## Transcript

[0:00] Welcome back to the Boxer Box podcast.
[0:02] This is episode 59 and today we will be doing the final power
[0:05] ranking of the season and then we're going to be comparing them
[0:07] with our first. But before we get into that,
[0:09] we're going to need to talk about the Europa League final.
[0:11] What a shambolic performance by both teams.
[0:14] And obviously the final day of the Premier League came and
[0:16] went. We now know who is going to be
[0:17] in Champions League next season. All that and more on the Boxer
[0:20] Box Podcast. Faminos, you ain't going home.
[0:24] Your Honor, I'm sorry. Your Honor, I'm sorry.
[0:30] And also on the pitch. And Bangula starts our next.
[0:41] Game tomorrow. Would you rather Saliba and
[0:42] Buffett? Right.
[0:44] Saliba right now when? You lie, boys, it's good to be
[0:56] back. Yeah, it's good to be back right
[0:58] after UV makes CL. As you can tell, Paula's in such
[1:01] a joyous mood. Wasn't wasn't in such a joyous
[1:04] mood for a little bit there because Producer T spoiled a bit
[1:07] of the goals with him. He hasn't literally, we speak
[1:10] about on the podcast, turn notifications off.
[1:12] Producer T did not have the notifications.
[1:14] Off he didn't bring volume up for.
[1:17] The context as Vanessa are running on the counter attack
[1:20] all yours. Oh, Vanessa scored.
[1:23] Oh, Vanessa scored. Those who don't know the what
[1:27] I'm talking about, Juventus just played Venezia.
[1:29] Juventus had to win or else they didn't make Champions League for
[1:32] next season and Venezia had to win or else they get relegated.
[1:35] And the first goal, what it was 10 for Venezia and Varvar.
[1:40] Varvar's standing right in front of me.
[1:42] I'm watching the game. It's like the third minute.
[1:43] Varvar's looking at Millie like this, 'cause Milly's on his
[1:46] phone and he he doesn't have the notifications on.
[1:48] I'm just looking at Milly. Like bro, you, you just saw a
[1:50] notification that I just, and I see Varvar and I know of the
[1:52] freaking look, 'cause I see that look on the live streams.
[1:55] Whatever. It was a crazy, it was a crazy
[1:56] game event. That was like a game, too.
[1:58] And event this isn't Champions League next season.
[2:01] Crazy final day of City. I can't cap.
[2:03] Better than the final day extravaganza bonanza that the
[2:05] Premier League offered. Kind of an underwhelming day.
[2:07] I'm not going to cap because even clubs like Aston Villa,
[2:11] like brother, you got a red card.
[2:13] They're they are saying that which I agree the Bayindere.
[2:17] That should have been a. Goal should have been a goal.
[2:19] I agree completely. I'm saying from Man United POV.
[2:21] I mean I had no fucking stake in the game.
[2:23] I don't really care if Man United lost.
[2:25] I think that should have been a goal.
[2:26] He never fully had control so I'll say that that should have
[2:29] counted. But.
[2:31] And Danny Olmo just scored Barcelona 3 nil.
[2:35] But yeah, I mean, Newcastle played terrible.
[2:38] I'm up in the tunes today because made Champions League
[2:41] and I like Newcastle, they're my team Next year.
[2:43] I'm already saying next year CL streams, I will be repping
[2:46] Newcastle. Shout out all the Newcastle Dons
[2:49] and the discord. Luka Zurnich, Mexican Eddie,
[2:52] shout out the goats. I think you're competing with
[2:55] them next season. I, I find that hard and I don't
[2:58] know bro, you're never going to be competing with Newcastle.
[3:00] We will see in the near future, we will see.
[3:02] I think Newcastle next year will actually make a run, but that's
[3:04] for next year's. They have a good project going
[3:06] on. Yeah, but yeah, Chelsea, Chelsea
[3:08] made Champions League. That was my main hate watch of
[3:11] the day. I was, I was hate watching.
[3:14] I mean, UVA was a good like UVA was a good good like dessert to
[3:19] the main meal. The main meal was a bit
[3:20] underwhelming because honestly, if I had to grade the whole
[3:23] meal, you've made CL Chelsea made CL.
[3:25] Very disappointing day to be honest.
[3:27] Everyone ate Yeah, I. Could have been I could have
[3:28] been a rage big kind of day, but.
[3:30] If you were wondering where I went, 'cause I've ever jumped
[3:32] straight into Chelsea Champions League, I was in Italy for 11
[3:35] days. Oh yeah, shit.
[3:37] Why was it? When was his first podcast back?
[3:38] Oh fuck yeah. Yeah.
[3:39] Yeah, I feel like all the all these live streams I lost count.
[3:42] Yeah, yeah, 'cause we're always recording.
[3:44] So like we, we just think of like podcast YouTube as like one
[3:49] big 'cause. We so.
[3:49] Recorded YouTube. We lose track of the time of
[3:52] Last Time podcast and This Time podcast, but yeah.
[3:55] How is Italy? One second I got AI got a cold
[3:57] as you could tell. Oh, I who gave you that?
[4:00] I don't know, bro. There was somebody sick in the
[4:03] the production crew of Boxer Box.
[4:06] Yeah, I got it's 'cause my immune system was low and Varvar
[4:08] just he said, Bro, I, I it's been so long I haven't seen you.
[4:11] And then he just sneezed all in my face.
[4:12] Varvar, a casual Varvar SCW. Right now, yeah, but no, Italy
[4:16] was amazing. Originally I planned on going
[4:18] for two things. One the Latzio Juventus game and
[4:21] I don't know if you if anybody. Planning around the Latzio
[4:23] Juventus game is crazy behavior, but.
[4:25] That's all. I actually have passion for my
[4:27] team. I go watch them in person.
[4:28] And still to watch yours, by the way. 88% capacity, by the way.
[4:33] Terrible, terrible. Also, actually, that's a good
[4:36] segue. I watched, I watched.
[4:37] I've been looking at the wrong camera this whole time.
[4:39] Yeah, I've been watching. It was 56,000 people in a
[4:42] stadium, Lazio fans, 56,000 Lazio fans in a stadium.
[4:47] That's that's a stadium. That's a very bad like, like I
[4:50] went to the better because it's closed in.
[4:53] Yeah, the Olympico, that is a it's a tough state to play at if
[4:57] you're an away fan. Yeah, and like, it doesn't
[4:59] matter if there's 70,000 people. Why the fuck we always get back
[5:03] to the Olympico? Because because, brother, the
[5:05] Olympico is something you need to witness when you're in Rome,
[5:07] you need to go to the Olympico. It's simple, you don't go to.
[5:10] Front. He's trying to get that 8892
[5:12] just himself. I'm trying to pump up the
[5:14] fucking stocks 'cause I can't believe people like you say
[5:17] that. 12% What were we? Saying 12% not at the stadium is
[5:21] an embarrassing stat. It's a grim way of looking at
[5:23] 88% attendance. But to be honest, it wasn't a
[5:26] great, it wasn't a great experience aside from the like,
[5:29] the experience itself while I was in my seat was amazing.
[5:32] But getting there, figuring out where I was sitting.
[5:35] It's the infrastructure. Shit, all that stuff like my
[5:37] Uber dropped me off like 25 minute walk away from my around
[5:40] away from the stadium because you couldn't get closer because
[5:43] of the police and stuff. Yeah.
[5:45] And then? You've been lost?
[5:46] No. No, no, it was tied.
[5:48] Drug Yeah, it was a drug bro, I I've.
[5:52] Read last minute No. Was that Pedro?
[5:54] Again, I don't remember. No, no, no.
[5:56] But it was a penalty if I'm not mistaken.
[5:58] Bro there was 2 called off goals red card use.
[6:02] These red cards. Not Kalulu, Kalulu red cards,
[6:06] the elbow on Castellanos. That was the biggest fake I saw
[6:08] 10 feet away from you was such a fake.
[6:10] But whatever. That was the first portion and
[6:12] then towards the end, the second to last day, I went to Imola and
[6:17] watched the the fire, the Formula One at Imola, which was
[6:20] that was an amazing experience. Bro, you want to watch real fans
[6:24] of Formula One? They're they're they're adding.
[6:26] It's like a pilgrimage going to like the iconic, iconic tracks.
[6:30] Like If you go to let's see the newer, the newer tracks and
[6:33] whatever, it's like, K, it's cool.
[6:35] Like you're there, but like Imola, I would say Spa or.
[6:39] Bro Monaco looks like an experience.
[6:41] Silverstone. Monaco looks like the if for me
[6:44] personally. Monaco looks like the one I'd
[6:46] want to go. I'm a casual, that's why.
[6:48] But the race, Monaco, the race is on Saturdays.
[6:50] The Monaco. The race really isn't on Sunday
[6:52] like it's qualifying, usually Qualifying, that's supposed.
[6:55] To be bad or. Well no, it's just like I I
[6:58] would recommend you go Saturday instead of Sunday.
[7:01] Yeah, even at that it's just Monaco is for the I'd say Monaco
[7:05] is for the non F1 fan. It's a glitz and glam.
[7:07] It's like the city, then. Like the city.
[7:09] The yachts. Yeah, the.
[7:10] Yachts and stuff like F1 fans you go to, like you go to like
[7:15] Silverstone you go to, Spa you go to.
[7:18] Well, there's a Imola Monza. Yeah, yeah.
[7:20] But Imola apparently might not get renewed because they're
[7:23] making a track in Madrid. Well, a shame in 2026 so.
[7:26] Basically, Madrid told him. Get sunned.
[7:29] Well, they're making new stadiums, so they're making you
[7:30] racetrack and e-mail us, old bro that.
[7:32] Infrastructure, yeah, it's very. Old I was sitting on grass.
[7:35] Well, I also saw in a a general missionary.
[7:37] Basically, Madrid told Emo. I get your money up, not your
[7:40] funny up. Basically it'll have two races
[7:43] though, so it's so if we lose 1 at least we still have.
[7:46] The Monza, I think Monza is more.
[7:48] Is it? Could it be the more famous one?
[7:50] I think emo is famous because I think that's that's where Senna
[7:54] went. Monza's only famous for almost
[7:57] getting a come out of the loan and getting relegated in 20th
[8:00] spot. That's the only thing I know
[8:01] Monza for. But he.
[8:03] Attracts in Manchester. Silverstone.
[8:06] Well, I don't think Silverstone. Silverstone's in the middle of
[8:08] nowhere. But it's not in Manchester.
[8:09] You can't lift that one. But bro, the walk, the walk from
[8:12] so you get off the train at Emola and you have to walk 2
[8:14] kilometers to the racetrack. It's one long St. through the
[8:17] city of Emola and there's just porchetta stand, Padina stand.
[8:22] People are selling cherry bro. It was it.
[8:24] Was great drill. They know the drill, they know
[8:26] the and then after bro, you're eating.
[8:28] It's like lamb on a stick. Spadina I think is what it's
[8:30] called. Spadina.
[8:31] Yeah, bro, beer. And then I watched right after I
[8:35] watched the BNL Internationality, the tennis
[8:38] tournament. Oh yeah, Sinner, it was the
[8:40] final. Right after the race.
[8:42] I'm walking back, I see everyone's watching tennis
[8:44] because Italians love tennis. And Sinner was in the final
[8:46] versus Alcaraz. But I go to this big open air
[8:49] bar and it's just a bunch of Italians watching the I watched
[8:52] the whole tennis set. He smoked.
[8:54] Them though Alcaraz. Yeah, yeah, it was a shame, but
[8:56] I that's one of those like new rivalries that's gonna be gonna
[8:59] be the the marquee rivalry now for our next generation.
[9:01] The Italian youth is better at tennis than they are.
[9:03] They low key. No wrong.
[9:05] Mousetti, Mousti and Skinner and Sinner both went to the.
[9:09] The head of the tennis department.
[9:10] We need to move you over to change your sports.
[9:12] Yeah, and real, honestly. But yeah, not the Italy.
[9:15] Italy right now. Hub for sport right now.
[9:17] Yeah, it's crazy. Always been bro.
[9:19] Always been, I thought, like. Every sport, I've always
[9:22] succeeded. But I feel like the the global
[9:24] standing in terms of like our Italian standing in sport has
[9:29] diminished over football. And everything else?
[9:32] No. No, but like the best.
[9:33] Tennis player win Olympic gold? Yeah.
[9:35] You're the best tennis player. Alcoraz is the best tennis
[9:37] player. OK.
[9:37] Sinners Number. One the world. #1 yes.
[9:40] Bro right now he may be the world number that's like he
[9:42] right now. That's like he deserved.
[9:44] He's been world number one. That's like.
[9:45] Barcelona right now, Barcelona the best.
[9:48] Barcelona at the top of the fucking power rankings.
[9:51] Like, yeah, you're there right now, but we know come the end of
[9:53] the season they're gonna lose the fucking Inter, they're gonna
[9:56] lose the PSG, they're gonna lose to these good team.
[9:57] They won the league. One dinner was a one off.
[10:01] Al Kraz is 3. He's not even watching now.
[10:02] He might be two, maybe two. He was 3.
[10:04] Bro Al Kraz, Al kraz I like Sinner.
[10:07] I like Sinner, but Al Kraz is different.
[10:09] Gravy, even running, running, running the sprinter Jacobs.
[10:13] Yeah, that guy was insane. Then winning goal easily Jacobs.
[10:18] Italian. Italian.
[10:19] American. Italian.
[10:19] Grazia. Grazia.
[10:20] Jacobs. Yeah, let's see he.
[10:22] He We've always been good. But for a country with such a
[10:26] small population, yeah, well, relative to how good are.
[10:29] But we have actually, that's Italian Americans.
[10:32] But there's so many people in America that could represent
[10:34] Italy also. You have to think about that.
[10:36] I know like basketball and football, there's a lot of
[10:37] football, basketball players I. Don't.
[10:40] Know I think Divincenzo the goat.
[10:42] He decided to not rap Italy, by the way, that wrapped.
[10:48] We wanted to. Win something he he decided not
[10:51] to play for Italy. We could have had the raffina.
[10:53] Yeah, Danilo Gallinati is the golden Andrea Bargnani.
[10:56] We'll have to live. We take those, We take those.
[10:58] But we had. Bargnani Hype in 2000 and.
[11:00] The Barilla pasta Bargnani, bro. Yeah, you decided you wanted it
[11:03] to be there. 1st overall pick we had Andrea the.
[11:06] Raptors. The Raptors.
[11:07] Ended up being. Guy was terrible.
[11:09] Yeah, Guy stunk. Whatever.
[11:11] We are a football podcast. Yeah, Yep, Chelsea made CL like
[11:15] I said. Great for the sport.
[11:18] I agree it's good that Chelsea is involved in these
[11:20] competitions. It's been a minute.
[11:22] It's been so $2 billion later they finally make CL.
[11:28] What an achievement for the Chelsea leaders firm.
[11:33] Said this on the live stream earlier that Chelsea have good
[11:37] leadership. I argued they were the only team
[11:39] in the top 12 that actually have bad leadership because bro,
[11:43] first of all in a regular year I think they did they finish 5th
[11:46] or Newcastle finish fifth. They might have finished fourth.
[11:48] Now Chelsea 4th I believe. Yeah, I think they actually
[11:51] finished fourth. So they would have made it.
[11:52] But it's would you say this is a success of a season?
[11:57] Or I think this is expectations. OK, so they.
[11:59] Met their expectations. Well, what did we?
[12:01] What did we predict, actually? Didn't make an FA Cup run,
[12:04] didn't make a care about cup run like.
[12:06] Listen about careless. Conference, they played their
[12:10] beating. But wait, we're going to.
[12:12] Maybe we talk about Chelsea later.
[12:14] Oh no, my God. Oh my God.
[12:16] Brother, whatever it was the success of a season.
[12:18] We'll discuss that later. We'll discuss that later.
[12:20] We'll discuss that later. If this guy wants to speak about
[12:22] it, you're hinting at it. So that would be ultimate rage
[12:26] Bay for Chelsea fans. If you say, well, maybe we'll
[12:27] discuss it later. And then you don't see it happen
[12:30] in. Your power bumping.
[12:31] Skip it. Just I.
[12:32] Know I know firms got it anyway so.
[12:33] Yeah, I do, so whatever. Yeah, but on topic of CL, we are

[14:40] interscore that the squadron pulls up.
[14:44] Turn around. Millie Millie crashes out more
[14:46] with inter scores then when PSG Mama shut the fuck?
[14:49] Up me and Mama were actually rewatching the live stream
[14:52] clips. The the inter Barcelona one is
[14:54] top Yeah, it's one of the funniest ones all all four goals
[14:58] were iconic. Bro bro, I'm getting light
[15:00] headed. No, but the last one I it was
[15:07] no, but they scored and then I'm like, we're going to the CL
[15:10] file. You're just like, shut.
[15:13] Up the other one that was funny. Oh, you're like, you're like,
[15:17] this is the second goal. Probably.
[15:18] Love this club. Barbara's like I fucking love
[15:21] this club. I.
[15:25] Don't know bro I this is all this a new experience the.
[15:27] Billy working one with my favorite He turns around and
[15:29] he's just hopping. Yeah, that was a new.
[15:32] Experience. The live streams are a new
[15:33] experience. Yeah, I'm not.
[15:34] This has always been like watch it in the room maybe like have
[15:37] you guys watching like no cameras?
[15:40] Close the door. Close the door and you just
[15:41] watch. But then when it's like you have
[15:43] to sit in one place and just contain all that energy, it's
[15:45] really. Tough, yeah, you guys might just
[15:47] hear a full sneeze in the in the microphone there recently, but
[15:50] yeah, but yeah, there hopefully the Champions League final for
[15:54] us Inter fans goes better than us Man United fans, you know,
[15:58] like so. Oh yeah, 'cause the Europa
[16:00] League final, wow, what a shambolic.
[16:03] Not even, not even not even from bias POV.
[16:05] I'm just gonna say from a neutral.
[16:06] What a horrible game. Us watching that?
[16:08] I was bored and my team was playing in the finals.
[16:11] No, it's like completely bless you.
[16:12] My team's it's. It was honestly one of the most
[16:17] boring finals I've had I've ever watched.
[16:19] Not just boring, the most boring.
[16:21] Like, not just boring, it wasn't good football.
[16:23] No, and it offered no storyline. Yeah, yeah, there was just the.
[16:26] Storyline was there. What?
[16:27] What storyline? Whoever, whoever lost.
[16:29] Had that failure. All season pretty.
[16:31] Much, bro, they're going to go next year.
[16:33] They're going to still fucking finish 32nd in the league phase
[16:35] and. You know I'm still.
[16:37] Kidding. Honestly right now, just just
[16:40] from a a Prem POV, where do you where do you guys think
[16:44] Tottenham finishes right now if you have to predict current day,
[16:46] next year's Champions League? And in with the job.
[16:49] With do 1 and in and one and out.
[16:52] I mean and depends who they get. I don't know.
[16:54] It's a hypothetical situation. And in if he learns from his
[16:57] mistakes and he bring in some decent reinforcements, let's say
[17:00] another defender, maybe another midfielder, I don't know, maybe.
[17:06] I'm gonna 10th. This is gonna be clipped 10th.
[17:09] 10th maybe? I look at, I look at the quality
[17:12] once again the back line of spurs so. 17th so 17th in the
[17:16] Prem is 10th in the Champions because Prem is actually
[17:18] holding. Champions.
[17:19] Yes, like. No Champions League?
[17:21] Where do you think they're Champions League run?
[17:23] They're a playoff team. Playoff team playoff.
[17:25] I'd say 14 to 1616, yes, but next season they will not.
[17:28] But they. Finish higher in Champions
[17:30] League than in. Prem Next season on the Prem
[17:31] they will. That's all I need.
[17:32] In the Prem they'd be higher than that.
[17:34] All I needed. All I needed but you.
[17:36] Didn't specify. But but Man United embarrassing
[17:40] performance. Honestly, like one of the
[17:42] darkest days we've had in a while.
[17:45] I wouldn't say the darkest. Can you expect?
[17:47] I think you know, because I think we.
[17:48] Oh, darkest days in terms of the club, but like the the day I I
[17:52] felt a lot worse for our Europa League final against the Villa
[17:56] Real than I did. I know you said that because.
[17:59] No, because you said after after.
[18:00] I remember you said like bro, this might be like you.
[18:03] You said like I had the same feeling as when we lost the.
[18:06] Yes, but Villa Real we actually like.
[18:08] I actually had hope, like I actually thought the team was
[18:11] good. This I know the team shit.
[18:13] So every every game that we lose, I'm I'm well aware the
[18:16] team is asked. So like obviously I'm not happy
[18:18] losing a final, but but I I went into the final and I know I
[18:22] always said we're playing Tottenham in the final.
[18:24] We're. Playing Oh, you said it many
[18:25] times. United fucking dog shit.
[18:26] Like we are absolute shit. We we actually find ways to
[18:30] surprise at how shit Man United is every single week.
[18:33] So yes, I was, I was expecting to win, but I was not surprised
[18:37] by the result. I was not surprised.
[18:39] To me it's your darkest day bro, you ended up 16th with nothing
[18:43] to play for. 15th. 15th at 8:00. That's an extra 4 mil by the
[18:47] way. We were at 17th at one point.
[18:48] We got an extra 4 mil dish baked.
[18:50] I honestly that four mil bro that keeps fucking 40 people's
[18:53] job. Keeps the lights on.
[18:55] Yeah, the BBQ is actually still going on.
[18:57] We love a, We love a Shin United.
[18:59] I like a show united. Needs like a united I like.
[19:02] I like a show United as much as the next guy, but and the next
[19:05] guy really likes it. But listen, this is a bad day
[19:08] because bro, it's not like you have anything to look forward
[19:11] to. You can't look back on anything.
[19:13] You're you're, you're. Signing Cunya we're linked to
[19:15] decent players like Yokadesh, Barbara and when your.
[19:18] Whole team Yokadesh now he's good.
[19:21] No, but where I I personally like he's not he's not a no
[19:25] listen. Listen.
[19:26] Listen, we're. We're ironing out or Yokich.
[19:30] We're we're hiding, we're ironing it out 'cause you said I
[19:33] don't think Yokich is a world class player.
[19:35] You said he he was shit. No, I don't think I said that,
[19:37] Baby stream. He's a better Hoyland, I said.
[19:40] On stream you said he's gonna he's.
[19:42] Not a special player. The base.
[19:43] He's not a special. He's not a special.
[19:45] Player they flip flops everyday shit.
[19:48] He's not a special player, there's a couple of 70 mil and
[19:51] he's not worth the wait Couple of.
[19:52] Transfer Transfer tweets change but.
[19:54] He's not. He's not.
[19:55] He's not fucking useless. I said he would score probably
[19:58] 10 to 15 goals. He said he won't even score ten
[20:01] goals in the Premier League. I did not.
[20:02] He said 15, I said 15. Yeah, I said 10 to 15.
[20:06] Like I'm now I'm saying he would score 10 to 15, but for 70 mil,
[20:09] for 70 mil and probably 200 plus KA week, that's not worth 10 to
[20:14] 15 goals. You can find strikers.
[20:17] Nicholas Jackson was 30 mil. That's 10 to 15 goals.
[20:19] That's good value. Yeah, but it's not like I'm, I'm
[20:23] in my opinion, we're better off signing Liam Dilap than we are
[20:25] signing Gilkadesh. But what I meant by it's it's a
[20:27] dark day is you have nothing to show for this season.
[20:30] Most embarrassment finishing Premier League agreed that I in
[20:32] my lifetime that I can remember of Manchester.
[20:34] United this yes. Yeah, Manchester United, Yeah.
[20:36] For Manchester United. Well, what other clubs?
[20:38] Spurs. Spurs.
[20:39] It was the worst Premier League season.
[20:40] OK, sure. Spurs are irrelevant, manager,
[20:45] not that positive. You guys all try to defend them
[20:47] but it's just really not that positive.
[20:49] The team, you guys say you would only keep like four or five
[20:51] players, So what do you like? It's hard to hold on to anything
[20:54] as a Manchester United fan. So.
[20:56] The Glazers are still there. So for that Ameren point, OK,
[21:00] I'll, I'll give you this. For that Ameren point, I, I was
[21:02] speaking to Millie and or was it firms?
[21:05] It was firms actually. And I brought up the exact when
[21:09] when Ameren went into sporting and I realized there's a
[21:11] difference in gulf between those two clubs.
[21:14] OK, glad you do. When he went into Sporting
[21:17] Sporting, I don't know if you guys remember when the fans went
[21:19] into Sporting's training complex and started beating up the
[21:22] players and stuff like that because because the club was so
[21:24] horribly ran, they were wasting money on a bunch of players and
[21:27] the players that were there we're not fully committed.
[21:30] Avrim came in right after that. Which is crazy.
[21:33] So it's the the parallels between club environments that
[21:37] he came into are eerily similar. What do you do in his first?
[21:40] Season that the disconnect between the fans and he finished
[21:42] fourth in the Portuguese league, yeah, which is not good.
[21:45] What were they in the season before that?
[21:47] I think around that also. But Amrim came in, he used his
[21:51] first year as it like analyzing, OK, which which players am I
[21:53] going to keep and build around and which players are not here,
[21:56] like they're here just to collect their paycheck and just
[21:58] leave. And I kind of see parallels like
[22:02] now we're linking Onana out of the club, We're getting
[22:04] Garnachal out of the club like, and it's not Garnachal.
[22:08] He outed him in front of the whole club.
[22:09] He's like he told the whole squad, very natural.
[22:12] You're finding a new squad next year.
[22:14] Wow. Like that's that's like big
[22:16] balls move. Yeah, that's what scares all the
[22:19] other players. Yeah, it's it's like you better
[22:21] fix up or you're not gonna, you're not gonna play under me.
[22:23] What's the source on this? Fabricio Romano, David Ornstein,
[22:27] I'm not sure one of those two which is basically it happened
[22:30] basically you might as well have said direct communication from
[22:33] the club that it happened. So I, I personally think you
[22:38] never appointed Amerem to give him just that's six months or
[22:42] whatever we gave him. You were never going to appoint
[22:44] them just for that. Can I say his first six months
[22:46] are are a success? No, he will probably tell you
[22:48] himself that he failed in his first six months.
[22:50] He did, but yeah, 100. Percent, but there's no, there's
[22:53] no sugar coating in, but we're Manchester United.
[22:55] The standards are higher than this.
[22:56] And I do agree we're not a 15th place team, but I do think we
[23:00] are probably right now in squad, we're probably in 9th place or
[23:04] 10th place. And I think that this summer
[23:06] selling someone like Garnacho for let's say, let's just say 45
[23:09] to 50 million and then you buy a Kunya for 70 million.
[23:12] That's enough EUR direct upgrade. 20 mil direct upgrade.
[23:17] For me the biggest issue was goalkeeper and that front 3
[23:23] because I'm at Diallo. If I'm at Diallo is not playing
[23:25] in the front three. It's literally used.
[23:26] But you also have wing back problems.
[23:28] You have a midfield. Problem.
[23:29] I don't think that the wing back problems are that bad.
[23:31] Like if you signed four players right now, this summer with one
[23:34] of them wouldn't be a right wing back.
[23:36] We have Dalo and Maserati right wing back.
[23:37] It's not perfect, but there's. Feasible.
[23:40] Like it's workable, a transition moment right now we're not going
[23:44] to go from 15th to 1st in one year.
[23:46] So like you, you pick and choose which positions.
[23:48] But I don't understand how much you could spend this summer
[23:50] because you you don't have Champions League.
[23:52] Like where? Where are you?
[23:53] Selling, we're selling Rashford, which is on 300 KA week and.
[23:57] That's going to help. 30 that's going to help a lot.
[23:58] Yeah, but 30 mil and you're taking off 300 KA week and it's
[24:01] 30 mil pure profit. That cancels out Cunha.
[24:03] It's from the Academy. OK, Cunha.
[24:05] No, that's not how. That's not how FFP works. 30 mil
[24:09] straight from the Academy. Straight profit opens up like
[24:11] fucking 100 something mil to spend.
[24:13] That's how you. Say Cunha, OK, that opens up
[24:16] Cunha by itself. You sell gar natural for 50 mil
[24:18] pure profit. Like Jaden Sancho coming off the
[24:21] books. Like there's a lot of money
[24:23] coming off the books. If you, if you're able to sell a
[24:25] Casimiro, if you're able to sell an Andreonana like this all adds
[24:28] up. I really don't think that this
[24:29] summer we're not going to have money to spend personally.
[24:32] If we sell no one, then we will not have much money to spend.
[24:35] And obviously a lot of incomings are going to be based on
[24:38] outgoings, but I'm assuming we're going to get these
[24:39] outgoing gone. I mean, they already gave Marcus
[24:41] Rashford's number out Kukunya. So like I you're, he's pretty
[24:45] much gone, you know so but. It's a shame you won't even
[24:48] recognize your club. I don't want to no.
[24:51] Identity. I don't want to No identity, no
[24:54] English players. That's just wrong.
[24:56] Kobe menu, just no English players.
[24:58] Good English players. Harry Maguire, Aiden heavens
[25:00] actually been very good for us recently.
[25:02] He's actually been very good since he came in 1.5 mil by the
[25:05] way, from Arsenal. Very good deal.
[25:07] At the minimum he's worth more than the 1.5 mil we paid.
[25:09] So it's like a Kalulu signing, like he's maybe not the world
[25:12] beater, but it's it's worth more than.
[25:14] Just do it, yeah. Anyway, I mean, we're always
[25:17] speaking about a Manchester United for the rest of the
[25:19] video, so good thing we and there's.
[25:21] Definitely going to be like in the summer.
[25:23] Definitely. Get ready for that one.
[25:25] That's the majority of what we'll be talking about most
[25:28] likely. But now basically we've seen the
[25:30] damage that this season has done to Manchester.
[25:32] United it wiped like there, there's there's dark periods in
[25:37] your love for your club and this was definitely this is
[25:40] definitely up. There and then on the other side
[25:41] of the coin, Spurs, I mean, Spurs come out of that game,
[25:44] actually, they went into that game the exact same situation as
[25:47] Manchester United. Yeah.
[25:48] And they come out of it with their fans somewhat like happy
[25:51] with the. Season, But is it blind
[25:53] optimism? Oh no, completely blind
[25:54] optimism. Because I spoke to me and Firm
[25:56] spoke to a couple of Spurs fans at an event that we went to.
[25:59] Like they were overjoyed that they were overjoyed that they
[26:04] won the the Europa League. But like it does it come at a
[26:08] cost? Like are they going to be sucked
[26:09] into the Angie make again like like 10 hogwin Man United?
[26:13] Like we we won the FA Cup, yes sure.
[26:16] But we were horrible all season. Well, that brings up the
[26:18] question, does this Europa League win keep his job?
[26:23] I'm not sure. I wouldn't keep it, personally,
[26:26] I wouldn't keep it, but they just kept Paratichi.
[26:28] They've got they're bringing Paratichi back from jail or I
[26:31] don't even know what the fuck? He just suspended that right
[26:33] now. Suspension, 20 months suspension
[26:34] and he's the one who appointed Ang.
[26:37] So I don't know if like, he's gonna wanna keep that going.
[26:40] The thing with Angie is I think he I think he kept the locker
[26:43] room. He knows how to get his players
[26:44] going. Injuries really, really hurt the
[26:46] team and this is coming from an Arsenal fan.
[26:48] I'm defending Spurs. The injury, the injuries
[26:50] destroyed that team. I think Angie's a good manager,
[26:53] but how ambitious are, how ambitious you're going to be, is
[26:56] going to be, if you're going to sack Andrew, will get a
[26:58] different manager. I would go get Thomas Frank from
[27:00] Brentford. I'm not going to go cap Thomas
[27:02] Frank I think would fit that perfectly.
[27:04] He's used to working with young players at Brentford and getting
[27:06] the most out of them, so used to the Premier League.
[27:10] He's very versatile also. The thing about Angie is he was
[27:12] not versatile at all. He had one way of playing, one
[27:14] formation. If it doesn't work, it's kind of
[27:16] like a War Sansi flick. Like if you don't, if you don't
[27:19] fit that, then you're cooked, you know?
[27:21] I would say go speak to other managers, have a backup plan and
[27:26] put Angie on like a six month, like on 1/2 a year, half a year
[27:30] contract, something like that. By the wayside note, I really
[27:33] appreciate that you guys spoke about matches today with no rage
[27:35] B, I really appreciate it. Impossible.
[27:38] I I. I started.
[27:40] I started reminiscing and I was like, you know what these they
[27:43] actually didn't rage me, so I'll point it out.
[27:45] Thank you guys. Impossible.
[27:46] I mean, we got a whole summer bro.
[27:48] There's not really much the rage bait.
[27:49] I mean, we're in 15th place where you're up like.
[27:51] The bottom, it'd be too easy. The bottom of the barrel, bro,
[27:53] you broke the barrel. There's, there's, there's no
[27:55] more. Bro.
[27:55] You're you just lost. The only yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
[28:00] yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
[28:01] Not the podcast for Paula. That's.
[28:04] Crazy. That's all you get for trying to
[28:07] rage Man United. And I see what he's saying.
[28:09] It's, it's like rather how, how more low could Manchester United
[28:12] go? And it's it's.
[28:13] Not even funny. It's it's like there's no,
[28:16] there's no joy to. Like beating a dead horse bro,
[28:18] come on, don't touch you anymore.
[28:19] But but Ange, I think, I think they do like the the squad is
[28:24] young, but how often do teams really make that leap that the
[28:30] squad really needs? Where should the squad finish?
[28:32] Forget Ang, where do you guys think that's first team
[28:35] finishing? I think this first team is
[28:36] actually worse than Man United team personal.
[28:38] Oh my God. Personal.
[28:39] I don't know. I don't know.
[28:39] Kulusefsky. Kulusefsky Ahmad Madison.
[28:43] A little bit worse than Bruno. A little, a little bit more like
[28:48] a healthy Madison is a just a little.
[28:49] Yeah, sure. Healthy Madison.
[28:50] OK, we might as well start fucking bringing up mythical
[28:52] creatures. But that's why.
[28:54] OK, the whole backline. We're dealing with that clear of
[28:56] Manchester United, the whole backline.
[28:58] The carryout is better. They allowed 60 something gold
[29:01] because they're always in Witcher playing.
[29:03] Too. Van de Ven and Romero were
[29:04] never. Happy Van de Ven will never
[29:06] exist bro. OK, in theory, but we'll see.
[29:09] Solanke is better than any striker option you guys
[29:11] currently have. Green OK.
[29:13] But Gil Karach and still have they still.
[29:14] Have Sun, which you guys don't. OK, if you don't want Madison
[29:18] then put Sun in comparison to Bruno.
[29:20] But put Sun in comparison to Cunha, you're cooked.
[29:24] Now we're claiming players capo. Now I want.
[29:26] I also assume that if Tottenham makes, well, they made Champions
[29:29] League, they're going to spend. What on Matisse tell they're
[29:31] going to buy their option? No, it's not.
[29:33] But ideally they do improve. Even Sun Sun is getting old.
[29:37] Like you're going to start looking at replacements for that
[29:39] it. Really felt like almost like
[29:43] like end of the road for like a sun like like a lot of those
[29:46] players kind of like they were vying for that one trophy at
[29:49] Tottenham. They got it and it's just like
[29:51] OK, I, I do feel like it's time for a bit of a like a rebuild, a
[29:55] bit of a rebuild I would say like and, and with the players
[29:59] that he's had like it, it's too much like it's too bipolar.
[30:02] It was too hot, too cold. It was never balanced.
[30:05] So especially with the injuries too, like you, obviously you
[30:08] you, you want players that could stay fit for most of the season,
[30:11] but. I look at Tottenham's squad like
[30:14] they have a lot of numbers. It's not like they don't have
[30:16] the numbers for European football.
[30:18] They have a lot of squad options.
[30:19] It's not. Like the quality?
[30:21] Who do you sell? Because they're all young
[30:22] players like you're if you buy players, you're not just going
[30:25] to buy someone to relegate the the let's say Mikey Moore or
[30:29] something like that. That's a highly rated they have.
[30:31] I hate this bro. They have a good team.
[30:32] Brendan Johnson, Kulu. Son Solanki, let's say you buy a
[30:36] winger, that means you're selling either Brendan Johnson,
[30:38] Kulusevski, you're not renewing tell like.
[30:41] Kulusevski, Brendan Johnson can play multiple positions, which
[30:43] is good. You can put those players.
[30:45] Yes, but you just signed Solanke for 60 million.
[30:47] You have Rich Charleston who cost you 70 million.
[30:49] Oh, rich Charleston sell. Yeah, but yeah, but who to who
[30:52] exactly? That's the problem.
[30:54] Brazil, be a buyer. Brazil for 20 mil.
[30:56] They wouldn't even pay that. Like he doesn't want to go, but
[30:58] I would. I'm sure he would like to stay.
[31:00] He's played in the Premier League I would like.
[31:01] To play in the Premier. League he went from Watford to
[31:03] Everton to to not. He's not a good player in the
[31:06] Premier League. I disagree.
[31:07] But he's shown me. He's just not a top level
[31:09] player. He's a Brazilian international,
[31:11] bro. It's not like he's some bum,
[31:12] like he's not the he's not. I don't even know what to
[31:15] compare him to. He's not Hoyland.
[31:16] He just doesn't seem like a number one option.
[31:18] Yeah, he's not number one option.
[31:19] I, I think, I do think Tottenham have a lot.
[31:20] Of holes is better. Darwin Nunez is better than
[31:23] Richarlson. And Darwin Nunez is.
[31:24] But Darwin. But Richarlison is more
[31:26] versatile. He can play wing, he can play
[31:28] striker like he can play multiple positions.
[31:30] He could. Play them well, no.
[31:31] But Darwin Nunez, what the fuck has he done to to really make
[31:34] you think that? Like he's he's a player that's
[31:36] definitely going to lead this summer.
[31:38] I don't even know where he's going to go.
[31:39] He fits for me. He's like perfect Athletico
[31:41] Madrid striker. Yeah.
[31:44] But. He would definitely score 25.
[31:46] Goals. He's better in Sorla Darwin you
[31:48] is better in. Sorla Hard to sell Sorla after a
[31:49] season he just had. I'm sure if you give Simeonen
[31:52] the choice of Sorla or Nunez, he'd take Nunez.
[31:55] I see him in Italy too. And for who?
[31:57] Even just an inter inter inter. He would actually beat the point
[32:01] in the legal region. I'm not even.
[32:02] He would score 25. Goals bro.
[32:03] You know what? I'll take anything at this
[32:04] point. Bro Sorloff.
[32:06] So, Millie, I heard the rumors actually.
[32:08] We'll get to them later. Well, yeah, yeah, bro.
[32:09] Sorloff scored 20. Yes, but they were all in
[32:12] fucking three games. Still scored 21 goals this.
[32:15] Season. Oh, we knew what this is.
[32:16] He came off the bench and scored a hat trick today.
[32:18] There it is. This guy's the biggest gimmick
[32:20] player of all time. Scored four goals versus.
[32:23] We knew this was good. So what do you well?
[32:24] The rest were all one offs except for LJ.
[32:26] So you're saying besides the last three match days he was on
[32:30] like what, 14 goals? Bro, he was on.
[32:34] He was on 14 goals, yeah. Nice, perfect.
[32:38] Good to know. Yeah, he scored four goals to
[32:40] bring his team to the scored three goals to win versus
[32:42] Jirona. It's.
[32:43] Also super sub, he didn't start the game.
[32:45] It's OK. But look, that was the Europa
[32:47] League final. Honestly, both of these teams
[32:49] are definitely gonna be, like, topics to speak about during the
[32:51] summer. So, I mean, we're gonna get more
[32:53] deep into the rebuild. It's gonna be interesting, yeah.
[32:56] But yeah, we can. We can go in this.
[32:57] Time and a little bit of a preface.
[33:00] Preface. Preface, preface, preface.
[33:03] I don't even know. That's actually a cool.
[33:04] I know I would probably know that.
[33:06] No preface or preface. That is the word that you.
[33:08] Preface it, but then I'm I'm prefacing it like you're.
[33:11] That's the the verb. What do you do when you prepare
[33:13] someone for something like a preface?
[33:15] Prefacing it. I'm gonna, I'm gonna preface it.
[33:18] Yeah, but the nouns. Which?
[33:19] I am, I think I. Think it's the same word.
[33:22] You're prefacing. I think it's the.
[33:23] Same word producing the same word.
[33:25] JB fuck the word the. Producer T unless he plays it
[33:27] verbally out. That's the word.
[33:29] They spelled the same. Anyway, this is a preface to
[33:32] what we're about to do in the power rankings.
[33:33] So we said we don't want to just do a power rankings because the
[33:36] season's over. Like what is this power ranking
[33:38] gonna really be representative of?
[33:40] So what we decided on doing is we're gonna give you our top ten
[33:43] teams of the season that we think had the best season and
[33:47] Producer T. It's preface or a loss, or a
[33:53] loss preface. Why was that so like corny
[33:56] Preface. Producer T.
[33:58] What settings? That's.
[33:58] Producer. That's Producer T's voice by
[34:00] the. Way, he tells Tri GPT speak to
[34:02] me in a sexual, erotic tone. But yeah, so it's gonna be our
[34:06] top ten teams of the season who we thought had the best seasons,
[34:08] not necessarily the best teams. Yeah.
[34:11] And then we're also gonna be comparing it to our first, our
[34:15] first power rankings, which were at the preseason.
[34:18] At the end of the transfer window before the season.
[34:19] Started last preseason so in a long year fellas.
[34:22] Yeah, I know. I don't.
[34:23] Know if there's gonna be that much rage bait?
[34:24] So apologies. If you like rage bait, they will
[34:26] be. No, I don't think so.
[34:28] OK, I'll start. Enter 10th.
[34:30] OK, so say who you had 10th. I had Athletico Madrid 10th at
[34:33] the beginning of the season. Really.
[34:34] I don't think is that crazy of a shout.
[34:36] At the beginning of the season, yeah, I thought they were very
[34:38] highly rated. Yeah, well, you brothers, yeah.
[34:40] I. Had them, I had them high.
[34:41] Very, Yeah, I I have Newcastle 10th right now.
[34:44] Right now. OK, not crazy to say not I find
[34:46] I. Find that's a little low from
[34:48] where? I find that's very low.
[34:49] Yeah, they they finished fifth in the Prem.
[34:51] They want to care about cup, which is massive for Newcastle.
[34:54] And obviously I'm a tune. So I mean, I have to, I have to
[34:57] show up for my, you know, Newcastle and Man United have a
[34:59] massive rivalry in England. So like like the England
[35:02] motherfuckers hearing news are probably like like huge.
[35:05] But I've in my lifetime of watching like Newcastle, Man
[35:08] United haven't really ever been competing.
[35:09] So for me it's not like the same.
[35:12] Now Newcastle is the bigger club.
[35:13] Yeah, but. Didn't Newcastle make some big
[35:16] signings last summer? And where did those guys go?
[35:18] Which which? Didn't they buy a midfielder for
[35:20] like 50 or 60 million? No, they've always had Joe
[35:24] Linton, Tonali and or sold and with you, Manish, no.
[35:28] Let me check, let me investigate this matter.
[35:29] They sold Minte for 40 million. To that I know, yeah.
[35:33] Yeah. But yeah, Newcastle, Newcastle
[35:35] have built a solid foundation for themselves.
[35:37] Yeah, I agree now with CL money. There's scary team.
[35:41] Bro they might be one of those teams that goes in and Isaac's
[35:44] not going. To leave Oh, Elliot Anderson.
[35:46] Yeah, but he ended up actually being good for for not even
[35:48] Forest, but maybe not 43,000,000 worth, but he's been good.
[35:53] But yeah, this is this is a club that this summer is going to be
[35:56] massive for them. They might they might take that
[35:58] next step into being a top. I'd argue like they can get to
[36:03] Arsenal level with proper investment this summer.
[36:05] They're, they're very heavily backed and and you see like
[36:08] someone like Isaac who is unsellable, tonally unsellable.
[36:11] So they trust their players. I, I think honestly next season
[36:13] we could see them in a Champions League spot again.
[36:15] Well. Like what?
[36:16] Similar to maybe what Aston Villa has done in this Champions
[36:19] League. I think they're better than I.
[36:20] Know way back, I think they could actually do better than
[36:22] that, but you could see a kind of run like that where they make
[36:25] a quarter final or semi final, let's say.
[36:27] So they're missing defenders? Yeah, that's why if they buy a
[36:32] center back this year. Well, Buckman was also injured.
[36:34] For a while. Bless you.
[36:35] Thank. You also full backs.
[36:38] For Box Tino Livamento. Trippier no more.
[36:40] Tino Livamento Man City's trying to get Tino Livamento Lewis
[36:43] Hall's having team of the season shouts like I generally.
[36:45] Don't see any flaws in this. Major flaws.
[36:48] I mean, Fabian Cher, he's been good for new task.
[36:50] Yeah, it's maybe. I mean, you probably look at
[36:52] that and you probably say, oh, that that could probably get a
[36:54] bit better. Nick Pope is a good goalie.
[36:57] Yeah, I I really, I really think and even Jacob Murphy and and
[37:01] being like Gordon, if you buy another winger, Jacob Murphy
[37:04] being a bench off, yeah. You've got a.
[37:05] Solid player like an. Exceptional season we got to
[37:07] put. Him on the that's a very solid
[37:08] player to have off the bench. Yeah, maybe, maybe another
[37:11] striker. They're looking at potentially
[37:12] buying another striker to replace like Wilson where Isaac
[37:15] can sometimes play on the wing and striker depending on the
[37:17] game. We'll find the nice young like a
[37:19] young. They want to, they want to sign
[37:20] a lot, potentially so. It's crazy how important the
[37:23] games were for them today because very well could have
[37:25] seen a selling situation in the summer as opposed to a buying.
[37:28] The the reason why I said that I say that slow is because they
[37:31] they finished the season with a trophy and their expectations,
[37:33] which was top five Champions League.
[37:36] So I think. They yeah, but I didn't take
[37:37] really like expectations into this.
[37:40] I did. I took I took you should.
[37:42] No, I don't think like then then theoretically, like Napoli could
[37:46] very well be like number two or three on this list.
[37:48] Their expectations are fucking but.
[37:50] Then their performances haven't been as great.
[37:53] They did win, but they won. Yeah, but their performances
[37:56] weren't. Good.
[37:56] OK then Nottingham Forest could look you be on this list.
[37:58] I think there's a good shot for that.
[38:00] I didn't put them but. No, I don't think so.
[38:02] It's it's this would basically be the 10 top teams of this
[38:05] season for me. Like I ranked the 10 best teams
[38:08] this season. Yeah.
[38:09] And I think Newcastle, even in the Prem, has been a very tough.
[38:12] They've been a top ten team in the world in my opinion this
[38:14] season, yeah. Well, they've been in and out of
[38:16] a power ranking, so definitely. But like a Nottingham Forest,
[38:20] you say, they have argument. I don't think they're a top ten
[38:22] team in the world though, that's the thing.
[38:23] No, but they exceeded expectations by a lot so.
[38:27] Let's iron this out before we get into further numbers.
[38:29] Well, no, it's a mix. It's a mix of I didn't know
[38:31] expectations. To be honest, I didn't really do
[38:34] expectations. I had nothing to do with the
[38:36] expectation. I think, I think you could tell
[38:37] like there's teams where it's like it was a very big let down
[38:40] or was like a failure. This.
[38:41] Yeah sure, but Man City technically had a failure of a
[38:43] season but they're still top ten team in Europe probably.
[38:46] Know any silverware? I mean, they're, they're Mike.
[38:49] They had an equivalent. They had an equivalent.
[38:51] They're my 10. Who was your 10 in the?
[38:52] Beginning man Byron actually was my tent going into the season.
[38:56] Yeah, and I think that was because of AI.
[38:59] Think it was a couple. Of transfers.
[39:01] And Leverkusen was is the manager.
[39:02] Stronger, yeah, and. Company 2 first like a new
[39:05] manager. So I I don't have Man City in my
[39:08] top 10 at all. Either no, but I I feel.
[39:09] They're this season. I do think but there was a lot
[39:12] of things that happened when they were in that rut that
[39:14] really derailed their season. But since then, going into
[39:17] January, February, like you could say they've been on a
[39:21] very, very good form without. Holland for some portion.
[39:24] Yeah, but even with how honestly I think Holland and himself, it
[39:27] was a very disappointing season. Look at, look at I.
[39:30] Know what the goals, I know what the goals, but you have to
[39:32] understand that there's there's. Standards it is pointing.
[39:35] That's final standards. No trophies.
[39:37] They lost an FA Cup to Crystal power.
[39:39] Yes, and it's. Barely made a top ten team in
[39:41] the world. Yes, OK.
[39:42] But if we're gonna do it like that, then we're just.
[39:44] Little Holland scored 21 goals in the Premier.
[39:45] League I understand, but he didn't like did he score in the
[39:48] FA Cup final? No.
[39:49] Did he? Did he score when Manchester
[39:51] City needed him in the Champions?
[39:52] Because of expectations. That's not necessarily
[39:54] expectations. He's he's supposed to be the
[39:56] number one striker in the world. That's an expectation.
[40:00] Because he's proven it already. But.
[40:02] Like I said, it's an expectation.
[40:03] Are we taking expectations into account?
[40:06] Because the reality is like. But the reality is that
[40:08] Holland's the best striker in the world.
[40:10] That's the that's. No.
[40:10] But what I'm saying is power rankings are based on based on
[40:14] inevitability form stuff like that.
[40:17] What we're doing now, is it based on expectations?
[40:19] You say yes, I'm saying I didn't.
[40:21] I didn't. To assume they're not putting
[40:23] expectations. Man City's obviously a top ten
[40:25] team in the world. They finished third in the Yes
[40:26] Not. Necessarily because they
[40:27] finished right around Newcastle but failed to win a trophy.
[40:29] No, they didn't finish around Newcastle.
[40:31] There was like a six point gap or seven point gap.
[40:34] It's peanuts because it doesn't get them first and it doesn't
[40:36] get them second. So it's third versus 4th when
[40:39] Newcastle finished fifth or? 5th, 5th. 5th or third and one
[40:42] has a trophy. I'd rather Newcastle season.
[40:44] I mean, the way that people talk about Manchester City is almost
[40:46] like as if they just scraped into the fucking scraped into
[40:49] the Champions League spot. They did they.
[40:51] Did a last They needed a last last game to do it.
[40:54] They needed the pit. Fulham.
[40:55] If they didn't beat them, they were in Champions League.
[40:57] No, I don't think that's true. Yes, they were tied.
[40:59] With because Chelsea ended up winning and it didn't really
[41:01] change anything, so like so for me.
[41:04] Check, check, because I remember there was a reason why we're
[41:07] watching my. A draw would have got them in as
[41:09] well, no? Yeah, So what if they lost?
[41:11] Then they were. Lost and everyone else won.
[41:14] They would have been out. Okay, well that for Man City for
[41:16] me is very, it's very because your expectations, but yeah,
[41:20] definitely. But they're still better than
[41:22] like they they lost to Madrid in the CL, which is like you can
[41:26] somewhat, somewhat understand. In all competitions, we all
[41:29] season we've been saying Pep, what's going on with them?
[41:32] Where's? This going because the standard
[41:34] is to be first or second or third in these power rankings
[41:37] like you can justify like they're they're not not a top
[41:41] ten team in Europe. Yeah, because if Newcastle would
[41:43] have had the season, sorry, not in Newcastle because we just
[41:45] spoke about them. If let's say Brighton would have
[41:47] had the season, Manchester City just had, we would have been
[41:49] putting them on this list. Yeah, yeah.
[41:51] Because of the standards of the club.
[41:52] But I'm saying there shouldn't be expectations.
[41:54] It should be the top 10 in order seasons you would want for your
[41:59] club. So is your number, is your
[42:01] number one the season, the season that you would want the
[42:04] most in the. You know, if you can fix that,
[42:06] if you can change that as my #10 I have Chelsea because.
[42:10] I do too, I think. Not on my list.
[42:12] Chelsea finish, yes, finish top four in the what I believe is
[42:16] the best league in the world and is in a conferencing final,
[42:18] which they're about to win. It doesn't say much, but it
[42:20] pushes them over a team like Manchester City because
[42:23] Manchester City, it doesn't have what?
[42:25] Happens if Chelsea lose the conferencing final.
[42:27] It doesn't move the needle for me because they're OK.
[42:30] I'm gonna. Well, it doesn't be mentioning
[42:31] expectations a lot. Yeah, well, they should be
[42:33] winning that. I'm gonna be mentioning
[42:34] expectations a lot. But their expectations was to
[42:37] get a top four finish. And I think they've done it
[42:39] successfully, maybe after the last minute and they got it
[42:42] through the conference. OK, but Man City both both did
[42:45] nothing in domestic cups and Man City finished higher in the
[42:48] table. But.
[42:50] Manchester City with a possible trophy.
[42:53] Yeah, but the trophies, the Conference league, if Man City
[42:56] were in conference, they would have won it also.
[42:57] We can't do that for every team if Real Madrid were in.
[43:01] Like Conference league for me, it's like like the.
[43:04] Least relevant if you're if he's a Real Madrid were in the Europa
[43:07] League, they'd win it too. But also the sentiment, yes,
[43:11] However, the sentiment that Chelsea had before, like we were
[43:14] not rating them as a as a team. We were actually calling them
[43:16] failures at the beginning of the season.
[43:18] All this money spent, you better succeed in something.
[43:20] Yeah. They went from failures to OK
[43:22] you you. Did you did what you needed to
[43:24] do? Nobody had success, nobody had
[43:26] them to win the league. Nobody would like they were
[43:28] competing for the League of 1. $1,000,000 making top fours the
[43:33] bare minimum. But I it is it is, but
[43:37] unfortunately that's that's the ex the.
[43:39] Reality of the matter? Like Cole Palmer took a step
[43:41] back this season. Nicholas Jackson did not take
[43:44] the step forward that people expected him to take.
[43:46] He's still a decent player, but no one the people, some of the
[43:48] Chelsea fans that were speaking to were saying, oh bro, this
[43:50] guy's going to be a 20 close goal scorer in the Premier
[43:52] League. Like he did not turn into that.
[43:54] Like a lot of maybe Moyes guys. Saydo's the only positive that
[43:57] you come out of this season. But I think Marescas found the
[44:01] starters though. Now we could actually see a
[44:02] Chelsea identity. Maybe, but that does not mean
[44:06] that Chelsea is currently a top ten team in the world.
[44:09] No, but this is power. He had an equivalent season to
[44:11] Man City, just turn 1, draw into a win and then the exact same
[44:14] season. OK.
[44:15] Just turn 1 draw into a win. But still for Chelsea, for
[44:19] Chelsea, that last season was a like a laughingstock.
[44:21] Yes, but you said no expectations.
[44:24] But I'm not mind, not expectations.
[44:26] I didn't put Man City. Because they are better than
[44:28] Chelsea. Man City finished the exact same
[44:30] spot in the table, but one might have a trophy.
[44:33] One is in a. Final.
[44:34] But they're winning a trophy that Man City couldn't have won
[44:37] because they didn't play in that.
[44:38] Competition. I can't start doing that for
[44:39] every team because like I said, that Real Madrid would be on
[44:41] this list because if Real Madrid played in Europa League, they'd
[44:43] win. If they played in Conference
[44:44] League they would win. Madrid are higher than Spurs.
[44:47] Like like. Spurs.
[44:50] Yeah, like they're not on my list.
[44:51] Spurs, I don't give a fuck. They won Europa League.
[44:53] Like it doesn't fucking matter. Yeah, because we know they're
[44:55] performing. They make CL sure that's the
[44:57] only thing that I. Didn't I?
[44:58] Didn't go off of expectations at all.
[45:00] I agree. Maybe I'll say it as
[45:01] justification as expectations, but my list was made.
[45:04] I I did keep it in mind. I did keep it in mind but like I
[45:07] don't I think my list works with or without.
[45:09] Next season, we're going to have four power rankings.
[45:10] We got to make a. We're making a rule.
[45:12] OK, A. Rule 9 I have Man City and at
[45:15] the beginning of the year I had Barcelona.
[45:17] So the Barcelona shout did not I'll, I'll put my I'll put my
[45:21] hands up. Barcelona was not a was not a
[45:23] solid shout at 9:00. So I'll, I'll, I'll admit to the
[45:25] Barsa Cox, all of you, you little rats that come out of the
[45:29] the sewers, I'll admit I was wrong on that one, but.
[45:32] So now you have Man City. I'm Man City 9.
[45:35] Listen, I we just talked about them.
[45:37] I don't think they had a spectacular season.
[45:40] You can performances. Haven't been that good either.
[45:42] Maybe near the end you could say that they have.
[45:44] They did not have a top three team in the world season.
[45:47] Yes, I agree. All right.
[45:48] But even even in Champions League, we've seen them.
[45:51] They're not a playoff team. They were supposed to be
[45:53] talking. They played Real Madrid.
[45:55] And they lost. Yeah, but they played Real
[45:56] Madrid. I know, but like that's a,
[45:58] that's a buying loss. Once again, it's like the
[46:00] Liverpool argument. Like you could lose the PSGI.
[46:03] I'm not going to 0 lose up, score three goals, bro.
[46:07] Theoretically Juventus. They got destroyed, Madrid.
[46:10] Theoretically, Juventus lost in the playoffs and Man City lost
[46:14] in the playoff, but they're not equivalent because one played
[46:16] Real Madrid and one played fucking PSV.
[46:19] Yes, but it's also Manchester City supposed to be a way better
[46:22] team than you. Yes, but that's because that's
[46:24] why they're not in the top three of the power rankings.
[46:27] I don't know I anyways. Who do you have?
[46:31] Who do you have I? Have Real Madrid.
[46:33] They had a very disappointing. I have Real Madrid.
[46:35] Real Madrid 9 as well. And my 9 previously was
[46:37] Juventus. I had Athletico.
[46:39] And my 9 was lever. Q Trying to trying to just throw
[46:42] in that you had Juventus. But you see.
[46:44] After the after they're met you. Know the biggest I'm I'm telling
[46:47] you, bro, I'm telling actually the biggest, the biggest UV you
[46:50] you're not beating the allegations because the fact
[46:52] that you keep saying the league needs a good UV yeah.
[46:55] And then and then on top of that, you were the only we have
[46:57] AUV fan on the fucking podcast. And he didn't even have.
[47:00] He didn't and have them top ten. Nobody had.
[47:02] OK. And then when you see my
[47:04] previous list and I had Athletico 3 because they had a
[47:07] great Mercato and I based it off of Mercato because it was after
[47:10] the transfer market, then yes, I would have put UVA fuck it.
[47:13] I put UVA 9 because that at the time we all said I wasn't the
[47:17] only fucking person saying it, that they had the fuck.
[47:20] They had a very good transfer market.
[47:22] Really might be a closet. No, now I'm starting to come up
[47:25] with a listen. Listen.
[47:27] My own arm off. Let's say that I'm a fucking
[47:29] Juventus. Listen, I'm coming up with a
[47:30] theory. OK, he might be a closet
[47:33] Juventus fan, because whenever it's time to glaze UVA, he
[47:36] always does. And he says league needs a good
[47:38] UVA. But when it's time.
[47:39] To be on but it. Comes time to glaze inter it's
[47:43] No, we're not gonna do that well this year it's gonna because
[47:45] I'm. Broken my gum.
[47:47] Bro we just found. We just cracked the fucking
[47:49] code. This is the Vinci Code.
[47:51] Bro, I can't believe I'm not gonna buy.
[47:52] It no at heart. I'm not actually gonna buy it
[47:54] into. This remember you that.
[47:56] Deserves a fucking punch in the face.
[47:57] What the? Fuck, you just said.
[47:59] What the fuck you just said deserves a fucking beating.
[48:02] Don't you ever fucking say that to me, OK, nothing.
[48:04] You're fucking #8. No, no, no.
[48:06] Back to Real Madrid. Real Madrid had a disappointing
[48:08] season, we can all admit that. But what?
[48:12] OK, what were your reasons why Real Madrid is that low?
[48:16] They're shit, how about that? Good reason.
[48:18] Yeah. I agree with that.
[48:20] Listen, no, but they don't. Even.
[48:21] The only reason why they deserve to be on this list is because I
[48:24] used context. They did.
[48:25] They lost every old classical. Yes, that's fine.
[48:28] Well, that's not fine, but it's not fine.
[48:30] It's part of the thing. They made it.
[48:32] They made it to every final. They made it to every final.
[48:36] They compete like they were they were what, how many four points
[48:39] off of Barsa? Like, yeah, it was still a
[48:41] strong season from a club, not Real Madrid, 'cause there's
[48:45] expectations there. But it was a strong season from
[48:47] a club, whether that would have been Athletic Madrid or Real
[48:49] Madrid. Yes and no.
[48:52] But you can't see that in the Man City are off the fucking
[48:54] list. But that's that's what I'm
[48:55] saying, because Real Madrid, if you're talking about just.
[48:57] They had brought almost the exact same season.
[48:59] The Real Madrid, Yeah, No. I put Madrid I I had Madrid 8 so
[49:02] right next to Man City. So like for me they had almost
[49:05] the exact same seasons. The only reason why I had Madrid
[49:07] was they they beat Man City I. Have Madrid 9.
[49:10] I have Real Madrid 9. Yeah, but your Man City off the
[49:12] list, Yeah. My my logic real.
[49:14] Man City lost. To real they had literally
[49:16] parallel seasons. But one lost one went to a
[49:19] Chamizy quarterfinal. Yeah, but they who The Who the
[49:21] fuck did Real Madrid play in this?
[49:23] In this round? The 16. 3016, I thought.
[49:26] There you go. And that was a very scrappy
[49:27] game. They beat them.
[49:28] It was very scrappy game and they lost.
[49:29] That was an easy win. To me, the logic I used for Real
[49:32] Madrid 9th is they were in Copa de Rey final, they were kind of
[49:36] in the La Liga race for they actually choked A10 point lead
[49:39] at one point, but but and in they lost against Arsenal and
[49:42] champions. Yeah, so they, they had things
[49:45] going on just at the end, they weren't able to to get to the
[49:48] finish. Line and flick they didn't like.
[49:50] You could not have predicted Flick.
[49:51] Being this good one every time. So like it was.
[49:55] Barcelona wasn't in that league. Real Madrid would have wanted
[49:58] bro. If it was Chavi, Real Madrid
[50:00] would have either won a cup, won the league, won something
[50:03] because Charlie wouldn't have had that era of dominance.
[50:05] Like my point why Real Madrid is on this list and not off of it
[50:08] like Man City is. Real Madrid was there, they just
[50:11] didn't succeed, so that's why they're very low.
[50:13] But but even the performances, we, we just could tell like they
[50:17] weren't blowouts. Like I, I know we said no
[50:19] expectations, but the reality is, is that you brought it in
[50:23] and the expectation was that this team was going to be #1 in
[50:26] Champions League, like we also all predicted in our, in our
[50:30] premier, in our champion predictions.
[50:32] Power. Actually, we had them 1111.
[50:33] Yes. And our Champions League
[50:34] predictions, we had them, I think #1 in, in the group stage,
[50:37] in, in the league phase, we. Did, yeah.
[50:39] So everyone knew how strong Real Madrid was and it just seemed
[50:43] like they they played two or three levels below how they
[50:46] actually should be playing. Like that team you looked at
[50:48] that team, you're like, this team should be winning every
[50:51] single week, no questions asked. But it almost seemed like every
[50:54] game was a dogfight. They needed a last minute goal.
[50:57] They need a 5050 call to go their way, and Barcelona just
[51:00] routed them. Yeah.
[51:01] So just to go off of your point. Yeah, yeah.
[51:04] Like it's a failure of a season. And we realize it now with
[51:06] Ancelotti leaving, Shabby Alonso coming in.
[51:09] All the pieces are there to say that something definitely went
[51:12] wrong. Yes, exactly.
[51:13] And I think next year will be better.
[51:14] Shabby Alonso is a good coach. They're bringing in good pieces.
[51:17] Trent, who else? The Hosen Hausen, whatever.
[51:20] But but it's also like the idea that and you know, this isn't
[51:23] the end of the line for Real Madrid.
[51:25] It's OK, they went trophy list. But it's like, you know, they're
[51:27] they're reloading and they're gonna come back next season at
[51:29] least win some silver, win so. Like enter.
[51:33] Yeah. Who's your number?
[51:36] So wait. Who did you have 8?
[51:38] I had, I have Madrid, but I had PSG at the beginning of the
[51:41] season. OK, Millie, who did you have?
[51:44] I have Newcastle. Newcastle.
[51:46] I also have Newcastle. At the 8th I had Barsa but now I
[51:49] have. Newcastle, it's because it's The
[51:50] thing is like what we spoke about Newcastle was like yes,
[51:53] they they somewhat exceeded expectations in in the terms of
[51:56] like making Champions League, but also winning the Carabao and
[52:00] yes, because they want a trophy kind of like I you put them over
[52:04] like a Real Madrid or a Man City to a certain extent, yeah.
[52:07] But I just think based off like what people thought about them
[52:10] and going into the season and just their overall ability, they
[52:14] they have a very good squad like we spoke about.
[52:16] So I think 8 is fair for them. Yeah, for me my 8th was Bayern
[52:20] old and the new one is Napoli. Oh, I didn't even say my old
[52:24] eight. What was your old 8?
[52:26] Barcelona. Whatever like.
[52:27] I had the 9. Yeah, I had the meat.
[52:29] But one more thing on Newcastle, I was just looking at some
[52:31] results. They beat not anyone.
[52:34] They beat Liverpool to the cup, which is big feet.
[52:38] They have some big wins within the like.
[52:40] Towards the end of the season. They beat Arsenal twice.
[52:43] They knocked Arsenal out of a cup like this, was a team that
[52:46] competed like very well competed.
[52:48] Funny is that the beginning of the year?
[52:50] Well, not the beginning of the year.
[52:51] I actually just recently watched our friend predictions back
[52:53] again and you said the Newcastle will not get points off the big.
[52:56] Boys, that's what you literally said.
[52:59] What was the reasoning behind that?
[53:00] I don't. I don't even know after.
[53:01] Improving the squad. That's what you said.
[53:05] Exceeded all expectations bro. I can see them taking points
[53:07] from the small teams, but what about the big boys?
[53:10] They're not going to take points.
[53:11] I'll answer that question. I'd be interested to see the
[53:13] table of all the big teams versus the, like, Big six.
[53:16] You know, the table always comes out on Twitter at some point.
[53:18] But yeah. The Newcastle, yeah.
[53:21] So I said I have Napoli 8 because I find their
[53:25] performances all season. Bro.
[53:26] Ask Napoli fans, they will tell you we didn't have a great
[53:30] season. I don't know how we won this.
[53:31] Well, listen, I'm I'm gonna keep it with you, I think.
[53:34] I don't think they'd say they didn't have a good season, OK,
[53:37] They were dominant, yes, dominant.
[53:40] This is the weakest Italian champion we've seen definitely
[53:43] in my lifetime of watching for. Sure, I spoke to Napoli friends
[53:45] and my Napoli friends are telling me this Napoli side
[53:48] should have never been near Scudetto.
[53:50] All hell to fucking contact and. This this like this isn't a shit
[53:54] on the like degradation of the Italian league.
[53:56] It's a sign of but. 10 years ago this team would have been
[53:59] competing for top four. Barely.
[54:01] It would have been. It would have been a top 4
[54:03] battle. Not really, no.
[54:04] Yes bro this team wouldn't like this team was worse than than
[54:08] the Roma teams have passed the other Napoli in the past.
[54:11] You have this idea of like this CL semi's Roma like.
[54:15] No Roma. Roma in 2016 was amazing.
[54:17] Yes, but we're talking like if you go even back like 1920.
[54:22] Jekyll was scoring like 20 goals, 25 goals a season.
[54:24] So was Lookman and. Go look at the top scores of
[54:28] city and it's disgusting. It's ball.
[54:30] It's always been like that. No, it's not always been like.
[54:33] That it's always. Been.
[54:34] I mean, if you look at purely. Bro go look at Hugo in and shit
[54:36] those years where he was scoring.
[54:38] Yes, and then look. And then look who was 4-5 and
[54:40] six. You're gonna say, Oh my God,
[54:41] what's this league? But would you not say, would you
[54:43] not say Saudi's Napoli was way better than yes in terms of
[54:47] performances? Yeah, of course, but Yuvay was
[54:49] still in their prime. Yeah, into that, that's.
[54:51] My point, you would be more in a top 4 battle than you would be
[54:54] in a city in a champions. After during that year was
[54:56] battling top 4 was battling top. 4 inter of nowadays or inter.
[55:00] Inter of 10 years ago was battling top four.
[55:02] OK, barely making top 4. But like the the Conte that we
[55:05] saw, the Napoli of this season would have never beaten a
[55:08] Juventus in 2016. They wouldn't have beaten Aroma
[55:11] or Napoli. I agree with that.
[55:13] Yeah, definitely. Yeah.
[55:14] So that's why for me, they're they're, I put them 8th.
[55:16] I said I put them eighth because they weren't dominant.
[55:19] But you got to recognize they won a Scudato against Inter and
[55:23] they kind of say ran off with it just the last day.
[55:28] But it's just a team that they definitely over exceeded.
[55:31] They won that. They won that title a couple
[55:33] weeks before. Yeah, exactly.
[55:35] But well, no, they gave you every opportunity to come back.
[55:37] I know. I know it is what it is.
[55:39] Who? Do you have 8?
[55:42] I have. We had Newcastle.
[55:44] Well, no. Yeah, I had Newcastle 8, but
[55:46] have we done our 7 yet? No, now it's 7.
[55:48] Now I'm at 7. So wait, I'll say mine because
[55:50] mine's Newcastle 7 and I had 7 Liverpool.
[55:52] My Newcastle, my 7 is Napoli. My 7 is also.
[55:57] You had Newcastle converted, so I mean Zernapoli.
[55:59] Who? Who's I'm very surprised we all.
[56:01] Have very things close. I had Bayern at the beginning of
[56:04] the season. I now have Arsenal.
[56:06] Seven. Really.
[56:09] Because. That's that's a little low I
[56:10] find. No trophy.
[56:13] I hear you. OK Man City, though.
[56:15] Yeah, Man City, I had #9. Still.
[56:18] I I'm literally proven, yeah, Arsenal had a better season than
[56:20] Man City. I'm not the baby.
[56:21] But to put them even. They made a Carabao cup semi.
[56:23] Final close is crazy because they went to a Champions League
[56:26] semi final. But it's just it's a repeat of
[56:29] they. They just like.
[56:30] That's your logic with second but.
[56:32] Exactly, I you will not find like Liverpool won the league so
[56:37] they're obviously going to be higher than Arsenal.
[56:38] Man City, it went to Man City 9, Arsenal 7 and then Liverpool are
[56:42] going to be obviously higher. So it's not like I'm I'm not
[56:45] putting Arsenal where they should be in my personal
[56:48] opinion. I don't think that it justifies
[56:51] being above another person who won the title.
[56:54] OK bro, if you if you, if you value trophies to that level, I
[56:57] hope the rest of your picks all take all take that into account.
[57:00] They do, honestly. I had Arsenal higher, but I do
[57:03] understand where you're coming from.
[57:05] Like I I don't because. But I do think Arsenal on paper,
[57:09] like I put them higher because I do think that squad it was was
[57:12] very good. And I do think it's competitive.
[57:15] And I do think that they they have the opportunity to win
[57:18] silverware this season. Obviously like it's it really
[57:23] just depends who you're drawn against.
[57:24] It really depends on. There's a lot of factors with
[57:27] Arsenal I find. They had the good performances
[57:29] against Real Madrid. Champions League, it gave me the
[57:32] idea that like, they really put all their eggs in that Champions
[57:34] League basket at a certain point.
[57:36] I didn't expect them to win it, but I didn't expect them to win
[57:39] against Real Madrid. So it was a decent showing.
[57:41] Yeah, yeah. But dominantly, did you guys see
[57:44] your old sevens? My old 7 was Bayern.
[57:47] My old seven, said Liverpool PSG.
[57:49] Mine was PSG too. Yeah, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[57:52] Who was yours, friends? Liverpool.
[57:54] If I'm not mistaken, firms and you don't even have PS I.
[57:56] Didn't have PSGI, didn't I didn't believe I saw that in
[57:58] Bapid I. Remember, you didn't believe it.
[58:00] No, I said why? Why is this?
[58:02] They have no good players. Dumbbelly overrated.
[58:04] Yeah, dumbbelly overrated. That was another crazy shot.
[58:06] But that was mid season. But yeah.
[58:07] Well, you thought that. Was even worse.
[58:09] You've talked that all the time. What?
[58:10] That dumbbelly was overrated since.
[58:12] It's Barcelona. I just feel like he's a
[58:14] frustrating player. Every time he makes the wrong
[58:16] decision at at PSG. He's lucky to have Luis Enrique.
[58:20] He was an amazing coach. Well, better.
[58:23] OK, well #6 beginning of the season, we can just the brush
[58:26] over this Iron Man United. That's.
[58:28] Disgusting. I know that's disgusting.
[58:31] I mean, you had them third. We ended up finishing four, 16th
[58:34] in the Prem almost. So you ended up finishing lower
[58:37] than this list allows. OK, well now I have a Napoli #6
[58:43] So I have Napoli ahead of Arsenal just because of the fact
[58:45] that they won the league title, so.
[58:47] Napoli ahead of Arsenal. You're actually bringing that
[58:50] like you're truly. So if you guys, if you guys, if
[58:53] you guys, if you guys use your brain, No, no, no.
[58:56] If you want to use logic. I have Arsenal 7 so I have them
[59:00] and I have 5 teams above them, the five league title winners
[59:04] and another team if you want them to.
[59:05] Use your your then you're using it the.
[59:07] Decision. No, I'm not well.
[59:10] What makes Napoli better than Arsenal?
[59:12] They won the trophy. You would trophy, you would
[59:14] rather. They won their league.
[59:16] The issue is that Napoli won a league with Inter in it, which
[59:21] is a very like Inter. We can all agree on talent.
[59:24] Our top three or four team in Europe, they are like, I
[59:27] wouldn't, I don't think that's even debatable.
[59:29] And Napoli beat them to the title.
[59:30] That's an amazing achievement. They don't play Inter every
[59:33] week. Sure, Inter had a bad Syria
[59:34] showing. That that could be true, but
[59:38] this was a very good Syria showing for Napoli.
[59:41] If Arsenal was in the Syria, they'd clearly run away with the
[59:44] league. I'm it's not like I'm saying
[59:46] Napoli are a top five team. Like they wouldn't like, like
[59:49] they would not compete for, they wouldn't compete for ACL if they
[59:52] were in it. What season would you rather
[59:53] have? Napoli, well, he's at home with
[59:56] the trophy. Season next season, right?
[59:58] He's already defending I'm. Not I'm just, I'm just saying he
[1:00:01] would. Rather have a Napoli.
[1:00:02] I'm waiting, coming home with the trophy.
[1:00:03] As a theoretical Volvo FC team, you'd rather win I'd.
[1:00:06] Rather win city odds than make the semi final and finish.
[1:00:09] Second in the Premier League, yeah.
[1:00:12] But at least you come home with something.
[1:00:13] Well, if that's the what it is, that's how you feel.
[1:00:15] That's how you feel bro. It's another like as an Arsenal
[1:00:17] fan, it's another it's frustration, bro.
[1:00:19] Like year after year you end up trophy list.
[1:00:22] Like you end up with nothing to show when you have a good team.
[1:00:25] Like I still, this year was an underwhelming season.
[1:00:28] I still have you. I was a top seven team in the
[1:00:30] world. It just put monopoly above.
[1:00:31] Just seems crazy. Your opinion?
[1:00:34] If you put it like that, like a trophy, a domestic trophy,
[1:00:37] that's a pretty big one for Italy, like I understand.
[1:00:40] Are we giving, do we value like I mean PSG obviously a super
[1:00:43] high there in the that's yeah. But we value a PSG Coupe de
[1:00:46] France. But I'm not necessarily looking.
[1:00:49] So the coup city is equal to Coup de France.
[1:00:51] OK, thank you. I got my thank you.
[1:00:52] That's all I needed. That's literally why I'm saying
[1:00:55] it. I'm saying, do we value a coup
[1:00:56] de France? So Syria is coup de France.
[1:00:58] No, it's not. I'm saying, do we value a coup
[1:01:01] de France? No, I'm asking you the fucking
[1:01:03] question. No.
[1:01:03] So he's saying that PSG should technically have an act like
[1:01:06] but. Bologna is not above Arsenal
[1:01:08] because I'm saying. I asked that because I'm saying
[1:01:11] do we blindly give trophies the precedents over good fucking
[1:01:15] football? City, City I and good football's
[1:01:18] a stretch for Arsenal, but. City I is.
[1:01:20] Not. A city I trophy is not and I
[1:01:23] have Arsenal above Real Madrid it's once again they are the
[1:01:27] best of the trophy list teams. But your logic makes sense, so
[1:01:31] I'm curious to see the the German.
[1:01:33] No, if he's consistent with his. Logically are the worst league
[1:01:36] winner of all of them. Yes, I agree with that.
[1:01:39] So that's my logic. Consists of me.
[1:01:41] Like fuck off. I had, wait, did we say number
[1:01:44] six? My number six is Arsenal and I
[1:01:47] had Barcelona, so Arsenal I put them number six just because,
[1:01:51] like you said, they went trophy lists.
[1:01:53] I would call this a failure of a season to call it a.
[1:01:56] Disappointment like one of four in the Champions.
[1:01:59] League. Still not.
[1:01:59] Finalists like it's not a season.
[1:02:01] I look back and I say that was good.
[1:02:03] Barcelona get value. Arsenal season.
[1:02:05] Where was Inters if they didn't make a seal final?
[1:02:08] Yeah, agreed. OK, so.
[1:02:10] If Inter didn't make a seal final, you cannot look me
[1:02:13] straight in the eyes and tell me that you would have them above a
[1:02:15] Napoli. So Bayern should be above Barsa
[1:02:18] according to logic. No.
[1:02:20] Why One more trophies? Actually, no, no.
[1:02:22] They both won, No, but Bayern, Bayern will see.
[1:02:24] We'll see where you have them. Well, if you're.
[1:02:26] Logging well Bayern Bayern I have them 6.
[1:02:28] Because Barsa was ACL semi finalist so we can't according
[1:02:31] to logic we can't give them value for that.
[1:02:33] We just have to look at their at their league stuff.
[1:02:35] Well that's I have Bayern 6. I have Bayern 6 as.
[1:02:38] Well, I had, I had previously I had Leverkusen at six.
[1:02:41] I had inter. So yeah, a little bit of a
[1:02:43] switch there. Yeah, Leverkusen 6.
[1:02:45] Yeah, I had them 10th on my list.
[1:02:46] Yeah, no, I had them pretty high.
[1:02:47] I was pretty high on them. Chabi Alonso coming in, yeah,
[1:02:49] undefeated season, but did not, didn't repeat it didn't pan out.
[1:02:53] But with Bayern, I do feel that the season really switched when
[1:02:57] it was Leverkusen versus Bayern in the Champions League that
[1:03:01] playoff round where ended up dominating.
[1:03:03] And once that point flipped, then it was like, OK, Bayern
[1:03:07] kind of took hold of the Bundesliga was doing well in
[1:03:10] Champions League up until the quarterfinal.
[1:03:12] So and then they ended up retaining the like getting back
[1:03:15] to Bundesliga after Bayern Leverkusen last year.
[1:03:17] So I do think the the team had holes, but it was a very strong
[1:03:23] team. Michael Alize, one of the
[1:03:24] transfers of the season. So Harry Kane is still on top
[1:03:27] form, but there there are holes. I don't.
[1:03:30] I'm not really fully convinced on company.
[1:03:32] But I think he's cooking. I think we saw the season, even
[1:03:34] against Inter, like Byron had a good chance of winning that.
[1:03:38] Game but are you going into a a Champions League game, let's say
[1:03:42] against a flick or a or who else on the Luis Enrique or a Anzagi
[1:03:47] like you're not going confident even our tete argue as.
[1:03:50] Well, I think, I think Byron has has downgraded through the years
[1:03:54] like you could definitely see. Either, but that that slow
[1:03:57] degradation bro those players, they still have top class
[1:04:00] players, defenders a bit less, but they have top class bro.
[1:04:02] Those attacking options they argue the same other than Real
[1:04:05] Madrid. Other than Real Madrid, I argue
[1:04:07] they probably have one of the best attacking options in the
[1:04:09] world. I.
[1:04:10] Think we did do a, we just can't with them.
[1:04:11] Going far, I think this summer they're going to try to replace
[1:04:14] Sani or at least get someone. Sani is a free agent this year.
[1:04:17] Well, I saw Leo, Leo rumors, but I don't know about that.
[1:04:21] I don't think they will be. I think all they need is a
[1:04:23] couple of pieces in defence and they're a top team and they won
[1:04:28] a Bundesliga which is great. Maybe they could do better in J?
[1:04:30] Shoes, I don't think Byron have the pull that they used to like
[1:04:32] 10 years ago. Well, they attracted Elisa.
[1:04:35] Yeah, not. Verts losing verts like.
[1:04:37] That saying like a like. That sense for.
[1:04:39] Like 10 year 510 years ago verts would have been a lock.
[1:04:42] So leave a let's say, say I'm thinking about leaving Arsenal.
[1:04:44] Let's just say hypothetical situation.
[1:04:47] He's not even thinking about going to Byron.
[1:04:48] He would rather stay at Arsenal than go to Byron. 10 years ago
[1:04:52] that would be fucking absolutely.
[1:04:53] Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. But at least they were able to
[1:04:56] retain like an Alfonso Davies, although they're paying him a
[1:04:59] lot, but. That's why they have to resort
[1:05:00] to paying a bond. Byron's wage bills cooked.
[1:05:03] Byron actually have the worst wage bill in Yeah, but and
[1:05:07] actually Real Madrid's worse but.
[1:05:08] I think real real. Could it be Barsa?
[1:05:11] No Real Madrid. PSG they have all about.
[1:05:14] It depends player right, player image rights I looked into.
[1:05:17] I have a whole, I watched the whole video on player image
[1:05:20] rights. Real Madrid, let's say
[1:05:21] Bellingham brings in sponsorships.
[1:05:24] They get 50% of his sponsorships.
[1:05:26] So whatever he whatever, they're paying him in.
[1:05:27] Salary and the image, the marketing that Real Madrid
[1:05:30] brings is insane. Byron's not the same.
[1:05:33] Byron have I think over 10 players over 10 mil.
[1:05:36] Yes, I'm saying Byron's more cooked than Real Madrid because
[1:05:38] Real Madrid high end. Than Real Madrid is fucking
[1:05:41] crazy. Whatever.
[1:05:42] Anyway, what are we at? We are at. 5 now 55.
[1:05:45] I had liver cues in at the start of the season.
[1:05:48] I now have I. I literally predict I thought
[1:05:50] Leverkusen was going to win the Bundesen and now I have the
[1:05:52] actual Bundesenga winners. I had Bayern 5.
[1:05:54] OK, I I have Bayern as well and I had interfift, OK.
[1:05:58] I have Arsenal and you guys had Arsenal Six.
[1:06:01] Yeah, you had. Interfift or you have interf.
[1:06:03] I had Inter, should be a little bit higher I I had Interfift and
[1:06:07] now I have Bayernfift. Yeah, so I previously had Inter
[1:06:11] at the five spot going into the season and now I have Arsenal in
[1:06:14] the fifth spot. I do think Arsenal's still a top
[1:06:16] five. But we all just are.
[1:06:17] All of our lists are just slight very aside from maybe 10:00 and
[1:06:20] 9:00, but are all variations. I guess it was kind of
[1:06:23] straightforward. I, I think I honestly, it was
[1:06:27] much easier to do like the from 1:00 to 5:00 or 6:00 than it was
[1:06:31] to do 7 to 10, yeah, or 6 to 10 or whatever.
[1:06:34] So I, I mean, with you guys, you, you have the Champions, you
[1:06:38] have the, the German champs. So definitely deserves a a top
[1:06:41] five, but I guess it's just more preference on how you see the
[1:06:45] the club, how you see the future of the club.
[1:06:47] So I know I put Arsenal 5th. I even with like it is it is a
[1:06:52] disappointing season, but they they shown that they are a very,
[1:06:55] very. Tough I have a question if
[1:06:57] Bayern were to hypothetical matchup once again, this is all
[1:07:00] we do. If Bayern were to play Arsenal
[1:07:03] in a Champions League round, who do you think would come out?
[1:07:05] I think over 2 legs this season Arsenal would have came out
[1:07:08] victorious. It's because it's it's company.
[1:07:11] It's not like it's a like if you if you have told me it was one
[1:07:14] of those like all time Byron managers, I would have said
[1:07:16] yeah, but. My issue is that Byron beat them
[1:07:20] last year with basically no Alizee like like which was a
[1:07:26] massive massive like and they're better under company than they
[1:07:30] were under Tuco. They also lost to Inter.
[1:07:34] Yeah, but Inter were a good team and Byron took them to the
[1:07:36] absolute. Yeah, they put a good fight, did
[1:07:38] they? Yeah, but I mean Inter.
[1:07:40] Kind of like Inter scored. Inter scored right.
[1:07:42] Now Inter were always comfortable.
[1:07:43] But it was one goal like it was, it was never, it was never in
[1:07:47] doubt. It was never in like like it was
[1:07:50] never comfortable for Inter. Yeah, I think after that first
[1:07:53] leg, it was kind of the confidence.
[1:07:54] It was on Inter's side, definitely.
[1:07:56] But I do think that if it was Arsenal versus Bayern, I, it's
[1:08:02] tough. I, I feel like Bayern match up
[1:08:03] well to like APSG. But when you have Harry Kane up
[1:08:06] front like it, it's tough. It's I think, I think it'd be a
[1:08:10] close game. Doesn't.
[1:08:11] More a loss or a debt and more a loss?
[1:08:13] Doesn't Kane have a a shit ton of goals against?
[1:08:15] Arsenal, yeah, he has the he's the high person with the most
[1:08:17] goals against Arsenal. I think that.
[1:08:19] Would have been a fun that would have been a fun game to watch.
[1:08:21] Yeah, but #4 I had Arsenal at the beginning of the season at
[1:08:26] 4I, now have Inter at 4:00. I have Inter as well and I had
[1:08:30] Atletico Madrid. I have the four.
[1:08:32] I had the exact same Barber Arsenal previously at. 4 I'm the
[1:08:35] only one then I have I had Byron at 4:00 and I now have Liverpool
[1:08:39] at 4:00. No.
[1:08:41] I think Liverpool winning the Premier League, nobody expected
[1:08:44] them to go. Either in the Champions League
[1:08:46] buyer Inter or in the Champions. League, yeah, but yes, but.
[1:08:48] Would you would you take a coin flip?
[1:08:51] Yes. Out of out of Champions League?
[1:08:52] Yes. No pro.
[1:08:53] Premier League means so much. Small.
[1:08:57] Like so small compared to the Champions League winning a
[1:09:01] Champions League. If Inter on the Champions
[1:09:03] League, they get a number on their they get a.
[1:09:05] Number. So wait, you have you have 4,
[1:09:07] Liverpool 4. Yeah.
[1:09:09] That means he has inter top three.
[1:09:10] But but then. I'll tell you not I'm into 3 but
[1:09:13] it's we probably all just interchange.
[1:09:14] But if you're saying this then inter season is not a failure.
[1:09:17] But it's all dependent on but they're in the Champions League
[1:09:19] final. That's the two best teams.
[1:09:20] If they win, it becomes a success, obviously.
[1:09:22] But if they if they lose. It doesn't matter, they need it.
[1:09:24] But but where would you drop inter then if if we lost that's
[1:09:28] I feel like 4 is a comfortable yeah.
[1:09:30] I keep them where? Keep them forth if we if we
[1:09:32] lost, yeah, no. I disagree, I wouldn't drop
[1:09:34] them, but you guys wouldn't. Drop them #4 and the issue is
[1:09:37] that they haven't won or lost. Right now it's I would take 50%
[1:09:41] at a Champions League rather than Byron's season.
[1:09:44] But for example, I'm just going to go straight into it.
[1:09:46] My number 3 is Barcelona, so I would I would the.
[1:09:50] What are you? On Yeah.
[1:09:51] Why did you go straight into? I wouldn't.
[1:09:53] I would. I would rather Barcelona's
[1:09:56] domestic treble than a 50% shot at the Champions League, yes, so
[1:10:00] that's my logic. But I'd rather a 50% chart out
[1:10:02] of Champions League than a than the fucking Bayern Bundesliga.
[1:10:06] That's my logic. Bro Liverpool.
[1:10:08] So but what makes Barcelona but? Enter Enter.
[1:10:11] If they lost the Champions League final, they would have to
[1:10:14] go beneath Napoli. Bro they had the.
[1:10:17] Best. Champions League campaign out of
[1:10:18] any team. You.
[1:10:19] Can't enter enter no enter G Win the best bro.
[1:10:23] Inter conceded one goal in the whole.
[1:10:25] League yes, G win in the final, they had the best.
[1:10:28] Championship because PSG barely made.
[1:10:30] Don't give a fuck because how you get to there it.
[1:10:33] Matters. No, no, you do matter because
[1:10:35] this all. Season.
[1:10:35] Time Inter Inter brought Inter versus Madden City finals
[1:10:38] brought up. You say it's a glorified Cope
[1:10:40] Italia run, so then it doesn't matter exactly how we got there.
[1:10:43] Here they beat Bayern, what bar CL giants, they beat Barsa, best
[1:10:47] team in the world beat Liverpool, they beat Arsenal,
[1:10:50] they beat Aston Villa if they beat Inter in the final all bro.
[1:10:53] That's not a. Fucking joke about I guess she
[1:10:55] had a good one and that's why their top 2.
[1:10:57] Inters was better. No, Inters was far better.
[1:11:00] I think. Both are equal it.
[1:11:01] It's tough because I think, I think the diversity that
[1:11:04] interfaced was is is difficult. But you're talking about
[1:11:08] champion of Germany, champion of Spain.
[1:11:10] Yeah, to get to the the like, this is literally the
[1:11:13] definition. Of the champion at the time,
[1:11:15] whereas Liverpool was not in form and fucking Aston Villa was
[1:11:19] not in form. Aston Villa was Aston Villa was
[1:11:21] a tough is a tough matchup, but like PSG were the.
[1:11:24] But you guys are you guys are forgetting that Inter could very
[1:11:28] much go trophy list? Yes, I under, but that's why I
[1:11:30] put them for because I I do think that yes, you want to look
[1:11:34] at it from a black and white perspective.
[1:11:36] Yes, we went trophy. We were speaking about this
[1:11:38] before the podcast started. I said if you win Champions
[1:11:40] League, are you a top two team in Europe?
[1:11:41] You said and. I said no because the thing no
[1:11:44] because you have to. It's because it's a 5051 off
[1:11:47] game like Dorman. If Dorman won the Champions
[1:11:50] League last year, would you have said a top two side they.
[1:11:52] Don't have some standards. Inter is the best team in Italy.
[1:11:55] I think we're, we are top four team in Europe.
[1:11:58] We're a top four team in Europe. But to say top 2 like like
[1:12:01] versus Liverpool, I'm not exactly sure.
[1:12:03] Like I do think we we beat Barcelona, but the Barcelona is
[1:12:07] Barcelona top 2. Barcelona.
[1:12:09] Yes, like low key you could argue Barcelona somewhat
[1:12:13] deserved to win that game. Also like that tie.
[1:12:15] Deserved this crazy. Bro if I mean your mouth just
[1:12:17] ran to a corner flag it probably it would have been.
[1:12:19] Done. I know, but that didn't happen.
[1:12:20] It didn't. Happen.
[1:12:22] But but you can't say there's. Grounds to say that Barcelona
[1:12:25] could have beaten Inter. It's not that crazy to.
[1:12:26] Say, but is it is it was. It a part of that we want.
[1:12:29] No. I don't think anyone came out of
[1:12:31] that game and said Inter didn't deserve to win.
[1:12:34] That's true, yeah. I I.
[1:12:37] I agree, but you scored seven goals.
[1:12:39] It's a generation, I guess if Barcelona scored seven goals on
[1:12:41] interim, we scored. You deserve to go through,
[1:12:44] brother. Wait, we.
[1:12:45] Score pens. To to me, to me, the difference
[1:12:49] if you do win the Champions League, Inter surpasses
[1:12:51] Liverpool in my power rankings because sure, yeah, three.
[1:12:55] I value the Barcelona also. No, domestically, because
[1:12:58] domestically you did not do good.
[1:13:01] I'd rather a Champions League than a fucking La Liga Capa del
[1:13:04] Rey in Super Capa de Espano. No, I mean, but look, look at.
[1:13:08] The Real Madrid to do that three times.
[1:13:10] I don't Real Madrid this year, we're not good.
[1:13:13] We know this. Man City losing to Real Madrid
[1:13:15] is a respectable. Loss.
[1:13:16] It's a respectable loss for 9th in the power.
[1:13:18] You gotta look at the context as well, Like Seria was was not
[1:13:22] that great this season. Napoli won it, you know what I
[1:13:24] mean? Like you're competing with a
[1:13:25] Napoli in Champions League. Inter deserves their credit
[1:13:28] because they've beaten, as we said, Barson.
[1:13:30] Bayern a Barcelona in in La Liga has has dominantly beat every
[1:13:35] team. That's not true, pro if
[1:13:37] Barcelona, what else do they have to do?
[1:13:39] Today they would have. Wanted the league by one point.
[1:13:41] Real Madrid choked but but Barcelona beat them twice and.
[1:13:44] You were acting like it wasn't even close.
[1:13:46] You were acting like Barcelona won La Liga.
[1:13:48] It wasn't even close. They won two weeks ago.
[1:13:50] Real Madrid lost every game against Barcelona this season
[1:13:53] and it still came down to the final two.
[1:13:54] Days they still did a domestic treble like to me that's a
[1:13:57] dominant season it. Was very dominant.
[1:13:59] They didn't win a dominant, they didn't win a dominant fucking La
[1:14:03] Liga. Yes, that's how you get.
[1:14:05] There. No, they didn't.
[1:14:07] I mean Real Madrid. For six points.
[1:14:09] Arsenal, Liverpool 10 points. Liverpool had a dominant Premier
[1:14:13] League and it was only 10 points.
[1:14:14] It's only 10 points, but it's the Premier.
[1:14:16] League it was 748410 points. But Liverpool got knocked out of
[1:14:21] Champions League against PSG very early on, you know what I
[1:14:24] mean? Very early, yes.
[1:14:26] Unfortunately, it was PSG who are the finalists.
[1:14:28] Was it around the 16 or quarterfinal?
[1:14:29] Yeah, it was around the 16. Round the 16.
[1:14:31] Then who did PS And then it was Aston Villa quarterfinal.
[1:14:33] Then it was Arsenal, right? Yeah.
[1:14:36] But beginning of the season I had to enter 3 and I said I had
[1:14:40] Barcelona 3. Beginning of the season I had
[1:14:42] Bloody Coat 3 because obviously they had a really good transfer
[1:14:44] market and they ended up finishing third in La Liga and
[1:14:48] then I had three. Liverpool right now, yeah.
[1:14:50] I have. I had Arsenal 3 and now I have
[1:14:52] Liverpool 3. So I just switched.
[1:14:54] You guys had Inter four? Yeah, Liverpool three.
[1:14:56] I have Liverpool four and Inter three.
[1:14:58] Yeah. I just put a lot of emphasis on
[1:15:00] the Champions League. I I really, really think that
[1:15:04] Inter's Champions League campaign was underappreciated.
[1:15:07] Bro as an Interfan every game you're watching of your team in
[1:15:11] the league phase was either a win or draw which was mostly
[1:15:15] wins and Leverkusen was the seldom loss and the only goal
[1:15:18] you conceded in the whole league phase.
[1:15:20] I do think that Inter deserved to be in the final because let's
[1:15:23] you look at back at the league phase, draw versus City, a win
[1:15:26] versus Arsenal, whatever, it's a win.
[1:15:29] So then Liverpool, like when when I speak about Liverpool, I
[1:15:31] can bring up the league phase 'cause they had a dominantly you
[1:15:34] could. Feel like inter of course, but.
[1:15:35] Do I care about league phase? I I but if.
[1:15:38] Part of the season, part of the tournament.
[1:15:40] Yeah, but it's part. Of the It's a season, it's a
[1:15:42] season. I don't care if I finish first
[1:15:44] in league phase or 7th in league phase because it's the same.
[1:15:46] How many? Teams did you guys, how many
[1:15:47] games did you lose this whole Champions League campaign?
[1:15:49] That's one. So 1.
[1:15:51] But we're taking performances into.
[1:15:53] Consideration Liverpool only lost one game in the CL also,
[1:15:56] but it ended up being the one game that they couldn't lose.
[1:15:58] Yeah, but I mean. So what?
[1:16:00] What the fuck do I care? I mean, well, they, I mean
[1:16:03] Liverpool cares 'cause they're out of the round. 4 board
[1:16:05] unfortunately, but they play PSG but whatever, we can do that.
[1:16:08] And they're and they're undefeated.
[1:16:09] And the Knockouts played versus Byron and versus 2 league
[1:16:12] winners. I don't.
[1:16:13] I don't, but I just value that way.
[1:16:15] More I would I would agree with you Paula at the three spot or
[1:16:18] arguably 2. If we won the Skudetto, if we
[1:16:20] won the school then then we automatically higher then I
[1:16:22] would say higher, but we didn't. So like I do dock points, I dock
[1:16:25] points cause of Copa Italia, I dock points cause of Super Copa.
[1:16:28] I think we were inconsistent. The team management, yes, looked
[1:16:31] way too ahead. They were saying game after game
[1:16:33] you go into one game all but we we can't risk these players
[1:16:35] because you have thing in the next game and then you end up
[1:16:36] losing points, you drop points. We weren't as dominant as people
[1:16:39] wanted us to. Be it was very easy to win the.
[1:16:41] It was honestly, looking back, I'm very, very, very
[1:16:45] disappointed and God, I was as soon as Napoli wants to go
[1:16:48] through it clocked and I'm like, damn, we let we let this fucking
[1:16:51] happen. Yeah, this one, this one really,
[1:16:53] really hurt, but Liverpool at the.
[1:16:55] Three, I was going to say it's fair.
[1:16:56] I was going to say that full respect to Liverpool.
[1:16:58] I mean, I was saying the inter, the chimpanzee, whatever,
[1:17:00] whatever. But Liverpool after coming, I
[1:17:03] mean, like, listen, coming from us, we none of us thought that
[1:17:07] they would be able to bounce back after the clop era.
[1:17:09] So Barbara was throwing out sentences.
[1:17:11] When's the last time you ever heard of a team after a dominant
[1:17:14] manager era bounced back with a new a new one?
[1:17:17] He was referring to like, you know, like other manager long 10
[1:17:20] years slot came in with the same similar team to Clop and just
[1:17:26] did it better, better, Yeah, he just had a much better result.
[1:17:29] And no signings. Like who did they?
[1:17:30] Buy no one except no one Pieza. And which one are we considering
[1:17:34] was coming in this year? Yeah.
[1:17:35] Liverpool was, as Liverpool is very hesitant with their
[1:17:38] spending. They were hesitant.
[1:17:39] They're like, we don't know if Slot's gonna work, but he has
[1:17:41] good bones and he used those guys to listen.
[1:17:44] Salah came short of having the best Premier League campaign GA
[1:17:47] season ever, but still, Slot got that out of him.
[1:17:50] Yeah, Klot didn't get that out of out of Salah last season.
[1:17:54] Trent had an exceptional season. Allison had a very good season.
[1:17:57] Van Dyke was back to his winning ways, like slot.
[1:18:00] Slot was really a good appointment.
[1:18:02] And I think Liverpool are going to go on to be even better next
[1:18:04] season with the with bringing in, bringing inverts.
[1:18:07] Well, mind you, after the league phase, they were the favorites
[1:18:09] to win the Champions League. So like that it really showed
[1:18:13] the levels that swat brought Liverpool back to like as with
[1:18:17] from all the doubts up until like now, you you won the
[1:18:20] Premier League. You were the favorites at a
[1:18:21] certain point came first in the league phase.
[1:18:23] It's it's a very good season. It's a very good team.
[1:18:25] You you wish you could have had more because I think with the
[1:18:28] players that they had, it almost felt like they could have gone
[1:18:31] for like a, a double or maybe in.
[1:18:34] Trouble is that they went to penalties with the CL final.
[1:18:38] Yes, I agree and that's. With the team that's looked the
[1:18:40] best in the world. And I didn't dock them.
[1:18:42] I really didn't dock them that much.
[1:18:44] Both 3rd and losing in the round of 16.
[1:18:46] I would have never done that to Inter.
[1:18:48] I would have never done that to Arsenal or Bayern or any of the
[1:18:51] PSG if they ran out in the round of 16.
[1:18:53] I would not they they wouldn't even be touching the top five if
[1:18:55] they went out in the round of 16.
[1:18:56] If Liverpool would have won that game, let's say against PSG, we
[1:19:00] probably wouldn't even have PSG like in the top 6 or 7.
[1:19:04] Yep. That's what I'm saying.
[1:19:05] They win the Prem, yeah. We they've lost in the round of
[1:19:08] 16 and. They like they won the rinky
[1:19:09] these two teams. Were equal level.
[1:19:11] It's just PSG ended up having a A better penalty shootout.
[1:19:15] Yes, but that's why Liverpool deserved to be third.
[1:19:17] Yeah, that's why I have Liverpool second.
[1:19:19] Anyway, Liverpool is a very scary project.
[1:19:21] Frimpong. I know you guys spoke about it
[1:19:23] on the last podcast. Frimpong just just Verts.
[1:19:27] I mean, Verts isn't here we go, but it's basically at the finish
[1:19:29] line. Bag though. 150 mil.
[1:19:32] Whole league guacamole. What would you guys give as a
[1:19:35] grade for the verts transfer to Liverpool A plus.
[1:19:41] It gotta be in the A's. It's a plus.
[1:19:43] There's this is a generational talent.
[1:19:46] I mean, it's as generational as they come.
[1:19:47] I've I've said he's better Muziala.
[1:19:49] Imagine getting Muziala for 150 mil.
[1:19:51] You wouldn't. You wouldn't cause Muziala is a
[1:19:53] better talent than Florian no? Because Florian inverts plays
[1:19:56] out liver accusing. If Florian Inverts was not
[1:19:57] buying you would not even be getting him for 150 mil.
[1:20:00] So Liverpool is paying the price for the best German talent in
[1:20:03] the world right now? Yes, I think it's warranted.
[1:20:05] Whether he fits the system or not.
[1:20:07] I think Arne Sloth is kind of cooking even with Frimpong I
[1:20:11] we'll see if he plays Cam or like a left wing position.
[1:20:13] I'm I'm not sure how that's going to go.
[1:20:15] But I'm going to be hesitant and say B plus because for €150
[1:20:19] million there needs to be a lot. Is it pounds or EUR?
[1:20:22] EUR, OK, that's at least better. But there's a lot of
[1:20:25] justification that needs to be had for 150 million, maybe what
[1:20:28] 15,000,000 in wages. I don't think it'll go much
[1:20:31] higher than that. This, this is one of the best
[1:20:33] talents in the world, and unfortunately that's just the
[1:20:35] price you have to pay. It's a physical league.
[1:20:37] Yeah, the age. He's not a physical player.
[1:20:39] Yes, he is bro. This guy.
[1:20:41] This guy has this guy has the burst of pace and what's
[1:20:43] incredible about verts is that he doesn't even need the
[1:20:46] athleticism. He has the athleticism, but he
[1:20:48] doesn't even need it. So this is this is honestly, I'm
[1:20:52] going to say it this this is a player that like could have
[1:20:54] like, I'm not going to say the peak, but like a Luca Modrich
[1:20:58] level career where you can, you can go play till 383940 years
[1:21:03] old. I'm already going to call it
[1:21:04] verts will be playing till that age. #10's never end up doing.
[1:21:06] That, but The thing is that he's not a complete #10 He can play
[1:21:10] center mid, he can play like. That's like saying Modrich 10
[1:21:12] years when he won the Champions League, the first Champions
[1:21:15] League, he's only a #10 they bought him to be an attacking
[1:21:17] midfielder. Ended up becoming deeper and
[1:21:19] deeper and deeper as he aged. It's like or schools.
[1:21:23] Schools was an attacking midfielder also.
[1:21:25] I think you're gonna see that with Verts.
[1:21:27] I don't, I think especially in the first season, people have to
[1:21:31] level their expectations because 150 million, all those wages, I
[1:21:34] don't think he'll right off the start be, I don't know.
[1:21:37] How many GA do you think justifies that price in the
[1:21:40] first season? In the Prem.
[1:21:42] Or at least 30 GA no 25 pumps, 20 no in the Prem, 25 GA in the
[1:21:47] in the first season. Well, I mean.
[1:21:48] I think he'll do that. I I think he's going to be a
[1:21:51] player of the season nominee next year at least.
[1:21:53] Yeah, I agree. That's really high.
[1:21:54] I think this this shows intentions of Liverpool.
[1:21:57] Liverpool just cemented themselves as another.
[1:21:59] So 550, yeah, the families forgot about Trent leaving.
[1:22:03] Like it's like, Oh yeah, or whatever that Trent.
[1:22:05] Bro Frimpong inverts in in in in the first.
[1:22:08] Not even the the transfer hasn't even opened.
[1:22:10] And that that dual dominated Bundesliga.
[1:22:12] So we'll see how they fare in the Prem.
[1:22:15] Like if they go get like a Kurt Catch catch as well.
[1:22:18] Bro, you just created a super team, yeah?
[1:22:20] No, it's a very. Personal You have 10 minutes to
[1:22:22] respond. Yeah, no, that's, that's crazy.
[1:22:23] Two or three 2-3 new signings, 2-3 new moves, and all of a
[1:22:26] sudden Liverpool are arguably going into the next season as
[1:22:30] the favorites for Champions League.
[1:22:31] We're going to. Get to be some Mandy and and
[1:22:33] Marino, yeah? What?
[1:22:36] What grade are you giving you? I got to give this an A I'm, I'm
[1:22:39] not going to say A+ just yet, but this is as close of a
[1:22:42] guarantee as you could find really outside of the Premier
[1:22:44] League really, because you the only really guarantees that you
[1:22:48] could say are like an Mbappe or even a Yamal.
[1:22:51] But Wurtz, you're looking at the Musialis, the Musiala level
[1:22:55] talent that coming into the Prem.
[1:22:57] I'm excited to see what he could do.
[1:22:59] I'm going to say a. Better or worse than Cole Palmer
[1:23:01] next season? Better, better.
[1:23:02] He's a better player than Cole Palmer.
[1:23:05] But this is the best German talent.
[1:23:06] But this is the face of German football, right?
[1:23:07] And. Cole Palmer has never played
[1:23:08] more than one game a week. I mean if you consider Man City
[1:23:11] like one game a week, but even this year he didn't play 1.
[1:23:14] He played one game a week because he didn't even play in
[1:23:16] conference league basically. I don't even think they called
[1:23:18] him up for the. They didn't, yeah.
[1:23:19] They didn't even call him up on the team sheet for.
[1:23:21] Well, for for group in the in the knockouts they did but.
[1:23:25] Which is amazing. Yeah.
[1:23:26] Anyway, where, where were we? I think we're number.
[1:23:28] Number two, well, I said Liverpool #2.
[1:23:31] I'd rather I me personally, I'd rather win the Prem than when La
[1:23:35] Liga. Who did you have at #2?
[1:23:39] I had Liverpool. Oh, I had, I had Man City at #2.
[1:23:42] I also had Man City at 2:00. Yeah, I had Man City at 2:00.
[1:23:45] Me too. I think we all can today leave
[1:23:46] the Man City at #2 that. That was a kind of a dud.
[1:23:49] I'm not going to. And who do you guys currently
[1:23:50] have? Currently has to be PSG in my
[1:23:52] opinion. I have PSG.
[1:23:53] Yes, I have PSG as well. Yes, Tool.
[1:23:55] Yes, If you look at the whole season, the beginning of the
[1:23:58] season, we've all talked. About that what the fuck?
[1:24:00] I thought we were all going to agree.
[1:24:02] We we all saw the beginning of the season that I know you.
[1:24:04] Have them as one. What the fuck do you mean?
[1:24:07] The way I have them as one. That's that's crazy to.
[1:24:09] Me. That is crazy.
[1:24:10] That's crazy. I have them on one.
[1:24:12] No, that's insane. What is?
[1:24:14] What is your reason I. Have bar side three, I have
[1:24:16] Liverpool like. Three.
[1:24:17] Yeah, your reasoning. What is your reasoning?
[1:24:19] To have PSG first, yeah, PSG is like enter in a Champions League
[1:24:23] final about to get their first Champions League ever.
[1:24:27] They beat three Premier League teams in the process.
[1:24:30] Bro that is like a what the what the fuck else do PSG need to
[1:24:32] beat with me #1 like they, they they won't win a quadruple.
[1:24:35] Like they literally have to win a domestic trouble.
[1:24:38] I didn't know all of a sudden we're rating Coupe de France.
[1:24:40] I know, but. You could only you can.
[1:24:42] You can only win if you won every.
[1:24:44] Game they need to win. So like there's no negatives
[1:24:46] from the league? There's no negatives from the
[1:24:47] league unless they want to defeat it.
[1:24:48] They won the. League in fucking three months.
[1:24:50] Ago. I know, I know.
[1:24:51] That's. Yeah, I understand.
[1:24:52] But we all know that the level of PSG is miles and miles clear
[1:24:56] of everyone else in Liger. Like I'm sorry that Barcelona
[1:25:00] had a tougher. But they dominated all the Prem
[1:25:01] teams also in Champions I. Get that?
[1:25:03] But Barcelona had a tougher time getting that domestic trouble,
[1:25:07] if we're gonna be honest here. They barely won La Liga.
[1:25:11] But you can't. You have to stop.
[1:25:12] It's. Four points barely win the
[1:25:14] league. You look at points.
[1:25:15] Brother, they're they were the highest scoring team.
[1:25:17] Real Madrid were not good this year.
[1:25:18] We all know Real Madrid were not good this year.
[1:25:21] You change one, you change one classical result to a Real
[1:25:24] Madrid win and it's a fucking one point difference.
[1:25:27] But but they lost. It's actually Real Madrid win
[1:25:29] the league. A stupid hypothetical.
[1:25:32] Oh, what a stupid hypothetical change one result and then liver
[1:25:35] Barcelona are not you hear yourself.
[1:25:36] But we live in real life, OK, result.
[1:25:39] We live in real life. 2 results. One's, one's one's looking at a
[1:25:42] quadruple, A historic quadruple. And it's gonna be great for
[1:25:46] them. We're not denying that.
[1:25:47] They could actually win a but I didn't know trophies if they win
[1:25:50] Club World. But they right now nobody has
[1:25:52] won a champion. Yes, you understand it's a 5050
[1:25:54] has won a champion. I'd rather a domestic treble
[1:25:56] with a 50% chance of winning a Champions League or a domestic
[1:25:59] treble with A50 with losing in the semifinal.
[1:26:03] I understand, but Barcelona not only did well in the league
[1:26:06] phase but during La Liga as well.
[1:26:08] They would. But name me their hardest.
[1:26:12] Opponent you guys You guys are mentioning Champions League a
[1:26:16] lot. Barcelona had a generational
[1:26:18] game against Inter and and and needed.
[1:26:20] They lost OK, but Real Madrid lost those games.
[1:26:23] I agree. Results if they change one
[1:26:25] result against Inter, all of a sudden bars are undisputed #1.
[1:26:28] OK, so you guys want to use the don't change any result.
[1:26:31] Don't change any results. Right now, so we're not changing
[1:26:34] any results. One has a domestic trouble with
[1:26:36] no chance at Champions League. One has a domestic trouble with
[1:26:38] a chance at. Champions.
[1:26:39] But that's as you valuing the you are valuing the troubles
[1:26:42] that they have won as exactly equal.
[1:26:44] No, you cannot do that. You're that I'm in between, I'm
[1:26:48] in. I can't do that.
[1:26:49] They decided to beat the Premier League winner.
[1:26:52] Get that dominantly over 2. Games and that's why they went
[1:26:55] to pens, but it was dominant. That's why PSG is second and I
[1:26:57] think it's it's uncontested second.
[1:26:59] The the difference between 2nd and 3rd is very.
[1:27:01] Glaze is crazy, not Glaze is crazy.
[1:27:04] It's not glaze bro the second blaze as if I put them first
[1:27:07] because they have them. Belly and Desiree do it.
[1:27:09] Weren't we reading? Weren't we reading the Coupe de
[1:27:11] France? The path dunker fuck do I care
[1:27:15] about so. You're just adding the final
[1:27:18] final. Would you not say it's a 5050?
[1:27:21] Enter literally made it to 4th place on this fucking list just
[1:27:24] by being an F. 20 of Arsenal, where do you have Arsenal?
[1:27:28] 6th OK, you 6th Where do you have Liverpool?
[1:27:32] 3rd. 3rd. They beat both of those teams to
[1:27:35] get to this final. And that's why they put them
[1:27:36] second. And that's why they're higher.
[1:27:38] Than that over 2 legs both. Of them I don't understand,
[1:27:39] they're higher. Than they we don't have a team
[1:27:42] that Barsa beaten Champions League on this list.
[1:27:45] I understand, but Barcelona? No, we OK, they be Bayern in
[1:27:48] fucking league face. Yeah, what do I care?
[1:27:49] Fucking might as well beat the fucking But you.
[1:27:52] But you that's that's Vesta. Yeah, but you?
[1:27:55] Diminishing whatever Barce has done like nitpicking.
[1:27:58] OK Bayard. Oh yeah, it means nothing the.
[1:28:00] First game they played against a good team in Champions League,
[1:28:03] they lost. I understand Real Madrid were
[1:28:04] not at the level that this year domestically was.
[1:28:07] At that level we had them fucking 8.
[1:28:10] OK, but you have watched Barcelona and you?
[1:28:13] I could. They're good brother.
[1:28:14] They were. He's the best team in the world.
[1:28:17] Barbara, who's the? Reason for thinking this.
[1:28:20] OK, well. Who's The Who has been the best
[1:28:24] coach in the world this season? Luis Enrique.
[1:28:26] You just switched because of PSG.
[1:28:28] Now you have been saying flick. We've all been saying Flick.
[1:28:31] Both to the fucking we might not you said might actually come out
[1:28:34] of the tick as the tick as this podcast coming out.
[1:28:36] Go to the boxes bro. I literally said but that's a
[1:28:39] two week switch because two weeks prior that you were saying
[1:28:41] flick the entire season. Who Who has had the best?
[1:28:45] While Barstow is still in Champions League.
[1:28:46] Yes, but they lost. So what the manager, The best
[1:28:49] manager of the world switches and yeah, they.
[1:28:52] Lost and one beats fucking Arteta's arsenal like.
[1:28:54] Who has the best front three in the world?
[1:28:57] Was that Real Madrid? OK Oh my God.
[1:29:00] Brother, this season, Come on, I'm talking about this season,
[1:29:02] PSG. No, no, it's not.
[1:29:04] That's not what you guys said. That's not what you guys said.
[1:29:07] Bayern, we're switching agendas just to switch it's.
[1:29:09] Probably Bayern. Brother, let me.
[1:29:11] Stop switching agenda I we have Tik toks about this.
[1:29:15] We all said Barcelona. Yeah, go, go.
[1:29:17] Find the TikTok. I don't have my phone.
[1:29:19] We all said Barcelona, we said manager of the year is Flick.
[1:29:23] Give them credit, they're number.
[1:29:24] Words. You're putting words in my
[1:29:26] mouth. Crazy.
[1:29:27] I I'm pretty sure I I put Bayern as the best front 3.
[1:29:31] Who's your bound door winner? Who's your bound door winner,
[1:29:34] Yamal? OK, So what?
[1:29:35] A bound door winner on a team that's third in your power
[1:29:38] rankings? How does that make sense?
[1:29:40] So you have to be the best team in Europe to win the Balandor,
[1:29:44] is my thinking. I'm just saying, let me to.
[1:29:46] Have a Balandor winner. You need to be the best.
[1:29:47] Winner. So Messi OK, when Messi won the
[1:29:49] Balandor and Betsy, Barcelona was the best team in the world
[1:29:52] every year, right? Yes.
[1:29:53] No, you fucking idiot. No, they weren't.
[1:29:57] In 2019, when Barcelona lost the little people, weren't they the
[1:30:00] best team in the world? You know they weren't.
[1:30:02] Use the one time that Messi made in China 1.
[1:30:04] Time no Stop being a fucking idiot.
[1:30:06] So when he starts mocking, he lost.
[1:30:08] Yeah, sure. Yeah.
[1:30:09] Yeah, so I don't you bring. Up you bring up facts.
[1:30:11] I literally bring up a fact that.
[1:30:13] Come and then you start mocking. Why?
[1:30:14] Why do you start mocking? Because you don't have argument
[1:30:16] stupid K bro, keep it up stupid. Keep it up with your great.
[1:30:19] Argument I think Barcelona this season I I have shown.
[1:30:22] Like nice Champions League buddy.
[1:30:23] OK, yes, I get it. Barcelona, you fell into the PR
[1:30:28] gimmick that they put on these fucking rats that pull up to our
[1:30:31] comments every single fucking week.
[1:30:32] It's not like gimmick. Brother, it's like they fell
[1:30:34] into the gimmick. They beat they beat Dortmund a
[1:30:36] couple times. They beat Benfica fucking four
[1:30:38] times and then it's we're the best team in the world.
[1:30:41] No, my brother, there were cracks that show they lost
[1:30:43] against Monaco. Are we going to bring that?
[1:30:45] Are they tied Monaco, sorry in the leaf or did they win that
[1:30:47] game? I don't remember.
[1:30:48] I don't even remember but Barcelona showed cracks all
[1:30:53] season 2. Cracks for. 1st we lost the.
[1:30:56] Girona. But.
[1:30:58] An. Arsenal.
[1:30:59] So what happened to the on the walk?
[1:31:01] They beat Arsenal twice. Sure.
[1:31:02] Good, good. So are we doing a revision of
[1:31:04] the whole season or where they stand today?
[1:31:06] Because where they stand today is one team as a treble with a
[1:31:08] chance at a Champions League. It's a season, a historic
[1:31:10] quadruple. And it's great. 1 is a domestic
[1:31:14] treble that they've done 47 times.
[1:31:15] No, but not in the last 10 years.
[1:31:17] Barcelona have fucking 27 of these trebles in their history.
[1:31:20] Were you expecting? Were you expecting PSG to win,
[1:31:23] to win Liger and Good de France? I was.
[1:31:26] Well, actually I wasn't, but you guys were at least.
[1:31:29] Once again, I said nothing about expectations.
[1:31:31] My thing has nothing to do with. You you're lucky then why?
[1:31:34] Because obviously your expectations were that PSG Wendy
[1:31:37] wait, wait and could different did.
[1:31:39] You predict the window. Yeah, you got me.
[1:31:41] Not say. I did have much say.
[1:31:43] Yeah, you. Literally, predicted Bart Take
[1:31:45] the Windley Garn. I want it to be different there.
[1:31:47] You didn't have PSG. In your top 10 in your fucking
[1:31:49] power ranking, Yeah, at the beginning of the season, But
[1:31:52] according to your expectations, Yeah, You're not voting
[1:31:54] according to your expectations, bro.
[1:31:55] K sure that that's power ranking but The thing is that they did
[1:31:58] lose in BAPE. Didn't have PSG as this top 10.
[1:32:01] Team. They they did lose in BAPE and
[1:32:03] they didn't, they didn't do better.
[1:32:04] Listen, I'm going off of my thinking, whose season would I
[1:32:07] rather have? I would rather have the PSG.
[1:32:10] How many trophies have they won, 333?
[1:32:12] I'd rather have the. Firm.
[1:32:13] That's Liger and Coupe de France.
[1:32:15] What's the third? I think they want.
[1:32:17] The Sures Coupe de Chevalier. Yeah, they want.
[1:32:20] Oh. So Cooper Coupa de Espanos, a
[1:32:22] massive fucking trophy, right? Yeah, sure, buddy.
[1:32:25] Well, I mean that at this point we're just arguing over what's
[1:32:27] worth more. Like no.
[1:32:28] No, like they're like put OK, everyone put your put your
[1:32:32] trebles on the table. PSG puts their treble, Barsa
[1:32:35] puts their treble. Now I give one of these two
[1:32:37] teams the opportunity to win a Champions League, a fucking
[1:32:40] Champions League, Yes. And PSG is the only one that
[1:32:42] could put something on the yes, But would you?
[1:32:44] Therefore I put PSG. I'd rather treble with a 50%
[1:32:47] chance of winning Champions League than a quadruple.
[1:32:49] Easier treble sure, but I'll take the chance at the quadruple
[1:32:53] then. What's harder?
[1:32:55] Treble, but not that much harder, but a harder treble and
[1:33:00] no chance at champions. League that much harder.
[1:33:02] The Pierre Barts are not fucking PS like P.
[1:33:05] Real Madrid were not that good this season.
[1:33:08] But they were. But it was not a good.
[1:33:10] But they were. Exactly.
[1:33:11] That's embarrassing. No, because you're just saying
[1:33:14] Real Madrid are shit. They were off by one point.
[1:33:16] Real Madrid are shit. You went real.
[1:33:18] Madrid good this season? What's Real Madrid good this
[1:33:20] season if? We're gonna still was Real
[1:33:21] Madrid. Good this season?
[1:33:22] How? Good is the Liga's bottom of the
[1:33:23] table. Was Real Madrid good this
[1:33:24] season? In La Liga, who's?
[1:33:26] Better Arsenal. Arsenal demolished polished Real
[1:33:29] Madrid. Real Madrid was great in LA.
[1:33:31] Liga it looked like, Barcelona it looked like they weren't even
[1:33:33] on the same pitch. So for me, Arsenal, they might
[1:33:37] actually be fucking closer to Arsenal than to PSG.
[1:33:39] Barcelona. Now you're rage baiting.
[1:33:41] Yeah, there you go. Who knows, bro?
[1:33:43] Next topic. What's the next?
[1:33:44] What do we? Have to do here the top one, the
[1:33:46] number one. Who knows?
[1:33:47] Barsa one is Bob, but we I came into this, I came into the
[1:33:50] season. Think of Real Madrid.
[1:33:51] Yeah, where my one? Yeah, Real Madrid where my one I
[1:33:53] PSG one they look. Like the most guaranteed thing
[1:33:56] in the world. I thought we were all gonna have
[1:33:58] PSG 1 and it wasn't I. Was sure of it.
[1:34:00] I thought you were the only difference with Liverpool.
[1:34:02] Had two in bar three because you want to hate on Barcelona.
[1:34:05] No, for me, winning a Prem is harder than winning a fucking La
[1:34:08] Liga, especially this year. Yeah, where there's fucking.
[1:34:11] I get it. The the thing about the Prem is
[1:34:13] that there's six teams that can win La Liga.
[1:34:15] There's two. And the one other team that
[1:34:17] could win was garbage. So in your logic, Liverpool had
[1:34:20] a more dominant season than Barcelona?
[1:34:22] They lost the PSG in the round of 16, which is in in pens.
[1:34:25] My number one they lost to #1 on pens.
[1:34:28] They lost the Carabao Cup final in on like they lost the final
[1:34:32] in the last minute is Liverpool. Is Liverpool a more dominant
[1:34:35] team than Barcelona? I think it's very comparable.
[1:34:39] Yes, I think that's I think that's I.
[1:34:41] Got my answer in the pause, but yeah.
[1:34:43] I think that's very comparable. You put you put Liverpool above
[1:34:45] Barcelona. Yeah, I think it's very
[1:34:47] comparable. I'd probably take Liverpool I
[1:34:50] think if they played in around the six you're.
[1:34:52] Skating. You know you are.
[1:34:53] Bro OK I honestly just to prove my point.
[1:34:57] Like I hope Inter get absolutely fucking demolished by PS in the
[1:35:01] final. Instead like just.
[1:35:02] To prove my. Points why like?
[1:35:04] Just to prove my. Point.
[1:35:05] But then let's say because. Then if that happens.
[1:35:07] But you're gonna ask. But I've been to the wig.
[1:35:09] No, bro. You guys rage baited me and to
[1:35:12] fucking. Yeah, but that's what I was
[1:35:15] gonna ask you. I was gonna say I was gonna, I
[1:35:18] was gonna ask that and I was gonna say, look, if PSG ends up
[1:35:21] winning the Champions League, then I would agree with you.
[1:35:23] PSG obviously deserved to be first.
[1:35:25] They have a coin flip right now. Yes, but if Inter ended up
[1:35:28] winning the Champions League, then you could, I could arguably
[1:35:30] say, well, listen, Barsa ended up losing a 5050 match to the to
[1:35:34] the Champions, to the Champions League winners.
[1:35:37] Like that's respectable. All but it, but if but OK.
[1:35:40] But if Liverpool but Liverpool? Liverpool lost in the Champions
[1:35:44] League, Yes, not even, not even in extra time.
[1:35:47] They lost in pens to which is literally a coin flip.
[1:35:51] Not they didn't get out played to PSG who right now if you were
[1:35:56] to look at betting odds are probably favorites for the
[1:35:58] Champions League. They are.
[1:35:59] So that's who that's who. Liverpool lost to Barcelona lost
[1:36:04] to Inter. So are you saying which is still
[1:36:06] a good team? I have them 4th but they lost to
[1:36:08] Inter. OK, I actually I would actually
[1:36:14] prefer to celebrate intervals by myself and not with you in.
[1:36:17] A fucking wig. And a shitty shirt if that would
[1:36:20] be OK. With you, No, no.
[1:36:22] No, no. Wouldn't be OK with the viewers
[1:36:24] either. Should we give our Champions
[1:36:25] League predictions then? But don't forget you have to go
[1:36:27] bald if if inter win. Yeah, and produce a teen reveal.
[1:36:30] So we forgot to mention this, but we were gonna, we're doing
[1:36:33] our Champions League prediction. I mean, it makes sense after all
[1:36:36] this fucking going back and forth with PSG and not really
[1:36:39] Inter, but we're gonna give our Champions League predictions.
[1:36:42] Anyone want to start? Anyone care to?
[1:36:44] Start what I want to happen or what I think will happen.
[1:36:46] Now you want enter to get fucking destroyed 7 nothing you
[1:36:50] work. That again, that's.
[1:36:51] Crazy what I want. Yeah, you want enter to lose 4?
[1:36:54] Nothing. Go.
[1:36:54] Go, please. What I want fucking.
[1:36:56] What I blow my brains out right now?
[1:36:58] What I want to happen is enter 3 nil but what I think will happen
[1:37:03] is enter 21 you. Know the drum?
[1:37:08] Who's there? My, my superstition.
[1:37:12] There must be real wood in there because you keep knocking it in.
[1:37:14] Brother, I'm telling you, it's pressed well.
[1:37:15] It's pretty strong. I remember that time when you
[1:37:17] fucking pressed give it a right hook.
[1:37:18] Taram game-winning goal. I don't even want to.
[1:37:23] That'd be a dagger. I don't think it's gonna be
[1:37:26] boring. I don't think it can be boring.
[1:37:27] PSG doesn't have it in their game for it to be boring.
[1:37:30] My my my thing is that a lot of the Inter players were in that
[1:37:34] CL final from two years ago. Like the whole team was
[1:37:37] practically there except Brozovich and Onana.
[1:37:40] So a lot of those players understand what a Champions
[1:37:42] League final is. They understand the pain of
[1:37:44] losing it. So I don't want to say enter
[1:37:48] right now. I don't.
[1:37:49] Grow a pair, Do. It do it.
[1:37:50] No, I'm not. Going to do it I'm.
[1:37:52] Not going to do it or don't give your prediction.
[1:37:53] I'm not going to give a prediction.
[1:37:55] OK, so you're a bitch, but you're not a bitch, you know?
[1:37:57] My prediction I'll go with AA11. Wait, so by the way, that means
[1:38:02] Millie thinks that Enter is going to win?
[1:38:03] Perfect. You are not not giving a
[1:38:05] prediction. I could do whatever the fuck I
[1:38:07] want after you fucking said I'm a fucking closeted UV fan.
[1:38:10] Better shut your fucking mouth. How about you fucking just?
[1:38:13] You gave your prediction, OK, now they're going to give their
[1:38:15] prediction. We're going to call it a day.
[1:38:16] He can't give his prediction. He said he's going to win, he
[1:38:19] said he's going to win. You said he's a UV.
[1:38:21] Fan so technically doesn't have to give his his prediction.
[1:38:24] This is AUV fan. He's giving his prediction.
[1:38:26] He's. An Arsenal fan OK?
[1:38:30] Give you prediction. I'm a closeted Arsenal fan.
[1:38:33] I'll go 11 full time ghost extra time.
[1:38:35] Oh, you, you're a. You're A and then.
[1:38:39] That arch your time gimmick. And then an extra time.
[1:38:42] The PSG depth is gonna is gonna persevere here and it's gonna be
[1:38:46] 3-1 PSG. Mean Carlos Augusto Darbian and
[1:38:49] and. Get to running, my brothers.
[1:38:51] Batezi doesn't do it for you. Get to running that team beat.
[1:38:53] Barcelona, by the way, but yeah, OK.
[1:38:54] I don't know how that team beat Barcelona.
[1:38:58] This is one of the best team in the world.
[1:38:59] I want to, I want to have a sure prediction, but it's two up in
[1:39:03] the air. It's way it's way too up in the
[1:39:06] air. But I will say PSG 3/2 full
[1:39:09] time. I think the winner, I'm going to
[1:39:11] give him Millie prediction. I think the winner's going to be
[1:39:13] the team with who scores the most goals.
[1:39:15] Yeah, yeah. You got it bro.
[1:39:18] Millie, we do need a prediction score prediction for the for the
[1:39:21] clip. PSG versus Arsenal, PSG versus
[1:39:30] Inter, Champions League final Millie, what is your prediction?
[1:39:34] Just Millie. Bro, I can't do this.
[1:39:37] I can't do this. All right, Millie.
[1:39:39] Predictions prevail. Superstition has prevailed.
[1:39:43] So it's. Going to be 1.
[1:39:44] One goes into pens. PSG went on pens.
[1:39:48] You are such a cock. You're such a cock.
[1:39:51] Here, she went on Pence. You are a cock, Juventino.
[1:39:54] That's who you are. Yeah, you are.
[1:39:56] That's what Juventino would say. That even deepens my.
[1:40:00] Theory, Juventino would always say we win, we never lose, yeah.
[1:40:05] Oh my God, that's. Superstition, bro, My team's
[1:40:06] gonna see how final yours isn't. OK, I.
[1:40:08] Didn't know you were this. I know you open your fucking
[1:40:11] mouth for the last two weeks saying, oh, it's Tottenham, it's
[1:40:13] Tottenham, it's Tottenham, it's Tottenham, we're going to beat
[1:40:15] them. It's Tottenham, it's Tottenham.
[1:40:17] What happened? You shot the fucking bed.
[1:40:20] So I'm going to do what I do and you just continue what the fuck
[1:40:22] you're doing. OK, Perfect it.
[1:40:24] Just makes me won't believe that Interfans don't deserve to be in
[1:40:26] the seal. Find them.
[1:40:28] Yeah. I don't know, bro.
[1:40:30] This is maybe everything I know about Millie's a lie.
