00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:14,000
Another perfect strike from Paul Pogba makes it Javentus 2 Oudene Zinil

00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,000
Hello and welcome back to Season 2 of Serie A Spotlight. We are your hosts Matt and Jake.

3
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:29,000
And we've got a couple of guests with us today and if you're the true OG Serie A Spotlight fans

4
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,000
you might have heard of them before. They're the two Jabolanis.

5
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:40,000
It's Luke, I think you remember me. The un-elegant one, the one talks like a rough cunt of course.

6
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,000
Explain your theory bro.

7
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:50,000
So I think that Luke sounds like a working class man and I think Santi sounds like he drives an Audi TT and lives in Slema.

8
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000
Close. We should see what he's driving.

9
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:56,000
It's a Skoda Fabian from Sweden.

10
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,000
The AC sounds like it's his own animal.

11
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,000
It's asthmatic, my car is asthmatic.

12
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:08,000
At the point the car started coughing and I was looking at him like is the car going to explode?

13
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,000
He's like, no it's just the AC. I was like, it's very normal.

14
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:16,000
Insane, insane. So if you didn't catch that, his name is Santi.

15
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:25,000
He was here last time as well and they did a great job. So we said why not invite them one more time but we could all combine forces.

16
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:33,000
I think it's important for you guys to understand now that we've been drinking for the past hour and a half.

17
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,000
I would say maybe like 7.

18
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,000
We've just been trying stuff.

19
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,000
Two hours and a half actually.

20
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:43,000
We're hanging up bed sheets to improve the sound.

21
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,000
Should we take a photo?

22
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,000
This looks like a crack house right there.

23
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:51,000
I really hope it's doing you guys a favor. I hope the audio is better.

24
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:57,000
But what we're going to do today is basically go through the table of last season.

25
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,000
So Milan first.

26
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,000
And we're going to work our way down.

27
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,000
We're going to talk about the transfers that have already happened.

28
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,000
Touch a bit upon rumors.

29
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,000
And basically we're going to let you guys know if we think they're good deals or if they're shit.

30
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,000
So I don't know if there's anything you want to add to that.

31
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,000
Milan.

32
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,000
Divock.

33
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,000
Shitty G.

34
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:22,000
Why is he shit?

35
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:33,000
He's not to Milan's quality because I feel like he's a player who's at most at the mid table team.

36
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,000
But he played for Liverpool.

37
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,000
But he played for Liverpool on the bench and came on a handful of times.

38
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,000
That's what the goalie and Chavez defined that.

39
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,000
Yes, many important two of them.

40
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:47,000
That means that he could be a superstar, but doesn't make him a good player though.

41
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,000
Isn't making a player that Milan need for him to start.

42
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:54,000
I think with aging strikers that you have in Ibra and Giroud.

43
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,000
There were way better options.

44
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,000
I would have even taken Bellotti on a free then I would have bought.

45
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,000
Or Ricky Persson.

46
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,000
Really? Yes, man.

47
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,000
Maybe because of the CEO experience. Fair enough.

48
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,000
But this guy is a guy who was training with Liverpool.

49
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,000
I remember a week in week out.

50
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,000
He's playing with fucking the Liverpool players like.

51
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,000
And he's going to come to a place where they believe in him.

52
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,000
And he's going to be a protagonist.

53
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,000
Or at least try to be a protagonist.

54
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:21,000
Aside from that, you mentioned about him not being a good player in your opinion.

55
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:25,000
Sometimes I don't think a player needs to necessarily be a good player.

56
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,000
He needs to fit the system.

57
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:32,000
And what Milan have going for them right now is they've got Giroud and they've got Zlatan.

58
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:35,000
They've got two tall strikers slightly on the slower side.

59
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,000
Very technically gifted. Play with their back towards goal.

60
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,000
They've got those two kind of strikers.

61
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,000
They don't have 90 minutes in them technically.

62
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:51,000
And what Milan are investing in now is a free transfer for a player in his prime with some serious Champions League experience.

63
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:52,000
With room for growth.

64
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,000
I wouldn't call him in his prime.

65
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,000
He has room for growth.

66
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,000
27 years old in his physical prime at least.

67
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,000
And that's the point because the others are old.

68
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,000
He can't explode in his 31.

69
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,000
Exactly.

70
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,000
But this is not the striker Milan should be pursuing if you've just won the league.

71
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,000
I'm sorry man.

72
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,000
But to me it's a shocker.

73
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,000
But there were other things that needed to be done.

74
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,000
Like for example many players needed to be redeemed.

75
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,000
Maldini and Massara took forever to be redeemed as well.

76
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,000
Look at Messias, Florenzi.

77
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,000
These are all deals that had to happen as well.

78
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,000
I don't know if you want to say something.

79
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:29,000
I was going to say that Origi, I understand your point because we discussed this like yesterday.

80
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:36,000
And you said that if Origi was good, another big team in England for example would have snapped him up.

81
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,000
Agreed.

82
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,000
And I see where you're coming from.

83
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:52,000
But at Liverpool, Origi had to compete with Mane, Salah and maybe not this year but the year before a very good Firmino.

84
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:58,000
And in a system which the way Liverpool play they needed a really good dynamic front three.

85
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,000
And Origi is your classic Ponta striker.

86
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:06,000
Just play the ball into him, he lays off to the wingers and then he's running into the box to knock it in.

87
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:10,000
Which is why Serie A I think is a really good move for him personally.

88
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:15,000
He's probably looking at other big strikers in Serie A because look how many there are.

89
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,000
There's Lukaku of course who came back to talk about it.

90
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,000
That person later.

91
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:23,000
There's Dekko, there's all these big players.

92
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:28,000
These players do well so I think it's a good move for Milan personally.

93
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:29,000
And he was free now.

94
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,000
He came on three so he's free.

95
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,000
Which is honestly nothing to lose.

96
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,000
This is going to be a profit regardless of what happens.

97
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,000
He can flop and we can sell him for a profit.

98
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:38,000
Let's waste time.

99
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:39,000
Let's waste effort and time.

100
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:44,000
But at the end of the day there are three strikers who can be rotated so if he flops at the end of the day we still have two strikers who might do well.

101
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,000
And Giroud.

102
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,000
You've won the league man.

103
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:48,000
Continue.

104
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,000
That's why there's a right winger man.

105
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000
The ones that have been mentioned are all big names man.

106
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,000
Well all big names.

107
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,000
There was Marius, there was Ziak mentioned.

108
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:01,000
I'm not saying anything about those but you go for...

109
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,000
To me it's still a high point.

110
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,000
It will always be a shocker.

111
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,000
So if you're Maldini who's...

112
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,000
You said Berlotti who you would have...

113
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,000
He's free as well man.

114
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,000
He scored a hundred goals in Serie A.

115
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,000
But he's much older and...

116
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,000
Not much older.

117
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,000
No, almost the same age.

118
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,000
27 or 28.

119
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,000
I thought he was 30.

120
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,000
I thought he was 30.

121
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,000
So what are you...

122
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,000
So we can use the same...

123
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:27,000
But then you know what it is, Milan want the next step now to do better in the Champions League.

124
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:32,000
And Origi is someone who the stage isn't new for and Berlotti will be shitting himself on the stage in the Champions League.

125
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,000
When he was in Liverpool's team, I'm sorry.

126
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,000
But he actually improved the side.

127
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,000
Him against Barca, he improved the side.

128
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:48,000
I know that Liverpool were on a high, they were coming back from obviously losing what was a 2-0, something like a 3-0 to Barca and the opening leg.

129
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,000
So they were all on a high to kind of prove themselves.

130
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:59,000
But the fact that the man stood up to the occasion on the biggest stage as well, no one rated Origi, two games, scored in the final as well.

131
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,000
Semi-final and final he scored.

132
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:09,000
But dude, if you're that good and if you're saying he's good and he came on and he was a good player and knows how to compose and stuff, I'm not saying he can't.

133
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:14,000
But in this season where Firmino was out of sorts and he had a good chance to replace him.

134
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:19,000
But there was Joata then who was incredible and Diaz who came in and he was the best.

135
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:25,000
Diaz and Kulusevski were the best January signings the Premier League had.

136
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:30,000
I get the fact that he didn't get minutes though, I could say something about how good he is of a trainer.

137
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:34,000
Maybe he wasn't that hard a trainer, maybe that didn't win him a place.

138
00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:38,000
I think it's more his style of play and how Klopp wants to play his Liverpool team.

139
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,000
I think it says more about Liverpool's style than Origi.

140
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,000
If you were a bad man you wouldn't have a song as simple as that.

141
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,000
I hope he scores more than he goes this season, I know that he won't.

142
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,000
No of course not, he's not going to score 20 goals.

143
00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:58,000
He scores 11, Giroud gets 11 himself and Zlatan gets 7, that's alright, he can win the league.

144
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:04,000
I think there's a bit too much confidence in winning and I think Inter and Juventus have done much better work.

145
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:09,000
When it comes to winning the league I don't have confidence, I'm not as confident at all for next season.

146
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:15,000
Looking at Juventus, it's not even Inter, it's Juve that terrify him.

147
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:20,000
You have a question mark as well, they still need to build that squad.

148
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,000
They still need to get their defence.

149
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:29,000
You look up front it's fantastic but the defence is looking scary.

150
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,000
Who's?

151
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:31,000
Juve.

152
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,000
They've lost on most every one.

153
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,000
They look a bit like Argentina.

154
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,000
They've made great signings, lovely signings.

155
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:46,000
But they have to look at the back, how much money do they have left?

156
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,000
They bought Di Maria.

157
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,000
Depends if they get the league done.

158
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,000
Wasn't Di Maria free?

159
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,000
He was, but his wages are high expensive.

160
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,000
So he's not free.

161
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,000
You don't pay a transfer fee.

162
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,000
Yes but you pay less.

163
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:11,000
For FFP it's a big deal.

164
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:17,000
Long term it's not even a bad deal considering they had players of the likes of Ramsey on that.

165
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:21,000
I think we'll get into the talk about Juve and so on.

166
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,000
Let's see if it's done.

167
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,000
They're moving on.

168
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,000
So we discussed Origi with Milan.

169
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:35,000
Obviously when it comes to confirmed signings Milan have since redeemed a couple of players.

170
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,000
And those were?

171
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,000
Milan, Adli and Pobega.

172
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,000
Adli and Pobega.

173
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,000
And Florenzi and Messias have been redeemed.

174
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,000
And Florenzi and Messias.

175
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,000
So those are the signings in for Milan right now.

176
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:51,000
We know there's been a lot of rumours about who Milan are going to bring in.

177
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,000
But one thing I want to address first is Botman.

178
00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:04,000
The fact that for around four months Milan fans and I strongly believe that the Milan board thought that Botman was going to start next season as a Milan player.

179
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,000
I thought that for a fact.

180
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,000
I knew it in my heart that he was going to join.

181
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,000
Another Simikhan.

182
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,000
Exactly.

183
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:14,000
Every time they asked him about Milan he seemed to smile about it.

184
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,000
He seemed really confident about the move.

185
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:16,000
He wanted it to be done.

186
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,000
Milan spoke highly of Botman.

187
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,000
Ends up not going through.

188
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,000
Newcastle offer more money than Milan.

189
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:25,000
The player has to accept because the club accepted and he has a good relationship with them.

190
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,000
I guess.

191
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:27,000
Whatever.

192
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,000
What do you make of Milan losing out on Botman?

193
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,000
Is it detrimental at all for the team?

194
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,000
Why are they sorted in that department?

195
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:38,000
Respect to Botman though for giving Lillecash a payday.

196
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,000
Like Kessy and Mignoli have just left on a free-hand.

197
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,000
As Milan fans we would appreciate that.

198
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:44,000
Where is Kessy going?

199
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,000
Kessy is bussing Larsa.

200
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,000
He failed to juggle the ball.

201
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,000
It always happens with Barsal.

202
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,000
The pressure is on really juggling that ball in front of the fans.

203
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,000
What I'll say about Botman is...

204
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,000
It's a loss.

205
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:03,000
I think Milan are going to miss someone because they needed someone to partner Tomori.

206
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,000
Although...

207
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,000
I say what I want about Kalulu.

208
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,000
I'm sure you guys love him.

209
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,000
But I think Kalulu is very, very good.

210
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:15,000
Is Kalulu-Tomori the partnership to win a league?

211
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,000
Debatable.

212
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,000
It was.

213
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,000
It can.

214
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,000
I think it can be.

215
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:25,000
But I think Botman could have helped even if he was a bit better on the ball.

216
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,000
And these are the things.

217
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:30,000
But then again you can't blame Botman for not being attracted as well.

218
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,000
Besides the Ligue 1 Premier League but also by the Newcastle project.

219
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,000
It's a big one.

220
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,000
Because they do look like...

221
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:42,000
The signings they've made, although they're not made very big ones besides Bruno Gomireš.

222
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,000
All the others are very, very smart signings.

223
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:45,000
And they've all worked.

224
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,000
Not one of them has failed so far.

225
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,000
They're on the up.

226
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:51,000
And they could be fighting for Europe next year.

227
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,000
So it is attractive for him.

228
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:56,000
And so they're the English Monza.

229
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:03,000
I personally think that Milan losing out on Botman, obviously they lost out on a fantastic player.

230
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:10,000
I'm talking about one of the young centre backs that has hailed as a future god pretty much.

231
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Everyone rates Botman very, very highly and obviously Milan missed out.

232
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:18,000
However, one thing I want as a Milan fan is no matter what is happening in the market,

233
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,000
I just want there to be improvement.

234
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,000
I want there to be a team that is the best it could be.

235
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:31,000
And with that being said, I think Kalulu and Tomori, that partnership, is Milan at the best it could be in that department.

236
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:37,000
Last season it was when Kalulu and Tomori got some continuity, we barely conceded any goals.

237
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,000
Milan barely conceded any goals at the end of the season.

238
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,000
Granted I know that things are different next year.

239
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,000
There are some serious players back in this area.

240
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,000
I think this area is regaining its attractiveness slowly over time.

241
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,000
They did it against Atletico as well.

242
00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,000
They did it against some big teams, Milan kept a clean sheet.

243
00:12:55,000 --> 00:13:01,000
Yes, listen, last year Milan were definitely the most consistent team and they deserved to win.

244
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,000
I'm not going to argue that even though I don't particularly like Milan.

245
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,000
Especially in the defensive department.

246
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,000
You don't like Milan?

247
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,000
No, I don't particularly like Milan.

248
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,000
Why not?

249
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:18,000
I don't see the way you play football attractive for me personally.

250
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:22,000
It's very defensive, very contained, but then suddenly there's this quick movement.

251
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:27,000
Then you get the ball in, then you have these simulations.

252
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,000
No matter what it is, it's a team effort.

253
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:30,000
That's what I like about Milan.

254
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,000
That's what I say to myself when I think about them.

255
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:38,000
I say for all it's worth, even though I might have reservations and so on, I prefer other teams in this area.

256
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,000
It's okay.

257
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:43,000
They had the best team spirit and it won them the league.

258
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,000
Unfortunately for one month something happened.

259
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,000
I think they were all tired at one point.

260
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:53,000
But at the same time, don't disrespect Piolli like that because Piolli's tactics were on point.

261
00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:54,000
I'm not saying anything about the manager.

262
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,000
He's a good manager.

263
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,000
But he is right.

264
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:01,000
The play does happen in phases, especially during some games particularly.

265
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,000
When there's a low block, you see it a lot.

266
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:10,000
You see failed attempts of creativity, like the whole half would pause, the first half would pause, and one shot on target.

267
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,000
Like, Jesus Christ.

268
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,000
It's very slow.

269
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,000
You tire them out and then you do find that gap.

270
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,000
You're consistently annoying.

271
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:22,000
And suddenly there is that good opportunity.

272
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,000
Then you start scoring.

273
00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,000
Milan are quite unorthodox as well.

274
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,000
I think teams like Atalanta, you know what you're going to get.

275
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:32,000
You're going to get that firepower running down the wing, quick 1-2s down the middle.

276
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,000
You know what you're going to get with these teams.

277
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:37,000
I feel like with Milan, you never know because are they going to play it down lay-out?

278
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:38,000
Are they going to overlap?

279
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,000
Is Lay-Out going to cut in himself?

280
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,000
Is Giroud going to be playing the ball and he's going to lay it down?

281
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,000
I feel like Milan could attack from so many different directions last season, except for the right-hand side.

282
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:51,000
Most of the play did come down the middle or towards the left.

283
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,000
Most of them towards the left.

284
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,000
Did you send anyone for a right midfield?

285
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:56,000
Not yet.

286
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,000
What's the most realistic signing?

287
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:06,000
Let's go through them right now because as it stands, Milan are still favourites to sign Renato Sanchez,

288
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,000
but it's been that way for a fucking while and Milan have a lot of money.

289
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,000
They're laddering PSG and Milan.

290
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,000
But he's a replacement for Kessy though.

291
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,000
Yes.

292
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:16,000
He'll be fadaling with Baracer.

293
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:21,000
I still worry more about the right midfield than the centre at the middle.

294
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,000
I feel like Tonali and someone else, somehow you'll manage.

295
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,000
But the right midfield has to be fixed.

296
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,000
And I'm just wondering who you have to buy someone.

297
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,000
I don't know who it's going to be.

298
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:35,000
What happened with the last Zieg?

299
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:41,000
The last thing I read was he changed his agent.

300
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,000
He sacked his agent and he had done the status on Instagram.

301
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:46,000
There's always this fucking shit.

302
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:50,000
And it was one of those, it was I can't need to be represented by myself for my true interests.

303
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,000
I was like, oh my God.

304
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:56,000
I'm a businessman.

305
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,000
It was weird that he came out with that.

306
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:03,000
But clearly I think he wants to move from Chelsea.

307
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,000
Now that Chelsea signed Sterling as well.

308
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,000
They don't play on the same side.

309
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:08,000
Sterling would play on the left.

310
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:14,000
But Chelsea is changing their formation, it seems, as the resident Chelsea fan here.

311
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,000
It looks like we're going to change to a 4-3-3.

312
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,000
Sorry we brought a Chelsea fan.

313
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:23,000
We needed some more information on football.

314
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:28,000
So it looks like Chelsea might change to a 4-3-3.

315
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:38,000
And Zieg, although he's a proper wing guy, if to use the FIFA terms, he's more RM than RW.

316
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:45,000
He's very good playing off strikers and playing off camps.

317
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:53,000
When he's out wide, he's not that quick or has the incredible 1v1 ability to take on fullbacks and do these things.

318
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,000
And he's also made out of glass.

319
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:58,000
So if you buy him, good luck with that.

320
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:05,000
Because every time he had a good spell at Chelsea, he ended up getting a bad injury and missed good periods.

321
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:09,000
I think on the right side though, Milan really do value an industrious player.

322
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:12,000
Salah Makaric contributes so much defensively.

323
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,000
He doesn't do so much though as yet.

324
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,000
I have to disappoint you defensively.

325
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,000
That is the more conservative side.

326
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:21,000
Calabria does tend to stay back a little bit more.

327
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:25,000
And on the left side, obviously, you have Leo and Theo.

328
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,000
You are getting a Harry Potter though with his left foot.

329
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,000
He's magical.

330
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,000
And great in the final third as well.

331
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:34,000
He gets it done in the final third as well.

332
00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:38,000
And his dead balls are brilliant and the way he reads the game is good.

333
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:42,000
So if you actually get him, you've definitely improved in that department.

334
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:44,000
Now I have three words for you.

335
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:48,000
Charles de Ketteler.

336
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,000
How are you feeling about him, boys?

337
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,000
I think he looks really good.

338
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:56,000
Bro, if that goes through, I'm going to be a happy man.

339
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:00,000
I don't know too much because obviously I'm working on highlights here, boys.

340
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:04,000
But he looks like he's serious raw talent, man.

341
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:05,000
He looks really good.

342
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:10,000
What I've seen from him is again, YouTube makes everyone look like Neymar.

343
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,000
Well, it made Neymar look like Neymar.

344
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,000
So he looks good.

345
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:18,000
But he's a cam, right?

346
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,000
He's a number 10.

347
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,000
He could be right wing and cam, but preferably cam.

348
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,000
Because in that cam role, you have...

349
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:32,000
In that attacking midfielder role, in the number 10 role, you have Adli as well and Diaz.

350
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,000
And if you want, you always have to play...

351
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,000
He's better than both.

352
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:37,000
Yeah, exactly.

353
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,000
But you always need to play the best player in the best position.

354
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:44,000
So in that case, then you'd have to put, you know, if you don't sign Aziz or someone else,

355
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,000
then you'd have to put Brehme or someone there.

356
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,000
Adli might be able to play deeper, I think.

357
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:50,000
Like a holding?

358
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:51,000
Yeah.

359
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,000
He's quite physical as a player.

360
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:55,000
But I would say Spinal third.

361
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:59,000
It depends because like Benazir Tonali, I think are the fixed ones.

362
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,000
I think it's carrying the ball up a little bit.

363
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:06,000
Rather than have a say in the final third, I think it'll be carrying the ball up more than anything.

364
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,000
I think it'll dig it out from the...

365
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:13,000
But I really like how Ziyech looks as a player.

366
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:17,000
Like I know that the right wing needs to be discussed probably more than the attacking midfielder.

367
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:20,000
And I would like to see Mila show a bit more attention to the right wing,

368
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:22,000
especially now with Castillejo leaving.

369
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:27,000
I know that normally we wouldn't want Castillejo to be anywhere near the football.

370
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:31,000
But with him leaving anyway, simply Mila need an upgrade in that position.

371
00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:34,000
Salah Makars is on the weaker side nowadays.

372
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,000
He's a little bit moody after he signed his contract.

373
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:43,000
So before he was brilliant and commentators when he was playing in the Champions League were hailing him, Diaz and Léa.

374
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,000
And the position managers as well, hailing Salah Makars.

375
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,000
Literally.

376
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:51,000
He puts pen to paper, signs a contract and he's shocking, man.

377
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,000
Shocking as soon as he signs.

378
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:59,000
And we're like, yeah, finally a player who commits and a good player like his own form.

379
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,000
And then it just dips totally.

380
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:05,000
So yes, please, Milan, show a bit more attention to the right wing.

381
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,000
We're talking about the Kettler though, man.

382
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:10,000
We're getting fucking fucked up.

383
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:18,000
We're talking about the Kettler and then we're talking about the right wing.

384
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,000
And then it's Matt Wittener around.

385
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:26,000
It's like we've all been quiet and like for the last four minutes we've just been listening to him.

386
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,000
Bitch.

387
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:32,000
About how Salah Makars was great and then he became shit, man.

388
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:36,000
The Kettler kind of was really good.

389
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,000
It's like Iličić, man, the way he plays, like it's kind of cool.

390
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:40,000
Iličić to Bologna.

391
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,000
That's a fucking...

392
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:43,000
That is a smart signing.

393
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,000
So Bologna up next, all right? Ready?

394
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:50,000
Let's stay on Milan a little bit.

395
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:55,000
Noah Lang's been mentioned a little bit here and there that seemed to die down quite quickly.

396
00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,000
There's an apathetic problem on that guy.

397
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:04,000
But I think since Milan were originally going to get Buttman and that obviously fell through because he's going to Newcastle,

398
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,000
Milan are clearly interested in signing a centre-back, no?

399
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,000
And there's been talks about a cherry be joining Milan.

400
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:15,000
I don't know how relevant those still are, but you're in a lot, so I think you'll have an opinion.

401
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,000
And he's an Esassuolo kid.

402
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:18,000
He was an Esassuolo.

403
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:20,000
Esassuolo legend.

404
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:21,000
He was, he was.

405
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:23,000
What do you think, boys?

406
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,000
The man's obviously a bit worn out in this day and age, but...

407
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,000
I think he would be a good replacement, regardless.

408
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:39,000
I think he'd give you some experience and when RJB is in form on me, like you notice he's on the pitch.

409
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:44,000
He is stopping balls, he's creating plays, he can cross quite well.

410
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,000
He has quite a good long ball.

411
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:47,000
And...

412
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,000
RJB is an Italian centre-back.

413
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:50,000
A starter.

414
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,000
He's not an upgrade.

415
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:53,000
He could play like 15 games.

416
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,000
He robs your bench.

417
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,000
He could play games where he's important.

418
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:59,000
Like important games, like against Udinese or Atalante.

419
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,000
Overall, what I would say is you can't leave...

420
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:07,000
If you're going to get someone like a cherry be on for a squad depth, I feel like a man of his age,

421
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,000
he needs to be introduced to the game quite frequently to stay on top of it.

422
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,000
I know he'll be training and he's a professional athlete and stuff like that,

423
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,000
but he does need to remain playing minutes.

424
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:18,000
And if he doesn't get those minutes, will Milan give him those minutes?

425
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,000
I would do it to Mario Atreba personally.

426
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:21,000
Starting.

427
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:22,000
I would start them.

428
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:23,000
No way.

429
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:24,000
You're a terrorist.

430
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,000
Why, man?

431
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:31,000
Why would you do that to Scarulo after what he demonstrated, man?

432
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,000
He's so young and so talented, you don't want to push him away, man.

433
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,000
With young players, you don't want to burn them out, man.

434
00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:38,000
And that's what happens a lot with young players.

435
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,000
You know, but you can trust him, man.

436
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:41,000
If it gets too much, you bench him, granted.

437
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,000
But right now, he doesn't deserve to be benched, I think.

438
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:45,000
He doesn't deserve to be replaced.

439
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:46,000
This is Atreba.

440
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,000
He had two bad seasons.

441
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,000
I mean, this is not a bad player.

442
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,000
I would say he had two bad seasons.

443
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:52,000
I would say he had two bad seasons.

444
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,000
Like everyone else, that's all I think.

445
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,000
I'm just saying over time, if I know...

446
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,000
If Atreba plays the way I think Atreba plays,

447
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:02,000
which is what I know from the last three, four, five seasons,

448
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,000
he's consistently quite good.

449
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,000
He gets an important goal somehow every season,

450
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,000
which wins a game or wins two games.

451
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,000
And sometimes you need it from a defender.

452
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,000
I'll take him.

453
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,000
Kalulu also scored some winners, so I can't say anything against that.

454
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,000
I'll take him, but not as a replacement of Kalulu.

455
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,000
I'll take him to rotate a little bit with whoever needs to be rotated,

456
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:22,000
but I won't take him as a starter.

457
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,000
I think eventually he would start up.

458
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:25,000
Maybe.

459
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:26,000
It comes...

460
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,000
With some leadership, maybe.

461
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,000
That's what I was going to say.

462
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,000
Having two centre backs in young centre backs like Kalulu and Tomori,

463
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:38,000
the only negative I'm seeing there is that there's the leadership.

464
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,000
Now, although Tomori is quite experienced

465
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:44,000
and Kalulu has very good defensive qualities,

466
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,000
sometimes you just need that cool head at the back

467
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,000
when things are going bad, who's just going to make...

468
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:50,000
The John-Taker.

469
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:51,000
Exactly.

470
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:53,000
Perfect, perfect.

471
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:54,000
Exactly.

472
00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,000
Kiss me.

473
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:59,000
Just to calm things down and say, we're going to play through this,

474
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,000
stick to the game plan.

475
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,000
And I know Calabria is Milan's captain, right?

476
00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,000
So you have a defender who's a captain.

477
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:11,000
But I think having a centre back who's a leader is very important

478
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:15,000
because the centre back's main job at the end of the day is...

479
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:16,000
To maintain the formation.

480
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,000
Exactly.

481
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,000
Is to keep everyone in line.

482
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,000
And having a bit more of a leader there could help.

483
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:23,000
So that could help.

484
00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,000
Is that leader at Cherubi and then...

485
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,000
And that's where the debate comes in.

486
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:28,000
He might be a tough man.

487
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,000
He certainly has experience, man.

488
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,000
And he's been lots of captain for I don't know how many years.

489
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,000
He's had important roles in this career.

490
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,000
He has, but then he looks at the post.

491
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:37,000
He's also a cancer survivor.

492
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,000
Yes, fair play.

493
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,000
I rate him quite well and I think if he's a Milan bowler,

494
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,000
over time he should be a core part of the team.

495
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:49,000
Mixed opinions by all of us,

496
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:53,000
but I do believe it is time to move on to Inter,

497
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:55,000
the second best team in Italy.

498
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,000
The winners of next season.

499
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,000
Oh, that's a bold statement.

500
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,000
Is it a landslide or is it close?

501
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,000
It's a hard one.

502
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,000
I don't think I can fairly predict.

503
00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:11,000
I think it's a landslide, but I don't think it will be.

504
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:15,000
I think it would be a landslide over Milan,

505
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,000
but Juventus would be a bit closer.

506
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,000
Juventus would be like within six points, I think.

507
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,000
We're throwing Milan away here.

508
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,000
No, I'd say third place.

509
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,000
I think Juve might come back a bit though.

510
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,000
Juve will come back, but Milan,

511
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:34,000
it's showing that the longer time goes on, the better they get.

512
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,000
So they're going to be in the mix over, believe you me.

513
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,000
But let's move on to Inter have confirmed.

514
00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,000
So so far it's Onana.

515
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,000
How are we feeling about Onana?

516
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:46,000
Brilliant, but apparently he's not going to start immediately.

517
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:50,000
I wouldn't start immediately, but he's one for two years' time.

518
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:52,000
Even less time.

519
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,000
I think he'll replace Handanovic this season.

520
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:58,000
I'm telling you, by World Cup he'll be the same.

521
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,000
It'll start rocky for Handanovic and Onana will step in.

522
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:04,000
I think Handanovic is one full season, then he retires.

523
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,000
Will it be a good season?

524
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,000
I think it will be, man.

525
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:12,000
If he has maintained some kind of fitness over summer,

526
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,000
because towards the end he was pretty good.

527
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:18,000
And what was this, sorry, sorry to bother you.

528
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,000
No, it's OK, I mean, that's all the same.

529
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,000
What was this about Onana?

530
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,000
There was a point where he was suspended.

531
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:30,000
Yeah, it was for, I think he failed a drug test.

532
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,000
It was after a Champions League game.

533
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,000
Cannabis.

534
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,000
I don't know what it was.

535
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:41,000
But I think he failed a drug test after a Champions League game.

536
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:50,000
But from what I heard, and then he failed all the doping subsequent tests as well.

537
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:56,000
But from what I heard, it wasn't an intentional one where he took performance and answers.

538
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:01,000
It was something he took and then it had these bad elements.

539
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,000
But he was banned for a year.

540
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:04,000
Like Boriello back in the day.

541
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,000
They were taking something for an STD app.

542
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,000
I remember.

543
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:15,000
UFC fighters, UFC fighters sometimes they get caught for doping.

544
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,000
They're like, you're taking some kind of steroid over here.

545
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,000
They'd be like, no, man, it can't be.

546
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:21,000
I'm not fucking taking steroids.

547
00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,000
I wouldn't have taken steroids, but who would have had a piece of steak

548
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:28,000
and the cow would have been fucking injected with steroids.

549
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:29,000
It transfers to the steak.

550
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:34,000
There was this Joel Romero, Joel Romero won a lawsuit against the UFC,

551
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:40,000
made around 8 million euros, bought a mansion, bought a Chevrolet, like massive dogs.

552
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,000
Like just living life, a Rolls Royce.

553
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,000
Just living the life, man.

554
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,000
But yes, that's on Ana's doping profile.

555
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,000
But I think I used to really like him when he was at Ajax.

556
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,000
I thought he was a decent keeper.

557
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:58,000
He did concede a P-roller in that semi-final then where they lost the spares

558
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:02,000
with the last goal which should never have been conceded.

559
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:07,000
But I think he's a good keeper and I do think he's an upgrade on Handanovic

560
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:10,000
in the immediate term as well.

561
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,000
Fair enough.

562
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:12,000
I think he needs to stop, man.

563
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,000
He hasn't been training for a year.

564
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,000
No, he has been training.

565
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,000
He's been back.

566
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,000
He's just not, he wasn't playing, he wasn't playing competitively.

567
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:20,000
It's different when you aren't playing as a keeper, man.

568
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:21,000
You get out of touch quickly.

569
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:24,000
Onana is a hot topic.

570
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:27,000
But there's Lukaku as well.

571
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:28,000
There's Lukaku.

572
00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:29,000
The legend is back.

573
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:30,000
Now, hold on, hold on.

574
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,000
Hold on.

575
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:39,000
It's a one-year loan, an 8 million no fee with no option or obligation clause.

576
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:43,000
8 million euros in a year is how much he's earning.

577
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:47,000
And he gets add-ons related to the team's performances.

578
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:51,000
How do we feel about this move overall as a business, as everything?

579
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:55,000
I think it's solid business from Inter after selling him for 18 million last year.

580
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:56,000
Fair enough.

581
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:57,000
97.

582
00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:01,000
So they've made a shit ton of money and they're only paying him 8 million a year.

583
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,000
OK.

584
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:03,000
What do you think it does?

585
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:07,000
Because I agree with you 100 percent, but is it a bit of a quick fix with the one-year

586
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:08,000
agreement?

587
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,000
It's a good idea, you know why?

588
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,000
Because it gives Inter a good push this year.

589
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:17,000
And if they see he's not doing what they want him to do again, let's say instead of scoring

590
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:23,000
30, he's scoring 12, 15, which won't be bad, but it won't be like, oh, Lukaku was scoring

591
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,000
every game.

592
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:29,000
So then they can, with the money they have sold from him, buy a replacement.

593
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:33,000
So this is like a kind of a safety card, I feel like.

594
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,000
It's bringing back somebody who...

595
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:39,000
The question is, do they have the funds to purchase him if he does do it?

596
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:41,000
I don't think they do.

597
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,000
They do if they sell screen yarn.

598
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:47,000
Bro, the guy dibbled in the Premier League market.

599
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,000
He's never going back to Italy the same.

600
00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,000
They pay less, man, significantly less.

601
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:55,000
50 million, 50 million, 40 million, what do you think?

602
00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,000
Let's say 40 million.

603
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,000
For Lukaku.

604
00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,000
More?

605
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:00,000
No way more.

606
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,000
He's a bit older now.

607
00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:04,000
Chelsea will not accept less than 60, for sure.

608
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,000
They will not accept less than 60.

609
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:13,000
Unless it's some sort of thing where Chelsea would rather have him not on their books,

610
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,000
then, you know, and they don't really care about them.

611
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,000
Incredible money.

612
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:21,000
At least Chelsea are not paying any... the good thing about this deal,

613
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:26,000
the only good thing about this deal about Chelsea for Chelsea was getting rid of him

614
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:34,000
and not having to pay his wages because originally the loan deal was going to have Chelsea pay part of his wages.

615
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:39,000
And that would have been terrible because even paying part of it would have been like having a full pay.

616
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:40,000
Exactly.

617
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:47,000
But he was, to be honest, when he came, he didn't look bad at all at Chelsea.

618
00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:48,000
He was very good.

619
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:52,000
He scored on his debut with like it was a sixth or seventh touch in the game.

620
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:56,000
And when he came in, he started off brilliantly and he was winning us games.

621
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:58,000
And we were playing the team literally around him.

622
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:02,000
We didn't change formation, but we changed our style to suit him.

623
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:09,000
Then he does this godforsaken interview in November with Sky thinking, I don't know what on earth he was thinking.

624
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:12,000
And decided it's not fine.

625
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:18,000
The first part of the interview was fine because he just said he didn't say bye to Inter, which to a Chelsea fan doesn't matter.

626
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,000
Like fine, you didn't say bye to them.

627
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,000
You want to speak to them now, fine, go ahead.

628
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:28,000
But then the interviewer asked him if he misses Inter and he says, yes, every day.

629
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:30,000
I can't wait to go back.

630
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,000
And he said, what did you miss most about Inter?

631
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,000
He mentions he says everything about the club.

632
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,000
And then he said, I also miss playing with Lautaro.

633
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:41,000
And the interviewer says, OK, so why don't you ask Chelsea to buy Lautaro?

634
00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,000
And he says, no, no, Lautaro should stay.

635
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:44,000
I'll be there soon.

636
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,000
Like, come on.

637
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:50,000
He just made he became one of the most expensive players in the Prem.

638
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,000
I've not the I can't remember.

639
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:55,000
I don't think he's no I think Grealish was more expensive.

640
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,000
But he was one of the most expensive players in the Premier League.

641
00:31:57,000 --> 00:32:01,000
He moved back to what he always said was his home.

642
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,000
Yeah, exactly.

643
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,000
And then he then he does that interview.

644
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:11,000
And then to make it worse, he gets injured.

645
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,000
I think he got injured before that.

646
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:14,000
He was injured before that.

647
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,000
He got better.

648
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:20,000
He wasn't playing because we were playing better without him.

649
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:24,000
Then he makes that interview because he's not playing.

650
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:28,000
We were playing, but we're not going to fix something that's broken.

651
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,000
That is the downside to Lukaku.

652
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,000
And then you get a class player on the pitch.

653
00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,000
But then you do get that side to him.

654
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,000
But I don't think he'll do that to Intai.

655
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,000
I think he loves him too much.

656
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:39,000
I don't think he'll do it to him.

657
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:40,000
OK, fair enough.

658
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,000
He loves the way the people make him feel, I think.

659
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,000
Quick question about Lukaku, because this is all that really matters.

660
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,000
How many goals and how the winter progress with Lukaku and the team?

661
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:50,000
20 goals.

662
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,000
How many sounds for you?

663
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:53,000
I think you can hit 20.

664
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:54,000
Unfortunately.

665
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,000
18.

666
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,000
Not too less.

667
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:00,000
I think 20 is minimum.

668
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:02,000
I think he'll bag.

669
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,000
19 to 23 goals.

670
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,000
Somewhere in that region.

671
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:10,000
You like doing those age group for the winter?

672
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,000
0 to 16?

673
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,000
No, because I'm 25 now, so I'm with the older ones.

674
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:15,000
25 class now.

675
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,000
Exactly.

676
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:17,000
How do you feel being 25?

677
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:18,000
Good, man.

678
00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:19,000
I feel good.

679
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:20,000
I feel like I'm in the prime of my life.

680
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:21,000
You do?

681
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:22,000
Yes.

682
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,000
You have your ambitions for the future?

683
00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:27,000
I saw him on the Duve last time and it's 40 degrees.

684
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,000
You've changed, man.

685
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,000
I heal at times.

686
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:35,000
Another couple of players they decided to randomly get.

687
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,000
One of them was Aslani.

688
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,000
Fabulous.

689
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:39,000
20 years old.

690
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,000
Full agreement.

691
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:46,000
So they first approached him and they got personal terms with him.

692
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:50,000
And then they approached the club after and they managed to get him.

693
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:54,000
And I have no information here, but he gets 1.2 million a season.

694
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:58,000
It's along with an obligation if certain conditions are met by the player.

695
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:00,000
And it would be 1.2 million per season.

696
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:01,000
That's just a wise view.

697
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:02,000
Aslani, that's a good deal.

698
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,000
And he's going to be learning from Brozovic.

699
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:08,000
I think the only thing is it's weird that it's a loan first.

700
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:13,000
Because I thought, originally when I saw the deal, I thought they would sign him and then loan him out.

701
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:18,000
Because he's 20 and he's not going to displace Brozovic at the moment.

702
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:23,000
But five sub rule and the fact that it's a long season.

703
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:29,000
And this year there's a massive interruption with the World Cup which could affect the physique of players as well.

704
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,000
Which we can't forget.

705
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:34,000
It's important to have a lot of players in the team.

706
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,000
So I think Aslani could be a good option.

707
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,000
Definitely.

708
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,000
He honestly, they're going to need the debt.

709
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,000
And they're going to need to rest Brozovic at times.

710
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,000
And I think he's the perfect kind of player to do so.

711
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:47,000
He has a fucking high ceiling.

712
00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,000
He has top talent, like exciting.

713
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,000
I could see him at Inter to be fair.

714
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,000
I could see him doing a shift when he comes on.

715
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,000
There's no reason why he wouldn't.

716
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:57,000
Another one is Bellanova.

717
00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:02,000
He's going to earn 1.5 million a year on a four year deal with the option to extend for a fifth year.

718
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,000
Bellanova, I rate Bellanova.

719
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,000
I just don't know how high his ceiling is.

720
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:09,000
Because I think I just like his physical attributes.

721
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:12,000
There's nothing about the way he plays that attracts me.

722
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,000
He's a quick guy.

723
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,000
Can get back quick and go forward quick.

724
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,000
I like him.

725
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,000
He's not going to be in the starting lineup in the immediate term for sure.

726
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:23,000
He reminds me of Hans Hatterberg.

727
00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:26,000
The way he plays is all in the sooner.

728
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,000
There's Fenzel.

729
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,000
They have Dumfries, obviously.

730
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,000
And they still have Darmian now.

731
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:36,000
And even if they were stuck and he needs to play on the left,

732
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,000
are you going to manage to display someone like Goassens?

733
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:40,000
I think it's impossible.

734
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:41,000
It's tough.

735
00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:44,000
Obviously, you just brought him up right now.

736
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,000
Inter lost Perisic.

737
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,000
And he's being replaced by Goassens in the team.

738
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:50,000
Will Inter be better?

739
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:51,000
Will they be worse?

740
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,000
I think they'll stay the same.

741
00:35:53,000 --> 00:35:55,000
I think not much will change.

742
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:59,000
And I think now Goassens has had six months to recover from his ACL.

743
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,000
Because of course, once you get back, you're not the same.

744
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,000
I can speak personally.

745
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,000
I still feel a bit creepy.

746
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:07,000
No, it's true, man.

747
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,000
And I probably haven't taken my recovery,

748
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:16,000
even five percent of series, this Perisic down as Goassens injury.

749
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:19,000
So probably now he should be what we're used to seeing from him.

750
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:24,000
If not now, by October, I think we'll be seeing Goassens at his best again.

751
00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:25,000
To be fair, on your point.

752
00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,000
And I think that's a good player.

753
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:30,000
A player who could score a lot of goals at Atalanta.

754
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,000
Now imagine Inter, dude.

755
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:37,000
Yeah. On your point, I think that when it comes to Goassens,

756
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:42,000
Inter played the long game with him and they played the game they should have exactly.

757
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:48,000
So they had Perisic and they would introduce, they would start introducing Goassens slowly, slowly.

758
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:51,000
They came out in the 85th and they came out in the 65th.

759
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:54,000
And Goassens is getting some playing time, getting a couple of assists.

760
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:57,000
Now he's going to have a full preseason as a fit player.

761
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,000
And then he's going to be in the starting eleven.

762
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,000
And I think that's where we'll see him really excel.

763
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:04,000
And I don't think they'll miss Perisic too much at that point.

764
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:08,000
But Jake said something just before we started recording.

765
00:37:08,000 --> 00:37:09,000
And I think it's very true.

766
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:15,000
Goassens has been super consistent and he's been, if not the best left wing back second,

767
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:20,000
you could argue third, but I wouldn't say he was always third best wing back in the league.

768
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:27,000
But Perisic last year, that season that he had last year was probably better than any of Goassens.

769
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:31,000
I don't know the number, so maybe I'm speaking out of my ass cheeks.

770
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:41,000
But I think his best, I think Perisic last year, even if it's not just number wise,

771
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,000
maybe we can pull them up as well so we can compare actually.

772
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:49,000
But I think even what he gave that team, he was brilliant last year.

773
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,000
And he has an attractive play style there, so it's a bit magical.

774
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:55,000
And I've never seen someone so two footed as well.

775
00:37:55,000 --> 00:38:02,000
Obviously they say he's left footed, but his right foot is just as deadly and he can weapon cross unbelievably.

776
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:07,000
And he's super versatile, even though he was 34, I think, something like that.

777
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:10,000
I think 33 if I'm not mistaken.

778
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,000
Yeah, 33. There you go.

779
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:20,000
He's 33 and he was one of the best in the league last season.

780
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:24,000
And I think, you know, I wanted a match else as well.

781
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:25,000
He's amazing.

782
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,000
He had eight goals and seven assists last season.

783
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,000
OK, granted, Goassens' best was 11 goals and assists.

784
00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:32,000
Well, OK, so there we go.

785
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,000
I'm stalking out of my ass.

786
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,000
There's no reason to be.

787
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:43,000
But to be fair, I think, and like I was saying, though, Goassens gave Atalanta a real lot.

788
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:46,000
But I think what Perisic gave Inter for the last two years was incredible.

789
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:51,000
And I think maybe, maybe I'm more impressed just because Perisic was much older.

790
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:52,000
Maybe that's why I'm more impressed.

791
00:38:52,000 --> 00:38:54,000
I think you're sleeping every time Goassens.

792
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,000
Perisic has had an 11-9 season, I think.

793
00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,000
There you go. That's better than Goassens.

794
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:01,000
OK, thank God. Thank God.

795
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:03,000
Woo!

796
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:06,000
I think you're sleeping on Goassens' stuff.

797
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:08,000
No, Goassens is a top player. I know he's really good, bro.

798
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:14,000
But this transfer is, I think, I think, personally, it's probably better than the one of Lukaku.

799
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,000
Of Goassens?

800
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,000
Yes, man. He was a man.

801
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:18,000
It was incredible.

802
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,000
People are forgetting what he was doing with Atalanta.

803
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,000
Oh, you're right. You're right.

804
00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,000
Numbers-wise, though, I don't think so.

805
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:25,000
Yeah.

806
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,000
Because it was once a start to become a last-time.

807
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,000
Is it a freak season, though? Is it a freak season for Perisic?

808
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,000
It was the prime, the last hurrah.

809
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,000
Do you think that would have maintained for next season? I think long-term, they're better off.

810
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,000
But Goassens can do better, I think, to be honest.

811
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:37,000
I think.

812
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:38,000
If he recovers well, man.

813
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:41,000
If Perisic doesn't slow down next season, it's the one after.

814
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:45,000
Let's go back to another confirmed transfer.

815
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:48,000
So, Mkhitaryan with Inter.

816
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:56,000
I think, for me, this signing is being slept on and it's phenomenal for both Mkhitaryan and for Inter.

817
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:59,000
I think they're going to do some serious work together, man, these two.

818
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:02,000
He could be very good. He could be very good.

819
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,000
He'll be rotated and he'll be good.

820
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:10,000
I was thinking that probably he would be at the beginning of the season.

821
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:11,000
He's bought or loaned?

822
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,000
He's bought.

823
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,000
He was free.

824
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,000
He's won a free four million a season.

825
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:23,000
This is a guy in 2020-21. He got 13 goals in 10 assists.

826
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:24,000
That's not bad at all.

827
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:26,000
He's serious. He's serious, man. Mkhitaryan.

828
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,000
If you play him in bursts, he can do really well.

829
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:33,000
I think the point I was trying to make before we started recording is

830
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:39,000
Shala Noglu has too many attributes to his name, which include obviously what he does on the pitch for Inter

831
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:43,000
and how he links up with his teammates, which is already good. Very good.

832
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:47,000
And then he's obviously a dead ball specialist. He's shown it from the spot this season.

833
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:53,000
He's shown it maybe not directly from free kicks, but slightly wider out, maybe at an angle from his corners as well.

834
00:40:53,000 --> 00:41:00,000
So, so much to his arsenal that maybe not irreplaceable, but it certainly gives him an edge over any competitor.

835
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:04,000
Then again, he does tend to shift off a little bit throughout the game.

836
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:07,000
So he is substituted in the 65th when he's having an off one.

837
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:13,000
And Mkhitaryan coming on instead of like Sensi or something like that is incredible for Inter, man.

838
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:18,000
Yeah, yeah. It's a really good signing. It's a really good signing.

839
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,000
Yeah. Smart move. Korea is leaving. I don't know.

840
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:29,000
Korea actually, according to the sheet that I found today whilst I was at work,

841
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:34,000
Korea apparently was confirmed on 1st July to stay.

842
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:42,000
So I think they're going to keep him. However, I think Lukaku coming in,

843
00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:51,000
if I was Korea, I'd be a bit disappointed though, because it looked like Zeko was the one who was going to drop out of that front too.

844
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:57,000
And now, you know, Zeko is dropping out and so is Korea. Korea doesn't have a chance.

845
00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:02,000
And to be fair, Korea is more of a lauter or kind of than Lukaku.

846
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:09,000
Exactly. And I don't think Nzaghi will ever need to change that front to whenever he needs to.

847
00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:16,000
You know, I think it's too good. Is Zeko confirmed to Monza? No, not yet.

848
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:22,000
OK, there were some talks there. I'm not sure if I can see Zeko there.

849
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:29,000
But I think there's been a lot of talk about Skriniar as well, about his future. We're seeing PSG interested.

850
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:35,000
Inter are using Penamonti as a cash grab and probably Skriniar by the looks of it.

851
00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:38,000
It was between Skriniar and Laotauro. How much are they going to get?

852
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:43,000
65, I think, for Skriniar. And Penamonti? Penamonti, 20 probably.

853
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:49,000
It's not bad. Bayern are on the lookout for a center back, man. They're looking at the Ligt, they're looking at Skriniar.

854
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:53,000
I could see Skriniar at Bayern very well. I could see that.

855
00:42:53,000 --> 00:43:01,000
I see him at PSG for the sole reason that PSG love a name. It doesn't really matter if it's their system.

856
00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:07,000
They read an article and they're in. Money makes you stupid.

857
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:10,000
The prince in his office.

858
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:14,000
I see him there. Obviously, it makes sense for them because if they need money,

859
00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:19,000
it makes more sense to sell the older player who's established that people are going to like

860
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:24,000
than selling, for example, like a Bastoni who many clubs ran for him this year.

861
00:43:24,000 --> 00:43:28,000
And then they were all, Inter said no to everyone.

862
00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:33,000
It makes more sense because Bastoni is someone you can build around and he's for the future.

863
00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:39,000
Skriniar is still younger. Is that old? Is he 20? No, he's 25.

864
00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:42,000
No, Skriniar. That makes a difference.

865
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:48,000
Skriniar is actually 25. He looks 47. No, he doesn't. He looks like he's 30.

866
00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:52,000
He's 27. He's 27. OK, OK, OK.

867
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:58,000
He's 95. He's a 95 boy. I saw number 37. I was like, what?

868
00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:04,000
I was thinking that with Leclerc recently. I saw that man Leclerc at the same age.

869
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:07,000
Though we're not like.

870
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:13,000
I'm a bit older by a month. It's fucked up, man.

871
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:19,000
But so aside from Perisic and then there was Ranocchia that was confirmed on a 3-2 Monza.

872
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:23,000
There was Satariano. Not a bad player, but a pretty good player.

873
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:29,000
There's Satariano as a loan to Empoli. Vidal is off to Flamengo and Sensi is off to Monza.

874
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:32,000
So Inter lost those very like fringe players, I would say.

875
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:35,000
And they lost your best player last year.

876
00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:38,000
Raudu, of course.

877
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:44,000
Raudu of two, Matap.

878
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,000
Cremona is.

879
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:51,000
So he's staying in the league. I really hope he bounces back, Mesquite.

880
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:56,000
That must be a tough one to take. It was heartbreaking for him, I think.

881
00:44:56,000 --> 00:45:01,000
In hindsight, when he lost them the league, like it's fucked.

882
00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:07,000
He's young, no? He's very young. Yeah, he's not. He's not too young, is he?

883
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:10,000
For a goalkeeper, he's young.

884
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:13,000
Raudu's young, no? Like 26, is he? 27?

885
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:16,000
25. He's young, he's young.

886
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,000
Ah, Benofec mint.

887
00:45:18,000 --> 00:45:19,000
I was in the fist bump.

888
00:45:19,000 --> 00:45:24,000
And then there are a couple of rumours and then about Inter, but Tobias has been speaking about Inter for a while.

889
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:27,000
But there's Bremer that's been linked.

890
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,000
There's been Milenkovic of Fiorentina.

891
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:34,000
There's been Skamaka, but that's kind of drifted off, not especially with the signing of Lukaku.

892
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:40,000
I don't really see that happening. And then there's Debala, which I don't really see happening again, unless he takes the attacking with Vildrola.

893
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:43,000
They just got Mkhitaryan. Exactly.

894
00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,000
I don't think anything.

895
00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:51,000
So, any one of those that stick out for you guys, we're happy to move on to Naples.

896
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:55,000
Let's talk about Naples. What a disgrace, man.

897
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:59,000
He said disgrace. Fuck him, man.

898
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:03,000
He's given them some good time, so not fuck him, but fuck you.

899
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:08,000
He just refuses to take them over the line. He keeps them just below the line.

900
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:12,000
And Saturday's Naples, they've been so good, they just refuse to invest.

901
00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:15,000
He cuts the fucking cost.

902
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:26,000
They've lost this year. Insinia, Koulibaly, although I think as of right now, this moment it's not been confirmed.

903
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:29,000
But I actually know it has been because he said he gave his goodbyes.

904
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:33,000
No, it's official. You guys, man, lucky.

905
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:36,000
What a signing. I'm very happy with that.

906
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:40,000
Koulibaly, Senegalese, Afghan champion. Fucking animal.

907
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,000
Very intelligent.

908
00:46:43,000 --> 00:46:47,000
And he's actually pretty decent with his feet. People think he's big.

909
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:50,000
And he scores the odd goal, too.

910
00:46:50,000 --> 00:46:56,000
And they lost Insinia as well. They lost two massive players.

911
00:46:56,000 --> 00:47:03,000
And the replacement is that they've mentioned maybe this Georgian guy, who I will not even attempt to pronounce his name.

912
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,000
It might be decent.

913
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,000
Oh, do you mean Kvara Kshelyan?

914
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:12,000
It's fine. We can actually call him Kvara.

915
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,000
Kvara, yes.

916
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,000
If you follow us on TikTok, you'd know that.

917
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:21,000
He looks OK, but can he replicate what Insinia did?

918
00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,000
We'll need to see.

919
00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:27,000
It's so random, like out of nowhere. It has to be an opportunity to come up with one like that.

920
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:33,000
And the team he's from, I'm reading it off your laptop, Jake. Dynamo Batumi.

921
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:36,000
It looks like it's been invented.

922
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,000
So I don't know.

923
00:47:38,000 --> 00:47:42,000
But he looks pretty good. There was a friendly game and he scored like...

924
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:45,000
He scored two and assisted one. I saw it today on Instagram.

925
00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:49,000
OK, I didn't know that. That's fucked up. That's really good.

926
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:50,000
He signed.

927
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,000
He signed, he's confirmed.

928
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:54,000
He's 21 years old.

929
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:59,000
So they lose Koulibaly, they lose Insinia, they get Kvara.

930
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:07,000
And there are a lot of, I don't think, players like Ozymen aren't 100% committing to Napoli.

931
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:11,000
Fabian Ruiz has been flirting with a move to Spain for ages.

932
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:16,000
Mario Rui never knows if he's going to see the light of day the next day with Napoli.

933
00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:21,000
Mario Rui, every day he's more and more merging into Mario from Mario Kart.

934
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:25,000
He looks so much like him now. I swear.

935
00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:27,000
The moustache is going now.

936
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:31,000
I think moustaches are really cool.

937
00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,000
That's because you have a moustache, man.

938
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,000
No.

939
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:43,000
So what I would say about Napoli to just sum it up is shambolic business, man.

940
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:46,000
Well, they're making an ambitious...

941
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:49,000
An ambitious, not shambolic, an ambitious.

942
00:48:49,000 --> 00:48:50,000
Exactly.

943
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:55,000
Now we need to see what they do, who they get as the actual replacement,

944
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:58,000
especially the replacement for Koulibaly because...

945
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:00,000
I'm sure they're saying as well.

946
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:06,000
Interesting. But I think they should go for Milenkovic, for example, someone like Ofiore.

947
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:11,000
You know who Napoli are interested in? Bernardeschi.

948
00:49:11,000 --> 00:49:12,000
Oh, good.

949
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:15,000
That's how ambitious they are.

950
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:16,000
And Di Valla.

951
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,000
Bernardeschi, wasn't he?

952
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:21,000
Di Valla, they offered him six million a season, official, like take it or leave it.

953
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:24,000
He asked for eight, apparently.

954
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:28,000
I saw Bernardeschi was offered a move to Toronto.

955
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:32,000
Speaking of that, by the way, because I have to mention it,

956
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:35,000
the photo of Adam Sandler with Insinia is brilliant.

957
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:36,000
Have you seen it?

958
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,000
Oh my God.

959
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:42,000
Adam Sandler has no idea who this guy, this midget is.

960
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:46,000
He must think he's from the Make-A-Wish Foundation or something.

961
00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:48,000
Look at the photo.

962
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,000
Oh my God.

963
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:53,000
That's an amazing picture.

964
00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:55,000
Two worlds colliding.

965
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:57,000
It's true, man. It's insane.

966
00:49:57,000 --> 00:49:59,000
I respect Adam Sandler.

967
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:02,000
Some people hate Adam Sandler. I like Adam Sandler.

968
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:04,000
I respect the guy who's always in Boston Bush.

969
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:08,000
I watched all of his rom-coms, 51st dates, bro.

970
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:11,000
He's so rich he doesn't need to dress up.

971
00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,000
Zero effort.

972
00:50:13,000 --> 00:50:15,000
I mean, are we done with Napoli?

973
00:50:15,000 --> 00:50:18,000
We are. There's not much going on for that.

974
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:20,000
Yeah, Guevara is the only interesting...

975
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,000
Olivera from...

976
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:24,000
Oh, yes, him.

977
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:26,000
Now, him, I've actually seen a bit of him

978
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:29,000
because I was watching a bit of Seria this year to kind of...

979
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:30,000
He's signed?

980
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,000
Yes, yes, he's signed.

981
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,000
Who's this unit of mass destruction?

982
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:37,000
Is he the one that was at Rome? Oh, wait.

983
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:39,000
No, not... Wait.

984
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:41,000
No, no, it's not the same. Olivera.

985
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:42,000
What's his name?

986
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:43,000
No, it's not Olivera.

987
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:46,000
Oh, my God. Is he a defender? Is he a defender?

988
00:50:46,000 --> 00:50:47,000
Can you check?

989
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,000
He's a left back, yes. Exactly.

990
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:55,000
He is one of these left backs who doesn't defend at all,

991
00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:56,000
but he always gets forward.

992
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:58,000
So he could be interesting.

993
00:50:58,000 --> 00:51:02,000
And thank God because it's a massive upgrade on Mario Rui.

994
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:03,000
So that's good.

995
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,000
Don't give too much disrespect to Rui.

996
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,000
He was good last season.

997
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,000
Yes, but I think this is an upgrade.

998
00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:11,000
This is an upgrade.

999
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:15,000
I like this guy. He's maybe someone to keep in mind for Fanta.

1000
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:18,000
Maybe I'm giving away for my own fans.

1001
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:23,000
So, boys, I think the next one could take up the entire podcast.

1002
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:24,000
Because it's Juve.

1003
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:28,000
Juve have been serious. They're not fucking around.

1004
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:30,000
They won the league next year. They won the league.

1005
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:31,000
They have to.

1006
00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:34,000
And Champions League, I'll tell you, they'll probably be quite ambitious as well.

1007
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:39,000
Juve have me making montage videos on TikTok of their team.

1008
00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,000
Literally, man. Literally.

1009
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:47,000
So the first one confirmed Paul Pogba, 29 on a free transfer of the

1010
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:49,000
result of the United States for a hundred dollars.

1011
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:50,000
Fuck him.

1012
00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:51,000
Fuck him.

1013
00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:52,000
Fuck him.

1014
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,000
Stay there, you salty little cunt.

1015
00:51:55,000 --> 00:51:56,000
No, man.

1016
00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:58,000
Fuck him, dude.

1017
00:51:58,000 --> 00:51:59,000
I hate players like that.

1018
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:00,000
I hate them.

1019
00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:01,000
He has a terrible attitude.

1020
00:52:01,000 --> 00:52:02,000
Because they're such shit guys.

1021
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:03,000
What do you know about the market, man?

1022
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:05,000
I don't give a fuck what market you're on, dude.

1023
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:07,000
He has such a shit attitude, dude.

1024
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:10,000
He comes, he plays five games, he scores a couple of goals.

1025
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:11,000
He's great.

1026
00:52:11,000 --> 00:52:13,000
No doubting his abilities.

1027
00:52:13,000 --> 00:52:15,000
He stops playing.

1028
00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:16,000
He stops playing the next game.

1029
00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:17,000
You're right.

1030
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:18,000
He chills, he parties.

1031
00:52:18,000 --> 00:52:20,000
We never saw that with him at Juve, though.

1032
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:21,000
Never.

1033
00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:22,000
Okay.

1034
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:23,000
I hope he comes back an excellent.

1035
00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:25,000
So that's the question I was going to bring up.

1036
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,000
Is he going to be more of the United Pogba?

1037
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:30,000
Is he going to be more of what we saw in that season, bro?

1038
00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:32,000
He was going with his outstep from outside the box.

1039
00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:35,000
Fucking had cheetahs tattooed on his hair.

1040
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:37,000
Like a tattooed cut.

1041
00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:38,000
I don't know what to expect.

1042
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:41,000
I can't help but feel like he'll do well.

1043
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:44,000
I think he'll do better than United for sure.

1044
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:47,000
Now how good that is, we'll see.

1045
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:48,000
If it's a no, man.

1046
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,000
I think, exactly.

1047
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:54,000
I think he does suit the Italian football.

1048
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:59,000
And also he suits what Juve are going to look like next year.

1049
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:03,000
Because Pogba looks very good in two things.

1050
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:06,000
One, if he has a very good holding next to him.

1051
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:11,000
And I think if Locatelli has a good season, he could be that guy.

1052
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:15,000
Now he's not incredible, I have to say.

1053
00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:17,000
But I think he's decent.

1054
00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:21,000
And Pogba also looks good when he's playing with very good players.

1055
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:27,000
And having in front of you a front three of Vlachovic, Keza, Di Maria.

1056
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:30,000
I think you can't not enjoy that.

1057
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:32,000
I think that's ridiculous.

1058
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:35,000
And the business side of it as well is just unbelievable.

1059
00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:38,000
They sold him for a hundred million and they got him back on the free.

1060
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:40,000
So we got him for free in the first place.

1061
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:42,000
Exactly, in the second place.

1062
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:44,000
Eat my ass.

1063
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:46,000
Fuck these people, man.

1064
00:53:46,000 --> 00:53:48,000
They're scum.

1065
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:49,000
They're actual scum.

1066
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:51,000
I don't think so, man.

1067
00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:55,000
Dude, if he acted like that with Milan, he'd say the same thing hands down.

1068
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:56,000
We're hurt, stop it.

1069
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:58,000
No, man, Chalunoglu acted worse.

1070
00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,000
As if.

1071
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:02,000
No way you're going to compare it.

1072
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:04,000
Of course you are, man.

1073
00:54:04,000 --> 00:54:05,000
You cannot compare.

1074
00:54:05,000 --> 00:54:09,000
A guy, he comes to play football, does five games great,

1075
00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:12,000
then this takes it easy for two months, not giving a fuck,

1076
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:15,000
complains about ambition, doesn't fucking take it seriously.

1077
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:18,000
You guys have been a shithouse though, so just Pogba.

1078
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,000
Pogba was fed up by United.

1079
00:54:20,000 --> 00:54:22,000
I'm not just saying it's his fault.

1080
00:54:22,000 --> 00:54:25,000
The player disappointed the club, but the club disappointed the player.

1081
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:26,000
There you go.

1082
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:27,000
It's a sad story.

1083
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:28,000
We played him, man.

1084
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:29,000
We played him and we liked him.

1085
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:32,000
Sure, but what was around him wasn't the standard.

1086
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:34,000
But that's the point, man, to rebuild stuff.

1087
00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,000
That's why they buy someone like you.

1088
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:39,000
But no one else is stepping it up and you don't want stepping it up.

1089
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:41,000
He wasn't the only one stepping it up, dude.

1090
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:44,000
In that season there was Rushford doing insane stuff.

1091
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,000
Where did that get United?

1092
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:47,000
He wants to be up there, man.

1093
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:49,000
He wants to be winning at least domestically.

1094
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:50,000
Okay, man, but let's leave.

1095
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:52,000
Don't say flirting with it every fucking six months.

1096
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:54,000
But he was always on the game.

1097
00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:56,000
He's a Raiola client.

1098
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:59,000
He was always willing to listen.

1099
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,000
Maybe football would be better, no?

1100
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:04,000
Rest in peace, Raiola.

1101
00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:06,000
I think we should move on to Di Maria.

1102
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:10,000
Another insane free signing by Juve.

1103
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:12,000
What a wingback, I'm joking.

1104
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:14,000
More of an RM.

1105
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:20,000
One year, six million for a 34-year-old.

1106
00:55:20,000 --> 00:55:22,000
Replacement for Di Bala, I suppose, in some ways.

1107
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:25,000
Of course, not directly, but in some ways, yes.

1108
00:55:25,000 --> 00:55:27,000
An upgrade, that's for sure.

1109
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:31,000
The thing is, he was at PSG last year.

1110
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:33,000
At PSG last year, he was still brilliant.

1111
00:55:33,000 --> 00:55:35,000
He was, even at the finals.

1112
00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:37,000
Exactly.

1113
00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:41,000
He's probably one of the most, which is quite rare.

1114
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:44,000
You don't find many wing guys, out and out wing guys,

1115
00:55:44,000 --> 00:55:47,000
who are super industrious on the defensive side as well.

1116
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:50,000
But he honestly does so much dirty work.

1117
00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:56,000
I think having him in your team, you feel you're happy with him

1118
00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:59,000
because he does a lot of work, except when I was at United.

1119
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:04,000
But he's just walking back like a punt, man.

1120
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:06,000
Fuck you, Osteen.

1121
00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:09,000
He says something about the club, this keeps happening.

1122
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:11,000
It just keeps happening.

1123
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,000
You seem to hit everyone, Rashford.

1124
00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:15,000
Even Rashford's doing that now.

1125
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,000
Now the team's fucked.

1126
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:19,000
We can't say anything bad about Rashford, obviously.

1127
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:21,000
Thank you, Rashford, for all the charity.

1128
00:56:21,000 --> 00:56:23,000
Yeah, thank you.

1129
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:25,000
He's a great guy.

1130
00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:29,000
Team Maria, bro, is so good at going direct and at cutting in, man.

1131
00:56:29,000 --> 00:56:31,000
He's like the perfect hybrid.

1132
00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:33,000
No, he's brilliant.

1133
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:35,000
And as long as Allegri doesn't play him left-back,

1134
00:56:35,000 --> 00:56:39,000
I think they're in for business.

1135
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:41,000
I think so.

1136
00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:44,000
I think if you take Messi out of the equation for Argentina,

1137
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:48,000
out of modern stars, don't even start to compare him with Maradona.

1138
00:56:48,000 --> 00:56:50,000
A lot of recent stars of Messi was out of the equation.

1139
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,000
Team Maria would be that guy.

1140
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,000
The guy has the most assists for PSG in PSG history

1141
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:57,000
over the course of what, four years?

1142
00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:59,000
He won La Decima at Real,

1143
00:56:59,000 --> 00:57:02,000
and he was quality when it came to doing that as well.

1144
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:04,000
He played an integral part.

1145
00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:07,000
United didn't really work out, but straight to PSG.

1146
00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,000
He's off it again, just makes history.

1147
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:12,000
And he's 34 now.

1148
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:14,000
He's 34.

1149
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:17,000
I think it's still a great move.

1150
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:18,000
I think so.

1151
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,000
One year contract on the free, you give him six million.

1152
00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,000
And then obviously if it really backfires,

1153
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,000
you're going to be a bit upset,

1154
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,000
because it's six million, but I think he'll be fine.

1155
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:29,000
I don't think there's much space for it to backfire.

1156
00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:32,000
The only concerning thing I would say is I don't really see

1157
00:57:32,000 --> 00:57:35,000
a future with Di Maria, because he's 34,

1158
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:38,000
and obviously next year in the 2022-2023 season,

1159
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:40,000
he's only going to be 35.

1160
00:57:40,000 --> 00:57:42,000
After that, it's 36.

1161
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:44,000
Time to start considering it.

1162
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:47,000
But I think he's going to really help that front three

1163
00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:50,000
with Kierza and Vlachovic.

1164
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:52,000
I think that's going to look really delicious.

1165
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:55,000
He's going to give some sexy balls.

1166
00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:58,000
I mean, you guys are really complementing Juve, dude,

1167
00:57:58,000 --> 00:58:00,000
but their defence is in a disastrous state.

1168
00:58:00,000 --> 00:58:02,000
We should speak about those.

1169
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:04,000
And there's only half a transfer season to go,

1170
00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:06,000
and some good defenders are already taken.

1171
00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:10,000
Yeah, so when it comes to defenders, obviously,

1172
00:58:10,000 --> 00:58:14,000
to add to what Mintov just said,

1173
00:58:14,000 --> 00:58:17,000
they licked his rumour to be out.

1174
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:20,000
And it's looking quite close now at this point.

1175
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:23,000
I think he's as good as gone.

1176
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,000
They have to sell him.

1177
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:27,000
Need money.

1178
00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:32,000
And he's going to go for near 100m, so it's good.

1179
00:58:32,000 --> 00:58:35,000
And they lost Kelini, so they've lost two centre,

1180
00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:37,000
meaning they're going to lose two centre.

1181
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:43,000
And they were really trying for Koulibaly.

1182
00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:45,000
In fact, I think that's a big loss for them,

1183
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:47,000
the fact that they're not going to get him,

1184
00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:50,000
because I think they were kind of resting on that

1185
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:52,000
and hoping that would go through.

1186
00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:54,000
Resting on their laurels.

1187
00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:56,000
Thank you very much.

1188
00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:58,000
You're educated after all.

1189
00:58:58,000 --> 00:59:00,000
I'm trying to become middle class.

1190
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:02,000
Fantastic attempt.

1191
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:06,000
Aside from that, Morata is confirmed to be heading back to Atletico.

1192
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:09,000
Another money laundering project.

1193
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:12,000
All these Spanish clubs, man.

1194
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:17,000
Honestly, they're being run for sure by Walter White and Saul Goodman.

1195
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:20,000
For sure, for sure.

1196
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:23,000
I don't know where they're getting this money from, but anyways.

1197
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:26,000
Barcelona are on a whole new level.

1198
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:29,000
That's for the La Liga spotlight.

1199
00:59:29,000 --> 00:59:33,000
How much did Chelsea originally buy Morata for, man?

1200
00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:35,000
It was like 80 million.

1201
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:37,000
Can you check?

1202
00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:43,000
I think it was our record signing for sure at the time.

1203
00:59:43,000 --> 00:59:47,000
And then he was beaten by Kebhar Rizabalaga, which is crazy.

1204
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:50,000
60 million pounds, though.

1205
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:52,000
So like 71.

1206
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:54,000
Yeah, something like that.

1207
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:57,000
I'll take your word for it, because you sound smart.

1208
00:59:57,000 --> 01:00:00,000
Other players.

1209
01:00:00,000 --> 01:00:02,000
He's not smart, so.

1210
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:07,000
Real Madrid, Juventus, Chelsea, Atletico Madrid on your CV.

1211
01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:08,000
Only those.

1212
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:11,000
And Spain nationally.

1213
01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:13,000
Youth career get-off.

1214
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:15,000
Between Real Madrid and Atletico.

1215
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:18,000
But I don't know why Atletico wants him, genuinely.

1216
01:00:18,000 --> 01:00:20,000
I don't.

1217
01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:22,000
Now I'm biased because he was...

1218
01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:24,000
Play him out wide and okay.

1219
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:27,000
Wide, though, I can win Gary.

1220
01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:29,000
Do not play him in front of goal for me.

1221
01:00:29,000 --> 01:00:32,000
He has one thing, that it's pace, it's quick turn of pace, man.

1222
01:00:32,000 --> 01:00:34,000
Quick turn of pace is good on doing.

1223
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:38,000
We saw when Vlavic came in and they kind of moved to this 4-3-3 more than anything.

1224
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:40,000
We saw him doing just that.

1225
01:00:40,000 --> 01:00:42,000
I have to mention this, though.

1226
01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:46,000
So Chelsea signed Morata the same season, United signed Lukaku.

1227
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:48,000
And they both did.

1228
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:52,000
I think a four-game goal is streaked.

1229
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:56,000
And then the next game was Chelsea United at home, at Sanford Bridge.

1230
01:00:56,000 --> 01:01:01,000
And I had a bet with all my friends that Morata would be the better signing in the long term.

1231
01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:05,000
Honestly, how do I work in football?

1232
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:10,000
I said that and everyone was like, no, Lukaku is obviously better.

1233
01:01:10,000 --> 01:01:12,000
That game, Morata scored the winner.

1234
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:14,000
And that's insane, had I.

1235
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:16,000
And I'm feeling like I'm king of the world.

1236
01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:19,000
And he scores a hatchet, I think, next game against like a Stoke City or something.

1237
01:01:19,000 --> 01:01:23,000
I'm like, honestly, somebody signed me up as a director of football or something.

1238
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:29,000
And then, genuinely, I don't think he did anything else for the rest of the year, except crying.

1239
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:31,000
He just gave you a week of bragging.

1240
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:33,000
Exactly.

1241
01:01:33,000 --> 01:01:37,000
Sohan, that's essentially, I believe, Uwe's market.

1242
01:01:37,000 --> 01:01:40,000
I know they brought Cambiaso in from Genoa.

1243
01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:41,000
They should sign him.

1244
01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:44,000
Man, we're praising them way too much, you're right.

1245
01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:45,000
And Mandjagoor out.

1246
01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:47,000
But they've been doing good business, man.

1247
01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:48,000
They have been doing good business.

1248
01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:50,000
Where do they finish next year?

1249
01:01:50,000 --> 01:01:51,000
What are we thinking?

1250
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:52,000
Second.

1251
01:01:52,000 --> 01:01:53,000
Behind Inter.

1252
01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:55,000
Wait, no, hold on.

1253
01:01:55,000 --> 01:01:56,000
No.

1254
01:01:56,000 --> 01:01:57,000
I think first, man.

1255
01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:00,000
First without knowing what defense they're going to have.

1256
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:02,000
I think they'll sort it out, bro.

1257
01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:04,000
That's... who are they going to get?

1258
01:02:04,000 --> 01:02:05,000
Let's talk.

1259
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:07,000
It's not for us to answer.

1260
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:10,000
It's not for us to realistically get.

1261
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:14,000
Someone alongside Bonacci, who pretty much knows what he's doing and can hold the line.

1262
01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,000
Who is that, man?

1263
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:17,000
I think they'll find someone.

1264
01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:18,000
Bremer.

1265
01:02:18,000 --> 01:02:19,000
Bremer.

1266
01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:21,000
If there are options in the world, they can't decide.

1267
01:02:21,000 --> 01:02:22,000
Even Milenkovic.

1268
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:24,000
Milenkovic, for the next shift as well.

1269
01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:25,000
These guys are decent.

1270
01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:27,000
Bremer or Milenkovic, to be honest.

1271
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:28,000
Yeah, 100%.

1272
01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:31,000
That's pretty much Juve for us, guys.

1273
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:36,000
There's obviously talk going on about Zaniolo.

1274
01:02:36,000 --> 01:02:39,000
Zaniolo apparently doesn't want to even train with Roma.

1275
01:02:39,000 --> 01:02:41,000
He just wants to go to Juve.

1276
01:02:41,000 --> 01:02:43,000
He's there with his bionic knees.

1277
01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:45,000
You can all pissy.

1278
01:02:45,000 --> 01:02:48,000
Kjeza moves to the left, Zaniolo on the right.

1279
01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:51,000
What the hell happened to Di Maria?

1280
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:53,000
No way.

1281
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:54,000
No, it's impossible.

1282
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:56,000
But it's a pretty official...

1283
01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:57,000
It's a bad move for Zaniolo.

1284
01:02:57,000 --> 01:02:59,000
Who's reported this?

1285
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:01,000
I think it was Di Martio.

1286
01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:02,000
No, no.

1287
01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:06,000
He's been heavily linked and the sources look credible.

1288
01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:10,000
But again, like you're saying, it depends where he's going to play.

1289
01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:13,000
Because if he's going to come and still be second fiddle to Di Maria...

1290
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:15,000
It doesn't make sense for him.

1291
01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:19,000
For him, I think it makes more sense to play in a Roma where he's going to start.

1292
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:21,000
Under Mourinho.

1293
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:22,000
Under Mourinho, exactly.

1294
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:26,000
And I know we're going to talk about Roma later, but Roma's front line still looks very good.

1295
01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:28,000
It's still exciting to play in.

1296
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:29,000
But you know what it is, man.

1297
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:32,000
If they don't come in, you can be Di Maria's understudy for a year or two.

1298
01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:35,000
And then after you're our main guy, we're investing in you.

1299
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:38,000
Plus Champions League.

1300
01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:40,000
Plus you're at a team that's no stranger to you.

1301
01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:42,000
Di Maria does get injured.

1302
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,000
He does, but he also wins titles.

1303
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:50,000
And if Keza hasn't recovered properly, that might be an avenue for him.

1304
01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:51,000
Exactly.

1305
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:56,000
Aside from that, and then there's also some talk about Arnautovic or some weird talk about Arnautovic.

1306
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:58,000
I don't even think we should address that.

1307
01:03:58,000 --> 01:03:59,000
That would be crazy.

1308
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:00,000
And very cool.

1309
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:01,000
It would be cool.

1310
01:04:01,000 --> 01:04:04,000
But let's move on to Lazio.

1311
01:04:04,000 --> 01:04:07,000
Lazio towards the end of last season.

1312
01:04:07,000 --> 01:04:09,000
Can we also say Shambolic and Disastrous is right?

1313
01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:11,000
Yes, 100%.

1314
01:04:11,000 --> 01:04:17,000
One thing I was saying towards the end of the season last year was I was surprised Lazio finished above Roma.

1315
01:04:17,000 --> 01:04:19,000
Because Roma kind of seemed to pick up.

1316
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:21,000
Lazio seemed to dip off.

1317
01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:25,000
And to be honest, seeing Lazio in fifth kind of surprises me a little to this day.

1318
01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:31,000
Because I do think that Roma were a better side than Lazio last season.

1319
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:38,000
And Sarri has clearly been given some time to improve the team now over the transfer window.

1320
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:41,000
But what's going on with Lazio?

1321
01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:42,000
Not much.

1322
01:04:42,000 --> 01:04:43,000
What's going on?

1323
01:04:43,000 --> 01:04:44,000
You guys know anything?

1324
01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:47,000
You know what I was going to say, which is like a really random move.

1325
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:49,000
They just lost Strakosha on a three.

1326
01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:52,000
And Luis Felipe on a three.

1327
01:04:52,000 --> 01:04:56,000
Luis Felipe is I think probably of the two is a bigger loss.

1328
01:04:56,000 --> 01:05:00,000
But Strakosha is a young promising goalkeeper.

1329
01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:05,000
They lost him for a three to Brentford in the Premier League, which is...

1330
01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:06,000
Rude.

1331
01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:08,000
It's really random.

1332
01:05:08,000 --> 01:05:13,000
Because at the beginning of the transfer window he was linked to the better teams.

1333
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:15,000
He was linked to top six teams in England.

1334
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,000
And then he was linked to Fulham.

1335
01:05:17,000 --> 01:05:22,000
And now he's made the move to Brentford, which is really random.

1336
01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:29,000
And I think it's strange because Strakosha was one of the players I thought that was...

1337
01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:34,000
If he stays, he would really help Lazio improve a bit.

1338
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:36,000
Because I still think he's a very good goalkeeper.

1339
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:38,000
He is. He's a good keeper. He's decent.

1340
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:41,000
However, if you look at their transfers, I have them here if you want.

1341
01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:44,000
Marcus Antonio, 7.5 million.

1342
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:45,000
Who?

1343
01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:47,000
Alessio Romagnoli for free.

1344
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:50,000
Luis Maximiano for 10.1 million.

1345
01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:52,000
Matteo Cancellari on loan.

1346
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:56,000
Nicolo Casale, Trasale, what was it again? Casale I believe.

1347
01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:57,000
I think Casale.

1348
01:05:57,000 --> 01:05:59,000
And Mario Gila for six million.

1349
01:05:59,000 --> 01:06:00,000
So they have been active.

1350
01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:02,000
The question is, are these guys any good?

1351
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:05,000
Maybe for squad depth, I guess.

1352
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:11,000
To address the loss of Strakosha, I do want to bring up that they were originally...

1353
01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:15,000
Lazio were originally looking at Karinasecki.

1354
01:06:15,000 --> 01:06:16,000
They were looking at Karinasecki.

1355
01:06:16,000 --> 01:06:17,000
They were admiring him from afar.

1356
01:06:17,000 --> 01:06:24,000
They needed to reach a deal with Atalanta to try to get him, obviously, to play with Lazio.

1357
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:28,000
And that is a young goalkeeper, Italian, local, really, really talented.

1358
01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:31,000
He's a fucking great goalkeeper, really young as well.

1359
01:06:31,000 --> 01:06:36,000
But for some reason, it doesn't seem like that is too likely to go through.

1360
01:06:36,000 --> 01:06:41,000
And they shifted their focus at a point to Vicario, who's also a great option for them.

1361
01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:42,000
Vicario.

1362
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:43,000
I really like Vicario.

1363
01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:44,000
I agree.

1364
01:06:44,000 --> 01:06:55,000
I think what I was going to say about the Lazio signings, the one that's interesting is they've got Romagnoli at centre back on a three.

1365
01:06:55,000 --> 01:07:01,000
They've got another defender in Ciasale, which is quite interesting.

1366
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:04,000
But then they've got this guy, Mario Ghila, from Real.

1367
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:05,000
Real, 21.

1368
01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:07,000
I don't think he's played a single game for them.

1369
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:09,000
Honestly, I never heard of him before.

1370
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:10,000
I did any research.

1371
01:07:10,000 --> 01:07:11,000
No, absolutely never.

1372
01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:18,000
But sometimes these clubs sign these random players from somewhere.

1373
01:07:18,000 --> 01:07:20,000
And all of a sudden, they end up being very important players.

1374
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:26,000
So maybe, maybe this guy, if he actually has anything about him, he could actually be someone that could help out.

1375
01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:29,000
Just two appearances for Real Madrid and that's it.

1376
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:31,000
The rest is for Real Madrid B.

1377
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:38,000
Sorry, I'm going to go back to this, but I just found more information about the Kainesecki and Vicario thing.

1378
01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:49,000
Atalanta wanted 18 million for Kainesecki, and Lazio's highest bid was a reported 12 million plus 3 million in add-ons.

1379
01:07:49,000 --> 01:07:53,000
So no wonder they want to sell their midfielders as well.

1380
01:07:53,000 --> 01:07:56,000
They have Mousseau. Atalanta have Mousseau.

1381
01:07:56,000 --> 01:08:00,000
So Kainesecki might be interested to move because they have a young keeper there.

1382
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:04,000
And if he wants to play and he's a young, good goalkeeper, he might want to move.

1383
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:08,000
But yes, I don't think there's much more to add about Lazio.

1384
01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:16,000
It looks like they're keen to offload one of the two centre midfielders that are two of the best centre midfielders that are in the league.

1385
01:08:16,000 --> 01:08:20,000
Luis Alberto and Milenkovic Savic, and they're looking to offload.

1386
01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:24,000
They are keen to hear what people can bring to the table.

1387
01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:27,000
But I don't think they can sell them with Letito, man.

1388
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:30,000
I think Letito will always demand too much.

1389
01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:36,000
His players will always end up leaving on a freeway for a reduced price, because he's too greedy.

1390
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:38,000
I could see that happening, to be fair.

1391
01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:42,000
You know who I think Lazio might actually try to sign?

1392
01:08:42,000 --> 01:08:47,000
And this is purely because I know Sarri from Chelsea time.

1393
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:48,000
And the players...

1394
01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:50,000
Chelsea really is reconnected.

1395
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:51,000
It's not.

1396
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:57,000
And with Milen and Lazio in particular, Lazio because of Sarri, but with Milen there's quite a few players.

1397
01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:59,000
There's Rudiger as well from Roma.

1398
01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:02,000
We both shared the Bacchaiocco with the Mites.

1399
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:04,000
Exactly.

1400
01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:07,000
And Van Ginkgel.

1401
01:09:07,000 --> 01:09:12,000
Yeah, Van Ginkgel. Yeah, there was also SCN, by the way, who was a class player.

1402
01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:15,000
But they have...

1403
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:17,000
I think Inter might make...

1404
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:23,000
Sorry, Lazio might make a move for Ruben Loftus-Cic, because Sarri loved him.

1405
01:09:23,000 --> 01:09:33,000
And there were rumours that Lazio were thinking of offering Milenkovic Savic in an exchange for two players at Chelsea.

1406
01:09:33,000 --> 01:09:35,000
The other one I think was Emerson, someone like that.

1407
01:09:35,000 --> 01:09:39,000
Which would be interesting because they need another left-back as well.

1408
01:09:39,000 --> 01:09:42,000
I don't know how true these rumours were.

1409
01:09:42,000 --> 01:09:49,000
And if they are, I don't think Chelsea would accept for the simple reason that Chelsea don't need more number eights at the moment.

1410
01:09:49,000 --> 01:09:51,000
So I don't think it makes sense for them.

1411
01:09:51,000 --> 01:09:59,000
And if you have Ruben, kind of, who's younger and is doing well at Chelsea, why get rid of him for someone who you don't know if he's going to do well?

1412
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:07,000
But I do think that maybe if they have the money, they might even just launch a bid and see if anyone bites.

1413
01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:09,000
That's what it means.

1414
01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:18,000
Because what Sarri has is that once he gets... he can find two good young players and make them into very, very top players.

1415
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:22,000
Hudson O'Doher was brilliant with him and so was Loftus-Cic.

1416
01:10:22,000 --> 01:10:30,000
And even now, even with Napoli and now with Lazio, the younger players always did well with him.

1417
01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:33,000
So it would be interesting to see what he does.

1418
01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:39,000
But aside from that, I don't think there's too much else to say about Lazio.

1419
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:41,000
I don't think there's anything to write home about.

1420
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:45,000
It looks like they're going for continuity more than anything.

1421
01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:49,000
And where they were seriously struggling, it's maybe time to address that.

1422
01:10:49,000 --> 01:10:50,000
However, I am concerned...

1423
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:52,000
Sarri has left this.

1424
01:10:52,000 --> 01:10:54,000
Oh no!

1425
01:10:54,000 --> 01:11:03,000
But to talk about not to neglect the defense in this conversation, they lost Luis Felipe on a free and they're going to offload at Cherubi as well.

1426
01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:06,000
So they need to do something about that defense.

1427
01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:11,000
It could be that the players that Jake mentioned, some of them could be the centre backs as well.

1428
01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:14,000
One of them was a keeper you were checking, right?

1429
01:11:14,000 --> 01:11:16,000
Yes, Maximiliano.

1430
01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:21,000
Maximiliano was the keeper, 10 million, and the other one was a 5'5 central midfielder.

1431
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:23,000
Antonio, right?

1432
01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:24,000
Antonio, exactly.

1433
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:26,000
It's Sire, you mean?

1434
01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:29,000
Marcos Antonio of 7.5 million.

1435
01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:30,000
Those are the guys.

1436
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:32,000
And then Gryla is the Real Madrid guy, 6 million.

1437
01:11:32,000 --> 01:11:34,000
For someone who's played two professional games, 6 million.

1438
01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:36,000
I find it a bit odd.

1439
01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:39,000
They're not banking on natural talent, like straight up.

1440
01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:41,000
Shall we move on to Roma?

1441
01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:43,000
It's been a bit all over the place over there.

1442
01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:46,000
Shall we delve into it a little bit here?

1443
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:47,000
Nice.

1444
01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:51,000
So, confirmed they have Nemanja Matic.

1445
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:54,000
33-0, that's the third time Mourinho has signed him.

1446
01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:59,000
You know, he's an older Brian Cristante, in my opinion.

1447
01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:01,000
What do you think about Matic?

1448
01:12:01,000 --> 01:12:03,000
He's going to bring the experience, eh?

1449
01:12:03,000 --> 01:12:05,000
As fellow Prem heads, what do you think?

1450
01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:09,000
I could be bare to stand watching him play.

1451
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:11,000
He's the common factor, dude, between all of us.

1452
01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:13,000
He's the common link.

1453
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:14,000
Oh my God.

1454
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:15,000
Premier League?

1455
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:16,000
Yeah.

1456
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:17,000
There you go.

1457
01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:18,000
We're a bit broader, but...

1458
01:12:18,000 --> 01:12:20,000
If only he'd join me, though.

1459
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:23,000
There you go.

1460
01:12:23,000 --> 01:12:25,000
I don't know, I think he's...

1461
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:28,000
I don't really have much good things to say about him.

1462
01:12:28,000 --> 01:12:32,000
He's a good player in the sense that if you ask him to play, he plays.

1463
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:33,000
There's no bullshit from him.

1464
01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:36,000
He just plays and he does his job.

1465
01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:38,000
What does he do on the pitch?

1466
01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:40,000
Breaks down play, he's a crusher.

1467
01:12:40,000 --> 01:12:42,000
He's a proper destroyer.

1468
01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:46,000
He's just going to go in, stop the counter, no fanning about.

1469
01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:48,000
If you're going to try and beat him...

1470
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:50,000
But can he keep up?

1471
01:12:50,000 --> 01:12:52,000
Maybe in Italy he can do it better.

1472
01:12:52,000 --> 01:12:54,000
Maybe in Italy he can do it better.

1473
01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:57,000
When he was at Chelsea, again, not to keep mentioning Chelsea every time I speak,

1474
01:12:57,000 --> 01:13:04,000
but genuinely, genuinely, when he was with us, obviously he was a young guy, in fairness.

1475
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:07,000
But the first... because he was with us twice.

1476
01:13:07,000 --> 01:13:10,000
And the first time he was with us, his debut, he bossed the Iaia Turia,

1477
01:13:10,000 --> 01:13:12,000
which I don't think anyone has ever done, ever.

1478
01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:15,000
And in his second spell, he won the Premier League with Conte.

1479
01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:20,000
So he can give something, but again, he's quite old.

1480
01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:23,000
And I don't think he's a major improvement to Roma.

1481
01:13:23,000 --> 01:13:27,000
But he will help, definitely, having an experienced head

1482
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:31,000
that is going to keep things ticking as well, if needed.

1483
01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:32,000
Mourinho loves those signings.

1484
01:13:32,000 --> 01:13:33,000
Exactly.

1485
01:13:33,000 --> 01:13:37,000
So he has the Mourinho mentality, so he'll fit in,

1486
01:13:37,000 --> 01:13:39,000
but we don't know how much of an asset he'll be on the pitch,

1487
01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:40,000
I think in the training ground.

1488
01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:43,000
He'll bring some experience and he'll get people...

1489
01:13:43,000 --> 01:13:44,000
And it's low risk, anyway.

1490
01:13:44,000 --> 01:13:45,000
Exactly, exactly.

1491
01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:50,000
It's one year on a 6 million, 6 million a year deal.

1492
01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:55,000
So, yeah, Sergio Oliveira was confirmed out for them.

1493
01:13:55,000 --> 01:13:57,000
I believe he's going to Galatasaray.

1494
01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:58,000
He came, spent six months and left.

1495
01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:00,000
He's basically David Beckham.

1496
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:02,000
What the hell? He left?

1497
01:14:02,000 --> 01:14:03,000
How random.

1498
01:14:03,000 --> 01:14:05,000
How fucking random.

1499
01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:06,000
What a cameo, huh?

1500
01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:07,000
He really wanted to face Roma.

1501
01:14:07,000 --> 01:14:08,000
No, he just went back.

1502
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:09,000
He was alone, I believe.

1503
01:14:09,000 --> 01:14:10,000
Oh.

1504
01:14:10,000 --> 01:14:13,000
I believe he didn't exercise the option.

1505
01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:15,000
Alveira, Sergio Oliveira.

1506
01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:16,000
Oh, yes.

1507
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:18,000
Wow.

1508
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:22,000
So, yeah, and then they're linked with a bunch of players,

1509
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:25,000
like so many fucking players.

1510
01:14:25,000 --> 01:14:26,000
Berardi.

1511
01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:27,000
Berardi.

1512
01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:30,000
Oh, no, he was sold to Galatasaray, never mind, sorry.

1513
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:34,000
No worries, he was sold to Galatasaray.

1514
01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:36,000
From, by Porto.

1515
01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:37,000
By Porto.

1516
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:39,000
Ah, but they still didn't exercise anything

1517
01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:40,000
because he went back from...

1518
01:14:40,000 --> 01:14:41,000
Porto B.

1519
01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:44,000
He was playing, he played a game with Porto B apparently.

1520
01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:46,000
Must have fallen out.

1521
01:14:46,000 --> 01:14:48,000
The disrespect.

1522
01:14:48,000 --> 01:14:50,000
He's a decent player.

1523
01:14:50,000 --> 01:14:52,000
Oh, that was 2019.

1524
01:14:52,000 --> 01:14:53,000
Okay, okay.

1525
01:14:53,000 --> 01:14:54,000
Okay, that makes sense.

1526
01:14:54,000 --> 01:14:55,000
That was a while ago.

1527
01:14:55,000 --> 01:14:56,000
Zaha.

1528
01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:58,000
Zaha is interesting.

1529
01:14:58,000 --> 01:14:59,000
That's cool.

1530
01:14:59,000 --> 01:15:01,000
I can't see it happening though.

1531
01:15:01,000 --> 01:15:06,000
I don't think it will happen because to get Crystal Palace's captain

1532
01:15:06,000 --> 01:15:11,000
and, you know, you need to, I mean, Crystal Palace is not too expensive,

1533
01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:15,000
but they need to pay quite a bit because you'll be buying a captain you need to spend.

1534
01:15:15,000 --> 01:15:21,000
And it would be random because he's, you know, he's only ever played at that level,

1535
01:15:21,000 --> 01:15:23,000
you know, Crystal Palace.

1536
01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:26,000
So he was at United, but he was too shit there.

1537
01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:29,000
Another common theme of this podcast.

1538
01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:32,000
But he's like, I don't think he's...

1539
01:15:32,000 --> 01:15:33,000
It would be interesting though.

1540
01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:35,000
I'd like him to move there though.

1541
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:36,000
He's a very exciting player.

1542
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:37,000
He's very direct.

1543
01:15:37,000 --> 01:15:38,000
He's explosive.

1544
01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:39,000
Exactly.

1545
01:15:39,000 --> 01:15:41,000
And he's the kind of winger Mourinho will like as well.

1546
01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:45,000
So I think it would be interesting if they do get him, but I highly doubt.

1547
01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:46,000
I agree.

1548
01:15:46,000 --> 01:15:50,000
And I think they do need to address the left side a little bit as well

1549
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:53,000
because like El-Sharawi was coming on at that point.

1550
01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:56,000
Who was starting left wing for Roma?

1551
01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:58,000
El-Sharawi was coming on.

1552
01:15:58,000 --> 01:15:59,000
El-Sharawi was coming on.

1553
01:15:59,000 --> 01:16:02,000
They were playing with two attackers.

1554
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:04,000
Yeah, because then they were playing with Zaniola.

1555
01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:07,000
Zaniola was trying to carry and then El-Sharawi was coming in.

1556
01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:08,000
Exactly.

1557
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:11,000
They're looking at Isco as well a little bit.

1558
01:16:11,000 --> 01:16:13,000
I don't know how true that still is.

1559
01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:15,000
I feel like everyone looks at Isco at some point.

1560
01:16:15,000 --> 01:16:16,000
Yeah, Isco is just...

1561
01:16:16,000 --> 01:16:18,000
Nothing normally happens.

1562
01:16:18,000 --> 01:16:21,000
He's in the window like you look past as you want.

1563
01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:23,000
No, he's a Malta bro actually.

1564
01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:25,000
He was, he was.

1565
01:16:25,000 --> 01:16:26,000
Him and Alfonso Davies.

1566
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:27,000
He didn't have to say anything.

1567
01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:28,000
Alfonso Davies.

1568
01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:29,000
Yeah, Alfonso Davies.

1569
01:16:29,000 --> 01:16:34,000
Interrupted lessons of a football tournament for the students.

1570
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:35,000
Fucking right.

1571
01:16:35,000 --> 01:16:37,000
Other English language schools are available.

1572
01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:41,000
It was like, assistant amendment.

1573
01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:43,000
Alfonso Davies.

1574
01:16:43,000 --> 01:16:44,000
Gino Bala.

1575
01:16:44,000 --> 01:16:47,000
My friends and I used to do this thing to make each other laugh.

1576
01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:52,000
Like when we'd be walking in Slema, we'd say, imagine just like,

1577
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:54,000
Yaya Ture starts walking towards us.

1578
01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:56,000
I used to get a really kick about it.

1579
01:16:56,000 --> 01:16:59,000
We used to start laughing like seeing Kolo Ture in the background somewhere.

1580
01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:03,000
And this actually happens to people like he interrupted their five aside.

1581
01:17:03,000 --> 01:17:06,000
Alfonso Davies, incredibly random man.

1582
01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:08,000
Insane.

1583
01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:13,000
Frattese was something at a point he was very close to joining them.

1584
01:17:13,000 --> 01:17:15,000
But I don't think Rambo wanted to comment.

1585
01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:17,000
Frattese Steyn.

1586
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:20,000
Frattese Steyn, that's what I think.

1587
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:23,000
That is a man in a Sasuolo kit speaking.

1588
01:17:23,000 --> 01:17:25,000
The listeners have no idea what we're weighing.

1589
01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:26,000
It's true.

1590
01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:30,000
Should we mention it now or is it a bit insignificant now?

1591
01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:31,000
It's kind of fun.

1592
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:36,000
I'm in a vintage third kit Milan kit from 1995.

1593
01:17:36,000 --> 01:17:38,000
And the pearls and the mustache.

1594
01:17:38,000 --> 01:17:40,000
Pearls and the mustache.

1595
01:17:40,000 --> 01:17:41,000
Because I'm like that.

1596
01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:45,000
I'm in a Sasuolo kit with the best Italian right midfielder at the moment.

1597
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:47,000
Mr. Berardi.

1598
01:17:47,000 --> 01:17:54,000
And with a Latio kit home of last season with none other than Ciro Immobile on the back.

1599
01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:55,000
Nice.

1600
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:58,000
I'm Drake and I felt like this should have come at the beginning.

1601
01:17:58,000 --> 01:18:02,000
And I'm an Alfonso Home kit of last season.

1602
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:04,000
One of the worst teams in the league.

1603
01:18:04,000 --> 01:18:05,000
One of the worst teams in the league.

1604
01:18:05,000 --> 01:18:06,000
The worst.

1605
01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:08,000
But we're on the loveliest kit I've ever seen.

1606
01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:09,000
How cool it is.

1607
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:10,000
It is beautiful.

1608
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:11,000
It is phenomenal.

1609
01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:13,000
Hey man, it's really cool.

1610
01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:15,000
I feel bad wearing it.

1611
01:18:15,000 --> 01:18:17,000
Can Sasuolo relax though?

1612
01:18:17,000 --> 01:18:20,000
Like 30 million for Frattese they're asking for.

1613
01:18:20,000 --> 01:18:23,000
I think he needs another season consistently.

1614
01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:25,000
The Verona president passed a comment.

1615
01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:29,000
He said like we have no reason to not charge as much as Sasuolo are charging.

1616
01:18:29,000 --> 01:18:31,000
They're fucking crazy.

1617
01:18:31,000 --> 01:18:34,000
That's not exactly what he said but that was the vibe.

1618
01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:37,000
I think Sasuolo are really like on high and over valuing their players.

1619
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:40,000
They have hot talents, very marketable at the business.

1620
01:18:40,000 --> 01:18:43,000
I think all those players are more or less worth it.

1621
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:45,000
At the end of the day it's business man.

1622
01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:47,000
They're saying we're open to sell.

1623
01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:50,000
But they want a good price for them because they're good players.

1624
01:18:50,000 --> 01:18:58,000
I mean 30 million for Frattese is a little bit high but he's a pretty darn good player.

1625
01:18:58,000 --> 01:19:00,000
Fair enough.

1626
01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,000
You can't tell but say fair enough.

1627
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:05,000
If someone wants to buy Simeone then give them 40 million.

1628
01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:11,000
What I'd say is valuations, people sometimes they tie it only to the player.

1629
01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:17,000
But really and truly the valuations are how much the club thinks they need to replace.

1630
01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:19,000
And that is something you need to keep in mind.

1631
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:23,000
For example there's this really good argument I've seen with certain players.

1632
01:19:23,000 --> 01:19:27,000
For example when they see big prices for like holding with fielders.

1633
01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:32,000
Whether it be like for example for Frattese 30 million you might see that's too much.

1634
01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:37,000
There's other sentiment fielders who are going for 60-70.

1635
01:19:37,000 --> 01:19:42,000
There's one sentiment fielder in particular who they're asking 150 million for for example.

1636
01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:45,000
So, I don't want to deck him right.

1637
01:19:45,000 --> 01:19:50,000
But 150 million is not how much the player is worth.

1638
01:19:50,000 --> 01:19:54,000
It's how much the club thinks they need to get adequate replacements.

1639
01:19:54,000 --> 01:19:56,000
On one player?

1640
01:19:56,000 --> 01:19:58,000
But that's not for one player.

1641
01:19:58,000 --> 01:20:03,000
It's to fill the gaps and perhaps they want to use that as an excuse.

1642
01:20:03,000 --> 01:20:05,000
I've never thought about it that way. It would make so much sense.

1643
01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:09,000
Because you need to keep in mind that sometimes when the players are overvalued

1644
01:20:09,000 --> 01:20:13,000
it is because the club thinks I need this amount of money

1645
01:20:13,000 --> 01:20:17,000
so that I can get adequate replacements or to improve the team.

1646
01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:19,000
It's a nice feeling to know that the club values you so high.

1647
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:21,000
That's true as well.

1648
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:23,000
It must be good for the club.

1649
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:25,000
It must be bad for the ego.

1650
01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:28,000
You need a bit of ego, man, and sports.

1651
01:20:28,000 --> 01:20:30,000
Not a big one, but you need a bit of one.

1652
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:33,000
Who else of Roma have been linked with?

1653
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:34,000
Man.

1654
01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:35,000
Celik.

1655
01:20:35,000 --> 01:20:37,000
Has he signed?

1656
01:20:37,000 --> 01:20:39,000
Celik I think signed.

1657
01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:41,000
He signed.

1658
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:43,000
I laughed because of the way you said man.

1659
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:48,000
I think Celik did sign. I think I saw it somewhere though.

1660
01:20:48,000 --> 01:20:50,000
Yes, he did. He played for Roma.

1661
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:52,000
And the Turkish national team.

1662
01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:53,000
He's 25 years old.

1663
01:20:53,000 --> 01:20:55,000
He's 6 foot 1, he's a defender.

1664
01:20:55,000 --> 01:20:57,000
Right back, exactly. 5'11".

1665
01:20:57,000 --> 01:21:01,000
He played for Lille as part of the title winning team.

1666
01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:03,000
Yes, Lille had...

1667
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:07,000
They had Celik, Botman and Sanchez all three that we mentioned today

1668
01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:13,000
that were all kind of the big players last year and the year before.

1669
01:21:13,000 --> 01:21:18,000
They also had Boracay Ilmaz who I think next year he turned 67.

1670
01:21:18,000 --> 01:21:23,000
Man, Lille are a fucking factory.

1671
01:21:23,000 --> 01:21:27,000
They make good products. They made Eden Hazard as well.

1672
01:21:27,000 --> 01:21:29,000
Eden Hazard, that's crazy.

1673
01:21:29,000 --> 01:21:31,000
Was Ozzy Mann from there as well?

1674
01:21:31,000 --> 01:21:33,000
Yes, he was. Ozzy Mann was from there as well.

1675
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:35,000
Crazy talent.

1676
01:21:35,000 --> 01:21:40,000
And they have this guy now, Jonathan David who's been linked to every club in the world.

1677
01:21:40,000 --> 01:21:43,000
Even Hamroos Sparta is really linked to that.

1678
01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:45,000
Pierre Calullo. Hello.

1679
01:21:45,000 --> 01:21:47,000
Ah, as well, yes.

1680
01:21:47,000 --> 01:21:49,000
Ah, he was with Lille as well.

1681
01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:51,000
Show some respect.

1682
01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:57,000
So it's a lot of flirt. I know Roma were flirting with Mertens as well.

1683
01:21:57,000 --> 01:22:00,000
I don't know how much that's going to happen but Mertens is leaving Naples.

1684
01:22:00,000 --> 01:22:02,000
No, I think he'll stay, man. I think he'll settle.

1685
01:22:02,000 --> 01:22:03,000
Really?

1686
01:22:03,000 --> 01:22:07,000
Yes, I think he'll accept it. The Maldives keep living in Naples like a gang.

1687
01:22:07,000 --> 01:22:08,000
Ciro.

1688
01:22:08,000 --> 01:22:09,000
What do you think?

1689
01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:11,000
No, I think Mertens will stay as well.

1690
01:22:11,000 --> 01:22:12,000
I think so.

1691
01:22:12,000 --> 01:22:20,000
Okay, I don't think there's much to add for Roma. I'm trying to have a think because I think we are missing something.

1692
01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:25,000
It's hard right now, yes. Thinking is really difficult.

1693
01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:31,000
They lost that Maitland Niles. That's something to say.

1694
01:22:31,000 --> 01:22:33,000
They will never survive without him.

1695
01:22:33,000 --> 01:22:36,000
You know, the next team is really fun, Fiorentina.

1696
01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:37,000
Yeah.

1697
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:42,000
The under Italiano. The team that did really well but still lost 4-0 to Odinese.

1698
01:22:42,000 --> 01:22:47,000
So what can we really say?

1699
01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:50,000
I'm interested to see what Luka Jovovich does.

1700
01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:51,000
Yeah, same.

1701
01:22:51,000 --> 01:23:00,000
Because he's a guy that, that season he had at Frankfurt, he looked like he was going to boss international football and become the next best thing.

1702
01:23:00,000 --> 01:23:05,000
Like what kind of what we're talking about now kind of. Honestly, I'm not exaggerating.

1703
01:23:05,000 --> 01:23:12,000
That season he was unbelievable and he was playing in a really cool team. That Frankfurt team is very, very cool.

1704
01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:15,000
Maud Draugr has a good signing, man.

1705
01:23:15,000 --> 01:23:21,000
Very, very, like he's a serious staple. Like, you know, it's pretty, it's pretty smart.

1706
01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:31,000
But I think, I think the guys that they've, that they've been linked with as well are smart and the guys that have got in are good.

1707
01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:38,000
I think, I think the most interesting one to see would be Jovovich though. I think he's going to be, I think he's going to be interesting.

1708
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:41,000
He said his goal is to score 30 goals.

1709
01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:43,000
That's maybe in two years.

1710
01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:45,000
Maybe three.

1711
01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:47,000
Over the course of two years.

1712
01:23:47,000 --> 01:23:55,000
Like Jovovich, like you said, he was insane at Frankfurt beyond belief. Like one of those sensations.

1713
01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:57,000
With Ante Rebic setting him up.

1714
01:23:57,000 --> 01:24:08,000
Got a move to Real, rotted on the bench for a lot of seasons, man. I know he was loaned back to Frankfurt at some point, but he spent most of the time rotting on the bench at Real.

1715
01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:12,000
And sometimes I see players who are on the bench.

1716
01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:13,000
Still?

1717
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:19,000
Last season he was on the bench for Real. The season before he was on loan.

1718
01:24:19,000 --> 01:24:27,000
Because I was just checking if he was on the, in the squad. Because Frankfurt won the Europa League this year, so maybe he had, he was there. But I don't know.

1719
01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:29,000
I'm entirely sure.

1720
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:32,000
He definitely didn't play the final, so I don't think so.

1721
01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:37,000
I think he was, I think he was on the OO with Real. Because I remember seeing him celebrating, but I think it was the Champions League.

1722
01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:39,000
It was at Frankfurt. It was on loan at Frankfurt.

1723
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:42,000
No, that's, that's 21 though. No, 21-22 Real.

1724
01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:43,000
Yeah.

1725
01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:45,000
There you go. Okay.

1726
01:24:45,000 --> 01:24:47,000
Played what? He played...

1727
01:24:47,000 --> 01:24:49,000
Oh no, okay. I thought he played one game.

1728
01:24:52,000 --> 01:24:54,000
Wait, no, but one start.

1729
01:24:54,000 --> 01:25:00,000
One start, there you go. One start. 14, 14 sub appearances. That's ridiculous.

1730
01:25:00,000 --> 01:25:02,000
Forgive him, Ašad.

1731
01:25:03,000 --> 01:25:06,000
Real gets 50% of his sell-on clause.

1732
01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:08,000
That's just a lazy deal.

1733
01:25:08,000 --> 01:25:09,000
Exactly.

1734
01:25:09,000 --> 01:25:11,000
It's like a take and fuck it. We'll see what happens.

1735
01:25:11,000 --> 01:25:13,000
50%!

1736
01:25:13,000 --> 01:25:15,000
50%! You never see that.

1737
01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:17,000
50% is mental.

1738
01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:21,000
They must have used that to get the price down as fuck, she's gonna be with us for life.

1739
01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:24,000
50%, that's ridiculous.

1740
01:25:24,000 --> 01:25:29,000
Speaking of Fiorentina's relationship with Real, Odriozola went back to Real, by the way.

1741
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:32,000
So no more Odriozola, try it back for Fiorentina.

1742
01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:33,000
It'll be a loss.

1743
01:25:33,000 --> 01:25:35,000
It will be a loss. I agree.

1744
01:25:35,000 --> 01:25:38,000
He was pretty good. But he looked like he needed more time, eh?

1745
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:41,000
But he looked like he'd be good in three years, he'd be really good. That's what...

1746
01:25:41,000 --> 01:25:43,000
I think it's another season, to be fair, man.

1747
01:25:43,000 --> 01:25:46,000
I think he started adapting towards the league.

1748
01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:48,000
Didn't they also lose to Torreira?

1749
01:25:48,000 --> 01:25:49,000
They did.

1750
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:51,000
And I think this is the biggest loss they've had.

1751
01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:54,000
But Mandragora might be at least in replacement if he stays fit.

1752
01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:58,000
Yes, but Torreira was very capable of scoring goals.

1753
01:25:58,000 --> 01:26:00,000
Yes, inserting himself.

1754
01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:06,000
And he's a very little industrious Uruguayan, so he was a good player for them.

1755
01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:09,000
And I think he's gagging for a leave, to leave.

1756
01:26:09,000 --> 01:26:10,000
But...

1757
01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:12,000
Yeah, yeah, yeah, Fiore.

1758
01:26:12,000 --> 01:26:15,000
I think it's done now. I don't see him going back, Torreira.

1759
01:26:15,000 --> 01:26:16,000
He can't, it's impossible.

1760
01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:18,000
He's not going to play for Arsenal, for sure.

1761
01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:23,000
I was watching this attentively and I've done my research.

1762
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:27,000
And basically, Torreira, 26-year-old, by the way, sometimes for some reason I forget he's at Youngbrook

1763
01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:30,000
because he's been around for a while, that 26.

1764
01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:35,000
He'll not be exercising Arsenal's option to buy for 15 million,

1765
01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:40,000
which considering 15 million for a player that was your star player this season before,

1766
01:26:40,000 --> 01:26:43,000
excluding Vlachovic, Torreira was their star player.

1767
01:26:43,000 --> 01:26:50,000
You don't pay 15 million for him, especially when you made that money off of Vlachovic, off of Chiesa,

1768
01:26:50,000 --> 01:26:52,000
and all of these, you don't pay 15 million for Torreira.

1769
01:26:52,000 --> 01:26:56,000
I think you're fucking up a bit, man, in my opinion.

1770
01:26:56,000 --> 01:26:59,000
Torreira apparently did everything he could to stay at the club,

1771
01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:02,000
but Commissar blames his agent for not complying.

1772
01:27:02,000 --> 01:27:05,000
The classic scenario, no you shit, no you shit.

1773
01:27:05,000 --> 01:27:09,000
And then Torreira spoke out against the club as well,

1774
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:14,000
so that all ended and it's now a sad relationship between Fiorentina and Torreira.

1775
01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:17,000
So he's done, he's gone, officially.

1776
01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:21,000
You're a Prem head, do you think he'll fit back into Arsenal's plans?

1777
01:27:21,000 --> 01:27:22,000
He won't play for Arsenal, no way.

1778
01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:24,000
Yo, you're a Prem head.

1779
01:27:25,000 --> 01:27:27,000
No, he won't play for sure.

1780
01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:32,000
Okay, and then there's some rumours for Fiorentina.

1781
01:27:32,000 --> 01:27:39,000
One of them is, these are so outdated, Jesus Christ,

1782
01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:42,000
apparently Vania Mlinkovic-Savage.

1783
01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:44,000
Ah yes, he was mentioned, that would be crazy.

1784
01:27:44,000 --> 01:27:48,000
What's up with Fiorentina just having good goalers and not being happy with them?

1785
01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:50,000
Hey, literally.

1786
01:27:50,000 --> 01:27:52,000
Dragovski, Terracchiano, like that's not bad.

1787
01:27:52,000 --> 01:27:54,000
You think they're after a goaler.

1788
01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:59,000
And here it says apparently they were battling it out with Brentford for Mlinkovic-Savage,

1789
01:27:59,000 --> 01:28:01,000
but I think Brentford have their guy now.

1790
01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:02,000
Maybe not with Brentford.

1791
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:03,000
Maybe Strakosha.

1792
01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:04,000
Strakosha, yeah.

1793
01:28:04,000 --> 01:28:08,000
Ah, as they got Strakosha Brentford, so they're sorted in the goalkeeping department.

1794
01:28:10,000 --> 01:28:14,000
But aside from that, Fiorentina brought in more players, surely.

1795
01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:17,000
Fiorentina brought in a couple of people.

1796
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:19,000
Not yet, they only brought in Jovic so far.

1797
01:28:19,000 --> 01:28:22,000
Okay, apparently they're interested in Doddo or Dodo.

1798
01:28:22,000 --> 01:28:25,000
No, they brought him, no, he's that, no, Doddo.

1799
01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:30,000
Yes, there's a confirmation of 14.5 million plus 3.5 million in bonuses.

1800
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:31,000
That's a lot.

1801
01:28:32,000 --> 01:28:37,000
23-year-old, exciting, right back, who's recently picked up by Shakhtar for 2 million

1802
01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:40,000
and is now valued at 25 million.

1803
01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:44,000
And Bayern Munich were interested in buying him.

1804
01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:45,000
He played under Deserbi.

1805
01:28:45,000 --> 01:28:46,000
Could be another Aaron Hickey.

1806
01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:49,000
He learned the Deserbi way and now he's off to Roma.

1807
01:28:49,000 --> 01:28:51,000
That could be quite cool, to be fair.

1808
01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:52,000
You take him on fun, though, guys.

1809
01:28:52,000 --> 01:28:54,000
He's off to Fiorentina.

1810
01:28:54,000 --> 01:28:55,000
What did I say?

1811
01:28:55,000 --> 01:28:56,000
Roma, man.

1812
01:28:56,000 --> 01:29:00,000
He's off to Fiorentina.

1813
01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:02,000
We've been drinking, we've been thumping.

1814
01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:09,000
He might be someone to pick up in the Asta for like a cheeky, less than five, no,

1815
01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:13,000
so on, to be fair, he's right back, so you can go off a bit more.

1816
01:29:13,000 --> 01:29:16,000
But hopefully he's within the 10-credit range, so you can...

1817
01:29:16,000 --> 01:29:18,000
That's the attractive range.

1818
01:29:19,000 --> 01:29:21,000
I'm sure we're missing something for Fiorentina,

1819
01:29:21,000 --> 01:29:23,000
but I think we're happy to move on if we don't think so.

1820
01:29:23,000 --> 01:29:27,000
Nice. So we look at Atalanta.

1821
01:29:28,000 --> 01:29:30,000
Right? Massive disappointment last year.

1822
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:31,000
Biggest losers.

1823
01:29:32,000 --> 01:29:34,000
Was it the players? Was it the manager?

1824
01:29:34,000 --> 01:29:36,000
There was that whole debate. What do you guys think?

1825
01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:37,000
A bit of both.

1826
01:29:37,000 --> 01:29:41,000
I think there was like a dystemia going on there.

1827
01:29:41,000 --> 01:29:44,000
It was like consistent depression, man, at Atalanta.

1828
01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:46,000
It was failure to comply to the system,

1829
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:48,000
and that was their strongest point, being able to fill the gaps.

1830
01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:51,000
Plug and play, that was their favourite phrase.

1831
01:29:51,000 --> 01:29:53,000
Yeah, plug and play.

1832
01:29:53,000 --> 01:29:56,000
You were like, bro, I've never heard the word play, plug and play.

1833
01:29:56,000 --> 01:29:58,000
You've used so many times in my life.

1834
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:01,000
I think I'm going to cry.

1835
01:30:01,000 --> 01:30:03,000
Just plug and play, bro, plug and play.

1836
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:06,000
It's true, though.

1837
01:30:06,000 --> 01:30:10,000
It's really sad to see them do so badly,

1838
01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:13,000
especially because Atalanta is Atalanta, you know,

1839
01:30:13,000 --> 01:30:15,000
and they're so exciting.

1840
01:30:15,000 --> 01:30:18,000
They have this really insane coach

1841
01:30:18,000 --> 01:30:22,000
who manages to get the best out of videography sometimes.

1842
01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:24,000
He ain't dancing no more, is he?

1843
01:30:24,000 --> 01:30:28,000
Yeah, he's no longer sexy.

1844
01:30:30,000 --> 01:30:34,000
But Atalanta have had like very slight movement in the market.

1845
01:30:34,000 --> 01:30:37,000
One of them is that obviously Pesina's off to Monza.

1846
01:30:37,000 --> 01:30:41,000
Brilliant signing for Monza, quite a loss, I would say, for Atalanta,

1847
01:30:41,000 --> 01:30:44,000
but they are stacked in the attacking midfield department.

1848
01:30:44,000 --> 01:30:46,000
They are, but to be honest, I thought Pesina would side next year.

1849
01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:49,000
Yeah, but Mirantsog's been on the up as well.

1850
01:30:49,000 --> 01:30:51,000
Mirantsog is looking very good.

1851
01:30:51,000 --> 01:30:53,000
Every time he plays, he looks really good, man.

1852
01:30:53,000 --> 01:30:57,000
But Pesina, granted, he's a player who is really capable of inserting himself.

1853
01:30:57,000 --> 01:30:59,000
He can't speak well about Russians, though, anymore.

1854
01:30:59,000 --> 01:31:00,000
Yeah, exactly.

1855
01:31:02,000 --> 01:31:04,000
You know, he should play for Manxaktar.

1856
01:31:04,000 --> 01:31:11,000
Oh my god. Oh my goodness.

1857
01:31:11,000 --> 01:31:16,000
Brilliant. They've also confirmed the signing of Salernitana sensation.

1858
01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:22,000
Ederson, bro, 15 million, Lovato and some guy named Okoli.

1859
01:31:23,000 --> 01:31:26,000
They fucking got them four.

1860
01:31:26,000 --> 01:31:29,000
That's honestly like crazy.

1861
01:31:29,000 --> 01:31:35,000
A player who did relatively well at Salernitana looked to give them a creative boost,

1862
01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:38,000
a little bit of energy, a bit of creativity going forward.

1863
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:41,000
But I don't think it justifies that amount.

1864
01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:44,000
No, it seems like Atalanta are losing more than they're gaining here.

1865
01:31:45,000 --> 01:31:51,000
Aha, and I think that has been a bit of a theme for Atalanta in this transfer window

1866
01:31:51,000 --> 01:31:55,000
because as well I heard, bro, I don't know if it's bullshit, like correct me if I'm wrong,

1867
01:31:55,000 --> 01:32:03,000
that they've offered Duvan Zapata as part of a potential deal for Inter striker Andrea Pinamonte.

1868
01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:05,000
You think it's the other way around, right?

1869
01:32:05,000 --> 01:32:07,000
Literally.

1870
01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:10,000
It's not going to show youth is really being highly valued nowadays.

1871
01:32:10,000 --> 01:32:14,000
It's Pinamonte and cash for Zapata. It's not Zapata and cash for Pinamonte.

1872
01:32:14,000 --> 01:32:15,000
That's crazy.

1873
01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:18,000
It's impossible. Like why are Atalanta doing that business, man?

1874
01:32:18,000 --> 01:32:23,000
Pinamonte had a pretty nice season.

1875
01:32:23,000 --> 01:32:24,000
He did, he did.

1876
01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:26,000
He did, yes, he did. The ceiling is really high.

1877
01:32:26,000 --> 01:32:29,000
I think Gasparini sees that he can make a monster out of him, man.

1878
01:32:29,000 --> 01:32:31,000
And Zapata has been so moody, man.

1879
01:32:31,000 --> 01:32:33,000
That's true. He's been injury-prone.

1880
01:32:33,000 --> 01:32:38,000
And he's been so injury-prone, man. And you need consistency to win, to get up into the league.

1881
01:32:38,000 --> 01:32:41,000
You can't have spurts of good, you can't bank on that. It's hard to work with.

1882
01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:46,000
Yeah, but as a negotiation tool, you should have enough for Duvan Zapata to not have to offer that much cash, I think.

1883
01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:49,000
You can't just say, hey, StrainSwap will give you five mil, at most.

1884
01:32:49,000 --> 01:32:51,000
I don't even think...

1885
01:32:51,000 --> 01:32:53,000
You need to give the five mil.

1886
01:32:53,000 --> 01:32:56,000
The money should be involved. Like it's Zapata, then they...

1887
01:32:56,000 --> 01:33:02,000
Pinamonte is a player who, in the right environment, can become a very fucking good player.

1888
01:33:02,000 --> 01:33:03,000
He could.

1889
01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:08,000
Like, if you look at him under Gasparini in that system, he could actually...

1890
01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:12,000
I think it would be quite a good signing for them. I think it's being slept on a little bit.

1891
01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:15,000
It might be, yeah. 23 years old.

1892
01:33:15,000 --> 01:33:21,000
They're investing in the future, eh? But I still think there's a more clever way of doing business to get them on board.

1893
01:33:21,000 --> 01:33:26,000
Maybe they want to really get off... Maybe they want to offload Zapata completely and keep Morrion and Pinamonte.

1894
01:33:26,000 --> 01:33:30,000
That's apparently it. And apparently...

1895
01:33:30,000 --> 01:33:36,000
Apparently, Inter are holding out for an offer of at least 18 million.

1896
01:33:36,000 --> 01:33:40,000
And they're only interested in a straight cash offer.

1897
01:33:40,000 --> 01:33:44,000
So that's that move off in that case.

1898
01:33:44,000 --> 01:33:48,000
That makes sense, straight cash for Pinamonte. Makes no sense.

1899
01:33:48,000 --> 01:33:53,000
So they'd rather have cash than do one Zapata, which is interesting.

1900
01:33:53,000 --> 01:33:57,000
Other than that, I've seen West Ham are kind of flirting with...

1901
01:33:57,000 --> 01:34:01,000
West Ham just need a striker, because they've been playing...

1902
01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:03,000
They're going to get Skamaka, right? Most likely.

1903
01:34:03,000 --> 01:34:06,000
That's what the rumors were. And 40M as well.

1904
01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:07,000
I'd like to see that.

1905
01:34:07,000 --> 01:34:14,000
And the front runners for Skamaka were West Ham and PSG.

1906
01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:18,000
In an alternate universe, that makes sense, but not in this one.

1907
01:34:18,000 --> 01:34:20,000
West Ham and PSG. First of all...

1908
01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:22,000
They're going to breathe the same air.

1909
01:34:22,000 --> 01:34:23,000
Exactly.

1910
01:34:23,000 --> 01:34:28,000
First of all, PSG, what on earth do they need another striker for?

1911
01:34:28,000 --> 01:34:29,000
It's ridiculous.

1912
01:34:29,000 --> 01:34:35,000
And secondly, I honestly think... I like Skamaka. I think he's pretty decent.

1913
01:34:35,000 --> 01:34:39,000
The Italian Peter Crouch, as you always say. I think he's pretty decent.

1914
01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:43,000
But I think genuinely in the Premier League, he wants to go within six goals.

1915
01:34:43,000 --> 01:34:48,000
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Listen to me.

1916
01:34:48,000 --> 01:34:51,000
Listen to me. Listen to my point.

1917
01:34:51,000 --> 01:34:53,000
Not because the Prem is too hard.

1918
01:34:53,000 --> 01:35:01,000
Just because the Strikers that were in the Prem right now...

1919
01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:04,000
Right now. We'll see with Harlan. Maybe Harlan will change that.

1920
01:35:04,000 --> 01:35:10,000
But the Strikers that were in the Prem now are the ones who are in the classic number nines.

1921
01:35:10,000 --> 01:35:15,000
And that's my only argument about this. And Skamaka is a classic number nine.

1922
01:35:15,000 --> 01:35:17,000
I think Skamaka would do well.

1923
01:35:17,000 --> 01:35:20,000
I think Skamaka would do well to stay in Serie A, whatever he does.

1924
01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:23,000
What qualities do you feel Skamaka brings to the table?

1925
01:35:23,000 --> 01:35:29,000
He is a classic number nine in his stature. He's fucking tall as fuck.

1926
01:35:29,000 --> 01:35:31,000
He's strong and he's good on the ball.

1927
01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:37,000
But there has been a handful of games this season where Skamaka has received the ball.

1928
01:35:37,000 --> 01:35:38,000
Turned and shot.

1929
01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:42,000
Turned and shot and it's flown in, man.

1930
01:35:42,000 --> 01:35:45,000
And that's something that probably any team will take.

1931
01:35:45,000 --> 01:35:46,000
Any team would take that.

1932
01:35:46,000 --> 01:35:51,000
Any team would take a fucking guy who's ready to shoot from God knows where and score.

1933
01:35:51,000 --> 01:35:52,000
Get a goal out of nothing.

1934
01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:55,000
The goals he was scoring were fucking crazy at the moment.

1935
01:35:55,000 --> 01:35:56,000
They were wild. They were wild.

1936
01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:58,000
He has such a shot on him.

1937
01:35:58,000 --> 01:36:02,000
And I think that with a bit more...

1938
01:36:02,000 --> 01:36:03,000
Tuning.

1939
01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:06,000
Physicality and tuning, he could be quite well tuned for the Premier League.

1940
01:36:06,000 --> 01:36:08,000
And he'll be scoring one in six goals.

1941
01:36:08,000 --> 01:36:12,000
The Premier League, there's a lot of balls in the air, obviously.

1942
01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:17,000
And he's a big guy. He's really good at taking the ball down, volleying, taking it on the volley, heading it.

1943
01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:18,000
He's good in those departments.

1944
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:20,000
His weakness is being Italian, man.

1945
01:36:20,000 --> 01:36:24,000
That's it. In the Premier League, they just don't have the history.

1946
01:36:24,000 --> 01:36:25,000
They don't work out, man.

1947
01:36:25,000 --> 01:36:26,000
That's it.

1948
01:36:26,000 --> 01:36:29,000
Zola is the only one who's been alright.

1949
01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:31,000
And Di Canio.

1950
01:36:31,000 --> 01:36:33,000
But Di Canio used to cry a lot.

1951
01:36:33,000 --> 01:36:37,000
He would go to England and barely sniff the turf on the pitch.

1952
01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:38,000
Gabbiadini.

1953
01:36:38,000 --> 01:36:39,000
Gabbiadini.

1954
01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:44,000
To be fair, he had a really good stint at Southampton.

1955
01:36:44,000 --> 01:36:48,000
I don't know if it was League Cup or FA Cup final.

1956
01:36:48,000 --> 01:36:50,000
And they lost three-nil.

1957
01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:54,000
But he was really good.

1958
01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:57,000
So I think that's Atalanta.

1959
01:36:57,000 --> 01:37:00,000
I don't think there's been many more rumours.

1960
01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:02,000
Muriel, what about Muriel?

1961
01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:03,000
Muriel is leaving.

1962
01:37:03,000 --> 01:37:05,000
Okay, there we go.

1963
01:37:05,000 --> 01:37:09,000
The question is, is he staying in Italy or is he going to Spain?

1964
01:37:09,000 --> 01:37:11,000
It looks like he's going to Spain, most likely.

1965
01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:13,000
And where in Spain? Like a Sevilla kind of thing?

1966
01:37:13,000 --> 01:37:14,000
Villarreal.

1967
01:37:14,000 --> 01:37:16,000
Let's see.

1968
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:17,000
In the meantime, I'll...

1969
01:37:17,000 --> 01:37:20,000
I think actually Sevilla, man. I think I saw something.

1970
01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:23,000
He was at Sevilla before, so it makes sense.

1971
01:37:23,000 --> 01:37:28,000
He's an option for Roma's attack, latest news.

1972
01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:30,000
There you go, Serri, a spotlight for your latest news.

1973
01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:34,000
I would definitely pay 200 credits for him there.

1974
01:37:34,000 --> 01:37:35,000
At Roma?

1975
01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:37,000
This guy is yours.

1976
01:37:37,000 --> 01:37:38,000
This guy is going to have a nap.

1977
01:37:38,000 --> 01:37:40,000
I'm tired, man.

1978
01:37:40,000 --> 01:37:42,000
You want to stop?

1979
01:37:42,000 --> 01:37:45,000
No, as if. We're pressing on, man. We're no pussies.

1980
01:37:45,000 --> 01:37:47,000
Shall we move on to Torino?

1981
01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:48,000
Let's do it.

1982
01:37:48,000 --> 01:37:50,000
Or Muntov starts snoring at the tables.

1983
01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:53,000
I've yawned once, you fucking babies.

1984
01:37:53,000 --> 01:37:57,000
You had all this information, you haven't opened it for once.

1985
01:37:57,000 --> 01:37:59,000
I forgot I had it.

1986
01:37:59,000 --> 01:38:01,000
As Jake just fucked up.

1987
01:38:01,000 --> 01:38:06,000
He just opened a massive PDF that's 34 pages long of information.

1988
01:38:06,000 --> 01:38:11,000
I spent three days preparing this word document over here.

1989
01:38:11,000 --> 01:38:12,000
And you've not opened it.

1990
01:38:12,000 --> 01:38:13,000
And I haven't opened it.

1991
01:38:13,000 --> 01:38:14,000
He's not opened it once.

1992
01:38:14,000 --> 01:38:16,000
But man, you've been doing it for the same show.

1993
01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:17,000
I think you have the same one, though.

1994
01:38:17,000 --> 01:38:20,000
Yes, I have the same. That's what I've been working on.

1995
01:38:20,000 --> 01:38:23,000
I have the first to clap.

1996
01:38:23,000 --> 01:38:25,000
Try not to clap too much.

1997
01:38:25,000 --> 01:38:26,000
I like clapping.

1998
01:38:26,000 --> 01:38:28,000
Headphones.

1999
01:38:28,000 --> 01:38:29,000
What's this?

2000
01:38:29,000 --> 01:38:34,000
The guy at the gym just dropped the bench press and he's fucking dying right now.

2001
01:38:34,000 --> 01:38:35,000
You're welcome.

2002
01:38:35,000 --> 01:38:36,000
Okay, Torino.

2003
01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:37,000
There we go.

2004
01:38:37,000 --> 01:38:39,000
Bellotti leaving free. Who's he going to?

2005
01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:41,000
Monaco.

2006
01:38:41,000 --> 01:38:44,000
Monaco?

2007
01:38:44,000 --> 01:38:46,000
Yeah, I think Monaco. I think we'll go to Monaco.

2008
01:38:46,000 --> 01:38:49,000
Are Monaco losing a striker as well?

2009
01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:51,000
I heard Benny and Mike going to the wolf.

2010
01:38:51,000 --> 01:38:53,000
I know that they're going hard on him, though.

2011
01:38:53,000 --> 01:38:55,000
And he seems keen on the idea.

2012
01:38:55,000 --> 01:38:58,000
He seems to be waiting for Milan, man.

2013
01:38:58,000 --> 01:39:00,000
That's the kind of thing he gives.

2014
01:39:00,000 --> 01:39:03,000
He said it multiple times, very vocal about his love for Milan.

2015
01:39:03,000 --> 01:39:08,000
I think he's waiting for the second life to realize that they don't actually need another striker.

2016
01:39:08,000 --> 01:39:10,000
Or if they do, Bellotti is in the profile.

2017
01:39:10,000 --> 01:39:12,000
Which, to be honest, I might argue that he is.

2018
01:39:12,000 --> 01:39:15,000
Low fees, another striker.

2019
01:39:15,000 --> 01:39:19,000
It might be good. He might be the one that's the most consistent in game time.

2020
01:39:19,000 --> 01:39:20,000
He's the least injured.

2021
01:39:20,000 --> 01:39:21,000
You know who he is?

2022
01:39:21,000 --> 01:39:22,000
He's been prone. Historically, last season's different.

2023
01:39:22,000 --> 01:39:26,000
You know who we didn't talk about for Milan? Suarez.

2024
01:39:26,000 --> 01:39:28,000
That's off.

2025
01:39:28,000 --> 01:39:31,000
Okay, so back to Bellotti.

2026
01:39:31,000 --> 01:39:33,000
Last season, he was a bit more injured.

2027
01:39:33,000 --> 01:39:35,000
Yeah, and last season he seems out of sorts.

2028
01:39:35,000 --> 01:39:37,000
But those injuries are defunct.

2029
01:39:37,000 --> 01:39:40,000
And I think even the team is changing.

2030
01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:42,000
I didn't feel a part of it, maybe, because he knew he was leaving.

2031
01:39:42,000 --> 01:39:45,000
Exactly. He came back to a different side.

2032
01:39:45,000 --> 01:39:47,000
It's as simple as that.

2033
01:39:47,000 --> 01:39:50,000
So I hope he stays in Italy, because he's literally...

2034
01:39:50,000 --> 01:39:53,000
If one thing is certain, he's good in Serie A.

2035
01:39:53,000 --> 01:39:55,000
So I'd like to keep him in the league.

2036
01:39:55,000 --> 01:39:57,000
And I'd take him at Milan, to be honest, man.

2037
01:39:57,000 --> 01:40:02,000
Even if he works off the bench, how many minutes is Lata going to stay realistically next year?

2038
01:40:02,000 --> 01:40:05,000
And Bellotti might be a good little coup on a free.

2039
01:40:05,000 --> 01:40:07,000
And you limit his wages a little bit.

2040
01:40:07,000 --> 01:40:08,000
You play the injury card.

2041
01:40:08,000 --> 01:40:12,000
Apparently West Ham and everything, as always, are in to things with Bellotti.

2042
01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:14,000
West Ham is everywhere.

2043
01:40:14,000 --> 01:40:17,000
Every striker, they're like, oh, he's good.

2044
01:40:17,000 --> 01:40:21,000
They're so desperate for a striker. I was never playing Mahal Antonio like a striker.

2045
01:40:21,000 --> 01:40:23,000
He was very, very good.

2046
01:40:23,000 --> 01:40:25,000
He's with a wide no...

2047
01:40:25,000 --> 01:40:27,000
He was insane wing back.

2048
01:40:27,000 --> 01:40:30,000
And they're chucking him there, so we'll see.

2049
01:40:30,000 --> 01:40:36,000
But for a while it seemed like Bellotti wasn't the only big player that Torino were willing to lose.

2050
01:40:36,000 --> 01:40:42,000
For a while it seemed like Bremer was close to Inter, and other teams were flirting with him as well.

2051
01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:50,000
But apparently he signed a contract extension with Torino up until 2024 back in February.

2052
01:40:50,000 --> 01:40:54,000
What do you think about him as a defender? I personally think he's one of the best in the league, man.

2053
01:40:54,000 --> 01:40:56,000
He is, man. He won MVP last season.

2054
01:40:56,000 --> 01:40:59,000
Oh, defender of the season.

2055
01:40:59,000 --> 01:41:02,000
I think he's class, but he will probably...

2056
01:41:02,000 --> 01:41:06,000
I think now is the time for him to make the move.

2057
01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:10,000
And with so many big teams interested in Inter, one of the...

2058
01:41:10,000 --> 01:41:14,000
I think him as the replacement for Scorniart is brilliant business.

2059
01:41:14,000 --> 01:41:21,000
For Inter and for him, because he's gone aside, he's really young, and he's brilliant.

2060
01:41:21,000 --> 01:41:22,000
He's just a good player.

2061
01:41:22,000 --> 01:41:25,000
But Inter need to commit, man. They haven't committed yet to him.

2062
01:41:25,000 --> 01:41:29,000
Which is why he probably signed the extension with them in the first place.

2063
01:41:29,000 --> 01:41:31,000
But I read...

2064
01:41:31,000 --> 01:41:35,000
I think it's more fun to have Torino actually getting money than him.

2065
01:41:35,000 --> 01:41:40,000
I read that he already... like, personal terms with Inter is not a problem.

2066
01:41:40,000 --> 01:41:44,000
I think it could be that they already agreed something.

2067
01:41:44,000 --> 01:41:51,000
But I'm sure... and he's been gagging for Inter as well. He's been praying for them.

2068
01:41:51,000 --> 01:41:52,000
It's been common for a while.

2069
01:41:52,000 --> 01:41:56,000
Apparently there was a deal done for six months between the two clubs.

2070
01:41:56,000 --> 01:42:00,000
And then it just never went to fruition. They offered him a new contract.

2071
01:42:00,000 --> 01:42:03,000
Did you see the message that was hung by the fans?

2072
01:42:03,000 --> 01:42:05,000
I saw that, man.

2073
01:42:05,000 --> 01:42:09,000
Short arms, your surrender is at the gates.

2074
01:42:09,000 --> 01:42:10,000
Sorry about the voice.

2075
01:42:10,000 --> 01:42:12,000
Cairo, go away.

2076
01:42:12,000 --> 01:42:13,000
Wow.

2077
01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:16,000
Yeah, about the president. They feel like he isn't investing enough.

2078
01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:19,000
And the thing is, Juric, you can't help but feel bad for him.

2079
01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:20,000
Short time?

2080
01:42:20,000 --> 01:42:23,000
They're going to give him a T-Rex, basically.

2081
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:27,000
Exactly. Short, Torino. Yeah, Torino fan.

2082
01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:31,000
And the thing is, Juric had the same thing at Verona where they weren't willing to invest

2083
01:42:31,000 --> 01:42:33,000
and wanted to cut their costs.

2084
01:42:33,000 --> 01:42:35,000
And it's the same thing now with Torino, it seems to be.

2085
01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:37,000
They're losing their two best players.

2086
01:42:37,000 --> 01:42:39,000
And Mandrake as well.

2087
01:42:39,000 --> 01:42:41,000
And Pobega.

2088
01:42:41,000 --> 01:42:46,000
And that happened with Dimarco, with Juric, where he loved the player and didn't redeem him.

2089
01:42:46,000 --> 01:42:51,000
It seems like Torino have had some movement, but really, really nothing to write home about.

2090
01:42:51,000 --> 01:42:56,000
They got some guy from Serie C, from Catanzaro. His name is Baieie.

2091
01:42:56,000 --> 01:42:58,000
Brian Baieie.

2092
01:42:58,000 --> 01:43:02,000
He's a 22-year-old right-foot fielder. He'll be a vice for Shingo.

2093
01:43:02,000 --> 01:43:05,000
That is the plan that they have for him.

2094
01:43:05,000 --> 01:43:10,000
Again, like you said, well, Juric seems like he's being held by the club once again,

2095
01:43:10,000 --> 01:43:13,000
just like he was at Verona.

2096
01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:18,000
And don't forget, Torino also lost Brekalo and Pobega.

2097
01:43:18,000 --> 01:43:24,000
So they're struggling a little bit in the market there, but we'll see what happens with them.

2098
01:43:24,000 --> 01:43:27,000
Next up, Sassuolo, Mintov's favourite team.

2099
01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:29,000
What can you tell us, Minto?

2100
01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:33,000
There's some pretty good news, I'd say.

2101
01:43:33,000 --> 01:43:39,000
So far, that means that the main players have stayed.

2102
01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:45,000
And there's still half a transfer under the goal, so things could change.

2103
01:43:45,000 --> 01:43:52,000
And a top man can leave. I do assume that Skamaka will end up leaving.

2104
01:43:52,000 --> 01:44:00,000
I mean, the club would like to keep him, but I think that probably there'll be someone who'll snatch him up at the end for around 14 million.

2105
01:44:00,000 --> 01:44:05,000
So it's why they made some moves in the market.

2106
01:44:05,000 --> 01:44:15,000
It's why they brought in Alvarez from Pinerol and also Christian Thorstvedt, Norwegian from Geng.

2107
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:19,000
Both of them are strikers, attacking players.

2108
01:44:19,000 --> 01:44:24,000
Alvarez is more of a number nine, or that seems to be the role.

2109
01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:30,000
And then Thorstvedt is more like an attacking midfielder.

2110
01:44:30,000 --> 01:44:38,000
I think there's also the potential to play him as a centre forward, but I think the natural role is as an attacking midfielder.

2111
01:44:38,000 --> 01:44:43,000
I don't know whether those signings are something to find for the future.

2112
01:44:43,000 --> 01:44:49,000
So for example, if Skamaka leaves, these have been brought in as the direct replacements are not. It remains to be seen.

2113
01:44:49,000 --> 01:44:58,000
If not, then I'd say they have a very good line-up up front with regards to first and second teams,

2114
01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:02,000
because they have a nice number of players to change from game to game.

2115
01:45:02,000 --> 01:45:05,000
And I think that was something that Sassuola suffered a lot from last year.

2116
01:45:05,000 --> 01:45:07,000
Is Máxim López staying?

2117
01:45:07,000 --> 01:45:10,000
Máxim López is staying so far. He has not accepted Roma yet.

2118
01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:19,000
These two moves, the reason I have hope that they'll work out is because this is seeming to be Sassuola's style.

2119
01:45:19,000 --> 01:45:23,000
They get young talent and then sometimes they offload them to the bigger teams.

2120
01:45:23,000 --> 01:45:27,000
This season we're seeing it a bit different. They haven't really offloaded any to the bigger teams yet,

2121
01:45:27,000 --> 01:45:31,000
but they're very good at scouting talent, bringing them on board, developing them.

2122
01:45:31,000 --> 01:45:36,000
And then, be it they move on, or they stay there, like Baraydi for example.

2123
01:45:36,000 --> 01:45:45,000
Otherwise, like we touched up on, Frattese was wanted by Roma, and that was very advanced, but it never came to fruition.

2124
01:45:45,000 --> 01:45:48,000
Kirikes is off the cremoneses.

2125
01:45:48,000 --> 01:45:51,000
Lucky for them, they're going straight back down.

2126
01:45:51,000 --> 01:45:58,000
And apparently you guys really raid Bayrami, and you're not willing to let him go.

2127
01:45:58,000 --> 01:46:09,000
This was meant to happen even in January, or they tried to get him in January, but it didn't go through.

2128
01:46:09,000 --> 01:46:11,000
And now they really want him again.

2129
01:46:11,000 --> 01:46:16,000
I think this is a player that they need, kind of.

2130
01:46:16,000 --> 01:46:23,000
They need someone in the middle sometimes to create a bit more chances, because usually chances do come from Baraydi.

2131
01:46:23,000 --> 01:46:30,000
Or towards the end of the year, there was Raspadoori and also Traora giving in that contribution.

2132
01:46:30,000 --> 01:46:33,000
But most of the work did come from Baraydi.

2133
01:46:33,000 --> 01:46:40,000
So I think that they do need something in the middle to give a bit of a spark,

2134
01:46:40,000 --> 01:46:47,000
because it often was a position that was not neglected, but it always needed a bit of improvement.

2135
01:46:47,000 --> 01:46:49,000
That's true.

2136
01:46:49,000 --> 01:46:54,000
They've kept most of their team.

2137
01:46:54,000 --> 01:46:57,000
They've thinned out a few of the ranks.

2138
01:46:57,000 --> 01:47:02,000
Manuel Lerle became a coach for the club, which is a nice thing.

2139
01:47:02,000 --> 01:47:04,000
I think it's a way to keep him there.

2140
01:47:04,000 --> 01:47:10,000
He's a legend for the club, and it's nice to have him there and then actually keep coaching the squad.

2141
01:47:10,000 --> 01:47:12,000
So he's kind of not leaving as such.

2142
01:47:12,000 --> 01:47:17,000
And his role perhaps might be even more important now to nurture new talent.

2143
01:47:17,000 --> 01:47:21,000
True, and to show them what it really means to play for Sassuolo.

2144
01:47:21,000 --> 01:47:26,000
Perhaps already, to give some kind of history to the club as well.

2145
01:47:26,000 --> 01:47:32,000
Maybe we're seeing Sassuolo being a bit more optimistic, keeping their players and shooting for the stars.

2146
01:47:32,000 --> 01:47:42,000
I think the season, unless things happen, they sell the front three, and then they have Traor, Torsvedt and Alvarez.

2147
01:47:42,000 --> 01:47:45,000
Do you believe in Dionisi?

2148
01:47:45,000 --> 01:47:48,000
He seems quite dedicated.

2149
01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:51,000
And there have been many times where his tactics did pay off.

2150
01:47:51,000 --> 01:47:53,000
Against the big team.

2151
01:47:53,000 --> 01:47:59,000
I think there have been many times where his tactics were paying off, but I think the squad was just 11 players.

2152
01:47:59,000 --> 01:48:10,000
And then as soon as there were substitutions and so on, it felt like there was nothing off the bench to help get a goal, often more than not.

2153
01:48:10,000 --> 01:48:18,000
So now that that's changed, I think if the team stays as they are, maybe they have to sell one player, I don't know.

2154
01:48:18,000 --> 01:48:20,000
Maybe they have to sell Frattesi.

2155
01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:22,000
Juricic is being linked to Bologna?

2156
01:48:22,000 --> 01:48:24,000
Juricic I think is going.

2157
01:48:24,000 --> 01:48:28,000
I've been reading that he's no longer part of Dionisi's plans.

2158
01:48:28,000 --> 01:48:33,000
So he's probably gone.

2159
01:48:33,000 --> 01:48:36,000
And there was also links of Traor as well.

2160
01:48:36,000 --> 01:48:39,000
There's a cash grab somewhere there.

2161
01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:40,000
There is, yeah.

2162
01:48:40,000 --> 01:48:43,000
This is the world of the day.

2163
01:48:43,000 --> 01:48:46,000
But overall so far it looks optimistic.

2164
01:48:46,000 --> 01:48:49,000
Maybe in a month's time it totally changes.

2165
01:48:49,000 --> 01:48:50,000
It's very likely.

2166
01:48:50,000 --> 01:48:58,000
I think realistically, I think Skamaka leaves and Alvarez becomes the natural number nine and the first choice, Panta.

2167
01:48:58,000 --> 01:49:00,000
And I don't think that's a terrible thing.

2168
01:49:00,000 --> 01:49:05,000
Because although Skamaka was great, he did have, he was very sparky.

2169
01:49:05,000 --> 01:49:09,000
He'd score a couple of goals and he'd go quite a bit and score another couple.

2170
01:49:09,000 --> 01:49:10,000
That's true.

2171
01:49:10,000 --> 01:49:16,000
Maybe it's time to get a new wave of talent and hopefully over a longer term as well because Skamaka really wasn't there a while.

2172
01:49:16,000 --> 01:49:17,000
No, he wasn't.

2173
01:49:17,000 --> 01:49:22,000
So those have been the latest updates on the top 11 in Serie A.

2174
01:49:22,000 --> 01:49:26,000
There are a few more teams remaining, of course, with Dineza, Bologna and Pulis Amdori.

2175
01:49:26,000 --> 01:49:31,000
And those guys, it's been a little bit quieter there apart from Monza, who of course have confirmed.

2176
01:49:31,000 --> 01:49:36,000
Craniore, Anokia, Pessina, Sensi, they're making some moves over there.

2177
01:49:36,000 --> 01:49:38,000
They're looking for Petanio, Kutroni.

2178
01:49:38,000 --> 01:49:44,000
We'll update you on the lower tier guys the second the transfer window is over and everything has been finalized.

2179
01:49:44,000 --> 01:49:52,000
Because this is impossible to keep up and it's impossible to deliver a podcast of the full service.

2180
01:49:52,000 --> 01:49:53,000
It's kind of impossible.

2181
01:49:53,000 --> 01:49:57,000
Especially halfway through our transfer work and giving transfer updates.

2182
01:49:57,000 --> 01:50:00,000
But thank you very much to Santi and Mintov.

2183
01:50:00,000 --> 01:50:01,000
You are great as always.

2184
01:50:01,000 --> 01:50:03,000
We fucking love you.

2185
01:50:03,000 --> 01:50:06,000
Santi, you want to explain your situation a bit because it's hilarious.

2186
01:50:06,000 --> 01:50:15,000
So right now it's half past midnight and in two and a half hours I need to wake up for a flight.

2187
01:50:15,000 --> 01:50:20,000
So that's why, that's partially why we need to cut this joint.

2188
01:50:20,000 --> 01:50:22,000
It would be really karma.

2189
01:50:22,000 --> 01:50:25,000
You've been bitching about missing flights and today you miss your flight.

2190
01:50:25,000 --> 01:50:26,000
Oh my god.

2191
01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:28,000
Mintov missed four flights.

2192
01:50:28,000 --> 01:50:32,000
Hopefully since I'm being picked up it shouldn't be a problem.

2193
01:50:32,000 --> 01:50:34,000
They'll awaken me.

2194
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:35,000
They should.

2195
01:50:35,000 --> 01:50:39,000
Thank you very much to everyone for listening.

2196
01:50:39,000 --> 01:50:42,000
It's been Serious Spotlights with Mintov and Santi.

2197
01:50:42,000 --> 01:50:44,000
We'll see you guys next time.

2198
01:50:44,000 --> 01:50:49,000
Don't forget to follow us on Instagram and Twitter and TikTok as well.

2199
01:50:49,000 --> 01:50:54,000

2200
01:50:54,000 --> 01:50:58,000
Thank you and we love you.
