## Transcript

[0:00] Welcome back to the Boxer Box podcast.
[0:02] This is episode 67 and Barcelona gives La Minamal the number 10.
[0:06] Is he there to Messi? And a bunch of moves in the
[0:08] tracks for market with Rashford, EKTK and M Buemo.
[0:11] We're going to be talking about it.
[0:12] And Man United linked to three top class strikers.
[0:14] Which one would be the best for them?
[0:16] All that and more on the Boxer Box Podcast.
[0:19] Let's go. You ain't going home.
[0:21] Your Honor, I'm sorry. Your Honor, I'm sorry.
[0:27] On. The pitch and Bangula starts our
[0:29] next. Game tomorrow.
[0:38] Would you rather Saliba and Buffett?
[0:40] Right. Saliba, right now you wouldn't.
[0:45] Saliba, right? Now.
[0:51] Episode 67. I don't know about you guys, but
[0:54] absolutely nothing has been going on in my life.
[0:56] Absolutely nothing was happening in my life either.
[0:58] No more until we got a bomba as soon as I woke up.
[1:03] Was it yesterday or today? The Rashford tweet I think.
[1:06] It was. It was.
[1:06] This morning it was. No, it was yesterday morning.
[1:09] I don't know. I was.
[1:09] This morning, Bomba, this morning.
[1:11] Yeah, it was this morning. I'm yeah, No, it was no, it was
[1:13] yesterday. It was, it was at 50.
[1:15] It's at 50 mil views. There's no way it got 50 mil
[1:17] within the time frame and Rashford flew out today.
[1:19] But absolute bumba for me and Rashford was like my favorite
[1:23] player ever so. We're getting into football.
[1:24] Well, no, we don't need to get into it right away.
[1:26] You guys can tell Volvers life revolves around football.
[1:29] Yes, that's all I think about all day.
[1:31] But we did release a YouTube video today at time of recording
[1:35] yesterday. If you're listening to this,
[1:36] well, you're definitely listening to this on Monday or
[1:38] Tuesday or whatever you listen. To it on Sunday.
[1:40] Yeah, problem, yeah, I don't know last week then, but yeah,
[1:44] go check it out. We, we listed the players that
[1:47] we are investing our stocks in this season now.
[1:50] And we actually, I loved recording that video.
[1:52] It was a lot of fun because we have to do a lot of research
[1:55] before thinking, oh, what players, you know, are going to
[1:57] do very well, very well. I was.
[2:00] And the issue is I was, I would have put Rashford, looking back,
[2:04] I didn't know that he's going to transfer to Barsa.
[2:06] Would have been a gambo. But I've said on the podcast
[2:08] that he's going to make the Balandor shortlist at Barsa if
[2:10] he goes to Barsa, so I'm still sticking with that opinion.
[2:13] But I think I cooked comment section saying Varvar cooked
[2:17] firms FC is looking very dumb right now.
[2:19] I saw a lot of firms FC stocks all time high.
[2:22] I don't know about you. I'm.
[2:22] Looking at the comments now and I don't see I haven't seen one
[2:26] Varvar show. Yeah, I think Varvar has a
[2:28] filter on comments where it's like.
[2:30] Just varvar positive. Are we now reading some comments
[2:32] right before? Am I OK?
[2:34] Thank you, Barbara for cooking firm.
[2:35] That's the first one I see. This happens every week, by the
[2:37] way. This isn't a regular occurrence.
[2:40] Firms you were getting cooked though.
[2:42] Bro when you have good opinions there's going to be opposing
[2:45] views as well and I don't hate. That not 100% of people are
[2:47] going to be happy. Mania True Gamer 6351 how was
[2:50] Varvar the smartest person in this video and firms the dumb I.
[2:54] Just scrolled through like 50 comments, maybe more.
[2:56] I have not seen one varvar. I see varvar.
[3:00] Super annoying. Run continues.
[3:02] Million power flying under the radar, I see.
[3:05] Well, million power, you guys invested in like little the
[3:09] stocks that will give you half a star.
[3:11] To me, to me, the one that I'm gonna keep fighting over is the
[3:15] EKTK 3 1/2 stars. The brother just transferred for
[3:18] 90. 5K we could debate a bit. We can get into EKTK after.
[3:22] Yeah, but I'm just saying that that was as stupid as like we
[3:24] whiffed on that. I don't, absolutely.
[3:26] It should have been more, it should have been more no,
[3:28] because 3 1/2 stars, 4 star because especially given the
[3:32] season he he's had and the £95 million transfer that was moving
[3:36] along in the background. I mean that that should just you
[3:40] want. Time 4 stars.
[3:41] I think 4 star was just he. Should.
[3:43] I think he should, but once again.
[3:45] Reindeers was four-star. Yeah, or Reindeers was what, 3
[3:48] 1/2? You know Rangers.
[3:49] Stars. We gave Millie Reindeers 4 star,
[3:50] you think? Reindeers is as good as Ektik.
[3:53] I mean, in public opinion, yes. No, no, if that could decay.
[3:56] Scores 15 goals with five assists for Liverpool.
[3:58] He's actually might drop to a three star.
[4:00] Yeah, but he was 95. Goals.
[4:01] You're a 3 1/2 in the Prem, like 3 1/2, you're 15 goals.
[4:06] And the thing about him is that he's not just a whole, like he's
[4:08] not just a bagsman. He's everything you want in a
[4:11] striker. So we'll see.
[4:12] I don't know, whatever. We can get into later before,
[4:15] before the move, like before there was even any motion with
[4:18] the moves. So yeah, I don't know.
[4:20] I think 3 1/2 was fair. Like obviously if he transferred
[4:23] to Liverpool and then we recorded that video, then I
[4:26] would say obviously it's higher. It bumps up like in a span of a
[4:29] week. Because you're you're in a
[4:31] better environment, you're in a more successful SO.
[4:34] You're saying Varva if she got off to a quick lead right now?
[4:38] I mean. So you said yeah.
[4:39] I'm already, I'm already up. Yeah, I could.
[4:41] You guys are all playing catch. Up, yeah, but then as possible
[4:43] as it goes up, it could just. Oh yeah, you know the match week
[4:46] #1 Varvar 3 Acls of his stocks. That's that's happening.
[4:49] That's inevitable. One of your players is getting
[4:52] an ACL tear. This.
[4:53] We'll see. We'll.
[4:54] See, I'm I'm thinking this year that physios are going to cook.
[4:58] Are all physics? Are all five of your players ex
[5:01] ACL tear We'll. See, I don't know.
[5:02] They need to watch the video. I don't know.
[5:04] Oh well, I mean doesn't give it away.
[5:06] There's a lot of ACL tear. Yeah, there are a lot of ACL TS,
[5:08] but Varvar FC found some value in the market.
[5:11] We found little nuts and crannies that value that people
[5:14] weren't looking at. And Varvar FC abused the system
[5:16] definitely. Yeah, definitely loophole, but
[5:18] he's the system he knows. You're part of that, yeah.
[5:21] He doesn't think that I was he He he actually thinks Ansuvathi
[5:24] is shit, yeah. But he owns it many.
[5:26] Times too, we're just spoiling all the pics on that.
[5:29] But. He picked him because he just
[5:31] wanted some extra stars on his name.
[5:34] Has to be said. Has to be said because no one in
[5:36] the comments is talking about the Varvar.
[5:38] Complete the loophole. Yeah, loophole.
[5:40] Like just dismay for. They hate us.
[5:42] This thing, the system is a rig. Yeah, the system.
[5:45] That's literally what you guys sound like right now.
[5:48] Why we have integrity? You guys pick some dog shit ass
[5:50] flares. I'm not going.
[5:51] To we have integrity. We'll see.
[5:53] This is why we filmed the. Video and also also I'd like to
[5:56] say I was about to pick Minte, but I allowed palette to pick
[6:01] yeah because. It's allowed.
[6:02] We're. Spoiling all the picks, aren't
[6:04] we? Yeah.
[6:05] So we're just spoiling everything now, OK?
[6:07] But it was a fun video to record.
[6:08] Yeah, definitely go watch it because like we wanted to do
[6:11] this video just from a a good while ago.
[6:14] We've been wanting to do this video and this is going to cook
[6:16] when it's the end of the season and we're looking back at this.
[6:18] Low key, the video is doing pretty well right now.
[6:20] We might even look into doing players that we want to short
[6:23] for next season, Players that we think are like.
[6:25] Hi. I enjoyed recording it so much
[6:27] that I didn't even care about the views.
[6:28] Yeah, I just enjoyed the video. And I know that when we when we
[6:31] react to them at the end, it'll be even better.
[6:33] So yeah, I don't know. I'm kind of happy with that,
[6:36] yeah. Definitely gonna keep an eye out
[6:37] on those players, but definitely make sure to check that out and
[6:39] let us know where you would put Ekatika and a half I'm.
[6:42] Curious like doing videos like that, we recorded this last
[6:45] week. It's crazy to see the news
[6:47] cycle, how quick it like it tone turns because we weren't even
[6:50] speaking about Liverpool for Ekatika.
[6:52] We weren't even speaking about a lot of these stuff and like,
[6:55] it's just absolutely insane how quick the news cycle turns so.
[6:59] Well, that's a perfect segue into our first our first big
[7:02] topic, which is the Fabrizio Romano Rashford tweet.
[7:05] That shit went viral. Triple platinum.
[7:07] Third, most liked Fabricio and viewed most viewed tweet.
[7:11] So we were talking off camera and well, rage baiting each
[7:14] other off camera and Varva was basically just trying to talk
[7:17] about, I don't know, were you trying to link it to Man United
[7:19] Poll? Who were you trying to?
[7:21] Link that to It's that Man United any transfer link to Man
[7:25] United look, I'll even give you I'll give you a I'll give you
[7:28] millies rolling his eyes. I'll give you a perfect example,
[7:30] okay, Man United are linked to some random random fucker, some
[7:35] random goalkeeper, Sam Sam Layman's.
[7:37] Okay, I'm gonna find what that tweet got on Fabricio's page.
[7:42] But basically 50 million views on this, 50 million views on
[7:46] Twitter on this transfer, which is only surpassed by Mbappe and
[7:49] Ronaldo to Man United. Once again, two of the top three
[7:52] are Man United, but whatever, that's all different
[7:54] conversation. We're still a massive club.
[7:57] Commercially, that's how you're lifting commercial.
[7:59] Your fan base is just chronically online.
[8:01] Yeah, but but this is a player leaving Manchester.
[8:03] United, yeah, but. He's not just a regular player.
[8:06] Yeah, but it's also not just like a regular transfer out team
[8:09] like this is Barcelona. Yeah.
[8:10] So I I do think there's also like there's multiple factors,
[8:13] but Rashford is definitely one of the more notorious English
[8:17] names that are that's out there right now.
[8:19] I would say at least more internationally known.
[8:22] I don't know if you guys agree. Yeah, he's he's pretty known and
[8:25] it and it's you have like the perfect storm.
[8:27] It's a transfer to Barsa 11. It's a Manchester United player
[8:31] that is, I would say failed, that failed towards the end of
[8:34] his Manchester United career, which everyone loves to see.
[8:38] So you had everyone that hates United, United fans, Barsa fans,
[8:41] the world because Rashford was on the big stage for like a long
[8:44] period of time. And the fact that it was a
[8:46] bomba, like we don't know what we woke up to this.
[8:48] This wasn't rumored for two weeks or this wasn't like a
[8:51] Bape. I'm surprised that Bape was in
[8:52] the top three because Mbappe was strung over like.
[8:55] Yeah, but bro, it's Mbappe to Real Madrid.
[8:58] Yeah. Like but imagine Fabrizio had
[9:02] his thing when Ronaldo went from Man United to.
[9:05] True, but stuff like that. I read the rash retweet.
[9:08] I don't know if you're gonna understand what I'm saying.
[9:10] Like the, the Mbappe one, I just looked at the picture of here we
[9:14] go with Mbappe and I'm like, hey, this, whatever, I don't
[9:16] care. I already know everything.
[9:17] But the Rashford one, like he actually broke me news that I
[9:20] didn't previously know. Like I was looking at like the
[9:22] wage or the wage, but the, the transfer fee and all that.
[9:25] So it leads to the question like, should old journalism be
[9:29] brought back? Because this tweet alone like
[9:32] showed me like bro, that that feeling of like the, the tweet,
[9:35] seeing the tweet last second, I don't know.
[9:37] That was pretty much. But I, I find it boring that you
[9:39] like it's, it's not for, for us like people who are chronically
[9:45] following the sport like 24/7. It's a lot more boring to just
[9:49] no transfers when they're official.
[9:51] Like we get to follow storylines and sagas.
[9:53] You would have never heard about Ekatika being linked to their,
[9:56] linked to their, linked to their.
[9:58] You would have just heard, Oh, he just joined Liverpool for £95
[10:00] million. Ninety €5 million.
[10:02] It gives us content creators way more to talk about, yes, but
[10:05] like Ozie Man, let's say Ozie Man was not spoken about at all.
[10:08] Then you just saw he went to. There, there was a there was a
[10:11] thing online that what's your unpopular football opinion?
[10:15] And then someone answered back that signing should only be
[10:17] announced like when the teams walk out because basically back
[10:20] in the day in the 1950s or 60s, first game of the season, you
[10:24] were looking, who do we sign? You're looking.
[10:26] You're looking at. I'm sure those newspaper.
[10:28] No, no, I'm telling you, Man United like fans only realized
[10:32] that we signed like George Best. There's I don't freak.
[10:34] I don't remember which one it was or or Dennis Law or
[10:36] something like that. They gotta be realized when he
[10:37] walked out of the tunnel in a Man United get there like what
[10:40] the fuck? We just hiding them.
[10:41] No, this is gotta be a long time ago.
[10:42] Yeah, I'm talking about the 50s or 60s.
[10:44] Yeah, I can't. Their fans would look at their
[10:45] line and be like. What you sipping the ass?
[10:47] No. They'd be like Bonnie, they'd
[10:50] see Bonnie, and they'd be like who?
[10:51] The fuck is this? Oh my God.
[10:55] Insane work. But yeah, imagine, imagine a
[10:58] Galatasaray fan reaction of just you just see Aussie man walk out
[11:02] of the tunnel. Yeah.
[11:03] Pretty nuts. There's always been rumors,
[11:05] there's always been like. Not belief.
[11:08] Yeah, it's not. Kevin Brodner out.
[11:11] Of nowhere. If you freaking out bro bring
[11:13] that back little key. Yeah, I, I think, I think it's
[11:15] just overdone now. Just too many details, like
[11:18] small details. I disagree.
[11:19] I'm I'm a chronically online loser.
[11:22] I love all these details. He he admitted that, by the way.
[11:26] I am chronically online. I'm a loser, not forced.
[11:29] I'm a proud loser though. Clipped.
[11:31] Like, I'm very proud clipped. So I I love Twitter.
[11:36] That's a it's. Like cuck heritage.
[11:38] No, no, no cuck would be. I call Millie a loser and he
[11:42] just takes it. I'm a proud loser.
[11:45] So you so. I'm alpha.
[11:46] That's low key alpha. No, no.
[11:48] Yeah, cuck. That's like saying like I'm a
[11:50] proud gooner. Like I'm proud of my like it's,
[11:52] it's a you're you're, you're you're being, you're proud of a
[11:55] negative thing. Like I'm not proud.
[11:58] You're not allowed to be a proud gooner.
[12:00] No, so they could literally. Come on, this fucking thing and
[12:03] you're a gooner. You're.
[12:04] I'm not coming. Anywhere.
[12:05] We're mommy, bro. God damn.
[12:07] I'm a gunner. There's there's grown men out
[12:09] there who go online with their Arsenal kids and say I'm a proud
[12:13] Gooner, No. Up the Gooner?
[12:14] No, I'm turning as a fan of Arsenal, I'm turning them off of
[12:18] Gooning. We're Gunners, we're not
[12:19] Gooners. That's something wrong with that
[12:21] happened there. But you don't.
[12:23] You don't think it's too much though?
[12:24] No, no, no, no. That's crazy.
[12:26] I need my 27 point so I I need my 20.
[12:29] Seven point so it's a fucking Portuguese player that the world
[12:33] doesn't really know about and every day 26, although they came
[12:36] back with 25.5 only. Gets annoying when it's like
[12:40] like and Wemo was annoying like like Fabricio, OK, I didn't need
[12:44] the 27th update saying and Wemo's waiting for Man United.
[12:46] Like I really didn't need that. If something changes, let me
[12:49] know. If Wemo's open to other
[12:51] possibilities let me know, but I didn't need to know but.
[12:54] I've seen like I've seen like 10 when every contract extension
[12:57] tweets like I don't need to know this information.
[12:59] Yeah, Lookman right now is in that situation where it's just
[13:01] like, bro, you only wants enter brother, I'm refreshing.
[13:04] Anything else please? See the issue is that you sign
[13:07] no fucking players so you don't know how this feels.
[13:09] OK, you're link that's this guy was linked to Inter Lookman news
[13:13] broke less than a week ago. Like you understand that and
[13:16] your club's already in negotiation, But brother, Man
[13:18] United and blammo, I had to wait.
[13:19] Fucking two months, brother. That's more of a reason.
[13:22] Like we're constantly refreshing because our club buys no one.
[13:24] We're constantly like, OK, is there going to be an update
[13:26] here? Like we don't think he's moving.
[13:28] We don't close out. I'm not linked to anyone.
[13:31] I got a shit out to refresh. Yeah, yeah, it's.
[13:33] I got none. But that but that Rashford news
[13:35] definitely hit like there was shock factor to it.
[13:38] So how do you think he's going to do a Barsa?
[13:41] I said Balandor short bro. I actually hope third.
[13:44] I actually hope the best for him because now that he's not a
[13:47] United, I can actually. Wish you well.
[13:48] Now the agenda switches because if he does good then it's mine
[13:51] bro. I might buy a Rashford.
[13:52] Rashford bro, I already. Enjoy Rashford now, yeah?
[13:55] I was. I was having this this debate
[13:58] with our our patrons in the discord.
[14:00] OK, if you had to rank the three, let's let's just say left
[14:04] wing position for Barcelona at the beginning of summer, there
[14:06] were three alternatives. Nicole Williams release class
[14:09] for 55 million or whatever, but on very high wages.
[14:12] Luis Diaz for 70 million let's say, but on high wages or
[14:15] Rashford loan plus buy option which rank those three in terms
[14:20] of light of the wages. You made you made the loan plus
[14:23] option sound very nice but they're spending a bag on
[14:25] Rashford 10 million loan fee. 14 mil.
[14:29] Even more 14,000,000 loan fee and then what?
[14:31] It's a 40,000,030. Million 3030 by option.
[14:34] Plus he's getting like what, 14 mil a year?
[14:36] Well. No, no, there's zero loan fee.
[14:38] There's zero loan. Fee.
[14:39] It's just it's. You're covering his entire
[14:41] wages. Which is in in excess like
[14:43] 14,000,000 which is crazy. I saw there was a loan fee.
[14:46] No, no, there's no loan fee. 100% hundred probably too.
[14:49] He's just covering his wages. His wages are. 14,000,000 which
[14:54] is crazy but I think clear clear upgrade if they would have like
[15:00] on an actual deal basis. Better than both of those I
[15:03] agree with Diaz and better than Nico Will.
[15:04] The best deal Barsa could have done in my.
[15:06] Maybe he's not the best of the three players, but to have that
[15:09] flexibility, they can play striker or left wing.
[15:11] He could be like Rashford at it's at his peak was better than
[15:15] the two other players. Yes, Yeah, it's.
[15:18] But once again, you're taking a risk and it's the the cheapest
[15:20] of the three. But there is a player there that
[15:23] would that has shown to be better than Nico Williams and
[15:25] Luis Diaz. Yeah.
[15:26] So you're getting the cheapest of the three.
[15:29] It's just about harnessing the environment for Rashford to to
[15:32] actually play well. And I think Aston Villa last
[15:34] year he showed promising signs of being able to reach that
[15:36] level. Again, yeah, but so did Sancho
[15:38] Dorman. Yes, it's kind of crazy how we
[15:41] speak about the Nuno Mendes Penitentiary.
[15:43] Meanwhile, Sancho completed the record amount the dribbles in a
[15:45] game against. How to spin it?
[15:47] Time flies before. For me, if there's if there's
[15:49] one coach that could unlock Rashford potential again, it's.
[15:52] I agree and I think La Liga is going to be very good for him
[15:55] like we'll see about in the big CL games because that's my
[15:58] question is, is Rashford there physically and technically to
[16:02] compete in those really big CL games?
[16:04] But I think in La Liga where he's going to be way quicker
[16:06] than all the defenders and he's going to be like playing on the
[16:09] other side of La Minamal, you're going to be fed ten goals
[16:12] minimum or 15 goals a year just by playing on yours.
[16:14] Fedon Torres got like 15 goals last year.
[16:17] So you're going to get the goals.
[16:19] And the good thing about Rashford is that he can play
[16:21] left wing and striker, which is 2 positions that Barson needed.
[16:24] You fill 2 with but with the price of 1, you know so.
[16:26] But in the flick system, I don't know.
[16:28] Can he keep up? Like at Villa he seemed like he
[16:31] could have, but that was in like spurts because in the Watkins
[16:33] was still playing in the Prem, Rashford was just playing in
[16:35] champions. League, yeah, but it it's
[16:37] because what they played some games together actually too.
[16:40] Really. Yeah.
[16:41] So I think, I think this is honestly like if I have to grade
[16:44] the transfer, I'm not going to give it S because it's, it's
[16:51] like Rashford is not the perfect player nowadays, but I would
[16:54] give it a like it, it, it is like a very good transfer.
[16:56] It's this is a party. This this is a rare transfer
[17:00] that benefits all three parties. Man United benefits a lot by
[17:03] getting that wage off and like, yeah, we'll, we'll like 14 mil.
[17:07] No one was going to take that wage.
[17:09] So that that really benefits us. Rashford, I think it's the
[17:13] perfect environment for him to succeed and rebound his career.
[17:16] Because if this fails, honestly, you're looking at Saudi or MLS
[17:18] probably has his next move and then Barcelona.
[17:21] I think this this works perfectly for them as well.
[17:24] Yeah, I would give it a beat. I think there's a gamble aspect
[17:26] to it. There's.
[17:27] A big gamble aspect. And I mean, we haven't seen
[17:29] Rashford at the top for for years now.
[17:31] But last year against PSG, that guy literally took over the
[17:34] game. Yeah, that Aston Villa game, he
[17:36] was good. Rewriting history?
[17:38] No. Not rewriting history.
[17:39] We watched it. I saw radio.
[17:40] Yeah, he was. He was amazing.
[17:42] He wasn't amazing. He was, he was good.
[17:44] He was good. He wasn't amazing, he was
[17:45] amazing. I I do think that obviously Muta
[17:48] La Liga will definitely boost his confidence and plus playing
[17:51] in a team like Barcelona, like you have world class players all
[17:54] around you. So you could only be improved,
[17:58] you could only be supported in that situation.
[18:00] So I think I definitely a move out of England was needed but.
[18:04] They're not relying on him, which is also a good thing for
[18:05] Barsa because they could just go revert to what they were doing
[18:08] last season, of course, and you're still good.
[18:10] So this is just a a a a risky, but not tactically risky.
[18:14] And Rashford, Rashford's more of a runner he doesn't like.
[18:17] He's not as good when the ball is played to his feet.
[18:20] When he's looking at the defenders, he's good, like
[18:21] finding space in behind. So if the ball is always gonna
[18:25] go to La Mina Mao and he's never really gonna have to play those
[18:30] in behind passes and everything, he's gonna be the one running in
[18:33] behind. I think honestly, this is match
[18:35] made in heaven. I really think that by option
[18:39] for 30 mil, we're gonna look at it next summer and it's gonna be
[18:41] a without a doubt. That's if he doesn't get in
[18:43] purchase. But you guys protected yourself
[18:45] if I'm not mistaken. Yeah, they are.
[18:47] Well, no, I don't remember. Fabricio never confirmed if
[18:49] there was that clause. If they need to pay us if they
[18:51] don't do that by option. That's what I think.
[18:53] That's what Fabricio said in his in one of his recent videos that
[18:56] was. Man United, we're trying to
[18:57] negotiate that in, I think, yeah, I'm not sure what happened
[18:59] there. But either way, I think that by
[19:01] option is going to be used personally.
[19:03] Like I think that one's by next year, Ashford's going to be a
[19:06] Barsa player. You see he's already, he's in
[19:08] our top five earners right now. But you see, like that's
[19:11] something I look at and I'm like, he doesn't deserve to be
[19:13] up there. I agree Right now understand the
[19:14] situation. They understand it's an old
[19:16] contract and there's a loan fee. It's, and also like Rashford is
[19:20] a big commercial pull. Like it's not, it's not like a,
[19:23] it's not like a Frankie Deyoung. That's not a big commercial
[19:26] pull, but he's getting a big salary.
[19:28] You know, like Rashford commercially brings in a lot of
[19:31] revenue for the club. I mean, we saw it with the
[19:33] tweet. I was saying before, like Syria
[19:35] teams, if they wanted a little bit of exposure, this guy would
[19:37] have been the perfect guy to do it.
[19:38] But Syria teams can't take that risk.
[19:41] Or gamble he'd be. The top earner pretty much.
[19:44] I think. Yeah.
[19:47] Exactly. But I think honestly, this is
[19:51] it's not like Barsa needed it, to be honest.
[19:53] But if you went to, let's say, a Setiac, it would bring a lot of
[19:56] eyes. So yeah.
[19:57] Yeah. Because people are going to tune
[19:59] in to see, oh, how's Rashford doing, bro?
[20:01] People watch real Batiste in Conference League just to see oh
[20:04] how's Anthony going to do? Yeah, and Anthony is 110th of
[20:07] the history of. Rashford yes.
[20:08] So like I I seriously think this is like one of the most win,
[20:12] win, win transfers for everyone. So.
[20:16] Let's buy a Rashford. Rashford Barcelona.
[20:18] Who says no? Talking about Barsa kits, we
[20:22] have a new kit that we must purchase.
[20:24] Laminia Mal inherits the number 10, the heir to Lionel Messi.
[20:29] This is massive now. It was coming, it was always
[20:33] coming, but it's still massive. There, I've seen a lot of
[20:35] criticism online because obviously he got those, I'll
[20:39] say, vertically challenged individuals to come to his
[20:42] party. OK, So I've seen a lot of crazy.
[20:45] What? See what?
[20:47] I'm being politically correct. I'm trying to be very generous.
[20:50] Just no. That's horrible.
[20:52] That's belittling them. No.
[20:54] You like the? Yeah, OK.
[20:56] Yeah. But like honestly, I don't see
[21:01] the issue with it. Everyone was consenting so I
[21:04] don't. I personally don't see an issue
[21:05] with it. All the Real Madrid fans in the
[21:08] discord. Yeah, no shit, no shit.
[21:09] They're gonna they're just gonna hate they they find anything to
[21:12] hate. Yeah, but but regardless of of
[21:14] that he's turning into, he's turning into a don't.
[21:18] Say it that he's turning into a Neymar.
[21:20] No, no, no, no. I wasn't saying a player comp.
[21:22] I'm just saying he's just turning into something that I
[21:24] didn't initially think that he was going to become.
[21:28] It's starting to make sense now that I'm seeing it.
[21:30] It's like, OK, no, this kind of natural evolution makes sense.
[21:32] All this money at such a young age.
[21:34] But also I hate the Real Madrid fans out there tweeting Andrick
[21:37] on his 18th birthday. So humble bro.
[21:39] The guy's ass. Laminia Ma is the best player in
[21:41] the world. So that's that's how I was
[21:43] trying to explain to them. Like I don't care if Laminia Mao
[21:46] goes and has a birthday party as extravagant as he did if he goes
[21:50] out and when is like top 2IN Balandor.
[21:52] I do not I couldn't care less how you do it, just do it.
[21:56] But we. Never.
[21:56] We we football. We've seen it countless number
[22:00] of times. You can't be both.
[22:01] You can't be the bad boy and then be the best player in the
[22:04] world. I disagree bro, Ryan like Ryan
[22:07] Giggs was amazing until 39 years old for Man United.
[22:10] I don't, I don't know and. He was and he was like, bro,
[22:13] this guy, this guy was he's. Out and about.
[22:15] Yeah, knowing his brother's sister.
[22:17] Yes, brother's wife. Yes, but no one.
[22:20] But see, he's not, he's not like he's not even a Gareth Bale.
[22:23] Ryan Giggs bro. He's the top assist man in all
[22:26] Premier League history. Thomas Miller is the second
[22:28] assist of all time of any Oh my God.
[22:31] But no, like like he's young. So it understands that I
[22:35] understand that he's like wants to do this stuff.
[22:37] But bro, did you see his cake? The guy got money, drugs and
[22:41] guns on his cake. The mud out the way it's.
[22:44] Just they're 18 years old. Like.
[22:46] Charles Leclerc was at his birthday.
[22:48] Where's that connection? Yeah, I know there's it was just
[22:50] like it seems like a lot all at once.
[22:52] That and how he goes about it is, is one thing.
[22:56] But obviously with the number 10 at Barcelona, you're you will be
[23:00] seen as the main person at Barcelona.
[23:03] The 10 isn't a light number like we saw with Antu.
[23:05] Fatih couldn't handle it. Yeah.
[23:07] But the 10 for Barcelona is is a very, very important number.
[23:12] So you kind of have to go like work accordingly with that.
[23:17] But my issue is not like this guy's showing up to preseason,
[23:20] he's absolutely shredded. It's not like he gained weight
[23:23] or anything. Like he, he, he puts in the
[23:25] work. Yeah, I get that.
[23:26] But unfortunately, as you age, yeah, it gets a lot harder and
[23:30] harder and harder to me. But we don't even know if he's
[23:32] drinking. He might just throw the party
[23:34] and just not drink. No, but it's a lifestyle you
[23:36] fall. Into There's a full champagne
[23:37] bottle at the. Top Have you ever seen anyone
[23:39] that's been completely immersed in that lifestyle and never
[23:42] indulges in it? No, like there's no yeah there
[23:46] there. There's no stories of them, of
[23:48] party animals just not partying but going to parties.
[23:50] Like hosting the big party but not doing anything in there like
[23:53] the. Great Gatsby just sitting on his
[23:55] top porch looking at yeah, wait, wait, wait.
[23:57] Wait for the I. Feel, I feel like the sport has
[24:00] low key like, and it's kind of the way that journalists report
[24:04] on them, like taking away the human side of it.
[24:06] Like, bro, players are allowed to go outside.
[24:09] Yeah, players are allowed to go out and party.
[24:11] They're humans like everyone else.
[24:12] I I know, but like we we spoke about this.
[24:14] Is an 18 year old kid. Yeah, I understand, but you are
[24:17] the best. Human side to involve our you
[24:19] hire fucking vertically challenged, vertically
[24:22] challenged group. That's not that's not the human
[24:25] side of it. That's that's.
[24:27] You can hire you can hire anyone else Santa.
[24:29] You can hire DJs if. Even dancer.
[24:32] Anything even. Freaking even Like what exotic?
[24:34] Dancer. Exotic dancer, you think he's a
[24:36] Garnacho had those same exact vertically challenged and what
[24:40] do you say? You say Garnacho is an idiot.
[24:42] Yeah, but he I don't, I'm saying that he doesn't try hard like he
[24:46] tries very hard. But we're not.
[24:47] We're not so. So just because he's talented,
[24:49] it excuses his actions? No.
[24:52] Well, just because he works hard, it excuses anything else
[24:54] he does. You work hard, you reap the
[24:56] ward. Yeah.
[24:57] OK, but that's not way enough reap.
[24:59] Them I find so so we're now. Dino, we're talking about reap
[25:02] the rewards. Yeah, this is a reward.
[25:04] This is not season pass. In FC-25, he was long vertically
[25:07] challenged the party animal. This is gluttonous.
[25:10] This is just like, this is way too much, way too fast.
[25:13] And unfortunately, like we've seen it, like Father Time is
[25:16] undefeated, things will catch up to you.
[25:18] The way he's acting now, if he does that at 33 years old, he
[25:22] will so so. And well, so I'm sure this has
[25:25] happened. We're not even to be so it's
[25:27] better to have strippers, let's say at your party instead of
[25:31] these individuals in your mind. No, I.
[25:33] Think both. Both if you're both.
[25:35] If you're 18 and you decide hmm I need to throw a party what
[25:39] what really entertains me? Bro dwarves and strippers I
[25:42] think you need you need to read. We have no confirmation there
[25:45] were strippers there. He just said OK, that was the
[25:48] fact, not a politically correct term.
[25:50] But the fact, but the fact that he had to sit down, I think he
[25:54] had to sit down and say, hmm, what would really make this
[25:57] party fun? And he came to that conclusion.
[26:00] Though you've never been to a party with them there, so you
[26:02] don't know bro. We got to experience it first.
[26:06] Maybe they're the life of the party.
[26:08] Maybe they're the life of the party.
[26:09] I promise you the party would have been just as fun if they
[26:12] weren't. I don't know.
[26:13] I promise. I don't know.
[26:14] Garnacho looked like they were. They looked like they were a lot
[26:16] of. Fun, and Garnacho's a dunce
[26:18] about that. He's about to get a big transfer
[26:20] to Chelsea or Aston Villa. Yeah, enjoy that.
[26:23] I don't know. Hey, this is just something that
[26:25] he need. I'm just he's the right people
[26:27] around him. It doesn't seem like he has the
[26:28] right people around him. This.
[26:29] Is not great to see at 18. I don't think this is a valid
[26:32] thing. There was a Madrid fan I was
[26:34] speaking to in the discord that did bring up a more valid thing
[26:38] in my personal opinion is that playing he plays a lot of
[26:42] minutes and at his age the players that's played these
[26:45] amount of minutes usually tend to flame out.
[26:48] You could look at R9 who was at the same level when he was 18 or
[26:51] 17. I see though Messi didn't play
[26:54] when he was 18. Messi only really broke onto the
[26:56] scene at 1920. But at 19, he was playing
[26:59] minutes, yes, but he's playing minutes.
[27:00] I. Don't know, Yamal has over 100
[27:01] appearances right now. He just turned 18.
[27:04] So players like this that really end up like playing a lot when
[27:07] they're young. Sometimes they flame out quick
[27:10] due to injuries and stuff like that.
[27:12] So I that's a more valid thing that made derail is I don't
[27:16] think that the partying is really that big of an how.
[27:17] Do you not play him though? How do you justify not playing
[27:20] the I? Agree.
[27:21] I agree completely. It's a situation that's
[27:23] unfortunate to him because he's one of the best players in the
[27:26] world. Look, look.
[27:27] At Neymar, you believe the best. Look at Neymar right now which
[27:30] he can't stay healthy for more than like 5 games at a time.
[27:33] And you think it don't? Don't you think his lifestyle?
[27:36] I don't think it was really the lifestyle, personally, I don't
[27:39] think it was the lifestyle. I think it's bro.
[27:41] Look at the way that they played against Neymar was getting
[27:44] kicked the shit out. Of his whole career.
[27:48] Yes, I agree that I agree with, but Messi's low key.
[27:52] Messi's low key an anomaly, an anomaly to the injury scene
[27:56] because bro, this guy literally picked up 0 injuries.
[27:59] He picked up one big injury. But then you understand, okay?
[28:02] Then you have to understand your body.
[28:04] You have to understand yourself, okay?
[28:05] I'm an injury prone player. I have to do things differently.
[28:09] You have to adjust your lifestyle.
[28:10] You have to adjust your practices, how you, how you
[28:13] train and what do. You think Messi doesn't drink
[28:14] like Messi does? Messi goes out bro, like Messi
[28:17] I. Understand, I understand that
[28:19] I'm not telling. I'm not saying every soccer
[28:21] player can't drink. I can't.
[28:22] I'm not saying every soccer player can't do anything.
[28:24] But there, there's pacing there. You have to pace yourself, bro.
[28:27] Barbara understand the it's his. 18th birthday bro, let the kid.
[28:31] Live, let the kid live is what's going on.
[28:33] Look at content, like this is a weird analogy, but we're looking
[28:37] at Mr. Beast, right? Like we're looking at the top of
[28:39] the line to compare our content too, because we want to get
[28:42] there. You know, we need to look at
[28:45] Messi and Ronaldo, AKA the Mr. Beasts of football to like, say
[28:49] if you want to be them, you got to act like them.
[28:51] And Ronaldo, Ronaldo, although he partied when he was young,
[28:55] always kept a very strict regimen.
[28:57] And Messi as well, they were, they were very serious about
[28:59] their game. And look at all the guys that
[29:01] fell out, like a lot of Brazilians, unfortunately, he.
[29:04] Doesn't this is not a John Duran situation where first week at
[29:08] Fender Bache shows up late to training the guys there on time
[29:12] shredded. He didn't show up overweight to
[29:14] preseason. He is completely like 6 pack and
[29:17] everything. This guy's as lean as ever.
[29:18] Know but when he's won his two bro like 400 K chains like
[29:22] you're not seeing you're not seeing other guys do.
[29:24] That bro, yes you are. There's a there's a bunch of
[29:27] footballers that have chains. Yeah, so narcissistic.
[29:29] That's that's your criticism in your mouth.
[29:32] He has a different view of it, like like I'm not.
[29:36] Who am I to tell a guy what he can do with his money?
[29:38] Bro, you made the money. This guy just signed.
[29:40] He's 18 years old. He's making 40 mil a year.
[29:42] Let him, the brother do what he wants to.
[29:43] Do I'm worried about him because I, I he's my, my favorite player
[29:46] that like in the last season, he was my favorite player.
[29:48] To watch, to talk about like this guy was just a walking
[29:52] highlight his. Life, he could do whatever he
[29:53] wants, but if we're talking about footballing, I, I, I've
[29:57] never seen a player that gets into that type of lifestyle and
[29:59] stays with that and stays and have a successful.
[30:01] Still be as a. Successful decade and 1/2 in
[30:03] football. You're gonna bring a Maradona,
[30:04] But Maradona again was one of the greatest players of agenda.
[30:08] Was inconsistent, but whatever. And he was inconsistent so.
[30:11] Semi inconsistent, he flopped at bar so people don't really
[30:14] speak. About yeah, he did, but but
[30:16] again, you have to expect, I mean, your mouth to be at the
[30:18] best like top three player in the world all the time.
[30:21] People are expecting to be the like that for his whole career.
[30:24] You won't be doing that, unfortunately, if this lifestyle
[30:27] is kept up. I'm not saying he's a terrible
[30:29] person. I'm just saying that like, you
[30:32] have to stop. Bro, you look.
[30:33] You look at other sports, Let's just I was about to do that
[30:35] parallel, Michael. Jordan.
[30:37] This guy was fucking dog like. This guy was out all the time.
[30:41] Gambling gambling drinking wine you.
[30:44] Guys, just think about it as if he's Dennis Rodman brother.
[30:48] He's just throwing a little party, bro.
[30:50] Let the guy be. OK, you think?
[30:52] Michael Jordan never had a party with.
[30:54] Maybe. Maybe when he was a clean.
[30:56] Individual who? Was 20 years old with three
[30:58] children maybe with maybe 3 or 4 championships.
[31:00] He was throwing parties like that, not a just a just turned
[31:02] 18 with no Champions League and any.
[31:04] Phobia was a mentality. Demon locked the fucking bro
[31:07] LeBron. LeBron was a lock in, demon jobs
[31:09] off. Finished, bro.
[31:10] Job's not finished. You can't be partying like you
[31:11] won the Champions League before you even do anything.
[31:14] That's all I'm saying. That's all I'm saying.
[31:16] You know, now with the number 10, Yeah, but still, like you're
[31:19] talking about bigger ambition. But when about on door then we.
[31:21] Know how talented he win. About on door then give.
[31:22] Him a couple of months then. You got to start partying.
[31:24] Yeah, all the best him though. Yeah, no, I, I, yeah.
[31:27] All the best. All the best for real kids, bro.
[31:28] I need to watch. We're concerned about it because
[31:30] we know how good he is because that's why that's.
[31:32] Because we care about that's. I'm not, I'm not mad.
[31:34] I'm. Disappointed.
[31:35] Never disappointed since CR7. Has there ever been a more like
[31:39] drip name slash number combo than Yamal 10?
[31:43] I I thought 17 was nice. I thought 17 was, I have no
[31:46] base. You gotta made it yourself.
[31:47] Cool. Yeah.
[31:48] I don't like, I don't like when when players come on.
[31:51] This is I like Phil, what Phil Foden does 'cause he has a he
[31:53] has like 4747. He made that his number.
[31:56] Trent did it also. It's I don't like that Trent
[31:59] doesn't use his number anymore because of La Liga regenation or
[32:02] something like that. But no, he was 6060 something.
[32:04] He was 6066. Yeah.
[32:06] No, no. But now he's DRIP, Yeah, because
[32:08] I don't think in La Liga you can even use 60.
[32:10] You know 12 now. I don't I don't know, but I
[32:12] don't think you could use 66. I think he's a single engine.
[32:15] But I love when players make numbers iconic for, like,
[32:18] themselves. Yeah, like.
[32:20] OK I agree, but if it's Messi at Barcelona.
[32:24] But you see, you're never gonna surpass Messi.
[32:26] Yeah. So like you're setting up.
[32:27] You're setting yourself up to be second.
[32:29] You could, you could. There was at one point someone
[32:33] started the number 10 #10 like 12 things.
[32:37] So you someone at one point starting #10 you could be the
[32:40] starter #17 at Barcelona, no? But no.
[32:42] But the 10 was named because of the position.
[32:44] Yeah, I know. I I'm not.
[32:46] You should be 7. But but then but yeah, exactly.
[32:49] You should be a winger number, yeah.
[32:51] But in my opinion, he should have gone with like a a a number
[32:54] that looked. A7 But what are you gonna do
[32:56] then you should retire #10 cuz a messy if you're not gonna let
[32:59] someone else take it. No, no, you allow someone.
[33:01] Else saying your mouth should choose a different number to
[33:03] make it. Yeah, I like 17.
[33:05] I thought it fit him pretty well and it was becoming iconic.
[33:08] Like in hockey. In hockey, Crosby made 87.
[33:11] Yeah. Like true Gretsky made 99.
[33:14] No, he was Yeah. Like all these players made
[33:16] their own numbers. So I don't know.
[33:18] I mean, it's kind of doesn't really matter, but as long as
[33:20] you go out and score some goals. Just pressure.
[33:22] Just added pressure that maybe you don't want but.
[33:24] It seems like Lamini. He's hungry.
[33:26] I don't think. He's hungry.
[33:27] He doesn't. If I didn't hate Barsa so much
[33:29] bro, that Yamal 10 would have been an easy cop.
[33:32] Easy cop. And I, I kind of like the kids
[33:34] this season. Barsa we.
[33:35] Need to see what Rashford number also he takes because that's
[33:38] going to be interesting. It's looking like a like a
[33:40] Rashford or something. Like that, Really.
[33:43] Yeah. He was 10 at he was 10 at Man
[33:47] United. He was 10 at Man United, but I I
[33:51] think he was 9 at Astonville. I think 19.
[33:53] I don't remember actually. But could also be a cop of a kid
[33:59] if I didn't hate Barcelona. Barcelona Rashford, who says no.
[34:03] Well, speak about Man United. We have we.
[34:05] This week we got linked to three big names in the transfer
[34:08] market. Sheshko Watkins Jackson ranked
[34:12] those three in terms of who would be best for Man United.
[34:16] I think cost aside a guy like we can't.
[34:18] Put cost aside, you got to include cost, let's I would say
[34:23] €80 million for Sheshko, OK, That's what it would take him to
[34:26] get out of Lexington, maybe 70 to 80.
[34:28] So let's say something like that.
[34:29] Watkins would be 50. Jackson I would say 60 or 55.
[34:32] Well, apparently I don't think 100,000,500.
[34:35] Million no, that that was a fucking fake false report.
[34:38] So it was Fabricio. No, it wasn't Fabricio.
[34:40] Yes, it was. No, it wasn't.
[34:41] It was from plenty goal I think or.
[34:43] Whatever. No Fabricio said it too.
[34:45] He said 85 mil minimum. Big factor.
[34:47] But the oh Victor Rosumenta Galatasaray, here we go, Bumba
[34:51] as we live. We shall be talking about it,
[34:53] but. Yeah, Jackson supposedly they
[34:56] might actually be interested in Garnacho the other way, so.
[34:59] Our business with Chelsea, bro. Let it, let it.
[35:01] Let that stream dry up bro. Yeah, but the issue is that we
[35:04] got scammed on Mason Mount last. Time I know but you guys are
[35:06] just scamming each other bro stop stop.
[35:08] It. Oh yeah, Sancho, stop.
[35:10] It bro yeah, but we're. Down right now, we need to.
[35:13] We got. They owe us some.
[35:14] They owe us some. Credit need to get back.
[35:16] Yeah, I need we I for that Mason mount.
[35:18] I need my get back. We go run it back.
[35:19] Yeah, so, but honestly right now.
[35:22] I don't know. What the issue?
[35:24] The issue for me is that Watkins is so proven that I think I
[35:28] would put him first on this list.
[35:31] No. He he scored what, over 15 goals
[35:33] in the Premier League three seasons in a row or Four Seasons
[35:35] in a row that that track record is unmatched and Sheshko and
[35:39] Jackson for me have too many question marks with their game.
[35:42] To to me, the the question is which of these strikers can be
[35:46] Amrim's Gio Kadesh? Because I think it seems like
[35:48] he's trying to rebuild that sporting system.
[35:51] I I actually don't even personally, I don't even think
[35:54] we need to spend that big on striker this summer.
[35:56] Like for me Sheshko 75 to 80 million seems like too much
[35:59] money for a team that like the back sevens.
[36:03] Not good or it's not like it's nothing special.
[36:06] Let's just say it's mid table Premier League quality.
[36:08] I would rather spend a bit less on striker and then invest in
[36:12] other areas of the squad. So yeah, if in that case I would
[36:16] kind of agree, I'd say Watkins. I'd say if you can get Watkins
[36:19] for 50 million, it would probably be the best of these
[36:21] three price index because you know Watkins getting you and if
[36:26] you have Cunya and Wemo and Bruno behind them, like, you
[36:29] know, he's giving you whatever, whatever goals you give.
[36:31] Him and I've looked at statistically the number of
[36:34] goals to get top four in the premise, usually 7070 to 75.
[36:38] Goals. Oh I hate this math you're about
[36:39] to do bro. But no, you have to, you have to
[36:42] start thinking about it because you're, you're not getting that
[36:43] 70 to 75 goals out of fucking oil and Garnacho and Xerxi.
[36:47] Yeah, no. But is Xerxi with Xerxi with
[36:49] Imbuemo and Kunya behind them? So if you, if you can write down
[36:52] Cunya and Emblemo, let's say for 25 to 30 goals, let's say next
[36:55] season in the Premier League, that's what they should be doing
[36:58] for 25 to 30. Let's say 11 or 12 each plus a
[37:01] bit more potentially. And then Watkins is good for 15
[37:05] to 20. So you start, you start making
[37:08] the mathematics, then that that's low key starting to get
[37:11] you a bit in front in the. That's why I said I don't like
[37:13] that math because you can't just add, you can't just add their
[37:16] expected outputs. You need to talk about the
[37:17] team's outputs and how they're going to be split amongst them.
[37:20] Those are all. Those are all pen takers.
[37:23] Yeah, but you have to understand also is that like Cunya?
[37:27] Cunya and Emblemo were pen takers, yes.
[37:29] I don't know if Watkins was a pen taker.
[37:31] I think T limits might have been.
[37:32] Watkins two seasons ago in the season where he got he beat
[37:35] Holland and the FPL member of the season where he got all
[37:38] those points. I think he was a pen taker that
[37:39] season, but I don't know. I don't know, I find Watkins is
[37:44] inconsistent bro. If you actually watch him it's a
[37:49] situation where he could bag a couple of goals here and there.
[37:52] But then realistically, throughout the game, he's a
[37:54] little bit of the. Best The best strikers in the
[37:57] world are the right now, there's no strikers in world football.
[38:03] That are consistent. For like consistent, you're
[38:05] thinking about available. It's just back in the day,
[38:09] strikers used to get like, let's say 3-4 chances a game and score
[38:13] two goals. Nowadays, the best strikers in
[38:15] the world are the guys who get like 5-6, seven chances, but
[38:19] they'll bag one or two. Like it's the guys who get a lot
[38:22] of chances who are the best strikers in the world.
[38:23] It's not, it's not like strikers aren't as clinical anymore, like
[38:28] they're not as consistent, but they're consistently getting
[38:30] chances. Top ones.
[38:32] I think, I think that's also a product of trying to find
[38:34] players that are more all round like more well-rounded, yes,
[38:37] well-rounded strikers that aren't necessarily special,
[38:40] specializing in poaching or specializing in specific things.
[38:43] So you're trying to find a super athletic, a strong striker, but
[38:48] there are there are drawbacks. He may not be as consistent in
[38:51] front of net, but he'll score. So I, I do think based off of
[38:55] Premier League experience and whatnot, I do think that Watkins
[38:57] is probably the best. Then I would say if you're
[39:00] thinking in terms of price and just hit, hit ability, it's like
[39:05] Jackson and Cesco, I would say I could.
[39:08] Jackson second. I could see Jackson second.
[39:10] I can see him being a meme at Manchester United.
[39:14] I agree he would join as a meme for sure, but I do think that
[39:17] there is. I've made fun of him on multiple
[39:19] occasions because he kind of makes it way too easy to make
[39:21] fun of him. Like stuff like like missing
[39:24] wide open Nets and stuff that makes.
[39:26] His finish? You watch him and he he is, he
[39:28] is pretty good. Like his his link up.
[39:30] I mean his like he was a lot. Better this season than he was
[39:32] he? Had an amazing form at the
[39:33] beginning of. Yeah, at a little.
[39:34] Purple power percent. I think he is.
[39:36] I think he is a good player. Would I take him for 60 mil?
[39:39] You are taking a bit of gamble, but if you can do the GAR
[39:41] Natural swap deal like that for me isn't in my opinion that's
[39:43] the best option. I agree we'd have to give a bit
[39:46] of money. Yeah.
[39:46] But it for me personally, if you can get GAR Natural involved in
[39:50] that Jackson deal, that for me might actually be #1 because I
[39:53] think that's the best value that we're going to get.
[39:55] But. Don't act like Chelsea is is
[39:57] oblivious to how much you guys want to get rid of a natural.
[40:00] Yeah, but once again, it's it's 45.
[40:03] You're not ducking from your price, it's 45 mil.
[40:05] If you want to get him out, you can get him out.
[40:07] If not. Yeah, but I mean, he's been on
[40:09] the market. Yeah, I agree.
[40:11] Like there are teams interested. It's not just.
[40:12] Chelsea, but they're not going to give you 45.
[40:14] Aston Miller would give you 4045.
[40:16] And why would Aston Villa sell a guy like Watkins?
[40:18] Because they have PSR issues. So they're just gonna go into
[40:22] the next season. Window Striker.
[40:24] Pretty much they're looking. The thing is that I think
[40:27] there's like a striker roulette once Watkins.
[40:30] Let's say if Watkins gets sold by Aston Villa, they're gonna
[40:32] vote for nuclear. Domino.
[40:33] Yeah, it's like a whole domino effect.
[40:35] But if you have PSR problems, we're gonna take a loss, no?
[40:38] What do you mean you wouldn't but Jackson?
[40:40] 'S more expensive than Watkins. Yes, but first of all, if you
[40:43] buy, I don't want to go into a whole PSR thing if let's say you
[40:46] sell Watkins for 50 mil let's. Say you get more to you.
[40:48] Get you get 50 mil, that's 50 mil pure profit by the way,
[40:50] because Watkins been there for forever.
[40:53] So that's 50 mil pure profit. For like 45 seasons.
[40:56] No, he's been there since they were in the championship.
[40:58] Who? Watkins?
[41:00] No, he he was there for at least five years.
[41:02] No, he played for Brentford in the German at least five years.
[41:04] I'm telling you at least five years.
[41:06] I I say four or five. Whatever that 50 mil is is going
[41:10] to be completely profit in the eyes of PSR.
[41:14] And then let's say you buy Jackson for 60, but that's 60
[41:17] mil. It's spread over the five years
[41:19] of his contract. So it's only 12 mil.
[41:20] So you actually come out plus 38 mil or whatever the fuck it is
[41:23] in that math. It's it's kind of stupid
[41:25] accounting math, but that's how the Premier League works.
[41:28] But basically, I think Jackson got natural swap deal.
[41:32] That would be #1 Watkins. I think if it's just straight
[41:36] cash, I think it's #1 Sheshko for me.
[41:38] It's tough. Firms, I know firms.
[41:40] FC is an enjoyer. Yeah, I'm really surprised you
[41:42] you didn't put Sheshko at least second.
[41:43] Because for me, I could easily see Sheshko he he's the riskiest
[41:48] play of the. Yeah, yeah.
[41:49] That's why. Because he could easily be
[41:51] Hoyland 2.0. No, I don't think.
[41:53] OK, maybe not Hoyland 2.0 'cause that's generationally bad.
[41:56] Yeah, but he could be a eight goal striker or he could be a 22
[42:00] goal striker. But it's hard to see, it's hard
[42:02] to see him being shit. Like Sheshko is a bags man, like
[42:06] you know you put him up top you have a cunion and bemo feeding
[42:09] him. He scored.
[42:09] Say that, but he only scored fourteen goals in the Bundeslig,
[42:11] or 15. I wouldn't say, I wouldn't say,
[42:12] I would say open that was better than than Sheshko for Leipzig.
[42:15] So you see, that's not concerning from your POV.
[42:18] I, I think we see the qualities on, on how he knows how to
[42:21] finish the the ball. Like he's a crazy finisher in
[42:24] my. Opinion he he has good ball
[42:26] striking technique, but his selection of of which when to
[42:30] use his shooting techniques is really bad.
[42:32] And he's one of those guys that as soon as he gets the ball,
[42:34] let's say there's a better option, he doesn't care.
[42:36] He just shoots the ball like it's kind of.
[42:38] But don't you want someone that has that mentality sometimes
[42:40] after watching Hoyland who doesn't even know when it's?
[42:42] Better than Hoyland, but you look at the top level strikers
[42:45] in world football like Lewandowski didn't score 4050
[42:48] goals a year by always shooting the ball.
[42:50] He he, he knows when to dish the ball and he knows when to
[42:53] actually shoot. Listen, it might bite me in the
[42:56] ass if somehow the saga of Gilchrist Arsenal becomes Cesco
[42:59] Arsenal, but by watching Cesco comps very reminiscent of Lava
[43:04] Chafiorentino. Scored a brace against Yuvet, by
[43:05] the way, in Champlis you. Did.
[43:08] Yeah, that was a one of them was a great bro, the guy.
[43:10] I remember the week after you came in and you were glazing
[43:12] him. You were, bro.
[43:14] Sheshko's insane, bro. Yeah, I know.
[43:16] I'm a sheshko, I know, but so we're not gonna lie.
[43:17] Blovich Fiorentino like the like you would watch him and you say,
[43:20] bro, this guy can score with both feet and he could score
[43:23] from anyone. Like you watch Sheshko and
[43:26] you're like, what can't this guy do?
[43:28] That's the issue. But then you get sucked into the
[43:30] trap. Like what can't this guy do?
[43:32] But then he shows up and he he can't do anything.
[43:35] So. We're also, we're also
[43:37] forgetting he's like 23/22/22. So like compared to young
[43:41] Jackson Munch, Yeah. I mean, Jackson's what?
[43:43] And he probably have the lowest wages, which is something also
[43:46] to take into. Yeah.
[43:47] Like once you take wages into account, they're probably all
[43:50] similar price deals. Yes, they are.
[43:52] Yeah, maybe. Especially Watkins.
[43:53] Watkins is like, what, 29 now? He's 30, yeah, 30, but he.
[43:56] Doesn't expect Watkins, won't expect much.
[43:58] Watkins, the cheapest one of the three in my opinion, for the
[44:00] whole package. Yeah, but he's also getting a 30
[44:02] year old which have no resale value.
[44:03] But why not? I don't even agree.
[44:05] I need I. For me personally, I would
[44:07] actually consider Mateta one of the top options on this.
[44:10] That's another option, but I don't know if he's available.
[44:12] For I don't 30 million for Mateta is greater value than any
[44:15] of the. Milan and United sharing
[44:16] transfer targets. I would I would still think
[44:18] Garnatural Jackson swap deal is still better value to be honest.
[44:21] I but I don't know if that's an option.
[44:23] But if that is an option I would still take that.
[44:25] But I think Mateta is also an underrated option.
[44:28] I'd rather me personally. I'd rather buy Mateta for
[44:31] cheaper than this and go get a centimeter or something like
[44:33] that then. Depends that you just need to
[44:35] aim for like bigger names in my opinion because like these.
[44:38] Names doesn't equal success. Yes, but it it it it's certainty
[44:43] sometimes, yeah, like an Aussie man is a certainty, although it
[44:45] would forget like the context of his but.
[44:47] But then you run into risks of can he adapt to the league?
[44:50] Like the thing that I like this summer that we've done is that
[44:53] we bought within the Premier League.
[44:54] Yeah, exactly. We played A3 four most one
[44:57] 'cause you guys in the Prem, you guys are.
[44:59] So scared to get clowns so you're just trying to keep it as
[45:01] safe as. Well, that's I, I think that's
[45:02] what, yeah, how how have Newcastle built their base on
[45:04] their squad right now? It's by buying Premier League.
[45:06] Talent. Pretty they did.
[45:07] They did risk it on a player like Isaku on the year that they
[45:10] bought him for 65 mil or 70 mil, whatever they bought him for, he
[45:14] only got six goals to assist. So it was a major risk.
[45:17] But they, they went with their intuition, you know, it paid
[45:19] off. But I think buying Premier
[45:21] League talent right now, you know what, you know what you're
[45:24] getting. So that's fair.
[45:26] I think Shesh goes last for me. Anyway, Amrim's gotten Kunya,
[45:30] he's gotten his M1, more signing, he might even get a
[45:32] striker signing. What are the expectations from
[45:34] this season? Because finishing on the same
[45:36] point as Wolves. So 2 signings for a squad in
[45:39] 15th. We are now have expectations.
[45:42] He's he's. Spent over 100 million, a
[45:44] hundred and. On two players.
[45:46] How much has he spent on these guys in Euros?
[45:48] Well, you got 75,000,000 on Wemo. 80 million.
[45:51] EUR on Wemo. Kunya was about 70.
[45:54] Kunya. No, it was. 50 I think it was
[45:55] 7070, it was £62 million or £61 million.
[45:59] OK, so more so. You've spent 150 million on two
[46:02] players and you might spend an additional, let's say 50 on a
[46:04] striker. No, no, no, Barbara, I'm not.
[46:06] I'm not rage baiting there. Should be you are rage baiting
[46:08] because stop saying there should be serious expectation.
[46:11] Am I raging? I don't think he's saying
[46:12] serious expectation. He's just saying what's the?
[46:14] I'm not asking you to win the Champions League.
[46:16] Top eight? You're not an expectation.
[46:17] Right now, yeah, that's what I would say.
[46:19] I mean, it is a lot of money though.
[46:21] Top eight, top eight, bro. Everyone spending the money in
[46:24] the pram. It's not bro.
[46:25] Sunderland. They're spending more than us.
[46:28] Yeah, sure. I.
[46:28] Spent. I spent.
[46:30] More than La Liga. It's been more than any city
[46:32] that team put. Together you, you put you you
[46:33] you just spent 150 mil. That's.
[46:36] Nothing in today's players. That's nothing that you're done.
[46:39] Nothing you're not done. You're gonna make more signings.
[46:42] Bro. We bought 2 good players.
[46:44] Both of them are two good deals. I don't give a fuck about how
[46:47] much was spent. This club needs a lot more than
[46:49] two signings. It needs a lot more.
[46:52] So we got 2 good players in the door.
[46:55] We need like 6 more. That's not gonna happen in one
[46:58] window. So, so obviously now my
[47:00] expectations for next year, I would like to just get a
[47:02] European spot. We're not in Europe this year.
[47:05] I would like to get back in the conversation of being in
[47:07] European fucking spot. 6 please. I think realistically by the end
[47:10] of transfer if you if you get me a goalie and a striker, I will
[47:13] probably say top 6. If you get me a goalie and
[47:16] striker though right now I have to say top 8 May like fighting
[47:20] for a fucking conferencing spot. Disappointing.
[47:22] I say this because I want to avoid Manchester United fans
[47:25] saying we're not blaming Amrim because he hasn't been fully
[47:28] back. But meanwhile last year when we
[47:31] said Arteta, if he doesn't win the Prem, you should sack him,
[47:34] and you said yes. But meanwhile at the end of the
[47:36] year when he didn't get a striker, you're saying, well
[47:40] bro, he didn't get a striker, bro, you need to get him a
[47:42] striker and then we'll talk. Bro, that's that's hypocrisy on
[47:44] my end. Yeah, I agree.
[47:46] That's straight hypocrisy. If if Amrim finishes 10th this
[47:49] year, yeah he should get sacked. I agree 100% hands up if he
[47:52] finishes 10th he should get sacked.
[47:54] I better not hear bro. He needs he needs this he needs
[47:57] that he needs this he needs that if he goes and sign and this is
[48:00] hinging if he goes and buy a goalie in a striker.
[48:03] I agree because I agree Onana will not get you into the top 8
[48:06] and I agree and Xerxi and Hoyland is actually.
[48:09] Xerxi is not bad. Bro Xerxi and Buemo and Kunya
[48:12] you should be able to make topic comfortable.
[48:14] I agree. Xerxi is a decent player.
[48:16] I'm not, I look, I'm not comfortable going into him as a
[48:20] star striker player like going into the season, but I would not
[48:24] be surprised if by the end of the season Xerxy cemented
[48:26] himself as a solid #9 rotational player.
[48:29] It depends. It's cool you're going to run in
[48:30] behind because Xerxy is better than he.
[48:33] Could play, he could play. No, I, I, I think that them
[48:36] playing together is actually makes a lot of sense.
[48:38] He thinks he's Flix Barsa or PSG or Luis Enrique's PSG.
[48:42] Flix Barsa literally do the complete offense.
[48:44] No, no. That's why I changed it to Luis
[48:45] Enrique. But like, you're not rotating
[48:47] like I think you need a you need a man to get in behind.
[48:50] I agree. That's what our striker is
[48:51] supposed to be complete runner in behind.
[48:53] So they're and Cunya. Cunya can run in behind.
[48:55] That's why, And Buemmo and Cunya is both of them running behind
[48:59] like they're both able to playoff bro and Buemmo can't do
[49:01] shit, bro can't run anywhere. Yeah, no, if you vent to sign
[49:04] them, Buemmo. I actually don't even know what
[49:05] the fuck. When they start talking about
[49:06] your club, that's when you want, yeah.
[49:07] When they mock. You bro literally Arsenal wanted
[49:10] to sign them. Buemmo got rejected.
[49:13] Fabrizio certified by the way you're.
[49:16] Gonna show me that after. OK, certified.
[49:18] I can find it right now actually.
[49:19] That need to touch a few on which was it?
[49:21] What would you guys say? What would you guys say right
[49:24] now is the expectations for our squad, your squad?
[49:27] I don't want your opinion because that's I know stupidity
[49:30] is gonna come out of there. Yeah, you need.
[49:32] You need. I think a.
[49:33] European A European spot, whether it's Conference League
[49:36] or Europa League, you need to be.
[49:37] There the issue. The issue is that the bar is
[49:39] right now is set so low. I know that like.
[49:43] The only realistic answer I think right now is top 8.
[49:46] Like if you guys finish at around 10:12 but you see like
[49:49] and I would say no, you have to push top 6.
[49:51] I think literally last podcast or maybe 2 podcasts ago Varva
[49:54] was saying Varva was shitting on Chelsea for saying the standards
[49:57] have dropped. So once they they win like a
[49:59] global cup then all of a sudden it's an achievement.
[50:02] I think we should hold Man United to the same standard.
[50:04] Yes, they've been shit for a couple of years now, but but we
[50:06] still have Chelsea and we have these other teams.
[50:12] I acknowledge we are run like absolute ass.
[50:15] Yes we're on, we're into the ground, we are.
[50:17] That's what I'm saying by stupid idiots.
[50:21] OK, check. Chelsea fans don't acknowledge
[50:24] that. That's the issue.
[50:26] Like like. Three years ago they would have
[50:27] said what the fuck are we doing? Even if we finished top eight
[50:31] this year, whatever top seven, we're still ran by idiots.
[50:34] It's not I'm not I'm not here saying Oh my God, bro, we're
[50:38] finishing. We finished 7th.
[50:39] This squad's ready. Let's go.
[50:41] Let's say let's buy the center midfielder of our dreams and
[50:43] then we're going to be competing for the Prem.
[50:45] But. If you're mad if you call your
[50:46] management idiots, then how can you back like the Amarim
[50:49] project? Because Amarim is so I'm
[50:53] together by personal opinion that last year no matter who we
[50:56] appointed it was going down the shit hole.
[50:58] That's my personal opinion no matter who is manager.
[51:01] Now 10 Hog was a special case because this guy literally
[51:03] destroyed our entire club, but that's a whole other
[51:06] conversation. He was higher than I'm room when
[51:07] he left so. OK, cool, higher in the table,
[51:09] but our whole squad's 35 making way more money than they should.
[51:12] But whatever, that's a whole other conversation.
[51:14] Wasn't he responsible for Lenny Oro and for?
[51:16] Responsible all he did was fucking oh we're signing Lenny
[51:20] Euro OK, thank you guys that's all he did if it were up to him
[51:23] we'd be signing some fucking random Dutch guy from there the
[51:25] visa that would be playing three games for IX last year 35 mil
[51:29] exactly money laundering scheme by the way but yeah I I
[51:34] personally think that no matter who was manager last year was
[51:38] going to be in for one. Let's just say and Amrim didn't
[51:42] get us, he got Dorgu in January. That was his.
[51:45] That was you're gonna enjoy that.
[51:46] That was his save your season signing.
[51:48] So so now I I think Wemur and Kunya are amazing transfers, so
[51:53] I'm expecting at least a because.
[51:54] Doesn't make Man United amazing. No, but when you're spending
[51:58] that much on 2 certified players in the Premier League at least.
[52:00] And we're putting 1. In the European spot.
[52:02] And we're playing one game a week, we have to remember.
[52:04] This exam is important now. Amrim has one week every single
[52:07] game. There should be no fitness
[52:10] issues. There should be no.
[52:11] Yeah, one game, yeah. Like the word This is our Conte.
[52:13] That's one. You might actually do it.
[52:15] Fuck it, we're doing a title charge.
[52:17] OK, listen. If you don't finish Tonio Conte,
[52:20] you have inspired me. There we go, the blueprint.
[52:22] I'm saying top 6 should be, should be definitely 100% so.
[52:25] The tractor window closed today. We should be making top 6.
[52:28] That's great. That team has not changed.
[52:29] That should be your standards though, but yeah.
[52:31] OK, the standards and the reality are you've added.
[52:33] Kunion and Wemo are great players.
[52:35] We've all watched them last season like they're amazing
[52:37] players. Yes, we have some expectations.
[52:39] But there's also nine other positions on that field that are
[52:42] still signing we. Still, if transfer window ended
[52:45] today, we still have Rasmus Oil in the top and we still have
[52:49] banana in there, yeah. Well, if you €60 million or some
[52:51] shit, 60 or 7. Yeah, that's a developmental
[52:53] process. €67, turned it to 70. Now of course, fuck it, we're
[52:57] just making up numbers now. It's like 55 or 6055 million
[53:01] pounds. 67, it's not pounds. That was EUR.
[53:04] No, it wasn't OK. But what I'm.
[53:07] Trying to bummer busy you give him a statical look up and.
[53:10] He's still Hoyland on the squad. They still he's.
[53:12] Not starting. Doesn't matter, he's still
[53:14] taking up a. Spot, they still have €60
[53:15] million transfer. They still have Garnacho on the
[53:17] squad. They still have.
[53:19] Garnacho's a fucking Garnacho would be like the top three
[53:22] player. 52 mill pounds. So what is that?
[53:25] 6060 something mill EUR Yeah. Also wasn't pounds.
[53:29] Who's this? 52 mil pounds, yeah.
[53:31] Euro EUR Pounds. Bro Euro, I don't know, you guys
[53:34] laugh at that transfer. That was a fucking I won't give
[53:37] a 10 out of 10, nine out of 10. This guy for that guy, really
[53:39] incredible. He's been incredible preseason.
[53:42] The first game this guy added, this guy added a passing bag.
[53:45] He I'm Lion King. He's looking like that passing
[53:48] bag. He's he's looking like Van Dyke.
[53:50] Let's go by we can't. We can judge off preseason.
[53:52] I agree. Listen, he's way better than
[53:53] Lisa. Aston Villa lost 3 nothing to
[53:55] some. What happened to the What the
[53:57] fuck is Lisandro? Like I would say I don't trust
[53:59] his judgement because what he said about Lisandro, we put him
[54:01] over Van Dyke. He also put out a hover Van
[54:03] Dyke. Let's not.
[54:03] Forget what his brother also said.
[54:05] About. Yeah, yeah.
[54:06] Well, Millie said #1. At the time, Millie was really
[54:09] on that wave. Yeah, still is.
[54:11] That's not. Well, I really like that Lis and
[54:13] Lisandro was good, he was fantastic.
[54:15] I'm going to protect the 57 center back.
[54:17] Now it's understandable that I said this stupid shit, but
[54:20] Millie also said 10 hog the meeting the heir of Sir Alex
[54:23] Ferguson. Did not say that he did.
[54:25] I don't remember saying that. Said I would love him as my
[54:27] manager. He said that.
[54:28] What the fuck were you? This is misinformation.
[54:31] I'm not believing this, I'm not believing this.
[54:33] I don't believe that I will. Find the video I will find the
[54:36] video so. How do you know this?
[54:38] I know I watched a clip because I couldn't believe it.
[54:42] I could not believe. I can't believe it either that I
[54:43] said that. It's crazy work.
[54:47] But yeah. Anyways, we're going to be in
[54:49] bro. Some standards that's we're.
[54:50] Going to be in for a a very entertaining season.
[54:53] Anyways, what happened to shame? Shame got thrown out the window
[54:56] when Dynaud left. No, no, no, I know we're ass.
[55:01] But Chelsea needs to win everything.
[55:02] Chelsea also spent like double the.
[55:06] Amount of money that we spent in five years?
[55:08] Yeah, impossible spent, yeah, 2 billion double of Man United.
[55:13] Yeah, yeah, maybe more. Impossible or double any team?
[55:16] Any Prem team, Other Prem teams, yes Man United, yes double firms
[55:20] they spend up 6. 150 million in one fucking window.
[55:22] OK, that's OK. And what about you?
[55:25] And that's our, that's probably our Netspend in the last five
[55:28] years. But we looked it up.
[55:29] Who the? Fuck, have you sold no one?
[55:31] None of. Our players have value.
[55:33] Exactly. No one wants any of our players.
[55:36] No, I'm saying their netspend is twice as worse.
[55:38] Chelsea. Yeah, meanwhile we should be
[55:40] making top six with all these players no one fucking wants.
[55:42] A fucking Chelsea fan's gonna come up to you and say bro, 650
[55:45] is not that bad when we had 290 million in expenditure.
[55:48] And all those. Yeah, bro, what's 650 -?
[55:50] 290 you still spend over 300 million in one.
[55:52] Transfer, yeah. And all those contracts are like
[55:53] 8 years. So if you amortize that over 8
[55:55] years, yeah, actually. Like and then my and then your
[55:56] player gets caught using PEDs and you lost an 8 year contract.
[55:59] 100 mil play. That's actually the worst
[56:01] transfer in all sports history. Yeah. 100 mil and the guy
[56:04] literally doesn't show up. Odd enough did air and then
[56:08] suspended yeah for four years that's like.
[56:09] Potential. Too doesn't get talked about.
[56:11] That's like you buy Rockefeller Plaza and you plan to put up the
[56:15] a new Statue of Liberty and then you hire a construction company
[56:18] and you give them $100 million U.S. dollars and then they.
[56:22] Just build you a shack. And tell them that you're done.
[56:25] And they build you a shack, and then the city says, yeah, shut
[56:28] this place down. It's not up the code.
[56:30] Yeah. Not up the code and you lose the
[56:31] land too and. You lose the land.
[56:33] Exactly. But he can come back before you.
[56:35] Yeah. Terrible.
[56:37] Anyway, talking about big spending, Liverpool.
[56:39] Liverpool, they've been doing some pretty big spending.
[56:42] Liverpool spend over 260 million this transfer window.
[56:46] I think there should be an expectation that they should win
[56:48] the league again. Easily so.
[56:51] Arsenal's finishing second again is what I'm hearing.
[56:53] No, no expectations. The alarms expectations are made
[56:55] to be broken but the expectations should be for the
[56:58] back-to-back. If you added 260 mil on to what
[57:02] they had last season, winning the league should be a guarantee
[57:05] in Liverpool fan eyes. Liverpool's fan size.
[57:08] I think they're by far they should be the favorites right
[57:12] now considered by everyone. They're the most well-rounded
[57:14] team in the league, that's not a debate and I do think that
[57:16] they've they haven't weakened from last year and they won by a
[57:20] very comfortable margin. Barbara thinks that losing Trent
[57:23] is worse than losing salad, so. Yeah, but I mean replacing him
[57:26] with verts and fucking eketike and.
[57:28] From from Pong for Bong. Kirkez, I mean.
[57:30] This team they built. They yeah, it only takes 300
[57:32] mill to replace them, but yeah, they did it.
[57:34] I kind of, I don't know, my hands up.
[57:36] They kind of they cooked. They compass their window.
[57:38] Yeah. They're telling me they wouldn't
[57:39] have spent 300 mill if Salah left.
[57:42] Yeah, but once again, they probably would have had to go
[57:44] and sign like Alize to replace him.
[57:47] Would have been very nice. Alize plus someone else and
[57:50] then, yeah, you you replace Tyler.
[57:51] Anyways, they're cooking. They're gonna win the league
[57:52] again, unfortunately, and nothing to do to stop them.
[57:56] Listen, the Premier League could be unpredictable sometimes.
[57:58] We've seen it this season. We saw did.
[58:00] Did you think that? No, but.
[58:01] One thing that one thing that does happen year by year is
[58:04] Arsenal finish second, like everything else, is
[58:06] unpredictable. But you know that one, you could
[58:08] write it off in preseason. They got their striker at least.
[58:10] Yeah, so they went from 2nd to 2nd with the striker.
[58:14] But you know what, at least every season we go into it.
[58:16] Knowing 99 is not going to be gone.
[58:18] No, no, I didn't say that. I didn't say that.
[58:21] See, I'm costly conditioning you, you know that.
[58:24] I'm about to rage by you. Yeah, but no, I was going to say
[58:26] at least Arsenal fans going to every season saying we're we're
[58:28] going to win the league. Not like you guys over at
[58:30] Manchester United saying I'm OK if we get top eight.
[58:33] We only have one time because I go into every year knowing
[58:35] Arsenal's not going to win the league.
[58:37] OK. So it's OK.
[58:39] OK, at least at least I'm going to watch my team win games.
[58:42] Classical conditioning. It might.
[58:43] It might actually like you guys are going to sound stupid.
[58:46] You guys are going to say it. You guys are going to say it.
[58:48] You guys are going to you. Guys are going to say it you.
[58:51] Guys are going to. Be stupid man, you might have a
[58:54] better chance of winning the league in Arsenal because
[58:56] Arsenal. What the fuck do you mean It's
[58:58] just bro just. How do you go from cucks?
[59:01] We'll be cucks. Exactly.
[59:03] We're going to finish and I hope the top. 8 literally the top 8.
[59:06] Yeah, but Arsenal have like just from club history wise, like
[59:10] like just what their club is. They literally have a 0 percent
[59:13] chance of winning league. We have a .1.
[59:16] Like there's a Leicester City chance we actually win.
[59:18] Leicester City, That's where you put yourselves now.
[59:20] Leicester City. It's better than Arsenal.
[59:22] Their city. Leicester City have more friends
[59:25] in the last 20 years than Arsenal so.
[59:28] Not wrong. If I ever sit here, guys, if I
[59:30] ever sit here and tell you guys, I hope this season we make top
[59:34] 8. Just shoot me on.
[59:36] Site on site. Well, that's what your
[59:38] expectation should be, so. Yeah, just shoot me on site.
[59:40] Millie. Millie, I'm putting it up to you
[59:41] find. Me.
[59:43] Bro Igor 2 doors manager by the. Friends is closer, nose goes.
[59:48] But if they're still linked to EZAC too, which is the absolute
[59:52] crazy part, but we can get into that later.
[59:55] But yeah Liverpool, Liverpool at bar 5 are by far the most well
[1:00:00] run club in the world. I don't even think it's a debate
[1:00:02] to be honest at this point. They they spend $0.00 last
[1:00:06] summer, wipe the league and now they lose Trent which hands up
[1:00:10] terrible move. Yeah let's just go replace some
[1:00:14] in aggregate with way better players.
[1:00:16] By the way, did you see an FPL versus only 8.5 mil?
[1:00:19] Which is crazy. It's a cop right there.
[1:00:21] Yeah, that's, that's crazy because that seems kind of.
[1:00:23] That's a first rounder. I'm on the draft.
[1:00:26] In the draft. I'm so I'm so good for the
[1:00:28] draft. Well, this is just gonna be this
[1:00:29] draft's gonna be crazy. Yeah, there's so many.
[1:00:31] Like, bro, where does Eketike go?
[1:00:32] Where does verts go? All these.
[1:00:34] I can't wait. I mean, Liverpool assets are
[1:00:36] always good. I'm not, I'm not taking any
[1:00:38] risky, any risky players. I'm gonna try to avoid taking
[1:00:41] risky players. I don't know about you guys.
[1:00:43] That's like. You got to take some risks.
[1:00:45] No depends who I I'd rather take risks on like like last season
[1:00:49] like a mente. Yeah.
[1:00:50] But like, I'm not taking a risk in the second.
[1:00:52] Round holy cock. What?
[1:00:55] I'm I'm risk averse. I actually I'm gonna take the
[1:00:58] safe off. Give over I.
[1:01:00] Mean but sometimes the the safe off.
[1:01:02] I'll take a minte, you know. OK, where?
[1:01:04] Where? Where would you take?
[1:01:06] Frisky today feeling I'm feeling a risky today.
[1:01:08] I'm gonna be Minte in the last round.
[1:01:11] I'm a risk averse person. Where the what?
[1:01:13] Where would you take a Kitika? I'm not telling you.
[1:01:15] Why would I not information before the draft?
[1:01:18] So Kitika is not you're a cut. I would take him last pick
[1:01:21] actually. So you're a.
[1:01:22] Cut too much risk. This is the thing, when you play
[1:01:24] for Liverpool and you're probably gonna be the starter,
[1:01:26] there's no risk to. See, Nunez scored a hat trick
[1:01:28] though today. And yeah, I know little buzz cut
[1:01:29] Nunez come back. I don't know.
[1:01:32] With the verts 10 #10 playing him in I just.
[1:01:34] Want to guarantee the? Mix of a Millie A Millie FPL
[1:01:37] signing. Millie's gonna be signing up.
[1:01:38] Man City players forgetting about the pep roulette.
[1:01:42] They think I'm misinformed. Millie the pep roulette's scary.
[1:01:45] It's a scary, scary game, you signed Marmouchen.
[1:01:47] The second I'm a fuck up place, I'm a fucking playing.
[1:01:49] Millie has never felt the the you will never feel it again
[1:01:54] because he left the league. But Kevin De Bruyne available in
[1:01:56] like the third round and you're staring at him like, bro, how is
[1:01:59] KDV available? But then you understand, oh,
[1:02:01] he's only going to play 18 games.
[1:02:03] Yeah, you don't understand. You're staring at Katie B.
[1:02:06] Or Israel Harvey Barnes and you have to make a decision FPL like
[1:02:11] a lot of the logic side of it like the the rating Katie B over
[1:02:15] this guy out of the out of the window does not matter.
[1:02:17] Yeah, that makes sense. It's all team bro.
[1:02:19] You will never like this season. I hope you know you're catching
[1:02:21] yourself on a Thursday evening. Friday morning looking at
[1:02:24] refreshing Twitter seeing if one fucker out there leaked the
[1:02:26] Brentford Man City lineup. Yes.
[1:02:28] Makes sense, I'm ready for it. Great.
[1:02:31] Great conversation. I really don't think, thanks for
[1:02:34] the energy. I really don't think you're
[1:02:37] ready. Got it.
[1:02:38] Yeah, I'll give you a couple of pages to follow on on Twitter.
[1:02:42] There's only a couple. FPL wizard Let me let me see if
[1:02:44] I got one of these bitches I. Listen to the podcast.
[1:02:46] I got two guys, I got two guys. But the problem is I think
[1:02:49] everyone started catching on. We're all listening to the same
[1:02:51] shit. And then you see NDD getting
[1:02:53] getting people trying to pick him up in the fucking waiver on
[1:02:57] match week 27. Real ones going to like Reddit
[1:02:59] and they search through there bro.
[1:03:01] Reddit doesn't have a good draft community.
[1:03:03] Not draft but FPL community pretty.
[1:03:05] Good. Yeah, FPL.
[1:03:06] Make sure to take a look. I'm showing milling my analytics
[1:03:09] guy for. My quant.
[1:03:12] Yeah, my quant. I don't have good ones on me.
[1:03:15] That's like the. Big Short The Big Short Quant I.
[1:03:18] Speak English. I came to 2nd that game
[1:03:22] competition. That was a really good movie,
[1:03:25] yeah. But yeah, I think the minimum
[1:03:28] expectation, look, it would not surprise me if Man City came
[1:03:32] back and won the league this year.
[1:03:34] It wouldn't surprise me. You're a cook.
[1:03:35] I I think there, won't I? I told you that we should not
[1:03:39] count Man City out of the out of the Yeah, the title race.
[1:03:42] And you told me. You told me.
[1:03:44] No, No. I.
[1:03:45] Mean if I had chance, if I had to do, if I had to do a
[1:03:48] percentage, if I had to do percentage wise, I think I'm
[1:03:52] going to reach me decide. Like Liverpool are probably 60%,
[1:03:57] Arsenal are 20%, Man City are 20% right now.
[1:04:00] If I had to do it, everyone else is 0.
[1:04:02] Newcastle has Newcastle has 2%. So, so Manchester United have
[1:04:05] over 20% chance when in Penry, Yeah, yeah.
[1:04:08] Got it. Bro at least leave at least 15
[1:04:11] minutes between your contradictions.
[1:04:13] The the intervals are getting way too close.
[1:04:14] Agendas rage. Literally said rage bait aside.
[1:04:17] Like like now he's accommodating for the short term memory loss.
[1:04:20] You understand? Yeah.
[1:04:21] Usually if you let it simmer for a bit, people forget what you
[1:04:23] said. But Nah, it's like still fresh.
[1:04:25] In the mind. Said rage bait aside.
[1:04:26] Somebody's sitting at a a traffic light right now and they
[1:04:29] got both of your tanks before the light turned green.
[1:04:31] Exactly. They heard both of your
[1:04:32] contradictions in one. Someone's listening in to it in
[1:04:34] the bathroom and they still not. If you were at the light for
[1:04:36] fucking 15 minutes, just drive through that bitch.
[1:04:39] I don't give a. Some people wait at stop signs
[1:04:40] and wait I. Don't know that was like 15
[1:04:43] minutes ago. If you're still at a stop sign
[1:04:45] for 15 minutes I got bro just drive just.
[1:04:48] Pull over, bro. It's turning left on a rubber
[1:04:50] brass and you're stuck. You know you're stuck in the
[1:04:51] back of the line. You don't know.
[1:04:53] You don't know what? You don't know bro.
[1:04:56] Something else we don't know. Where is ESAT going?
[1:04:58] I mean, there's been rumors, there was rumors to to Liverpool
[1:05:01] and and those rumors still remain somehow.
[1:05:04] They sign a striker for 95,000,000 and then now they're
[1:05:06] still in the market for devious. It's absolutely devious.
[1:05:11] But I'm hearing Ali Al may be a more concrete option or a
[1:05:15] seriously concrete option because supposedly they want 100
[1:05:18] and 32150 mil for Isaac Inzagi. Your boy is looking lick in his
[1:05:24] chop saying how am I going for? What have I done to deserve such
[1:05:27] an upgrade from? Generosity.
[1:05:29] Yeah, what have I done to deserve such generosity going
[1:05:31] from Altaro to Isaac? He's a top.
[1:05:33] He's a top three. That's a statement.
[1:05:36] Striker in the world, but but they have they have money and
[1:05:40] you're and you're PSR man and a team that has the money to spend
[1:05:44] but not the PSR flexibility to spend 150 million would allow
[1:05:49] them to spend like whatever they want egregious amounts of money
[1:05:52] they can go in the market and get whoever they want so.
[1:05:56] Like who? Who can Newcastle even sign to
[1:05:58] replace Isaac? Maybe not directly replacing,
[1:06:02] but like you were. Able to buy a Ekitika?
[1:06:05] Yeah, then who's a complete quicker?
[1:06:06] Stylistically, like the same exact player almost
[1:06:09] Stylistically, then maybe you could argue it makes sense.
[1:06:13] But bro, he's acts. He's acts like the Aguero of Man
[1:06:17] City. It's like you can't sell them.
[1:06:19] But what if you sold them and then you went to go get, let's
[1:06:21] just say Sheshko and Rodrigo, like, it's nice they have the
[1:06:27] money to do that. You have to convince Rodrigo to
[1:06:29] move to fucking button fuck nowhere Newcastle from.
[1:06:32] From Madrid, from. Yeah, but big move.
[1:06:34] Yes, an idea. Luis Diaz, I don't know.
[1:06:37] Luis Diaz the The Colombian is not gonna want to live in
[1:06:40] Newcastle. He lived in Liverpool.
[1:06:42] Liverpool. 'S on the water like Liverpool.
[1:06:44] Actually, Newcastle's on the water.
[1:06:46] Is it? It's a.
[1:06:47] Newcastle on the water, I believe.
[1:06:48] Yeah, Newcastle upon Time, I think some shit, I don't know,
[1:06:53] warming shit. Pontine.
[1:06:54] That's like World War 2. But it is for.
[1:06:56] Just sunk and now Liverpool the water and now newcastles on the
[1:06:58] port of the water. But I think, I think you can't
[1:07:03] come into a club saying we want to take this to the top of the
[1:07:06] sport and and your Golden Boots, it's like it's a sign of intent
[1:07:11] of you're not really trying to be Man City, you're not trying
[1:07:15] to be the top club. But they didn't realize about
[1:07:18] all these PSR rules when they came in to buy.
[1:07:20] They're not. They don't have struggles with
[1:07:21] PSR right now. They don't right now, but they
[1:07:24] also they don't have struggles because they're not trying to
[1:07:27] spend 150 million someone. Yeah, but you, they, they have
[1:07:29] done a bit of. Look at all the oil money clubs
[1:07:31] they they all took teams that already had history and had
[1:07:34] revenues like have revenue that's outside of footballing.
[1:07:37] Like PSG is big was always the biggest team in way before they
[1:07:41] bought them. They were.
[1:07:41] Wait, were they the biggest team?
[1:07:43] In France, no. But Newcastle before, like in
[1:07:46] the years right before PSG got bought, were they the biggest
[1:07:48] team? I think like I'll say was
[1:07:50] bigger. In the 1990s, I'm pretty sure,
[1:07:52] or 2000s, or Newcastle was like one of the most valuable teams
[1:07:57] in England. Like they're a club with history
[1:08:00] in England. Yeah, but they don't have the
[1:08:01] cheer followers. Right now they don't, but you
[1:08:04] develop those how? Do you now?
[1:08:05] Now you do. Now they do.
[1:08:07] Yeah, I agree. But you develop those by buying
[1:08:09] big name players like Mbappe for, yeah, PSG.
[1:08:11] Yeah, especially exactly is a big player, bro.
[1:08:14] Yeah, like, especially for like the newer generation of fans
[1:08:16] that like they want to pick a team, but maybe they want to be
[1:08:19] a bit more unique and don't want to go for like those traditional
[1:08:22] teams. Like Newcastle was right there
[1:08:24] for the taking for them and they they had a very solid team that
[1:08:26] was competitive. So I'm sure as a a new fan to
[1:08:29] the Premier League, like Newcastle was definitely one of
[1:08:31] your teams that you would have. Wanted they want players that
[1:08:33] they play with in FIFA, they want guys that they can like
[1:08:35] follow on Instagram. Yeah, of course they want.
[1:08:37] And I just think Newcastle doesn't have that PR yet
[1:08:41] developed. But I, I do think that they,
[1:08:42] they've added pieces as they've gone that like really make them
[1:08:46] a top. Like, we see it.
[1:08:47] We see it on the discord. There are Newcastle fans in the
[1:08:50] discord. Yeah, like like it's not if I
[1:08:54] honestly, if I was starting from scratch, probably wouldn't be
[1:08:58] Newcastle, but they would be on the short list of clubs I would
[1:09:01] probably follow. OK, who would you guys buy if
[1:09:04] you were, if you had the oil money, let's say like which club
[1:09:08] would you buy right now that you think you can turn around and
[1:09:11] win the Champions League within like 10?
[1:09:12] Years for profit. Like no, none of these guys are
[1:09:14] for profit. Prestige for prestige.
[1:09:17] Win the Champions League in 10 years.
[1:09:18] Yeah, let's see, like which which team would you buy?
[1:09:20] And United. Enter.
[1:09:24] I'm begging. Me a lot.
[1:09:25] Those teams can't. And.
[1:09:27] You can't say your own club, OK? You can't say your own club.
[1:09:31] Yeah, but you can't even say a secondary club.
[1:09:33] So you're saying like, what are you saying exactly?
[1:09:36] Why did they go buy Newcastle? They can't.
[1:09:37] You can't just go out and buy United.
[1:09:40] But bro Newcastle is high is very well run like the the after
[1:09:43] the top 6. I think they're the highest
[1:09:45] earning or Aston Villa. Like you said after the top 6.
[1:09:47] Yeah, but once again, you can break into the top. 6 And this
[1:09:50] is also their third season with the new ownership.
[1:09:53] Yeah, I think give it a couple of more years, they're going to
[1:09:57] be a easy like a top 4. Every year example I'll give,
[1:09:59] like, Athletico Madrid wouldn't be a good buy because, you know,
[1:10:02] you can never crack Barcelona in Real Madrid even if you have
[1:10:04] that oil money because they're just too far away.
[1:10:07] So like would you go and say yeah, like with Como did?
[1:10:10] If the fallen giant almost someone that like a team that
[1:10:15] had like still has a level of. Like Newcastle make top four,
[1:10:19] top five for the next 10 years. Let's say the decade like you
[1:10:23] are. You're going to break into that
[1:10:25] top six years. I'm not talking about, I'm not
[1:10:27] talking about that. I'm just saying who would you
[1:10:28] buy? Like I would buy a Dorman.
[1:10:30] No, because I know I can with, with oil money and in the
[1:10:34] Bundesliga. I can I, I think in 10 years
[1:10:37] with that level of money you can pass by.
[1:10:38] Her yeah, but I, I think automatically you're looking at
[1:10:41] the Prem because you're getting more money every year for from
[1:10:43] viewerships yeah like. PSG when they bought them the
[1:10:47] league, like yeah, they didn't buy a Premier League team.
[1:10:49] Yeah, but Liger is on a is on a fall off as well.
[1:10:52] Like he's on an upturn. They you could say that, but I
[1:10:56] find the league as a whole is definitely going downwards if
[1:10:58] you want. PSG was bought with with the
[1:11:00] intention of. Inter Miami.
[1:11:02] Like making that a singular entity like as a global
[1:11:05] superpower. And they got the Champions
[1:11:07] League now. Yeah, I wouldn't, I wouldn't buy
[1:11:09] PSG now though. They're at the top.
[1:11:10] No, but when they were when they were at the like, not the
[1:11:12] bottom, when they were like a a secondary league earn team that
[1:11:16] had a couple legends pass through their ranks, but they
[1:11:19] weren't necessarily winners that I.
[1:11:21] Mean you're getting a Parisian team.
[1:11:23] Exactly Roma. Roma has insane potential but
[1:11:28] once again I think Premier League is is where the money's.
[1:11:30] At Yeah, but he's speaking as if you have like, fuck you money.
[1:11:34] But once again, there's always financial rules.
[1:11:35] Now there's too many financial rules.
[1:11:37] You can't, you can't pull a Man City and just fucking spend,
[1:11:39] spend, spend. Now you can't do it.
[1:11:40] Anymore unless your league has that revenue, so you could kind
[1:11:42] of. Hide it the youth.
[1:11:43] I guess you need to maybe pick a.
[1:11:45] But Chelsea. But but the issue is Chelsea
[1:11:47] would never be where they are now without Roman Abramovich
[1:11:49] coming in 2005 and spending a billion dollars.
[1:11:51] That's true, Dawn when there was no financial rules.
[1:11:54] See back then you could do it to any team when Roman Abramovich,
[1:11:58] like Chelsea were mid table before Roman Abramovich.
[1:12:00] They put those rules because of Roman Abramovich, Yes, at the
[1:12:03] end of the day, so. What I'm saying like you need a,
[1:12:05] you need to pick a if you're gonna pick a prime club, pick a
[1:12:07] team that has good youth Academy because then you have at least
[1:12:09] you have expenditures you can offset.
[1:12:10] Yeah, but then you have to start thinking of like, sometimes
[1:12:13] teams with good academies are in very small cities.
[1:12:15] Like like your chances are you're probably looking at like
[1:12:19] a London club you would need to purchase like like Spurs, bro.
[1:12:23] Commercially they make a fuck ton of money, no.
[1:12:25] Spurs is valued as good as Spurs is a no.
[1:12:27] It's a bad investment because it's already.
[1:12:29] Spurs is the most profitable football club in the Prem.
[1:12:31] Yeah, but if I'm seeing to purchase Spurs right now, they,
[1:12:33] they were, they're worth like a shit ton of money.
[1:12:35] There are they might arguably be worth one of the most in the
[1:12:38] Prem. Yeah, they the new stadium.
[1:12:40] They they make them by far the most money in the Prem by far,
[1:12:45] then they're worth like profit. They're worth more than Chelsea
[1:12:50] or Liverpool. Chelsea no, because they sold.
[1:12:53] I don't think both. They sold for a 6 billion value
[1:12:56] or 4 billion. Valuation is crazy.
[1:12:58] Which Anfield? Anfield's not that old either.
[1:13:00] But Fenway no like. They have, they have legacy.
[1:13:02] It's the issue that it's legacy. Like it's like the Lakers, The
[1:13:06] Lakers sold for 10 billion. Like it's just because it's the
[1:13:08] Lakers. Yeah, did you guys see the video
[1:13:12] of speed? Off topic speed apparently like
[1:13:14] he was. He's with a pug by and.
[1:13:17] Yeah, they found an ex owner of the Lakers and gave him a ring.
[1:13:22] The guy was just wearing a Lakers championship ring and
[1:13:24] gave it the speed and speed's like talking to the guy and he's
[1:13:26] like, I'm I sold him for 10 billion.
[1:13:28] He's just one of the brothers. I think that ended up one of the
[1:13:30] Bus brothers. Yeah, own it.
[1:13:32] The $10 billion dealing. Well, even your brothers are
[1:13:35] rich. Yeah, exactly.
[1:13:36] Everyone rich now? Exactly.
[1:13:38] This is a tough question. What's the question?
[1:13:41] Isak Isak is going. My prediction is he's staying at
[1:13:45] Newcastle. My prediction, he's actually
[1:13:48] going to sign a contract renewal.
[1:13:49] Well, now that EKTK is is on his way to Liverpool, I don't know.
[1:13:52] There's not really anything except Al Hilal.
[1:13:56] Liverpool are still going to if, if, if Newcastle are open to
[1:13:59] selling him like they say, OK, we'll think about selling him
[1:14:01] Newcastle. Liverpool will actually buy him.
[1:14:03] But at 130 million. Yeah, they they're not afraid.
[1:14:06] I mean listen, his the best fits going outside of Al Hilal
[1:14:10] Liverpool. If Barcelona wasn't broke, I'd
[1:14:12] say real. Madrid.
[1:14:14] Oh, we go real. They can't.
[1:14:15] Well, why? Bro you need a striker That's
[1:14:19] that's that's squad. I mean I.
[1:14:21] Don't need an out and out striker bro, you need an out and
[1:14:25] out striker. Brother, you cannot have
[1:14:26] Vinicius and Bape regional. Decisions need to be made.
[1:14:31] I don't know what to tell you. Yeah, yeah.
[1:14:33] Many you're out. Because right now that that's
[1:14:34] not that ain't working. So decisions need to be made.
[1:14:38] So Vinita Ali Lal. OK, we.
[1:14:41] Make Ali Lal happy, or I mean, if Manchester United were a
[1:14:44] bunch of cocks, I'd say Isaac go to.
[1:14:46] Isaac, one more year. That's like the cat.
[1:14:49] Give me one more year. I'm gonna get you out of there.
[1:14:51] I'm. Gonna get you.
[1:14:52] I'm gonna get you out of there. Just.
[1:14:55] Wait there, just give me one more year.
[1:14:57] Get you? Out I'm gonna make.
[1:14:58] CL this year. I'm gonna get you out next year.
[1:15:01] Oh, true. Yeah, he doesn't want to go to.
[1:15:02] Yeah, he would, definitely. Want You wouldn't want to go to
[1:15:04] Man United right now. Yeah, he is a Champions League.
[1:15:06] No, I'm not. I'm not oblivious like I know.
[1:15:09] Yeah, this isn't, this isn't 10 years ago when we're able to
[1:15:11] sign PUG, but when we're playing in Europa League, like we're
[1:15:13] able to snatch UVA's golden generation like player right out
[1:15:17] of their hands. Oh.
[1:15:18] It's important because you see, it's not rage bait.
[1:15:21] We don't. We it.
[1:15:23] Literally happens who we picked UVA's Most Valuable Player ever,
[1:15:28] potentially ever. Paul Pogba the player.
[1:15:31] And straight snatched into a Europa League Man United.
[1:15:33] Wait, the same Paul Pogba that we got for free from Manchester
[1:15:36] United? Bro, you literally got our
[1:15:38] fucking sloppy seconds like we were done like you literally got
[1:15:41] we literally no, no, no, for five years.
[1:15:44] We. No, you're talking about the
[1:15:45] second move. We're talking.
[1:15:46] About the first one, brother. Oh, so we developed him.
[1:15:51] We developed him and sold it for fucking gods.
[1:15:54] He sold you for nothing. So basically I forgot about it,
[1:15:57] you know? Hey.
[1:15:59] Listen, you're Dean Hoisen. Listen, yeah, but we got.
[1:16:02] Dean Hoisen before we came. Millie, Millie, Millie, Millie.
[1:16:04] You're going to have a youngster you don't want.
[1:16:06] You don't want him anymore. I don't want him. 1718.
[1:16:08] You ship him to UVA, then then then we turn him into the best
[1:16:13] midfielder the generation's ever seen.
[1:16:14] Sounds terrible. And then you buy them from me
[1:16:16] for 100 million. No, no, listen, listen and.
[1:16:18] Then he shits the best. That's really not what happened,
[1:16:20] OK. That's So what?
[1:16:21] Happens. He was literally the best
[1:16:23] midfielder potentially on the planet.
[1:16:25] Juventus. A Champions League finalist.
[1:16:27] Juventus. Barrington's finest.
[1:16:28] And he said, you know what, I want to go to Europa League
[1:16:32] Manchester United instead of Champions League finalists UVA.
[1:16:36] I'd actually rather be at Europa League, Man United.
[1:16:42] But this has to do with anything with that.
[1:16:44] Means that you. You guys got that?
[1:16:46] That might be the biggest fleecing in football history.
[1:16:48] I'm not kidding. I'm not kidding.
[1:16:50] Like Neymar's up Neymar PSG 230 mils up there, but like we.
[1:16:53] Literally spoke about Mudrick for 100 mil.
[1:16:55] Yeah, but you did that. But a player that you owned, you
[1:16:58] owned Paul Pogba. Yeah, but bro.
[1:17:02] You gave them to us for basically for free.
[1:17:04] Like I don't think you understand this.
[1:17:06] No, I don't think you. Football was in Manchester
[1:17:08] United's. I really don't think he
[1:17:11] understands the. Battle of the Baits.
[1:17:13] That's kind of where you're. Going no God, the bait has been
[1:17:15] reversed. He I'm not that's been biting on
[1:17:18] the rage bait a little bit. OK, I'm not.
[1:17:20] I'm not even. Starting.
[1:17:21] The rage because bro, this guy literally started a seal final
[1:17:26] for Juventus and then decided, yeah, I want to go to the shitty
[1:17:29] ass Manchester United team just because they're Manchester
[1:17:31] United and Juventus are not Manchester United.
[1:17:35] That's what he said in his mind, Like Manchester United is in a
[1:17:38] small group that Juventus is not in, by the way, a small group of
[1:17:42] clubs that are like super clubs. Juventus are right below that.
[1:17:46] But they're not there like they they wish they were there.
[1:17:49] Maybe a couple more CL wins that they turned losses to wins.
[1:17:52] You know, they could have been there, but they aren't.
[1:17:55] And then he's like, yeah, get me to Mattress United.
[1:17:58] Top H I'd be the standard. You are really holding that one
[1:18:03] in? Yeah, I.
[1:18:04] Was just thinking about it. For the last. 3 minutes I was
[1:18:06] waiting for you to finish. Oh my God.
[1:18:08] I let you speak. That's the difference.
[1:18:10] I can't wait till till Varvar stops speaking so I could throw.
[1:18:13] In My Girl, yeah. It's going to be the standard or
[1:18:15] not. But Chelsea shipped because they
[1:18:17] need to win everything next year.
[1:18:18] They. Spend 2 billion.
[1:18:19] Whatever. I'm not falling into the rage
[1:18:21] bit. Well, I found this new rage bit.
[1:18:24] I found this new rage bit tactic.
[1:18:26] We'll agree to disagree. Is this in your bit?
[1:18:29] I saw that one on Reddit. You.
[1:18:32] Learned that one in school. And I'm sorry, I'm not
[1:18:39] chronically online like you are. Exactly.
[1:18:42] Did you hear this? Guy, can you stop acting like a
[1:18:45] victim though? Arrange.
[1:18:52] But yeah, there's a couple more transfers you can go through
[1:18:55] like Aussie men for 75 mil to gallon.
[1:18:57] Brother, this is the whole transfer.
[1:18:58] Now we got a whole transfer set. Yeah, completely bro.
[1:19:01] Hike that off My favorite. Bro and we got a couple.
[1:19:03] We got a couple. Yeah, this.
[1:19:05] Is the here we go as we're talking about Aussie men for 75
[1:19:08] million to Galatasaray. De la Rentis has just pulled the
[1:19:12] biggest heist in his. Since when does Galatasaray make
[1:19:14] 75 miles? You understand that he went to
[1:19:17] Turkey and said you want Aussie man pay 75. $1,000,000 I don't
[1:19:21] want to turn this into just Syria outrage bait because.
[1:19:24] I this is not. Some of the Discordians have
[1:19:26] been telling me to calm it down a bit on the city outrage
[1:19:28] because anytime city out comes up I think they've been telling
[1:19:30] me to. Calm down on any rage.
[1:19:32] Bait, but so I'm going to not turn this into rage bait
[1:19:34] justifying selling Aussie man who undeniably could easily be
[1:19:41] worth 150 mil at if a Prem team right.
[1:19:44] If a Prem team had Aussie men right now they're not selling
[1:19:47] for like he's probably getting quoted easy, but your inverts
[1:19:50] just got sold for less than 150 mil.
[1:19:52] Yeah, exactly. And you don't think Aussie men's
[1:19:54] at that level you would break the Premier League transfer and
[1:19:56] and strikers go for more than after playing the Turkey for a
[1:19:59] year any other. But exactly that's the issue.
[1:20:02] It's mismanagement to the whole. City, yeah, but I agree you're
[1:20:04] removing the context out of it. There has been a mismanagement
[1:20:07] on his side as well. Not only not.
[1:20:09] I agree it's kind of embarrassing from Aussie men's
[1:20:11] POV that yes, every single top club in the world right now is
[1:20:15] crying out for a striker and no one even hit your line.
[1:20:19] But don't you? Did like he wanted.
[1:20:20] He sent a. Story at the beginning of the
[1:20:22] summer saying who want me like like in the in he said he posted
[1:20:27] a story No, I'm that's not the actually.
[1:20:30] No, there was a story about it. No, this is an analogy.
[1:20:33] I know the story was him and Cavada's agent.
[1:20:35] Remember Cavada's agent? They were beefing.
[1:20:37] They were beefing. He took he took a picture in
[1:20:39] front of a in front of a mirror at the beginning of summer,
[1:20:41] said. And like he saw Oh my God, I
[1:20:43] look so sexy. In this is this the non rage big
[1:20:45] conversation or what is this? This is a now I think.
[1:20:47] He just wants to talk about always been taking a picture in
[1:20:49] a mirror. I don't know.
[1:20:50] He took a picture in the mirror and said, damn, I look good in
[1:20:52] this picture, let me pull some of my story and no one swept up
[1:20:55] like no one. But De la Dente's Neapolis
[1:20:58] president still wanted the money of 75,000,000 and got it from
[1:21:02] Turkey. Do you understand what heist he
[1:21:04] just pulled? I don't give a.
[1:21:05] Fuck where the money comes from, you got 75 mil for a player
[1:21:09] that's worth easily over 100. Yes, but that's I'm moving the
[1:21:11] context. We all knew that.
[1:21:13] That's with with. No, that's we're moving the
[1:21:15] context 'cause this guy's obviously worth more than that,
[1:21:17] but nobody was paying. It and you know that no one's
[1:21:19] gonna pay €100 million for a player that obviously would not
[1:21:23] be in the squad that he's owned that right now, OK, he was gone
[1:21:25] anyway. Yeah, exactly.
[1:21:27] So that's that's. So Napoli.
[1:21:28] Napoli had one of the best Syriac duos we've seen in
[1:21:31] probably the last two decades or like decade.
[1:21:33] Not 100 female and they sold the duo.
[1:21:36] The two players yes for 150 mil. That's horrible.
[1:21:39] It's horrible mismanagement. Verts is 150 mil.
[1:21:42] But you do understand that there was no suitors for Aussie man
[1:21:45] and he still sold it for that price that he was?
[1:21:47] Why is there no suitors? Well then, then you got to.
[1:21:50] Look at the players. Yeah, you.
[1:21:51] Got to look at the. Pages, yeah, you have to look on
[1:21:52] the players side. What is he asking for?
[1:21:54] What are the demands? How much does he want on top of
[1:21:57] the transfer? You have to understand this is a
[1:21:58] situation where de la Rentes had his hands tied.
[1:22:01] He had nothing to do but sell this guy 'cause he wasn't coming
[1:22:03] back. To defend De Laurentiis.
[1:22:04] That guy, my God, he is the reason why this situation
[1:22:07] happened. De Laurentiis you could argue.
[1:22:08] That no, no, no. He's has some fault.
[1:22:10] He he basically kicked OS he man out of the team.
[1:22:12] But he just doesn't kick out the the best striker in the world
[1:22:14] that that he. Does De Laurentiis has a proven
[1:22:16] track record of just doing whatever he wants and being full
[1:22:19] of pride? He won the Scudeto, he could do
[1:22:20] whatever he wants. Yeah, exactly.
[1:22:22] And then that's how you go and not repeat.
[1:22:24] He he literally almost did he he won two Scudettis in the past.
[1:22:28] Five years, I get defending, said yeah.
[1:22:30] But defending De Laurentiis, defending the work.
[1:22:33] I think this is one of the biggest like transfers you could
[1:22:35] have done. If you only look at he caused
[1:22:37] this, if you caused it down somebody.
[1:22:39] Wanted he said nobody wanted him.
[1:22:41] Aussie man wasn't linked to any other bro.
[1:22:43] I can't actually can't believe I'm defending.
[1:22:45] Him, I seriously cannot believe that you don't you, you lack the
[1:22:48] the the vision that Aussie man is owned by Napoli.
[1:22:51] He could literally play on Napoli.
[1:22:53] Yes, and that was never gonna happen.
[1:22:56] Why? Because what the fuck are you
[1:22:58] guys doing? I I.
[1:22:59] Play this like a tactical. There's some, there's some
[1:23:02] taxpayers right now. Aussie Aussie man was not going
[1:23:06] to play for Napoli ever again. Why?
[1:23:07] Because there was some mismanagement, I'm not denying.
[1:23:10] It the relationship was was was was drove apart.
[1:23:13] You. You.
[1:23:14] Want to read? You want to win another Scudetto
[1:23:16] back-to-back. They they could do it without
[1:23:18] Aussie I. Can give you a guy that's proven
[1:23:21] he's the best striker that's played in Setia for God knows
[1:23:24] how long since Ronaldo played OK and you're you own them.
[1:23:28] OK. You won.
[1:23:29] Why wouldn't you integrate? Why wouldn't you reintegrate
[1:23:31] him? You.
[1:23:31] Won without him. They won without him like this.
[1:23:34] But they're looking for. Signings this summer.
[1:23:36] And and they have Aussie men. Exactly.
[1:23:38] Just sign lozo Luca. They just sign Bukema like they
[1:23:40] they would say you. Just sign Lorenzo Luca for 40
[1:23:42] mil. Yeah I know.
[1:23:44] And then you sell Aussie men for 75.
[1:23:46] It's an overpay. It's an overpay.
[1:23:47] I know we've said it's an overpay, I guarantee, but if I.
[1:23:50] Told you if I told you, if I told you that you sold Aussie
[1:23:53] men for Lorenzo Luca plus 35 mil you would have left to a Turkish
[1:23:56] club. I don't give a fuck what.
[1:23:58] Does that matter? I think that the context is like
[1:24:00] unreal that he was still able to get the money from a Turkish
[1:24:02] club. Nobody else wanted it.
[1:24:04] Fuck about where the. Money comes from you got 75 mil
[1:24:07] exactly. Yeah, but on a, on a player that
[1:24:09] would never. Why didn't you vent this buying
[1:24:11] back? Why didn't you vent this buying
[1:24:12] he? Didn't want to sell to us 'cause
[1:24:14] he learned this has so much pride bro, sitting on his little
[1:24:16] tower over there. Honestly fair play to him.
[1:24:19] He ended up putting a clause in the contract where he couldn't
[1:24:21] even sell back. The same more of a master class
[1:24:23] and that. Just kind of crazy because then
[1:24:24] Turkey you'd under, you would hope that maybe like has another
[1:24:28] insane season, Premier League comes calling or maybe said,
[1:24:30] yeah, teams come calling. But I hate De Laurentiis.
[1:24:32] I I wish nothing but the worst product.
[1:24:34] He. He.
[1:24:34] He is the the last of a of a old school man, old school owner
[1:24:39] breed. I hate that Napoli is has a
[1:24:42] success right now. Yeah, he's a he's a shit.
[1:24:43] Disturber. He's a shit disturber.
[1:24:45] No, they are. They don't deserve a contest.
[1:24:47] Save that. Fucking man.
[1:24:48] Other than enter, they're the best.
[1:24:49] Who put content in that team? Who?
[1:24:53] Brought Angelotti. All four of us with the, OR
[1:24:55] maybe not merely all three of us, could have said that Conte
[1:24:57] was the best manager appointment.
[1:24:59] And who got and who got him? And then this summer when you
[1:25:02] vented for fucking trucks circling around, who kept him
[1:25:05] bro? 3 fucking three guys on a
[1:25:07] podcast could have told you that Conte.
[1:25:09] Conte was the best manager available in the market last
[1:25:11] summer. And why didn't anyone else get?
[1:25:13] Him. And why did he stay?
[1:25:14] No. No, why did you vent?
[1:25:16] Go and get Thiago Mota instead. Because we're looking for a
[1:25:19] project, we're looking for, Conte we're looking for.
[1:25:21] A project that just is building a project at Napoli, that's
[1:25:23] that's what has happened. It's a project manager firms.
[1:25:26] By an applicant. Bro, he built an enter.
[1:25:28] He built, he went. This he, he built.
[1:25:30] He didn't build shit, bro, He didn't build.
[1:25:32] He wins, bro. He comes and he wins.
[1:25:35] He didn't. He didn't build, bro.
[1:25:36] He comes. He wins and he comes.
[1:25:38] He wins. And then the team keeps on
[1:25:40] winning. He leaves.
[1:25:41] But the team keeps on winning. All your fucking Antonio
[1:25:43] countries there not the team keeps on winning.
[1:25:45] Yeah, that's a lie. Yeah, but a lot.
[1:25:47] A lot. I don't know it, no.
[1:25:50] Is that a lie? There there's truth to it.
[1:25:53] There's truth, but it's not like 100% Chelsea were obvious were.
[1:25:57] What happened in Chelsea? What happened in Chelsea in
[1:25:59] 20/18/20? 19 Tottenham were.
[1:26:01] OK bro, you're talking about a Prem club?
[1:26:02] What? Happened to the Spurs.
[1:26:03] You're talking about a Prem club.
[1:26:04] Spurs were dusted. Spurs were dusted from the
[1:26:07] fucking get go. That's the problem.
[1:26:08] And he was only there for like, literally a season, Yeah.
[1:26:12] But but and. He made top four with that
[1:26:13] shitty ass team that ended up 15th.
[1:26:16] Or whatever. Two years, then two years, then
[1:26:18] two years, then two years, then two years, then two years, then
[1:26:21] one year, one year you could go. Through each one.
[1:26:22] It's called success, success, success, success.
[1:26:24] The only time he's been. That's a crazy way of fucking.
[1:26:27] That's a crazy way of turning a negative spin on the manager.
[1:26:30] That's one everywhere. What do you win with Spurs?
[1:26:32] OK bro, no one wins anything at Spur.
[1:26:34] What do you win for Chelsea? A Prem Prem.
[1:26:37] That's crazy. But.
[1:26:40] But but but I would, what I will say is that De Laurentiis has
[1:26:44] always let his ego get the best of him in certain situations,
[1:26:46] sure. But because perfect scenario,
[1:26:48] Aussiement, they kept a good relationship with Aussiement.
[1:26:52] He ends up being a superstar in Seria, ends up going to the Prem
[1:26:54] for 150 million that or 120 million, whatever that that's
[1:26:58] the best case scenario. But because of an ego, because
[1:27:01] of the actions done, yeah, he's in a situation where he has to
[1:27:04] sell Aussiement for 75,000,000. But that's not to say that if
[1:27:08] Galatasaray wasn't there, he would have had to probably sell
[1:27:11] Ozimen for even more of a discount.
[1:27:13] I understand he there's five. It's an achievement.
[1:27:15] Why? Are you putting 100% of the
[1:27:17] blame on De la Rentis 1? Ozimen is the guy who cannot
[1:27:20] roll. Can't find another club?
[1:27:21] Just last year or a year and a half ago or whatever the real
[1:27:24] football offered by PSG, over 200 million for Cavada and
[1:27:28] Ozimen combined. Now you're sold them both for
[1:27:31] 145 mil combined. And I said.
[1:27:33] Nothing. And I said it's a season.
[1:27:34] Extra What about 75 mil from Turkey?
[1:27:37] It doesn't matter. Mismanagement You're you have a
[1:27:39] failed asset on your hands. It's like a.
[1:27:42] Why did he talk to a failed asset?
[1:27:44] You failed the asset. Yeah, OK.
[1:27:45] So. So what do you expect them to do
[1:27:47] right now? Just sell them for free like I
[1:27:48] don't. Understand your point.
[1:27:49] That's the thing that's so. What do you see?
[1:27:50] Sold them to the best fucking thing he could get it.
[1:27:53] This he turned he turned AFA failed situation to AD grade
[1:27:58] situation. Yeah, I wouldn't say D because
[1:27:59] he got his money's worth. He really get his money.
[1:28:01] 'S Worth 75,000,000. Worth on your fucking?
[1:28:04] Million plus. OK, but his release clause was
[1:28:07] how much? I don't give a fuck.
[1:28:08] About his release his. Release clause was 75,000,000,
[1:28:11] he said. He was offered you over 200.
[1:28:14] Million. No one, no one, no one, put it.
[1:28:15] You had the. Offer in writing of over 200
[1:28:18] million. When was that?
[1:28:19] Last year? Last summer.
[1:28:20] Last summer. Last summer, yes, and then 6.
[1:28:23] Months later, they end up selling Cavada for 70.
[1:28:25] In hindsight, it's easy to say, oh, you should have sold them
[1:28:28] right after they won the Scudito, right?
[1:28:29] But now the reason is that wasn't even right.
[1:28:32] After they won the Scudeto this was.
[1:28:33] Probably year last year is the the second year.
[1:28:36] Yeah, it was a year. Still finding the club It was in
[1:28:39] Galatasaray that. Was the year after they just
[1:28:41] that's when they brought in Conte.
[1:28:42] They got offered that 200 mil. OK.
[1:28:46] So what are you trying to tell me?
[1:28:47] I'd say obviously. It doesn't say.
[1:28:49] Yeah, it's obviously easy. To say with the situation that
[1:28:51] was in hand, I bro I I don't think you could have done better
[1:28:53] than 75,000,000. Bro, he ruined 100 and let's say
[1:28:56] 20, I'm not saying 50. He ruined €120 million asset and
[1:28:59] then he you realize this. Is part of this caps.
[1:29:02] This is part of this. Cap City of sales because now if
[1:29:06] Aussie man is going for 75,000,000 Cavada by city of.
[1:29:08] Sales. I'm just talking about Aussie
[1:29:10] man deal. If Aussie man went for 75 and
[1:29:11] Cavada went for 70, there's no player in your league right now
[1:29:14] that's worth more than 75 or 70. No player.
[1:29:16] I'm not a single. Player Aussie man was.
[1:29:18] Aussie man was the best player in your league by far two years
[1:29:22] ago was layout it it was Aussie man with the best player in the
[1:29:27] league was Aussie man. The best player in the league
[1:29:29] was Aussie man and. No, now was three years ago.
[1:29:33] Aussie man was three years ago. Years ago was layout there.
[1:29:35] Well, I'd argue Cavada was better, but Ozyman and Cavada
[1:29:38] seems yeah. Whatever, Ozyman and Cavada were
[1:29:41] the 2 best players and they got sold for 75 or 70.
[1:29:43] Yeah so layout's not going for 100.
[1:29:45] You'll never go for 100. The Max right now is these
[1:29:48] players are capped at 75 or 70 because the best players in your
[1:29:51] league are worth 70 mil. No.
[1:29:53] OK, No, no, I don't. Really know I don't get that I.
[1:29:55] Don't get that at. Any sense?
[1:29:57] I don't get that at all. You bought holding for how much?
[1:29:59] Exactly that makes it even. Worse.
[1:30:01] But you bought it for 70 that that makes.
[1:30:03] Sense yeah, you can never ever sell a player over 75.
[1:30:06] Now, ever, all of a sudden. Because Aussie man over 75.
[1:30:09] Oh but but my player just scored 25.
[1:30:11] Napoli got as much. Goals in the channel?
[1:30:13] Napoli got so as. Much.
[1:30:14] Out of Aussie man as Atlanta got to.
[1:30:17] Look at the context. This was a failed like he was
[1:30:20] not going to play for Napoli anymore.
[1:30:22] Everybody knew that. Everybody on the market that was
[1:30:24] looking for so long. Again.
[1:30:26] And that's no he got why loan him out?
[1:30:28] What is he going to make by loaning him out?
[1:30:30] You make that milk. Next, why don't you?
[1:30:31] Make summer you reevaluate and you and you have your shitty
[1:30:34] assets thrown away into fucking Turkey.
[1:30:36] Next summer, you reevaluate the market.
[1:30:38] Why don't you keep them on the books if you know that the
[1:30:39] relationship is is way too? Because you know, if you hold
[1:30:42] them until the end of summer that he's going to be forced to
[1:30:45] either lower his wage demands, yeah, either rejoin the team or
[1:30:50] he's gonna go on another loan to another team.
[1:30:52] But but another. Year.
[1:30:54] Then he would rejoin the team. He's not gonna sit out for six
[1:30:56] months. He's not gonna sit out for.
[1:30:57] Six months rejoin the. Team He would not sit out for
[1:30:59] six months. They would have forced, they
[1:31:00] would have tried to either force a transfer or force a contract
[1:31:03] termination. Exactly.
[1:31:04] But then it would be up to him. It would be up to him to lower
[1:31:06] his wage demands. And he wouldn't.
[1:31:08] That's why so. Then he's gonna.
[1:31:09] So then he's not. This is not.
[1:31:11] He would never have sat out for six months.
[1:31:14] Brother, all Turkey does is wages.
[1:31:16] That's all it. Is they don't they don't spend
[1:31:18] 75,000,000 and give him 20. Yeah, but they will, Yes.
[1:31:21] They don't go up to. Aussie men will not have joined
[1:31:23] out Casa for 10 mil Yeah I agree.
[1:31:25] We'll see. We'll see.
[1:31:26] I agree. But I think he's I.
[1:31:28] Think he has just like he has blame as well in this too.
[1:31:30] No, no, He 100. Percent definitely does, 100% he
[1:31:33] definitely does. But De Laurentiis is the asset
[1:31:36] manager and regardless of the asset, like regardless if the
[1:31:40] asset is showing signs of like like not liking the club,
[1:31:44] whatever, like whatever the it's still deal entrances job to
[1:31:48] manage his ass, Yeah. But for him he in.
[1:31:49] Hindsight, it's easy to say that.
[1:31:50] But he's not private. Equity.
[1:31:51] But this shit doesn't happen anywhere else.
[1:31:53] It only happened. The year where Napoli wonders,
[1:31:57] Kudito said. Ozzie Man is the best striker in
[1:31:58] the world. You think the next year he's
[1:31:59] like, actually fuck this guy, he's not the best striker
[1:32:01] anymore, throw him out. But.
[1:32:03] There has to be a reason why, he said last.
[1:32:05] Summer. But if it was a private equity
[1:32:07] firm, they would have had every single person on the board say,
[1:32:09] OK, yes, sell him for the highest price right now.
[1:32:12] De Laurentiis is a man of ego. De Laurentiis is a man that
[1:32:15] tries to represent Napoli. He, he, he's stubborn, he's
[1:32:18] arrogant. That's always how he's been
[1:32:19] since he bought the club. For him to make this level of
[1:32:22] mistake, I would I would be AI would be very critical if it was
[1:32:26] like oak Tree or if it was Red Bird.
[1:32:28] If it was someone that I'd be extremely critical 'cause you
[1:32:30] have advisors, you have the people that's true around to
[1:32:33] make those decisions collectively.
[1:32:35] Dilantis is a one man show at the end of the day.
[1:32:36] That's he. He's an old school owner.
[1:32:38] That's. Crazy framing of a terrible
[1:32:41] outcome, OK. I'm just I'm just trying to give
[1:32:44] it a level of context. That the winners is run by I
[1:32:47] don't care what the one man 1 stubborn.
[1:32:49] Man, so the means justify the result.
[1:32:52] Brought to school that though for him he doesn't give a shit
[1:32:55] about Aussie man how does? The means just fine.
[1:32:56] How did we get to? So Aussie man for 75 mil because
[1:33:00] it was done this way it's fine but like you you getting
[1:33:04] 75,000,000? It was fine, I'm just saying
[1:33:07] that. I'm saying it's shit.
[1:33:08] I'm the one saying it's garbage. I'm just saying this is the best
[1:33:10] that that he could have probably done 75,000,000.
[1:33:13] It's an ESAC level striker in my opinion.
[1:33:15] But now I'm saying that sounds funny.
[1:33:17] It sounds crazy, just like like in 2025.
[1:33:19] No, I don't think it's crazy to see.
[1:33:21] Yeah, because we know he was human.
[1:33:22] But the world, the world would not have to do this, because he.
[1:33:23] Spent the full year in in Turkey and he's going to spend.
[1:33:26] What did you expect? What did you expect when you
[1:33:28] went to go fucking? You took the highest loan deal,
[1:33:31] Yeah, they could have loaned them to some of the Premier
[1:33:33] League or they could have loaned them somewhere else, but no.
[1:33:35] Chelsea and him couldn't agree on wages.
[1:33:36] He almost joined Chelsea on track from that so.
[1:33:38] How is that de la entes fault if it's always constantly the
[1:33:41] player that can't agree with anybody else?
[1:33:44] I knowing de la Entes history, I know he was not helping that
[1:33:46] situation. He.
[1:33:48] Wanted the asset gone, especially Chelsea.
[1:33:51] Chelsea came through like saying Chelsea has the money to spend.
[1:33:54] Why didn't Chelsea spend it? I'm sure de la Entes would have
[1:33:57] loved to have a Chelsea bag. You're telling me?
[1:33:59] But then you 100%. Is Aziman's hand if I'm him, if
[1:34:02] he has forced his hand? Bro enjoy.
[1:34:04] The You don't think he's forced? Yeah, but we still have many
[1:34:08] weeks left of the transfer window.
[1:34:10] You could have gone down to the like the clock like to the
[1:34:13] final. Day and the.
[1:34:14] More you run it, the more the price.
[1:34:15] Is down the less that price? Is like you said, the worst
[1:34:18] case. You loan them to gal a tax rate
[1:34:19] for another year. What a waste of everyone's time.
[1:34:22] Yeah, it's even Oziman's per. Year as pocket and call it a no.
[1:34:25] You just give them a loan they lost.
[1:34:26] Money on Aziman. You realize that, right?
[1:34:29] From a basic perspective, sure. I I we know that they paid over.
[1:34:33] 75 four years ago. Yeah, they also got 2 scudethi
[1:34:37] in the middle of it. They got a pair of shirt sales.
[1:34:39] They got a, they got a bunch of revenue.
[1:34:40] Shirt sales don't cover. Now doesn't cover but but before
[1:34:43] Ronaldo's. Ronaldo's shirt sales at.
[1:34:45] Manchester United covered Aussie men's fucking Napoli shirt sales
[1:34:49] to Ronaldo's shirt sales. No, but I'm just saying like
[1:34:52] you, you bring it up from 1 and not the other, but Aussie men
[1:34:54] was a Aussie. Men probably shirt.
[1:34:56] Fucking 20 kids, that's what. I don't think anyone in Napoli
[1:34:59] has a real Napoli kid that's also.
[1:35:02] True, that's a valid statement. I think Ronaldo probably sold
[1:35:06] more kits than Napoli's entire kid deal.
[1:35:10] Kate, you know, I didn't bring it up as a comparison.
[1:35:13] I'm. Just.
[1:35:13] But what's the other thing you said that's true?
[1:35:15] That what? You said two things.
[1:35:18] You said the thing and then the shirt.
[1:35:19] Well, they want to Scudetti. Yeah, OK.
[1:35:20] No. We're going in one.
[1:35:22] One. Yeah, you can.
[1:35:22] Only yeah, sure. But no, no, I'm saying they got
[1:35:24] a player, They got a yeah, they got a player for years.
[1:35:26] They got an ass. And they lost money on it.
[1:35:29] You know how crazy that is? You signed.
[1:35:31] But you salvage. You said you could salvage.
[1:35:33] Striker in the world? Cut your losses money.
[1:35:36] You cut your De Niro not for a resale.
[1:35:38] You signed Casamiro to get him for those last few years of his
[1:35:40] career like you can find you are.
[1:35:42] You need to sign the Casimiro equivalent.
[1:35:44] Well, you guys are the kings of cutting your losses.
[1:35:46] Yeah, like this is a cut your losses you.
[1:35:48] Literally sat there. And this is like this is like.
[1:35:51] If they Newcastle went and sold ISAC for less than the money,
[1:35:55] no. No.
[1:35:55] Because if that's if Newcastle and ISAC had a an insane
[1:35:58] argument where they couldn't they couldn't agree on anything
[1:36:01] under no certain to someone else than sell them.
[1:36:03] Yeah, and under. No, Sir.
[1:36:04] Guess that's what he'd be sold for.
[1:36:05] Under. He might be he might be the
[1:36:07] least qualified person to be talking shit about this because
[1:36:10] you've you justified literally 45 minutes ago the Rashford
[1:36:14] situation, bro. I'm just happy they're taking 14
[1:36:17] mil. You had 150 million asset too
[1:36:19] there, buddy. Exactly.
[1:36:20] Yeah, but now it's not worth, you know, you're.
[1:36:21] Saying why? Why you're saying that?
[1:36:22] Though there's no because. Rashford has proven through the
[1:36:25] year he hasn't had a good season in three years.
[1:36:27] He's a Barcelona level player now, right?
[1:36:28] This guy's a 20 years. Potentially be yeah.
[1:36:32] He literally just dominated Turkish league last season every
[1:36:35] at every single point as he's dominated Syria every single
[1:36:38] season he's played sat there. Actually, no, you didn't said
[1:36:40] you told all of us I would pay money to get Sancho out of my
[1:36:44] team Yeah, that was once €120 million asset yes, but he's once
[1:36:48] again he's proven through multiple he Sancho.
[1:36:50] What if what if he got not management season in four years?
[1:36:53] What if he got 75 million from Sancho?
[1:36:56] But that's that's once again, Sancho is not.
[1:36:59] Sancho didn't show up to Man United and win US the fucking
[1:37:02] league while being MVP of the league you're not.
[1:37:05] You're not using right compared. You're not using a like.
[1:37:09] We, if we. Paid 120 mil for Sancho and he
[1:37:12] showed up, was the best player in the Premier League and one
[1:37:14] player of the season and then we sold him for less than we bought
[1:37:17] him for. Yeah that's fucking stupid.
[1:37:19] But he showed up, did absolute air for four years of his life,
[1:37:22] fucking ate food every single fucking week.
[1:37:24] Showed up £300. He wasn't worth that money then.
[1:37:27] And now, yeah, he's worthless. This fucking piece of.
[1:37:29] Shit. That's why they're justifying a
[1:37:31] 75,000,000 year old transfer and you're trying to justify by
[1:37:34] paying money to get rid of Sancho.
[1:37:36] That's. I cannot believe that we are
[1:37:38] justifying us for 75 mil. Salvaging salvaging TK went for
[1:37:43] fucking 90 mil. Big Brother, please I.
[1:37:46] We're not gonna convince you. I don't think he understands
[1:37:48] what we're even saying, to be honest.
[1:37:50] Let's move on. Let's.
[1:37:51] Let's do it. The fuck?
[1:37:51] Ohh, Speaking of fucking fleeces, by the way.
[1:37:55] Fleeces. Now these guys, because they,
[1:37:58] they're fucking stupid little city.
[1:37:59] I'll fucking. Be like some stupid shit I'm
[1:38:01] looking and give a. Fuck about Napoli I wish they
[1:38:04] fucking sold Ocemen for 40 million.
[1:38:05] I fucking ate them. That much I don't give.
[1:38:06] A shit, I'm looking right now and bemo €80 million from
[1:38:10] Brentford to Manchester United paid more than Aussiementa
[1:38:13] Galatasaray, but yeah, Napoli got.
[1:38:16] Amazing deal out of. That this is Napoli, but you
[1:38:18] match. But you got an amazing deal,
[1:38:20] Napoli. Are playing seal, last year they
[1:38:21] won the fucking league and they're not able to extract as
[1:38:24] much money as Brentford. And would you say that
[1:38:26] Manchester United is still bigger, bigger club than Napoli?
[1:38:29] I know Brentford's a smaller club than Napoli but they're
[1:38:32] able to get more money out of their players.
[1:38:34] Manchester United. So is that a bad deal for Man
[1:38:37] United? I don't get.
[1:38:37] No, it's a good deal for Man United.
[1:38:39] Fucking fleece. But Dala Tasserite, Felice
[1:38:42] Napoli, Absolutely fleece Napoli.
[1:38:45] Well 75,000,000 is is a record transfer in church.
[1:38:48] Yeah, fleece. Never seen a number higher than
[1:38:52] five in. Italy weren't able to pay that.
[1:38:54] But you do understand that Aussie men would be the only
[1:38:57] player of that caliber in world football to join the Turkish
[1:39:00] league. You do understand that, right?
[1:39:02] That's the only available they bought it.
[1:39:04] Because they know next year they'll be able to.
[1:39:06] Sell that fucker for 100. Million Aussie men, bro.
[1:39:08] I don't know. Yeah, and bueno, let's talk
[1:39:10] about. You're no, you're trying to
[1:39:12] frame and Bueno is a bad deal because Aussie men got
[1:39:14] absolutely sorry. But I'm just trying to see if
[1:39:16] the reasoning is sound fuel to the fire.
[1:39:18] See if you're reasoning. For 80 mil is a good deal you.
[1:39:20] Overpaid. No, we didn't.
[1:39:22] He's 20 plus goals. Oh, it's like, it's like the
[1:39:24] Sox. You're getting opportunities.
[1:39:26] Aussie Man is an opportunity because it's a lower value
[1:39:29] product right now. 26 year old one season 1 there bro.
[1:39:32] Yeah, one Season 1 though. Meanwhile, people have actually
[1:39:34] been, I know this is difficult for you, but people actually
[1:39:37] watch the sport, have known him. Bueno's good for multiple years.
[1:39:39] Really. For multiple years, everyone has
[1:39:41] said that he's the most underrated player in the Premier
[1:39:43] League. Last year was the year where his
[1:39:45] numbers actually translate. I like that tactic, Member.
[1:39:48] It's not just talking about people that don't exist.
[1:39:50] Yeah, it's a good tactic, people.
[1:39:52] But he's widely been regarded as one of the most underrated
[1:39:55] players in the Premier League for multiple years.
[1:39:57] Just last year his goal stats and his assist stats backed up
[1:40:00] that thing. It's the same.
[1:40:01] It's the same thing as Ruffina at the Leeds.
[1:40:03] Like everyone knew there was an amazing player there.
[1:40:05] It was just time until the goals and assists.
[1:40:07] He never cracked over 10 goals in the Premier set for last
[1:40:09] season. Well, he's not a goals and
[1:40:11] assists player. Because you actually didn't
[1:40:14] watch the sport. Non goals and assist player.
[1:40:16] He didn't watch, but as a guy that's offensive.
[1:40:19] You didn't watch and whammo before last.
[1:40:22] Season I did because I watched Ivan.
[1:40:23] Tony Ebron. From you didn't watch that deep,
[1:40:25] you just fucking casually watched him.
[1:40:28] Unlike you, I actually have three seasons that are my both
[1:40:30] of FPLFPL draft. You gave up because you were
[1:40:34] losing halfway through the season.
[1:40:35] You finished last place. Unlike you, I have three seasons
[1:40:38] under my. Belt And then I showed up last
[1:40:40] year after not playing and. And you actually finish below me
[1:40:43] who I have never. Finished double digit points
[1:40:45] behind. Me and you finished third behind
[1:40:47] the guy that's probably you know, I.
[1:40:49] Gave you a full and what theory is I gave you a full year head
[1:40:53] start on me and you still finish below.
[1:40:56] I'm sorry I'm not chronically online like you.
[1:40:58] Yeah, I saw that post on Reddit too.
[1:41:01] And seen. But and Wemo for 80 million is
[1:41:03] inherently a good deal. You got one of the top not
[1:41:06] inherently not Even so. OK, so not not rage, we decide
[1:41:11] was, not, was and was and well. Been rage with the entire.
[1:41:14] Time not rage. The side of about the rage.
[1:41:15] OK. And arrange me the side would
[1:41:18] undoubtedly and Wemo was a top ten Premier League player last
[1:41:21] year, undoubtedly. Hold on.
[1:41:22] Yes. I'm, I'm being generous.
[1:41:24] Top 10, you could argue even top five defenders.
[1:41:27] Not top 10. What the fuck, defender?
[1:41:28] Other than Virgil van Dyke's Making that.
[1:41:29] But nothing is better than Wemo. I mean how?
[1:41:32] How can we? How can you actually defend
[1:41:34] that? No how?
[1:41:35] No. Well, not they would get sold
[1:41:36] for 90 million a 100 million. No he wouldn't.
[1:41:39] First of all, what? Oh my God he has one like one
[1:41:42] one year left on his. Gabrielle and Saliba are both
[1:41:45] worth. More.
[1:41:46] Than a formality. Am I spitting like?
[1:41:49] Something when what, five years left on his contract he would
[1:41:51] not be worth 80 mil. No, I think, yeah.
[1:41:54] But it's like he's adding the little context now where it's
[1:41:57] like one year left on his contract, but that is 100
[1:41:59] million. OK, Gabriel Solino I.
[1:42:01] Agree and Weimo with five years left on his contract and 100
[1:42:03] million. Player He has 2 two years left
[1:42:05] on his contract. Yeah, I know, Buemmo.
[1:42:07] I know. That's why he's going.
[1:42:08] I mean 80 million. But but context for Ozman
[1:42:10] doesn't. Come by the way, no.
[1:42:11] Just just a heads up. But Ozman has a better player
[1:42:14] than him, Buemmo, I'll tell you that right now.
[1:42:16] All right. So that means Aussie man is a
[1:42:18] top 10? Player in the Prem, Yeah, I like
[1:42:21] that. That's fucking crazy.
[1:42:22] It is crazy. You just think about forwards
[1:42:23] bro, there's a whole league. That's a team having the time.
[1:42:25] I really don't think that that's that crazy it.
[1:42:27] Is it is crazy to say? But whatever.
[1:42:28] And Bwemo was undoubtedly a top ten player.
[1:42:31] If you want to argue 11 because of Konate, sure he's a top 11
[1:42:34] player. Whatever, I don't give a shit.
[1:42:36] Gabrielle, there's Saliba, there's Van Dyke, there's Salah.
[1:42:38] Had a better year than Salim. There's Holland.
[1:42:40] There's fucking brother Saka. And Bwemo had a better year than
[1:42:44] Holland. OK, keep going.
[1:42:45] And Bwemo had a better year than.
[1:42:46] He undoubtedly had a better year than Holland.
[1:42:49] Are you fucking the goal? Stats say he had a better year
[1:42:51] than Holland. You don't believe that?
[1:42:54] You don't believe that, swear to God.
[1:42:55] OK, so then you're stupid. All right, so I'm expecting.
[1:42:58] Hollands for 22 goals. Let me get this season.
[1:43:01] Let me get. Scored in the 20.
[1:43:03] Fucking goals and he's not a. Poacher, let me get this
[1:43:06] straight. You would have rather gotten and
[1:43:08] Wem over Holland right now. Last year in FPL, yes, I would
[1:43:10] have rather no. No right now though.
[1:43:12] I'm not saying he's a better player early Holland here, he
[1:43:14] had a better had. 39 GA and 48 games from Man City last year
[1:43:19] and you're trying to tell me that I'm how?
[1:43:20] Many in the Prem I'm saying. Like I said, 22.
[1:43:23] OK, 22 check how many on Bemo had 20. 15 open play goals.
[1:43:27] OK, now we're counting open play goals.
[1:43:29] I'm sorry, that was raised by money.
[1:43:31] Play goals. Exactly.
[1:43:32] It's too natural. So last year and Wemo in the
[1:43:35] Prem solely in the Premier League competition was better
[1:43:38] than early. Well, early Island scored 19
[1:43:39] open play goals and Wemo scored 15.
[1:43:41] OK, one's a striker, 1's a winger, one contributes a lot
[1:43:44] more to open play. And Wemo, that's much of A
[1:43:46] striker as anyone else, brother. OK, we're just fucking lying.
[1:43:50] We're just lying, bro. Don't don't act like he was
[1:43:52] playing people. People tune into this.
[1:43:54] But but OK, don't, don't we have we have to tune in.
[1:43:57] People tune into this podcast brother, and don't expect rage
[1:44:00] bait every fucking line that you say.
[1:44:02] You're literally the inventor of rage bait.
[1:44:05] I'm the victim right now. I'm gonna.
[1:44:06] Yeah, Poland. We actually did well.
[1:44:09] In the. First hour into the podcast we
[1:44:11] actually got very little rage bait but now you literally say
[1:44:15] and wevels as much as a striker. At.
[1:44:18] Anyone okay firms, I'm not gonna arrange by you because the
[1:44:21] discord has been telling me I'm arrange winning too much.
[1:44:22] Okay, and now you're gonna go on some firms.
[1:44:25] Listen to this hierarchy rank firms listen to this and Buenos
[1:44:28] more of a striker than Jamie Vardy.
[1:44:31] What the fuck am I supposed to do?
[1:44:32] Like. You're supposed to act shocked
[1:44:33] and appalled. Because bro, that's just fucking
[1:44:35] stupid. Yeah, but I mean, Bwemo played
[1:44:39] striker this season. He's played there.
[1:44:40] He had one appearance at striker.
[1:44:42] This season, well Thomas Frank when he played the three back.
[1:44:45] 1. I find that hard to believe.
[1:44:47] Sorry, I didn't know we saw, he started.
[1:44:50] Every. Fucking day.
[1:44:50] There's no. Sense in Bwemo making runs in
[1:44:52] behind. They didn't play 2 strikers.
[1:44:55] Yes. No, they didn't.
[1:44:57] Bro at one point they did and then three.
[1:44:59] And then when? Shot it started coming in as a
[1:45:01] left winger. Left winger All all season they
[1:45:04] had a left winger, so I don't know this bullshit about that.
[1:45:07] He's as much of A striker as anybody.
[1:45:09] You're not? Then Sock is as much of A
[1:45:11] striker as anybody then, theoretically.
[1:45:13] No. Why is it no?
[1:45:16] Why? Is it?
[1:45:18] Why is it no? Because one place right wing in
[1:45:21] 1/4. How how am I the topic of
[1:45:23] conversation right now? You're because.
[1:45:25] Once again, because what? Because.
[1:45:27] You're. Guilty by association.
[1:45:29] How? Much because I'm sitting on the
[1:45:30] same fucking chair, this dumbass.
[1:45:32] What can I do? You're.
[1:45:33] Guilty by you're. You're looking for approval,
[1:45:35] whatever. Where do you play?
[1:45:37] I have to turn to Millie. I see from just him.
[1:45:40] Lord knows. Yeah, Lord knows.
[1:45:42] Because. I'll tell you it's a minute.
[1:45:44] Of buying emblemo in his face and I'll.
[1:45:46] Lift that one high and proud. I'll tell you what I actually
[1:45:49] think about Emblemo. I think he's a baller and I
[1:45:51] think he will do good at Man United.
[1:45:53] But can we agree 80 million is a lot?
[1:45:56] It's 80 million is a lot of money, but now no but listen 80
[1:46:00] mil no this is right we go and. We agree that 80 mil is a lot of
[1:46:06] money. 80,000,008 times. 10 million, I understand.
[1:46:10] It's 80,000,081. Million. 8 piles of 10 million.
[1:46:15] 80 piles of 1,000,000 It's a load of money.
[1:46:19] It's objectively a lot of money. OK, what's his name?
[1:46:23] Fucking rage. Ben Shapiro over here.
[1:46:26] Let's say theoretically I. Work, I can't even 80 million is
[1:46:29] a lot of money like yes, it's a lot of money, but but are
[1:46:33] emblemo level players going for 80 million?
[1:46:36] Yes who bro after Jamie Vinyl get in goes for fucking.
[1:46:43] OK, but we all said that was. Horrible.
[1:46:45] Yeah. After Jao Pedro.
[1:46:46] Went for 60 million. Stop comparing overpays.
[1:46:50] Stop comparing. Overpays.
[1:46:51] Stop. Pedro, 60 million is a good
[1:46:53] deal. He they just didn't need him,
[1:46:55] but he's a fine deal for 60 million.
[1:46:56] But for this, for the the the what they needed is an overpay.
[1:46:59] But he's a player works. No, I don't think he's a yeah,
[1:47:02] not an overpay. I'm going to.
[1:47:04] Go an overpay I've. Always said Ciao Pedro is a good
[1:47:08] player, but they didn't. Watching him in the.
[1:47:10] They didn't need the striker, that's my issue with the deal.
[1:47:13] But 60 mil is a 60 mil player. Liam de Lop went for 30.
[1:47:17] And Ciao Pedro is a better player than Liam de Lop.
[1:47:19] Liam de Lop scored how many goals in the Prem last season?
[1:47:22] 1110? Yeah, a good season that That's
[1:47:24] a fairly priced player. I agree and so I mean literally
[1:47:28] doubled what the lap did from and our right wing good players
[1:47:33] go for this price in the Prem. You're you're not gonna find
[1:47:36] players that scored twenty goals in the Prem that aren't, that
[1:47:39] are gonna go for less than 80 million.
[1:47:40] Yeah, well, just like it just feels like a a stop gap it it
[1:47:44] doesn't feel like no for me, for me personal.
[1:47:47] No, it's not. Bro, $80 million you.
[1:47:50] Think that he can go to CL Knights and not and then he
[1:47:53] won't stand out. I don't know, we haven't seen
[1:47:55] him in CL Knights. He stands out in the Prem.
[1:47:58] Yeah, OK. But The thing is that it's
[1:48:00] Brentford selling. So like, how is Brentford
[1:48:03] getting 80 million out of Manchester United?
[1:48:05] Brentford's a stable Premier League club that every year has
[1:48:07] been in the Premier League for the last like 5 or 6 years.
[1:48:09] I don't think it's that crazy that they have the money.
[1:48:12] They have money, they're not broke.
[1:48:13] They have the lowest wage bill in the Prem.
[1:48:15] No I'm saying why are you paying that?
[1:48:16] Like you're telling me you have no poll where you could just get
[1:48:19] an M WEMO for like it's a Brentford no poll?
[1:48:22] It's a Brentford player, bro. He tort to join us instead of
[1:48:26] Arsenal, Spurs, all these clubs out gang calling.
[1:48:29] Cuz we nobody wanted. You paid, you paid.
[1:48:31] Nobody wanted him. No, he's a good like.
[1:48:34] For 80 million, nobody wanted it.
[1:48:35] OK. They were interest.
[1:48:36] Bro I saw that on Reddit too. Reddit.
[1:48:38] Yeah, I'm not chronically online.
[1:48:40] Like that there you. Go.
[1:48:42] I didn't recognize the Reddit 1. But so trying in in a winger,
[1:48:50] from a winger perspective, what are better deals this summer?
[1:48:53] Like. He's 80 mil for Wemble's, a
[1:48:56] better deal than Madweke for 50. MO is a better player than by
[1:48:59] the way. Pounds by the way, 55 so we can
[1:49:01] fucking turn this bullshit up EUR and.
[1:49:03] Wemble's a better player than. I don't go OK, €55 million,
[1:49:07] still a better deal than Wemble. No bro, Arsenal it's a worse
[1:49:10] deal to Arsenal, it's for 80 million to Manchester United and
[1:49:13] Wemble is better. Than are we speaking about Man
[1:49:15] United or are we speaking about Arsenal here?
[1:49:17] No, no Wemble for 80 mil is a better deal than Madweke for 55
[1:49:20] if. A team that really needed a left
[1:49:21] wing. I want to go get mad, Weke.
[1:49:24] We are discussing Brian and Buemmo to Manchester United.
[1:49:27] I could give less of a fuck about Arsenal right now.
[1:49:30] How did I rage you without even trying exactly?
[1:49:33] You say something stupid and then you just try and play it
[1:49:35] off as a rage bait. OK, I.
[1:49:36] Don't get it? And Buemmo 2 Man United for 80
[1:49:39] millions a better deal than Mad Waking for 55.
[1:49:41] Can you come up to me with a solid solution that right wing
[1:49:43] that was available for this a better deal?
[1:49:45] How much was kudos to Spurs? 55.
[1:49:48] Way. Better deal.
[1:49:49] Way better deal. I check if it was pounds cuz
[1:49:52] like but. No, that's a West Ham level
[1:49:54] player. That has never gotten more than
[1:49:56] ten goals in assists in in the prime season.
[1:49:57] But we all know like. Well know how.
[1:50:00] Well before last season. No, because he still had fifteen
[1:50:02] goals in assists every single year.
[1:50:04] OK. So his baseline?
[1:50:06] At worst, he's getting 15. And you can't base kudos off of
[1:50:10] Georgia. He's not.
[1:50:10] That's not that. That player cannot be based.
[1:50:12] On when my team scored fucking forty goals last year.
[1:50:15] I need goals in my team. I need to base myself off of
[1:50:18] goals yes cuz next thing you know in my right.
[1:50:22] Premium Fred, I guess I don't. Know bro, Garnatal got fucking
[1:50:24] ten goals in assists last. I don't need another Garnatal.
[1:50:27] I'm not even looking at goals. Not sure it's good Georgia.
[1:50:30] Yes, 10. 10. He scored four against Barnsley.
[1:50:33] That which inflates his fucking numbers.
[1:50:35] I hope Chelsea are watching that barley you.
[1:50:37] Hyped up a lot. He's still in 19, he's a 20 year
[1:50:41] old kid. Like he still has potential.
[1:50:43] It's just right now Barnsley. I'm not waiting for Garnacho to
[1:50:46] turn into a good player. Right now I don't have the time.
[1:50:49] I need Cunha, I need Ambuemo players that obviously fit in
[1:50:52] Prem systems, yes, who have played in similar styles.
[1:50:55] I need those players. They come at a price like 80
[1:50:58] million. Yes, and that's why I'm not
[1:51:00] going to give it S, but I could give it an A minus.
[1:51:03] It's a for me, it's a lot of money, I agree.
[1:51:06] But. And the fact that.
[1:51:07] You deserve a lot of money like he.
[1:51:08] He deserves that price tag. It's not it's not a kudos that
[1:51:12] hasn't performed, but you could say, oh, he's a good player, but
[1:51:16] he hasn't really gotten those goals and assists.
[1:51:18] You know, he's a good player. You know, he gets goals and
[1:51:20] assists. That's a that's a transfer that
[1:51:23] you're, you know, will succeed. My opinion.
[1:51:26] I've never been like, if these players don't turn out cunion
[1:51:29] and Buemo, we're cursed as a club.
[1:51:31] Like we might as well shut it down like like liquidate the
[1:51:33] club, restart from scratch because then there's something
[1:51:37] an issue within the club. Rebound.
[1:51:39] Yeah, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
[1:51:42] Anyway, when Bueno has 242 appearances for Brentford and
[1:51:46] ECKA. TK OK so check Sala stats before
[1:51:48] joining Liverpool. So ECKA.
[1:51:50] TK just joined Liverpool for 95,000,002.
[1:51:53] Five goals per 90. So Ecka TK just joined Liverpool
[1:51:56] for 95 mil. That's a transfer that you
[1:52:01] should be bringing up as like. I'm gonna bring it up.
[1:52:03] He had one season in the Bundesliga where he played very
[1:52:05] well. I'm gonna have a season in
[1:52:06] league also where he played very well for Montpellier if I
[1:52:10] believe. But I'm gonna bring up that's a
[1:52:11] lot of money, Yeah, for someone that's technically unproven cuz
[1:52:14] it's it's his first good season at Frankfurt.
[1:52:17] Who did He didn't play for whoever you just said.
[1:52:19] PSG who did he play for in France, that he had a good
[1:52:21] season? His Rames.
[1:52:23] Rames scored two goals. Ten goals.
[1:52:25] That's good for yeah, but he had a he had a break.
[1:52:27] He was like 18 there. Yeah, yeah.
[1:52:29] How old is he now? 2021 maybe?
[1:52:30] 23A. Little old.
[1:52:33] No. But ecka TK for 95 mil it look,
[1:52:38] you watch you watch the player in game and you're like this
[1:52:42] guy's a 95 mil player. But then you do have to go back
[1:52:46] to the stats, like I said, with with them.
[1:52:48] Wemo like it is a good player. You you can tell just by
[1:52:52] watching. He's a good player.
[1:52:54] But the golden assists, it was one season, yes, and it's not
[1:52:56] like in Bueno where he has consistently put up those those,
[1:52:59] not those twenty goal numbers, but he has put up recently
[1:53:03] consistent numbers. He's print proven you know
[1:53:04] exactly you're getting a print. Player I could TK stepping up a
[1:53:07] league and he has shown that PSG that he has, he has not Like
[1:53:13] yeah, at PSG he failed. Yeah, he was a flop.
[1:53:16] A major flop. How much do they pay for him?
[1:53:18] 45 mil or 40 mil and they tried to ship him out the door as fast
[1:53:22] as possible. So I mean, any more question
[1:53:24] mark, I think it's a very good transfer.
[1:53:26] I'm going to give it an A but. Oh, you can't give it a name.
[1:53:29] I I love the player that million bro.
[1:53:30] I love the player that much. It's a lot.
[1:53:32] It's too much. I watch him.
[1:53:33] I think this is Alexander. Rizak Yeah, but you just brought
[1:53:35] up all these negatives like we all know the the list.
[1:53:38] Of holding it back from being an S.
[1:53:40] I don't. I don't think this is an S, It
[1:53:42] can't even be remotely close. Look at all the strikers
[1:53:44] Frankfurt has sold in the the past couple of years.
[1:53:46] They all flopped. So you brought up that for
[1:53:50] Yokoresh and the Portuguese strikers.
[1:53:52] Why is this not bringing? Why haven't you brought it up
[1:53:54] for this guy? Because it's not.
[1:53:56] There are Frankfurt players who turned out good.
[1:53:57] It's just not just you can't just pull it down to strikers.
[1:54:01] But just talking about the strikers, like Kolamwani has
[1:54:03] flopped, although he's a good player, but Jovic, Jovic has
[1:54:06] flopped around Madrid even career wise, yeah.
[1:54:10] And the only one is Marmoush, which I think he will do good in
[1:54:13] the Prem and he's been doing good in the in Man City.
[1:54:15] But realistically, like they've been selling them for these high
[1:54:19] prices and. There's a more They haven't
[1:54:21] showed ups than hits, you know? More Frankfurt.
[1:54:23] You're only looking at strikers. Yes, of course you look at the
[1:54:25] whole team, it's a different story, but Ekitige is is a
[1:54:28] striker, so you compare it to other strikers.
[1:54:32] But I I think Bundesiga have a higher hit rate if you look at
[1:54:35] strikers than other leagues in my personal.
[1:54:37] This needs to be a hit for 95,000,000.
[1:54:39] It needs to be. It needs to be a like I mean.
[1:54:41] It's not. It's not like Man United where
[1:54:43] that 95 mil actually matters. Like Liverpool.
[1:54:45] Obviously 95 mils not pennies, but Liverpool will survive if he
[1:54:49] fails. They survived our Darwin Nunez,
[1:54:51] more or less. Yeah, back-to-back.
[1:54:53] I don't know, it's just it's just 95 mil.
[1:54:56] You can't be happy with a ten goal season because Darwin
[1:54:59] Nunez, I think. He can be happy with 15.
[1:55:02] No, What did Darwin Nunez do last season?
[1:55:04] Yeah, but Darwin Nunez wasn't a starter.
[1:55:06] He he came off the bench, and Darwin Nunez offers nothing
[1:55:09] outside of his poke. Yeah.
[1:55:10] Also choked in the Champions League.
[1:55:12] Like Eketique if he scores 15 to 20.
[1:55:15] But it's also about it's like you could say Firmino wasn't
[1:55:18] worth the money. He never got the goals and
[1:55:20] assists. Like no, Firmino facilitated
[1:55:22] first. Mane and Salah took the team up
[1:55:24] a level. Like Darwin two seasons ago,
[1:55:27] like 54 games, eighteen goals, 13 assists, 11 in the Prem, 8
[1:55:30] assists in the Prem. Like he's had that mediocre
[1:55:33] season and. He's but he offers nothing
[1:55:36] outside of those like he's, he's a purely goals and assists
[1:55:39] player. You watch him and you want to
[1:55:40] claw, claw your eyes out. We'll see how IQ TK plays, but I
[1:55:43] don't think if you're expecting him to be like a like this this
[1:55:47] like one man, one man 9 and like false 9.
[1:55:50] I don't know, like he's not playing that he's gonna be more
[1:55:52] of a traditional 9 for Liverpool.
[1:55:54] No, you think he's going to be a like a like a false 9?
[1:55:58] Yes. I don't agree.
[1:56:00] Like RIP Jota, but he wasn't an out and out nine.
[1:56:03] But that's because he slot was using him to his best ability.
[1:56:08] This is exactly how he's going to use that KTKI.
[1:56:10] Don't know. I'm not going to act like I
[1:56:11] watch Frankfurt every game, so I don't know exactly how he plays,
[1:56:13] but from all the comps it seems like there's a guy that wants to
[1:56:16] go forward. How big?
[1:56:18] How did Marmoush get? How did you get the best out of
[1:56:20] Marmoush at Frankfurt? Facilitating play with Ekatiki.
[1:56:23] You're going to see the same exact thing with Salik.
[1:56:24] Yeah, but hold up, hold up, in false 9 isn't the same thing.
[1:56:27] He can do both. He's 6 foot three.
[1:56:30] I see him literally mold him into the perfect.
[1:56:32] Strike, I see him as last season, Slot realized how much
[1:56:35] how much action Dapo was getting by being a big man and having
[1:56:38] salad, having salad, those cross balls in and then he just like,
[1:56:41] wow, why can't I just do this with a striker?
[1:56:43] So now I think he's going to be on the end of those balls, but
[1:56:46] there's no trend. So kind of Asterix, but Salat,
[1:56:50] EKTK, I think is gonna happen very often this season.
[1:56:52] Yeah. As opposed to EKTK to Sala.
[1:56:57] Both both ways work but on the other hand I think Liverpool has
[1:57:01] not missed on a transfer in a while so whoever they target
[1:57:04] always ends up being good. Endo was a serviceable player.
[1:57:08] I mean they bought it for like. 4 mil I think, yeah.
[1:57:11] No, I'm not gonna look at that as a miss.
[1:57:13] I think, yeah, maybe Max. OK, let's Max Mill.
[1:57:15] Yeah, like he turned out to be. So.
[1:57:18] A rotational player. I'm sure he'll do fine, I just
[1:57:20] think how are you? 5 million is a lot.
[1:57:22] Yeah, that's Arwen. Nunez is practically the only
[1:57:24] miss in Liverpool history. Maybe Sobo's a lot you could
[1:57:26] argue is a miss. Not history, but last.
[1:57:29] Fall since Edwards came in. Yeah, exactly.
[1:57:34] But yeah. Do we wanna discuss Evan
[1:57:36] Ferguson? Quickly?
[1:57:37] I think quickly. We could see that.
[1:57:38] I know you're in a fair. You're an enjoyer of Evan
[1:57:40] Ferguson. I I think you'll do OK in in
[1:57:43] seti out, but like Dolvic's there, so I don't know.
[1:57:46] I don't know where, why? Did Roma like what was the
[1:57:48] thinking behind this for Roma? Because Dolvic?
[1:57:50] Dolvic wasn't amazing, isn't. But near the end of the season,
[1:57:53] he kind of picked it up. He played a lot better.
[1:57:55] They need a backup striker. And he pays almost like.
[1:57:58] Him buy one for 10 mil or would you rather loan him in?
[1:58:01] It's going to the loan's going to be cheap.
[1:58:02] Yeah, you loan him in if he actually turns out better than
[1:58:05] dub Vick, the high ceiling. You have a 40 mil striker that
[1:58:08] was of 100 mil at one point. Yeah.
[1:58:11] He has a higher ceiling than Dub Vick.
[1:58:12] He's a youngster that knows his place and will be on the bench
[1:58:15] throughout the season. It's a good deal.
[1:58:17] And then it's an option to buy Gutini.
[1:58:18] Gets the best out of players like.
[1:58:19] Yes. Especially youngsters, Yeah.
[1:58:21] Could be as could be as Malinowski.
[1:58:23] No, almost no no more in the sense of like a sub, like a
[1:58:27] super sub. If he, if he's clinical and if
[1:58:30] he's consistent off the bench, yeah, he could be his person.
[1:58:33] Zapata. No, but Zapata was a starter.
[1:58:36] Was. Morial yeah, I'm sorry though,
[1:58:39] spending 40 mil on a backup striker when you it's an option.
[1:58:44] Okay, so then it's 10 mil. It was. 4 mil plus 36 It was 4
[1:58:47] mil it's. 4 and 36. That's not bad.
[1:58:49] That's not bad. Then out of the backup, then
[1:58:51] it's not that bad. Highly back but.
[1:58:53] Still, you're still starting constante so.
[1:58:55] And I think honestly it's a player that could dominate city
[1:58:59] up. Like I'm not saying right away,
[1:59:01] but the potential is really good that the.
[1:59:04] Potential at the time when he was.
[1:59:05] He's one of the highest potential City Up players I
[1:59:07] think. At that time I.
[1:59:08] Really like him. You, you probably said, I'm
[1:59:10] remember you've been saying he would be City up by striker he.
[1:59:13] He I don't know about Striker. No, he said this like I'm
[1:59:15] talking way back when he was good at writing.
[1:59:16] But the potential is unreal in my opinion.
[1:59:19] But you must be getting old at this point.
[1:59:20] We were talking about the three years ago 21.
[1:59:22] Yeah, he broke up. Impossible.
[1:59:23] He seemed very young. Impossible.
[1:59:25] Yeah. He's 20 in October.
[1:59:28] Crazy. My that's fucked.
[1:59:29] So he was like. 18, bro. The last few years he's been
[1:59:32] battling injuries. He had a bad loan deal at West
[1:59:35] Ham. But I mean, I looked I looked
[1:59:36] into West Hams. Do you know West Ham have missed
[1:59:39] on like 500 mil straight of strikers?
[1:59:41] Like straight missed full crew like they're actually the worst
[1:59:44] striker signers of all time. But.
[1:59:46] Plus is there, I don't know it's.
[1:59:47] We're looking back at it, so it's.
[1:59:48] Easier to see they haven't hit on a striker signing in 20 we.
[1:59:51] Could have told you full crew wouldn't have worked.
[1:59:52] We could have told that we did. We could have told you Scamaca
[1:59:54] wouldn't have worked. Bro you say this in hindsight
[1:59:57] bro the second they signed scamaca.
[1:59:58] We were like, Oh my. God bro W time are cooking.
[2:00:00] Well then why didn't we sign them in FPL?
[2:00:03] That was last year. Exactly.
[2:00:04] Yeah. You're talking about first of
[2:00:06] all, he was at Atlanta last year and then two years ago we still
[2:00:10] signed. We did sign him in FPL, not me.
[2:00:13] Anyways, Yep, not to see our list though.
[2:00:16] Yeah, or what? What?
[2:00:17] Some strikers? Yeah, the only two players that
[2:00:20] hit but weren't even signed as strikers.
[2:00:23] Bowen was signed as a winger and Antonio was signed as a wing
[2:00:25] back that ended up somehow playing striker.
[2:00:27] Who's hit? Kudu's not striker.
[2:00:29] Yeah, like a winger. What?
[2:00:30] Happened with Antonio and did he get released?
[2:00:32] I think he's back. He's running now.
[2:00:34] No, no, no. No, but by club.
[2:00:35] Did Winston give him a new contract?
[2:00:37] No, but he's not. He's still.
[2:00:39] He's still under contract. Is he?
[2:00:41] Yeah, I'm pretty sure he's not. I haven't seen his name at all
[2:00:44] linked to anywhere, so I'm assuming he's still on.
[2:00:46] Contract. Yeah.
[2:00:46] Because no, Why would somebody want him?
[2:00:49] I don't know, he scored like over 100%.
[2:00:52] Nobody cares. Yeah.
[2:00:53] He's got a big injury. Yeah, but motherfuckers are
[2:00:56] willing to sign Malaysia. You can sign fucking Antonio.
[2:00:59] Bro no, but he got into a car crash remember?
[2:01:01] Yeah, but Malaysia injuries, this guy didn't play for two
[2:01:04] years and someone still signed him so.
[2:01:06] Anyways, those are the transfers and I think that's that's it for
[2:01:10] the podcast. Yeah, I will be doing Q&A on
[2:01:12] Patreon. Yeah, that's going to be
[2:01:14] exciting. Yep.
[2:01:14] Make sure to check it out. Thanks for watching everyone.
[2:01:17] We'll see you guys next week. Thank you.
