1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,560
But shall these pigs out they kettle out? Lovely turn! What a finish! That is pure quality!

2
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:13,120
Shall they kettle out? Opens the scoring! Then gets a round of applause from his coach.

3
00:00:18,080 --> 00:00:23,600
Hello you knuckleheads and welcome back to another episode of Seria a spotlight. This is

4
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:32,240
Jek and Matt covering all the action of matchday 24 in Seria. An absolute shootout it was. I'm

5
00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:41,760
at J24. A lot of goals. We say a 5, 1, 4, 1, 3, 1, 4, 2, 4, 0, another 3, 1 and a lot of bangers man.

6
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:46,640
So many good goals man. We're gonna have to bring the poll back. The last few have been so clear. The

7
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:50,560
goal of the week and the last few episodes that I haven't even included the poll to be honest.

8
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:56,400
But this week we're gonna have to do it for sure because there was Charles de Ketelars took the cake.

9
00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:59,680
Right and then this control and shot immediately without the ball even touching the ground.

10
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:04,160
Control with the right, volley on the left. Malinovsky's goal was a rocket.

11
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:09,120
Yeah. Trademark Malinovsky finish. Yeah, the Orsolini second goal which was amazing Ronaldo

12
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,080
Esk placed as well into the far corner. First goal was nice as well. That's true.

13
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:17,520
And Gaitano after Lovombo flicked the ball towards him and he just curled it in top bins.

14
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:23,440
Yeah. Koop Meiners perfectly placed free kick. Elisheirah with what looked to be a

15
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:30,560
miss hit shot. I'm not sure. Yes, definitely an unorthodox finish. I don't know the way

16
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,680
their conditions were so bad that we'll give it to him. That was a juicy goal.

17
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:38,000
Yeah. Smacked off both posts and into the back of the net. Theohanandis' goal was very good

18
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:43,920
running in obviously a trademark Theohanandis run and Leao having enough vision and awareness

19
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:49,760
to not play it to Giroud on the wing who kind of decoyed down the wing but played it straight

20
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:55,280
through to Theohan setting him up 1v1 versus the goalkeeper and then my country Larry who

21
00:01:55,280 --> 00:02:00,560
chopped inside and left Pyrrhala on the floor basically broke his ankles. Yeah. Had plenty

22
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,000
of time to finish and made no mistakes over there. I don't know if we're missing anyone.

23
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:08,240
I don't think so. Those were the great goals. I know Mazzatelli scored a free kick but it was

24
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:17,680
kind of an awkward one. That deflected. We had a huge upset as well with Juve losing last night.

25
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:22,960
This is why we don't record Sunday night. This is why we wait for all the games to take place

26
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:29,520
before we record because that's an upset. Milan find themselves just one point behind Juve

27
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,400
in their increase their gap to seven points including the game in hand obviously.

28
00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:42,080
So yeah what an amazing week of football. Yeah. Truly amazing. I really enjoyed it.

29
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,800
By the way not recording on Sundays makes perfect sense as well because these are matchday recaps

30
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:53,680
and the matchday needs to finish of course until we do a recap. But the say our schedule has made

31
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:59,600
it quite complicated for us as tomorrow there is a match between Bologna and Fiorintina that was

32
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,280
meant to be played in matchday 21 will be of course informing you what happened in that game

33
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:08,880
the next episode. Speaking of though we do have a few midweek fixtures of course Europe

34
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:13,920
European football is back. Yeah lots your buyer is on tomorrow at nine o'clock but on the Fiorintina

35
00:03:13,920 --> 00:03:18,640
the Sierra one's on at seven so that's a nice warm up if you don't have any Valentine's Day plans

36
00:03:18,640 --> 00:03:24,480
which trust me Matthew most definitely has because he spent about 30 minutes on the floor.

37
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:30,960
Trying to find a restaurant before this episode. It's fucking fine because for some weird reason

38
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:36,480
he feels like pop food man. She feels like chicken wigs. So we're going to pop. There we go.

39
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:43,440
I had I booked the table for 845. This is just in time for Champions League. That's perfect.

40
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:47,440
The game is going to be on bro. You're going to be fucking looking over her shoulder. She's going

41
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:53,440
to be like hey my eyes are up here. On Thursday there is Feyenoord against Romats 645 and then

42
00:03:53,440 --> 00:04:00,160
Milan against Reign. Reign. Reign. Reign. They're on like a fucking eight match on beaten streak man.

43
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:04,480
That's going to be a tough one. So are we going to be there. And that's one at nine o'clock of

44
00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:08,320
course and next week on Tuesday there's Inter Atletico at nine o'clock and then Wednesday

45
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:13,280
Napoli Barcelona at nine o'clock as well. Yeah keep in mind that Fiorintina aren't playing in the

46
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:18,240
conference league yet because they've automatically progressed to the next stage as well as Atalanta

47
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:23,200
in the Europa League for topping their group just to further prove what a fantastic season

48
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:29,120
Atalanta are having this year man. Yeah they're doing superbly and now with El Bilal back that's

49
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:34,000
completely new avenue with Lukman back from Afgan as well and the CDK on form. I think Skamaka is

50
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,240
going to be the butt of the he's going to get the worst of it. I think he'll see the light of day.

51
00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:48,720
They're stacked up front now man. Yeah no it's CDK, Miran Csuk, Skamaka, El Bilal, Lukman now that

52
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:55,280
he's back as well. So aha it's going to be very competitive and you know thankfully they've got

53
00:04:55,280 --> 00:05:00,400
a coach that loves to rotate and he excels at rotating. I think what he'll do is he'll give them

54
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:07,120
23.5 minutes each you know exactly you know just use up all his fucking slots on on replacing the

55
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:13,840
strikers you know. Yeah that's so gasperini. Thank you very much to the gentleman and gentle woman

00:05:54,960 --> 00:06:01,040
the family. But without further ado here comes the rundown of the matches which are going to be

64
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:06,960
discussed today and so we'll start things off with the biggest match of the week, the most exciting

65
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,520
match of the week especially since Roam are looking so lively so attacking on there. There are

66
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:18,080
still Roam at two inter four horrible weather. It was like a hail storm the entire time.

67
00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:22,400
Conditions made it very difficult for both teams but inter prevailed and they showed us that there

68
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:28,640
are steps above everyone else. Milan won Napoli nil. Fantastic performance by Milan. I didn't think

69
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:35,120
Napoli were too bad in this game. They created a few decent chances but Milan did enough to hold

70
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:43,600
on over there even though there was a late shock. Juventus nil Odinesa won. Odinesa they don't win

71
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,920
much but they've now beaten Juve away from home and they've beaten Milan away from home and I believe

72
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:52,160
they only have three or four wins this season. Yeah two away wins and they're against Milan and

73
00:06:52,160 --> 00:07:00,160
Juve. That's fucking crazy man. That's crazy. Genoa won Atalanta four three magnificent left-footed

74
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:07,200
goals in this game and a debut goal for a certain El Bilal Toure in case you guys don't remember he

75
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:13,840
is Atalanta's record signing after they signed him for 30 million last summer. Calieri won Lazio

76
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:18,640
three is the other game that we're going to be covering. Good performance there by Lazio.

77
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:24,320
Fiorentina five. Frozzinone one. Everyone was getting on the score sheet for Fiorentina. Even

78
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:30,960
Barak and Giorgo Econi guys. Wow stay tuned for that one. Bologna four. Lecce nil. Bologna are

79
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:36,560
back again at Doppietta by Orsallini. Some magnificent goals in this game as well. Salernetana

80
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:41,840
one. Empoli three. Empoli absolutely outclassed Salernetana in this game so much so that Pip

81
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:46,880
Ponzaghi got sacked after failing to beat one of the only teams that you think Salernetana could

82
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:52,240
potentially do something against. Saswolo one Torino one. If you see Saswola and Torino next

83
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:58,000
to each other how do you not bet on this score line one one between the two sides and Monza nil

84
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:03,360
Verona nil because if there's a nil nil game it's always at the end because we were always over time.

85
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:11,280
Yeah exactly and that I think is a must do for us to be honest because we we blab on for so long

86
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:15,920
bro about these games. It's almost like we don't talk about games and we're not recording man.

87
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:23,200
Yeah which we do to our to our girlfriends demise but yeah and we can start off with Romante I think

88
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:30,080
that was the the most you know the most noteworthy game of the lot the biggest game. The first real

89
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:34,800
challenge for Dorossi is what they were hailing this one after he went flawless three out of three

90
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:41,440
against minocides to be honest and say yeah but things were quite complicated as as you alluded

91
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,840
to before bro there was a torrential storm this game and I think it did actually contribute to the

92
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:53,440
high number of goals as the score was inter for Roma too. This did not seem to faze Dorossi though

93
00:08:53,440 --> 00:09:01,280
as he was stood there hands in his pocket in the storm no raincoat no beanie no nothing no jacket

94
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:08,320
like he was just stood there bro in his suit drenched and he looked totally unfazed yeah yeah

95
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:12,960
so that's what you get with a manager like Dorossi you know he's only recently I guess you could say

96
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,760
recently retired so I guess he loves to feel part of the squad yeah but wear a track suit man do

97
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,040
yourself a favor if you're gonna stand there in the rain don't wear a suit like that must have been

98
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:27,120
so uncomfortable I can't even imagine the color around his neck drenched man you know segue number

99
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:35,280
one of this episode if you were a manager what would you wear if I were a manager okay so it depends

100
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:42,160
right if I'm managing Milan Juventus in town I'm gonna wear a nice suit you know I'm gonna wear a

101
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:47,280
lovely suit the type that like people who watch the game they're just looking at me yeah and if

102
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:52,320
I'm managing Salernitana it's a fucking track suit zipped up to the top bro I'm gonna be out there

103
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:59,200
barking I agree barking at the boys I agree in summer see me press in summer I'd like to have

104
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:04,720
you know a t-shirt maybe tucked in into nice pants a little bit but if it's rainy you know the arson

105
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:11,440
venger coat really long one bro with the padding yeah that's like a corpse should be inside that's

106
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:18,240
that's what the body bag anyway that was segue number one yes so as for the lineups for Roma it

107
00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:23,280
was a 4 3 3 formation with Rui Patricio in gold rick cars doorp on the right and the new boy

108
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:29,520
and Helino on the left with Mancini and Huysin as the center back partnership it was Brian Cristante

109
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,920
Paredes and Pellegrini playing as the midfield three with the ball on the right el shall we on

110
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:41,120
the left and look out who up through front up front now for inter it was Bastogna al-Cherbian

111
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:45,360
pava'a that the back of course with Jan summer in gold the Marquandar man out on the flanks

112
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:50,880
with Mikita are you in Chalano blue and by land the middle and the striking partnership of lautaro

113
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:56,640
Martinez and Marcus through Ram now Ram actually came out the aggressors this game there was el

114
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:01,360
shall we I called summer into action with a brilliant save just 50 seconds in and that

115
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:05,440
actually was a brilliant save because it was looping over summer who kind of had to jump

116
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:11,440
up in the air and punch it over for a for a corner however it was in the 17th minute when

117
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:18,480
Lukaku's headed clearance fell straight to Alceribi who looped the ball over Rui Patricio and then

118
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:24,640
with his head a good goal for Alceribi who really enjoyed that and went on to flip off the fans by

119
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:30,080
the way yeah absolutely fucking rightly so brother the the chance they were singing to him were

120
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:35,760
disgusting absolutely disgusting about him having testicular cancer and how they wanted him to die

121
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:42,240
well kind of thing so yeah yeah you know you get you give what you get and if you can't get what

122
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:49,840
you give then don't give you know what I'm saying yeah take that wrong right yeah yeah um just one

123
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:56,320
thing I want to say about this one thing I want to say about this goal is I thought now I'm no

124
00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:02,800
expert I'm no genius but I think this was offside man yeah because of because there was

125
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:08,560
the rum I believe in like an offside position I didn't say he wasn't interfering with play

126
00:12:08,560 --> 00:12:14,000
but he made contact with the goalkeeper I'm surprised there wasn't that much of a reaction

127
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:19,200
I might have it completely wrong but but I truly think that that was offside I think we've truly

128
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:26,720
been desensitized bro wait till we get to the uva game mad on bro what honestly the Udenes

129
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:32,720
goalkeeper I'm forgetting his name right now is it oh yeah oh yeah yes the 24 year old Nigerian

130
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:41,520
spent an entire game punching Milliken I'm not even it's true he did it twice he did twice when it

131
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:46,880
was the exact same penalty that was given against Inter and this is what we mean when we scream for

132
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,560
consistency yeah I mean and there was also a goal that set out for uva that I still till today

133
00:12:50,560 --> 00:12:56,400
don't know what happened but anyway let's stick to this game for now and the 28th minute Pellegrini

134
00:12:56,400 --> 00:13:01,920
picked out Mancini with a delicious free kick and the Italian psychopath headed it in and went off

135
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:08,160
celebrating and then in the 44th minute captain Pellegrini struck again it seems that he's back

136
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:13,680
he picked out El Sharaoui with another fantastic pass and El Faro and I struck the ball weirdly

137
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:18,400
kind of like it looked like he should have gone for the far post but he went for the near post

138
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:23,440
and even the the technique he opted for was a far post technique you know what I mean like

139
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:28,720
his body language screamed far post but he caught summer of garden hit off the near post into the

140
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:34,640
far post and into the back of the net it was actually quite a cool goal so that was it for the

141
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:40,880
first half and then the second half Inter came out with a vengeance in the 49th minute Thuron

142
00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:45,760
burst towards the far post and latched onto Darmeon's post to turn it in and in the 56th

143
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:51,760
minute Thuron's reign of terror continued the French son of a legend charged towards the

144
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:58,080
near post forcing Angéline to turn the ball into his own net of course in the 92nd minute there was

145
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:02,800
an insurance goal this was a counter attack with no one really defending for Roma you could see the

146
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:07,760
players running back but it was kind of like more of a formality than actually running with any

147
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:13,200
desire to win the ball back are now to which played the ball to Bastogne 1v1 on a counter you

148
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:18,880
can see Alexis Sanchez really wanted that but Bastogne of course claimed it and put the ball

149
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:26,800
into the back of the net yeah yeah so bro this was the first real test for the Rossi right you

150
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,960
could say that because people have been saying that I don't think it's a I don't think it's not

151
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:36,080
the first real test yeah but but the thing is more in you would have probably won those three

152
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,920
games let's not get it twisted the three relegation side games more than you would have won those

153
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:44,560
maybe not in the same manner yeah that's wrong I won them but yeah I think you would have you would

154
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:51,840
have definitely gone got them over the line you know perhaps so let's assume that this was the game

155
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:57,040
where the Rossi had to show that this Roma have something different to offer did he pass the

156
00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:05,440
test in your opinion so in my opinion yes so to get two goals against Inter in the first half now

157
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:11,680
keep in mind take everything I say with a pinch of salt because of the terrible conditions that

158
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:18,560
took place in the game because from one side you've got that they looked really really good once

159
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:24,960
again going forward and testing Inter's back line which is a very tough line to penetrate and they

160
00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:29,920
managed to put themselves ahead in the first half so they really really took the game to Inter

161
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:36,320
and then the second half with Roma have shown us a negative side throughout the Rossi spell

162
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:42,560
it's their defense they can't hold up defensively the same way they did under Morinio because they're

163
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:49,120
looser as a team they're not so tight as as they were and which subsequently allows them to concede

164
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:54,000
more goals and that at the same time you could also blame the conditions so you could blame the

165
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:59,840
conditions that they scored two goals you could also blame the conditions that they conceded for

166
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:06,080
I think if for his first let's call it test he goes out there and puts two post-inter in the first

167
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:12,960
half and they look the way that they did because they looked really really good in this game I think

168
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:21,760
he passed the test personally yes and originally I thought the same thing in fact originally I wrote

169
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:27,760
first test for the Rossi passed and like just passed now I added a question mark because

170
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:33,920
granted they started well they played very well they attacked Inter they were fearless the conditions

171
00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:41,840
were against them but in the second half they didn't go out prepared I think I think they went

172
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:47,600
out with the wrong approach to Ram punished them in the same way running into the box one at the

173
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:53,920
far post one in the near post and getting on to on to the end of a cross from from out wide of course

174
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,920
and I think they should have tightened up to be honest I think they should have taken a play

175
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:02,800
out of Morinio's book and literally just tightened up and not committed so many men forward because

176
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:07,440
the problem is inter kind of hit them on the break for these two and that's not what you

177
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:12,000
expect to see when you're up to one getting hit on the break twice to go fucking down you know

178
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:19,920
so I think that it was it was a pretty good game for for Roma pretty impressive showing for the

179
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:27,840
Rossi but I think as a as a test I would say it was a failure you think it you think he failed I

180
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:32,960
think he failed yes I think he he failed to get something out of a game where he put his team

181
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:38,480
in a position to get something out of it perhaps it's harsh but that's not just the reality it is

182
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:46,240
harsh yeah Milan lost 5-1 to Inter Milan have been losing 5-1 to Inter for for two years now

183
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,600
Inter are exactly that goes to show how strong Inter are Inter are absolutely

184
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:55,920
but what do we always criticize about Milan playing against against Inter how they don't

185
00:17:55,920 --> 00:18:03,280
purely approach is but this is the Rossi is fourth Serie A game in charge for Roma yes it's

186
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:11,280
it's kind of basic know that that if you take the lead if you you're entering the second half

187
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:18,800
and you're ahead then tighten up you know make the make the ssj changes yes that's basic and

188
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:24,560
to be honest I'm quite disappointed that he didn't manage to fucking instruct his players to do so

189
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:30,080
and then there are also the conditions that you have to keep in mind perhaps they're not a team

190
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:37,040
that are going to they're a very high pressing attacking team and maybe they were looking to get

191
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:42,480
a third and maybe had the conditions have been better they could have gotten that third but the

192
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:48,160
way that things played out Inter the better team prevailed and they managed to put four past them

193
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:53,280
I wouldn't say it's a failure I think you score two goals against Inter in the first half and you

194
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:59,040
look the better team in the first half I would it's harsh to call that a failure yeah I agree it's

195
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:03,600
harsh but but it is a failure you got zero points I mean he was in a position where he could have

196
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:09,600
got one oh yes but that's not the if pass or fail is win or lost it's a very easy conversation

197
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:16,560
unfortunately that seems to be the case more often than not like for example in Zaghi in Zaghi had

198
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:21,520
Salernitana playing well against top teams playing very well against top teams looking

199
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:27,280
organized and it was down to well to last minute mistakes at the end of the games an extra time

200
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:34,960
that actually led them to not getting any points one bad game against Empoli and he's off he's

201
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:40,480
done you know I mean eventually when they're gonna be when when the free kins are gonna be thinking

202
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:45,760
should we genu there or see should we or should we go for someone else this game's gonna be looked at

203
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:50,800
as a as a failure to maintain a lead I think or to get something out of a situation where

204
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,720
where the coach had his team ahead I don't know I'm just taking into account that it's

205
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:59,520
Daniela De Rossi who lacks experience and it's his fourth game in charge and it's against Inter

206
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:05,040
who are blowing everyone out of the water yes and and it's true when when you actually look at the man

207
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:11,840
who's in charge in De Rossi and you look at his CV and you look at um his managerial history whatever

208
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:17,840
obviously for him this was he was overachieved you know he should have never put two post-interput

209
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:22,560
them in a winning position and all that but at the end of the day you're managing Roma and Roma

210
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:27,840
are a fucking massive club and they have certain expectations they spend a certain amount you know

211
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:33,600
the players are of a certain caliber and the ownership expects a certain a certain standard

212
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:37,920
they I don't know it's true it's harsh of course to call this a failure brother it was a torrential

213
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:44,320
storm with fucking Barilla Chalano Glumikitar in Lautaro Martinez to Ram DiMarco all fucking

214
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:49,520
charging at you and you're a you're a Seria essentially a manager from a managerial perspective

215
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:57,120
he's a Seria of virgin and there was a torrential storm he has new boy Angelino on the left young

216
00:20:57,120 --> 00:21:03,840
look youngster Huysin Karsdorp who okay he's great but he had been out for essentially the entire

217
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:10,240
time where he was there it's harsh bro it is harsh but of course it's harsh but at the end of the day

218
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:16,240
offensive brand of football perhaps this demonstrated his naivety I think or his inexperience because

219
00:21:17,360 --> 00:21:21,520
an experienced manager you think okay granted more in you would have probably never gone to

220
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:26,480
to one up this game right absolutely not in a way they were playing but you think if they had

221
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,320
gone to one up you think they would have fucking got nothing out of this game with more in under

222
00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:35,760
more in you that's it that's the difference hey that's the difference I don't know now

223
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:42,720
you can't have your cake and eat it exactly at least the football is exciting and he's way

224
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:47,920
better than most of us thought he would be you know he has them playing very well but the thing

225
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:53,360
is absolutely clear where they need to improve which is a great thing not so we can put our

226
00:21:53,360 --> 00:21:58,640
finger on it so so can he that's for sure and Evan Indy because back from afghan as well now so

227
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:03,760
they don't have to rely on Huysin who has to be honest exceeded expectations he's been very good

228
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:11,120
but having Indyka of course is a is a massive advantage for Roma and yeah and perhaps again

229
00:22:11,120 --> 00:22:15,440
I've been harsh on the russian I would like to apologize to anyone I've potentially offended

230
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:22,720
but but yeah that's just my it is harsh and I think that as as well getting so Lorenzo Pellegrini

231
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:32,400
right the stubborn fucking morinio honestly didn't play Pellegrini for an entire season

232
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:39,520
and he's stuck with the most pragmatic midfield three in the entire league just three disruptors

233
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:45,760
not a single fucking creator and then a flat front to expecting the ball to create anything and

234
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:54,640
everything right Derossi comes in slits mother sluts Pellegrini directly into the steam

235
00:22:54,640 --> 00:23:00,720
oh what does he down brother three games or four games he has like three goals and three assists

236
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:05,840
two assists against Inter Elshara we into the team this guy morinio saying he didn't have

237
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:12,800
options puts Elshara we on and he's one of their best players all of us absolutely he is rediscovering

238
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:20,000
this team and along the way as this team is being rediscovered there's gonna be many many many

239
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:25,760
asset back definitely they're gonna have very disappointing losses after this game I'm sure

240
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:31,600
of it because this team is still figuring it out you know imagine you're fucking parades or

241
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:38,800
or cristante you know and you're used to more in your system where you're always fucking okay now

242
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:43,760
you press okay and I cover okay now I present you covered that that's the only thing that is

243
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:48,240
constantly going through your mind and now parades is seeing the ball all the time he's

244
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:52,720
constantly with the ball at his feet you know what I mean it's a massive massive transition

245
00:23:52,720 --> 00:24:00,400
but one thing remains the same Lukaku is shit on the big stage or the fucking time every single

246
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:05,760
time Lukaku's on the big stage that he's fucking shit he tried to round the goalkeeper there it

247
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:13,840
tries to round him relax he's cursed and these situations man in these big moment big moment

248
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:20,240
situations and he's mentally fragile he's playing against Inter he knows that they hate him bro they

249
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:25,200
can't stand him he's got all his former best friends it doesn't fire him up him it's not he's not

250
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:31,200
quite Jamie Void you know what I mean in that aspect like Jamie Void if you boo him he'll kill you

251
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:38,160
you know he'll actually embarrass your football team if you mock him as a fan base um some players

252
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:43,760
hide you know he going was one of those as we alluded to last episode Milan uve yep exactly that

253
00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:50,320
Milan uve again bro was he saw it although he lost his mind the worst public meltdown I've ever seen

254
00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:56,880
in my life after him is that penalty man I got the red card fucking crying whining it was horrible

255
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:06,560
to watch horrible um but yeah I I also wanted to of course praise Angelinho who scored an own goal

256
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:11,200
he was unlucky I was kind of disappointed to see him going out shortly after scoring the own goal

257
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,720
because I felt like it wasn't fair the own goal don't get it twisted it wasn't his fault there was

258
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:19,520
not much we could do over there the round with him of course turned it I barely noticed shortly

259
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:25,280
after same here yeah but he played very well and it's nice to see that Roma have someone who can

260
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:29,680
cross the ball and Angelinho was someone who on European nights always struck me as a as a good

261
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:35,280
player so nice to see him in the league um Lukaku was wasteful as you alluded to the ball was invisible

262
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:41,920
yeah I thought so yeah I can't remember many moments where the ball had the ball or or actually

263
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:46,560
did anything with it you know what I mean yeah um my memory fails me right now I don't know if

264
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:51,200
there's anything I know he wasn't he wasn't too involved in this game I mean if you look at him

265
00:25:51,840 --> 00:26:00,560
how many touches it even had he had four 86 touches um which is okay I guess um no key passes though

266
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:05,680
he had four crosses none of them were accurate too long was one of them was accurate he only

267
00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:11,040
won three duels out of eight obviously he lost possession 15 times as well but this is up against

268
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:15,760
in games in games like this though certain players stand up right if you look at the goal

269
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:20,400
scores it says everything you need to know you've got a chairby you've got Mancini grounds okay I'll

270
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:25,760
share out we got the ball but then you have two Ram as well Bastawni these big fucking cold mother

271
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:32,240
fuckers scored the Ram is the number one when it comes to every single big game in Ta'af had

272
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:38,720
the season the guy has scored yeah against everyone Braga is all the top seven teams that they faced

273
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:43,760
he scored he's so probably forced on own goal here and he was actually known to be quite a

274
00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:47,920
wasteful player and we did actually see him be quite wasteful this season as well but uh he's

275
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:53,440
really fucking turned it up man on these big occasions and this game actually in Zaghi rewarded

276
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:57,520
him for him because he subbed off Lautaro instead of him and usually he always subbed off the Ram

277
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:03,200
so he let him to Ram basically play not the entire game because he did get subbed off for

278
00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:08,480
Alexi Sanchez in the 87th that might have been for a standing ovation yeah but um but yeah man he

279
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:13,120
got rewarded and the future is definitely bright for for it to run you know who I thought was

280
00:27:13,120 --> 00:27:18,240
brilliant in this game and I think it went a little bit under the radar who Henrik Mkhitaryan

281
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:24,880
oh yeah um I think he's often overlooked because he's probably the least sexy and and you know um

282
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:32,240
the the least marketable player let's say in that in that inter team um but I I thought he was a

283
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:37,760
great man even if you look at the statistics he is just a very very tidy and clean player with

284
00:27:37,760 --> 00:27:43,600
few mistakes in his pocket um it's no wonder they are so good when they have someone in the midfield

285
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:50,480
that just knows what he's doing understands the assignment and we often see him get criticized

286
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:57,360
um for being inter-starter at that age we see inter get criticized rather um but honestly he

287
00:27:57,360 --> 00:28:02,800
really really impresses me Mkhitaryan such a clean football yeah he's got good technique he's a good

288
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:07,680
carrier of the ball he goes on these little bursts that he can still do at his age um and he's very

289
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:13,280
intelligent as well so he can pick a man out or a pass that might not be the most obvious one

290
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:18,240
to play um Pavard had a very interesting strike at one point skimmed the post would have been a

291
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:23,840
lovely goal but yeah bro when it comes to this game I thought that inter deserved it um as I

292
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:28,320
as I mentioned earlier Roma were slightly naive to not shut up shop after taking the lead but of

293
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:34,400
course the conditions made it quite difficult for for them to to do anything as also for inter to

294
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:39,200
come back into the game because the storm didn't let up it was I'm surprised the game even went on

295
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:44,240
I don't know how the ball passed the bounce test at the beginning how how funny the the weather in

296
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:51,360
Malta um why is that game was on there there was 15 minutes of an absolute fucking hailstorm

297
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:57,280
like and we it looked like it was snowing we never get snow here but yeah that's pretty much it

298
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:03,920
um inter are currently in first with 60 points of course they extend their lead by seven points

299
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:11,280
over Juventus with a game in hand um while Roma are down in sixth with 38 points uh four points

300
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:16,320
of the Champions League spot but Alta Lanta do have a game in hand yeah we had another massive

301
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:22,400
game this weekend was Milan Napoli which has become a bit of a rivalry since last season a

302
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:27,520
Milan I'm getting the better of of Napoli on so many occasions last season when Napoli were

303
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:33,520
absolutely demolishing anyone and everyone and we saw Leao having an argument with Spalletti

304
00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:39,440
and Maldini getting involved culturally this has become quite um a heated affair between these two

305
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:44,720
teams Milan were coming off a three two away win against Fosnone and Napoli were coming off a two

306
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:49,520
one home win against Verona the previous encounter between these two games was one of the few games

307
00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:54,720
I woke up for in Australia Milan were winning 2-0 and then the second half when famously Jirou

308
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:59,760
said we didn't know whether to attack or defend Napoli equalized making it two to Raspadori

309
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:06,160
Freikirk I remember yeah Reinders was suspended in this match so we saw Ben Asser stepping inside

310
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:12,640
along Adli the first time we've seen these two start together um obviously I'm not going to go

311
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:18,480
through all the injuries Milan have um in the defense however Malik Chow um is recovering and

312
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:24,160
he's back in training um Mario Rui sat out a ban and was replaced by Madzocchi on the left hand side

313
00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:30,400
and Alex Merritt had Gastroenteritis he had the gastric flu so he couldn't play in this game replaced

314
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:38,720
by Gullinia Angusta was back Ossiman was not because he was busy losing in the final um Napoli

315
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:46,000
were unbeaten here in Serie A since December listen to this Jake when do you think was the last

316
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:53,440
time Napoli lost in the San Siro against Milan in Serie A the last time Napoli lost in San Siro

317
00:30:53,440 --> 00:31:00,160
in Serie A um I remember the comeback that was the one Calabria squad and that was at the Maradona

318
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:10,800
I think when Milan were two in a lop I would say bro I don't know man 2015 almost 2014 December

319
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:16,960
2014 so you're actually very very close you're a month away um and they won their last three in a row

320
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:22,880
that I remember I believe they were all one one that's quite an impressive statistic right man

321
00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:28,880
right and then like interestingly Milan trashed Napoli for nil last season that was in the Maradona

322
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:34,240
bro that's absolutely mental what these two teams do to each other and Milan started with their 4-2-3-1

323
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:40,400
formation with Mike and goal and the back line of Calabria, Kier, Gabia and Theo and double pivot

324
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:45,120
of Ben Nasser and Adli as I mentioned earlier with Lea on the left, Pulisic on the right and

325
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:51,280
Loftus Cheek playing behind Giroux but it was a very interesting 3-4-1-1 formation for Napoli

326
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:57,440
with Gullini in goal and the back line of Ostegaard, Rachmani and Juan Jesus, DeLorens of playing out

327
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:03,040
on the right, Mazzocchi on the left and a midfield tree of Ziellinski, Lobotka and Anguissa with

328
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:09,760
Guevara's Celia in the free role playing behind Giovanni Simeone. Now in the 10th minute Simeone

329
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:14,080
should have done better at the near post after Guevara skipped past Gabia and squared it from

330
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:20,480
the right hand side only for the Argentine's first time attempt to stray wide. They were then punished

331
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:26,480
in the 24th minute as Theo scored after a Lea assist, it was a trademark Milan goal, Theo picked out

332
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:31,840
Giroux and darted forward off the ball, Giroux laid the ball off to Leaou who picked out the run of

333
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:37,280
Theo with a very well-weighted pass and Theo Hernan deserched through a gaping hole in Napoli's defense

334
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:43,200
and beat Gullini at his near post. Just three minutes later Leaou cut inside and had a curling

335
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:48,000
crack from distance, only it forced a brilliant save out of Gullini so me and Jake looked at each

336
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:52,240
other and said I thought we asked him to play to his strengths but that was a fantastic attempt

337
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:58,800
by Rafa Leaou, one of his better strikes and you know after that there were chances for both teams

338
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:03,680
Simeone had a good opportunity after Benassir gave the ball away and Poletano had his weekly

339
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:10,640
threatening Tira, Giroux that flashed just wide of Mike's post. Leaou missed an opportunity after

340
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:17,840
a great ball by Florenzi which shows the frustration of Leaou as he's still 15 games without a

341
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:23,680
goal and in the 88th minute that's when every Milan fan was absolutely I can guarantee you every

342
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:29,840
Milan fan that was shitting himself or herself and Napoli got the closest opportunity of the night

343
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:35,760
as Lindstrom's cross met the extended leg of Simeke which whacked the ball against his own post

344
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:44,400
and that was threatening stuff by Napoli but I would say Napoli had some good opportunities

345
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:51,120
they had two three good opportunities but I think as a Milan fan those last five minutes were

346
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:56,400
the only times I felt threatened I thought Milan did a very good job of controlling the game.

347
00:33:56,400 --> 00:34:04,160
I agree yes I feel like Milan did an expert job to be honest to handle Napoli in this situation.

348
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:10,400
A few things to note as well Davide Calabria did go off injured and was replaced by Florenzi

349
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:18,720
who has looked useful as a utility option. He came on at one point and thank god he did because

350
00:34:18,720 --> 00:34:24,640
Gvardskeli was clean through on the break he had only Kier in front of him and Florenzi saw this

351
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:30,720
at the midfield line and started charging started running back as fast as he can. Kier

352
00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:39,280
God knows what the hell he was thinking he honestly a guy at his age like honestly just

353
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:48,400
what are you doing when he tried to take Gvardskeli out he tried to kill Gvardskeli.

354
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:54,720
So just because he saved Ericsson he feels like he can kill Gvardskeli. He like slide tackled but

355
00:34:54,720 --> 00:35:00,400
like midair like Kong Fu kicked he tried to Kong Fu kick him like from the front man going for a

356
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:07,200
shin you know any contact and that is he would have really latent blatant red card. Gvara had the

357
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:14,320
presence of mind to round him but Florenzi had tracked back the entire time and actually won the

358
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:19,200
ball back I think he gave a corner away but he did win it back basically stopped Gvardskeli so

359
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:26,320
shout out Florenzi. He is every referee's nightmare Florenzi every time he comes on the referee makes

360
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:32,080
like a routine decision there's always a routine decision that he just can't believe it Florenzi

361
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:37,120
just can't believe how stupid certain players have a license to talk to the referee you know

362
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:42,560
Kierlini was one of them. Exactly they're almost former captains or people who captained the team

363
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:47,680
for a long time Florenzi was Roma's captain for so long so he almost feels entitled to run up to

364
00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:51,520
the referee and whine in his face when in reality he shouldn't be talking to the referee but he

365
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:56,000
doesn't stop he doesn't stop it's hilarious there was the game before this one I don't even think

366
00:35:56,000 --> 00:36:01,040
we mentioned it on the podcast he was killing us we're laughing at him that the match was fucking

367
00:36:01,040 --> 00:36:06,080
ended Milan came back to win at the end and Florenzi is still screaming at the referee because

368
00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:10,720
of the yellow card having other conversations with other players shaking that in the background you

369
00:36:10,720 --> 00:36:16,800
just see fucking Florenzi just with his hands together big super italian just like complaining

370
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:23,120
whine literally um just a few players I would like to highlight that really made this Milan

371
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:29,360
performance a dominant one and Florenzi was one of them and I've recently come across the the

372
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:38,160
term milth yes man I love Florenzi you know what man I do love Florenzi I do love Florenzi

373
00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:46,080
um Gabia just again extra like I'm sorry but this was another extraordinary performance by Gabia

374
00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:51,280
and he reads the game so well man and that is his number one trait honestly the way he reads the

375
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:59,200
game is very very good um Adli and Ben Nassay and the pivot together were very good um very

376
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:06,400
creative very fluid um off the ball and then obviously we didn't get to see Ben Nassay is

377
00:37:06,400 --> 00:37:10,720
fantastic off the ball though isn't he he tracks back a lot and he gets out of dirty work done

378
00:37:10,720 --> 00:37:21,840
and just Theo Hernandez is so before we said that the uncontested star of Milan is Rafa Leao

379
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:28,800
and we've mentioned Pulisic being there Jiru being there can we not take this man Theo Hernandez

380
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:35,040
for granted because for the past five years he has been the most reliable player in Milan's team

381
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:44,560
without a shadow of a doubt reliable versatile loyal um fit fit he isn't available available

382
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:49,760
absolutely no drama no hassle with renewals no no nothing he stopped doing this shit at the back

383
00:37:49,760 --> 00:37:54,960
exactly he improved defensively so much every year we almost see him get better to the point

384
00:37:54,960 --> 00:38:00,240
that he was viewed as a bad defender in his first season he was viewed because Theo all he can do is

385
00:38:00,240 --> 00:38:06,000
attack this season was four or five years later he played as a center back that goes to show the

386
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:11,280
progress that Theo Hernandez has made as a player remarkable player honestly i think he's at the

387
00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:18,160
moment mr Milan you know what i mean absolutely he is the um epitome of Milan when it comes to

388
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:24,720
Leao of course he's always going to be the star golden boy the more key player you know because

389
00:38:24,720 --> 00:38:31,760
he's flashy he's cool he dribbles with a smile he does things that most people can't do his technique

390
00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:35,680
and his dribbling skills are incredible so of course he's always going to get the headlines but

391
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:41,040
Theo Hernandez i don't think there's a player like him in the world man literally and it's funny

392
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:47,120
mazari complained he's like like we we played a good game i don't think Milan deserved to win the

393
00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:52,480
game so i was really frustrated by their goal because it was the most routine Milan move ever

394
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:59,920
and he said i don't want to blame one player from my team um but we've practiced that hundred times

395
00:38:59,920 --> 00:39:06,000
leading up to Milan what's this the arian robin effect the the del pierre effect everyone knows

396
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:11,200
what you're going to do but you can't stop it exactly take the L baby take the L but like

397
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:17,200
what what a move that is by me to have that up your locker just have that treat code left back

398
00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:21,920
that can play a ball dart fucking forward that way and all you need to do is wait for him to get

399
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:29,600
in a position brilliantly waited ball uh placed pass rather by by leo and i thought gullini should

400
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:35,280
have come out better probably but that's speed bro that's speed of tail sometimes so quick sometimes

401
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:41,280
i wonder um how much of this is improvisation and how much of it is is practice and training you

402
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:48,320
know what i mean um like do leo and teo bail purely out or does purely set them up to succeed i don't

403
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:53,040
think it takes a genius manager to put together that move i'm not gonna like it takes like

404
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:59,760
leo i've almost been embarrassed to set it up pass to leo teo you run run sure

405
00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:07,760
everyone cover cover to the tall striker start running tall striker hold up play to the winger

406
00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:13,840
winger plays it to the left it's it's routine a it's and they've done that move a thousand

407
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:19,280
million fucking times so you mentioned what madzari said after the game what about what purely

408
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:24,800
said i think that way brother this is an actual quote by the way i know we joke a lot over here

409
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:30,960
but it sounds like purely might be a listener because this is right up our alley so leo and teo

410
00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:39,120
they hear each other they smell each other they know each other they kiss each other i kiss them

411
00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:45,760
too when they score a goal fucking yes end quote yes that's what we're all about here at melan

412
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:53,280
man that's it man we we kiss we smell we love we fuck man we know we know we know we all kiss

413
00:40:53,280 --> 00:41:01,120
each other fuck it let's up it's a party man what are we non-inclusive what's this that's such a strange

414
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:09,680
joke to make you know they know which are they kiss each other i kiss them as well man i want one purely what

415
00:41:10,720 --> 00:41:16,240
the twitter reaction has been hilarious because no one knows like quite what to make of this quote

416
00:41:16,240 --> 00:41:21,520
um but yeah it's it's hilarious no it's it's it's it's beautiful purely was always such a great

417
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:27,920
speaker um me and i'm now nine games undefeated their last loss came against atalanta in december

418
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:34,080
since then they've had two draws and seven wins it's easy to look at the balonia game it's easy

419
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:38,320
to look at the salernetana game and say me lan are in a slump me lan haven't been in a slump since

420
00:41:38,320 --> 00:41:44,480
the start of the year and and the end of last year me lan are looking like a fully flowing

421
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:51,520
champions league team and any other season me lan could really fucking push for to win the league

422
00:41:51,520 --> 00:41:58,640
and you mentioned calabria's injury he said to miss two games only what motherfucking milf will step

423
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:06,400
in and and do a fantastic job over there for me lan me lan now just one point behind juventus in

424
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:16,240
third place you've gone 53 me lan on 52 while snopoly my god ninth place 35 points just two

425
00:42:16,240 --> 00:42:24,560
points ahead of torino juve took on udenesa at home and failed to get anything out of it yes

426
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:32,080
they got roasted udenesa beat them one nil for juve's lineup it was a 352 formation with shesney

427
00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:37,680
and gold gutty bremer and sundra at the back sundro over there relieving danilo i'm giving him a bit

428
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:43,120
of a rest cambiazo was out on the left with wea out on the right rabio locatelli and westamik

429
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:48,480
anywhere in the middle with arquadius millicop front replacing the injured duzan vlavic alongside

430
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:57,440
federico chiesa for udenesa it was a 351 one formation with maduca okoya in gold who had a

431
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:04,320
fucking incredible christensen janetti and pares at the back zamour on the left as ibe on the right

432
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:11,360
samarzic wallis and love rich in the middle with tauvan playing behind lorenzo luca now

433
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:18,560
udenesa's goal came the 25th minute after lautaro janetti fired home after a nudeneza free kick

434
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:25,600
which wasn't cleared well by alex sundra and the second half millic scored but kiazaz cross had

435
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:35,200
gone out of play and i can't remember to be honest a game where juve got so close to scoring and

436
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:41,120
just couldn't man i can't honestly i'm in the second half the quality did dip when they brought in

437
00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:46,720
their substitute when they made their substitutions you look at the substitutions um you've made this

438
00:43:46,720 --> 00:43:52,880
game and it highlights a problem right a problem that we've discussed before on the spot cast

439
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:59,600
so they took out where locatelli chiesa and cambiazo and they brought on yield is illing jr

440
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:08,240
nico lucy and cherry um for uve next gen players yeah now you know when they're doing well it's

441
00:44:08,240 --> 00:44:13,920
good they have all these good players who are great for the future they have a nice system going

442
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:17,600
i'm developing youth and all these youth players are looking so good because though these four

443
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:22,400
players that i've mentioned are very exciting right yield this has been amazing ling jr has already

444
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:26,880
made a name for himself and nico lucy has looked dependable cherry is a six foot six striker by

445
00:44:26,880 --> 00:44:33,120
the way who has um who made his debut this game um but they don't really have any options on the

446
00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:38,720
bench to turn the game around when they get an injury or two to their eleven man so when kiaza's

447
00:44:38,720 --> 00:44:44,960
out or when vlove which is out or when robby o's out these guys are not replaceable for them at the

448
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:50,560
moment and they are struggling um and they well not they are struggling they struggled in this game

449
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:55,600
they couldn't get it over the line in this game the game changers are all in their starting 11

450
00:44:56,160 --> 00:45:02,560
it obviously doesn't help that the likes of you know vlove which is out injured moise keen is out

451
00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:09,680
injured um obviously what happened to phaljoli and pogba happened to phaljoli and pogba as well

452
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:17,600
um so those are all massive setbacks and you know at least two of these suspensions in pogba

453
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:24,240
and phaljoli suddenly impacted this team for the entirety of the season but as a result of that

454
00:45:24,240 --> 00:45:30,400
you would expect to see them be just a little bit more active in the january transfer market no you

455
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:38,080
would think also players like philippa kostic wasn't brought on in this game and and he is when

456
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:43,440
you need a goal and you have kostic available then perhaps he is a good outlet to bring on

457
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:49,760
um whether it's in a more offensive area or or whether it's it's as a left wing back for example

458
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:56,560
i feel like he's um even due to his experience he is perhaps a player that should have been brought

459
00:45:56,560 --> 00:46:05,280
on but it's a very yes you you're right and we debated last week actually um kieza was not starting

460
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:10,160
matches and that he was being brought on as almost like a super sub and yielders was starting those

461
00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:16,960
matches and we're saying is kieza ever fit and is he the type of player that should be utilized

462
00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:25,440
only for special occasions so on so forth maybe that is kind of why um allegory opted to bring him

463
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:30,560
on as a super sub as well because they don't have many game changers so starting with yield is if he's

464
00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:36,160
not performing as an 18 year old and i think he's more likely not to perform as an 18 year old they

465
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:40,720
could bring on kieza and like that you could you could ensure that you have the game changer and at

466
00:46:40,720 --> 00:46:47,520
the same time he's more more likely to remain fit i guess i do like that approach and um i i can see

467
00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:51,120
though why he opted against that for this game because you have love which out you're not going to

468
00:46:51,120 --> 00:46:57,120
start with yield exactly you know um but yeah but yeah um absolutely i think that's not a bad idea

469
00:46:57,120 --> 00:47:03,360
getting yield is to play 60 minutes or a half and then bringing on kieza when legs are tired

470
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:10,800
so he doesn't have to deal with 90 minutes of being kicked um in the second half the only chance

471
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:16,560
the only good creative chance created by one of those midfielders was kambiazo by the way what a

472
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:22,560
fantastic game i think kambiazo was the best man in in a uv kit um he had a ball over the top to

473
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:27,520
to yield is and that was the only chance i think that was created other than that it was a whole

474
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:33,840
lot of kieza dribbling one man trying to dribble another man losing the ball winning it back trying

475
00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:40,000
to dribble another man you know just trying to do everything himself he you remember when kieza

476
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:45,680
was at fjorentino we said this guy could be great but he never looks up you still you still kind of

477
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:51,280
see that in his game huh and it's true when when he's just outside the box at a bit of an anger

478
00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:55,680
there's the opportunity to cross or likely the ball off but he's there with the ball at his feet

479
00:47:55,680 --> 00:48:00,080
going oh am i gonna go left am i gonna go right of the box yes that's true he used to ball watch at

480
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:05,440
15 i used to look at the ball while he was dribbling yes man coach mark would have killed him um

481
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:11,520
yeah um by the way with you with this uva loss every team has now lost at least once at home

482
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:18,960
uva were undefeated at home oh wow okay yeah um a few a few yes a few more things i would like to

483
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:27,280
mention of course let's highlight the the star men at udineza the first of all choffee well done

484
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:34,080
you are legrida legrie yeah an absolute defensive master class he brought on isak success and brenner

485
00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:39,280
who just pressed and pressed and pressed as high as possible and they really disrupted uva's flow

486
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:44,960
and they couldn't do anything so props to dineza props to choffee he did a great job now

487
00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:51,120
next up is a Nigerian goalkeeper madouka okoya who is 24 years old six foot six giant kid

488
00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:58,000
he was actually born in germany fun fact and he grew up in the duesseldorf system before moving

489
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:02,320
to munshin gladbach and then bayer leverkusen along with duesseldorf and his youth career he

490
00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:07,600
moved around a lot in a senior career he's played for duesseldorf rotherdam sparta rotherdam as well

491
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:11,680
so there's two apparently there's young sparta rotherdam which is the youth team i would assume

492
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:16,560
and sparta rotherdam which is a senior team he also went to whatford but didn't play a single game

493
00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:22,160
before being loaned back to rotherdam and sold to udineza eventually so you know what he is bro

494
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:27,200
a potso man he's a victim of the potso system yeah yes whatford and udineza for those of you do not

495
00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:30,960
know have the same owners and they're constantly shifting players around i mean think of perera

496
00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:37,280
think of delafoe think of tristacongo all these players it makes perfect sense um yeah another

497
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:43,520
man i'd like to highlight is laotaro janet ayas by the way maduca okoya does represent nigeria

498
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:49,600
he's played 16 games for the for the super eagles and um he's got a very bright future let's talk

499
00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:56,480
about how he punched ah yes so yes there were three three controversial moments in this game um

500
00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:04,720
two of them being exactly the same where okoya charges out punches the ball and then the follow

501
00:50:04,720 --> 00:50:10,640
up dex millik in the face like honestly it was almost comedic how similar it was to the whole

502
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:17,760
inter incident um so you think those were both penalties because you had argued that you you

503
00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:24,320
believe if you get punched in the face but i i thought that summers was more as he was punching

504
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:32,400
the ball he also it was more in um it was more in the same frame of action i felt like these were

505
00:50:32,400 --> 00:50:39,280
like follow-ups like actual actual follow-ups i did think that the the inter one was a bit more

506
00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:44,640
like he made contact with the ball and straight after on milik's place but this was more like as

507
00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:51,120
his arm was going down you know he he landed on i personally for me they're very similar um this

508
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:55,920
is both of of course we're always preaching for consistency blah blah blah remove subject to the

509
00:50:55,920 --> 00:51:01,680
thing i'm kind of yeah i thought they would both be harsh kind of thing which is not to say that

510
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:08,880
obviously the inter one wasn't harsh but but it is quite frustrating and i would see where inter

511
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:19,200
fans are coming from that these two weren't weren't given i see that um yes absolutely for no but i

512
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:24,320
am of the belief that as you know if you've listened to the previous episodes that i'm goalkeepers

513
00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:32,080
need to be protected and that in these situations um you should never give a penalty for that in my

514
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:37,600
opinion um if you get the ball first the striker if he chose to put his head in the path of the

515
00:51:37,600 --> 00:51:42,640
flying fist of the goalkeeper that's that's his own fault as harsh as it is today i'm harsh bro

516
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:45,920
it's really harsh i'm like the russies are failure and penalties shouldn't be given when

517
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:53,120
strikers get punched in the face yeah no but do you do you agree that um okoye's were more follow

518
00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:59,040
throughs and that the other one was a little bit not not not entirely bro i don't agree i think they

519
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:02,800
were very very similar i think they were all follow throughs to be honest the ball was punched first

520
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:12,240
and then the man second in every of the situation okay that's it um lao taro janetti brother yes

521
00:52:12,240 --> 00:52:19,840
lao taro janetti um was virtually a nobody before the season um in europe at least he's a six foot

522
00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:28,720
tall center back 30 years old um he was brought in from velez starsfield in argentina okay he actually

523
00:52:28,720 --> 00:52:34,000
has played for argentina for the national team um at youth level though without the under 20s and

524
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:40,880
the under 23s um yeah this was only his second ever appearance for for odineza and he played very

525
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:46,320
well and even scored a goal so he'd be happy with how his debut season in europe is going

526
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:52,480
mm i was surprised to see one name in the sudineza starting lineup and it's nehu emperes because

527
00:52:52,480 --> 00:53:00,640
it had been virtually confirmed that he was off to napoli at the end of at the end of january but

528
00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:06,720
clearly that's fallen through and here he is still representing representing udenese yeah that's

529
00:53:06,720 --> 00:53:10,320
that's always fun here when you expect someone to be leaving in the new turn on your tv and you

530
00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:19,040
see them over there you were like what the hell what's new in pairs doing there but yeah um wallis

531
00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:23,440
is quite often an unsung hero for it and as he does a whole lot of dirty work in that middle he's so

532
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:29,760
good um and samard zitsch man the way he glides with that ball if he really is joining juventus next

533
00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:35,840
season because as the reports suggest they could really use that and having robbio and him to carry

534
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:41,280
the ball would be would be amazing for them you know they really need that there was a a third

535
00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:47,760
controversial moment ah yes of course oh how it slipped my mind manu denerse defender was sliding

536
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:55,200
yeah and he literally got a arm on the ball like a proper arm full on the ball and it wasn't a proper

537
00:53:55,200 --> 00:54:02,480
arm full it wasn't a proper arm full it was quite an arm full bro i don't think it made any impact

538
00:54:02,480 --> 00:54:08,000
to to any outcome of what was going on it was a defender pulled the ball with him as he was sliding

539
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:14,480
with his arm it was a bit of a stray arm that made slight contact with the ball from very very close

540
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:20,400
range i've seen them given before bro i've seen them given of course with wrongfully i don't know

541
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:24,000
if it's wrongfully he's right in front of the goalkeeper he's sliding and he moves the ball

542
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:29,680
with his arm um it's not exactly natural his arm wasn't in a natural position and the ball didn't

543
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:35,680
move naturally so i don't know at the we've reached a point where i don't know the rules hey man we've

544
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:38,640
reached a point where i'm watching the game like is this a penalty i don't know because someone's

545
00:54:38,640 --> 00:54:44,800
gonna pull out a fucking clause like according to the sixth line of the like fuck that man i don't

546
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:50,960
know honestly i don't know anything i don't care to be honest yeah for me um i'm just gonna keep

547
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:58,800
whining for objectivity and consistency yeah yes um i don't know if there's anything else

548
00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:04,400
left to say from this game or other than the fact that um Juventus were very disappointing this game

549
00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:10,080
and they didn't really show up um the midfield was pretty bad to be honest i i i didn't think that

550
00:55:10,080 --> 00:55:15,040
anyone had a particularly good game not even look at elliand rubio despite the high ratings on

551
00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:19,120
you watch the game they weren't particularly great yeah come be also for me is the man of the

552
00:55:19,120 --> 00:55:25,760
match for Juventus he was bombing down that um flank in a more advanced position than timothy

553
00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:31,920
way off and yeah enough timothy where i was dropping deeper um as for denezer incredible team

554
00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:37,520
performance okoye man of the match um millik did his absolute best to try to get on the score sheet

555
00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:44,720
netting in and i've said he would get a low rating for this he would be made fun of or insulted for

556
00:55:44,720 --> 00:55:49,200
this display but there wasn't much he could do he got his shots on target he even got one into the

557
00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:56,240
back of the net it was just up against the keeper who was who was on top form yeah agreed agreed

558
00:55:56,240 --> 00:56:01,040
Juventus are currently in second with 53 points that's seven points away from inter who also have

559
00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:06,960
a game in hand as we alluded to where denezer have climbed up to 15th with 22 points there's a new

560
00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:12,000
word you're enjoying i alluded every episode i have a word i overused it's true last week it was

561
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:18,640
spunk it's so strange they'd have a lot of spunk they had too much spunk spunk was there

562
00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:25,040
roma just didn't have enough spunk bro believe it isn't there you know i think roma have a lot of

563
00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:31,120
spunk to be honest man monchini has a lot of spunk he definitely has a lot of spunk uh

564
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:36,960
janowa one at alanta for another very very dominant display by at alanta bro they're just

565
00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:42,320
looking so good this season they're looking like a definite top four team at this rate now

566
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:46,960
janowa were coming off a nil nil away draw to empoli whilst at alanta were coming off a 3-1

567
00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:51,680
home win against lazio the previous encounter between these two teams was a 2-0 victory for at

568
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:58,800
alanta now both sides were on splendid form as the hosts were unbeaten in eight with uh the winter

569
00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:06,720
suspended haps and january signing ankei injured ladea had cope miners back after a couple of weeks

570
00:57:06,720 --> 00:57:12,960
out but edison sat out a ban with hian and palomino while muriel is heading toward andosity

571
00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:18,560
and adamola lookman was busy playing in the african cup of nations final with nigeria again

572
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:26,560
losing and it was a 3-5-2 formation for janowa with the amazing martin as in goal in the back

573
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:32,880
line of vasquez bani and voliaco or voliaccio a friend drove out on the left sabelli out on the right

574
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:37,920
and the midfield tree of strutman badel and malinovsky with retek weand good and goodman's

575
00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:43,200
in up front there's a 3-4-2-1 formation for gasperini's men with carne secchi in goal and the

576
00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:48,160
back line of scalvini jim city and colasinac home out on the right with rogeri out on the left

577
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:54,080
on the double pivot of pasalic and the ghosn with cope miners and decay telare playing behind skamakka

578
00:57:54,800 --> 00:58:00,720
at times this also looked like cope miners in the free roll with skamakka and decay telare up ahead

579
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:08,480
of him now the 21st minute atalanta opened the scoring through a splendid strike by charles

580
00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:13,760
decay telare who controlled pasalic spas from just outside the area with his right and immediately

581
00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:19,440
struck a half volley with his left which flew into the top corner he did an i can't hear you

582
00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:24,160
celebration which was really cool sabelli didn't like it he's going in his face he's complaining

583
00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:30,160
he's mimicking him wow shut the f*** up see decay's moment not yours sabelli was upset he was double

584
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:36,640
marked all game man yeah poor guy he had f***ing rogerian colasinac on his ass all game dude because

585
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:41,520
he's the counter attacking avenue but anyways there you go in the 50th minute genoa equalized

586
00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:46,480
through malinovsky who played a one two with buddhel and struck the ball first time with power and

587
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:52,400
precision into carne secchi's near top corner nothing carne secchi could do about that this guy

588
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:58,720
could place a powerful strike you know that he could place a powerful strike that's exactly

589
00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:03,360
what he did so you there's a video game term i'm not sure if you know about it you know scripting

590
00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:08,480
yes of course bro man it's almost like he's script it's almost like that those shots always fly

591
00:59:08,480 --> 00:59:14,000
into the top corner no matter what he's a scripter i'm telling you in the 54th minute cope miners made

592
00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:20,560
a two one for atalanta this was the third world class goal of the match and the third left-footed

593
00:59:20,560 --> 00:59:26,880
goal of the match um cope miners was um from a slightly angled free kick and he beat the wall

594
00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:34,400
and hit the top corner no problem um in the 82nd minute the third goal was absolute chaos as martin

595
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:40,160
has made the save on matero gerry then pasalic but scolvini was there to bundle the ball over the

596
00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:45,760
line eventually the odd thing is that scolvini's boot had come off during a tackle in the long

597
00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:50,320
move so he scored with his barefoot holding his shoe in his hand and he actually slipped over

598
00:59:50,320 --> 00:59:55,440
while celebrating and holding his shoe it was a mess of a celebration and the situation for scolvini

599
00:59:55,440 --> 01:00:03,760
there was there was a six minute var check yeah that's too long to catch pasalic offside who got

600
01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:10,400
the final touch on the scolvini finish six minutes can you imagine being there at the game what a

601
01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:17,760
bore how fucking frustrating but thanks to that obviously there were fucking 11 minutes of at

602
01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:23,520
the time that were added and in the 99th minute zappa costa made a three assist squared against

603
01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:28,960
his former side with a rebound following ameron chuk attempt pasalic once again did great here to

604
01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:36,800
create the chance in the first place and then in the 102nd minute el bilal toure demands first

605
01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:44,480
appearance for atalanta since joining in the summer from almeria for 30 million that's a club

606
01:00:44,480 --> 01:00:49,520
record signing he got injured in a preseason friendly against uver with a rupture of the right

607
01:00:49,520 --> 01:00:57,200
femoral rectus tendon insertion jesus christ that's a mouthful but nevertheless in the 102nd

608
01:00:57,200 --> 01:01:02,960
minute he headed in after ameron chuk cross but to be honest he looked lively while he was on

609
01:01:02,960 --> 01:01:08,400
absolutely no he looked he looked like he looked like skamakka is gonna have a really tough time

610
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:14,400
to find minutes because skamakka's been okay he's not been terrible right especially when it comes to

611
01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:22,560
a productivity from a productivity standpoint but um he's been criticized by spalletti the

612
01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:28,880
italian national team manager and gasperini for not running enough which is just wild like if you

613
01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:33,760
if you are criticized if you're being criticized by your manager for not working hard enough publicly

614
01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:37,840
that's the manager's lost resort he would have told him so many times he would have been told

615
01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:42,640
by so many people you have to work harder before he eventually takes it to the public as a lost

616
01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:51,280
dish tactic you know but now you're looking at as we mentioned in the intro lukmin el bilal

617
01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:58,960
skamakka miran chuk cdk like there's so much talent there's so much talent and i can't tell you

618
01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:04,400
about the false nine i can't tell but feel that we're gonna be seeing less and less of skamakka

619
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:10,480
yeah could could be i mean it was already the case with miran chuk and cdk let alone with lukmin

620
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:15,840
and el bilal to re-entering the the free i am excited to see him because atalanta don't splash

621
01:02:15,840 --> 01:02:21,200
cash yeah and they splashed 30 million on this guy i also have my phanta so i'm so i have him

622
01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:28,560
and skamakka on phanta so i'm super super excited oh but on different ones so if they rotate i might

623
01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:33,760
be fucked in either or but that at least it makes the decision for you because there's nothing worse

624
01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:38,160
than having two gasperini strikers and having to choose which one played man i had to do one more

625
01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:44,160
yell bro oh my god back in the day i have ederson pasalic but thankfully they're starting start them

626
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:53,200
both with a sub bro i want to say cdk is not the only revitalized player under gasperini but pasalic

627
01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:59,840
has improved tremendously his performances last season and his performances this season especially

628
01:02:59,840 --> 01:03:06,320
in recent history they look like two completely different players last season in january i dropped

629
01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:12,560
him from phanta i dropped him to make half the credits back he was the credits were more valuable

630
01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:17,600
i am but this season he's so involved in the play we're starting to see him get into those

631
01:03:17,600 --> 01:03:22,880
intelligent positions he carries the ball forward i thought he's very very involved as a box to

632
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:28,880
box midfielder absolutely he dipped a little bit for a while last season and even beginning of the

633
01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:34,240
season but he he's definitely found his his game again and he played in a double pivot this game

634
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:44,320
so he did very well um before you mentioned elbilal tour and his um his transfer value yeah atalanta

635
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:49,280
don't buy players unless they can flip them for a profit that's their whole transfer model unless

636
01:03:49,280 --> 01:03:56,080
their free transfers or low cost options like zappa costa for example um they they don't go for players

637
01:03:56,080 --> 01:04:01,600
that they're gonna see them lose money in the long run so it's very exciting to see what they've seen

638
01:04:01,600 --> 01:04:07,360
in elbilal tour to bring him in and for for that price tag you know for it to make sense they need

639
01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:12,560
to profit more than 30 mil exactly exactly so what what are they thinking here they're gonna send him

640
01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:18,960
for 70 80 what's this i i'm curious to see what he's done in his career this guy i'm i'm not too

641
01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:25,440
aware to be to be completely lost but he was at almeria and he was on loan a couple of times as

642
01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:33,520
as well yes so he had 21 games and seven goals for almeria and he was with him that was a gem

643
01:04:33,520 --> 01:04:38,720
yeah it's a good thing he's not playing for them this thursday um he had 64 games and nine goals so

644
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:44,720
okay he's scored where he's been he's 22 years old so that's actually quite impressive because that's

645
01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:51,600
a top level you know so yeah it's interesting to see um atalanta swooping and just cacaoing him

646
01:04:51,600 --> 01:04:57,040
you know bringing him in literally um he's also from mali and he has five goals in 15 games from

647
01:04:57,040 --> 01:05:03,680
mali he must have been this is not not not a lot of um not not a huge case study of what he's done

648
01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:09,920
so far no yeah no but she's quite an unknown but atalanta would know man dead no dead no bro dead

649
01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:15,920
no and you know he looked lively when he came on first appearance i'm telling you yes man and i just

650
01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:22,400
want to praise atalanta overall bro because genuinely one thing that i noticed and finally

651
01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:26,800
enough before this episode i was saying that inter do this as well but atalanta fucking

652
01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:36,080
do it to a ridiculous extent the way they stretch the lines they create gaping holes in the defense

653
01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:41,200
genoa starts with a with a tree at the back you know what i mean and they could be very very

654
01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:45,760
closed in and tight but the second cope miners plays the ball to the kate lara plays it to

655
01:05:46,400 --> 01:05:50,320
rude gerry then they swap the play by playing it to the home who plays it to home

656
01:05:51,440 --> 01:05:57,280
by then why is they're all transitioning there's a gaping hole in the defense and they have so many

657
01:05:57,280 --> 01:06:02,800
talented strikers and so many intelligent midfielders that could slot in and get goals over there i

658
01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:10,400
strongly believe that atalanta will get something out of that inter game that inter have a game in

659
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:17,520
hand for they look so good bro they look so fluid they look so mature and once they're off the ball

660
01:06:17,520 --> 01:06:24,400
they are one of the most so on the ball super fluid super quick super sexy super nice off the

661
01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:30,720
ball they are one of the most frustrating teams to play against because they have 11 fucking players

662
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:36,640
behind the ball 11 and they're shifting and and pressing and marking and they're they're

663
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:44,400
unpenetrable impenetrable yeah bro um honestly yes um it took of course two things to penetrate them

664
01:06:45,120 --> 01:06:52,400
a role of the legs of course the law of the xing malinovsky scoring over here and number two malinovsky's

665
01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:59,760
left foot yeah that of course is a script you know but yes bro um they do totally stretch the defense

666
01:06:59,760 --> 01:07:05,040
i agree with you there it's a plug and play system the players seem to understand the system

667
01:07:05,040 --> 01:07:11,200
um now more than ever um it's almost like they had a phase of pragmatism atalanta where they stopped

668
01:07:11,920 --> 01:07:16,480
bombing forward and they stopped putting all these goals past teams and they were kind of almost

669
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:21,600
setting up for a narrow margin victories however now it's almost like they found this this perfect

670
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:29,440
balance man right and and honestly i think that fourth spot is theirs um i can't see anyone else

671
01:07:29,440 --> 01:07:37,680
um on and the thing is they have a very deep squad so here we saw cope miners decade alare

672
01:07:37,680 --> 01:07:44,320
skamakka right any other day you could see miran chuk replace one of those you could see

673
01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:49,280
lukmin replace one of those you could see instead of skamakka you could see el bilal

674
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:53,920
tour instead of home or rujeri you can see zappacost instead of skalvini gyms it's your

675
01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:59,360
kolasenac you could see toloy you could see hattaber on as well they have they have two starters in

676
01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:05,440
every position that's that's pretty much how it is yeah and the model of player they have is just

677
01:08:05,440 --> 01:08:11,680
high IQ versatile very technical so yeah so honestly it's it's a pretty pretty good system

678
01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:17,680
that atalanta have put together over here probably at the moment they're my favorite team to watch

679
01:08:17,680 --> 01:08:23,200
and yeah say i think so bro i think so i really enjoy them and on the day i enjoyed jerno as well

680
01:08:23,200 --> 01:08:29,680
they think they're just careamed but obviously atalanta have so many of these unique players man

681
01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:36,800
they always have unique players they had papugomas they had illichich you know man pasalich is a very

682
01:08:36,800 --> 01:08:43,440
very very unique player cope miners who can play virtually anywhere on the pitch and is incredibly

683
01:08:43,440 --> 01:08:51,520
two-footed yeah very cool team absolutely they are in fourth place on 42 points with a game in hand

684
01:08:51,520 --> 01:08:58,320
there are 10 points behind milan and just three points ahead of bolonia who also have a game in

685
01:08:58,320 --> 01:09:06,080
hand jerno on the other hand sit comfortably in 12th place on 29 points calieri hosted lazio and lost

686
01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:13,840
3-1 i knew this was gonna happen the day ola the second i knew this was gonna happen the second i

687
01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:20,160
flicked on my tv and i saw that bloody stan in the middle would say tim written on it you know

688
01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:24,160
immobilis stepping up or right okay so there's immobilis on the right there's a referee in the

689
01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:30,320
middle holding the coin and on the left who comes into frame day ola the captain of calieri you're

690
01:09:30,320 --> 01:09:36,880
always gonna lose if day ola's your captain fair enough all jokes aside kind of mean all jokes

691
01:09:36,880 --> 01:09:42,640
aside bro day ola's probably my least favorite player in the league and not more not if not in

692
01:09:42,640 --> 01:09:51,120
the world bro watching day ola play hurts me because he's a player okay who gives everything

693
01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:57,920
he gives everything credit to him like but he's so clumsy in front of gold especially and even

694
01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:03,280
in front of his own goal because he scores so many goals and he's so unlucky that like in

695
01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:08,000
situations where he shouldn't even get the ball like the ball hits him and goes into the back of

696
01:10:08,000 --> 01:10:12,480
the net the ball hits him and goes out when he could have scored an open net you know it's hard

697
01:10:12,480 --> 01:10:17,840
to watch day ola my opinion i've always i've always had this thing with him and he he had i remember

698
01:10:17,840 --> 01:10:22,880
for some reason he just sticks in my memory he scored against me lan of course yes because i

699
01:10:23,600 --> 01:10:27,920
because i say this often that's karma yeah and i believe it was it was a very tight

700
01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:33,360
but i believe joao joao pedra had scored as well me i had script like a three to win i believe no

701
01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:39,040
four two opening game of the season a couple of years ago i think yeah possibly um for lots

702
01:10:39,040 --> 01:10:43,920
you it was a 4 3 3 formation with provadell engol who had a great game he sighed on the left marisa

703
01:10:43,920 --> 01:10:49,440
on the right with gila and roman yuli as the center back partnership louis alberto cataldi and

704
01:10:49,440 --> 01:10:53,440
guendouzi were the midfield three with philly panderson on the left is axon on the right and

705
01:10:53,440 --> 01:10:58,880
the return of the king tree ro mobiles starting up front for caliari it was a three four two one

706
01:10:58,880 --> 01:11:04,720
formation with scufet engol zappa yerry mina and obert at the back natan andis was on the right

707
01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:11,360
with atzi on the left deola and makumbu and the midfield double pivot with viola and gaitano playing

708
01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:19,200
behind lapadula it's it's official by the way our girlfriends do find viola sexy yeah it's official

709
01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:26,240
they took him on phanta and they saw him the 26th or they saw him and then took him on i think i

710
01:11:26,240 --> 01:11:30,160
think viola is one of those if you see a picture it doesn't do him justice then he seems standing

711
01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:35,200
over a free kick you know and you're like you're like that guy is cool yeah the 26th minute was when

712
01:11:35,200 --> 01:11:42,320
it started latsio piled up the pressure and isik since square pass past scufet obviously saw deola

713
01:11:42,320 --> 01:11:46,400
fumbling the ball into the back of his own net now this wasn't exactly his fourth of course this is

714
01:11:46,400 --> 01:11:52,000
all comic relief what i'm saying about deola or is it um atzi went to clear the ball totally

715
01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:56,160
mis-hitted it hit deola who was flatfooted and went into the back of the net this is what i mean

716
01:11:56,160 --> 01:12:00,080
when i say he's unlucky atzi should have cleared that yeah atzi should have cleared that or scored

717
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:04,720
the own goal himself there was no situation where deola should have hit that ball and scored an

718
01:12:04,720 --> 01:12:10,720
own goal but anyway so that was the first half one hit in the 49th minute chiro immobile stole the

719
01:12:10,720 --> 01:12:16,400
headlines of this game um the headline is not actually deola it's chiro's 200th seya our goal

720
01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:21,840
which he got from the tightest possible angle after and isik's in rebound well isik's in shot

721
01:12:21,840 --> 01:12:29,280
and immobliss scored the rebound from a tight angle um chiro looks to be back bro when it comes to

722
01:12:29,280 --> 01:12:34,240
his movement at least his offensive movement is so dangerous i think he's top percentile

723
01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:41,440
problem when it comes to his movement along that opposition defensive line he's not as sharp on the

724
01:12:41,440 --> 01:12:48,640
ball anymore he often fumbles it but when it comes to this movement he's topped here in the 51st minute

725
01:12:48,640 --> 01:12:55,600
new boy geitano who's on loan from roma uh from napoli sorry curled in an absolute peach and to

726
01:12:55,600 --> 01:13:02,080
make it to one the calary fans really enjoyed dahwana louvombo zito flicked the ball to him with

727
01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:08,720
the outstep of his foot and geitano curled it from outside the area and you can hear the entire sardinia

728
01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:15,760
stadium erupting i forgot the stadium name but it's in sardinia you always confuse him with bove

729
01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:22,560
who geitano uh possibly at the last step was i believe did i make the same mistake i think you

730
01:13:22,560 --> 01:13:31,280
were just referring to him as bove in the 65th minute philippe anderson converted a well-worked

731
01:13:31,280 --> 01:13:37,280
team maneuver with the help of a deflection off of zappa and in the 84th minute after coming on

732
01:13:37,280 --> 01:13:44,000
and looking quite lively kamada hit the post so brother this is four losses in a row for calary

733
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:53,520
what the hell should they do well it's always tough to say a team should suck their manager

734
01:13:54,080 --> 01:14:02,480
especially when the manager when the manager is claudia ronieri no look i mean calary as i have

735
01:14:02,480 --> 01:14:10,240
said many many times i love them as a team because they are hustlers and however they do lack a

736
01:14:10,240 --> 01:14:20,720
significant amount of quality in their team they have close to no competitive individual quality

737
01:14:20,720 --> 01:14:27,120
within their team there are few players that i look at and i say wow what a great player

738
01:14:27,760 --> 01:14:32,800
natan nandes is technically gifted violas technically gifted lapadoulas cool sure you know

739
01:14:32,800 --> 01:14:40,720
what i mean scuffer is kind of good i guess as a goalkeeper but they really leave a lot to be

740
01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:46,400
desired and you can't fuck them you can't kill them you know what i mean and and we've seen it happen

741
01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:53,680
i think they're to be honest safely destined for the drop and i don't think there are many

742
01:14:53,680 --> 01:15:03,040
many managerial changes they can do to save this team i think that in order for them to survive

743
01:15:03,600 --> 01:15:08,400
a managerial change is all they can attempt because there's no way you're changing 11 players

744
01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:17,280
that's um i so overall i do agree with your with your um analysis basically on on caliari up until

745
01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:25,040
this point um however i do think that this is the toughest moment in the season for them this is almost

746
01:15:26,800 --> 01:15:32,240
a rebuild you know a ground zero they had their best player louvombo who went to afghan and was

747
01:15:32,240 --> 01:15:38,480
unavailable for a while hence them losing literally four games in a row because he's only just come back

748
01:15:38,480 --> 01:15:43,920
so they need to get him ready again um yerry mina has just come into that defensive line and needs to

749
01:15:43,920 --> 01:15:51,040
settle and gay tano has come in on loan and hit the ground to be honest running so that gives them

750
01:15:51,040 --> 01:15:56,480
a few difference makers going forward so for example you have viola and gay tano who are

751
01:15:56,480 --> 01:16:01,680
capable of magic moments you've got a list of strikers you've got so many strikers to the

752
01:16:01,680 --> 01:16:07,280
point that one of them's bound to hit a good spell of form now you've got lapadoula paavalletti

753
01:16:07,280 --> 01:16:12,160
you've got petanya you've got eldor shomorodov these guys are all on caliari's roster you know

754
01:16:12,160 --> 01:16:19,360
they're all in there in their squad i think um i i think they'll they'll be okay man maybe i think

755
01:16:19,360 --> 01:16:25,120
that um you think that they'll be okay maybe yeah it sounds like that sounds like much like me or

756
01:16:25,120 --> 01:16:30,320
wishful i don't know if i'm wishful or not man i i think for example looking at this team i i like

757
01:16:31,200 --> 01:16:36,480
i like what i see more than for example with frosinone because they can grind i'm not sure

758
01:16:36,480 --> 01:16:40,880
frosinone can grind when they go and get stuff frosinone will lead goals no matter what i think

759
01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:46,160
caliari might be able to sort that out especially with runeari an expert in the 442 formation

760
01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:53,360
the personnel they have are tough you know and all they needed were these kind of um creative players

761
01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:59,440
like frosinone bro but they can attack they can attack but frosinone are dangerous frosinone you

762
01:16:59,440 --> 01:17:04,320
have to stay alert for 90 minutes when you're playing frosinone yes you your everyone scores

763
01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:09,840
against them that's it but doesn't everyone score against caliari jake roma beat them foreign

764
01:17:09,840 --> 01:17:18,160
lacha beat them 3-1 milan beat them 4-1 as well yeah they're getting fucked i'm telling you this is

765
01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:23,520
the toughest this is the toughest point in their season i think let me take one quick look at the

766
01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:29,600
table one second so i can objectively um give an opinion so they are 19th right now with 18 points

767
01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:37,200
in 17th outside the relegation pool you have saswolo 20 points ampoli with 21

768
01:17:37,200 --> 01:17:43,840
with denezo with 22 them frosinone at 23 left 23 24 etc etc no mathematically they can of course

769
01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:50,320
mathematically they can but if you look at the form stats of all these teams the worst form is

770
01:17:50,320 --> 01:17:55,360
of course by far salernitana second worst is caliari so it's it's only got bad for them now

771
01:17:55,920 --> 01:18:03,760
caliari you know um they have fucking four elves in a row man that's that's terrible you know and

772
01:18:03,760 --> 01:18:07,920
and honestly it's not a coincidence that they all happened when levonbo was there because what would

773
01:18:07,920 --> 01:18:14,720
ranier do shut up shop for the first half waste the energy of your opposition for an entire half

774
01:18:14,720 --> 01:18:19,920
second half you bring on the players that can actually make a difference now let's let's be fair

775
01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:27,120
because two of those games were against one against roma away and one against laatio at home so those

776
01:18:27,920 --> 01:18:32,960
you can't forget that caliari had any chance of winning or drawing any of those games

777
01:18:32,960 --> 01:18:37,760
and they could have gotten more out of the torino game they could have gotten more out of the

778
01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:45,600
frosinone game before that they beat fucking balonia you know so they are a team that's through

779
01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:52,480
their spirit and and i guess through their hard work their their work ethic they're

780
01:18:52,480 --> 01:18:59,920
they're capable they have spout brother perfect they have caliari have the most spunk in the league

781
01:18:59,920 --> 01:19:04,000
but unfortunately bro they're shooting blanks man

782
01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:15,280
look i feel more inspired looking at caliari than i do for example salernitana verona and

783
01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:21,680
frosinone at the moment that's because you you just love spunk bro that might be it bro that might

784
01:19:21,680 --> 01:19:27,120
be it we'll see okay of course um the relegation situation is definitely one of the most exciting

785
01:19:27,120 --> 01:19:34,400
things happening right now in the league because it is a tight affair and everyone looks good sometimes

786
01:19:34,400 --> 01:19:38,720
and everyone looks shit sometimes i've got two so i said sometimes maybe good sometimes maybe

787
01:19:38,720 --> 01:19:44,480
shit you know um but so small are flirting with us as well along there definitely definitely bro

788
01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:51,040
there there are i can't tell who's gonna get to negate be salernitana caliari verona

789
01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:59,040
frosinone i think i think ampoli are are looking too good nicola right with with nicola but the

790
01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:05,440
thing is as they started getting better results you know they're still only just two points ahead

791
01:20:05,440 --> 01:20:11,520
of verona and eighteenth and three points ahead of caliari in nineteenth so they're still not safe

792
01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:16,080
and there only a couple of injuries are a bad spell away from being there again exactly i mean it

793
01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:21,120
can't get any worse for caliari you know what i mean they're on this four loss in a row streak i i think

794
01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:26,800
they can they can get their shit together and really improve and collect a few points towards

795
01:20:26,800 --> 01:20:32,480
the end of the season frosinone have to be part of the conversation absolutely and lecce i would say

796
01:20:32,480 --> 01:20:38,400
similar to ampoli they're a bit too good to be there i think i don't even consider the nezans as

797
01:20:38,400 --> 01:20:43,040
well same here i'm not to be honest even though they're right fucking there because they're bound

798
01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:47,360
to pick up points you know what i mean these these are teams that are capable of beating the big dogs

799
01:20:47,360 --> 01:20:51,520
you know and that that often makes a difference as long as they can get their job done and the direct

800
01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:56,640
encounters against these teams they should be okay but yeah the season there's still quite a lot to

801
01:20:56,640 --> 01:21:01,280
play for so i think we should move on and discuss lazio a little bit because they were the aggressors

802
01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:11,360
in this situation they were the impressive side um i liked what i saw from lazio uh i yeah that was

803
01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:19,760
a good reaction it was a very good reaction and once again i enjoyed watching izakson who did

804
01:21:19,760 --> 01:21:25,920
granted he got no assist he got no goals but both goals that um that were scored towards the end

805
01:21:25,920 --> 01:21:31,360
were thanks to him you know he forced them yeah that was thanks to his dirty work kamada looked

806
01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:37,360
good coming off for the first time in a long time um luis albertos kind of orchestrating but he's not

807
01:21:37,360 --> 01:21:43,280
getting the same involvement i have a hot take bro that this team can give fucking biomeonic some

808
01:21:43,280 --> 01:21:52,080
problems uh you think i think it was biomeonic i don't think it is big big parts because of that

809
01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:56,640
so first of all the worst thing that could have happened the lazio happened the head of this game

810
01:21:56,640 --> 01:22:02,800
biomeonic lost embarrassingly to levercouzen yes yeah so that's the worst thing that could have

811
01:22:02,800 --> 01:22:08,160
happened to lazio this game because they they would have wanted to face a side that isn't riled up

812
01:22:08,160 --> 01:22:14,400
and fired up to um to destroy them basically and to make an international statement um but

813
01:22:15,360 --> 01:22:19,920
at the at the end of the day kataldi came in instead of rovella and really orchestrated

814
01:22:19,920 --> 01:22:25,360
play when i think kataldi was phenomenal it was very good um possibly the best i've seen of him

815
01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:32,400
of his in a long time yeah so i think that back four is quite sorted and if sorry once he can

816
01:22:32,400 --> 01:22:41,680
even replace hila with kasale who's back yeah so i think that with um the ways the way lazio

817
01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:47,440
play i think they could they could actually give biomeonic some problems man but the counterattack

818
01:22:47,440 --> 01:22:51,760
cheero's offensive movement the few options they have on the bench you know i mean you can count

819
01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:55,120
on pedro on a champions league night if you can ever count on anyone it's pedro you know

820
01:22:56,480 --> 01:23:00,400
what do you think man do you think i'm being optimistic here and do you think that biomeonic

821
01:23:00,400 --> 01:23:06,640
are gonna come out and smash them for nil i don't think they'll smash them for nil but they'll they'll

822
01:23:06,640 --> 01:23:13,440
beat them quite comfortably i say maybe maybe two two nil in one leg one nil in the other maybe a

823
01:23:13,440 --> 01:23:18,640
two one and then a three nil or a three one and then a two nil something like that the margin

824
01:23:18,640 --> 01:23:25,600
won't be one and they'll beat them quite comfortably i think biomeonic are still top they're amazing

825
01:23:25,600 --> 01:23:32,880
bro lever kuzan are eight they're incredible yes um obviously yes um lazio are the massive

826
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:39,120
underdogs going into this one but i think that they can be a wild card this game you know i i wouldn't

827
01:23:39,120 --> 01:23:42,800
rule them out completely in fact i wouldn't i wouldn't place a bet on brian to win for example

828
01:23:42,800 --> 01:23:46,960
this game i would i wouldn't include in a slip i would first of all the odds wouldn't be very i

829
01:23:46,960 --> 01:23:53,760
think they're gonna very good they be not like that but remember this team is still in the process

830
01:23:53,760 --> 01:24:00,880
of gelling bro yeah and all right that defense is sorted that has sorted what was fucking hurricane

831
01:24:02,080 --> 01:24:06,480
you know what i mean the lot really sorted we have go for a hard guy in the team bro you haven't

832
01:24:06,480 --> 01:24:13,040
heard of alessio romano only bro we are we also hurricane against italian defenses no that one time

833
01:24:13,040 --> 01:24:22,800
in the euros no that he do fuck all that's what he did no hurricane no bro um obviously obviously

834
01:24:22,800 --> 01:24:28,720
um that's mostly wishful thinking but i do i do think that um people are underestimating lazio

835
01:24:28,720 --> 01:24:32,400
you know the way people have been speaking about these games that it's an obvious victory for

836
01:24:32,400 --> 01:24:37,520
bian munich i don't think it's an obvious victory for bian munich lazio have dangerous weapons that

837
01:24:38,160 --> 01:24:44,640
they they could use to to punish um bian munich however however the main talking point of course

838
01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:49,040
should be joram mobile let's highlight this career very quickly because scoring 200 goals

839
01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:55,440
in seah is no joke okay i believe you said he was the eighth all time highest goal scorer in seah

840
01:24:55,440 --> 01:25:02,800
right yeah he's eighth with 200 in seventh with 208 roberto badgio and sixth with 209 Antonio

841
01:25:02,800 --> 01:25:12,640
di natale and in fifth with 216 is jose al tafini in fourth with 216 is josepe meadza in third with

842
01:25:12,640 --> 01:25:20,880
225 is gannar nordal in second with 250 is franches gototti and in first with 274 is silvio

843
01:25:20,880 --> 01:25:29,280
piola yeah um he's had a fantastic career of course his youth career with sorento before

844
01:25:29,280 --> 01:25:34,800
moving to juventus and making his pro debut over there he spent some time in seah b the interesting

845
01:25:34,800 --> 01:25:39,760
thing is his time in seah hasn't been the longest you know compared to most players and he spent up

846
01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:45,760
until 2012 in seah b and he played for a general and torino where he backed quite a few goals he made

847
01:25:45,760 --> 01:25:51,120
the name for himself especially at torino before borussia dortman swooped in for him and he spent

848
01:25:51,120 --> 01:25:59,120
between 2014 to 2016 at borussia dortman before being loaned out to sevilla and then in 2016

849
01:25:59,120 --> 01:26:04,800
making a return to torino before being snatched up by lazia that very same year where he really became

850
01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:12,320
a legend yeah that is the that to be honest he found success at torino so on so forth before

851
01:26:12,320 --> 01:26:18,320
but lazia was the first team he was really recognized for his talent at especially at the

852
01:26:18,320 --> 01:26:26,400
highest level yeah the highest level absolutely and it's also he's only played he's gotten those 200

853
01:26:26,400 --> 01:26:35,360
goals in like 340 odd matches man which is crazy that's a crazy conversion rate for immobile absolutely

854
01:26:35,360 --> 01:26:42,800
man i bet you he he sent millenkovich salvage uh thank you message recently no yeah yeah thanks bro

855
01:26:42,800 --> 01:26:52,640
thanks for setting me up for all those goals yeah yeah um table lazia are currently in eighth with

856
01:26:52,640 --> 01:27:02,240
37 points while caliari are in 19th with 18 points we spoke about caliari that are always capable of

857
01:27:02,240 --> 01:27:09,920
being smashed so our frozen one fiorintina beat them 5-1 fiorintina were coming off a 3-2 loss

858
01:27:09,920 --> 01:27:16,640
to lecce remember while frozen one we're coming off a 3-2 home loss to milan and the previous

859
01:27:16,640 --> 01:27:24,080
encounter was a 1-1 draw between these two sides the violas form crumbled in recent weeks with one

860
01:27:24,080 --> 01:27:31,200
point from four rounds plus a heavy supercoppa italiana semifinal defeat to napoli ranieri was

861
01:27:31,200 --> 01:27:38,400
suspended while parisi joined castrovilli dodo and quame on the absentee list the canarini

862
01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:48,720
mist bonifazi oyono marvin kuni um gadhyemis zortea loswardi and marquizza it was a 4-2 3-1

863
01:27:48,720 --> 01:27:54,240
formation for fiorintina terraciano and goal beragi martinez quarta melenkovich and coyote at

864
01:27:54,240 --> 01:27:59,120
the back mandragor and duncan in the pivot gonzales out on the left icon out on the right

865
01:27:59,120 --> 01:28:04,960
and beltrond behind belotti getting his first start over there also it was a 4-4 2 formation

866
01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:10,080
for frozen on it with torati and goal jelly monterey see okalia and valeria at the back

867
01:28:10,080 --> 01:28:14,800
soleon the right harui on the left and berenche and matzitelli playing alongside each other

868
01:28:14,800 --> 01:28:21,680
with dembasek and kyo korhe up front now in the opening moments just in the 11th minute

869
01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:27,680
beltrond's header hit the crossbar in the 15th minute belotti opened the scoring icon added well

870
01:28:27,680 --> 01:28:32,160
to dribble past okalia and take the ball to the byline before squaring it to belotti

871
01:28:32,160 --> 01:28:37,360
was slotted in his first goal for la viola in his first start i believe you don't think a corner

872
01:28:37,360 --> 01:28:42,640
was meant to pass it to belotti no i think he tried to play it to mandragora bro there you see

873
01:28:42,640 --> 01:28:47,680
where his foot was going and where the ball went i don't believe you for you i don't know man

874
01:28:48,480 --> 01:28:53,600
if only i could speak sit down at the table tell charaue on my left and the corner on my right so

875
01:28:53,600 --> 01:28:58,320
i could just ask them if they meant to do what they did man this matchday because honestly

876
01:28:58,320 --> 01:29:06,240
i don't think so yeah i think you have a type in the 17th minute icon got his i believe his first

877
01:29:06,240 --> 01:29:14,880
goal of the season um his strike took a significant deflection off of a call off of okalia and went

878
01:29:14,880 --> 01:29:20,560
into the back of the net uh completely bamboozling to raati nothing he could have done about it

879
01:29:20,560 --> 01:29:26,560
but jorko immediately just 17 minutes in has a lucky assist and a lucky goal to his name no come on

880
01:29:26,560 --> 01:29:33,120
he did he did well um to get that in the 36 minute a corner once again broke through frozen on his

881
01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:39,280
defense and squared it to a teammate um but nico failed to hit the target it was a bad miss and to

882
01:29:39,280 --> 01:29:45,920
be honest by this point jorko was everything going forward for fiorintina in the 43rd minute

883
01:29:45,920 --> 01:29:51,840
beraghi's corner was headed in off the crossbar by quarta as goal line technology confirmed albeit

884
01:29:51,840 --> 01:29:58,160
it was incredibly tight 54th minute nico scored uh duncan headed the ball to the part of nico who

885
01:29:58,160 --> 01:30:05,600
struck avoli into the top corner very very well hit by him um in the 66th minute matzit telly got

886
01:30:05,600 --> 01:30:10,800
one back for frozen on his free kick took a big deflection off melenko which ended the back of

887
01:30:10,800 --> 01:30:17,120
the net sending terra chano the wrong way um and in the 85th minute barack got a scrappy goal but it's

888
01:30:17,120 --> 01:30:22,320
his first in over a year to roti was down and i defend their attempted to clear the ball to safety

889
01:30:22,320 --> 01:30:30,400
with his head only for the hit barack's head and go in um what i also want to point out that kyle

890
01:30:30,400 --> 01:30:37,760
george missed two very very clear cut chances where he was unmarked he had one in the 78th minute

891
01:30:37,760 --> 01:30:45,440
that was saved by terra chano it was a free header and one in the 55th minute um where quarta gifted

892
01:30:45,440 --> 01:30:52,800
the ball to kyle george um at the back but terra chano to be honest did well to deny him bro this

893
01:30:52,800 --> 01:31:01,360
was absolute annihilation yes absolutely and it felt like a celebration for for furentina from the

894
01:31:01,360 --> 01:31:08,080
get go um belotti hit the ground running yeah you know that's a striker who fits the system and

895
01:31:08,080 --> 01:31:14,400
i think so man that makes perfect sense because he's a beast in the box but he's also dependable

896
01:31:14,400 --> 01:31:18,960
outside it you know you look at beltran and in zolav you could merge them into one player you'd

897
01:31:18,960 --> 01:31:24,080
have the perfect you'd have the perfect furentina striker but unfortunately they both lack something

898
01:31:25,040 --> 01:31:29,760
that andrea belotti to be honest might be able to give them to offer because belotti can hustle he

899
01:31:29,760 --> 01:31:33,600
can get dirty can grind in the box can put his head where most people won't even put their feet

900
01:31:35,520 --> 01:31:40,800
and he's also pretty fucking good in the build up play as well you know he actually excels there in

901
01:31:40,800 --> 01:31:46,400
my opinion playing him the ball at the halfway line his whole that play is top notch and when it

902
01:31:46,400 --> 01:31:50,720
comes to in zola you know counter attacking striker and beltran as we have mentioned before is more

903
01:31:50,720 --> 01:32:01,520
of a 10 um before this furentina and all competitions um they lost to letche they lost to winter they

904
01:32:01,520 --> 01:32:10,000
lost to napoli they drew to udenese they drew to balonia um and they lost to sasvolo those were

905
01:32:10,000 --> 01:32:17,760
their last one two three four five six games before this where they didn't have a single victory

906
01:32:17,760 --> 01:32:23,680
um now they played against frozen on who if you hit the ground running against them it could be a

907
01:32:23,680 --> 01:32:29,360
free flowing kind of thing and like you said it was almost like a celebration you know a cone on

908
01:32:29,360 --> 01:32:35,440
the score sheet barak belotti who just came in nico gonzales with a great goal you know

909
01:32:35,440 --> 01:32:42,240
quiet reminding us he's a gold scoring center back yeah so it was almost like this was very

910
01:32:42,240 --> 01:32:48,640
important for furentina they needed a fucking break they they needed a big victory to give their

911
01:32:48,640 --> 01:32:55,040
players confidence especially players like barak players like icon belotti who just came in and

912
01:32:55,040 --> 01:33:00,640
now again they're gonna have quite a few tough running so tomorrow they play against balonia

913
01:33:00,640 --> 01:33:07,680
away from home in what is quite a derby in itself there's four days later they have another derby

914
01:33:07,680 --> 01:33:14,160
a way to nicolas empoli who's obviously i put nicolas before empoli to make it seem like a

915
01:33:14,160 --> 01:33:18,960
tougher game than it actually is because empoli have been have been very good on their nicola

916
01:33:18,960 --> 01:33:24,960
um after that they play lazio and then after that they play torino and roma and then atalanta and

917
01:33:24,960 --> 01:33:32,320
then milan you know what i mean and then uve after that so i don't know i don't i don't think it's

918
01:33:32,320 --> 01:33:38,800
gonna get much much better i think they should enjoy and savor this victory as much as they can

919
01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:44,720
yeah i mean they definitely needed the confidence boost yeah so sometimes this is what you need

920
01:33:44,720 --> 01:33:49,680
the smashing no the only problem for them is that the direct opponent for fort spot are one of the

921
01:33:49,680 --> 01:33:55,040
direct opponents for that's fort spot balonia and the exact same thing yeah you know they also

922
01:33:55,920 --> 01:34:03,440
exploded this match day um yeah i almost forgot where what fjordina were capable of

923
01:34:03,440 --> 01:34:09,920
and i think the striker change can can make all the difference for them yeah probably um

924
01:34:10,960 --> 01:34:15,280
however like like i said brah i'm just looking at these fixtures that they're playing and i really

925
01:34:15,280 --> 01:34:22,240
don't see fjordina getting much out of most of these games i mean they're no it's it's it's gonna

926
01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:27,680
be tough for them i mean they'll put up a fight and then but how many as to how many points they'll

927
01:34:27,680 --> 01:34:34,880
collect i don't know and um do you think let's let's discuss this because this is essentially the

928
01:34:34,880 --> 01:34:40,640
question here do you think that they'll go for that conference league spot do you think they'll

929
01:34:40,640 --> 01:34:43,920
end up getting that conference league spot or do you think they'll finally take that next step to

930
01:34:43,920 --> 01:34:52,080
the europe league i mean after every after the rainfall what comes is the rainbow so if they're

931
01:34:52,080 --> 01:34:58,160
playing all these tough games after each other you know after that it's like oh thank fuck we'll

932
01:34:58,160 --> 01:35:03,520
have some of the easier ones now and and they are they are a strong side and they have been

933
01:35:04,160 --> 01:35:11,440
improving from season to season now let me pull up the standings and have a jolly good look at this

934
01:35:11,440 --> 01:35:24,240
okay fjordina in seventh oh my god i remember eighth might get conference league if eighth get

935
01:35:24,240 --> 01:35:31,520
conference league then they can do it i don't see fjordina i i don't see fjordina getting europea

936
01:35:31,520 --> 01:35:41,360
league man i don't see so tight look at sixth roma with 38 seventh fjordina 37 eighth lotsio 37

937
01:35:41,360 --> 01:35:49,360
ninth napoli 35 are you kidding me that's mental bro yeah i don't think fjordina will get europea

938
01:35:49,360 --> 01:35:55,680
league conference so conference of its eighth conference of its eighth if it's eight they will

939
01:35:55,680 --> 01:36:00,720
i'm almost certain that's fair enough i'm looking at this and it's this is the toughest year for

940
01:36:00,720 --> 01:36:05,760
them for sure bro they could fucking finish ninth what the hell is this league man bolonia and 15

941
01:36:05,760 --> 01:36:12,560
what i mean why roman sixth lotsio eight napoli ninth there's so much talent in this who we call it

942
01:36:12,560 --> 01:36:17,760
a top seven isn't that a top nine bro right there how is that not a top nine sisters then

943
01:36:21,120 --> 01:36:25,440
when it comes to the standings fjordina in seventh on 37 points

944
01:36:25,440 --> 01:36:32,080
well i saw the way down frozen on m 14th on 23 points so the question of are fjordina are

945
01:36:32,080 --> 01:36:38,160
going to get any european football and on the other hand our frozen on are going to remain in

946
01:36:38,160 --> 01:36:48,800
seria i believe um no and no speaking of bolonia before they smashed lecce for nil this match they

947
01:36:49,600 --> 01:36:54,800
they had skorupski and gol they had a 4 1 4 1 formation with posh on the right christensen on

948
01:36:54,800 --> 01:36:59,600
the left belkem and calafuri is the center back partnership with remov roiler playing in that

949
01:36:59,600 --> 01:37:05,920
midfield hole himself with riccardo or solini slash or sonal diño playing on the right

950
01:37:06,560 --> 01:37:11,600
alexis salamakers on the left fab bianat fergis and playing behind joshua zergzi for

951
01:37:11,600 --> 01:37:16,080
a lecture it was a usual 4 3 3 formation with falcona and gol gallo on the left venuti on the

952
01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:20,320
right with bascarot on pongratric is the center back partnership with within ramadan and caba

953
01:37:20,320 --> 01:37:26,560
playing the center midfield trio with band on the left arm the sunderite and christovic up front

954
01:37:26,560 --> 01:37:34,160
quick one yellow and red kits are my least favorite in the world why just aesthetically

955
01:37:34,160 --> 01:37:40,800
aesthetically there reminds me of bric carra bro bric carra with the mc donald's logo you know

956
01:37:40,800 --> 01:37:45,440
with the mc donald's sponsor i think it's i think it's this but that also reminds me of micoli

957
01:37:45,440 --> 01:37:50,720
which i like that's a warm feeling yeah for those of you that don't know micoli plays for

958
01:37:50,720 --> 01:37:55,360
bric carra because typically if you think of micoli you think of pink yeah but we think of the

959
01:37:56,160 --> 01:38:01,600
the leg check color is funny enough but anyway bolonia started the game pretty much from the

960
01:38:01,600 --> 01:38:07,600
get go in a dominant way and just four minutes into the game belkama scored the opening goal

961
01:38:07,600 --> 01:38:13,200
after falcona parried a close range shot from zergzi into his pot despite bolonia's control

962
01:38:13,200 --> 01:38:17,760
elecce had a brief resurgence after 20 minutes with scurrup ski making crucial saves however

963
01:38:17,760 --> 01:38:24,240
elecce missed keo port unity's including a chance shocker for christovich in the fourth minute

964
01:38:24,240 --> 01:38:29,200
bolonia capitalized on elecce's missed chances they extended their lead to tuner with a powerful shot

965
01:38:29,200 --> 01:38:36,960
from orsalini um man that guy can hit it yeah he found it after a short backboss the second half

966
01:38:36,960 --> 01:38:41,280
mirrored the first as bolonia scored again after four minutes this time it was orsalini delivering

967
01:38:41,280 --> 01:38:49,440
a sublime goal a powerful curler with his left foot um bolonia controlled the game the second half

968
01:38:49,440 --> 01:38:54,720
they went into damaged limitation mode as elecce struggled they made substitutions they took out

969
01:38:54,720 --> 01:39:00,160
zergzi they took out orsalini you know they were resting their their key players bolonia of course

970
01:39:01,200 --> 01:39:06,960
faced a big setback setback towards the end of the game when calafiori got injured i'm not quite

971
01:39:06,960 --> 01:39:12,800
sure on the updates on calafiori at the moment but that did leave them with 10 men um you would

972
01:39:12,800 --> 01:39:17,760
think that lecce might score um while they're down with 10 men but no they managed to score a fourth

973
01:39:17,760 --> 01:39:25,920
goal through debutant jens oddgard who got the ball on the halfway line had a lot to do man

974
01:39:25,920 --> 01:39:29,920
he had so much time to think before he finished the game you know like god knows what was going

975
01:39:29,920 --> 01:39:35,680
through his head like i'm gonna score my first goal for bolonia i'm i am going to score my first

976
01:39:35,680 --> 01:39:41,760
goal for bolonia you know but the man is that's what goes through their minds man they probably

977
01:39:41,760 --> 01:39:48,720
would be a mess oh you know i'm not finding anything on calafiori's injury now hopefully he's fine

978
01:39:48,720 --> 01:39:54,560
it looked pretty serious at the time he looked to be in a world of pain but according to recent

979
01:39:54,560 --> 01:40:02,160
reports um he should be taking tests in the coming days and he will probably be missing the the next

980
01:40:02,160 --> 01:40:08,880
game yes this is his annuals or his mid-year leagues his old levels okay good luck bascarotta

981
01:40:08,880 --> 01:40:12,720
bro lost the ball on that last goal man the season he's been a little bit disappointing hasn't he

982
01:40:12,720 --> 01:40:19,040
after his breakthrough season last year uh-huh i think that's you know when when a player had

983
01:40:19,040 --> 01:40:25,600
bursts onto the scene in that manner you know oftentimes i i think that it's just that they're

984
01:40:25,600 --> 01:40:32,000
on such a supreme run of form um like if somebody would have bought bascarotta for 20 million i would

985
01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:38,480
have laughed in their face you know what i mean um there's not enough tape on him right yeah exactly

986
01:40:38,480 --> 01:40:46,080
exactly it's it's obvious that he is dangerous in the air and and he's good at that but with the ball

987
01:40:46,080 --> 01:40:52,320
at his feet or or when he's defending somebody that's running at him i don't rate him too much

988
01:40:53,520 --> 01:41:00,640
in those scenarios yeah no honestly um this season definitely not lost year he was

989
01:41:00,640 --> 01:41:07,200
fucking great i don't know um i don't know if this is a result of maybe not having the cool calm

990
01:41:07,200 --> 01:41:15,520
composed um titi next to him because having um titi next to you um an experienced world

991
01:41:15,520 --> 01:41:21,440
beater like um titi is very different to having marim pongratri who apparently isn't the easiest

992
01:41:21,440 --> 01:41:28,320
person to work with yeah yeah um so that might also play a part in it as well but yeah i do think

993
01:41:28,320 --> 01:41:34,320
that maybe he was riding a good wave of form he was um he was peeking and we'll see we'll see how he

994
01:41:34,320 --> 01:41:39,200
does because he's not old he's on the wrong side of 20 granted but he's still got some time left in

995
01:41:39,200 --> 01:41:45,680
his position to to really become a staple and say yeah yeah yeah absolutely agreed yeah and there

996
01:41:45,680 --> 01:41:49,360
isn't much else to say about this game part in fact that bolonia absolutely decimated

997
01:41:49,360 --> 01:41:55,280
election pick them apart um with high pressing and just more quality man they have so much more

998
01:41:55,280 --> 01:42:02,000
quality than the other team and bolonia currently in fifth with 39 points while lecture are in 13th

999
01:42:02,000 --> 01:42:10,720
with 24 points so there was milan napoli this weekend there was roma enter but what game were

1000
01:42:10,720 --> 01:42:18,240
we waiting for all week what friday night fucking thriller were we waiting for salernetana

1001
01:42:18,240 --> 01:42:27,040
empoli 19th against 20th salernetana won empoli three was the final result salernetana were coming

1002
01:42:27,040 --> 01:42:33,840
off anil nil away draw to torino whilst empoli were coming off anil nil home draw to genoa so this

1003
01:42:33,840 --> 01:42:40,720
game has firecracker written all over it the previous encounter was a one-nil victory for empoli

1004
01:42:40,720 --> 01:42:47,840
now after this result after salernetana's home loss to empoli pipo and zaghi was sacked

1005
01:42:47,840 --> 01:42:55,680
and replaced by liverani i repeat breaking news the ponzaghi has been sacked and replaced by

1006
01:42:55,680 --> 01:43:04,080
liverani some of you may be asking who is liverani well i will tell you liverani is a former player

1007
01:43:04,080 --> 01:43:10,000
as well who became a manager as a former midfielder as a midfielder yes he played for the likes of

1008
01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:18,240
fjarentina palermo lazio peruja etc etc he has 394 professional games and he has also had three

1009
01:43:18,240 --> 01:43:25,040
appearances for it a little between 2001 and 2006 now his managerial career so i'm managing genoa

1010
01:43:25,840 --> 01:43:34,640
latin orient turnana lecture parma calieri and salernetana he's kind of been he's got he's got

1011
01:43:34,640 --> 01:43:41,280
this reputation of a manager who will save you from the drop and that is that is what all these

1012
01:43:41,280 --> 01:43:47,360
teams are kind of going for now of course empoli getting the best of the lot in in david and nikola

1013
01:43:48,320 --> 01:43:54,720
the options for salernetana were probably between liverani and what's his name again bro the guy

1014
01:43:54,720 --> 01:44:01,680
with the hat baladini baladini yes i was gonna say baldanzi man that's crazy but they did go

1015
01:44:01,680 --> 01:44:09,440
for for liverani now liverani's record is not nothing crazy he's more there to study the ship a

1016
01:44:09,440 --> 01:44:15,440
bit of an experienced manager i was confused by the inzagi appointment from the get go as we

1017
01:44:15,440 --> 01:44:21,040
discussed on the podcast why bring in a manager who has never actually done anything in sehia

1018
01:44:21,040 --> 01:44:26,240
who's one sehia be granted who does well in sehia be but doesn't have much experience in sehia

1019
01:44:26,240 --> 01:44:30,960
and then they won't even give him time i don't know man um he took it really badly the sacking in

1020
01:44:30,960 --> 01:44:37,760
zagi he posted on instagram hilarious right in philippo inzagi posted on instagram anyway um he

1021
01:44:37,760 --> 01:44:43,680
posted on instagram saying that um he had really fallen in love with salerno and that he the club

1022
01:44:43,680 --> 01:44:50,240
has a special place in his heart and that he feels like his head was chopped off before he could get

1023
01:44:50,240 --> 01:44:57,040
the job done essentially so he wanted more time right which granted january signings coming the

1024
01:44:57,040 --> 01:45:05,360
team had been playing well but this game was a disappointment this game was was set up totally

1025
01:45:05,360 --> 01:45:10,000
incorrectly empoli were much better than salernetana throughout the whole game and i was very

1026
01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:17,200
disappointed by salernetana bro so a bit of like domination by empoli and it just showed that they're

1027
01:45:17,200 --> 01:45:22,240
in very different stages of their project on one hand you've got david and nikola getting the best

1028
01:45:22,240 --> 01:45:29,280
over is exide just joining empoli and giving them this new life this new umph and this new life this

1029
01:45:29,280 --> 01:45:35,760
new umph that they haven't gotten through pipo inzagi so it only made sense if you can't win if you're

1030
01:45:35,760 --> 01:45:43,360
20th and you can't win at home to 19th out i'm afraid that's as simple as it is and they

1031
01:45:43,360 --> 01:45:49,680
hadn't gotten a victory in so long and this was their opportunity so yeah salernetana started

1032
01:45:49,680 --> 01:45:56,400
four of their january signings including including uh geron boateng marco pelle grino

1033
01:45:57,040 --> 01:46:05,600
who had a fucking shocker in this game by the way um and pierotzi and zanoli also started zanoli

1034
01:46:05,600 --> 01:46:13,920
obviously getting an own goal so tough start for these new players um on the other hand the visitors

1035
01:46:13,920 --> 01:46:20,400
had valukovic suspended kaputo marin and ebuehi not fully fit salernetana started with a 3 4 2 1

1036
01:46:20,400 --> 01:46:25,120
formation with otso and goal and the backline of pelle grino boateng and pierotzi a totally new

1037
01:46:25,120 --> 01:46:29,840
back three over there brother rich on the left zanoli on the right and the midfielder of vasic

1038
01:46:29,840 --> 01:46:38,400
and major with castanos and kandreva playing behind bulaje dia fequa on the other hand also a 3 4 2 1

1039
01:46:38,400 --> 01:46:44,160
formation for davide nicolas men and poli of course not salernetana don't get confused capri lango

1040
01:46:44,160 --> 01:46:50,160
backline of berezinski ismaili and luperto giasi on the right kakachi on the left and the midfielder

1041
01:46:50,160 --> 01:46:56,640
of male and grassy zrukowski and cambia g playing behind cherry who is cherry split into i thought he

1042
01:46:56,640 --> 01:47:04,240
was at uve wrong cherry they're both big strikers though and i thought they were related for a sec

1043
01:47:04,240 --> 01:47:10,240
yeah right yeah when i saw cherry six foot six striker up front you know i'm like oh that's uncanny

1044
01:47:10,240 --> 01:47:17,680
literally now in the 24th minute empoli opened the scoring quite quickly it was cambia g

1045
01:47:17,680 --> 01:47:22,960
zin swinging cross that caught the head of zanoli and looped over achawa and into the back of the

1046
01:47:22,960 --> 01:47:29,280
net very unfortunate for zanoli who put his body in in front of the ball over there then it was in

1047
01:47:29,280 --> 01:47:35,920
god's hands and you know god was a cruel cruel man on this day in the 37th minute dia almost equalized

1048
01:47:35,920 --> 01:47:41,040
as he squeezed a shot on the turn which scraped the outside of the post and in the 44th minute capri

1049
01:47:41,040 --> 01:47:46,960
le pulled off a stunning save to deny cast to deny a custom osvoli flying to the top corner and

1050
01:47:46,960 --> 01:47:53,040
firmly striking the ball away in a flash this was an excellent save by capri le save of the week for

1051
01:47:53,040 --> 01:48:00,560
sure in the 68th minute salenetana equalized through visman another new signing kandreva's deep cross

1052
01:48:00,560 --> 01:48:07,360
found visman perfectly who headed pasca prile on his debut brilliant stuff in the meantime nyong came

1053
01:48:07,360 --> 01:48:12,400
on for empoli and he opened his account from the spot in the 87th minute sending achawa the wrong

1054
01:48:12,400 --> 01:48:18,560
way skillfully the penalty was one of their fazzini broke forward and bar and was completely barged

1055
01:48:18,560 --> 01:48:24,480
down by pellegrino and the area it was like a rugby tackle and country lirio was ready to take the

1056
01:48:24,480 --> 01:48:32,240
penalty as the rigorist of the team but nyong just kept fucking insisting he was so annoying

1057
01:48:32,240 --> 01:48:37,840
so annoying there man he didn't stop he wouldn't move like a hamburger move a burger move you're

1058
01:48:37,840 --> 01:48:42,320
gonna give it to me did you play for me lan you didn't play for me lan i played for me lan i'm

1059
01:48:42,320 --> 01:48:46,720
thinking he took it really well he took it really well he converted very confidently at the end as

1060
01:48:46,720 --> 01:48:53,680
well yeah so i think was it the country lady the assist yes thank you very much um it was so first

1061
01:48:53,680 --> 01:48:58,960
pellegrino gave the ball away and nyong took the ball country and then he played it through the

1062
01:48:58,960 --> 01:49:05,120
country lary who ended up running towards goal with pyrola defending but not for long as a quick

1063
01:49:05,120 --> 01:49:11,520
shimmy sent pyrola to the ground and country lary cleanly finished taking his time to do so um getting

1064
01:49:11,520 --> 01:49:17,440
his goal um after generously giving his penalty to nyong instead of punching him in the fucking face

1065
01:49:18,160 --> 01:49:27,360
so yes clearly empoli worlds ahead of salernita and a project wise this season in their quest

1066
01:49:27,360 --> 01:49:33,120
for survival do you think nzagi shot himself in the foot a little bit by starting those four new

1067
01:49:33,120 --> 01:49:39,200
signings a completely new back three and zanoli on the right over there as well um that's a that's

1068
01:49:39,200 --> 01:49:49,920
a very good point bro um i mean i'm not really sure he had any options um the current well no man

1069
01:49:49,920 --> 01:49:53,920
you know what to be honest the starting 11 that he had been deploying had played had been playing

1070
01:49:53,920 --> 01:50:04,240
all right had to be fair recently fazio ghiomber and pasalides were injured well so that means that

1071
01:50:04,240 --> 01:50:10,480
boarding should have started but that's pretty much it yeah but yeah um zanoli you know what you're

1072
01:50:10,480 --> 01:50:17,120
getting he probably thought you know an offensive outlet you know um but again young not much experience

1073
01:50:17,680 --> 01:50:24,480
same as pellegrino same spellegrino same spirozzi so maybe uh you're probably right and in saying

1074
01:50:24,480 --> 01:50:31,200
that this result it's not a coincidence that this result that this performance sorry was their worst

1075
01:50:31,200 --> 01:50:36,960
one of their past five games because they probably they threw in five new players four new players

1076
01:50:36,960 --> 01:50:41,120
what and at the starting 11 you can't do that they you need to introduce them slowly no you know

1077
01:50:41,680 --> 01:50:46,560
so start with the guys who have built the system that you're that you're deploying and how good

1078
01:50:46,560 --> 01:50:50,960
are empalia at moving the ball in the sense that i don't want to overrate them you know they're still

1079
01:50:50,960 --> 01:50:55,920
a team that are battling relegation but the difference to me between these two teams was

1080
01:50:55,920 --> 01:51:01,120
they both defend you know what i mean they they they're both capable of putting 11 men behind the

1081
01:51:01,120 --> 01:51:08,000
ball and playing a pragmatic style of football um but empalia to score three against salernetana

1082
01:51:08,000 --> 01:51:13,760
away from home shows that their goal scoring prowess under nicola has really really improved

1083
01:51:13,760 --> 01:51:19,040
this was the same team that in the opening seven or something games one of them score a

1084
01:51:19,040 --> 01:51:25,920
fucking single goal yeah so this really shows massive growth for them absolutely absolutely man

1085
01:51:25,920 --> 01:51:33,200
um empalia do look like a like one of the better sides in the in that relegation battled right now

1086
01:51:33,200 --> 01:51:40,400
with nicola mm-hmm yeah i honestly at at the moment now i know it's early stages of new

1087
01:51:40,400 --> 01:51:45,520
management but at the moment i i see them as much better than the other teams that are battling

1088
01:51:45,520 --> 01:51:50,000
relegation at the moment i see them better than frozen on it i see them better than verona better

1089
01:51:50,000 --> 01:51:56,480
than caliari better than salernetana we'll see how they do in games moving forward against tougher

1090
01:51:56,480 --> 01:52:02,320
opponents but this is the same side that force that draw out of uve as well sending them on a

1091
01:52:02,320 --> 01:52:10,720
fucking spider they're currently now as we speak in 16th on 21 points just two ahead of verona so

1092
01:52:10,720 --> 01:52:16,720
relax while salernetana dead last 13 points caliari being five points ahead of them and if

1093
01:52:16,720 --> 01:52:22,320
caliari are five points ahead of you you're in trouble spoiler alert dove then nicola keeps them

1094
01:52:22,320 --> 01:52:27,600
up gets sucked seven games into the next season and disappears into the shadows only to come back

1095
01:52:27,600 --> 01:52:33,760
the next time a team is facing relegation yes sir so yes um i have one more game and it's

1096
01:52:33,760 --> 01:52:42,640
sasuolo one torino one so sasuolo started with their 4-2-3-1 formation with conciling ol pederson

1097
01:52:42,640 --> 01:52:47,120
on the right doig on the left with vt and the relish at the back and rike and lepani where the

1098
01:52:47,120 --> 01:52:51,360
midfield double pivot with by rami on the right lauri and teo on the left and towards vet playing

1099
01:52:51,360 --> 01:53:03,520
behind bin amonti it was a thing where is berardi where is berardi i believe he is injured i'll read

1100
01:53:03,520 --> 01:53:09,680
out the torino line up in the meantime it was a 3434 torino with milikovic salvage and goal

1101
01:53:09,680 --> 01:53:14,880
ricardo regigas lavato angigia at the back in case i forget to mention ricardo regigas did

1102
01:53:14,880 --> 01:53:20,080
suffer and injured this game valentino lazaro was on the left bellanova was on the right

1103
01:53:20,080 --> 01:53:25,360
elecanta mesi were in the middle with duvan zappa atan sanabria playing up front with

1104
01:53:25,360 --> 01:53:32,240
vlasic sasuolo ended their losing streak essentially with a one-one draw as disappointing as it looks

1105
01:53:32,240 --> 01:53:41,920
originally um they they had been on a three match losing streak and um they this is okay i'm gonna

1106
01:53:41,920 --> 01:53:47,600
i'm gonna wear this differently bro a one-one draw that would be seen as a negative for both teams

1107
01:53:47,600 --> 01:53:54,160
in usual circumstances can be seen as a positive for both because sasuolo and their losing streak

1108
01:53:54,160 --> 01:54:00,560
and torino extend their unbeaten run the five games so you know what win-win this game this is

1109
01:54:00,560 --> 01:54:06,720
the biscotta as they call it in italian no when both teams share the spoils in a in a game instead

1110
01:54:06,720 --> 01:54:13,840
of taking points of each other yeah sasuolo um scored first through penamonti within the opening

1111
01:54:13,840 --> 01:54:22,160
five minutes and it was a powerful header by by the big moody italian shortly duvan zappa atan

1112
01:54:22,160 --> 01:54:27,360
equalized for torino before the 10 minute mark this was courtesy of a brilliant raul bellanova

1113
01:54:27,360 --> 01:54:32,320
assist raul bellanova has really been incredible for torino since you're joining one of their best

1114
01:54:32,320 --> 01:54:38,080
players man yeah zappa atan vlasic had opportunities to take the lead but their shots missed the target

1115
01:54:38,080 --> 01:54:45,360
and the second half um eventually became a weird end to end affair where both teams adopted a very

1116
01:54:45,360 --> 01:54:51,040
direct approach and the final 20 minutes as svala dominated and melinkovic salvage made a very good

1117
01:54:51,040 --> 01:54:57,760
save on our mandel orienta to deny him um controversy arose late into the game when mattio alovato

1118
01:54:57,760 --> 01:55:03,520
avoided a second yellow card for a cynical foul looked like it could have been a red card on the

1119
01:55:03,520 --> 01:55:10,640
one yeah quite quite um lucky to get away with it greg war the fell the thrill had a late attempt

1120
01:55:10,640 --> 01:55:16,400
for sasuala him is the target of course and the match ended one one yeah just once our previous

1121
01:55:16,400 --> 01:55:24,240
query berardi volpato tolyan boloka and obiang all injured yes torino also had bon giorno linetti

1122
01:55:24,240 --> 01:55:30,960
and shores injured as well yeah shores bro shores your new fanta calcio i fucking had no idea he was

1123
01:55:30,960 --> 01:55:36,880
injured bro i was also mediating the entire font i think i was stressed because i got a shores sure

1124
01:55:36,880 --> 01:55:42,240
fuck it you're calling them out the silence must have made your heart skip a beat or literally

1125
01:55:42,240 --> 01:55:50,800
literally about whatever i'm first shores one no one says it first in every single fun time

1126
01:55:50,800 --> 01:55:56,960
participating in that's good man that's good but the season is long season is long and fenna

1127
01:55:56,960 --> 01:56:03,200
i could watch our roadway down in eighth so i want your back brother yeah speaking of down

1128
01:56:03,760 --> 01:56:10,000
sasuala are in 17th place madonna 20 points um this win actually took them out of the relegation

1129
01:56:10,000 --> 01:56:14,560
pool as they would have been below verona because they have a worse goal difference than helas verona

1130
01:56:14,560 --> 01:56:20,080
madonna fun fact offer it's off honestly when do they suck their manager bro i don't know at this point

1131
01:56:21,120 --> 01:56:26,000
like what what more needs to happen for them to suck their manager because don't you see had a very

1132
01:56:26,000 --> 01:56:32,640
promising start but things have stagnated for me this game was between two managers man who

1133
01:56:33,760 --> 01:56:39,760
have stagnated if there are two managers who have spent too long at the same club without any results

1134
01:56:39,760 --> 01:56:46,800
it's these two man i agree deonisi and urich and urich is very talented he's squala gasperini

1135
01:56:48,960 --> 01:56:52,160
fantastic tactician would love to see him elsewhere to be honest see what he could do

1136
01:56:52,160 --> 01:56:59,040
but sasuala man and the deonisi sasuala relationship i think is fizzling out i think

1137
01:56:59,760 --> 01:57:05,280
he took over from deserbi who had laid these incredible foundation i feel like the the further

1138
01:57:05,280 --> 01:57:09,680
we get from the deserbi era the worse sasuala get it's like deonisi isn't stamping his own

1139
01:57:10,560 --> 01:57:14,880
philosophy on the team i don't know maybe that's harsh but look at them they're they're

1140
01:57:14,880 --> 01:57:21,200
regressing to a point where relegation is on the table absolutely you are saying sorry sasuala in

1141
01:57:21,200 --> 01:57:26,480
sasuala yes are in 17th with 20 points one point outside of the relegation pulantorino

1142
01:57:26,480 --> 01:57:32,080
are in 10th with 33 points perfect the final game that is going to be very briefly covered is

1143
01:57:32,080 --> 01:57:38,480
monza nil verona nil monza we're coming off another nil nil draw away to udenese guess what the

1144
01:57:38,480 --> 01:57:44,000
problem with monza is they're struggling to score verona coming off at 2 on away lost to napoli and

1145
01:57:44,000 --> 01:57:49,600
the previous encounter between these two sides was verona one monza three now i thought that this

1146
01:57:49,600 --> 01:57:57,680
match was full of scrappy attempts by both sides who clearly struggle to create clear cut chances

1147
01:57:57,680 --> 01:58:03,120
if you were to look at the quality of the chances that were created they were very minimal there was

1148
01:58:03,120 --> 01:58:11,040
a lot of andrea colpani trying to create something out of nothing um for monza whilst verona you know

1149
01:58:11,040 --> 01:58:17,200
they they also significantly struggled um to create any chances they started new boys viderski

1150
01:58:17,200 --> 01:58:23,440
um who jake has been raving about over the the past two episodes he struggled this game to make

1151
01:58:24,400 --> 01:58:31,040
an impact but to be honest so did the rest of his teammates it was an elite to be fair i thought

1152
01:58:31,040 --> 01:58:37,360
for the runesho looked quite good and and he was probably the highlight of verona's performances

1153
01:58:37,920 --> 01:58:44,240
however it's hard to to highlight an outstanding performer from each side when they both managed

1154
01:58:44,240 --> 01:58:51,520
11 and 10 shots but only one was on target um so very scrappy affair between these two teams

1155
01:58:51,520 --> 01:58:55,840
i'm very disappointed in the way colombo unfortunately has been performing for

1156
01:58:56,400 --> 01:59:03,840
monza yes he's been doing this how he's been out on loan he has he has periods of promise

1157
01:59:03,840 --> 01:59:07,760
where he plays very well and then he stagnates towards the end of the season he did this at

1158
01:59:07,760 --> 01:59:14,160
spull wherein in like 10 games or 12 games something that he scored six goals and then went invisible to

1159
01:59:14,160 --> 01:59:18,320
the rest of the season he did that lecture i did that lecture and now he's doing the same thing

1160
01:59:18,960 --> 01:59:25,920
at um at monza melan have actually um explored the idea of including him in certain deals and they do

1161
01:59:26,960 --> 01:59:32,560
we do often see articles which say colombo which include colombo's name in a post potential swap

1162
01:59:32,560 --> 01:59:39,680
deal basically yeah yeah i believe the last time we saw that was a couple of weeks ago in january

1163
01:59:39,680 --> 01:59:47,520
so you're absolutely right uh when it comes to the standings monza are in 11th place on 30 points

1164
01:59:47,520 --> 01:59:55,200
whilst helas verona find themselves in 18th or 19 points just one point from safety so that's all

1165
01:59:55,200 --> 01:59:58,720
we have time for guys thank you very much for listening if you've made it this far and we'll see

1166
01:59:58,720 --> 02:00:06,400
