What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Welcome to the Goals on Sunday podcast. Thanks for listening. Our two guests today obviously were Ashley Barnes and Chris Wood from Burley, who were fantastic, Alex. But we had so much to talk about today, didn't we?
We did. It was fun. Lots of VAR drama, as always.
What insights do Ashley Barnes and Chris Wood share about Burnley's recent win?
You talking about set plays.
Yeah.
It was a good one.
Great to see you. It's a first for goals on Sunday. Two strikers, or two players, who have actually scored the previous day. Thank you for coming on. No problem.
We made it easy for you. Don't worry.
What do you think of Jose Mourinho going to Spurs?
Wow. He's a top-class manager and going in at a good club and things like that. So it'll probably be a good fit. But it'll be something different that he's never had to work with before. Maybe not as much money as he's used to and things like that. So he'll have to use his squad wisely. But he's got a great squad there.
What about you Ash?
Yeah I think obviously a top manager you know it'll be interesting to see how he gets on there like Chris said topped on there obviously with the money situation he's always had the funds to spend but this is going to be obviously to see if he can get the best out of the players first and obviously I think He's a great manager, obviously, we all know that, but to get everything out of them, I think it'll be a good show.
Can you understand why results have been indifferent this season?
Yeah, it's not nice to obviously see a manager sacked, but obviously results speak for itself, and obviously if you're one of the big boys, you need to be picking up results, and unfortunately I don't think they've won away from home for a while, so it was a great win for them yesterday.
Yeah.
I think a lot of chat coming off of that game yesterday, Cammy, was it was nice to see players back playing in their positions like Ali, like how you just mentioned, more. Do you think that's the key for them going forward, to get the best out of those players?
Yeah, and Eriksen came on as a substitute as well. So there's a lot of players out of contract there, big players as well. And if Jose can satisfy them and keep them happy and maybe re-sign them, then resurgent Spurs again.
What are the implications of Jose Mourinho's appointment at Tottenham Hotspur?
Exactly, and they could be the force that they were once before and the team that they made to the Champions League final. So hopefully they'll get back to what they're good at because it's nice seeing them play when they're on top form.
We've had a text from the gaffer. Sean Dice's text is in and said, where is it? Let me try and find it. He says, tell him to stop saying obviously on every answer. And he said also tell him it's good feedback and part of his development.
Obviously he's watching. LAUGHTER I'm sure he has something bad to do than sit on the couch and watch this.
Hey, what are you talking about? It's a great show!
LAUGHTER
Obviously it is. Right, this is really interesting. Last Saturday, two weeks ago, wasn't it, before the international break, Chris Wilder was our guest, right? And we were talking when we went for a cup of tea after the show. Right. And he told me something that I didn't know. And my apologies to VAR and everybody else. I'm holding my hands up. I did not know this because it's ridiculous, right? And how ridiculous it is, is if I'm the defender, right, and I play you onside with my arm, it doesn't count. It's going to go from my armpit. Did you know this?
See, I only found this out about two, three weeks ago and told Barnsley this morning about it because we never got told anything like that or in any of the meetings that it was from the arm gets taken off both ways.
From the defender's armpit, yeah?
Yeah.
But if it hits the defender and goes in the back of the net off his arm, it's a goal.
It's not a penalty. Exactly. That's why the lines are a bit blurred at the moment where it can be onside or it can't be offside and things like that. Or, as you say, if it hits your arm as a defender and goes in, they're going to give it as a goal.
They're going to give it as a goal. And the reason why we're talking about this, let's have a look at it, because Kurt Zouma is playing Raheem Sterling onside with his arm, but his armpit is level.
