Summary

Join Josh and Brandon as we discuss the GW16 highs and lows, including a suboptimal Palmer captaincy, a Lewis Hall haul, and more points from mainstays like Isak and Mbeumo. Plus it was Spurs who put the final nail in Russell Martin's Southampton coffin. Perhaps the weekend was most notable for bringing the Premier League title closer to Chelsea's reach, with the Blues sweeping past Brentford while Liverpool, Arsenal, and Man City (again) all dropped points. But there's a lot of season to play before a trophy is etched, and a hefty chunk of that season is happening in the next 2–3 weeks during the deluge of holiday fixtures. Stay tuned as we look ahead to key transfers and captain picks for GW17, as well, and give our reviews of the newly announced Assistant Manager Chip. Hail Cheaters!
