00:00Here are three weirdly specific predictions for this weekend's Premier League action.
00:04The best Premier League story of 2026 so far was Anthony Gordon finally cutting his hair.
00:09I'm not against a man bun, but this was not a good one. Dominic Soberslay's however,
00:14wow. The cameras repeatedly catch Gordon admiring the Hungarians' locks throughout the first half
00:19of Liverpool versus Newcastle, with the winger even squaring up to Soberslay at one point
00:24to ask how long the awkward growing his hair out phase lasted for him and whether it's worth doing
00:29during the summer rather than during the season. Gordon comes out for the second half sporting a
00:34pathetic attempt at a return for his own man bun, gets audibly laughed at by Arnest Slott,
00:39that's rich mate, and ends up getting booked for a lash out off the ball on Van Dijk for the second
00:43time this season. He rocks up to the Etihad on Wednesday with a buzz cut. Shame.
00:48Hi there, this is current day Oli editing this video. The next prediction was going to be that
00:53Jean-Philippe Metteta was going to score for Nottingham Forest against Palace. Whether he was
00:57playing for Palace or Nottingham Forest, he's going to be playing for neither of them because
01:01he's rejected us both. This is now the Jean-Philippe Metteta doesn't want to play for us derby,
01:05not the European one. So instead, Brennan Johnson is scoring his first goal for Palace
01:10against Nottingham Forest, the team where he started his career. He is sliding in at the back
01:14post on the right-hand side at the Forest end. He's going to get up, not put his hands up,
01:19just look directly down, spit on the floor, get crowded by his teammates, and then turn to the
01:25Forest fans and clap. Thanks. Spurs are beating Man City. I told myself I wouldn't predict teams
01:31to win or lose anymore, starting this weekend, but come on. This is Tottenham we're talking about.
01:37They're on a dire run of form. City are hunting down their rivals Arsenal in the title race,
01:43but their record against City is nonsensically good, as is Thomas Franks. It's the most nailed
01:48on 2-1 win ever, with Conor Gallagher forcing a late City mistake and tapping into an empty net,
01:54turning to the corner flag, ready to go mental over a huge win, just to see the utter disgust
02:01in Tottenham fans' eyes. What have you done, Conor? There are no winners here.
