Listen "GW 23: What Is a Game in Hand, Anyway?"
Episode Synopsis
As Liverpool and Everton’s double gameweek gets ever closer, we really drill into the question of who our third Liverpool asset should be—and note the use of the word “asset” instead of “player,” because that asset, other than Díaz, Gakpo, or Konaté, could very well be Arne Slot! As for Everton? Jacob brings up the point that if the “extra” Liverpool game didn’t exist, we wouldn’t be talking about Everton assets at all—and “extra” is in quotes because, well, is there really that much value added when the game is against Liverpool? This leads us to consider the more macro question: What is a game in hand, anyway? How would our perception change if Everton’s “original” fixture were against Liverpool and their “extra” fixture were against Leicester?
