Dazed and Confused

What this episode covers

In an episode that is part rock 'n' roll and part festive special, Matt and Nick talk about their respective game week 16s as well as the Premier League fixtures ahead.In perhaps what is the low point of his season, Matt recounts how more poor decision making cost him 17 points this week. While he admits that he did consider resigning as Manager of Team Pod after benching Lewis Hall and missing out on his plethora of points whilst playing Rayan Aït-Nouri who "achieved" a -2, Matt has resolved to do better in the second half of the season. He has started his recovery by choosing the Gianni Butticè Podcast as his pod of the week.With celebrity fan Robert Palmer being in the stands at the Molineux to witness Wolves' capitulation against Ipswich, the brothers squeeze in as many Led Zeppelin puns into the episode as possible. You will be Dazed and Confused by the end of it! Matt also persists with his Pep Guardiola impression as he empathises with City's own run of bad form.Conversely, Nick continues to put in strong performances as Manager of Team Tok and, in response to Matt's admission that he may need to take in more stats and spreadsheets to turn his season around, he details his approach by stating: "I watch TikTok's, I drink vodka and I'm winning!"With Matt needing some kind of Christmas miracle to turn his season around, he sees an opportunity with the long-awaiting Mystery Chip being revealed as the Assistant Manager Chip. The brothers analyse this new asset which will be available from game week 24. Will this provide the much needed boost for Matt and Team Pod?With the lads still waiting on their podcast music, the interludes in this week's show are provided by the SAS Choir and features renditions of "God Rest You, Merry Gentlemen" (00:00), "Es ist ein Rose Entrsprungen" (6:52), "Hark!
