mark, as any loyal fan, did the right thing choosing the players he did.... especially with how good Man Utd has done this year.
The only problem is choosing 2 slow striker on the wings, which is ridiculously dumb 😭 who's this guy?
And look, Mark gave a somewhat slightly logical reason why he didn't choose Zinchenko and Saliba.
And this is coming from an Arsenal fan.
@Alfie Cunningham I'm United fan and he is biased af
@Malcolm Rhodes mark goldbridge wasn't biased
Ben has that friendly vibe to him that makes you wanna have a pint or two. Amazing guy and such good chemistry with Mark, this show can go on and we'd always want more.
Saka HAS to be in. Imagine Saka, Halaand, and Rashford upfront. They'd have 250 goals a season. 😂
@Ethio Zare ኢትዮ ዛሬ one bad seaso and he is not good ok
Eww
Mate that’s not how football works😭
Can't argue with 16 goals 5 assists
Halaand= 200 goals
Rashford & Saka= 50 goals between them.
for me, Alisson not even getting a shout for GK of the season is astonishing, he’s the only liverpool player that has deserved to wear the badge and has kept them in games doubtlessly countless times, just crazy to me.
Absolute shocker from Ben…”3 strikers”a Good thing you didn’t go into management buddy😂 good content
Im not an Arsenal fan but shows you how good a team they are, not made up of superstar individuals. In the conversation for every position but not necessarily the top player in each position.
love the change of scenery! for those of us not in the UK, it's cool to see backdrops from Ben's locale. Keep that up!
amazing episode, the partnership no one thought we needed but i cant live without it now
No Saka and Saliba is shocking
I think no Saka is a disgrace but saliba missing out is alright
@Charlie a disgrace😂🤣 same g/a this season but rashford with more goals. I can see a debate but it being a “disgrace” for a united fan to pick a united player in a coin toss is such an arsenal fan take hahaha
@Charlie saka is playing on the right you donut 😂 i agree there is no RW as good as saka this season but in the LW there is rashford and foden
Gk - Raya
Rb - Trippier
Cb - Saliba
Cb - Botman
Lb - Shaw
Mid - Ødegaard
Mid - Partey
Mid - Casemiro
LW - Rashford
ST - Halaand
RW - Saka
Kane should be in here somewhere and same goes for Almiron but tough decisions
no lisandro martinez is shocking. don't really care who goes next to him, wouldn't mind saliba. but licha should be in there no doubt.
Saka not being in your team of the season, with you both being respected in this field is absolutely wild
Back when City & Liverpool were first and second in the Prem, people couldn't make a TOTS with players from any other team, now Arsenal are top by 5 points & a game in hand and they're struggling to get any in!! 🤯
@Nero Claudius I'd argue Ramsdale because there's no stat he tops but yea, I wouldn't complain about that. Just don't get why people think there's an anti-arsenal bias. The team is top because every player is playing well, not because 1 or 2 have been unbelievable
@Magikarp Splashy Im gonna put 4 or 3 Arsenal Players , ramsdale , saka , Oodegard thats it for RW rashford and foden is better than martineli ,striker you know who is , midfield , Casemiro ofc and one again is guimares or palhinha and Oodegard , back 4 Shaw Martinez Gabriel and trippier , is that fair enough?
@Luka well name your team of the season then instead of moaning... how many Arsenal players do you put in?
It's clearly anti Arsenal bias and hatred. You'd think United and Newcastle were fighting for the title by the way these guys are talking.
Mark and Ben work really well together could listen to you 2 all day...Good banter lads
For LB I honestly would lean toward Estupinan from Brighton, lad’s been unbelievable
Estupiñan has been pretty consistent and quite good at LB for Brighton. Guy never stops running.
Front three has to be Rashford, Haland and Saka no way you do three strikers hahaha. Solid content lads!
Easiest pick of the lot
Totally agree
Easily them three.
Loved watching this but I wish they done a team each. And see how they differ, then build one team from both.
Now we know how players think and vote, which explains a lot of the horrible nominations and some wins in the past (one example being Son not nominated for player of the year even though he won the golden boot). Three CFs, good luck with that! Kinda reminds you of Solskjaer logic of picking his midfield.
Football fill in is actually interesting & fun to watch . First time on here.🔥
put your guy's team in football manager and play each other in a home and away tie, would love to see how the team somewhat plays. Got my money on Goldbridge
You know it’s bad when goldbridge is talking more sense than the ex pro 😂
😭😭
How is Saka not in this team 😫😫
@IAmSAMU3Lx Rodrigo has more goals than Rashford. If you wanna just use goals
@IAmSAMU3Lx Why you just going off goals… swear you people don’t watch football outside of United so don’t have a clue 🤣
@Kon Think you’re just a delusional United fan. Just because Arsenal have shared goals between Martinelli, Odegaard, Nketiah and Saka… obviously goals will be less. Dumb take
@Kon You’re making such a stupid and unfair comparison when you look at Arsenals upfront and division of goals compared to United
@IAmSAMU3Lx gabriel maghalaes has more goals than Sancho guess that makes him the better winger
Ben and Mark together are the ultimate dream team! 🤷🏻😆
After watching casemeiro at old Trafford and seeing that pass to martial tonight, casemeiro has to be in team of the season if things carry on such an underrated player when at real Madrid but is strutting his stuff at united
Since when do I agree with Mark! “All holding hands in the 6 yard box fighting over a tap in”
Shocking Ben
Great episode guys. The Man Utd bias is strong here though! And you can't NOT include Saka, he's been on fire and arguably the closest player to Haaland this season!
Fozzie’s selections up front are hilarious
Unforgiveable not having Saka
Love the content with Mark. Great video.
8:35 Goldbridge's Golden Moments😂
I’m actually shocked that Ben Mee didnt make it into your CB picks for me he’d be on my team of the season and the second spot would be between Saliba or Botman
I think the Varane pick is a bit of a homer pick but I agree that Case is unbelievable
I really happy to see Foster with Goldbridge. They are really look like old friends 😂
@Sachin Paul That’s pretty obviously not true, you’re just hating on another man’s success for absolutely no reason. Grow up.
@Sachin Paul hahah what a salty guy. Goldbridge has ball knowledge, certainly a lot more than you. Love seeing people jealous of Marks success😂
@Lj G* : lol man has clearly not seen football before 2013. Whenever he speaks about old games, it’s clear that he’s reading off a Wikipedia page
Goldbridge has “ball knowledge” ? Biggest joke ever
How has Saka not made this team 😂
As a united fan, I totally agree Saka should be one of the first names on any teamsheet he's always been class but this season he's really come of age.
The Sean Dyche always gets me😭
Mark was alot smarter in this team, he had the perfect front three
I have the same team as you instead I have Dalot instead of Trippier BARELY but not mad at it. I have KDB over Xhaka, I feel like when city don’t have him the have no spark in the midfield which they normally have and without Bernardo playing either we just don’t have it. But I’d go Bruno G if we’re going by your nominations. Then Saka for Kane as much as kane deserves to be in he isn’t getting in over Haaland and also he isn’t a winger which is who should be playing on the right of the attack not kane.
Fucking love that Bentancur shout from Goldbridge, my respect has gone up 100%. I was terrified nobody was gonna mention him
Ben having Kane above Saka is beyond me
@Jallen2000 Rashford plays on the left, his inclusion doesn't affect Saka who plays on the right. There's no other option than saka on the right.
@FMJIf we’re talking about the positioning, then yeah Saka ig because Kane isn’t a right winger lol, but Kane has definitely been better this season
Love it when City gets underestimated. Makes it even more sweeter when we win the league yet again
@ImmortalSteel541 Kane has been doing that for seasons
When has that Spurs team ever not been shit
@Jallen2000 Exactly. It’s supposed to be a team of the season but most of the picks are players who have been in form for a month only
Ben Foster showing us why most players cant be managers
I love you guys together. I love how both your egos collided towards the end - I could literally SMELL the sexual tension 😆. No in all fairness, love you both for keeping it real ❤️
Football fill in is a perfect watch when you’re a neutral fan
Arsenal fan here, completely no issues with the back 4 and the mid, maaaybe even the GK since Aaron had a few shaky games, but the forward had to be Rashford / Haland / Saka .... Goldbridge was bang on with the team
Fozzy's tee is sauce by the way. Arigatou 2014, probably from the Japan Trip? Love the Fill-in mate...You absolute legends.
That Kane pick is really grinding my gears 😭
@Oliver Jenord that's why we all agreed that statistics mean very little in football
He’s been unreal this season. Don’t count him out cause Spurs are awful. It’s so far. When the Trophies start getting handed out the team could look totally different
He has to be in, world class and had a fantastic season so far 🤷🏻♂️
Joe Hewitt clearly a Kane hater
I agree Halland is on a cheat code with city...if Kane was on city he would have 20 goals and 15 assists by now easy.
Fozzy and Goldbridge is a Duo that I never knew I needed but glad I have it
I see how you roll, Ben. - All Arsenal fans
No saka is just outrageous, unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!
Its always funny how underrated our players are even after winning 4 out of the last 5 seasons, Pep really must be the GOAT
As soon as they put varane in the team I knew this was going to be a shocker
Mark brought his team of the season and Ben brought his players of the season
Its good to see an ex footballer with some actual insite and willing to put a bit of real news out there. Nothing to scandalous to worry the ex team mates but keeps it interesting.
Ramsdale
Shaw, Saliba, Varane, Trippier
Casemiro, Odegard, De Bruyne
Rashford, Haaland, Saka
Mark saying what’s Harry Kane done this season after having varane is as the best cb 😂😂😂
Lol this really felt like a game of how many United players can we put into this side
Damn y'all were spot on about Pep not trusting Cancelo, he literally JUST got loaned to Bayern for the rest of the season.
Ben has added attackers and midfielders for his midfielders is funny 😂😂
How Saliba doesn't make that back four is beyond me
@The Vision definitely upped his game this year and well worth a mention
As an Arsenal who watches every game. Gabriel has just edged me over Saliba this year. Real close though .
@hhammer Sorry but your implication that singular players can’t make a difference in Arsenal is just stupid. People keep arguing like it’s a binary choice of individual performance/team performance. You can have standout players and still be in a brilliant team as a whole… why people thinking like it’s got to be one or the other is just weird
Because 2 better cbs were chosen 🤷♂️
Because he has performed to the top level. And as they said could easily be ramsdale as they both have been superb.
By your logic we should have nketia or Jesus over Haaland.
Joelinton is very important, he should have gone to the world cup as he is Fred, Richarlison and Paqueta in one, press machine, wins headers and has scored 3 with 3 Assists so far.
Ben and his formation is finishing me 🤣🤣🤣
Doesn't know difference between Midfielders and wingers
So Mark is playing football manager and Ben is playing FPL 🤣🤣🤣
Marks bias towards Newcastle is hilarious 🤣 rattled and it's class to see
lol - Enjoyed that lads, can see the logic in both your arguments, Fozzy is going for the traditional best 11, formation is not important, Marks thinking about an actual balance of the team. Makes for an interesting argument. Saka should have been in there regardless.
To only have 2 arsenal players in bens team is criminal
@JustAGunner🇿🇦 over Xhaka and Odegaard then? Idk about that…
@Travis. bro theres another spot in the midfield
@JustAGunner🇿🇦 Casemiro has been better than partey. The other two I agree
It is considering where we are saka partey gabriel should be there
I prefer gabriel over saliba this season
If anyone else was having de Bruynes season they would definitely be in
Mark is right that you don't put wingers in midfield lol. But he can't help but pick United players whenever you give him a choice. At least you picked Arteta. Between the two of you, this was kind of a mess but that's why we watch.
Mark with common sense 👍 Ben, think you have fallen off your bike a few too many times with that front 3 🤣
These 2 are so easy to watch and listen too !
Marks Sean dyche voice kills me everytime 😂😂
I'm not sure how you can argue that Botman doesn't deserve to be in it, there is a reason Newcastle have 12 clean sheets this season and it's not just down to Pope, having Botman and Schar in front of him has helped massively.
@Kr4zYm0f0 he has the best save percentage so that screws your argument
@TheAussieMag what does your goal difference have to do with how many shots people make on your goal? pope is ranked 16th for average shots stopped per game so saying hes overrated is the right conclusion. if he was in the top 5 i would agree hes good but right noiw its the defence that is winning those cleansheets and not pope.
@Kr4zYm0f0 We have a 22+ goal difference, youre making shit up you have watched none of our season
@Rimon Yup its a crap league.. this crappy Newcastle getting 3rd.. this league is finished. Bring on the super league!
@Rimon 3rd place in the prem? Aye proper shite us mate.
zinchenko is defo gonna end up as the best LB if he stays fit that guy is a beast
Rodrigo and Tyler adams not even being mentioned is criminal
"ARE YOU TRYING TO GET KANE ON PODCAST?" epic
nice show
Marks ManU bias is unmatched.
I’ve unfortunately been diagnosed with a terminal illness & have been binge watching your channel lately Fozzy. At first I’ll be honest it was to pass a bit of time during treatment but now it’s making my day & time a lot happier. Really enjoy your content. Keep up the great work mate. Up The Cycling GK & Up The FozCast!! 🙌🏼
@Matthew Rayner got a beautiful wife & an amazing little girl. Despite what’s going on with my health, I’m the happiest, most luckiest man alive mate 🤩
Ben cash still, very sad to hear buddy glad you're sounding positive my man 💪
@Matthew Rayner is what it is unfortunately mate. Hope you’re well?
Sorry to hear that pal 😞
FosterBridge is pure entertainment. This is brilliant.
Thanks Will!
Absolutely loving it........☺️😊
That is Arsenal this season in a nutshell. They don't even have any insane stand out players, they're all just fantastic and consistent
Mark done a video on Kane recently.. didn’t check how many goals he had scored so far this year ahAha
Shocking picks.. wth.. Ben’s playing the ”Shorts” game and chasing clips with this one 😂😂
Love how goldbridge has he’s actual 2 choices then slips a Utd player in
Marks argument for Rashford being in there is basically the same for Xhaka too, both gone from near sold to top 3 most important players in their team.
Yea but Rashford would still be in with his form no matter what happened last season. Bens team is an unbalanced mess lol but he was just picking players not a team per say
how varane and shaw are in is crazy
Loved the names been mentioned and appreciation of the sports professionals that we watch weekly, the 11 is opinion not really triggered
Team Goldbridge here as the defence is positional lol and great episode either way but oh dear Ben Foster ha ha
Sean Dyche bit killed me 😂
NAHHHHHH!!!! As soon as mark goldbridge said “I’m going Varane”(12:16) I get a sky sports notification saying varane OG 48’ 😂😂 (against leeds) I’m not even joking I swear on my life
The timing was perfect
Actually can’t believe you picked a team of the year without Saliba, White and Saka. Absolutely criminal. Especially Saka!
@Sudip Paul Incorrect! It was 3-0 before his substitution.
@Sudip Paul The second-most influential for a team fourth in the league. Sounds like a MUST include!
@Sebastian O Nope, when Varane was on the pitch I'm pretty sure the score was 1-0 to City, it crumbled down once he was subbed for Lindelof due to that damn injury (let's not forget we had no games before that derby for like three weeks due to queen's death but City already played a game before the game against United).
@Sebastian O Guess what in most of those matches that you have mentioned over here, who was absent in United's defence?? It's Varane. Whenever he got injured Lisandro looked like a shadow of himself. Varane has been the second most influential player for United this season just behind Casemiro.
... and Saka should also be in over Kane.
Absolutely criminal that Ben Mee hasn’t been mentioned at CB
27:18 why dont you pick all 4 full backs then? or 4 center backs? i agree with the balanced approach
Fozzie and Goldbridge the best X-vid Duo 😂😂
pervis estupinan has to be in the shout, first season for brighton but has been so comfortable, cucurella isnt missed by the seagulls
Absolutely mental way of doing a team of season from Foster there. No wingers, madness.
As an Arsenal fan the keeper was spot on,ramsdale will get englands number one but popes been insane this year although ramsdale has been quality
Not to hate on pope but newcastle play very very defensive. Its succesful so no arguement there but it makes it so much easier for goalies to keep a cleansheet. Ramsdale has seriously been amazing so deserves to be in this team and to be in england.
Ramsdale ain't getting that #1 along as Southgate is in🤣 Pickford and Pope will still be ahead of him. Ramsdale will literally need to pull off the greatest save of all time in a CL final for Southgate to open his eyes
Well done Mark for putting Varane in
To say you were a professional footballer Ben, you’ve had some horrific shouts on this 😂😂😂
Alexis mac Allister is so underrated
