| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to this special Sky Sports Football podcast where we're looking at who deserves a place in the Premier League team of the season. |
| 0:16.5 | Along with this podcast, there will be features, analysis and pundit opinion running on the Sky Sports website and app throughout the course of the week from Monday, 6th of April, and throughout that week we'll be asking you to select your best 11 as well. Now, those of you who were listening last week would have heard us focusing on the player of the season prize. There was huge debate over whether Henderson, DeBreiner or Marnay should take top spot. In the end, after over 50,000 of you voted on the Sky Sports website, Marnay emerged as the winner just ahead of Henderson. I wonder how many Liverpool players will be in your team of this season. I'm Peter Smith, the Sky Sports Football Features Editor and joining me to kick the debate off a Sky Sports Football journalist, Lewis Jones. Lewis, how are you? Yes, doing well in good |
| 0:55.3 | form, Pete. Good to speak to you. Good, good. We've also got Ron Walker on the line. Ron, how's things? |
| 0:59.7 | Yeah, very good. Thank you. Very good. Good. Good. How are you keeping busy? |
| 1:04.3 | Oh, Netflix doesn't know what's hit it, to be honest. Yeah, Lewis, crashing through the box sets. |
| 1:10.1 | Well, yeah, there's been plenty of lockdown highs, lows, but mostly mediocre moments while we just sit on our hands and wait for some positive news regarding when football is going to start again, I think. |
| 1:23.0 | Yeah, yeah, it's according to Premier League meeting on Friday, suspended indefinitely. |
| 1:29.4 | It feels like it's a long way off. |
| 1:31.4 | But what we can do is we look back at what we've had already this season |
| 1:34.3 | because plenty of good matches to reflect on, plenty of good performances to reflect on. |
| 1:39.3 | And not really easy to pick a team of the season. |
| 1:41.9 | I think we've all had a crack through this morning |
| 1:44.5 | to try and whittle it down to 11. Not easy. I'm sure there'll be a bit of debate. So let's get |
| 1:48.8 | into it then. Lewis, just kick us off. Then goalkeeper, who's your number one of the season so far? |
| 1:55.4 | Well, yeah, I found this one of the, probably the most complicated to work out, really, in terms of |
| 2:00.5 | picking a standout |
| 2:01.5 | goalkeeper because I was trying to sort of calculate how many points a goalkeeper has won |
| 2:06.9 | for their side and it's actually quite hard to quantify that but I sort of tried to engage my |
| 2:13.1 | brain to remember sort of the big moments that certain goalkeepers produced over the |
| 2:17.8 | season. |
| 2:18.2 | And the one that stood out to me was Nick Pope at Burnley, who's been, yeah, he's been a huge |
| 2:26.3 | player for Burnley for the last sort of 18 months or so. |
