S4 Ep8: Watkins, Semenyo, and Davis Clarke

Hey everyone, and welcome to another episode of Unseen Incidents! Today we’re using a listener question about Ollie Watkins’ drop-off this season to look at three players struggling for form, and another, Antoine Semenyo, whose underlying stats are not matching up to his real goal and assist numbers. Which one is a better representation of the player, and what do we make of his rumoured £65m buyout? And how much can team effects be blamed for the issues facing Watkins, Isak, and others, and how much is down to them?

Then we open the Burn Book, this week featuring standing ovations, bow-ties, and Barbour jackets.
