Tier List: Ranking This Summer's BEST Signings

Things we can learn from the video

Press to jump

0:44The panel begins ranking summer signings from S to D tier.
7:33Konsa's proposed S-tier placement raises the question of whether Jackson sets the right benchmark.
17:11Transfer fees and performance expectations complicate the discussion of Bruno Guimarães and Manzambi.
24:44Lewis revises his initial expectations of Elliot Anderson, whom the panel places in A tier.
25:29Morgan Rogers receives an A after the panel rejects an initial suggestion of S.

Putting a player in S tier creates a problem for everyone ranked after him. Pitch Side's summer-signings discussion finds that out when Ezri Konsa comes up: "If Jackson's in S, Konsa's in S," Theo Baker argues.

Theo, Lewis, Tom Garratt and Reev spend the podcast clip negotiating what actually makes a good signing: performances, playing time, price or expectations. The video includes an app advertisement before the rankings begin. Later, Lewis admits he expected Elliot Anderson to struggle, before the panel puts him in A tier. These lists leave plenty of room for revised opinions, even within the same recording.

"Tier List: Ranking This Summer's BEST Signings" reached roughly 187,000 views, the largest audience among fifteen new uploads. Viewers brought their own selection arguments: Tonali and Van Hecke's placements recur in the comments, while others make the case for a higher tier for Anderson. The debate carries on well beyond the table.

"Our UNDER PERFORMING Premier League XI" supplied another substantial discussion, alongside the predictions show and a Manchester United-Roma live broadcast. The freshest momentum belongs to "GUESS THE PLAYER QUIZ!", with the predictions episode also drawing views faster than the transfer list right now.

Across the channel, the week brought about two million views, while subscribers stayed level. Today's viewing is substantially quieter than Pitch Side's usual daily pace. Among nearby podcast channels, The Daily Heretic had a particularly busy week for views; Out of Character also added subscribers. For Pitch Side, the newest quiz is providing the liveliest finish to a week built around football judgement calls.

What viewers say

Van Hecke in C is a terrible shout, from a Spurs fan. Tonali in C too lads??? Are we serious???

Tonali in C is actually outrageous, his only bad games were the two at the start of the season when the squad was a mess/wasnt fully fit but since then he's been unreal
