## Transcript

[0:00] Welcome back to the Boxer Box podcast.
[0:02] This is episode 69 and should Man United buy Sheshko for 80
[0:06] million or should they look elsewhere?
[0:08] And over in Seria, the Jashari and Lookman deals are stalled
[0:11] should smaller teams cave in to player demands.
[0:13] And who's had the best transfer window so far this summer?
[0:15] All that and more on the Boxer Box Podcast.
[0:18] Let's go. You ain't going home.
[0:20] Your Honor, I'm sorry. Your Honor, I'm sorry.
[0:26] And also on the pitch. And Bangula starts our next.
[0:36] Game tomorrow. Would you rather saliva and
[0:38] Buffett right? Saliva right now.
[0:41] You wouldn't when you lie. That's right, now.
[0:50] Boys, we made it episode 69. Huge.
[0:53] Nice, massive. Closing in on 100.
[0:57] I would say that this is a bigger treatment.
[0:58] That's a big milestone. I would say especially for
[1:01] double digits. This is probably the most
[1:04] relevant. Would you say what's more
[1:06] relevant, 50 or 69? 6969, definitely.
[1:09] So this is the the biggest episode we've had so far other
[1:12] than one. 100% I would say so. I would say this is a milestone.
[1:15] Well, no, they say. Then they say something about
[1:17] podcasts that they don't get to the 1st 30 if you get.
[1:20] No, I think it's like. 10. First, yeah, first ten.
[1:22] I think like 90% of the podcasts don't make it to the 1st 10
[1:25] episodes. We made it to 69.
[1:28] Yeah, I would want to see the stack of 100 then, because 100,
[1:31] I don't know many podcasts that get the episode 100.
[1:33] Anyone can make it to 100, but are you making their
[1:36] successfully? Exactly.
[1:37] That's the question. So I think this is the final
[1:39] double digit milestone. This might be the final
[1:42] milestone you. Never know, it's about downer.
[1:44] Premiere. You never know, but but yeah,
[1:47] episode 100 coming soon. Couple things soon.
[1:51] Episode 100 should be around the time where where Inter is
[1:53] getting knocked out of. Yeah, it should be around the
[1:55] corner. I I think that's gonna be a
[1:56] monster milestone. Imagine Inter got knocked out
[1:58] the week of. What's your prediction of what's
[2:01] gonna happen on episode 100? Episode 100 is what?
[2:04] It's 31 weeks from now. 31 No. 21, So Champions League is in
[2:07] 66. So there's 31 near the end of
[2:11] the season. Honestly, I think from now I
[2:12] think it would be around quarterfinals of Champions
[2:14] League. 31 weeks is how many months?
[2:17] 7 and 33 quarters. It's 66% of the year, so
[2:20] whatever that is. 832. Well, no, 3032 would be 8, so
[2:24] it's a little bit less than 8-8 months.
[2:26] It would be around semi finals of champions.
[2:28] League, so we're in the semi finals the 8th month, so it's in
[2:31] the 16th. What the fuck are you on?
[2:33] Third. Yeah, whatever.
[2:34] It's like semi finals, just yeah, we'll meet.
[2:35] Early FC we're tapped in like that, will.
[2:37] Already be out. Yeah, yeah, it's.
[2:38] March. So I'm assuming that there's no
[2:40] emergency pod. I'm assuming all four of us are
[2:43] not in any major competitions by that time.
[2:45] Asking. It for yourself.
[2:46] I'm going to be in a minute title race, mid title race and.
[2:48] Mid title race, yeah. Actually in.
[2:50] The mid game a week I see the. Freudian slip in a mid title
[2:52] race, yeah. Title race is done already at
[2:55] that point. Yeah, that title's already.
[2:57] Title's already won. Matthias Cunas, Player of the
[3:00] Season. We're good.
[3:01] Catabau Cup lifted or not? I don't care about that
[3:04] confidence. No FA Cup.
[3:05] I don't care about that cup. When you don't have much view
[3:07] for you, I think you take what you could get.
[3:09] A Prem. I'll take that you.
[3:10] Know. No, that's not how it works.
[3:11] Yeah, that is Carabao and that fake car so should be high on.
[3:15] Your how many trophies winning over there?
[3:17] Millie, 22. What's that?
[3:20] It's codeto a couple. A couple super copper throw it
[3:23] in. So normally I'm all for like,
[3:26] okay, whatever, another shit week for Ferrari.
[3:28] Like, let's not, let's just glance over it, move on to the
[3:31] next topic, you know? But Lewis Hamilton, this guy's
[3:34] dog shit. It's not about.
[3:36] I have to say, I have to say, because there's no way this guy,
[3:38] is he the highest paid F1 driver or no, or second, he's
[3:41] definitely talking. To Verstappen's first
[3:43] Verstappen. But whatever money Ferrari gave
[3:45] this guy, they need to get that money back because this guy is
[3:47] top scammer. Potentially ever.
[3:49] Can't get it back. Potentially top scammer.
[3:51] This reminds me seriously of like I said, the parallels were
[3:56] were exactly the same, like Ronaldo joining UVA and and Man
[3:59] United. And the same man that both of
[4:01] them. Like the guy, John Elkin, the
[4:03] guy, the guy was way past his prime.
[4:05] You know, he's way past his prime.
[4:07] He's never gonna regain that that.
[4:09] Battling for a world championship until the until the
[4:11] final race week. Like literally two seasons
[4:14] before he joined Ferrari. Yeah, just like how Ronaldo was
[4:16] winning boundaries right before he left for for Man United and
[4:19] UVA. Man United, yeah, which with the
[4:21] throw throw himself, he finished years after.
[4:23] I'm I'm pretty sure Ronaldo finished.
[4:25] I don't remember where he finished the year he joined Man
[4:27] United in Balador. It was definitely high.
[4:30] Don't remember. So 20, this guy's just producer,
[4:34] just little sprinkle a little bit of rage information.
[4:36] Producer T you don't know what you just did because by saying
[4:39] 20 it could have been look, it could have been 20.
[4:42] I doubt it. I think it was probably single
[4:43] digits. But you just created the entire
[4:45] Ronaldo, really, Arsenal. Knew it was 20.
[4:48] The Ronaldo Arsenal is now gonna be anti producer TI don't think
[4:52] he knows. Rage Toxic by producer T He says
[4:54] things with so much confidence that you think it's true, I
[4:57] believe, but it's completely. That's how you do it.
[4:59] Producer T Are you team Messi or Ronaldo?
[5:03] Messy, messy, messy, messy joyer.
[5:05] But he's never going to rap a UA player, right?
[5:07] Exactly. That's how it works.
[5:09] But he knows. Well, yeah.
[5:11] So can you guys tell me what Hamilton said?
[5:13] He might quit? No today or, he said.
[5:15] OK, you gotta understand. It's just like.
[5:18] He threw in a pitchy put the rage bait.
[5:20] No, it's is. I think it's just like he's just
[5:22] mentally destroyed. That's what Ferrari does to.
[5:25] Vote for the comments he made. After both finished what, 4th or
[5:27] 5th? 4th 4th But that was.
[5:29] Oh my God. And the team let him down and he
[5:31] finished fourth. I turned the TV off.
[5:33] The pace was just gone. Wasn't the car under fueled or
[5:35] something like that? No.
[5:36] It was like something happened with the chassis mid race, like
[5:39] like in the 50th lap. And then his pace, his race pace
[5:42] was like tractor level. It made no sense.
[5:45] It made no. Sense but Leclerc gets pull in
[5:47] qualifying and Hamilton doesn't even make it.
[5:48] To yeah, but Hamilton and that's that's what I was saying, like
[5:51] Hamilton after qualifying, it was very strange and I'm not
[5:54] sure if there is any sort of sarcasm in what he said, but he
[5:56] was way too direct. He's like the the, the the
[6:00] journalist asked him like, you know what happened today,
[6:02] whatever he's like he basically just said like I was asked yeah,
[6:05] he basically just told the car is there.
[6:07] He's like the car is there. Clearly one of us got pull and
[6:09] I'm asked but like it was so direct that it makes me think
[6:12] like maybe there was some sarcasm behind it.
[6:15] Like I don't know, maybe trying to get?
[6:16] Ahead of you. Just no.
[6:17] He's trying to get ahead of the ass allegation.
[6:19] Drivers, drivers don't say that about them.
[6:21] And he literally then followed up and the and the journalists
[6:24] like anything else, 'cause he literally just said I'm ass.
[6:26] Then the journalist, like anything else, what everyone
[6:28] has, he's like, oh, they make sure they should try a new
[6:29] driver. Try a new driver.
[6:30] And then the journalist had to like, help him out.
[6:32] He's like, OK, you know, you're better than that.
[6:34] Yeah, he's like, come on, man. He's gotta be.
[6:36] Sarcastic. A little too hard on himself.
[6:38] You know what sucks is like, I've always been a Hamilton
[6:40] hater. Yeah, always like more than more
[6:42] than Verstappen, just because like he's one of the he.
[6:46] Took too many years. He's, he's, you know, he's an
[6:47] amazing driver. He's like generational driver,
[6:51] second best of Schumacher, but the fact that he almost beat
[6:53] Schumacher's record, in my opinion, was never, bless your
[6:56] producer team was never at the same level as Schumacher.
[6:59] And that pissed me off. So that's why I was one of his
[7:01] haters. And now seeing his downfall at
[7:02] my at my team is worse. Yeah, 'cause now he's
[7:06] downfalling at my team. Won't.
[7:08] Win a drivers champion at Ferrari and you're taking up a
[7:11] spot like it's it's kind of brutal.
[7:13] But I do think that hopefully new regulations next season.
[7:17] Hamilton's done. Hamilton's done.
[7:19] This was just all APR thing. This was all just APR thing.
[7:22] Fucking signs. Leclair would have been amazing
[7:23] this season. This season, yeah.
[7:25] And I, I think they, he, they knew their place.
[7:27] If you got motherfuckers reminiscent about Carlos Sainz,
[7:30] then you are. Ass but you No, but no, that's
[7:32] like you gotta. Think of the options.
[7:33] Yeah, like I think, I think science, science is getting
[7:37] railed by. Williams right now, yeah, yes,
[7:39] like. He's a very, very good driver.
[7:41] How? Long is Hamilton's contract.
[7:43] Four years. He only has 2 after this.
[7:46] Too many I think only it's 2. Years.
[7:48] What do you do? Do you stick with him even next
[7:50] year or you? Try to, I would say replace him.
[7:52] He's there just. But at one point, OK, at one
[7:56] point. No, wait, his contract's not.
[7:58] His contract's not that long. I think it is.
[8:00] I think it's 4I. Think it's four years.
[8:02] I'm not going to cap. I remember it being four years.
[8:04] It's probably the first year of the four year.
[8:06] But if Verstappen becomes available again, you gotta you
[8:10] gotta buy Hamilton out of that contract.
[8:12] Then it ends up being a billion dollar maneuver.
[8:15] You have to pay 400 million, you have to pay Hamilton out and
[8:18] then pay Verstappen. Just crazy.
[8:20] Dude, you don't think that F1 would grow tremendously with
[8:23] Verstappen being the face of Ferrari?
[8:25] OK, take take that money and put it in the development of the
[8:27] car. Get some new engineers.
[8:28] That's what you need to do. You can have the two best
[8:30] drivers in the world. If you But you don't think you
[8:31] don't think that if Ferrari won't win, if Ferrari had
[8:34] Verstappen, the TV rights deal and everything wouldn't go up
[8:37] like tremendously. I'm sure it would, but then
[8:40] you're taking all that inherent value of Red Bull out.
[8:42] Nobody will be repping Red Bull, ever.
[8:45] I'm seeing options. We'll probably when did he sign
[8:47] the did he sign? Signed it six months before the
[8:51] season I'm pretty sure. Lewis Hamilton signed A2 year
[8:53] contract with Ferrari in 2025. Hamilton won early base salary.
[8:57] I'm short I I think. I think 2026 is an option.
[9:01] I thought it was. Long, I think it's an option or
[9:03] some shit. I don't know.
[9:04] I don't know. I have to look into it, but I, I
[9:05] know I guarantee you it's not four years.
[9:07] It's definitely not four years. I remember.
[9:08] It being. Long because I was stupid, but
[9:09] not that stupid. But I.
[9:10] Remember that number being insane?
[9:12] But look, look, yeah, the numbers are insane, like money
[9:15] wise, but look at all the second drivers.
[9:17] And McLaren is the only team with two drivers that are like 1
[9:20] consistently near each other in the pack.
[9:22] Antonelli. Yeah, Russell, Sonoda, Hamilton,
[9:28] all the second driver. Second driver.
[9:29] Yeah, like all the second drivers second like all the all
[9:32] the lower drivers are always so far and not helping.
[9:35] Yes, and it doesn't help the team at all.
[9:37] At all. They never officially announced
[9:39] it, Yeah, but it's a multi year believed to be at least two
[9:42] years with an option for a third.
[9:43] Yeah. That's smart.
[9:46] It get him gets him into the right new regs.
[9:48] So like, then again, like, who would we have?
[9:50] It's good to have Hamilton when there's new regulations because
[9:53] he's seen a shit ton of new regulations and he can help
[9:56] behind the scenes like. Just got to listen.
[9:58] Yeah, the engineers. Got to listen.
[10:00] No one's listening right now at Ferrari.
[10:02] It's such a piss off. Well, Speaking of what we're
[10:04] speaking about, one team in red that's on the downfall.
[10:07] Let's speak about a Raymond Todd, the team in red,
[10:09] Manchester United, we are officially Premier League summer
[10:13] series champions. Lift up.
[10:15] So already we're up 1 nothing on everyone on the podcast, I'm up
[10:18] 1 nothing. You guys are all still trophy
[10:20] lists this season. You realize this is like the
[10:22] level this. Is even even Arsenal could have
[10:26] won a trophy the Hong Kong Invitational.
[10:28] They even bottled that. So Artetas off to a good start
[10:31] in phase 17. Yakadesh obviously did not help
[10:34] bring in any more trophies. But Manchester United, we'll
[10:37] speak about them for two seconds, 2 seconds.
[10:40] I don't know. We we've been already we're off
[10:42] to a heater this season undefeated.
[10:45] The fuck is he talking? 1-2 games, tied one and we're
[10:49] looking to invest even more into our super team, even more into
[10:53] our super team. 80 million on a striker, Benjamin Chesco.
[10:56] Now, obviously Benjamin Chesco is not, he's not early Highland.
[11:00] Let me just say that yet. He's not early Highland yet.
[11:03] But look, I'm not the gimmick is up right now.
[11:07] We do. We do have like 6 positions that
[11:09] we need to invest in or five, I would say in our team.
[11:12] You look across our back line, I don't know if you can justify
[11:15] spending 80 million on a striker when you still need, I would
[11:19] say, a midfielder. Cause Ugarte's still cheeks.
[11:21] Like there's no debating that. No, he's cheeks.
[11:23] No, he's cheeks. Yeah, he's Cheeks.
[11:24] Oh, he's cheeks. But you see, I I learned when to
[11:27] cut my losses, you know? Like yours hasn't even started.
[11:30] Like no, the issue is is that you like right now Milan are
[11:33] playing Ruben Loftus cheek and you can't.
[11:36] I like Loftus cheeks. Exactly what is he hasn't even
[11:39] shown when to cut the line. You don't understand when I've
[11:42] never called Loftus. Cheeks world class.
[11:43] I think you have a callus. Name has made that's that was an
[11:46] ash transfer. Let's move on to the next one.
[11:48] Who? You don't understand how to do
[11:50] that yet. What the fuck is this guy?
[11:53] Talking about, it's not right. Like just.
[11:55] Off the chica's cheeks. He hasn't even played.
[11:58] You're cutting your losses in Ugarth.
[11:59] He hasn't even started the season.
[12:00] Is Mason Mount a bad transfer or no?
[12:02] You tell me. It is a bad transfer.
[12:04] But he hasn't played. But he's played last season,
[12:05] but. He played like 5 games you.
[12:07] You bought a guy and paid a guy to not play.
[12:09] It's a bad transfer. So injured, Injured all the
[12:11] time. So I don't know how how I'm
[12:13] being told I'm wrong here. Left his cheek, hasn't played.
[12:16] He's been mid for a What's? The Why are we talking about his
[12:19] cheek? Because Milan fans can't
[12:22] understand what a bad transfer looks like.
[12:25] I know what a bad transfer looks like.
[12:26] Ugarte needs to be replaced. We need a new center back.
[12:31] What? OK, no, continue.
[12:32] Sorry. Whatever having a tragedy of a
[12:33] performance. What I don't understand what
[12:35] this tragedy of performance is, I mean.
[12:37] You literally ripped Millie for saying DeMarco shit all of a
[12:39] sudden now you're doing the same thing.
[12:41] Why? Ugarte had one horrible year and
[12:43] his first one at and he was horrible this preseason.
[12:46] Obviously he's been our worst. Offending him all of last
[12:47] season. Been he's been, yeah, because
[12:49] obviously when a new signing comes in, he starts off rough.
[12:51] But now it's been over a year and you expect OK.
[12:54] He's defend him until the end of the last season, saying he's had
[12:57] good performances. Yeah, he's had decent cameos,
[13:00] but I like, once again, he's never put in five games where he
[13:03] played well. What?
[13:05] Am I lying? This is a very big agenda
[13:07] switch. It's not an agenda.
[13:08] You got to give us some notice before you agenda switch.
[13:11] This is not an agenda. 30 day notice.
[13:13] Nothing happens all summer. Well, Garde went from being bro
[13:16] give him. Because he came back and he's
[13:17] the same fucking dog shit player.
[13:19] Preseason dog, He has a peanut of a brain.
[13:22] It's like bit in my mouth from there.
[13:23] That's crazy, crazy. It's preseason bro.
[13:26] Did you say I spat in? His I just got hit with a I just
[13:28] got hit with a saliva. 69 right now kind of wild a. 6.
[13:33] Foot. But continue so there's multiple
[13:36] positions. We also definitely need a
[13:38] goalkeeper before the season. You don't want being there.
[13:41] That he, I'm not even kidding in.
[13:43] Yeah, that was I'm not. I think I said this before on
[13:45] the podcast last year. He's genuinely the worst
[13:48] goalkeeper I've ever watched. He makes Onana look service.
[13:51] I agree like. Like like I watch in preseason
[13:54] and I think while the team is gonna get a lot better with
[13:56] Onana in in it, but that's not like, oh, Nana's terrible.
[14:00] So like it's he is actually the worst goalkeeper I've ever
[14:04] watched play a professional game of football.
[14:05] He must have something on these brothers or something in the
[14:08] head office, some videos or photos.
[14:10] He's got some got some skeletons in that 'cause I just.
[14:12] Have no other options. Yeah, bro, they were taking
[14:14] pictures of Tom Heaton and like Tom did, he on the back.
[14:16] Genuinely our best keeper. I'm not even.
[14:18] Did you see Amrim responding to a journalist's question about
[14:20] Anana? No.
[14:21] What did he say? It was something about like, So
[14:23] are you looking to replace Anana?
[14:25] And he's like, we have good goalkeepers.
[14:27] We have. We have to say no, no, obviously
[14:29] he's protecting his. Defensive Garnacho and shit last
[14:31] night and now he's part of the bomb squad.
[14:32] The the way he responded, yeah, he calls him the the five or
[14:36] whatever. Manchester 5, Manchester 5.
[14:38] The Bomb squad. I got to say the way that Amaram
[14:40] answers to the question, he's he's quick.
[14:42] Like they were saying in the comments, he's press resistant.
[14:44] He he's. Honestly, one.
[14:46] He because the journalist kept saying, can you just answer the
[14:48] question like is is Onana your starting keeper or are you
[14:51] looking for alternatives? And he's like, you make
[14:54] questions. I do something like that but it
[14:57] was called. We spoke about this today.
[15:00] Well not this specifically, but he is one of the best like
[15:03] communicating managers to the press I feel like in the world
[15:06] now. It's a big I.
[15:08] Don't give a fuck thing to say. I don't give a fuck about that
[15:11] because brother, give me a defensive structure.
[15:15] I couldn't care less about how he speaks to the press.
[15:16] If you don't have a good defensive structure, being good
[15:19] with the press is good because Kante is an amazing manager, but
[15:22] he's terrible with the press. So like that's you're.
[15:23] Not you're, you're He's good with the press, but he's not
[15:25] good with the press. Deep it bro.
[15:28] Episode 69, yeah. Deep it.
[15:31] What you're telling me we're. Thinking back to the topic at
[15:33] hand. So would you?
[15:34] Yeah, I think. I was thinking about it now,
[15:35] just monologuing so I don't understand.
[15:37] So would. You because you were you're
[15:39] you're just started shitting on ring on the cheeks.
[15:41] I love the cheeks for no reason. Yeah, but yeah, you're getting
[15:43] to it. So your defensive structure
[15:45] isn't good, your goalkeeper isn't good.
[15:47] No, I didn't say our defensive structure isn't good.
[15:50] I'm saying like no, with one game a week, if we don't have a
[15:53] good defensive structure this year, then obviously there's a
[15:55] coaching issue because I'm on the belief that our, our, our
[15:59] defenders actually aren't that bad.
[16:00] Like I think Lenny Euro is good. I think, bro, there's players
[16:04] there that have proven themselves on the world stage,
[16:07] like like Delict has proven himself.
[16:09] He might not be the world class center back that we thought he
[16:13] would be, but you can't tell me Delict's a bad defender.
[16:16] He's not. He's not the the Rolls Royce or
[16:18] anything that we thought. Everton have two defenders that
[16:20] are the same level as Delict. OK, two center backs.
[16:23] Brant Wit's probably, Yeah. Brant Wit's very good.
[16:25] Tarkovsky is nowhere near and don't need so talk about that.
[16:29] FBO wise is better but don't even come talk to me about
[16:32] Target. But what you're saying is that.
[16:34] Using the Prem have a better center back core than Manchester
[16:37] United. I'm not kidding.
[16:38] You guys would be in maybe 10th in center in center back, in
[16:42] center back sheets. I'm we're not, it's not rage.
[16:44] We're not going to start. Listening.
[16:45] We're not going to. We're not going.
[16:46] To listen, but I, I, I just disagree with you.
[16:49] We'll put it at that. You just don't want to think
[16:51] about. It I I'm not going to go OK, so
[16:53] let's sit here in silence guys for the next 10 minutes.
[16:56] So I while I think about the center back pairings in the
[16:58] Premier League. OK, well.
[16:59] It's not complicated. Just understand though, you're
[17:02] saying your defenders are not bad, so would you spend 80
[17:06] million on Chesko? I'd rather spend the 80 million
[17:10] on a midfielder than a striker to be honest.
[17:12] I think Rasmus Hoyland is the second coming of Satan, but I I
[17:16] think I would I would rather spend 80 million on a
[17:18] midfielder. On on like an ugarte.
[17:20] Report I would rather buy 24 A 40 million mid and a 40 million
[17:23] striker. That's what I'd rather do but
[17:25] but. Then you're getting 2.
[17:26] Cheshko 2 Mid. Well, you could get Mateta for.
[17:29] I'd rather take as a striker. I'd rather take 250% shots than
[17:35] 170. You don't need shots, you need
[17:37] guarantees. Mateta.
[17:39] I don't know if Cheshko's a guarantee.
[17:41] If if we were spending 80 million on Holland, I would say
[17:44] no, no, OK, yes, you pay. I agree.
[17:46] I no no I agree 80 million on a striker is not worth it when you
[17:49] have a lot of other holes in your system.
[17:52] Yeah, and I, I actually, I, I've watched this was before we were
[17:55] really linked to Cesco. I've watched YouTube videos and
[17:58] that actually I, I'm starting to believe less and less that the
[18:01] striker important. The striker position, I would
[18:03] argue is either first or second least important position on the
[18:06] team. I, I genuinely believe that I
[18:09] think the striker than you were the the more, the more you move
[18:13] up the pitch. Actually, let me like the most
[18:17] important phase is definitely the midfield and attacking
[18:20] midfielders and then it's a. Midfield clear first.
[18:23] In terms of importance on the pitch, where would you guys like
[18:25] what? What's first for you guys?
[18:26] One creator. I agree attacking midfielder.
[18:29] I think you're gonna attacking midfielder because that's the
[18:32] player you. Have no who.
[18:33] Actually pulls the strings for the entire team.
[18:36] You could you could be a a decent defensive team, but if
[18:39] you don't have a good creator, you're never gonna score, so
[18:41] that doesn't matter. But two I want to say like.
[18:45] Wingers, why are you putting attacking midfielder no.
[18:47] I would say like depends what your system is because it really
[18:49] matters the way you attack. But like a guy that a guy that
[18:52] decides pace like a like a like a DLP, like a like a proper.
[18:55] Centerman. Yeah, like, but deeper, the guy
[18:57] that that's that's like Rodri, you can see last season how much
[19:00] Man City really needed somebody to just set tempo.
[19:03] But The thing is, like Manchester United don't
[19:05] necessarily need ADLP because Bruno does the creating and the
[19:08] defending. Yeah, but that's just because
[19:10] you have an anomaly where a guy that can actually run that much,
[19:13] but most teams can't have somebody that's taking the ball
[19:15] between the center backs and also contributing in the other
[19:17] box. Yeah.
[19:18] So I would say both of those are necessary.
[19:20] If you have both of those, you can just fill the rest.
[19:22] If you have two world class players in those positions, the
[19:25] rest of your team can be all right, like sevens on 10's and
[19:27] you'll have a good team. It just for me.
[19:30] I think Striker's one of the most over rated positions.
[19:35] I think now no, but you still need a decent one.
[19:37] Yeah, exactly. I agree with you.
[19:39] You still need a level because Hoyland's obviously beneath that
[19:42] level and he, I'm not even kidding if I think of you just
[19:46] put a regular strike in our team last year.
[19:47] We move up five positions in the Prem or 4 positions.
[19:50] But you guys like the scapegoat, your strikers.
[19:52] He no, no, no, but. You've been doing for a while.
[19:54] He he's. I don't remember the last other
[19:57] than Hoyland, I don't think we've really had like terrible
[20:00] strikers. Like Ronaldo obviously was
[20:02] nowhere near as bad as Ronaldo was just mid, but you just
[20:05] brought him in because you always Ronaldo.
[20:06] You're thinking you're getting like.
[20:08] The best striker in the world. He was not at that level
[20:10] anymore, but Hoiling was genuinely in my opinion a top
[20:14] three worst striker in the Prem. And that's actually me being
[20:16] generous, but your. Your logic is.
[20:18] Your logic is pointing to you saying that xerxe is xerxe is
[20:20] enough. If you started Xerxe 38 games
[20:23] last year, you're getting more out of the team than I don't
[20:25] think Xerxe is also like Xerxe is all right, but he couldn't.
[20:28] Handle it like it was very. It was very clear.
[20:30] That first year also like. I understand.
[20:33] But he was never like that. Instead, Yeah, even he never had
[20:35] a season that he proved that like he's a great 9, like he's.
[20:39] I agree, but we, I don't think if you have a Sheshko plus
[20:42] Xerxy, that's a great 1-2 combo. You have the guy that's like
[20:46] really focusing on like finishing and shooting.
[20:48] And then you have the guy who, let's say you're trying to
[20:50] defend the lead later in games or the team's really sitting
[20:52] back. You have Xerxy who comes off the
[20:54] bench and he plays in between those pockets and everything.
[20:56] Like Halverts and Gilcharache? Yeah.
[20:58] But but then that again, that's an $80 million investment on a
[21:00] project because it's he's not necessarily proven in a in a
[21:03] higher league like I. Don't know if.
[21:05] He If you're able to spend 40 something on a Premier League
[21:08] striker, I do think that that makes it more sure.
[21:12] Thing I've done my research recently on Chesco now I'm not
[21:15] going to say like Oh my God, I'm not going to come on here and
[21:17] say 80 million Oh my God, what a steal.
[21:19] Like I think that Leipzig did actually misuse him, like they
[21:23] didn't actually use him. How Salzburg?
[21:26] I remember when this guy was at Salzburg in CL, we were watching
[21:28] this guy saying, Oh my God, this is Howland 2 point O.
[21:31] So you would think, oh, OK, he's going to go to Leipzig.
[21:33] They're going to play in the exact same way as Holland.
[21:35] He should be like running in behind 24/7, always on the last
[21:39] man, but they actually start using him in like a hold up
[21:41] role. Like it was, it was weird.
[21:43] So I mean, now he's a more all around player than he was when
[21:47] he joined Leipzig. 80 million. It is steep for someone who's
[21:51] never scored more than I think 14 goals or 15.
[21:53] Goals, no, but I think the context is that 80 million is
[21:55] steep for Man United that maybe needs other positions.
[21:58] That's the difference, yeah. Like for Newcastle, I think I
[22:00] would do it if Zach leaves because you need to replace
[22:03] someone with at least potential. But I'm also the idea that if if
[22:06] you think someone's a good player, just go and get him.
[22:09] Not necessarily because if you have gaps at the back, like you
[22:11] said, if your defense is not good, then you have a.
[22:14] Problem like that should apply to all positions.
[22:16] But yeah, do you think that, look, obviously there's there's
[22:20] things, there's such things as fluke seasons, like what?
[22:25] What? What?
[22:26] Yeah, but what do you think? Horrible rage Beta town I.
[22:32] Was well timed though. Yeah, well timed, but what?
[22:36] What do you think is more likely to propel a team into 4th, 5th
[22:40] spot that may not necessarily deserve to be there?
[22:43] It's gonna be your strikers and wingers.
[22:45] Like being very clinical. Yeah, but you, you got and,
[22:48] well, you got Nottingham. Forest Nottingham Forest
[22:50] severely over performed their metrics last year because their.
[22:52] Defense was like like insane. Their defense was very good, but
[22:55] their their forwards severely over performed their statistics.
[22:58] Chris Wood, owner, I. Feel yeah, Chris Wood severely
[23:00] over. Performed stocks, by the way,
[23:02] I'm. Sure, you did sell Chris Wood
[23:03] stocks, but. But yeah, I mean, I think you
[23:06] need defensive. Solution So what do you say?
[23:09] What do you but like if you want we're.
[23:10] Going to get top four, top five this, I think 5th will get a CL.
[23:13] So like even finishing fifth this year gets a CL.
[23:16] If you're going to finish top five this year in the Premier
[23:19] League, I think we're going to need a massive over performance
[23:22] because we're not going to go for, I think we created 44 XG
[23:25] last year, which is ridiculously low.
[23:26] You're not going to go from 44 to like 75 in one season.
[23:30] Yeah. So maybe you go from 44 to 61,
[23:33] which is still very big improvement, but you actually
[23:35] get 70 goals out of that because you over performed, you know?
[23:37] I think you you, this is going to sound like like, not really
[23:41] like analysis in any sense. I think you need to just score
[23:44] more goals than the other teams. I don't think you're going to be
[23:46] that team that wins 10. I don't think we're trying to
[23:48] build a team that just wins 10 though.
[23:50] Because I'm rim, I'm rim at I'm rim.
[23:52] When he was in Portugal, I I was looking at some of his stats,
[23:55] like his team stats. He always scored like the most
[23:58] goals in the league and conceded like an average amount.
[24:01] It's not like it's only one. Year there was one year he he
[24:04] conceded basically nothing like he conceded nothing, but that's
[24:07] also one year out of the four like and I think that year there
[24:11] was they didn't have Yokodesh like it was like a like.
[24:13] You will be winning games by just scoring more goals than
[24:16] everyone else. I I'll take that.
[24:19] But it's it's it's a riskier, it's a riskier play, but 'cause
[24:23] if you play into a low block that just does the counters.
[24:26] But like ever, maybe you. Saw like, like maybe this is
[24:29] just reminiscing on last year and obviously there's players
[24:31] that came out of nowhere that we don't know, but I feel like this
[24:34] year in the Prem, there's not as many bottom, I would say 6 teams
[24:39] or seven teams attackers that are that threatening.
[24:42] In my opinion, yeah. Loki fell out like.
[24:44] Looking at just there was like Ambuemo, like Wisa might leave,
[24:47] like there was Wisa and Buemo, there was Cunha wolves, like
[24:51] there's not as many. You guys will come, but like
[24:55] Ambuemo and Cunha had seasons before that where they just
[24:58] didn't break out. Now we're assuming that new
[25:01] player. Now we knew Bro Cuno was linked
[25:03] to Arsenal last summer. Like it's not like he was like
[25:05] some unknown commodity that came out of nowhere.
[25:08] But like, you know about Stran Larson, let's say I don't think
[25:11] it would happen, but let's say Stran Larson just breaks out
[25:13] this season. Hopefully we're going to be
[25:15] saying, we're going to be saying, oh, we knew Stran Larson
[25:17] was good before this season. Yeah.
[25:19] But it's hard to see right now that he could be like a big
[25:22] player. I I personally don't see that
[25:25] threat coming from and Bournemouth severely this
[25:28] preseason. Bournemouth looks terrible.
[25:30] So if we're just basing it on preseason, a lot of change, but
[25:34] they sold their entire back line, yeah.
[25:35] So I don't know. They may not be 1 to we'll see.
[25:39] And Crystal Palace have Europe this season, Nottingham of
[25:41] Europe this season. Yeah, but you shouldn't be
[25:43] looking at the other teams and saying they don't have threat.
[25:45] You should be looking at your defense and maybe.
[25:48] Yeah, don't justify your like keeping a weak defense going
[25:50] into. This last year we were actually
[25:52] defensively pretty solid under arm room.
[25:54] I wouldn't agree. With the question, the question
[25:56] wasn't the defense, it was the attack.
[25:58] Yeah, but I think now with him Bueno coming in, Cunya coming in
[26:01] those those should honestly, I at first I thought Sheshko would
[26:04] be a good fit for Man United, but more I think about it, these
[26:07] guys could replace the output that Sheshko could bring, you
[26:10] know what I mean? But it's so now you focus on the
[26:12] back, you focus on the fat defense, OK, on the Ugarthe
[26:15] replacement. Do we need an upgrade at
[26:17] Striker? Yes.
[26:19] But you can manage. Right now, but but you're
[26:21] talking about optimization. Would buying Sheshko for 80
[26:24] million make us a better team? Yes.
[26:27] Yes. Is there better ways to spend
[26:29] the 80 million? We can debate that, yes.
[26:31] But buying Sheshko for 80 just because we need a left back or a
[26:35] left center back doesn't mean that buying Sheshko for 80
[26:38] million is a bad move or it's not worth it.
[26:40] Yeah, I'm not saying that. I'm saying maybe thinking about
[26:44] it the the opportunity is there right now.
[26:46] So yeah, you go do it. But I do also see that maybe you
[26:50] don't need that. It really just depends on what
[26:53] Manchester United's transfer strategy is like after buying
[26:56] Sheshko, let's say. Like if they say we're still
[26:58] gonna go heavy and Donoruma in the defense, OK, but Donoruma,
[27:02] let's hold our horses there. We're linked.
[27:04] I don't know I'm. Linked.
[27:05] But that's I'm just saying like if you're able to spend 80 mil
[27:08] on Sheshko and decide and the club says we're still going to
[27:11] be spending big on defenders and let's say a goalkeeper, then
[27:14] then it's different. But if they're saying 80 mil for
[27:17] Sheshko and that kind of stretches it for something else,
[27:20] then yeah, it depends. Yeah.
[27:22] So listen, this is another concern.
[27:24] Transfer strategy. Luke Shaw will inevitably be
[27:26] injured for. Majority we have Lisandro coming
[27:29] back in three weeks or. OK, but what happens?
[27:31] What happens if you get if like Lisandro comes back gets injured
[27:35] when you play a fight back you. Get in heaven.
[27:37] Oh boy. That's you're talking about,
[27:39] you're going oh boy, that's literally our third center back
[27:41] bro. Like when Inter's third left
[27:44] center back. Let me if Bastoni gets injured.
[27:46] OK, Who comes in for Bastoni? Let's go for Inter then.
[27:49] Oh no, But oh boy, it's a problem as well.
[27:52] Got a problem too and you saw it last season when you play when
[27:54] you have 3 center backs. We play one game a week.
[27:57] Yeah, but you need more the. Injuries.
[27:59] Theoretically, you could have gone to Napoli last season, it
[28:01] said. So Bongiorno, do you remember?
[28:02] Oh my God, you're playing Juanitos?
[28:04] You remember. The John Evans season Johnny
[28:06] Evans when he played like fucking. 20 games for you, but
[28:08] that's 10 hog. He's a fucking idiot.
[28:10] Nobody. I'm just saying he's.
[28:12] Our six center. Back it's risk assessment like
[28:14] like yes, an 80 million striker would make your team better, but
[28:17] you also now create a risk by not having we will not.
[28:20] Have this is Amrim spoke about this when he came in how Man
[28:25] United was terribly ran in terms of injuries before he came in.
[28:30] Like the manager was pushing every player to the it's like if
[28:33] there it was an engine 10 hog was running every player on the
[28:36] red. Like it was like he was Max
[28:38] revving every single player, Max revving and finishing fucking
[28:42] 8th or whatever the fuck he finished.
[28:43] That's embarrassing, but he was Max revving every single player.
[28:48] So I was not surprised. Amrim understands more How do OK
[28:52] I need to rest a player here like he didn't play door glue.
[28:55] He didn't push him when and when Will only played today, his
[28:57] first game. He joined the two weeks ago.
[28:59] Like he understands, OK, you need to ease them in.
[29:02] You need to ease them in. A little chunky.
[29:04] Yeah, that wasn't digitally altered, Digitally altered.
[29:08] And also like Herzler was speaking about this for
[29:10] Brighton. Because the Greek players that
[29:13] they just came in, they're like they need to adapt physically to
[29:17] the training levels and everything before I throw them
[29:18] in because then they can start getting injury prone.
[29:21] So injuries I don't think will be of that much of an issue this
[29:25] week. We have a week, we have a, we
[29:27] have a week of preparation for every game.
[29:29] There's some wood behind you, but I suggest you knock on it.
[29:31] I don't need to. I don't need to bro.
[29:34] Creating content with your club is crazy.
[29:37] I don't need to. Can't wait.
[29:39] We're finishing top five this year.
[29:40] Your schedule. First five games looking kind of
[29:42] tough, personal. But I think I'd rather get the
[29:45] tough games at the start. It depends, all right.
[29:48] And then you can catch Arsenal out on, oh, maybe, you know,
[29:50] Arteta's doing some tactical tweaks or anything.
[29:52] Yeah, like I'd rather get Arsenal first week than Arsenal
[29:55] game week 18, you know? All right, I want to pull some
[29:57] stats out that I heard. I'll give credit to Draft FC
[30:01] podcast because I heard it on there, but some of these stats
[30:04] were from an article written by The Athletic, which by the way,
[30:07] I started getting into the Athletic, go to their YouTube
[30:09] videos and their and their. But the problem on the website
[30:11] is I can't read the fucking articles because they make me
[30:13] sign up for the newsletter. Yeah.
[30:14] Yeah, this guy doesn't know the cheat codes, bro.
[30:16] What do you do? It's rookie hour.
[30:18] What do you do? Tell.
[30:19] Me after. Don't say anything about it.
[30:20] I'll I'll say it right here. No, but you don't want.
[30:22] What, the athletics gonna fucking come after us?
[30:25] You don't know bro. When you're open the article.
[30:26] I can't scroll like that. When you open the article on
[30:29] your phone, yeah, it gives you like half a second.
[30:32] I have to do read mode. Yeah, reader mode in the top
[30:34] right and you can read the whole thing, reader mode right away.
[30:37] It gives you half a second. You gotta be like I.
[30:40] Tried to screenshot it a half a second, I should always pop
[30:43] some. But anyway, The Athletics doing
[30:45] some really good stuff lately and I wish I knew the
[30:48] journalist's name, but he was, he was talking about some stats
[30:51] and even the guy on Draft FC podcast was talking about some
[30:53] stats and I just found that interesting.
[30:55] I don't know if it means anything or if it'll carry over
[30:57] into next season, but specifically talking about
[30:59] Embuemo and Kunya. And he was analyzing FPL wise
[31:02] where Embuemo and Kunya should be drafted if you should stay
[31:05] away from them. And he's not a Manchester United
[31:09] fan, he's might be a Spurs fan. So a little bit of he was
[31:14] unbiased but he was saying to stay away from Cunya and Imbuemo
[31:18] in FPL this season and you cannot expect reoccurrence of
[31:22] last season for either of them. Agreed, because if we were to
[31:25] add, what did they score and what did Cheschill score?
[31:27] If we add 56 goals to our team, yeah, winning the league, then
[31:30] we're winning the first league. So obviously I'm not expecting.
[31:33] That so Cunya especially was the second highest over performer of
[31:38] XG in the top five leagues, behind only Patrick Schick.
[31:42] Goddamn. And I think Patrick Schick might
[31:44] have exceeded his XG by like 7 goals or something like that.
[31:47] Sounds about right. By the way, all the facts I'm
[31:49] about to say. I'm sure one of them might be
[31:52] wrong, but just cuz I don't remember a proper.
[31:54] Box of box guarantee. Yeah, for sure.
[31:56] But Cunha, well, this is another problem cuz Cunha and Buemo and
[32:01] Bruno Fernandez are all they all favor like the far shot, like
[32:04] they all favor shots from not outside the box, but nearing the
[32:07] edge of the box. And this season you can't have
[32:09] all three of them taking shots from outside the box.
[32:11] So one of them is going to have to change to more of like a six
[32:14] 6 yard type presence. That's that's inevitable.
[32:17] That's where Sheshko comes in. AM rooms AM rooms inside the
[32:20] box. OK, so the guy, the journalist
[32:25] from the Athletic ran a month like a Monte Carlo simulation
[32:28] 100. 1000 times. I'm already gonna.
[32:30] I know what it is. OK, but can I finish explain for
[32:32] the viewers what a Monte Carlo simulation is?
[32:35] No, but I I know because I looked into the actual like what
[32:37] he uses the parameters for this simulation and he just basically
[32:40] ran the XG stats like because XG is basically the the expected
[32:45] amount that you like the expected chance you have to
[32:47] score that goal. So if it's a .5 XG chance, you
[32:50] should score one out of every two times.
[32:52] But it's not player indexed like and Bueno.
[32:54] I would say had had a signature finish last season.
[32:56] It was the cut in and the shot. Like if you give Masala A
[32:59] curling left foot shot, it's the edge of the box.
[33:01] That's probably much .7. Yeah, it's not the same as it's
[33:05] not the same as fucking Savino. Cut in left foot shot let's say.
[33:10] But they still get the same XG stats.
[33:12] So that's the only caveat in this stat line.
[33:14] But still if you ran that season for Cunha and ambwemo 100,000
[33:18] times you would only get that same season stats wise that
[33:22] Cunha had around 1.7%. But you you turn it that way.
[33:27] And then Ambwemo was the highest expected assister in the Premier
[33:30] League last season. OK, so let me finish then.
[33:32] Ambwemo would have only got that stat line .4 or .5% chance to
[33:38] get that type of season again and a further stat, and I think
[33:42] this was for Cunha. There was 51 players in the
[33:45] last, I think it was seven seasons that got as much as many
[33:50] goals as Cunha, OK got in last season.
[33:53] How many goals did Cunha score? 20. 20, 2019 or 20.
[33:57] I thought it was 20 and five goals were pens.
[33:59] And Wemel scored 20, Kunya scored 15.
[34:02] OK, so maybe it was Kunya. This was for one of the two.
[34:06] But of the 51 players that got this goal tally, only like 6-5
[34:11] or six of them followed that season up with the same amount
[34:13] of stats. And we're talking about names
[34:15] like Sun, like. Very top top names.
[34:18] Yeah, Bowen, like people that have solidified themselves in
[34:20] the Premier League, That's consistent goal getters.
[34:23] There was a couple other stats that he was talking about that
[34:25] that that showed how difficult it will be for Imbuemo and Cunha
[34:29] to follow up that season with a more with another successful
[34:32] season. But.
[34:33] I mean, what do you define as a successful season?
[34:35] Because for me, Imbuemo, if I get, let's just say twenty goals
[34:38] and assists, not 20 goals, I. Understand but season but you
[34:41] you did spend. A.
[34:43] Lot of money. On that OK, so vinyl gittens was
[34:45] 60 million and Buenos 70. I hate, I hate justifying
[34:49] expensive. Transit market.
[34:50] That's the market. But that's Chelsea.
[34:52] I hate justifying expensive transfers with other shit so.
[34:55] Can you find me wingers in and around in Buemos price range
[34:58] that you would you Kudu? So Kudu is gonna get more goals
[35:01] and assists than in Buemos next year?
[35:02] Forget goals and assists, it's just a better player you bought.
[35:06] You bought goals and assists. So does better player get us to
[35:10] 5th or does goals and assists get us to 5th?
[35:12] Well how many people do you want like you?
[35:14] You now have 3 midfielders that can score goals from that
[35:16] distance. Like you lacking A striker like
[35:19] I just. Bruno Fernandez will not be
[35:22] playing that forward this season.
[35:24] He's not going to be. That's like that's like saying,
[35:27] oh, Pedri, Ruffina, Yamal, they all play in the same areas.
[35:30] Like no, they don't play in the same areas.
[35:32] You make it work. Good players work with good
[35:35] players. Real Madrid on my weeks go into
[35:38] every year. Last year was actually true, but
[35:40] we go into every year saying, bro, this team doesn't make
[35:43] sense on paper. They're going to play all in the
[35:44] same zones and shit. It's not going to work.
[35:47] It ends up working bro. Good players find a way to make
[35:49] it. Work.
[35:49] Yeah, PSGPSG had no positions last season and but towards the
[35:52] end it was just cycling whoever's comfortable in which
[35:54] position throughout the match. But this is Cuna and Bueno we're
[35:57] talking. We're not talking about Duway
[35:59] Dembele in Cavada. That's once again, and Bueno has
[36:03] the potential. Cuna has the potential.
[36:05] They'd be one of the world's best players.
[36:07] I think they do. I think they've hit their peak
[36:09] last season and I think one of them will be will be a very
[36:13] solid. We will look back and say one of
[36:14] them will be a very solid buy and I'd be more looking towards
[36:18] Cunya for that, but I know one of the two will be a flop.
[36:21] But I look at this Manchester United trio right now and you
[36:24] remember the and Cunya and I look at it as one of the best in
[36:27] the league. Obviously we'll see.
[36:29] But like the player names is is a good front three.
[36:32] You can't the player. Names.
[36:34] Because. When they were all the own.
[36:35] When they were all the stars of their respective teams.
[36:38] I understand, but you assembled. That way I'm saying that they're
[36:42] playing on a much better team this year and don't give me this
[36:45] Man United 15 bullshit bro they're playing with each other
[36:48] this season. They're all like.
[36:50] I'm not saying they're going to score 20/20/20, only idiots
[36:53] think that, but what? Sample Do you have to base off
[36:55] of that? Manchester United is a healthy
[36:57] place for a player to grow. That's another it's a dumpster
[36:59] fire, everything but. You have rather have once again,
[37:03] every year is. Different.
[37:04] That's true. So you can you can argue that
[37:06] that's a solid argument, but don't give me this bullshit of
[37:09] like, I'm not expecting Cuna to come in and score 20.
[37:12] I'm not expecting and Bueno to come in and score 20.
[37:15] Like that's not the expectations.
[37:16] You're trying to set expectations where you can go in
[37:18] after after half a season when and Buenos on five goals and be
[37:21] like, guys, I told you he wasn't gonna follow that up.
[37:24] I told like, I'm not I'm he's not gonna score 20.
[37:27] So you spent 80 million on a guy?
[37:28] He's. Setting it up.
[37:30] He's setting himself up for the alley.
[37:32] You pop up for the year, you see guys, I told you, you guys
[37:36] shouldn't have bought. Him stats.
[37:38] Bro, that's just the play. That's don't care about your
[37:40] feelings, whatever. But I don't give a fuck about
[37:42] your stupid stats. Like it's actually so stupid.
[37:45] Erasurated by stats. Because you have to understand.
[37:47] Numbers. We didn't buy him When will to
[37:49] score 20? If he scores 20, amazing.
[37:51] Spend. How much did you spend on him?
[37:52] 70 mil. How much did Chelsea buy fucking
[37:55] gittins and jiao Pedro? Jiao Pedro scored five non Penn
[37:57] goals. You're not fucking speaking a
[37:58] word about that bullshit. And what did you give I?
[38:00] Actually think right now and bueno and Cunha.
[38:03] We got ridiculous value for that.
[38:05] We got ridiculous value. You paid, you paid the right.
[38:07] Million so but Cunha, we spent 60 million OK, if you want to go
[38:10] buy let's say Anthony Gordon, are you going to get him for 60
[38:13] million No, you're not then you didn't get anywhere near the
[38:15] production I'd. Rather 1 Anthony Gordon, you're
[38:17] a fucking idiot. I'd rather.
[38:19] Give a fuck. One Anthony Gordon, 100.
[38:21] Mil plus 100 mil. Yes, you'd rather Anthony Gordon
[38:23] for 100 mil. Over spending Kuya and Wemble
[38:26] for 170 milligrams. Bridge Bay used to be
[38:28] believable. Yeah, it's bro.
[38:31] I would personally rather Anthony Gordon.
[38:33] Why you? How much you sell?
[38:34] How much? You don't know.
[38:36] You don't know what a good player looks like if it was
[38:38] staring you right in the face. I do.
[38:39] It's Ken and Yieldies and he's he's strikingly handsome.
[38:42] So if I spent, let's just say right now you said yield these
[38:46] 80 million, I would fucking run and get Cunya 9000 times out of
[38:51] 100. Ken and yield is not for sale.
[38:53] I don't give no one wants him even that, not like you can
[38:56] given the contract. Extension imminent.
[38:58] The context says that Kunya has performed in the Premier League
[39:00] in the past, so yeah. In the same exact formation.
[39:03] Last year? Yeah.
[39:04] Last season, 1 season. Ohh but it's not about goals and
[39:06] assists guys. Kuja was playing well for years
[39:09] and years and years, but once again.
[39:10] What did I get him? A rotation spot for wolves.
[39:12] You don't follow rotation. He was the star player.
[39:15] I think the transfers are like, I think we've always criticized
[39:18] transfers outside the Prem as either project transfers or just
[39:22] like not seen to the same standard.
[39:24] You're getting players with Premier League experience.
[39:26] I do think like Manchester United have done, like have
[39:29] checked most of the boxes price. You could debate all you like,
[39:33] all we want on if it's worth it. Not worth.
[39:35] I won't harp on prices 'cause they're fucking Premier League
[39:37] team, they have the money, so whatever.
[39:39] I won't harp on the price. Yeah, I'm just talking about the
[39:42] player fits and what you could have gotten.
[39:43] Player fits Cunia played the exact same formation in the
[39:45] exact same league in the and he's gonna play the exact same
[39:47] position if if it was multiple years, it was a one.
[39:50] Or the other with that money getting getting a Mateta, a
[39:55] solid, a solid Premier League proven center.
[39:58] Mateta is literally literally Mateta is.
[40:02] Mateta is an amazing player. I like Mateta but he's literally
[40:06] 1 1/2 year merchant. He's only played well for 1/2.
[40:09] What's different? Mateta was considered for the
[40:11] first year and something at Crystal Palace.
[40:13] He was considered one of their biggest transfer flops in their
[40:15] club's history. But what differentiates him from
[40:18] him? One more Cunha stats wise.
[40:19] Because and Bueno and Cunha were literally. 16 goals, two seasons
[40:22] going to Premier League. That's why I said 1 1/2.
[40:24] He turned it on the second-half of the season that year, but
[40:27] check still. Has two successful season the
[40:28] Premier League he has. 1 1/2 successful seasons, but
[40:32] whatever. All these players are good.
[40:33] I don't know what you guys are arguing.
[40:34] But I I would buy Mateta in a second also.
[40:37] Yeah, we we tried this gimmick of we bought Castamero for 70
[40:40] million. What you're gonna come on, tell
[40:41] me Castamero, what he did at Real Madrid was not sustainable.
[40:44] He played for a decade literally at the top level Champions
[40:47] League, dominating every single. Game predict the Castamero
[40:49] downfall. I won't take credit for that
[40:50] one. I didn't predict that. 1 So we
[40:52] we bought the players that you're telling us to go for.
[40:55] They fucking suck Dick. No, I'm not.
[40:57] I'm not saying to go for Casamiro.
[40:59] So what do you what players can Man United buy where you'll say
[41:02] that's a good transfer and Boppe like, none?
[41:04] I told you, I said one of these two guys will turn out to be a
[41:06] very good player for you. Why did you get 2 of the exact
[41:10] same type of risks? And I'm there's no.
[41:14] Diversify, this is for literally the least amount the risk you
[41:16] purchase with players. It's like you had all this money
[41:18] and you bought 2 stocks in fucking Taiwanese tech company.
[41:22] But once again. If Taiwan goes under, you're
[41:24] cooked. So you're saying if the Premier
[41:26] League, if the league that we play in, if they fraudulently
[41:30] played well in the league that we play in well?
[41:33] Let me track this. If we if they fraudulently
[41:37] played in the league that we play in independently fraudulent
[41:40] and they weren't in the same team either, like like we're
[41:42] buying like two players from different environments.
[41:46] They're coming in playing the same exact formation.
[41:48] Well and bueno, a bit different, but Kunj is playing the exact
[41:52] same formation. It doesn't make sense.
[41:54] Like this is the least risk associated possible to a
[41:57] transfer. Also, if you're over performing
[42:00] your XG, doesn't that make you a baller?
[42:02] Because if you're consistently. No, but if you're.
[42:04] Consistently. Overperformed a ridiculous
[42:08] amount. I'm not expecting you to
[42:09] overperform a ridiculous amount. But overperforming it would mean
[42:12] that you're getting, you're scoring, yeah, you're finishing
[42:17] good. Or your formation is like your
[42:22] manager, you have a good manager and he's finally putting you in
[42:24] the right position that gets the best finish out of you.
[42:27] Yeah, like for headers, like next season, let's say a Farteta
[42:30] would always get Yokesh in header position.
[42:32] He would never, he would underperform his.
[42:34] He would severely underperform she in the air.
[42:36] I think you took 17 headers last season and scored zero of them.
[42:40] So like if your manager is putting you in header positions,
[42:42] which I hope Arteta's not doing that stupid cross and it's on
[42:45] your. Manager as.
[42:46] Well then it's on your manager. But if you put Jokadesh with the
[42:48] ball facing the net, yeah he will over perform Mateta and XG
[42:52] let's say cuz he's just a better finisher around these.
[42:54] A fox in the box, as MVP would say.
[42:57] All right, I'm I'm all for a bit more man U talking but I know
[43:00] the the listeners right now are probably like it's interesting.
[43:03] Shut the fuck up please. Right now they're probably
[43:05] screaming at the the screens, but I saw an interesting report
[43:10] that supposedly the Premier League might be looking into
[43:12] launching its own streaming services worldwide.
[43:15] So I thought it was pretty interesting.
[43:17] It would cost £10 a month, which is what in Canadian, I think 17
[43:20] a month, which in my personal opinion I think is, look, in
[43:25] Canada we're kind of blessed. Fubo gives us for $19.00 a month
[43:28] or $20. A month.
[43:29] I don't think about $350.00 a year.
[43:31] Yeah, thank you for that. No, blessed it's.
[43:33] But I get to watch. Blessed you get to watch all
[43:35] under one bare knuckleball. You get to watch Cydia and the
[43:38] Premier League. Yeah, but then you got to get
[43:39] the zone for Champions League and yeah.
[43:41] But the Premier League's not gonna offer that, so it doesn't
[43:44] really matter for them. I'm pretty sure people in the
[43:46] UK, I'm not sure about the USI think the US is more expensive
[43:48] than us, but I'm pretty sure people in the UK actually pay
[43:52] like way more than we do for football.
[43:55] So for them it costs, it cuts so much.
[43:57] They have to buy. They have to buy like TNT.
[44:00] That's about. TNT Yeah, you have to buy what
[44:03] watch CL on. It's on TNT actually.
[44:06] But ABS. Sky Sports CBS No.
[44:09] That's in US. But I thought they were there in
[44:11] US. But I.
[44:12] Think they start to get the zone too, like the zone is still an
[44:14] option like if you want to watch every league, if you're an avid
[44:16] football enjoyer. I think for this like we, we
[44:19] spoke about it before, but. Then we get league are in Canada
[44:21] on football also, by the way. Yeah.
[44:22] So the one thing I would say is that like if you're strictly
[44:25] just a Prem watcher, this makes more sense.
[44:29] But I do think that the pool of Prem watchers solely is less
[44:33] than people that generally want to watch Prem, Champions League
[44:37] and. Different.
[44:38] I'm also more happy as a consumer that I'm sending the
[44:43] like the 10. The 10 lbs that I'm sending goes
[44:46] directly to my team. Not to my team, but it goes
[44:49] directly to the league. There's no middle man like Fubo
[44:52] involved anymore. That's probably going to take
[44:54] most of the money and then my my team just gets a small.
[44:57] TV rights deal. Yeah.
[44:59] But it's, I think the problem why they don't do that is
[45:02] because TV rights deals guarantee them money and it's
[45:05] not reliant on for, for, for other leagues, I would agree For
[45:09] other leagues, it's not worth it because like like Seria, if
[45:13] you're going to assume that Seria is going to be like
[45:15] downward trajectory in terms of viewership in any place, then
[45:18] you want guaranteed TV rights deals as opposed to a membership
[45:22] service that if somebody no longer wants to watch that,
[45:24] yeah, they'll just cancel their membership.
[45:25] But as it's it's I don't know, I want to see how the payments
[45:30] work also for this, because if you're a club, it's actually
[45:34] helps getting monthly money in instead of one time payment at
[45:37] the beginning of summer. Here you go it.
[45:38] Depends if the the Premier League distributes it annually.
[45:41] If they're going to be, yeah. That's like it depends how they
[45:42] distribute it clubs. I don't think clubs would like
[45:45] this. They distribute it per per per
[45:48] per game. I'm pretty sure it's it's not
[45:50] because I, I remember seeing Setia's statistics like everyone
[45:53] has a different number. Yeah, the different.
[45:55] Revenue share, you know well it should be based on your
[45:57] viewership. No.
[45:58] Well, the premise based on, it's based on where you finish in the
[46:01] league. Really.
[46:02] Yeah, like F1. It's based.
[46:04] If you finish here, you get this amount of money.
[46:06] There's competition prize, yeah. It's different.
[46:08] Setia's different. It's not the same.
[46:10] But I just thought it was. But that incentivizes
[46:12] competition. Yeah, as opposed to.
[46:15] And then I want to see if other other leagues start doing this
[46:17] also. Like what?
[46:19] I don't want to turn it into. I agree.
[46:21] We spoke about on the podcast, I think last winter that the
[46:24] Champions League should have their own streaming service.
[46:26] It's enough being here, there and anywhere.
[46:28] Yeah. Or.
[46:29] Just put it on UEFA. UEFA have their own streaming
[46:31] service and you have Europa League, Conference League,
[46:34] Champions League. Youth League, like I would even
[46:35] be able to tune into younger like like the U21 Italy team,
[46:38] let's say like you want to watch them in the UEFA, whatever EUR
[46:41] or whatever EUR, Yeah. Like like in my personal
[46:44] opinion, what the you guys can disagree.
[46:47] I think the perfect way is what YouTube does.
[46:49] Like it's free if you want it there.
[46:52] So if you want, you can watch for free.
[46:54] There's going to be ads that pop up during the game.
[46:56] If like whatever's happening, it's going to pop up.
[46:59] But if you pay, let's say YouTube premium every month, you
[47:02] don't get ads. I think that's the best for in
[47:04] terms of like, oh, you're trying to grow your league and make
[47:07] money at the same time. Yeah, to make it as easily
[47:09] accessible as possible. Also, this is kind of on topic
[47:12] but a little bit different. I wanted to bring it up a
[47:15] YouTube Nick run the phone market Nick RTFM.
[47:18] Recently he streamed the what cup?
[47:20] What was it called? The Portuguese?
[47:22] Yeah, legal. Like tacos taca.
[47:26] I got the Taca de Portugal. Taca de Portugal.
[47:28] I thought it was called the Super Cup.
[47:30] It might be the beginning season.
[47:31] Yeah, might be. Anyway, he streamed the final.
[47:34] He streamed the final with Benfica and Sporting and
[47:37] Sporting and a lot of people and he was he posted it on Twitter
[47:42] and he was talking about how it was like one of the greatest
[47:43] things that he's had the pleasure of working on.
[47:46] And So what it was, it was a live stream where he had the
[47:48] game on one part of the screen and him on the other part almost
[47:50] as the announcer slash just like live commentator with the
[47:53] comments and like I was thinking for the future of football.
[47:56] Is there any place for that where getting influencers and
[48:00] streamers to watch the games live?
[48:03] You can tune into their live streams to watch the games as
[48:06] well as talk to someone. And cuz I feel like we're moving
[48:09] further and further away from straight up commentators.
[48:12] Show commentary. It would need to be for Monday
[48:17] Night Football. The Manning cast does Monday
[48:21] Night Football even in hockey, like spin Chiclets does like
[48:24] certain games, Yeah, for hockey, it's like it's it is on the the
[48:29] TV, though, that's the thing. It's not on like.
[48:32] So watch. The issue is that I don't think
[48:33] that the Premier League, let's say they got us to do a game.
[48:36] Let's say they want us to do Brentford and versus Brighton.
[48:39] They're not collecting any revenue.
[48:41] But I don't see this, I don't see this benefiting the Premier
[48:44] League. I see this benefiting.
[48:45] It does benefit the Premier League because it is visibility.
[48:48] True, but they don't. Need our visibility?
[48:49] They don't need our visibility. But I'm saying like, let's say
[48:52] Seria that wants to tap into North American markets, you go
[48:56] get people like box to box to do this.
[48:58] Yeah. And people that let's say we
[49:00] have a Barsa fan watching us that doesn't tap into Seria
[49:02] games but loves to watch our content, sees we're live
[49:05] streaming a game, clicks on it and.
[49:06] Watch that Richard Rios master class that was dropped.
[49:09] He's actually able to watch the SETI game while watching Box A.
[49:12] Box just talked shit. It gives an opportunity of other
[49:15] league watchers to watch it with us.
[49:17] Exactly, and I'm sure that that Nick RTFM stream did super well
[49:20] and got people that would have never, ever watched that game to
[49:23] watch, to watch that game and say, Oh shit, Richard Rios,
[49:25] that's crazy. You know, like there's some
[49:26] other Ballers, like maybe they if they have Portuguese, if
[49:29] they're Portuguese and they're like, oh shit, maybe I should
[49:31] start supporting my my nation. Yeah, it's definitely the
[49:33] future. I would even say like you're
[49:35] able to watch the game on directly from his stream, So
[49:38] it's like you didn't even need to like look for a service or
[49:41] something to get that game on, you know what I mean?
[49:43] Yeah, which made it extremely accessible and you lower that
[49:46] barrier to entry. I think anyone's going to give
[49:49] something a chance. So like, let's say like, well, I
[49:52] mean, we saw it with our with our streams when we did like the
[49:55] final, like Seria match day and like the prime match, like the
[49:58] final day, like people that don't necessarily watch Seria,
[50:01] they're like, OK, well, I'm tuning in because you guys are
[50:03] tuning in, you know what I mean? So it's they get.
[50:05] Involved, then they then they turn on notifications and maybe
[50:09] they start watching Napoli next season because Varvar talks
[50:12] about them so much yeah, some shit like that.
[50:13] Like there's a there's a genuine benefit for these leagues that
[50:16] are either there on the way down or trying to stop their descent
[50:19] to get into the next generation Rd. streamers and shit that is
[50:22] that is taking over social. Media and I think over the
[50:25] country, unfortunately. Jinxi revived an entire fucking
[50:29] mobile game just by himself. Go ahead, because now I'm
[50:31] playing Clash Royale. I'm.
[50:32] Playing Clash Royale. Producer T, as we were started
[50:35] recording was in a Clash Royale game.
[50:37] He Producer T, were you playing this for months or just recently
[50:41] started playing? Yeah, recently the the guy
[50:45] single handedly revived an entire game.
[50:47] I saw that. I'm not sure.
[50:49] I think, I think Clash route was making them $15 million a month
[50:54] a couple months ago and now I think it's about $50,000,000 a
[50:56] month now. Busy work, so and that's a game
[50:58] that came out over a decade ago. Yeah, not yet, because we don't
[51:01] have the 10 year. We don't.
[51:02] Have the nine year badge. We all have the nine year.
[51:04] We don't have the 10 year badges yet, so it's coming.
[51:06] But yeah, I know. But I do think that's the next.
[51:09] Even off of football like the Mr. Beast bro, this team water,
[51:12] this whole team water a fundraiser.
[51:14] But if you have people that from their houses are able to start
[51:17] making YouTube videos and getting them to the point where
[51:19] they can generate millions and millions of dollars for
[51:22] anything. So like League should be using
[51:25] that. Forget this old style marketing.
[51:26] I think I think there may be a balance because like I think for
[51:30] me it gets to a certain point where it's like, OK, like I do
[51:33] want a more in depth view. I do want more static, more
[51:36] traditional way. But then like there's also
[51:38] moments where I do want like a more light hearted, a more like,
[51:41] yeah, more more streamer based type of commentary.
[51:45] So I think, I think if you could find a balance, yeah.
[51:47] But it's. Great football commentary on
[51:49] Setia making you happy, no? Like I do think that should be a
[51:52] lot better. Italian.
[51:53] Yeah, I do think it's Italian. Italian 10 times better than the
[51:56] English one. Yeah, I agree.
[51:57] I think if you give the option, I think definitely, definitely
[51:59] becomes. So that being or like on Fubo,
[52:02] one of the options is watching it, watching it with let's say
[52:05] it's an entertainment with it's a Fubo and one of them is like
[52:08] watching it with the like AFTV commentate yeah, So like having
[52:13] that third option yeah, like English, Italian and.
[52:15] Then teams do it. Teams do their own commentary
[52:17] like if it's like introverted. Yeah, but they can't show the
[52:19] game. Yeah, they can't show the game,
[52:20] but they have their own commentary.
[52:22] I'm saying Fubo hired. Yeah, it'd be cool.
[52:24] This influencer to give the option of commentating on this
[52:27] game, Yeah. Exactly like we see Kingsley,
[52:29] Kingsley Guy. Yeah, that was great too.
[52:31] Like those are all influencer based.
[52:34] Within the next five years, my prediction is you will see, you
[52:36] will see like people like box to box being more involved.
[52:40] In this, But I mean, you see, you see speed when he was on
[52:42] TNT, that was probably one of the most watched.
[52:45] Not TNT. Yeah.
[52:47] Yes. He was one that was the the
[52:49] clips that came from that got hundreds of millions of views.
[52:52] Yeah, of course, the clip. Culture.
[52:54] Him trying to pronounce character.
[52:57] I don't remember what he even said.
[52:58] Yeah. I don't remember.
[52:59] But it was it was hilarious. And even, like, just Olympics to
[53:02] Snoop Dogg and Kevin Hart, Like, people look forward to that.
[53:04] Yeah, we'll remember. That that was cool.
[53:06] You know I misremembered. That's what that's what it is.
[53:09] It's the future. We shall see what the future
[53:11] holds. Yes, but first transfers, it's
[53:13] still the transfer season. Transfer season is hot and what
[53:17] isn't so hot is Joshari to Milan and Lukman to Inter, both both
[53:23] stalling as Millie said in the intro.
[53:25] Yeah, unfortunately these are two, two players that would like
[53:30] to be like to be playing for these Milan clubs.
[53:32] But I think I'll. I'll it's not up to them.
[53:35] Yeah. Sadly, it's not up to them and
[53:37] there's a lot of bickering behind.
[53:38] It so let them know. Yes, I'll let.
[53:40] I'll let them start with Shari. And like these are really like
[53:43] to the average person like these are really two non important
[53:47] things. Like, yeah, I know.
[53:49] But but we'll connect it afterwards after they say what
[53:51] it is. What's the current state of the
[53:52] Jasari deal? Jasari wants to join Milan, so
[53:55] Jasari plays for Club Bruges. We'll put it at that because I
[53:58] don't think he's as known as Lukman, but he plays at Club
[54:00] Bruges, He's a very important player for them and he wants to
[54:03] come to Milan. Milan.
[54:05] Last year from Luzerne I think for like 4 million or some shit.
[54:08] No, he's in a midfielder. What?
[54:10] He joined last. Year yeah, yeah, he just joined
[54:13] a. Five year contract.
[54:14] Is this important to what's happening?
[54:16] To his what? Yes.
[54:17] For him, because now he has four years left on his.
[54:18] Contract, OK, sure. Just the team where he came from
[54:21] is not that important, but it's the fact that he has four years
[54:23] left on his. Contract played in the Academy
[54:25] at a young boy, Luzerne Luzerne. Four years left in his contract.
[54:29] He wants to leave Club Brugge now.
[54:30] Club Brugge is not accepting any offers under 35 Milan has.
[54:36] Do I be biased or do I actually say what's happening?
[54:39] So what's? Happening keep keep it as
[54:40] objective as possible. Milan has offered that.
[54:43] Jashari wants to go to Milan, so we have the leverage.
[54:46] Of the bias, he still gave the. Bias Milan did offer that, no
[54:49] you. Didn't give 35, you gave 30 + 5.
[54:51] It's no 33 + 1 and a. 32.5 + 3. Crazy 33.5 plus whatever the
[55:00] fuck anyways that the the transfer fee that Club Bruce
[55:04] wanted has been reached by Milan.
[55:06] It hasn't. It has.
[55:07] No, it's a guaranteed payment. It's a guaranteed payment.
[55:10] 353333.5 Fish. So you haven't.
[55:14] You haven't. You haven't broke the record.
[55:16] The thing is that it's up to interpretation.
[55:18] What they believe is the the fee that they want 'cause they just
[55:21] said 35 Milan has offered up. Based on you guys making.
[55:24] Yeah, we're not going to get into this.
[55:25] Yeah. Anyway, what what is the the
[55:26] take away from that? Is that Club Bruges is being
[55:28] hard headed in negotiations with Milan.
[55:30] Yes, and they're firm on their price.
[55:32] Yes. And Milan is being cheap.
[55:34] Jashari is being leveraged by Milan because Milan wants to
[55:37] spend less. OK.
[55:38] And now, now Adam Olukman. Yeah.
[55:41] So Adam Olukman. Yeah, go for it.
[55:42] African player of the year? Yep.
[55:45] We're not. We're not hyping up players
[55:46] before we start telling you. About them African Player of the
[55:48] Year. We have multiple clips of you in
[55:50] the Balandor ranking saying what the fuck is Lukman?
[55:52] Doing I agree, because he only got on there for the fine hat
[55:55] trick in the fine Europe league final.
[55:56] Anyways, top player in SETI out. Let's just I'll leave it at that
[55:59] top ten. Top ten player in SETI up.
[56:02] He's one of. One of the and was promised last
[56:05] year that he would be getting a transfer out of Atlanta.
[56:08] It was a gentleman's agreement. They said that if an offer of 40
[56:11] million came, you would go he. Said non Italian teams add that
[56:15] in there. Yeah, from non Italian teams.
[56:17] He forgot that. No, no, but but this is.
[56:19] This one of $40 million from Let.
[56:22] Me finish, let me finish, let me finish.
[56:24] So the agents end up going and saying OK, offer for 40 million,
[56:28] that means he's out. So next summer comes along,
[56:31] Inter says OK, well we'll offer 35 + 5 or whatever, yeah,
[56:36] whatever. And then Atlanta reject
[56:39] whatever. I don't think they were.
[56:40] I don't think they even answered.
[56:41] They didn't even answer. So then the agent said OK, but
[56:44] if you offer 40 he's out because they they agreed that 40 million
[56:48] he's out. So he said OK, we'll offer 40.
[56:50] Then Athlon says no, that's 40 million for outside of SETI.
[56:54] We want 50 mil. For for inside of SETI transfer,
[56:57] we need 50 bones upfront. They want 50 bones and says OK,
[57:02] well we don't want them, we don't want to do that.
[57:04] So we'll offer 42 + 3 that ends up being 45.
[57:10] No, you guys have to stop. What do you mean?
[57:12] Because right? No, called they're they're it's
[57:15] called an add on then. It would say but.
[57:17] Yes, the add-ons get to that. If if let's say there's 3
[57:21] million and there's a 50% chance of it happening, that's 42.5.
[57:26] We don't revise. I'll revise 42,000,000.
[57:28] They have 42,000,000 plus the bonuses.
[57:31] And advance says no, we don't want.
[57:33] But then Lookman says, OK, but you promised that I would have a
[57:36] transfer if a reasonable offer came in.
[57:39] I've done it. I've done all I can for this
[57:41] club. I want to be out.
[57:42] They say no. He ends up deleting every single
[57:45] post of Atlanta on his Instagram, changes his profile,
[57:48] then puts out a transfer request.
[57:51] And he says, I, I was promised that I would leave.
[57:53] I want to leave. So Cat, does Atlanta have to
[57:57] then say, OK, we will succumb to your demands?
[58:00] But what's the common thing that now Atlanta, what came out of
[58:03] that? You say that Atlanta is hard
[58:05] headed and and they're being strict in negotiations, whether
[58:09] it's because they're dealing with Inter, yeah, and there's
[58:12] history or whatever. But what I wanted to connect
[58:16] from both of those and what question arises is should these
[58:19] smaller clubs be hard headed towards bigger clubs or should
[58:22] they just give in? I I think that there there's a
[58:26] mix to it. I do think that the Jashari 1 is
[58:29] petty. Petty on Milan's side.
[58:31] It's the same exact situation. It's even worse on your side
[58:34] because he's selling to a direct rival in my situation.
[58:38] But. If OK, I'll go.
[58:39] In my situation, Club Bruges has no stakes with Milan.
[58:41] The only reason why they're being hard headed is because
[58:44] they could go to the Prem and get more money.
[58:45] Jashari doesn't want to go to the Prem.
[58:46] It's not that he has rejected. The Prem, they do not need the
[58:49] money. They just sold the Koiper for
[58:50] like 14 or 20 well whatever between 14 and 20 million to the
[58:55] Prem that's a lot of money for Club Bruges.
[58:57] They don't need the money right now and they you want to keep
[59:00] Jashari. He has four years left on his
[59:02] contract. Why do they need to sell them to
[59:05] you? Like why do they need to sell
[59:07] them to you? Because in my opinion, right
[59:08] now, he, he, Milan has the leverage because Jashari clearly
[59:12] has not shown up the training, He has not shown up the
[59:15] training, he has not shown up to the game.
[59:16] So once again if I'm club Rouge, I tell him you could not show up
[59:20] the training for the next 4 years.
[59:22] Throw your career away. Go.
[59:25] But you're not going to do it. But I'm all lost in the.
[59:27] Club Bruges has all the leverage.
[59:29] No because Club Bruges you're taking away from the fact that
[59:32] Club Rouge is. If that happens the player goes
[59:34] to shit. Good luck.
[59:35] You shot on your you shit in your career.
[59:37] He's not going to do it, but OK, but.
[59:39] That means Club Bruges just lost out on a potential 30 something.
[59:42] For two mil. He's not going to.
[59:45] He's not going to sit out. I agree.
[59:47] I I think it's on both sides, but I I believe in negotiating.
[59:51] You need to find a common ground.
[59:52] It's not my way or the highway. But for instance, if I if you,
[59:55] if you come up to me and say I want your iPhone, yeah, but I
[59:59] don't want to sell my iPhone. But you shoot me a price 2000,
[1:00:03] OK, 1800. But I don't want to sell it, so
[1:00:07] I'll take I want 2000. But you're I have your phone.
[1:00:10] No, you don't. I have your phone.
[1:00:11] No, you don't. No you don't.
[1:00:13] The phone. The phone is legally
[1:00:15] transferred. Because because the phone.
[1:00:16] The phone doesn't. The phone has no, the phone has
[1:00:19] no rights. Yeah, that's.
[1:00:20] OK, No, it's better. This is a better situation.
[1:00:22] I have a dog. OK, and a dog and give me No,
[1:00:25] no, I don't want to sell my. Dog, but it's it is bad to say,
[1:00:28] but Loki in this situation, players don't have rights really
[1:00:30] like in this situation. There needs to be a balance.
[1:00:32] There's there's three players. Who want to be in there's?
[1:00:34] Actually, four parties. He has rights, he's getting paid
[1:00:36] for the next 4. Years.
[1:00:37] But there's four parties involved in the agreement.
[1:00:39] There's the two clubs, the agent and the player.
[1:00:41] No, the player and agent don't really matter.
[1:00:43] The player wants to go to Milan. The agents are happy with the
[1:00:46] offer that Milan has made it that.
[1:00:47] Doesn't really matter in this situation.
[1:00:50] It does because the players. Tend to decide where their
[1:00:53] career goes yes. You could talk about player
[1:00:55] agents having too much sell them if the team decides that it's
[1:00:58] okay to sell them, yes. Like Ambemo forced his way to
[1:01:01] Man United and rejected other proposals, but we still ended up
[1:01:04] paying. Yeah, we paid, but this?
[1:01:07] Is what I was saying to the question about smaller clubs,
[1:01:09] like bending for bigger clubs. The people that don't have
[1:01:13] problems negotiating with small clubs are the clubs that just
[1:01:15] pay the money, Chelsea, Manchester United.
[1:01:18] The Premier League clubs. All the Premier League clubs
[1:01:20] basically even within themselves, Brentford weren't
[1:01:23] definitely, they probably weren't keen on selling in bemo,
[1:01:25] but if the right offer came in and Manchester United said
[1:01:27] what's the offer, we'll give it and boom, they got them.
[1:01:31] That's how it works in the Premier League.
[1:01:32] And for a, for a club like Milan to be nickel and diming over
[1:01:36] 1,000,000, 1/2, I think in the long run, if you guys really are
[1:01:40] positive on this player, it's worth bending it for a million
[1:01:43] and a half. I agree to an extent because if
[1:01:46] you keep doing that, then you come into situations like
[1:01:48] Manchester United who overspend on players.
[1:01:50] True, because they know they have the money and they know
[1:01:53] they're always gonna pay out. Under past ownership.
[1:01:55] But no, you get bent. You will but but you.
[1:01:58] I don't think right now we've gotten Bento other than Ugarte,
[1:02:01] which was like they fucking yeah, they they jammed like 12
[1:02:05] inches up there. But like, other than Ugarte, we
[1:02:08] really haven't. I'm so 69 by.
[1:02:09] The way we haven't really been really fucked under this news.
[1:02:14] We got we got Max rally for what 15 mil?
[1:02:16] We got the lick for like 35 mil. But all the undesired.
[1:02:19] Yeah, and then Bueno, I think are still once again, you can
[1:02:21] disagree. I think those are good prices.
[1:02:23] Like I don't think we really. How much is Dorgu?
[1:02:26] Dorgu was 30 mil. Yeah, that's a penalty price.
[1:02:29] He looks worth it, but I'm just saying that he's a penalty price
[1:02:31] 30. He looks like 1/3.
[1:02:33] Player from Lichet like nobody. Nobody was after him.
[1:02:35] It was a club record set. And DOI Premier League price and
[1:02:39] though it was a Premier League. Price.
[1:02:40] Yeah, that one, that one they got.
[1:02:41] Fucked over coyote? No coyote was like 12 mil.
[1:02:43] Coyote was cheap, right? But they just sold the Langa for
[1:02:46] 60 something million or 55,000,000.
[1:02:48] I'm just saying Prem team, they're creating a new they're
[1:02:50] creating a new floor for for what transfer should be going
[1:02:54] for. It doesn't.
[1:02:54] Which other leagues? Other leagues cannot compete
[1:02:57] with those prices. Yeah, but for a mil and 1/2 or
[1:03:00] for three mil or whatever it was in your case?
[1:03:03] If you really need the player, just do it.
[1:03:05] And in your situation, it's worse because I feel like
[1:03:07] Atlanta actually negotiated down to 45.
[1:03:09] They did it well. Now I think from what I've seen
[1:03:12] like the most recent on on X is that inters will like
[1:03:15] considering going 45 fixed and I do think if it's 45 fixed and
[1:03:20] Atlanta still rejected, you look for something.
[1:03:22] Else but the issue the issue. You do not cave in.
[1:03:26] The issue is the optics because if if you had just heard, oh
[1:03:30] Adamola lookman's available for 45,000,000, we pay 45,000,000
[1:03:33] and you never heard about this 40 mil or 35 mil, I agree.
[1:03:36] You would have said oh OK, that's an amazing deal.
[1:03:39] But now because you offered 35 and they rejected and stuff, now
[1:03:42] you're looking at 45. Is this oh, is that a good deal
[1:03:44] or not? It is a good deal.
[1:03:45] Just fucking pay. It but but I think I think for
[1:03:48] the lookman situation, it was a little bit of a like confusion
[1:03:51] because it was agents telling inter saying offer for 40 mil
[1:03:54] and you're good like they'll make the sale.
[1:03:56] So they made an offer for 40 mil and they're not allowed to come
[1:03:58] out and say actually no. So the.
[1:03:59] Issue is the agent. Sure, the issue is the agent,
[1:04:02] but then. You're putting in dozens of
[1:04:04] millions of EUR bid because an agent told you that's also a
[1:04:08] problem. Well, no, the agent lied.
[1:04:10] The agent lied to enter if he said that was the actual.
[1:04:12] Why? Who's this agent that he knows
[1:04:14] more than than Atlanta? But Atlanta, they negotiated the
[1:04:17] contract for Italian teams. Yeah.
[1:04:19] So I don't, I don't. I think it's just very messy and
[1:04:22] I think the. Actual or the?
[1:04:23] Gentleman No, there's no It's a gentlemen's agreement.
[1:04:26] OK, but gentlemen's, Yeah, the sagas.
[1:04:27] Dragged on in my opinion. Like both.
[1:04:29] These are 100%. Where both Inter and and Neilan
[1:04:32] could have just offered respectable baseline deals, like
[1:04:36] respectable deals. I could have started more
[1:04:38] positive negotiations. And then if it was more
[1:04:40] positive, I'm sure Club Brugge would have would have been able
[1:04:43] to say, you know what, we'll compromise because the process
[1:04:45] has been easy. Yeah, it's all about the you're
[1:04:47] giving half a mil, half a, like you're pissing them off.
[1:04:50] No, but I'm. Gonna say I I don't want to give
[1:04:51] you. I think what pissed them off
[1:04:53] mostly is we both went around the clubs and just went straight
[1:04:57] to the player, which is a common tactic in in football transfers.
[1:05:00] Yeah, we go directly to the player.
[1:05:01] You you build leverage. Yeah, you build leverage.
[1:05:03] Different going directly to a player agreeing personal term is
[1:05:06] a year left. There's a difference between
[1:05:08] that and telling the player yeah, skip training and forced
[1:05:11] the move and drag the. Your value down.
[1:05:12] Maybe it's agents doing that. But that's that's his agents,
[1:05:15] yeah, but that's there. Let's just say there's a
[1:05:17] personal agreement both with look man at Inter and Jashari.
[1:05:20] Yeah, there is. So both clubs have went behind
[1:05:23] Atlanta and club, Brujan said. There's a way of.
[1:05:25] Going about it like Man United with Embuemo, we agreed personal
[1:05:28] terms with Embuemo months before we agreed the fee, but he still
[1:05:31] showed up to preseason training and shit like that.
[1:05:33] Like he didn't skip preseason. Start posting on his Instagram.
[1:05:36] They won't let me out. Oh my God, fuck this club, fuck
[1:05:39] this city and shit that's not there's ways about doing it.
[1:05:41] That's. No, being the professional way
[1:05:43] of doing. It the way he's doing it will
[1:05:45] lead to paying full price, you know what I mean?
[1:05:47] Like I think, I think for Lookman, he said I've done
[1:05:50] already enough for this club. You promised that I would get a
[1:05:51] transfer for respect. But that was before Roteggi got
[1:05:54] sold for 60 million. But that shouldn't change an
[1:05:56] agreement. Why?
[1:05:57] So you have an agreement with some with a contractor and the
[1:06:00] contractor says actually no, I already I already did what I
[1:06:02] needed to do, I don't need to do.
[1:06:03] The club already knows the club. The club policy is they only
[1:06:06] sell one player per summer like big player.
[1:06:08] But that shouldn't apply to something that has has been
[1:06:11] agreed 4 Do you get what I mean? Like you're not going to break
[1:06:15] an agreement because. First of all, he's not breaking
[1:06:17] the agreement because he said 40 mil is for teams outside of
[1:06:19] Italy. I'm sure if Athletico Madrid
[1:06:21] came and offered 40 mil they would have accepted.
[1:06:23] So once again, he's. Not he has.
[1:06:25] They're not. Breaking any agreement.
[1:06:26] But he has rejected. So he's trying to force his way
[1:06:28] to enter. Sure.
[1:06:30] So don't be pissed when you stay at Atlanta.
[1:06:33] Well, no, he's he's playing a lottery.
[1:06:35] But what's what's happening? What's happening is just both
[1:06:38] teams are being stubborn and and they're they're negotiating in
[1:06:40] their own way, but without the interest of the other club.
[1:06:43] I just said both teams are being stubborn.
[1:06:45] What about the clubs? The club that's selling POV?
[1:06:48] They're being stubborn. Milans being stubborn, but the
[1:06:50] Milan is relying on the leverage that they have on Joshari to
[1:06:53] actually get it. But I don't think.
[1:06:54] Small clubs I don't. Small clubs should not, but they
[1:06:57] should not bend for a Milan or I.
[1:06:59] Agree. They should agree they should.
[1:07:01] If you value a player to let's say 50 mil, if an offer for 50
[1:07:05] mil comes, you should not even be haggling.
[1:07:07] That should just say OK. No problem.
[1:07:08] If you have more than 50% of leverage in that deal, you
[1:07:12] should be stern on it because you set a precedence for the
[1:07:14] future. If a team like Atlanta allows
[1:07:17] Lukman to do what he wants and every.
[1:07:19] Player. Then anyone that wants to
[1:07:21] transfer the future is just going to be a bitch, take out
[1:07:24] all their photos and not show. But then that's that's also on
[1:07:26] the club to say, OK, how do we avoid those certain situations?
[1:07:29] You discipline it now you're not getting your you.
[1:07:31] Make an example out of Lukman. OK.
[1:07:33] And then unfortunately, that's like he's going to have to be a
[1:07:35] professional and keep playing. But I do think that when a
[1:07:38] relationship is at a point where it's irreparable, yeah.
[1:07:42] Like you kind of when's the last?
[1:07:43] When's the last time a player gave in a transfer request and
[1:07:46] let's say didn't get the transfer but they stayed and
[1:07:49] like, skipped training and everything?
[1:07:51] It's not going to happen. No player.
[1:07:53] There's no, no, no, there's there's players that have
[1:07:56] reintegrated and ship who? I'm saying at a level that's
[1:07:59] lookman or higher. Like, I'm not sure, but I do
[1:08:05] think that Lookman will eventually.
[1:08:07] Will be getting it. Would ESAC be able to
[1:08:08] reintegrate? Yeah, that's the first.
[1:08:09] That's the what? We'll see what Esac he.
[1:08:11] Didn't kill ties like he didn't completely he did.
[1:08:13] He skipped training, he said. Like.
[1:08:15] Yeah, she exactly what we were talking about you.
[1:08:17] Went training back in San Sebastian.
[1:08:19] Yeah, I'd also say that. There's a whole theory behind
[1:08:21] the ESAC transfer also that so San Sebastian are trying to
[1:08:24] convince ESAC to get transferred because they have a cell on
[1:08:26] clause. So like they would they would
[1:08:29] pocket like 15 mil from the transfer.
[1:08:31] So they're telling him like, please, like.
[1:08:33] Do this, but you see, Newcastle has no reason to sell ISAC.
[1:08:36] Yeah. However, ISAC has a price
[1:08:38] transfer. So pay the price, then we can
[1:08:41] sell you next year if you want. But then again, that's.
[1:08:44] In my opinion, if I'm ISAC right now and this was offered to him,
[1:08:49] he rejected it because he's stupid.
[1:08:51] If I'm ISAC right now, they offered you a contract extension
[1:08:56] up to like 300 KA week with a release clause of like 130 mil
[1:08:59] or whatever. You sign that shit, just go to
[1:09:01] next summer. Worst case you have a bad
[1:09:03] season, you're on 300 KA week for the next five years.
[1:09:05] Yeah, but I do. Think Julia did that at Wolves?
[1:09:07] That's why he had the release. Clause.
[1:09:09] That's risky. That's risky for Newcastle
[1:09:11] 'cause you're not. There they offered that to him
[1:09:13] and he rejected. I do think, I do think that a
[1:09:15] player like if, if a smaller team doesn't sell him, that is
[1:09:19] peak, they are losing out on revenue.
[1:09:22] Like look man, I don't think you'll get more money now.
[1:09:25] You won't get more money than what's offered now next year.
[1:09:27] Yeah, sure, but if they sell look man and vitegi they don't
[1:09:30] make CL next year, then you actually lost out on more money
[1:09:32] because you you could, you could keep look Man until next year
[1:09:36] selling for 25 mil let's say. They they could find they found
[1:09:38] a tegi and. But they may see, but they may
[1:09:40] find another thing. Yeah, that's because there they
[1:09:44] had, they had the Tegi lined up when they sold Hoyland.
[1:09:48] They had a Plan B, They might not have a Plan B right now for
[1:09:52] Lookman. Yeah, sure.
[1:09:52] The Plan B. The Plan B that they had might
[1:09:55] have been off the table. I would say, I would say if they
[1:09:58] could agree on a fee and then it's contingent on Atlanta
[1:10:01] finding a replacement then like you do it amicably, you don't
[1:10:04] try to sever a relationship with a club if you're inter cuz
[1:10:07] Atlanta could do good business in the future.
[1:10:09] But. Well, you guys got Bastoni from
[1:10:11] there? No.
[1:10:11] Yeah, Bastoni, like I think the the clubs do have good ties, so
[1:10:15] I don't know. Yeah.
[1:10:16] So it's, it's a tough situation, but for Lookman, I feel like
[1:10:19] he's really trying to he's, he's, you can't force a move
[1:10:22] more than what Lookman's doing, right.
[1:10:24] Now, but once again, there's two sides of looking at it.
[1:10:27] If there's the player empowerment, empowerment side
[1:10:30] where you're looking at it from in this situation, like a Milan
[1:10:34] and Joshari situation side where you're, you're looking at it
[1:10:37] like he wants to go there like they should sell.
[1:10:40] But I'm also looking at it like from a club brew side is that
[1:10:44] you still have 4 years left on your contract.
[1:10:46] He should we. We we, you could fuck off for
[1:10:49] the next 4 years for all I care and we still have to pay you.
[1:10:52] There's a contractual obligation that we have to pay you.
[1:10:55] Yeah, they could terminate. They could.
[1:10:56] They could terminate the contract at a certain point if
[1:10:58] they find that, like if they're paying for four years, he's not
[1:11:01] playing. This contract.
[1:11:02] You terminally. Right now he's on no wages.
[1:11:04] But the situation, the situation is also that they demand a
[1:11:07] record transfer fee for Belgium, but.
[1:11:09] You didn't give it to them. We did.
[1:11:10] That's an ego and premier, Premier.
[1:11:12] Add-ons also have. With add-ons, you gave it to
[1:11:14] him, but we did. It was.
[1:11:17] Probably hinging on fucking Milan making pop or something.
[1:11:21] Sure. But that's not.
[1:11:22] That's not guaranteed. That's not happening, but
[1:11:25] regardless, there has been other offers and he's clearly
[1:11:27] rejected. Them but you didn't offer them a
[1:11:30] a transfer a fix record record fee.
[1:11:34] I once again, you don't just accept the first offer, you
[1:11:37] negotiate all the. Time if you want to sell.
[1:11:40] It was the first negotiate. Milan offered 25 mil and then
[1:11:43] moved up 30. OK, 30 wasn't good 33. .5 Has
[1:11:47] Brugge ever said what they wanted?
[1:11:48] No 35, They said they want 30. Five, yeah.
[1:11:51] And we said OK, 33.5 plus bonuses that reaches 37.5.
[1:11:55] Is that an amicable solution? NO35 fixed.
[1:11:59] You're dealing with some stubborn.
[1:12:00] No negotiating stubborn you're you're being stubborn by keeping
[1:12:04] offering. They don't want to sell buck
[1:12:06] teams. They don't want to sell bro
[1:12:08] this. Like I was about to stay with
[1:12:09] the dog. I have a dog.
[1:12:10] You coming off of me, bro? It's a beautiful dog. 20K.
[1:12:12] No, but bro, it's my dog. I don't want to sell it.
[1:12:14] And then you convince my dog but he likes you more.
[1:12:16] But your dog does like, yeah. My dog does.
[1:12:18] Like fuck do I care, he's my dog bro.
[1:12:20] I like my dog. Meanwhile you have a little ship
[1:12:24] next to you that's fucking destroyed and and and like you
[1:12:28] have the worst dog. Loftus Cheek, dog of a bulldog.
[1:12:31] You don't have the cards bro. Madrich, but OK.
[1:12:35] Madrich, that guy has that guy's fucking 7 surgeries down.
[1:12:38] The guy's fucking. He needs to middle hip.
[1:12:40] He needs to be put down in a year.
[1:12:41] Respect Madrich, legend of the sport, by the way, bound the.
[1:12:44] Winner The guy's 40 in dog years.
[1:12:47] Bound the winner, yeah. I don't know.
[1:12:49] We'll we'll see how these transfer work.
[1:12:50] But overall, do you think Joshari will go to Milan?
[1:12:52] No. I've said it from the first day,
[1:12:54] when you start playing hardball like that, it's not.
[1:12:56] Happening and a half bro just put your fucking tail behind
[1:12:58] your legs and say OK. No Shari will join though
[1:13:02] because you I don't think you guys have any backup plans.
[1:13:06] That's not the right way of looking at.
[1:13:08] People, but it is the way of thinking for a million.
[1:13:10] Rather I'd rather you pay the mill and a half then you pivot
[1:13:13] and buy some guy you haven't scouted.
[1:13:14] You see, like any homework. In my eyes, that's the Man
[1:13:16] United Way. You just bend over, you pay the
[1:13:18] price. It's a mill and 1/2 so you're.
[1:13:20] Gonna, but then in the optics you've bent over.
[1:13:22] So you're gonna go buy an Obviously I wouldn't level play
[1:13:27] I. Wouldn't do that.
[1:13:28] So you're, you're saying please do the Man United?
[1:13:30] Way, yeah, but no, I'm not. The issue is that you bro.
[1:13:33] You. You bring up the, you bring up
[1:13:34] the, it sets the tone, right. It sets the example for Milan.
[1:13:38] Then on the other side is every other team that when, when Milan
[1:13:41] says I'll offer you 25, they say Milan caved into Club Rouge last
[1:13:45] time. Exactly.
[1:13:47] We, we ain't, we ain't budgeting because we know Milan, you're
[1:13:49] going to talking about going to bitch and you're going to
[1:13:50] fucking. Just char eat the club bruise.
[1:13:52] Yeah, it's. Embarrassing.
[1:13:53] But that club is using that as a basis for their new they can.
[1:13:57] Your club is mudded. What?
[1:13:59] Do you think happens in the Prem when it's like well by no gitons
[1:14:02] went with for 55, why is my garnacho not worth 55?
[1:14:06] So they do. It exactly.
[1:14:07] There's a bubble in the Prem. They know how to pay.
[1:14:08] They pay the price in the end, yeah.
[1:14:10] That's what it is. Arlene's fucking cooked if you
[1:14:12] want our. League is cooked that it's.
[1:14:14] The way ego is going right now, like I.
[1:14:16] Don't think my brother. I don't think Milan's gonna end
[1:14:18] up getting Joshari for 1.5 minutes.
[1:14:20] Same thing for this man. Gonna be an ego.
[1:14:21] You present. No, I think, I think enter for
[1:14:23] 45 mil. I I think they could find us.
[1:14:25] It's the same. Literally the exact same thing
[1:14:27] as that. I don't think so.
[1:14:28] We have to. Precedence already set by the
[1:14:30] way. Like what like from the Tonali
[1:14:33] dealership where you got bent over backwards and fucking
[1:14:35] reindeer. That's 70 mil rain gears for 70
[1:14:38] mil. Like you got bent over already.
[1:14:41] So I don't know why you're trying to act like this.
[1:14:43] This team that is very OK with like a very we're.
[1:14:47] A cheap team, outgoing we we sell like fucking nothing.
[1:14:50] So you wanted to Shari, but you ain't got your Shari money?
[1:14:53] No, we probably can pay the 35. Actually we can't pay the 35
[1:14:57] but. What cost if I go, if I go right
[1:15:00] now, if I go to dollar store, then yeah, I could go and
[1:15:04] negotiate down. If I walk into Dior and I'm
[1:15:06] trying to get some Dior shoes. So Globe.
[1:15:09] Is now Dior. 2200. So we're getting a Dior shoe.
[1:15:12] 2200 is a bit high. I'll offer you 2000.
[1:15:15] They'll tell me. Get the fuck out of the store.
[1:15:17] So Joshari is Dior, got it. Joshari is a very good player.
[1:15:20] I think, I think players are something that you can
[1:15:22] negotiate. You can only negotiate there's.
[1:15:23] Always something they find so many things to negotiate on.
[1:15:26] You could have done 35 fixed and then worked on the payment
[1:15:28] structure so that people that who know know that you guys
[1:15:31] didn't get completely rinsed like you work 35,000,000, you're
[1:15:34] paying all three or four years. But the optics are that Club
[1:15:37] Rouge Club Rouge fans will say, oh, they got they wanted they
[1:15:40] they got the record transfer fee in Belgium.
[1:15:43] And then you guys behind the scenes know Club Rouge, know
[1:15:45] next time they sell to you that Milan won't be stepped on
[1:15:47] because you split up over 3-4. Years.
[1:15:49] However, the agents are saying the fee is respectable.
[1:15:52] Milan knows the fee is respectable.
[1:15:54] Club Rouge doesn't. You are not the judge of what's
[1:15:56] respected. Though it's my dog, Yeah, I know
[1:15:58] what I what I carry for my. Dog it's it's an interesting
[1:16:01] situation. I'm not trying to compare dogs
[1:16:02] to players, but it's just an analogy that was working at this
[1:16:05] point. But yeah, that, I guess that was
[1:16:08] the the that was our ranch, yeah.
[1:16:10] We'll see anyways, that and more of the story.
[1:16:11] Milan teams are cheap. Yeah, and the teams are cheap.
[1:16:14] Who wrote down this one? Cheap Newcastle getting rejected
[1:16:17] by everyone. It's just a cool that.
[1:16:18] Was a that was a vom our interjection?
[1:16:21] I'm actually genuinely curious as to why Newcastle's getting
[1:16:24] rejected by everyone. Explain.
[1:16:27] Cunya rejected and Bueno rejected.
[1:16:30] I I personally believe Sheshko's about to reject them.
[1:16:32] Yeah. And then when we reject them.
[1:16:33] Yeah, that's documented. That's just paid more.
[1:16:36] No, we didn't. They were.
[1:16:38] Kunya was a release clause. You genuinely rejected.
[1:16:40] You paid more. Wages.
[1:16:42] OK, someone's fucking. You're so hard headed when it
[1:16:46] comes to Man United. That's how it works.
[1:16:48] Yeah, for sure. How much you giving Kunya?
[1:16:51] I'm trying to remember which other players rejected them.
[1:16:53] There's like a whole, whole Cathy K, Jao Pedro, Cathy K,
[1:16:58] like all these players rejected them this summer.
[1:17:00] In my opinion, Newcastle is a club that should be attractive
[1:17:03] for people to join right now. But the the sporting director
[1:17:07] just left before the summer. That has a big toll on how you
[1:17:10] conduct business and clearly like it's affected them because
[1:17:14] they can't close the deal. But I don't know, I like, like
[1:17:19] another sporting director is going to come in.
[1:17:20] It's not going to be that big of a deal.
[1:17:22] Newcastle players are still the same players that finished
[1:17:25] fourth last year or fifth last year like and won a trophy.
[1:17:28] Yeah, but it takes a good sporting director to convey the
[1:17:31] the vision to say, oh, look, we have Eddie Howe here who's
[1:17:34] leading this team to the next step next season.
[1:17:36] We bought these players. If you don't have a sporting
[1:17:38] director to do that, to conduct business, like what are you
[1:17:41] what? Are you sure there's someone
[1:17:43] taking the call? Yes, but the fact who, who was
[1:17:46] the New Castle sporting director?
[1:17:47] He's a. It was Paul Mitchell, yeah, the
[1:17:49] AS Monaco's exactly. And he's a great sporting
[1:17:52] director, but he he is a good sporting director.
[1:17:54] But once again, if I'm, let's say, well, I don't know in this
[1:18:02] situation, like if I'm Benjamin Sheshko, obviously me as a Man
[1:18:05] United fan, I'd rather go to Man United.
[1:18:07] But if if I don't know, I'm like, I'm just surprised that
[1:18:12] Newcastle aren't a bigger pole right now for players.
[1:18:16] Yeah, it's kind of crazy because you see like the lower level
[1:18:21] teams are still making big moves.
[1:18:22] Like there must be something going on with Newcastle, maybe
[1:18:26] personal terms that aren't being agreed to or maybe the players
[1:18:29] that they're that they're aiming for.
[1:18:31] Like they may have already had the idea that they were going to
[1:18:35] go to Manchester United or go to another team.
[1:18:37] I'm not I'm not sure. Like it seems like they got into
[1:18:39] a lot of these players very late on.
[1:18:41] Like Akitika. Akitika rumors happened while
[1:18:45] they. Were they were first time before
[1:18:46] Liverpool? Yeah, but it was like so close
[1:18:48] to it. It was like the next the next
[1:18:50] two or three days. We already signed for Liverpool.
[1:18:51] But exactly, I think it takes a good sporting director to to
[1:18:54] know cut everybody off and say, OK, it's done.
[1:18:57] And in this case early. Yeah, to get on things early in
[1:19:00] agreed terms and and already target someone in the midfield
[1:19:04] helps. In your Liverpool though.
[1:19:06] It does help, yes, but Liverpool have an amazing sporting
[1:19:08] director. But look, Man United, we're
[1:19:10] like, we are Man United, but we are 15th last year.
[1:19:13] Like, other than the fact that we are Man United, there's no
[1:19:17] reason to join Man United over Newcastle right now.
[1:19:20] Newcastle could be seen as a better situation, sure.
[1:19:23] Like Newcastle have money. Like it's not a, it's not a
[1:19:25] thing about the Newcastle's like Newcastle have a lot of money.
[1:19:28] They're bidding 80 million for Seschel.
[1:19:30] Like it's not like they have their penny pinching.
[1:19:33] Like they're ready to spend the Guam they were in for Ecka TK
[1:19:35] Wentz for 95. Like they're ready to spend the
[1:19:37] money. It makes it makes sense why he
[1:19:39] would reject no Konya would make more sense why he reject
[1:19:42] Newcastle because the positioning and all that like it
[1:19:44] just I think their success is more guaranteed at Manchester
[1:19:46] United for him because he'd be trying to get over what Anthony
[1:19:49] Gordon. Well, yeah, but the thing The
[1:19:54] thing is that how this directly leads into the reason why I
[1:19:57] think Isak's transfer request came so late in the summer,
[1:20:00] because usually if you're doing something like that, you do it
[1:20:03] early in the summer. So you have as many teams
[1:20:04] available to you as possible. Like, who knows who would have
[1:20:06] came in? Arsenal made it, came in before
[1:20:07] they went for Yuktis, you know, and then you have a bidding a
[1:20:11] whole. I think it's calculated.
[1:20:13] I think Isak realized. After all these players rejected
[1:20:16] them cuz I think they wanted to put Kuya and Embuemo in the
[1:20:18] middle with Isaac. Like I think that was their
[1:20:21] dream scenario. They wanted yeah and Anthony
[1:20:24] Gordon as a backup cuz they have CL this year.
[1:20:25] Like they're gonna have a big rotation.
[1:20:28] I think he realized fuck, no one wants to join this team.
[1:20:32] Like that's that's what I think he probably got promised like
[1:20:35] going into the summer, Like, oh, we're going to sign like good
[1:20:37] players, like just watch. And then I don't think it's
[1:20:40] that. I personally think that's what
[1:20:42] led to this scenario. It sounds too dumb, like you
[1:20:45] don't, you don't look at your you don't play here.
[1:20:47] Yeah. But why?
[1:20:48] But why? He probably asked.
[1:20:50] He probably asked like he told Newcastle.
[1:20:52] I need to be like competing for trophies like this summer, like
[1:20:55] we need to sign. Like, I'm not, I'm, I'm not
[1:20:58] going into the season of all respect to all respect to Jacob
[1:21:01] Murphy. He's a.
[1:21:03] Bigger he's acts by far the best player on on OK.
[1:21:05] But no player is bigger than the club.
[1:21:06] So like, OK, if the club is going clearly in the right
[1:21:09] direction, he's. Not a chatty director.
[1:21:10] You're if you're EZAC, you take the, you take control of your
[1:21:14] own career. I, I it's.
[1:21:16] Not a Newcastle, no, but if you're a if there's a club out
[1:21:20] there willing to pay 150 mil for you, it is not a it's not a
[1:21:23] Jashari situation where you're trying to force your way there
[1:21:26] by taking less like the club is willing to pay whatever they you
[1:21:29] want for them. Who, Liverpool.
[1:21:31] You don't want to pay? Yes, they are.
[1:21:33] They offered 1:15 and yeah, but they don't.
[1:21:36] They like there's a way they didn't even.
[1:21:38] They didn't even like. They didn't offer 150 just cause
[1:21:41] Newcastle doesn't want to sell. Newcastle didn't even give a
[1:21:43] price. Is in 150 the price?
[1:21:46] We're just assuming it's not, I think for richer.
[1:21:48] So Fabrica said it's probably around like probably around
[1:21:51] 1:50. But they didn't actually quote a
[1:21:53] price the 150 came from. I think Newcastle have them
[1:21:55] written down as he's worth 150 on their balance sheet.
[1:21:58] Okay, I think that's what the 150 number, but they never
[1:22:01] quoted Liverpool a price, but I think Liverpool will just pay
[1:22:04] whatever they want for him. Liverpool have a shit ton of
[1:22:07] money right now. It's there's no FFP issues,
[1:22:09] there's no PSR issues. Like I I don't know, I think
[1:22:12] Newcastle probably just promised him like look, we're going to
[1:22:14] sign like Cunya and Buemo. They probably give a shit ton of
[1:22:18] promises. We're going to put you you don't
[1:22:20] worry, you're not going to play next year with like a Jacob
[1:22:21] Murphy. You're not going to play with
[1:22:22] the. Players don't think.
[1:22:24] Like that. They do think like that.
[1:22:26] Like he's actively saying, oh, look, Jacob Murphy's here.
[1:22:28] No, but I don't want to play with him.
[1:22:29] You. Could be in those meetings
[1:22:31] saying like we need a better right winger next season.
[1:22:33] I really doubt he's like is in those meetings.
[1:22:35] Yeah, me too. I really I just think the
[1:22:36] situation is that they got caught too, too late with no
[1:22:40] sporting director and said, shit, what do we do now?
[1:22:43] Let's let's meet, let's figure it out.
[1:22:45] And by the time they were meeting and figuring it out, and
[1:22:48] Katiga went to Liverpool and Bueno went to Man United, Cunia
[1:22:50] went to Man United and they're saying fuck, who's left Cesco,
[1:22:53] try Cesco now. It's just not, there's no
[1:22:55] strategy. Maybe at this point, 'cause you
[1:22:57] lost your supporting director who had the strategy.
[1:23:00] That's my opinion, the simplest thing to put this.
[1:23:02] I don't know Newcastle fans, let us know.
[1:23:04] I don't actually have a big Newcastle community in our on.
[1:23:07] This. I've been seeing a bunch of
[1:23:09] people on the Patreon join. It's actually.
[1:23:11] A NUFC. It's a growing, it's a growing
[1:23:14] one of the clubs that I actually feel like they're doing an
[1:23:17] amazing job getting fans into the sport, but those people are
[1:23:21] still like. They have a sick team still you.
[1:23:23] Have fans for life, I guess. It's the fact they got to now
[1:23:25] like. Like I feel like 10 years ago
[1:23:27] Newcastle wouldn't have been a major presence in our Patreon
[1:23:31] and Discord. Yeah, definitely.
[1:23:33] It would be rare to see them. Yeah, Be like seeing a Leicester
[1:23:35] fan. Exactly we There is one
[1:23:37] Leicester fan in our In our. Picture.
[1:23:38] That's pretty well, yeah. More Newcastle.
[1:23:41] Fan By the way, shout out to the Varva RFC gang.
[1:23:43] Fazzie Ghost L Max. I'm forgetting one of them.
[1:23:47] Shut up Luka Zernich, a Newcastle fan and the Maxi Kedi.
[1:23:52] Whatever, I'll shout out. Dons, the Dons.
[1:23:54] In the disc gang, you guys are the goats.
[1:23:56] Sound out to everyone on page, John.
[1:23:57] Bro, Guys are the goats, Yeah. Yes.
[1:23:59] Do we got any? I don't think there's any Spurs
[1:24:01] fans for this next topic in the discord.
[1:24:03] I haven't seen any Spurs. Fans, but I mean, there are a
[1:24:06] lot of fans of that player. Yeah, it's true.
[1:24:09] Yeah. So Sun is confirmed here we go
[1:24:12] to LAFC. This is is this big for the MLS?
[1:24:17] I think it's a record transfer for MLS.
[1:24:19] It's like 25 or 26,000,000. No, that's not a record
[1:24:22] transfer. Who would have been more?
[1:24:24] 25 mil is the record transfer. DePaul DePaul 1 DePaul is
[1:24:27] supposed like 15, yeah. Something we think about MLS is
[1:24:30] that it's all based on trades, it's all based on free
[1:24:32] transfers. It's all like it's.
[1:24:34] Yeah, they can't spend like. That they don't spend, they
[1:24:36] really don't spend, but this is they spend money on contracts.
[1:24:39] Yeah. That's usually what it is.
[1:24:41] John Duran is the record transfer for 29.5.
[1:24:43] But that's. Outwards.
[1:24:45] Oh, yeah. Sorry.
[1:24:48] Oh. Misinformation then like I'm.
[1:24:50] Iran too, was it? Was it?
[1:24:53] Puig their top transfer is a 21 mil Emmanuel latte lath Italian
[1:25:00] dual citizen Cote d'Ivoire. And we left Italian, we left
[1:25:03] that. Let me check.
[1:25:04] Let me check in on how he's doing right now.
[1:25:06] Yeah, but I think son definitely another good addition to to MLS.
[1:25:12] But from what I've seen that a lot of these top, well, former
[1:25:15] top players that are joining MLS haven't really fared well, Like
[1:25:19] not. Doing too well.
[1:25:20] Yeah, like Royce. Royce, I don't think is doing
[1:25:23] too great. But that's cuz LA Galaxy's a
[1:25:26] pitch show. Yeah, they stink.
[1:25:28] He's just. LAFC is a well run machine,
[1:25:29] yeah. LAFC's very.
[1:25:30] Competing. They're generally competing and.
[1:25:33] I think, I think Giroud just left them.
[1:25:35] So that was the spot vacated by. Bro sun is not washed, Son is
[1:25:39] not washed. He's gonna look, it's either
[1:25:42] gonna be, it's crazy to say, but him or Messi are probably the
[1:25:45] best players in the league, yeah.
[1:25:46] Yeah, yeah. Well, disregarding all the guys
[1:25:48] that I. Heard, but it's like he could he
[1:25:50] could. I'm not gonna low key in 2025.
[1:25:53] Would you rather in your team, human son or messy?
[1:25:56] Probably messy. I'm not gonna cap.
[1:25:58] That's I'm not gonna cap. But human son, is is can go bar
[1:26:04] for bar right now. Yeah, I think.
[1:26:05] Bro he could still play in the Premier League, what a career.
[1:26:07] He's had definitely. He had like, I think like 20
[1:26:09] goals and assists last season. Then yes, he did.
[1:26:11] He's a little. Bit high he he had a premier in
[1:26:14] the radiation season, but he did.
[1:26:16] Let me check. I'm thinking a little 1718 GA.
[1:26:20] I mean 1718 versus 20 like 17 and 20 running this up 16 he
[1:26:24] had. Fuck 16, there you go.
[1:26:26] He had 22 in all comps though. OK, we lift up.
[1:26:29] Yeah, very. Yeah.
[1:26:30] Season a little too early for him for MLS, but I think for MLS
[1:26:34] to get a player of that caliber, right.
[1:26:36] Now Sony wants to see the lights of LA.
[1:26:37] Yeah, I don't blame him. I don't blame him either
[1:26:39] honestly. But he, he, he, you would think
[1:26:42] that I read something that he's, he's actually not going to live
[1:26:46] in London anymore, like his permanent residence.
[1:26:48] He's going back to Seoul in, in oh wow, South Korea.
[1:26:52] So. So he's really leaving.
[1:26:54] Yeah, like he he's not. He's moving out on your own.
[1:26:57] He's going to go. He's so he can travel by.
[1:26:59] I was. Thinking that South Korea's.
[1:27:01] Actually, I've never, I've never gone to Asia or anywhere near
[1:27:04] that side of the world. You know, can you take the
[1:27:06] flight over the Pacific or? No, yeah, of course.
[1:27:09] No, but you can. There's a fucking wall.
[1:27:10] Or I think my my sister's going to Thailand.
[1:27:13] She has to go the other way. She's driving from from Canada
[1:27:16] like over Europe. She's going the other way.
[1:27:19] Yeah. No bro.
[1:27:21] Well, usually there's no unless you're doing a a layover.
[1:27:24] Maybe that's, there's always a layover.
[1:27:25] Like I think it like if we're based in Canada, like I, I think
[1:27:28] you could do Toronto, Vancouver, Vancouver, Seoul, like I think
[1:27:32] that's a route, yes, you could jump like 100% yes.
[1:27:36] They're both still very long. Though, But I think like Canada,
[1:27:39] Australia, there's a direct flight and it's like 24 hours.
[1:27:41] No, you go over Europe to Thailand from Montreal.
[1:27:45] Really. Yeah, you catch the, you catch
[1:27:47] the. What about the Seoul?
[1:27:49] Well, I know from like flights, flights from Korea to LA,
[1:27:54] they're not that long. They're what, 8 hours?
[1:27:57] You're over the ocean. Same price of going to Europe.
[1:28:01] Yeah, no, they're pretty long. Never mind. 14.
[1:28:04] But the Pacific Ocean's fucking. Massive because fuck.
[1:28:06] You know what? Maybe you?
[1:28:07] Just leave me for real the Pacific.
[1:28:08] For real Man episode 69 Pacific. Rim they're pretty long.
[1:28:12] I don't know, I see 11 hours here, but some fucking somebody
[1:28:14] in the comments is going to say you.
[1:28:15] Well, actually that's a connection.
[1:28:16] I actually don't know anything. That's a connecting flight.
[1:28:18] Flight Flight knowledge. Someone just say I don't know.
[1:28:20] I have no fucking clue how long it takes but.
[1:28:23] Good for him. Good for him honestly, and
[1:28:25] that's going to be sick as I got to see him.
[1:28:26] Next, I think this is going to grow the league a lot, to be
[1:28:28] honest. They've played a game recently
[1:28:31] in Korea. He's like a God.
[1:28:33] He's yes it. Is the best Asian player?
[1:28:35] Every single Korean person feels like a Spurs fan now.
[1:28:39] Yeah, like it's actually. With that hand Barber.
[1:28:40] But that was pretty. Cool.
[1:28:42] OK, yeah, so whatever. Every single Korean fan is a
[1:28:45] Spurs fan. This the aura this guy hasn't.
[1:28:48] You know who got aura in Korea? Kanye West, did you see the show
[1:28:52] he did recently in Korea? Yeah, the Shane Gillis thing.
[1:28:57] Did you see? Did you see?
[1:28:58] Did you, did you see? Bro, that show was aura, bro,
[1:29:01] flashing lights. He said just play the sense,
[1:29:03] bro, that's crazy. And then everyone sang and he
[1:29:05] was on this moon structure. She was crazy.
[1:29:08] Did you see also human son's dad in his last game, he's getting
[1:29:11] subbed off. Everyone's giving him a standing
[1:29:13] ovation. His dad was just like this, like
[1:29:15] the son was crying. Have you ever seen the videos of
[1:29:20] son and his dad and his dad was telling them the journalist
[1:29:23] about how he used training son when he was when he was?
[1:29:27] He was like a disciplinarian. Yeah, it was like I used to make
[1:29:29] him do like 100 petitions, left foot, 100 right foot, like
[1:29:32] bounce off the wall and back, back, back, like very, very
[1:29:35] disciplined and son like honestly became that player
[1:29:37] where every part of his game was pretty developed.
[1:29:41] In under any coach, yeah, ever. Tottenham was changing coaches
[1:29:44] every year at one point and he fit under every coach.
[1:29:47] It's like he got. There he was, never alive.
[1:29:48] He was. Amazing when Kane left to like
[1:29:50] 5. Star weak foot.
[1:29:51] Yeah, it's his son, one of the least hated players 100% in the
[1:29:56] world. I somehow found an agenda
[1:29:58] against him a couple of years really.
[1:30:00] That he might be the only one to wait for.
[1:30:01] This to apologize for. That I just personally don't
[1:30:03] think he's a Prem Alzheimer like people give him.
[1:30:07] That he's not in the. He's not in the.
[1:30:08] He wasn't he like top ten in goals?
[1:30:11] Yeah, but you see, I don't think that like like the.
[1:30:13] Top ten in goals of the last decade.
[1:30:15] He's still there. He's he doesn't make the all
[1:30:17] Time Team obviously, but he's an all timer.
[1:30:19] But like, like if you talk about like a 2010's era team, like I
[1:30:22] think he's in a. Is he an icon?
[1:30:24] I find he's exactly like like Alexis.
[1:30:26] I think he's an. Icon Alexis Sanchez versus son.
[1:30:29] Son was better. For the Prem I find in the Prem
[1:30:33] they were similar levels. No, like in terms of technical
[1:30:36] ability. Maybe.
[1:30:36] No in terms of anything, No in terms of full package.
[1:30:40] Sun was insane, yeah, but Sanchez?
[1:30:42] Sanchez had a little like Sun was on the up.
[1:30:45] Sanchez had like an up, then down and then a little bit down.
[1:30:48] It wasn't as inconsistent. It wasn't as.
[1:30:50] Consistent. Yeah, exactly.
[1:30:51] And even for Korea, bro, this guy's a dawn.
[1:30:53] Yeah, just a dawn. Consistency.
[1:30:55] The only the only first player I'll ever read.
[1:30:57] Didn't they win a Yes he did title?
[1:31:00] Yeah, like a champion. He won the Olympics.
[1:31:02] He in the Olympics, I think he got a medal.
[1:31:04] I don't think they won gold. He might have won gold.
[1:31:06] I'm not going to cap, but I think he won a medal at the
[1:31:09] Olympics, which got him out of mandatory military service.
[1:31:13] Yeah, well, if you win an Olympic medal, you don't have.
[1:31:14] To yeah, because then you're you get given the excellence 'cause
[1:31:18] you get given. Medal of excellent medal.
[1:31:20] Like an excellence, an excellent go around that you don't need to
[1:31:24] do military service. Some would have probably been
[1:31:26] nasty in the military. It was crazy cuz if he hadn't
[1:31:29] won that he would have. Actually I think it was either
[1:31:31] this year or last year he would have to do military service.
[1:31:33] He would have missed a whole year.
[1:31:34] Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah, so lavi.
[1:31:36] So Lavi. Is that it?
[1:31:39] That's is. That it for us.
[1:31:40] I think episode 69 as a banger Man United I had everything Man
[1:31:45] United talk Milan Inter bantering that they're 2 broke.
[1:31:48] And had every. Beat it was just missing a bit
[1:31:50] of UV hate. Yeah, but if we had UV hate in
[1:31:52] there, it would have been the most box to box podcast.
[1:31:55] OK, OK. Who?
[1:31:56] Who had the best transfer window?
[1:31:57] Not UV, not. UVA not UVA.
[1:31:58] OK, Perfect, perfect. You went to you went to set a
[1:32:01] Jan at 22. Yeah, yeah, bro, we're playing
[1:32:05] Rolex football. Rolex Football.
[1:32:07] Igor Tudor. Oh my.
[1:32:09] God Miretti Miretti is a star. Right, Father, I told you, don't
[1:32:12] make fun of Miretti because you might keep him.
[1:32:14] You know, Striker, you should have signed and I'm not kidding,
[1:32:17] Vlavich. Come out of there.
[1:32:19] You're gonna you're gonna sage because you have biased.
[1:32:21] You should have signed Kolomani. It would have been a cheap not
[1:32:24] against. No, I'm saying it would have
[1:32:25] been a cheap 50. 5 mil. That's not cheap.
[1:32:27] Cheap bro, he's young. I would have rather signed
[1:32:30] Watkins at that point. I'm just saying he has all the
[1:32:33] tools that Man United need, whether you think it's Premier
[1:32:36] League level. You see, your superstar signing
[1:32:38] of the summer is like my seventh option striker.
[1:32:41] You understand that? Yeah.
[1:32:42] I don't know about that. Seventh option is kind of.
[1:32:44] Crazy seventh option. Watkins, Matetta, Gio, Kadesh,
