And welcome back to the 90th minute. We are your hosts. We got myself Liam Lucas. Greg co-host was is not with us today, but that is more than okay. Yeah. It's a midweek episode as you can tell the table is clear, right? It's going to go for a brief rundown of the midweek fixtures particularly in the Premier League what we're also going to cover some well transfer activity will talk about a London Derby will read watts is thoughts on the Manchester United match. I wonder why was isn't here right now. That wasn't justStill like will talk about the party numb pizza party and Ibiza. But yes, like Lucas said we're going to kick it off with a London Derby Chelsea vs. Arsenal at Stamford Bridge. This game is a bit of a mess. Yeah start to finish just a mess. You could say it's fraudulence. Why is it fraudulent? Both teams are frauds. There's a lot of teams that could be considered frauds this year and primarily but you can say that maybe but 17 clubs potentially, but if we kick off this game, there's a big talking point rather early on we must start with David Luiz David Luiz get since the first turns the Stamford Bridge guys. Yes, and then gets a red card. He's it's not really not his fault. He's sold very short by mistake. It is his fault to some extent for getting a red car booster could have just let it be a goal stuff. He passes back to his keeper but the ball doesn't get any more halfway like halfway to where it needs to be. So definitely wheezes rushing back Tammy Abraham picks up. The ball looks to be clean through on that dive a Louise goes through his back. Oh kind of through the side in my through his back. It's a red card. He Raps like around them. It's a red. Yeah deserving read. Yes. What would have been a goal? Lucas technically, it's yes. Okay. Don't technically it's not a bad challenge or anything. It's just it's a golden opportunity. Yeah, it's time to Abraham. Like I said, he goes through gets taken out the red car for David Luiz he's off after it was a 20 25 minutes. It was in the 26th minute or 20 25 minutes somewhere around there around that moment. But then mr. George in your steps up penalty taker he pops up because losses in the I'm Corner she's very good at penalties. It's only because run-ups I mean apocalypse. This shit is random sort of makes it seem obvious where he's going to go but then the last second he kind of goes other side. No not the other side just places a wall this case and a lot of matches. He doesn't place it that well, but the keeper goes the other way. He yeah, he put it pretty good in the corner. So it was nice into the corner. Like I said, yeah. So one meal Chelsea George, you know what the penalty the game moves on and you know what? I thought Chelsea were a much better team. In the first half. I mean they were deathly dominant on the ball 11 verses 10. What do you expect? I mean, yes, they should be so and arsenal were playing Jacques centre-back the xhaka Mustafa centre-back Perry. I saw a tweet. It was like, wow the entire history of Arsenal Football Club is leading up to this moment arsene Wenger every single player I've ever had. This is the Pinnacle of our civil rights head Martin. Keown Adams Sol Campbell. Full Campbell you've had even kashani was a good player this date to sack of like now xhaka who is a midfielder and mustafi playing Center back in a match because what choices do you have Rob holding who's not better? Like I don't know. He's had injuries. Yeah. It was a rough scenario B in so I mean art had to decide did he want to bring on another defender or did he want to have some of his attacking players on the field? He didn't make a substitution after the red card. You left it. And he's you know, what we're going to try to actually go on and win this game which is, you know, honorable by our tattoo a little bit. Maybe you may think a little stupid but you know, it's something that Arsenal feel they could score goals against Chelsea, so they said let's not sacrifice her goal scoring threat for defense of solidarity. So it's interesting to see but as for the longest time throughout the match just Chelsea had the ball, they they create some chances, but they weren't badly like they weren't they didn't have that killer instinct. They They had I don't know it just wasn't it was a little soft but it's interesting you bring up the words Killer Instinct. That's what Frank Lampard said his side lacked in this game. Was that Killer Instinct that that final kind of that final thing. You can hold on to the ball as long as you want, but if you're not gonna do anything with it, yeah exactly because like you can have a session is good. But possession can be also be bad. If you don't do anything with positive possession. Yeah 55th minute Lucas comes off the field. Mesut Ozil got subbed off. Oh, you are lucky fluke Chelsea have a penalty corner. And then they don't the ball goes the length of the field right up the middle Martinelli. So it gets a little lucky who was this a saloon girl alcalde had a Steven Gerrard moment and go look at they that yeah, he does slip EG moment, right? That's the thing. I saw was like you laugh at that Chelsea player for slipping then you find out it's in goal of wanting to feel bad. Yeah, but yeah cantus left Center Circle Martinelli's through on goal one on one with the keeper very calmly and coolly Slots at home. Yeah. Is this the man Arsenal can rely on? For the next few years. I don't know because I've only seen such small samples of him. He scored a lot of goals in all competitions outside the Premier League, but this is a chance he should be taking he seems like a decent towel though. He's got Pace. He's got size. You got some strength to him. He seems to be able to take a Finnish been inconsistent though. He has but he is still a young player. I think Arsenal in general being inconsistent, but there's someone that maybe they can look that as a hey, we're not you know, if Ami and lacazette are not able would have we have at least an option up front right? I know there are some stats that popped up that was like from United fans who were probably annoyed at Arsenal sensing that Martinelli's better than Greenwood and they just put some negative steps out there. But like when you watch and he does look promising yes represent. He has a good run and a good finish. Well, not just that though like is swords later in the match. You could see like he was trying to create some chances trying to get into good spaces. Like positive things that you want to see from a young player, but I think this kind of this goal came against the Run of form because Chelsea look to be getting a bit more into the match in run a play play run of form. Whatever you want to call it. I'd say run of play. Okay run of play Chelsea seem to be getting more into match. Look for me would be over. Oh my God. Sorry, the grammar. The grammar police is oh Jesus Thunder grammar. I don't know what to say, but Chelsea look to be more likely to score a UND than it was for Arsenal to tie it up. So is a huge sway of momentum. It's also Arsenal's first shot of the match. Yeah. It was our song We're not in the game for the first half an hour of glucose our and got the assist who got the assist. I don't know I heard it was Mustafa. It is most happy. You're correct. Mustafa is more assists than Jesse. Lingard. You love to see it for United Chelsea make their changes after that goal Ross Barkley Mason Mount and Mitchie backs. Are you coming on Rob holding is eventually make an appearance for Nicholas peppy. But 84th minute Dave looks like he's won the game for Chelsea you some of these are as Bill aquata balls coming in off the corner. He just seemed to land at him starts at home under the keeper. It's a good finish. Yeah. It was yeah and finish and Arsenal they saw Bond Rob holding before that. Yes, like the lead. It doesn't help at all. It does not but don't worry. This is score. Rishaad FC pretty much. So ya later in him, I guess yeah five minutes after that. The ball goes to the other end. As long as I was like, yeah, five minutes Hector ballerina the other Spanish fullback, he goes listen, you can score I can kappas crap. I'm going to put one past curling effort back post with his weak foot with his foot and I think Kappa should have got something on I got to be honest. It was a great finish. It was well-placed, but Kappa has to be doing better though. I mean if it's a few hours a few Just holler. Yeah, he would have gotten in touch. I just I don't know. I'm not a solo Kappa right now. I mean after you read that stat your mind completely changes. Yes, take a look at our Tick Tock our last episode for that stat about kept a resemble Agha everything. So interesting last name. Well, I mean why not just Kappa its capital reserve a logger who is spelling that out to search him. Nobody kept out changer Instagram. I don't like it. It's his name. You're gonna just put kept up. That's like me telling you to change your Instagram from Liam. Peace to my last name is not resemble Agha. Yeah, but it says name its means a lot to you. Don't use your full last name because yeah because it's too long to spell am I wrong? No. Yeah. There you go. Thank you Case Closed shut up moving on. I can't believe I gotta help me. Yeah. Yeah, I think Liam actually tore you yeah. I'm sure look if we look at the Stats for this match Chelsea had damn near 60 percent of possession. They also had total of 19 chances 8 on target to Arsenal two chances to On Target to goals 2 goals 1 Now Chelsea. We saw this again with them in the weekend fixture. They had possession couldn't convert here. They are again having possession having the chances not converting Tammy Abraham seems to be not scoring Hudson noise not scoring Millions not score such as out pull the stitches out to be I've heard of Hudson until he's been playing better in recent weeks. I guess we don't scare me. He's not a gold squeezer Winger giving you rely. All nothing is Chelsea ever since Tammy Abraham went out a form. That's when they've started to look not Chelsea need to rely on their Wingers to chip in with some goals because their Midfield is not exactly a goalscoring Midfield. I mean, you're not wrong but you know as a penalty taker as long as the way he gets goals and goal LeConte is more of a defensive midfielder covid Church does what covid church does but none of them are like for sure. Berkeley sure, they're not Claire's gonna go bang It Go like every no they're not they're not a goal scorers. Not a Kevin De bruyne. And Mason Mount is very nice amount is very young missing still just you know, he's learning the primarily great Chelsea just can't put on Frank Lampard on the field. They would like Tom but you know, boys I'm coming. I actually I actually heard the commentary during the match say Chelsea just need a Frank Lampard. Okay? Yeah, any team would like a girlfriend? Midfielder that's what they need. Yeah, but you know they can rely on just the Centre forward who's not he's also a young huh? How does Tim Abraham like 22? Yeah, it's over the whole beauty of this top six clubs is on a 22 year old whose brand new to the Premier League. Yeah, like he's been doing he's scored. A lot of schools is he's been very good for this year, but he needs some help. He needs the Winger's I know I don't pull the stick was scoring when he was back when he was 15 years old. He was scoring more than Willian. And Hudson at all way you gotta give credit to willing. He's been putting he's been not bad this year pretty good. I'll terrible inconsistent you could say but still what for Arsenal is this potentially? Hey, you know what two chances to LOLs were deadly in front of that. No not I Arsenal they still have only one win with Miguel arteta. Yes, and now that it's Manchester United. This is a great result for Arsenal considering the circumstances. Yeah, but it's not what you want to see still but yet again for Chelsea, there's still a top for side but the results have been piss poor. Yeah. Yeah, like if you Chelsea's results without looking at the table you'd be shocked at to drink Land part is lost eight games. Yeah, and they're taught for how our souls lost loves games. How the how like, how is this? Yes, I know. They haven't drawn the minigames. That's the big thing but it lost eight matches this season. It's ridiculous. You know. Yeah, it's how many of them are at home probably a lot of them. I know this really mean much for you. Look at their goals for and goals against average. Seven goals for and then one point three goals against that's too many also be conceding if you're at all four side. I mean, yeah, it's on the parts on par with multiple teams below them except for Sheffield United who are obviously very good defiantly like you it's just crazy that Chelsea are still significantly clear of top for like yeah. Yeah, it says a lot about it just shows how I'm really great. Now how close the Premier League is the season? Well, it's not even close like this six. It's difference between Chelsea and Fifth and because V Adventures. Yeah, we all know what I'm just like the mid-table battle. Now. This is before Liverpool play wolves and wolves could defeat Liverpool. Yes, just and they be only three points behind Chelsea would hope you can try doesn't happen. Hey, it would be great for the Premier League Cup for race, but I hope we don't lose. If we if we look at the Arsenal lineup though. Yes, they are missing Obama am because of a suspension but you know the front for we always look at the front for of ourselves something to be angry attack-minded, you know Pepe Ozil, Martinelli and lacazette. What about me and comes back? Yes. I know. He's the best player at the club. Yes. He is the best player that person that ever had ever had start that they have right now do they drop Martinelli? He's been decent form this this past few games. I thank you. I'm not sure if Arsenal fans think this but I think you could potentially drop lacazette. He's not I know there's a few matches. He's working very hard, but there's also quite a few matches where he's just not offering anything off. This is my finals to assist in 17 matches. He's played so far this year and in the recent matches to just something seems off about him. Yeah, just missing something. Yeah, like maybe it's just confidence because Strikers they need goals and without goals. Their their confidence is shot. Yeah, like we see Danny. Yeah, it's always says that Özil is one the most You know influential in terms of assists and goalscoring chances. I mean, you know why I'm not so so he's got one assist the season. That's it. I mean when your Striker your taxes weren't scoring like lacazette. What can you do? I I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm just saying don't don't don't be another I was Ill but look I can say also was not good in this match, but it's hard to play. Well when you have 10 men, yeah, so should we not wanting to attract back and defend but or not as much as you need I guess in this Sure. Nothing is so is a bombing back next match. I think he misses one more week or three bath of Louise is but now it is it the FA Cup match that they that they miss then or is it just another just Premier League? I'm pretty sure I don't understand that but I'm fairly sure. Yeah, so it's not ideal time for Arsenal. But then again you have to be patient as long as you don't get relegated Chelsea. They are after I was all there are four. On 40 points and Arsenal are up to 10th on 30 points. So a 10 point gap between the two clubs. That's bad. That's shockingly good Arsenal are down. There was Southampton and Crystal Palace like oh, oh boy. That's a rough time laughter thing. You gotta be hot. Like Arsenal you has to be happy with that result, but it's at the same time. It's just like wow, I mean before they scored that goal to tie the match. Oh they were in the bottom half. Yeah. So my question is do we stick? The Tuesday matches or do we go to a Wednesday match? I mean we can go to whatever you want lean lean picks up an awesome Point know my mind either going to be Everton Newcastle are united Burnley. Let's just talk about me. You know, I'd Burnley because that's more recent on our minds Manchester United fall to nail to Burnley at Old Trafford burnley's first win at Old Trafford since the mid-60s. Yeah shocking also absolutely shocking by Manchester United. I don't know if this is a hundred percent true. But apparently that's burnley's first half goal since November 9s. It is. Yeah. That just shows United right now. She's mrs. United's Worst season ever right now are like I know people are saying we're start but it's already 23 matches in that's not really a star to night or just crap. Like it will was sent us a statement. I will read it out. Well, I want to talk about our three opinions first and our views on this matter because quite frankly we look at Manchester United Club that has no identity has no play style. Has players who should not be playing for this club has a manager who seems to be clueless at the top has a board that has no idea what they're doing. The entire Club is just in shambles. Yeah, and I mean they did create a few chances in the first half that they didn't take advantage of each kind of sews kind of similar with Chelsea a little soft in the attack a little again. You are missing Marcus Ratchford. He's gonna be out for two or three months. It's a key player moment their main player, you know, his goals have been so influential. Tension for the team where the hell the goal is going to come from. You know, Daniel James says barely scored this season. Well, as of late has been delayed Jesse lingard can't hit the net do anything. He did hit the net I was no Martini marshy Alice. So hit or miss a guys. I don't like his work out. I feel like I feel like he doesn't have any support. I'm not sold on Anthony Marshall other than his debut name me the biggest moment Marshall has for United do not score like an important goal to send unites the f Final 1 year potentially. I don't know if I remember it's for someone who's been there. Now for what Four Seasons Five Seasons and that he hasn't been the what United once said. It was a future of Ballon d'Or winner. That's what they called him. When he first came from Monaco. This is the future Ballon. D'Or winner know he just he hasn't been influential for me. He's had moments where you look good, but he's had a way more moments where he's looked. She plays a lot better when R ashford's playing with him, though. Oh is that rash would bring him up a little bit or just their partnership, you know both when you have a talented player long you it's yeah, it's easier to have a good partnership with them. And when that person goes away, it's more difficult if players don't have good synchronicity with you, you know, I don't know that we'll get more into the transfer news later on in the episode. You know, I need is Hannah goal scorer. Yeah, it's I know they've been linked something to say but everyone seemed like they're getting linked with Mousa dembélé is a great goal. Scorer. Look you love the man. He's great. I'm ready for seasonally on he just kept whatever he messed up. I just sent videos to him and got pissed off because you were you were you were writing off a generational Talent. That's a generalization or rather. Yes, Marshall did get a game-winner against Everton in the FA Cup semi-final in 2016. You'll have to see it. But well done for Anthony Morris the actual match just talked about that. Yeah, so Christopher wood big man. He scored to the 39th minute. He's having a fantastic goal scoring year. Are you really? Yes, he's got ten goals this season. It's not bad. It is very good the big kiwi up front you love it. Then for Burnley 10 goals in a season is pretty decent. I mean that could be what keeps you up in her sends you down 2% and then later on. I'm a match in the 56th minute the goal of the week. Jay Rodriguez were absolute Thunderbolt off the cross bar down into the net Dev - hey is left flapping poor David get-off. It was not looking good. There's only two look like an absolute wet napkin midweek. Here's Big Jay Rodriguez. Well, I got you big man. Yeah, but Liam Jay This is an interesting player. You know former Southampton Polaris was in the championship last season if I'm not mistaken with Westbrook didn't follow the champ classy the last thing using the proudly because yeah, but he's the guy I think he's had several injuries, but it's good to see that he's a great golfer. I don't know just having a great season before four goals this season up to be great. But hey, any amount of goals is better than some players doing this thing. You know, he works hard more on the to win the ball back. I mean you have to expect that from players on Burn exactly. He's not gonna have a You exceptional in front of goal record, but he's going to work hard off the ball chase down when you're that lowered when you're the lower teams. You want your players to work hard I fight for the ball did Burnley not make any subs they need to I guess not. I don't think brother ever actually really tested this game. I second half second half especially it was it's very one of those matches where it's just a team desperate to get a goal, but they have no ideas and it just keeps going across in the box and Keep going to defend his head and cleared out my favorites. And I mean when when you got Luke Shaw and Jesse lingard is your like Subs coming on at the same time. Like that's and Walker that's rough and and want to Sock has least. He's a great defender, but he's not showing that he's not that great offensively. He's all one foot left foot. He's got no idea. There's like one dangerous cross. He had I think in the first half it wasn't really that great if it's like Ross, but I watch there's a moment the second of later on where he had a chance to cut it on to his Often part possibly take a shot or two with the ball in we went back onto his right and got pushed out of bounds of those like Aaron you're a mensch as hair player use both feet. I mean, there's a lot of players Israel's fault. It's shocking that you get to the top level of football. They can't use both feet. Hmm. But fairest out of the night United 72% possession seven shots on goal. Nothing. Yeah, I wonder if Allah has made his comments already about the match and this just happened is all I will say something like, oh we were great hour ago finished an hour ago loved our press we loved our our intensity want Rio ferdinand's comment sure. I don't see a six six hundred million Squad out there what has been what has been bought I'm sitting up here and I'm embarrassed people at the top need to make changes. You can't defend this. It is ridiculous. Which we talked about we can go on to this conversation for the literal hours because honestly I think is when I was interesting topics and football is how has this club disintegrated so quickly it's not so quickly. It's been happening for years, but but Lucas in terms of recruitment this be no talents coming through and you don't have the right guys hired you. Yeah, that's a big thing and Woodward needs to get the hell out of there the glaze There's need to figure out a way. The Glaciers are the owners of interest, you know, they need to figure out a way to get someone in there who can successfully rebuild this club. Yeah, because there's a full rebuild of this point you want to read was this comment? Yeah, I can read was his one. So weíll send this to us right after the match finished. He's not work. So unfortunately couldn't make it. He says I have tried to defend all as much as I can. But after this match is made it clear once again, he is not fit to manage Manchester United his tactics are what Get into the final third and then just pass the ball anywhere and hope it gets to the player. He has no style of play and his so and is so rarely shown that his team selection is also questionable with playing the likes of Jones and Pereira only player. I enjoyed watching today was Brandon Williams who looks extremely composed for his age the way I see it is all I has become a better manager at his as time in Manchester United, but he's not capable of rebuilding a club of this stature. It's clear. We are a mid-table quality. Side Andres primeira to me was shocking there was moments and match format to made runs and he left we opened up but he decided to go for net instead and the ball ended up and Rose Ed and to I can go on with how many issues and I'd have by remember all these problems stem from the hierarchy which I agree with Mmm Yeah. I'm some comments from Olli after the match. He said we hold our hands up. It wasn't good enough. The boys are giving everything. They've got we're still fifth in the table. I don't think the boys are Everything they have yes is not a good enough side, but you tell me these players are not capable of beating a mid to bottom side Burnley says Manchester United. They need to be winning that Luke Shaw is gay paid a hundred fifty thousand pounds a week you like mentioning that a long as it's staggering to me. I think he spends all on McDonald's because imagine fat I'm fat. I'm not playing in Manchester United if I'm getting paid to have money, we can reach out to play for one of the biggest clubs in the history of football. I'm not looking like Luke Shaw. Am I Wrong only him you're not in that position. So we keep looking at Jesse lingard stats of no gold no assist in the primary and we laugh at it but the shocking point is not only is he still a Manchester United player? He's consistently getting playtime. No, but I I gotta agree though. I think Williams is just much but I'm willing to be very good isn't he was very good. It's all my things get shot out of there. He's not good enough. You're it's not that easy these you're not good enough sending danger my line. They'll take them. They need all the left back to the world is seems not wrong. Just United. He played for United. You're lucky get in there golden bucket has eyes like would Lukaku help this team represent a hundred percent. Yes Lukaku had it if you year last year, but he's still someone you don't want to get a dozen goals. I don't think you had a good relationship with with Oli at least. It didn't seem like it was a good relationship. You wasn't performing to the best of his abilities and now he's with a manager that he loves and he's performing Terms of Lukaku he made on the best movies of his life. He got it out of the shit hole that is united into a very young and attack sided and he's doing well chaplain who are doing well in Champions League and in Syria, but with well, you know, it's like kind of like Chelsea like with United doing so badly, but you're still six points behind top for which is not like with how they're performing. You think they'd be like 15 behind. I keep seeing the I keep seeing Roy Roy Keynes comparison of you keep giving And they want to keep getting Frank Lampard time because he's you know a Chelsea player and you know, he's gonna rebuild that club. Why don't you give the time to all I well quite frankly. I don't think I would have given the time to Frank Lampard either. I would have got someone else and but you don't Frank loud part is getting decent results with I think on paper at least a poor Club upper side outside of their Midfield their Midfield is very good. You're correct, but Manchester United have the world was expensive Defender. One of Europe's top goalkeepers a generational town to Marcus Rochford. They're going to say Paul Pogba. I don't even consider United player this point is it guys and played for how long he doesn't want to be there, you know, the club's refusing to sell them supposedly and he just wants to get anywhere other than United United should look at what Liverpool dead Liverpool sold continue investing good players. You have to I can't keep someone there who has no one. I'm good, but they don't want to be there there. I want to fit into your side. They're not going to work for you Christian Eriksen. It's not like it's not like one day Paul. Paul was going will he know what I like Manchester? It's beautiful. I love the rain. I'm gonna play here for all I know they're going off go back to 2D and or go to Barcelona or wherever he wants to go not three-d-- Madrid much nicer place to live. I'd assume I mean, I've never had never been to either Madrid or Manchester, but I assume Madrid's nicer just saying but Let's take a look at the United starting 11 because quite frankly it just hurts my head Phil Jones. Neat little joke you need to rest Lindelof. He's been playing so my children should not be at the steam Lucas. I'm pretty sure that is stoked quality. And that's a rude thing to say about Stoke. Did you see always so could you see that? You see the Tweet Burger King sent out some guys tend to tweet to Burger King say, will you please take Luke Shaw and Burger King says what says we will hire him when Burger King doesn't want you Luke Shaw, you know, there's a problem. You're being overly harsh in my opinion to Luke Shaw about his heart either crap. This is a bad United. It's not great. This is we know its leaders are bad. The bench is bad only doesn't seem to have a clue where the hell is going. Here. He is. No playstyle. No drive. No ambition. The club hierarchy is just like we're United that should women's games know. Now the thing is last year. They got rid of Mourinho fright poor choice my Radha no Ledo and Started getting results from it does. How does it happen here? There's always a balance should only resign or should he be sacked only out is trending all the way out always Trend or does he stay? Well, I mean, it's a pleasure is ours trying to yeah, that's a big one. Um, We had to know about a tech talk live before we started this oven and if any of you guys were on watching that but I said, I think you should get rid of Olay bring in a manager who has pedigree has the ability to attract top top talents, but they need to give them manager then years to get this club back to where they should be needs to get a full rebuild. But what top talents is going to want to join Manchester United in this situation right. Now. You're going to have to go a few bars below. That is true. Two Fine players who are bees that say and grow them into AIDS. You can't go out there and expect to sign MBA pay that's not happening. Yeah, you're not you're not going to sign another pulp off. But again, no, it's like I don't hardly United or not don't like dealing with agents like Mendez, which is Bruno for nuns agent and obviously don't have a good relationship with Rio Le at the moment. Bruno Fernandez is a deal they need to get done as we speak. It seems to be they've reached an agreement of five million pounds is still being held up because I don't know it's questionable. You know, I just seem to not want to spend that extra five to ten million pounds to get the job done. I mean, which I think they just need to do right now get it over with. Yeah, you know, you're not the top club anymore. You're gonna have to pay a little extra to get the top talents like Lucas said there but I don't know. I don't know who they can. You know, we keep saying oh if Pacino still develop Argentina low spots, you don't want this job. Probably not like It seems like a vile toxic place to work. I gotta be honest. I mean, he he probably was not enjoying time at Spurs towards the end because of I don't know players revolting maybe or just the end of the era of Tottenham there. I know there was a interview with José Mourinho and he said when he was there, he didn't know what the club's goal was. He didn't know what they're like with their their plan was for the next few years. So he said before he went to Spurs he asked the question of what do you want? Where do you want to be what he see ourselves as how do you want to get there? You know, I don't want to take a job where you don't know where you want to be kind of thing. Which I mean if you did, I don't know where they want to be or how they're going to get there. That's big issues. Yeah, you're supposed to be at our club upper. It's it definitely starts the very top of the Glaziers Woodward the board of directors. Whoever's in charge of making the siding so I don't think so shires and charger signings whoever's in charge of that. Get them out of there. They're just they're ruining this club. It's not good and it's just a mess right now and something needs to change. What are we? What are we moving on to? Well, those other good discussion. I did enjoy Rippy and unite a little bit, but I want to go back to talk about Everton Newcastle. Yeah. Well, that's almost boiling. Most exciting games of the week. The crazy one. I mean a great ending. Yes big man Moyes a cane finally gets his first goal for Everton. It seemed to mean a hell of a lot to him. I mean, he's gonna get that money. He off your back. His reaction was huge hundred percent. I mean one year on when you're having a lot of expectations you've come for a high price and then people like Liam are slagging you constantly then I don't think noisy can't really pay attention to what I say about him. But surely there's probably a lot of people who say similar stuff to you on social media and especially after his time with Duncan Ferguson where he was brought on as a substitute and brought off like what 20 minutes later kind of thing? Yes, I I'm sure his ego and his his characters taking a lot of bad ring or the past few weeks and months, but it's good for him to have the goal and it seemed to be a big goal for Everton seem to be right flying hiya to get a big victory here after him the man the myth the legend Dominic Calvert would Lucas his favorite player loves them. He makes it to nail for the toffees. Was it a good goal? It wasn't bad. It's a good touch. Like, how was can you explain the goal to me? I can read the official. Okay. Nevermind. Don't I don't want to read someone else's notes. Sorry. Sorry. I think it's just hate. I did not watch this game live Lucas. I have to apologize. Okay. Neither did I only went back and watch the last two minutes because that's where the real action which we're gonna get to. Yeah. So if you were expecting a good analysis of this entire match, I apologize, but it's the last we were watching other matches during this time. Last five minutes that really matter all it matters because as you could as you can probably tell if you paid attention to the premier Li you Castle score in the 94th minute at what's that face for Louise? What would you consider a good about a goals for a centre-forward this I know I know how they're doing scored a lot. Okay. So Carolyn has ten goals this season and the primarily yes. I thought he had more he's got 10. Here we go with Bobby from you know how this fun new you're gonna stop it. But he's got Wingers. I'm not comparing I'm not gonna bite into you that not chiral. I just I just looked at Liverpool has Wingers that score the top of the league. I just I just looked at his Terry wasn't just for me. No have seven. Hmm. Okay pop up on that face of yours. And I was just like something's coming here. All right. Keep going on Locust miss ya Newcastle score late to one. You think it's too little too late, right? What a good goal. It was my Le Jardin Nice pronunciation bicycle kick by the big man, you like to see it. Yeah, but and another chance for Newcastle straight away for some reason fifth minute the ball gets flung into the box and absolute pandemonium. Chaos ensues, it looks to just stop how Ricochet and stay out. However, the watch says the ball crossed the line goal. His Pickford was well behind the book Allegra's infant was in his own net. He does make the same but he's in his own golf ball crosses a line. It's 2-2 and absolute see Dean needs a goodison ancelotti pissed off. He also said after the game that he's okay with it because he's lost chanting files after being 3-nil up poems like you did. I mean, I think he's trying to like make his first acting. Yeah. I also love the tweet from the Everton fan who left the game with like five minutes to go. He's on the Traders great win big big timer buzzes. Something goes it's to to me he goes. No, but yeah. Gorgeous, I mean, how is Bruce doing this? It's big game Bruce became Bruce. This is not a big game it is when your relegation fighting to not relegation fighting though. Oh, we're now. Yeah, they're not and going to Everton Everton's you would you think is a upper mid day mean? I guess they're tied their time with point. So I guess it I guess but we can't come on. Come on paper. When you think of Everton like you think five teams tied on 30 points right now. Now there's not no but you know Everton seem to be getting bit more playstyle under Angela. I seem to be getting more results. So ever since Duncan for are they really getting results Eileen like they were losing almost every game before and they brought in Ferguson. They had a bit of a bounce and Charlie comes in. He seems to have got a little more settled. Let's say 1 versus Burnley. Yeah one versus New Castle then they lose to Manchester City then they lose to Liverpool. Kids they defeat Brighton one-nil tie was Time 1 1 and now untie Newcastle to to so not the greatest. It's not terrible. It's not inspiring but it's also it's better than what you're doing before. Yeah, it's survival. You know, they'll survive this. Let's say you were saying I think when you draw them in just survive this and then start again, but some players bring in some new ideas start out there playing Wofford and Crystal Palace in the next two matches for both tough games. They need to be when those because after every game in the primary that stuff for now. After those two matches Arsenal Manchester United Chelsea Liverpool and you could say that three of those matches may not actually be that difficult personal and United are who knows Arsenal United might be easier than water and I shall see you at home. Well Chelsea a way I guess but at Stamford Bridge, which they haven't been great there. You never know. You never know how to sleep but for Newcastle huge 2.0 huge Point rescued two goals, right the very end that back amazing the results keep you up, that can be a man. Of Point end of the season scrape momentum into the match against Oxford United. I mean that's you know, two goals from someone who you would never think to score goals, you know, it's clutch performance where your players who are getting the best out of what they have heard anything. Yeah, they're dead. That's right. They definitely work hard like this which is what you want. Are you could question many Newcastle players in the past handful of years of not working hard enough not really wanting to be there. But these players definitely are working for the manager and giving their best. Some of them may not be that talented. But when you work hard you're going to get results and sometimes sometimes you're just that bad where you even if I work hard work is more important. I mean, that's that's how Liverpool is in my opinion a little bit of talent that they have course. They have knowledge not denying that I work hard. I'm just saying they work hard and they get results based on count plus hard work helps. motivational speeches right there Let's talk about kids like what another match though that had prompted a huge know from from yesterday. Okay, it had huge implications Bournemouth Brighton. Liam loves us one. This is a huge game. Remember what I said last podcast Liam how they had to be Brighton. That'd be one of Brighton or I think Aston Villa. Hmm and they got the one. Yeah, they did. I believe you chewed when I believe in Bournemouth again. I'll still not my beliefs is still there. Okay, I'm For you, how about you? I'm still not sold one game does not define the season you're not wrong. But but it's it helps a lot. Really 3-1 victory over Brighton at home is a huge result for them. Harry Wilson with a the goal Pascal gross with a goal and Callum Wilson finally get on the scoresheet again. Oh no. No, he scored later on. It says Uncle here for the second one. Yeah, the third one was telling Moses. Yes. Yeah. Well most industrious angry. We got it was an own goal the second one. Yes. Yes, but technically it was not him but he gets a third one himself Calvin was like, it's the third one. Yes, how do whatever say the same thing just different ways. Yes, but yes it M31 and more just get a consolation goal at the end Callum Wilson huge. He's back at the scoresheet. Hopefully he can get fired up again get going toward goals because they quite literally rely on him. Hmm. Yeah. Did you get to watch this match? I saw the highlights of it and watch the full one. I Tribble second half you know, I thought Bournemouth were not terrible. They had pressed they had some energy to them. Then again brain aren't exactly the top of opposition. And I guess I guess Boris do do do better against clubs that keep possession in Brighton. Is that type of club? Like if you look at recent results against well recent ones. They've had or recent good results the Chelsea Wick Victory all see Chelsea like possession Arsenal draw our Stone like Session so maybe there's something to this. Maybe they'd like to counter-attack. Maybe they maybe they play better against the team's higher up the tape. There are a quick Pace UT here. So the countertop doesn't suit them a little bit. But all that's huge result. Yeah. None else was Eddie Howe in the job for another week. Are you worried about Brighton? I mean they are down 15. There are only two points ahead of relegation, but they haven't been terrible. The only a negative seven gold difference. They're not bad. I mean there's more to life than gold differently. Yes, but I'm saying they can least score a few goals. Yes. Yeah, like they don't concede as many as Villa. Yes. I think Brian are going to be okay, they'll be closed but they'll be okay this year. Mmm. You can't call I still think you can't call the relegation. It's gonna be tight. How I think the relegation battle to be more interesting than the top right now because the top teams to be done kind of settled number one's over. Yes. We you know that at least bright and they're trying to play a nice style Yeah, Eddie how has his style he has his play philosophy now. Yes that might result in, you know close to relegation or relegation itself, but they see sticking to it easily. No, this is how we play this or our philosophy we stick to it. I'm gonna brighten. Well I said born mr. He said bro. And I was wondering why you're mentioning how that's right. Do they do Grand Potter? It's not bad. I don't mind was a manager. Not me know what you're talking about with Bournemouth isn't wrong but like yes, I said what he said. He said brightens Tony bees. All right. What's next Liam Villa watford's another last minute love it. This is a great guy. Watch. This is a fantastic game. It starts out with Troy deeney be an absolute shit house really do love the relegation battle. It's great that they're great. Great. Troy deeney big Birmingham city fan hates Villa scores and just in front of the crowd just love just he's soaking up the hatred you love to see it. Yeah. I like Troy deeney. He's just big centre-forward called the pace called the power. It's a good Finish By the time he's just bundled over the line kind of thing. But was he celebrating a little too much possibly because there was a substitution in the 56 million that changed this game. What was that Douglas Louise came on for Villa and quite frankly. I'm going to win this game today. So he scores a goal 68th minute good finish good finish Lucas. You'd be happy about this one. He's a hole in the Box. Yes, you would use it in the Box could finish slots at home. One one scenes at Villa Park for him Lucas isn't impressed. Why would not be impressed Lucas doesn't score many goals. Which wow Lucas you Lucas. I'm calling you out right now. I scored more goals and you yeah, you should I'm fat but at the very end, the game goes on the game goes on Villar getting more and more possession more and more chances what 14 to be sitting further back. They will talk about pressure but chances are coming and right the very end 95th minute Tyrone Ming's the big man powerhouses it in back of the net to one Villa. Huge Point. Yeah Asif. I tune it in the last few minutes to see that go. Laughs. Yeah. Yeah, but the the coaching staff going now. Yes, honestly, it was great for them. They should be like, this is a massive game. I'm yeah huge huge amount of stress for both clubs and getting a result like this means that your little more safer than you were the day before no and any Victory like its massive. It's especially over someone right down beside you. Yeah, exactly. So I mean if we look at the table They're want for 19th now down in 20 30 points and Villa out of the relegation Zone 25 points. It's a great escape still on for Wofford. Yes, because they have the man you believe I do believe I think so. I think Wofford have decent players and you just perform and they need to step up to survive this season for Villa. There's a huge result of they can now stay out of the bottom three, you know, they have Jack real - who could potentially just keep them up? They signed a new Striker some mocked. I think he played for ganker Ghent. You never know. He could be some of the problem with a handful of goals save their season could be but no Tyrone Ming's is a good Defender. I think he's someone that they can rely on the back. I don't hate Villa. I don't I think Miller. All right. Yeah. I hope you don't hate he do concede a lot of goals. You can see the future many goals. You know, what's next Liam. Let's go pal Southampton. Sure. That works for me. Well this I work for you. I mean we can talk about it quickly. Yeah, so quickly is a huge result. I mean, I don't have too much to say about Sunil times over Palace. Yeah Gold's from mr. Nathan Rabin and Stewart Armstrong's you sure Armstrong's goal is to showing Southampton how good they are. Did you see either these goals? Look us I think is Armstrong's bangers. Both are absolute bangers outside the box big hits. I mean, I think I saw Armstrong's goal and I thought like I thought Names gonna be happy Stuart. It's got nice hair. I don't know. I'm not really surprised of them to know this high up in the table. I thought the manager I always believed they had a good manager Hassan who everyone is written 9th. Everyone was writing them off on their in the relegation Zone earlier the seasons. Here's the thing is it's very simple. When you lose nine mil your Club can just disintegrate but players can lose their mentality. They can lose any gumption. They have they they can't fight but they've turned it. And they've been able to get back on track it back to their playstyle get back to who they want to be and the credit to all the for all credit to the manager. No, but when results like that happen, sometimes that jump-starts players and yams like that. They don't embarrass us because I think I mean, I think more of the change happened after the international break. I read somewhere that a Southampton they change their system back to what they use last season after November. I think it was more of a I don't know. I think it's like four triple to or I guess it's like a 4-4-2 shape but it's a little has some variant. Yeah, but there's a great there's great pieces in the squad. Now, there's some players that are more of the hard workers. Maybe not the most talented players ever but there's some good player Jonah James ward-prowse really good player. But yeah, yes, there's some like good system players in this team right now. Shane Long seems like he's one of those Danny things even though you Start much rested this game. Yeah, I do like old a theme or with Amy. Yeah. I remember watching him a few seasons ago and sing sing some promise from him and he's only 19. So it was vestergaard in Stevens. You have to centre-backs who have Premier League experience, you know, they know what to do, but not great, but then what to do, but first for Crystal Palace as a huge loss room, so there they started off the season very very well. They have dropped off of the past few weeks. Though what you remember a Chris Kamara? Yes, and he's like a van soccer some yes, whatever. That was. Yes. He had another one apparently with my with Michael obafemi. Okay. He mistaken him for obafemi Martins fair enough Chris Kamara desert Chris Kamara. Does Chris Kamara? What happened? I don't know Jeff speed a red card. I don't know that he got slipped off. I thought it was me. I You shouldn't have that was a great because a great clip but for Palace, you know, they are not performing the bass. I mean that's them down now to 11:00 Tuesday when Manchester City they've risen sixth a head full of weeks ago. Would you ever expect Crystal pass to be in say no because Roy Hodgson is our manager that I surprised her even in the top half of the table. So give them credit. Yes. I am I'm saying the result is a game. But Southampton have been better in microwave reform is a huge loss for Southampton. Yes, ma'am tonight. Has six wins away from home, that's pretty good. That's fantastic for a team. We good did that just come out of your brain? It's just so sad that manly Greg. So if your brain, What can you want to talk about next Lucas? I really want to talk about Lester versus most hats because this does involve the top 40 minutes, but also the relegation battle is because West Ham they're in danger again. I like this game though because it's a team that you don't wouldn't expect to be so high in the standings and it's a team you wouldn't expect to be low so low in us and I really enjoyed this match to it was not too bad. Yeah. I watched most of it. Yeah Lester we're looking very good in the first half. They were up to nil on Polly. Had a few more. Yeah, there they create several chances where I don't care. There's sometimes where do you notice? They just either Madison or Barnes they eat it. They try to dummy the ball. Yes, but then like it doesn't go anywhere near the player. I feel like they do that so often I think they almost hard to overcomplicate the scenario and try to look really really good which I mean I say 8 or 10 times it comes off for them or they look fantastic but there's times where is like, hey, what are you doing? Keep it simple? Yeah get the ball. All working forward you have a fantastic finisher Jamie vardy and Madison and barns and everyone else around you just finish the play unlike a Manchester United Lester have some great offensive fullbacks do and they get involved in the place. So well, I love Pereira I do to I've been card. Oh, yeah. I've been saying this for a while on the best right backs in the world Benja. Well, I okay I think Pereira da it's been one of the best in the Premier League this season 100% I agree like it's attacking work, right? Fantastic defensively has a pace to get back. He's just he's just seems to be a full package right back right now. Yeah, he has some weaknesses defensively but it's not bad compared to others the current the modern-day fullback doesn't care. What defending Lucas we're just all out attack. I mean if I mean if you can produce what he did today with a great goal and it's a great finish by Absol back just corny every game. It was a banger though. He hit that. There was a Venom behind her. So I'm going to finish this either. Okay man have a hit son. He did. Yeah, yeah, whoo nil, but halftime, you know David Moyes is like okay need to make some changes. Okay. Oh my God and West tab. So yeah, they took off Snodgrass was injured and they take off mass waku and they bring on Antonio and who was the other guy? Yeah, Braun McHale Antonio and Pablo from now has yeah. So Antonio Antonio, he goes up top. He's a he's a btech. Version of a damaged Rory he's a big man as well. I see differences, but I'm saying physically Locus he's a big man. He is big but you didn't he is pick but the front to they went to affront to with Antonio and Hilaire it actually works because hollers good Antonio's good together. They become pretty decent. How do you go from good and good to pretty early Until you leave thank you. Just went down like 6 and 6 out of 10 come together. We're an 8 out of 10 We Beat Bobby what you said before? It's like good+ good equals decent pretty decent. I think decent below good. I don't know. This is all over the place, but they're both above average income in a more above average again it however with the right surrounding is way better than average get off your high horse. Keep talk about the game. I'm close. Look at Frankfurt last season talk about again. No bad as what I mean. Yes, thank you Greg. I mean in the first minute on 22 gets a great chance to soar. But then indeed he makes a mistake takes down take style are oh, yeah. It was all our and it's a penalty for West Ham the back in the game. He took him down where the ball was going away from goal. There was no need to make a challenge is a stupid play. But yes, he goes through them and it is a pound a shot for West Ham and Noble makes it 2-1 our Noble down the middle cool calm collected. From what some they started pressured a little bit more. Yeah, but without pressure opened up chances for them for for Leicester City to be going to counter-attack and go through with a big talking point Lucas you missed it. Hmm, Jamie vardy. Oh, well that was in the first half. Yeah, you missed it. You could imagine this it I'm sorry, or did I miss I think we all missed it. I didn't miss I'm going to Marty goes to clear the ball with his left foot out of the box and upon. Cannonball he immediately grabs his left hamstring and he goes down. It does not look good for Jamie of already his parties put on hold Liam, you've had hamstring injuries in the past, right? I believe so. Yes, I have yes. So what's the pain like when you initially get that? I don't know if I've done like the full Hampshire he has I've definitely pulled my hamstring it hurts a lot. But I mean, you know, it's one of those things that you feel all I do is run it off. All right. Feel him just get you know get on with it. But no you just you lose your your hamstring. You can't move, you know, and like how's the recovery process just time? You can't you can't really do much about he's gonna rest it. So you're pretty much just laying that on your bed sure. This is coming from because I know he's been injured medical diagnosis. I've never had a hamstring injury like that before that's unfortunate. So I wanted a perspective of the amateur footballer. I mean, I don't think I've don't mature season a much much much below amateur football amateur footballer. I would consider like league for England. That's my Semi-Pro. Shut up. Shut up. No, but VAR D could be out for a considerable amount of time because usually hamstrings are about a month to two months injury. So does this really affect? Clusters attack or will they be okay with them with in actual going up top? It depends how I think it's how the players around my thinking nacho fits nessus and quite well, I think he showed it in this match where he got into good spaces. You didn't quite get his shots off a cliff on a few occasions, but he definitely he definitely has that intuition of where the right place to be and I think if the luster players around him are creating quick movements and great passes. I think they'll be fine, especially with DDP seemingly back now. Yeah, I think I think the thing is not how I see it though is already did so well for them early. Yeah, he got them in a spot where they can yeah, just try and hold it. I don't think he nachos going to replace varieties goalscoring form because I've already been brilliant this year, but he nachos not a bad guy to have up front. He did. He's a decent goals cluster shows a good team. It's not just party. Yeah party. I hungry. No, I think unless you I'll be okay moving forward. They need to just keep up the momentum and they need to keep on getting results. Especially against teams below them like West Ham now West Ham though. Hmm. Are you worried about them going down? Yes. I mean, there aren't 17th. They are tied with a born with in Watford on 23 points. I have said before I don't think say it again Westheimer definitely contenders to go down because I don't David Moyes is the man and let's look, I don't think they'll go down. Well, let's look at their next upcoming schedule in the primarily tough fixtures own thing. Yeah. So in the Premier League, they play Liverpool on Wednesday next Wednesday, they play Brighton at home. So that's probably a must-win match. Did you know Greg West Ham is the only team Liverpool have not beaten this season in the Premier League because they have played him yet. So yeah. Yeah, then they play Manchester City won first time beat you twice then I'm gonna be in bed. Rescind have to luckily. It's on a Wednesday. So I won't be having to talk about it or talk about it. But yeah Manchester City then they play Liverpool for a second time and Southampton Arsenal wolves Spurs Chelsea's a tougher on and that's that's all the way to the beginning of April tough tougher on the dirt there and it sounds good Jules do it though. I don't think so. I think West Ham will be a team. That was definitely right around relegation. I'm really bored. Days, I'm really worried about West Ham honestly, and I picked predicted them to be around really on mid-table. I think mine was a bit more than table. The thing is that they have good players. They had all the right players there midfields week their Midfield slow Noble and rice. You can be what you can work hard. But if you're very slow, you're gonna get killed in the Premier League or any League. Really? I just don't think David Moyes is the right guy data to a point, especially when you are so close to relegation. I just don't think he's the guy how disastrous would that be for West Ham with that big stadium that is a disaster in the first place. Yeah. The London stadium has been absolutely Just terrible moment for West they left the bull and ground to be this. Yeah, we become a big Club in the future. That's why they want into that new stadium. But since they've left its things have been down crowd. Yeah, and if they get relegated with that stadium and they get relegated with that fan base with that with I guess the amount of money they've spent in past years, but you use his yeah, you've seen clubs. You'll go down the chat like West Brom like full-on like, you know, Swansea QPR Cardiff Darby or big Huddersfield Stoke bigger team. I think this is different than those. I West Ham has bigger probably they are. Yeah, but just imagine the championship watching Championship matches with the London Stadium with like 20,000 people in it. Yeah, I don't know how many people are in the matches nowadays. But yeah, it's more. I think the more I look at is the players are not going to stick around. You're going to lose a lot of your key key players. It's who's gonna play in the championship not Declan hurry, and we know how West fans but what stem fans have been in the past like remember when they've invaded the pitch took those? Yeah, we're flying and stuck it in the middle. Yeah, they had issues with their owners have had issues with play players and then managers. I think I found it funny like a slob on Village is currently top of the championship. He's gonna come up and go down. I should never have sex live on Billy's a great manager for them. He was he was good for the first season for sure good. I like slav on plus. He had Dimitri payet he kind of helped. All right theft. All right. So there's one more match left. I think yes. The Lester game does n41. We never did say that the last two goals, but you'll see Paris had a brace in them. Just dropped like you'll see. Yes for one now. There's a couple games remaining to talk about let's talk about Tottenham Norwich City. Yeah, it tends to 1 for spuds great. Give your analysis. I missed the first half. I'll let the second half Norwich were pretty good and Spurs were spuds Spurs were spuds Spurs were bad Delhi Ali does open the scoring 38 minutes in but is cancelled by a team of poke penalty and 70th minute. Yeah and hung Min seong rescues. All Points such a scrap Eagle spuds. It was just it was R so lucky the fact that they were able to even with him Spurs get the results first get the win Norwich of harshly probably should have gone a point but they miss out on that to agree with that Greg Norwich definitely should have gotten point from but I think more than the result in the game. I want to talk about Jose Mourinho. Because I saw one pundits say he's a failed manager at Spurs already. Let me know summer transfer window II agree. I don't think I'm sorry. I'm sorry for jumping the gun. I don't think he is. But this is what the the pundits said. He said, who is this punt? I don't know who it was or just someone and doesn't matter. This is the BBC. It's all I know. He said Mourinho has sacrificed a play style that Spurs Apache no had instilled to get results, but now he's not getting results and he has no place now. So what does he have? He has nothing I mean, Three first versus playstyle 1 watt Regina was here. This season was not great at all and it wasn't entirely paci knows fault, but I don't know. I thought I can't really comment on how Spurs are playing because I haven't really paid to close attention to them in the recent matches. I know there's some promising things in the beginning but obviously that seems like a tailed off. I don't think Marine is a failed manager of sparrows makes it he hasn't had a full treasure. He's a summer transfer window. He soon still his playstyle. His players plus I don't think is Squad is great. I still got Christian Eriksen. There's a pool there who they brought on just you could tell he did not want to play. He's there. He's forcing him move through the probably Inter Milan, but no, I just I don't I look at that Spurs lineup and I don't I don't know if they're top six lineup. I mean, they're very well off right now and carry Winx. They have some injury they of course, they have some injury either. The big injury is Harry Kane upfront awesome sandal belly and I'm Bella sissoko. Yeah, but I heard a little salsa was good. Plus also was very he was born probably one of the better players and they had get some front-end. It's come on again. None belly was on the bench probably didn't want to risk, you know, he's been getting quite a few injuries and that's mostly probably because the club is rushing him back from him to quickly which is stupid in my opinion. If tires still just gets the ball and then just passes it backwards. I'll never try and make a forward pass that was that was Jordan Henderson handful of years ago that last season now, he's a probably class Midfield probably go to an English Player of the Year award. Oh English player of the then he really wasn't that did he? I'm pretty sure you only one thing was clear that they're going to say like the Premier League player of the year. I'm like hold your horses manager. That's that's gonna go Saudi oil money or de bruyne Kevin don't give the kettle boring. I mean, he's fantastic. This is which I guess is some are we already going on? I mean, I mean, there's not much to talk about this a bit of a snooze Fest artist. I mean grope didn't sleep through it. I'm very tired. He chose not to watch the first half. I wasn't home, you know, you chose not to expose my lies here Greg, but yes, let's move on to the final Premier League matches happen. Manchester City victory over Sheffield. Well Lucas you forgot about I'm pretty big match. I watched a match but it wasn't that memorable night wasn't the arms. I was not that memorable. It was memorable about it Gabrielle Jesus mrs. A penalty. No, I mean that was pretty man Henderson. I mean, he was pretty good. He was missing I'd say it's great. I think he made like three or four or five saves up. I'm like, holy crap. It kept them in the game for sure. I thought like kind of ER to Sheffield's previous match I thought they did well like initially to keep pressure on City and there and there and there defensive Zone was couldn't finish all they can really create any chances. I know Manchester City, especially in the first half before they got the penalty. They were Miss placing passes. So awesome popular very slow. I'm like, this is a Pep Guardiola side. They usually are smooth crisp, but there's so many chances something's off. Jesus does missed that penalty it is Third and missed in the last six penalties is taken now just do see peps comments. What do you say? He said he thinks our new penalty takers gonna be Edison because he says in training Edison is our most clinical penalty taker. He'll take our handle these dude. That's so banter. I think he's obviously joking. I don't know if he is did did you guys see the Henderson on the lawful? Yeah. Yes that needs to be retail. Probably. Should I get it? It's just inconceivable. Consistent because they would do that in another game all I don't see the primarily I'm not a hundred percent sure of what they do. I know with players running into the box the rule is as far as I was aware of the rule is the lines went on the line though the back line if he he has to flag for it for VAR to look at. Yeah, because I think they said in the beginning of the Premier League season because at the Women's World Cup, they used more for that so often and it was really annoying and apparently said we won't do it. Well let the officials on the field. So the official doesn't see it or he doesn't call it. Well, then they don't look at it, which is a bit dumb. I'm okay. I'm okay with it it and to be fair. It was a crap penalty either way. So obviously it wasn't even if he was on the line. I think would have been saved most likely between Henderson had a great has had a great year so far at Sheffield, he's course. He is a Manchester United player. He something that maybe they look at next season. Yeah, but David has been and Sir Kim Sergio agüero. So another guy out of retail car. Get out of jail free card. You struggle with that sentence you struggle the last year last week as well. I don't know what to do. Maybe my English is not great Lucas horse man important here - but yes, Kevin De bruyne doesn't Kevin De bruyne does an excellent ball across the face of the goal and Sergio Aguero therefore a very simple tap in he's not missing those yes. Mr. I won't say the phrase again, but for his the one he was just said get out of jail free card. Yes. He is. He's like iutah song In Tulsa, you play agüero on you what he will score your goal. Yeah. He's a clinical strikes in his firm recently like drill 12 goals in the last six matches are some very good good. Yes, I gets incredible ease. He always seems like he has a bad relationship with Pep Guardiola. There's always like one occasion the season where there's kind of some things going off, but then like he comes and just score so many goals for the club. I think he's one of the best of all time in the Premier League water really is one of the best of all time the Premier League, I think human again Pepco Guardiola or all they love each other but sometimes they respect each other, you know, so it's probably one of those love-hate relationships, but if if you're playing for a manager that is that great and demanding. Yeah, and you're one of the most talented players in the world. It's going to work out. Yeah for Manchester City fans. Like it's going to be a sad day when Sergio Aguero is no longer the guy he is now there's talk of him leaving in the summer. I don't think that's a thing but that's that'd be a bad idea. Learn if he stops for Miami, why is it always must get to Miami? I love it. Like let's say he's probably supposedly one side to him and David Silva the same time like it's pretty awesome and City. All right, let's do it. He is contract and bring Johnstone's next you might actually be okay the MLS might that's what we do Laporte is Laporte was back. He is chicken meatballs. He's back give him power. Big man Laporte you just he brings so much help that I don't we just blow it more solidity. I think I think Manchester City. They put a 3 back in this match with stuffily. I think that wasn't an accident. Obviously, I think I don't know. Well God guys because I suffer. Guys guys, I can't change it what's going on? Like I just I can't click pause and change formation. Or any didn't have a bicycle kick attempt in this match, which ultimately yeah, but there's a great player. So what I was trying to say before I just made that dumb comment because I think last time they played Sheffield United it was a different formation. I think and with Laporte back, I guess they want to solidify more defensively which were sent and prevent chances and they did a good job in that. I think there were there were a few times or Sheffield had a really good chance. You should only have one shot One goal. Yeah, but there's like few chances where they had the ball in the Box it ready to go and they just couldn't get it. Yeah, there's one more primarily game. It has not yet happened wolves host Liverpool. This is gonna be a good game PLS 1 Liverpool to be a good game, but great match at the mall in you I see Liverpool edging this one here. We have three two. What was what was the score but we beat Manchester United to nail know it was one nail when with that but they did score a goal walls. But and then the second half really was yeah, you just we defended we didn't really need to go. We just defended wall wolves missed many chances walk towards the end. Yeah, so it's going to be a tough game for a little pools are a great team and I look forward to this match and I look forward to the challenge. I hope wolves gives us a good match and hopefully we're up for it. Yeah. Hopefully you can raise your levels you had a good mid week or in a good weekend match a good result. There's no wolves have been good. Are good against yeah teams. Yeah, and hopefully we can win keep that momentum going into Shrewsbury spray. Yes Lucas. Yes Shrewsbury. Now, there was no other domestic leagues this week. We got some Cup matches. We have Copa del Rey go through these quickly because we've been no. No, I'm just not going through any other way except one Lucas. Okay, let's pick that. Let's be real here. There's only one to talk about. I mean an interesting one for sure. Yes. Anna almost lost to Ibiza. If you are not aware Ibiza is a tiny island off the coast of Spain there in the third division of Spanish football. It's just a party island you go to Ibiza for a weekend and you you come back still drunk kind of thing. That's okay though. So Barcelona go away there. Maybe they were a little drunk. We don't know but nine minutes in pep. Kebaya scores to put the hosts in front scenes at Ibiza. Scenes the game goes for an hour. Nothing happening from Barcelona. They've done absolutely jack shit for an hour 72nd minute. Finally Antoine Griezmann goes. Hey, I'm a 100 million euro pleasure. I'm going to score against these guys who are in the third division. He looks like he'd be someone working in Ibiza. Yeah. He really does. He looks like a pool boy. I got to be honest, but he makes it 1 1 and finally at the very very end. And 94th minute he scores again to win the match to be third person approach regarding a penalty just before that. It was yes is probably got pushed in the Reps like ah, I wouldn't give him he'll D. Give I beat it the point. Let's go corruption have a replay but be that goes to the new camp, but there's a point in this match were I'd be that had well Barcelona had 80% possession one shot and I beat the had five shots 20% possession. I be there were right in this game and it's not like Barcelona had a fully rotate his head. Yes, they had a little bit but they have a long way. They had two young. They had racket tips. They had Griezmann playing. I can't the third division side just show like they probably watched they rely on messy brought on Jordi Alba Arthur and Arturo Vidal. These are players that they did not want to have to play this game. They're like guys let's rest ourselves coming back to La Liga not hey, we gotta win a game because a third division party. Tell Mike it's it's great. But those same time you're like what the hell is going on? The Barcelona see one thing that concerns me is I read Colin Miller who wrote a book about reality set in the severe a rivalry. So he knows quite a bit about the Barcelona manager because he was Batiste manager hears. He said some things here August 2018 Real Betis 78% possession Levante 22 result three. No Levante. Yeah in April twenty nineteen again against Levante 72% possession for batis Levante ones. Fornell procession is indeed everything happy positive. Its motion to what we said earlier you have to Actually do something when you have the ball. He says hold on to ya like he said you can you can have total control the ball but zero control of the game. Yeah hundred percent there for large portion of the match Barcelona didn't really have control of the match. You can have five percent five percent possession and win the match won now go on go get a corner and knock it in there you go dub games over another interesting result in Copa del Rey real Valladolid team that we saw here in Edmonton. Oh, yeah. They lost a Tenerife. I mean 10 recent his second race also a Party City. So Party Island, you'll have to see The Tenerife goal when they win it 2-1 over it. Congratulation Elite and Bill Baga pushed to penalties by El Che yes. Yeah Real Madrid goes to get a 3-1 victory over has pronounce. This one right here Union is toss de Salamanca. Good job. Mucho gracias Señor. Yeah and Valencia got a narrow Victory not much else to say another couple door right there how they is kind of more similar to The Epic up now. Yeah. There's no to at least from what I know for the most of the German. There's no two-legged Affairs anymore. Okay, and it's just one leg but all these things so lets you back Friday for the they could not go to the new camp will not be a great to play a game with a new camp. Like you're a third division title. Yeah. I'm going to use like the hot tub and I'm gonna I'm gonna take my full time to enjoy the amenities at my service like the round before didn't have the top four teams in Spain. Okay, so just gonna buy a kind of thing. Yeah, and then the top four teams played against Were definitely played against the worst teams out where like worse division sides. So it was kind of fixed in that way, but it almost caused some great upsets almost did there's a parcel of it goes out the round of 32 that you mental like, maybe the Copa del Rey will have magic like that fake updated in the yes hundred percent. Let's do a little bit of a transfer around because there was a few moves care about the no no, I do not Lucas. All right, we have to start with I mean, Bayern Munich No, but we're not going to talk about them or know who those matches. What is there to talk about a Coppa Italia? Oh, okay. Sorry. Yeah, I was actually big matches Roma 3-1 Ronaldo scored. Okay, and Napoli played lot seal 1K and Napoli 1 1 nil. So Liam last year lost a but wasn't in Syria, but basically basically now we all know. Liam doesn't like glass will come up clutching and see if they can see shouldn't they should not beat like Liverpool and now lot seal, but that's you also blow it again seems they should win. Ah, I don't know about that. But there's two red cards in this match scenes Heist has his saws. You got a red card in the 19th minute and Lucas Leiva. I got a red card in the 25th minute. So they played ten on ten for most isolated Lucas Leiva. I don't know part of this will end probably there's a lot of like Miss chances Post in this match, but somehow ended one now, but it's okay that end in one meal for Napoli. What was the event is result 3-1 against Rome. I think that's a understandable result bouffant scored an own goal. Poof on the buffoon and tomorrow or who is interplay interplay Fiorentina next Wednesday in the cup. Yeah and Milan play Torino. Next Tuesday. Authors games are not easy. Fiorentina have not been great this year, but you never liked no upset. It's all just top do you think yeah. Yeah, I think event is play the winner of meal and Torino, but that event has our say someone be pretty cool. Let's move on to transfers. Yes. Good Bayern Munich sign someone what do you think about this transfer and let's and say what it is. Don't tell me what to do. Okay, don't do it. Then realize just sit here read me this challenge because I thought you had it with you. What was his name? I don't know how to pronounce his name old three years old. I believes. Yeah. He said that he signed on loan from or is a transfer alone. I thought it was a full transfer all he want to Bayern Munich. Yes, we know so much about football. Do we not Oh, I thought you had it prepared and I guess I got sidelined by we're talking about Coppola. How do you actually do you know happened? It's a loan. They loaned him. Okay. Yeah, he's a right back. He's right back from Real Madrid. Apparently, he's pretty good offensively but kind of weak defensively. So well, the thing is you just Bayern Munich need Defenders right now. Yeah, they need that they are back line is thinner than I don't think they were going to be thinking that they had to play Alfonso Davies I left back like all the time, you know, he was supposed to so that they could slowly ease into the 11, but he's playing so lonely place. Oh, no, nothing taken away from him. But like he also has tick-tock. Alfonso follow us off on door from your own City represent. But yeah, so he signs on Long trends of the season. It's good to have another depth player on death row is good have another Defender available for Bayern Munich because they need him but then again the rumors are still going around about Jerome Boateng leaving. Wish I could see happening. Also remember from Sky Germany buying interested in signing up Americano. I'm not shocked by that a lot of things. We want Bayern Munich supposedly are not going to I still have continued the end of his loan really hasn't been good enough for them. But I'll be interesting summer in Barcelona will be will he end up also rumors willing Jose has asked to leave real sociedad and to join Tottenham. I don't know if that's true or not. But so she dad wants at least 50 million euros for the player. That's a lot. That's a lot supposedly according to Sky Sports Manchester United are going to offer 30 million for Jude Bellingham if they're not going to hurt him probably not. He's a 16 year old from Birmingham city these four calls for them. What the hell are you? He's played 28 minutes. No or the 2028 matches. Thanks clean match, I would have just four goals and 68th minute 30 million why they're not even willing to pay that a lot from nowhere near this club is on joke. Also Danny almost there's been rumors about him going to new club. There's AC Milan Leipzig and wolves rumored. Where would you like him to go? Wolves wolves would be cool. Not a seam on what but lipstick. Live start good right now, so Crystal Palace have signed a gym 18 year old Scott Banks from Dundee United so you could see that's not terrible, but I don't know if he's a gem. It's not the worst anything else. Let's take a quick look here. Let like that Liverpool have become top favorites to sign team of earner and the summer if he decides to leave Leipzig I mean, it's a good choice for you guys. I mean if he plays look at light like he did at Leipzig. I want to not mind that he not last season but this is not a lot of what season he scored. He was good, but he wasn't I thought he was overrated now. I'm looking like a fool. Yes. That's okay Gareth Bale's agent has ruled out a loan to Spurs. He says loans are stupid. Basically basically what it's called when he goes no one can afford his Lon we all want a loan. He's not having cologne loans are also dead according to the keep West Hammer in children reciting Dimitri payet bring him back boys. You can save the season but I want to talk about Cavani just quickly like it's really end up. Apparently a lot of problem is a big problem is his wages. You want gets a lot of money place for PSG. Yeah, like here from the telegraph Edinson Cavani pursued reaches standoff with Paris Saint-Germain over twelve point six million pound valuation. Where do you think you'll end up? I honestly think it's because I think he's going to stay. I don't think it really I don't think I'm gonna let him go because I know it seems up probably are interested Chelsea United Barcelona a fellow called Madrid get home. Yeah sobbing rumored and I thought from the tread were interested earlier this month, but they're not much has happened from that yet Atlético Madrid could really use him because they need another goal scorer else you could use them. But he's also apparently asking for a really long contract. I think yours those teams want to do that and he's 33 right now I'm in Chelsea already went through their Saga with Ego iene. It didn't really work out a little bit older strike the vanes Turning 33 in February. Do you want to have given that long of a conqueror argument one this possibly two-year contract. Yeah, but is he knock wood he goes until good. He's a good player. He's a good goal scorer or is it time for him to go to Miami? Like know everyone's gonna go to bloody my own. No, I think you should stay in here. I think he has a few more years to give Chelsea could be a big Chelsea but good one. They don't want kelsier or Atlético. It's that seems like a signing old Chelsea would make it does but again can I don't know maybe maybe Abraham can learn something off of a veteran gold school. I think I thought a Common Thread is the best but probably they could barely afford his wages the only wait and see what happens anything else or I think that's pretty much it on for longer than I thought whoever much longer always goes, right. Always was supposed to be a quick midweek round up, but I always like let's talk for 13 hours, but Manchester United. I don't always happen. It does happen.
