1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,600
Pedro, Pedro, still going and going and twisted in Pedro, it's a beauty from the Spaniards.

2
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:19,680
Hello and welcome back to Serie A Spotlight, this is season 2 episode 24 and we're your hosts Matt

3
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:25,280
and Jake ready to take you through all the action that happened on matchday 21 in Serie A.

4
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:33,440
Once again excuse my voice guys, I am recovering from an illness yet again. I'm like Pato dude

5
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:39,200
at this point. Our goal of the week is Pedro's strike on the turn versus Hellas Verona, the

6
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:43,200
technique on that strike was incredible, I can't believe he got that much power into it man, that

7
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:49,200
was what a goal. His back towards goal and he still managed to place the strike way better than most

8
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:55,200
players can man, brilliant experience. Rolling back the bar sails, he's had such a long career,

9
00:00:55,200 --> 00:01:00,640
he was deemed old when he joined Chelsea, yeah that was a while back. And he was good at Chelsea,

10
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,880
he found some success over there as well, he had good performances and sometimes was even in the

11
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:10,400
starting 11, I think most of the time. With that much skill will always be good. Yeah and then you

12
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:16,080
think oh he's just coming to Serie A to retire and he's had what like a banging three years at Lazio.

13
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:23,280
Mad influential. Mad influential. Serie A spotlight slips, once again we have been defeated

14
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:29,440
by the system, Sassuolo beat Atalanta and there was only one goal in the derby de la Madonnina so

15
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:37,360
just straight up wrong move on like. Yeah on to the next. We're on a big fat zero now bro,

16
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:43,600

24
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:24,960
so your insight would always be appreciated and we encourage it. Before we get into the games

25
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:30,400
individually obviously here I am once again to read out the entire list to you. So in the derby

26
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:37,360
de la Madonnina it was Inter 1 Milan 0, a goal from the forehead of Lautaro Martinez or

27
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:44,320
Lautaro's forehead, one of them we'll see. It was a massive debate as to which one we should

28
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:50,640
use as our podcast title. I hope we made the right choice. I really hope that we did and let us guys

29
00:02:50,640 --> 00:02:58,400
know if you agree or disagree. Second game Spezia 0 Napoli 3 Guevara Ozymen party,

30
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:06,640
Roma against Empoli 2-0 to Roma once again, Tammy Abraham is back, Verona 1 Lazio 1, Verona keep

31
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:13,120
fucking grinding, Sassuolo 1 Atalanta 0 and early red card for Mela totally shifted the game over

32
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:19,760
there, Juve 3 Salernitana 0 Vlahovic back and contributing to every single goal over there,

33
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:27,680
Fiorentina 1 Bologna 2 Mottasmen the beasts, Torino 1 Udinese 0, Torino are one of the most

34
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:35,520
unpredictable teams in the league and Udinese are currently one of the worst, Monza 2 Sampdoria 2

35
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:42,160
late equalizer there by Monza and Cremonaese 0 Lecce 2, Cremonaese started really good and then

36
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:49,200
Lecce continued really good. So that's pretty much the rundown. What stood out for you? Obviously

37
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:54,400
there was the derby this week and so that took off. There were two derbies. There were of course the

38
00:03:54,400 --> 00:04:01,680
derby de la Penina. The Fiorentina Bologna game was a derby and that was my game of the week. I

39
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:08,960
think the top three were that one, Fiorentina Bologna, Monza Sampdoria was definitely was a

40
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:15,120
classic over there and I think Sassuolo Atalanta would be top three because you're wondering what's

41
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:20,640
going to happen here. Can they do it? And a great goal by Lauriente as well in that game, a candidate

42
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:26,480
for our goal of the week and yeah just an early red card changing everything seeing Sassuolo

43
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:32,000
adapt so well to that, seeing Atalanta struggle after that it was very very exciting. A very

44
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:36,960
poor derby de la Madonnina when it comes to quality. Inter demonstrating much more quality

45
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:41,680
than Milan did. We'll get into this one very shortly. I don't think it's appropriate to start

46
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:48,480
discussing it now. Yeah I have a lot to say about that. Let's just jump straight into it.

47
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:55,440
The derby de la Madonnina it was Inter 1 Milan 0. The previous encounter was a victory for Milan as

48
00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:01,520
they won 3-2. This time obviously Milan did have a couple of injuries to their name so Milan lined up

49
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:08,080
in a very changed formation. It was a 3-5-2 being utilized by Pioli here. Tatarasano in goal and the

50
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:13,760
back line of Kalulu, Kier and Gabia. Calabria out in the right wingback position with Theo Hernandez

51
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:20,960
on the left side. Tonali, Kronich and Messias as a medzala in that three-man midfield. Giroud up top

52
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:29,440
and alongside Origi rather than Leão. For Inter on the other hand it was also a 3-5-2 formation.

53
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:35,360
Onana in goal, a back line of Bastoni, Acerbi and Skriniar. Di Marco out on the left, Darmian out on

54
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:41,040
the right, Mkhitaryan, Chalanoglu and Barela in the middle with Zerko and Martinez up front. Inter with a

55
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:46,960
very tried and tested 3-5-2 over there. Milan with a totally new 3-5-2 that is just levels below

56
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:55,440
that. So the scoring was opened in the 34th minute by Lautaro Martinez. Unfortunately it was

57
00:05:55,440 --> 00:06:00,720
unassisted by Hakan Chalanoglu that shushed the Milan fans after that. The Turkish scorer found

58
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:06,720
the head of the poorly marked Lautaro Martinez who headed in pasta Tatarasano with his forehead.

59
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:12,480
The header took a slight deflection off of Kier but still clearly, very clearly, Lautaro's goal.

60
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:18,000
Later on a couple things changed. Milan looked a bit brighter but then in the 89th minute,

61
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:23,600
Lautaro's second goal was cancelled due to his forehead being offside but Inter still walked away

62
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:29,280
with a comfortable three points. Very brief over there naturally because of just the one goal but

63
00:06:29,280 --> 00:06:37,600
we have a lot to say I think. Quite a lot to say, particularly the way this game started. So coming

64
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:44,160
into the game you saw the 3-5-2 formation announced. What were your original thoughts on this?

65
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:51,600
I was shook because when Piole said Milan were going to try something new I was expecting to see

66
00:06:51,600 --> 00:07:00,240
a 4-3-2-1, something that at least Milan had done before. But to opt for a 3-5-2 against Inter and in

67
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:05,920
doing that you're dropping key personnel as you're entering the derby de la Madonnina away to Inter.

68
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:11,440
You look on the other side, Inter have the same system set up just with players that have been

69
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:17,840
doing it for years and years and years under Conte and Allegri and I think for that reason it was an

70
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:24,880
absolute mismatch. Milan obviously without Tomori, without Manon, without Ben Nasser, without Léaou,

71
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,640
just a nightmare really for any Milan fan seeing that line up.

72
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:34,240
Yeah it was, I mean Milan and Piole have been flirting with the idea of a three at the back

73
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:41,040
system for a while now because it suits the skill set of Theo Hernandez and Salah Makers for example,

74
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:46,880
quite a few players have played in this system before. But you look at the fact that Milan's

75
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,720
best defender at the moment is injured and the defense is quite thin and you're going with a

76
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,880
three at the back formation and saying that you're going to stick to it for a while. It's a bit weird

77
00:07:54,880 --> 00:08:00,240
now besides Calou, Luquier and Gabia there's only Malik Chao as the only replacement over there.

78
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:01,040
You're fucking right.

79
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:06,480
You're fucking right. So it's very thin. Calabria at the moment doesn't seem fit enough to start as

80
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:11,920
the red wingback. I think Salah Makers looked way better when he came on, more lively and more

81
00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:16,720
comfortable in that role. I think he's more naturally a wingback Salah Makers than Calabria.

82
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:23,040
Messias in the midfield role is something that he used to do at Crotone so it's not something new

83
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:28,400
for him but he did not have much impact in this game probably because he's not used to playing

84
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,640
the system or hasn't played the system in a while with these teammates set up in this manner.

85
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:39,440
Origi barely touched the ball. Giroud had that miss right. It was terrible at the end.

86
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:45,680
It just look, this does have promise and it is a positive that Milan managed a 1-0 loss and actually

87
00:08:45,680 --> 00:08:50,880
grew into the game and reacted through Piolli's in-game management which was heavily criticized

88
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:54,480
coming into it. But it always sucks losing a derby right?

89
00:08:54,480 --> 00:09:00,000
Yeah. I think we could keep going on about the lineup and why it was set up the way it was set

90
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:06,080
up. But I think one thing we discussed was the best case scenario in Milan starting in this

91
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:13,440
formation with this set up was they'll be very defensive at the start, not concede in the first

92
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:19,440
half and just maintain that first half. Second half you grow into the game and you fucking

93
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:24,720
go for their throats. You bring on Liao, you bring on all these key pieces and you just attack, attack,

94
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:30,640
attack. Raheem Diaz is another one that obviously was left out with this set up and I think that's

95
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:35,280
what Piolli wanted to do and in fact we did see Milan grow into the game later on. It's just they

96
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:42,720
weren't effective when they were attacking. When you said this was the lowest quality derby that

97
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,560
Madonina you've seen in a while I absolutely agree because it's not like Inter weren't fucking up.

98
00:09:46,560 --> 00:09:50,800
It's not like Inter were perfect. The mistakes in the second half they almost gave Milan the game.

99
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:56,240
Yeah but then you saw because Milan were pressing in the second half but they were pressing

100
00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:00,880
intelligently not over pressing. In the first half there was one point where Milan were finally

101
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:06,880
pressing and I'm like oh look at this, look at the press, look at the press and suddenly Inter

102
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:13,440
just start tiki-takaing it with their back heels. It started with Barell juggling the ball.

103
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:18,960
Yes yes and then someone I believe got a yellow card and they came down. I think it was Kalulu,

104
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:24,000
he just grabbed Lautaro and took him to the ground. Of course they would have scored. The

105
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:30,560
girls were watching that and the second Barella did that and Inter went on that crazy counter

106
00:10:30,560 --> 00:10:42,320
attack they were like wow Inter play really well. I'm like shut up. I think I'll support Inter now.

107
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:48,080
No you don't, stop it. Another funny one, your girlfriend's hilarious bro. She's just sad there

108
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:53,200
cross-legged swaying her head. Chala no glu, we love and respect you.

109
00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:01,920
She keeps saying if you were to sit down with Hakan you'll understand him and you'll forgive

110
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:06,800
him like. She thinks he has kind eyes but now we've pointed out the upside down ears

111
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:14,960
to her. She's not sure how she feels about him. Their expression change when they notice that his

112
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:22,720
ears are upside down. It's like the Serie A trophy upside down because they'll never win a Serie A

113
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:33,600
trophy. But yes we're laughing a bit too much. This was Lautaro Martinez's seventh goal against

114
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:40,240
Milan in all competitions. There was the nightmare Cardi before and there have been a few

115
00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:45,680
nightmares on both sides but the ultimate I believe derby king was Shevchenko who has a record goal

116
00:11:45,680 --> 00:11:54,240
scored in the derby. Alfon said this was the 178th Milan derby in Serie A. Inter have 168 and Milan

117
00:11:54,240 --> 00:12:02,240
have 154 of them. That's not nice to hear as a Milan fan I'm not gonna lie but I think in

118
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:10,080
recent history, recent history being the last decade, Inter have been the much better side in

119
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:19,360
Milan. I think both clubs faced their banter eras and they both faced their glory days equally I

120
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:25,760
would say but I think throughout that Inter would typically be a slight level above Milan. I think

121
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:30,960
this is one of the first times where if you see Milan starting 11 fully fit against Inter starting

122
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:37,920
11 fully fit both on top form it'll be tight. I know Inter aren't saying I'm not disrespecting

123
00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:42,960
them but I think Milan are that good that when they're both on top form I think Milan can get it

124
00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:51,200
done man. I'm not sure I agree personnel wise maybe you know the way they play maybe stylistically.

125
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:57,280
I'm saying head if we were to watch them right now head to head play both teams on their on their

126
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:02,640
top form. On top form yes okay okay. Personnel Inter are well rounded. Yes yes personnel I would

127
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:08,960
say they have the edge but when it comes to it's through head to head Milan have proven to be a

128
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:15,360
thorn in the side of Inter. Yeah. Yeah another interesting thing is that Inter can look quite

129
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:20,560
clumsy at the back sometimes without Brosevic let's just say that without Brosevic. Yeah.

130
00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:26,880
But you look at the stat here no side has conceded fewer home goals than Inter and Serie A this season

131
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:34,320
five level with Roma. Wow man. Yeah so it's not been going too swimmingly for Inter but they can

132
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:39,440
risk their laurels that defensively at home they're in their solid. Yeah and you see that Milan

133
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:48,160
conceded five at home against Oswaldo. Yeah. And on the contrary Milan conceded 18 goals in January

134
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:54,240
2023. The most they have ever conceded in a single month of a year in their history in all

135
00:13:54,240 --> 00:14:03,520
competitions since 1929 1930. Yeah and if you look at the way that Milan defends set pieces you'll

136
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:09,360
understand why immediately the way that Inter lined up to attack Milan this game was to take

137
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:15,040
set pieces like even corners and just shoot. Yeah. Cialnoglu was literally shooting from corners while

138
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:19,840
the Inter attackers and defenders were trying to block Tatarosan with his vision. Exactly.

139
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:25,200
So it's it was a bombardment over there almost disrespectful. Tatar actually pulled out a good

140
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:30,240
performance. He didn't leave his line when he should have but he made some amazing reaction you

141
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:34,800
said. I think from a shot stopper perspective Tatar couldn't have been much better than he was

142
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:39,920
in this game he had a good performance he had a great save on Lautaro in the opening moments of

143
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:44,880
the match. I think that could have easily been a goal he got down super super well.

144
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:52,240
Yes perhaps he still isn't the commander that every team needs it's a very important quality

145
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:57,760
and a goalkeeper one of the most important qualities a keeper can have. So for that reason

146
00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:03,360
obviously Manon Woodston would still be nice. Yes no of course and he's just a leader the fact

147
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:09,440
that he's a leader. Exactly. Yeah Milan did not look hot coming into this at all the first half

148
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:15,600
things were dire Milan had like 25 percent ball position zero shots on target. I'm not sure did

149
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:20,640
that Brahim shot where he shot and I think you made a joke that whenever he shoots you hear

150
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:29,760
it was off target and the keeper is caught. Yeah Brahim has a kid's shot is my point and I don't

151
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:33,840
think I've ever seen him hammer in except for the one against Juve but that was more curling.

152
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:39,440
I think when you look at Milan's first half performance I think they so they barely had

153
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:46,800
the ball obviously 25 percent ball possession and then just every time the ball went to Tonali

154
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:53,680
he was losing it. Yeah he was fucking it up every time it went to Tonali Tonali messed up in in one

155
00:15:53,680 --> 00:16:01,920
way or another obviously a great professional for Milan a very talented player as well as a

156
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:08,080
leader in his young age it's a dream for him to play for MIA he loves the club. He hasn't been hot

157
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:13,200
in the last couple of games and I think this was his worst performance yet one of his worst in a

158
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:18,480
Milan shirt but obviously the the man is struggling just as much as the team is struggling. No for

159
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:23,360
sure bro he looked reckless that's what it is like he would go for a flick on play the pass it's

160
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:28,240
almost like muscle memory like he would think that a teammate would be there and he'd often

161
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:32,720
pass to where Ibrahim should be in the 4-2-3-1 that's not how we're playing so the pass just

162
00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:37,680
goes to no one like with the long balls over the top the header when he had space and time to take

163
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:43,680
it down he looked reckless Calabria looked unfit Theo looked unbothered Calula looked scared it's

164
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:49,120
a whole team very scared. Calula looked scared. I think that's the the main that the two that I

165
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:56,160
noticed where the three actually sorry there was Theo there was Tonali and actually so many

166
00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:01,280
man there was Giroud as well but Calulu had a bit of a mare as well so he was alongside

167
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:09,280
Gabia and Keir. Gabia who for his young age I don't know how he moved so slow as a defender

168
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:16,080
and Keir who obviously is an older player now who's recovering recovering from ACL surgery and he's

169
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:22,400
barely got 70 minutes in him and it was up to Calula to provide the pace and

170
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:27,440
I guess not control because Keir will be controlling but he has a big part to play

171
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:33,280
as the starter the only starter in that defense and just every decision he made he seemed to do

172
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:37,520
it half-heartedly not half-heartedly because he doesn't give a shit but because he's scared

173
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:43,360
of putting in a 100% tackle and if you're not putting it exactly if you don't go all in with

174
00:17:43,360 --> 00:17:48,800
a tackle don't attempt to put in a tackle because you're just gonna get skipped past and and then

175
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:53,760
to put in a tackle because you're just gonna get skipped past and it just seemed like he was never

176
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:58,720
fully committed every time the ref whistled when he was in the box defending it's like he was having

177
00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:03,280
a fucking heart attack that he gave away a penalty it's like he's having PTSD and I'm sure that's

178
00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:10,800
the case and I'm sure it's confidence so I'm just hoping the environment and purely is helping Milan

179
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:17,360
recover from these traumatic experiences man. No for sure man you look like Calulu man as we discussed

180
00:18:17,360 --> 00:18:22,480
last episode he was fearless when on the come-up you know he didn't even think it was possible for

181
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,240
him to make a mistake and if he would he would recover from it immediately but now you know he's

182
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:31,520
made one he's made two he's made three and suddenly the confidence is is fading away it's not fun to

183
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:41,760
watch at all man no and these team this team this concoction of low confidence low morale

184
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:49,120
well all this basically resulted in the 100th pass of the match being completed in the 56th minute

185
00:18:49,120 --> 00:18:53,920
now at that point I think Inter had completed their 300th pass or something what was it so they were

186
00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:59,920
absolutely playing Milan out of the fucking field can you imagine the pressure on Piolli's shoulders

187
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:05,280
at the moment bro the newspapers have been absolutely reckless you see the likes of Arrigo Saki

188
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:09,760
saying that the fact that Piolli has changed to a three at the back formation means that he has gone

189
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:15,440
against his beliefs and he's transmitting the fact that he doesn't believe in his ideas to

190
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:21,440
to the players and to the fans and that he's fucked up all these years of hard work basically

191
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:26,960
you know and you see all these headlines about him I mean it's it's he's I disagree with Saki's

192
00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:33,520
comment because what Piolli's trying to do is create a new system that Milan can excel in I

193
00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:39,040
don't think it's not believing in his old ways it's right now his old ways aren't working so adapt

194
00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:47,360
or die essentially and he adapted he went against the grain did something very different but did

195
00:19:47,360 --> 00:19:53,280
something that he had been preparing behind the scenes I think I mean if I could offer just a

196
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:58,560
word of advice to Piolli is no matter what just keep your head that's what you have to do right

197
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:04,880
now because the media is making noise everything is making noise I'm sure there's noise inside his

198
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:12,640
head as well just keep your head keep calm this team has done it before and it's not like it's

199
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:19,520
not like this result was worse than what we've seen in the past seven games you know you know

200
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:25,440
Milan conceded one goal they lost by one in the derby de la madonna a tough game against an

201
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:30,800
inter side who are doing okay I mean you know they had they had one slip up recently but they're

202
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:36,960
doing all right other than that and you look at a one nil loss when at the end had Giroud done what

203
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:42,320
coach Weezer told me to do when I was nine years old it would have ended one one for the love of

204
00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:47,600
god right control with your right shoot with your left all right control to your left shoot with

205
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:51,440
your right I don't know why this guy's trying to take it on the outside man especially when the

206
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:56,640
defender's on his outside like I would have made sense if he was on Giroud's right the defender

207
00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:04,400
you know why why for the sauce for the swag he was thinking of a tv alien named alf

208
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:13,120
that was terrible that was both by me and by Giroud and you wouldn't want you know one of your

209
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:19,840
brightest players one of your leaders one of your top goal scorers one of your best players quite

210
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:26,240
frankly to get the ball in the final third and do there with Alamado Nina and do that bro I agree

211
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:33,200
with everything we said about purely and the 352 and and sure tried something new tried to adapt to

212
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:41,120
a sinking ship essentially try to rebuild something um imagine if he didn't change anything but

213
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:50,720
in that 352 player best players yes that's all I have to say that I agree with because dropping

214
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:58,240
um brahim for messias and not playing leo up top alongside giroud to me are two big question marks

215
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:02,880
the calabria choice as well at the moment like you're not seeing salim akar is over calabria

216
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:08,560
right now on a heartbeat in a 352 obviously so it's true but but then again bro I don't know

217
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:13,760
personally I find this weird that leo was benched against sasualo and benched against inter it might

218
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:18,960
be one of those situations where he's the the loss to arrive in the first leave of the pitch

219
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:24,320
something like that you know it might be maybe his attitude has become a bit laxidazical since

220
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:30,480
all the rumors and all the the media and leo reads the stuff since you see him on fucking twitter

221
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:36,400
liking all those weird things I never know how I never know what he means like what message is he

222
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:40,960
trying to portray by liking this once daniel maldini said he has no thoughts in his head bro

223
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:46,640
it's always vibe it's all vibe I think it's been since the world cup I don't know if it's the world

224
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:51,760
cup or it's just the overall team form that is affecting him negatively but he does seem like

225
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:57,360
he's taking quite a laxidazical approach because why would purely bench the guy who won you the

226
00:22:57,360 --> 00:23:02,480
reverse fixture I still think start because because he's that kind of guy bro he just

227
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:10,480
kicks the ball forward and if the ball lands in a good area he's true yeah and that's what you get

228
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:16,320
with him he's so incredibly direct he's one of the most direct players in the league I mentioned to

229
00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:24,720
me another Milan player that's direct name me one there aren't many exactly there was very direct

230
00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:29,280
yeah there was direct but he's obviously quite far from goal messias tries to be direct god bless him

231
00:23:31,120 --> 00:23:37,440
not even jirou is direct like no jirou is the opposite of direct he goes the other way exactly

232
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:42,800
flicks it back so you lose you lose him and you're like you're losing most of your attacking threat

233
00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:47,600
90 percent of your attacking threat is lost you drop layout against inter and listen to this

234
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:55,440
stat bro over here so Charles de K. Tellari and Adly Milan's two signings in the winter market

235
00:23:55,440 --> 00:24:02,320
in the summer market sorry were amongst the top 10 under 21 assist men in Europe's top five leagues

236
00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:08,160
last year okay and franks is the captain of Belgium's under 21 so these are three players

237
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:14,000
who have some kind of claim to fame right cdk adly with their sis and franks being the captain

238
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:21,120
of the under 21 team chow from what we've seen from is clearly a beast why are these four players

239
00:24:21,120 --> 00:24:27,120
these four clearly talented players not doing well bro in your opinion they're not even being

240
00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:34,560
considered I mean I think they're they're here at a very difficult time because there are players

241
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:41,200
above them that are there because they've had success with Milan and because they're better

242
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:47,280
suited for that system because they tried and tested in that system and victorious in that system

243
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:54,080
but these players are now failing now when these players are failing now they've been failing for

244
00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:58,960
what the past five matches yeah the past five matches and the ones who aren't failing are injured

245
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:07,200
so exactly exactly so then it's a judgment call from the coach is it I need these guys to be

246
00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:12,240
better and for them to be better I need to give them the right opportunities to be better so they

247
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:18,720
he just keeps them in or else it's the fuck it this isn't working this guy's performing like

248
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,960
shit I'm gonna bench him and that's gonna be a statement I make so everyone's gonna get their

249
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:29,280
shit together because everyone wants to play and everyone wants to win so that's what purely did

250
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:35,120
essentially with leo for example but it's not like he gave great opportunity to much of these other

251
00:25:35,120 --> 00:25:39,520
players and then by doing that because he was playing players that are out of form I think

252
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,520
last year Milan were the underdogs so there was less pressure on these players there were less

253
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:50,000
expectations now the players coming in these cdks these adleys these showers they're replacing

254
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:55,520
people who have won the league people are expecting them people expect milan to win games

255
00:25:55,520 --> 00:26:00,240
yeah people expect you not to make mistakes people expect a certain standard and you get to see that

256
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:04,080
cdk started with this confidence and after a couple of mistakes and a couple of headlines

257
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,880
absolutely the shadow of the player he was you watch highlights of him last year you barely

258
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:13,360
recognize him adley has barely been given time like that's simply probably because purely he's

259
00:26:13,360 --> 00:26:17,280
like I don't know if this guy is ready and I can't risk it I can't afford to lose any more points

260
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:22,800
like to me at least being wasted because he's not out on loan like yeah that's just there not being

261
00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:29,680
called to the champions league not even being your third choice attacking midfield and you even go

262
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:36,320
so far as to playing messias as a medzala no I mean clearly clearly we could I think we could go

263
00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:44,480
on about this all night yeah milan and um purely and and the way milan were set up in this game

264
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:52,400
and milan's recent failures obviously inter I mean not a tough task to beat milan at the moment but

265
00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:59,440
they got it done it wasn't a clean victory and sure it was domination because milan weren't set

266
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:07,600
up to have 50 ball possession in this match they were set up to stay back and reduce the harm that

267
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:14,400
could be done perhaps attempt to counter without your most direct fastest yeah counter with jurú

268
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:20,320
counter with jurú and origi up front but inter I mean they did show moments of brilliance in this

269
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:26,000
game I think lautarro is just a star for them we know he goes through his spells maybe he could be

270
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:31,040
a little bit inconsistent in long periods it's never like he's shitting a couple of games then

271
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:35,040
great in a couple of games he always has spells either he's scoring all the time he's never

272
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:41,600
scoring and right now he's fucking scoring that's like eight goals in seven games something like

273
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:48,080
that so he's obviously back for inter barela is just an unbelievable talent for him what a game

274
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:53,920
he had what a game barela had man it's true he was he was super um second best for them behind

275
00:27:53,920 --> 00:28:01,440
lautarro yeah inter maintained their position in second with 43 points 13 behind napoli and three

276
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:07,840
ahead of roma whilst milan dropped to sixth level on points with atalanta in 38 and eight points

277
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:13,520
ahead of torino who they face next one man does think that milan's luck is about to change

278
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:19,600
and his name is zlatan ibrahimovic oh yes he's back in the next game should be featuring off the

279
00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:25,840
bench the 41 year old playing his first game of this season very exciting exciting stuff exciting

280
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:32,080
stuff does he still have it that's the big question it's always a historical moment watching

281
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:38,400
zlatan play yes at this age agreed the next game we're going to be covering is specia nil napoli

282
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:45,360
three the previous encounter was a one nil victory for napoli thanks to a goal by raspadouri specia

283
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:51,360
lined up with dragovski and golden a 352 formation nikolao kaldara and ampadu were at the back with

284
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:57,840
reka on the left amian on the right agudelo sposada and burabi on the middle verde and the new

285
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:03,920
boy shomorodov played together up front shomorodov of course joining specia from roma i'm excited

286
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:09,840
seeing him get more playing time hey i like the guy i like him it was a 4-3-3 for napoli with

287
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:14,560
meret in gold di lorenzo on the right and mario rui on the left with minjay kim and rahmani at

288
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:19,600
the back the midfield three of angusalo botka and zelinski with lozano on the right and

289
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:27,600
gvaratskelia on the left and ozzy man up front he's that scared

290
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:36,640
it all started at the end of the first half when gvaratskelia scored the penalty despite dragovski

291
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:43,200
tracking the strike and the penalty was awarded after a ridiculous handball by reka caused by a

292
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:47,440
lack of coordination i'm not sure what was happening with reka over there it seemed like

293
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:52,320
his body glitched or his brain glitched one of them but his arm remained extended he seemed to

294
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:56,800
forget where the ball was and the ball just landed on his hand it happened so quickly for him the

295
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:02,320
second he put himself in that position the ball had made contact with his hand so quite unlucky

296
00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:08,160
but it just looks so silly and that obviously changed the game because specia were forced to

297
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:13,760
open up and then in the 68th minute ozzy man punished them um ampadu's wayward clearance

298
00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:20,560
looped into his own area and that was so reckless by ampadu incredibly ozzy man managed to outjump

299
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:25,360
dragovski dude he managed to outjump the goalkeeper who attempted to collect the clearance

300
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:31,600
he headed into the back of the net and he took off in celebration he actually broke the record of

301
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:37,760
christian ronaldo's jump against sampdoria but not tomori's record against juventus yeah that

302
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:42,800
remains the the highest leap for a goal i believe yeah this was a great like like even for ozzy man

303
00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:48,400
to be able to score in that situation um thankfully and luckily enough for him dragovski was making

304
00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:53,760
contact with a specia defender while he was rising um so it didn't allow him to stretch to his full

305
00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:58,800
potential but i think even then he would have had trouble man yeah and the 72nd minute it was

306
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:04,960
kaldara's turn to make a mistake he lost the ball to gvarts kelia and she's outside the area who

307
00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:10,080
squared the ball towards him and who slotted it into an empty net that was like it's like someone

308
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:15,600
paid kaldara to do that it's like he moved forward a bit really slowly then like passed it back

309
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:22,960
really slowly so weird uh-huh by the the next the next best thing for italian defenders no kaldara

310
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:29,680
yeah of course man so back then that was such a weird time there was a rugani on kaldara as if he

311
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:35,920
was just inflated by uve he's one of them bro yeah good point thank you but no no no no no no

312
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:40,480
have to give him his flowers he deserves them when he was at atalanta he was a beast before the

313
00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:44,960
injury fair enough that's and i believe he scored something ridiculous like nine goals in a season

314
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:50,400
which for a center back is crazy nine goals something like that bro for atalanta let's fact

315
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:56,000
check right now but that sounds crazy i'm pretty sure that was the right back no conti conti as

316
00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:02,320
well had scored a bunch but i believe kaldara had also scored a bunch for for atalanta

317
00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:13,360
i'm curious oh god i'm on the wrong website here we are right atalanta zero goals no no no here it

318
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:19,840
is atalanta seven goals the first loan the first i knew it because then he joined milan after milan

319
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:25,440
he went back to atalanta where he didn't score a single goal this of course was in 2017 kaldara

320
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:34,800
scored seven goals conti in his atalanta days in 2016 scored eight goals my god and 33 appearances

321
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:41,200
so yeah both of them were promising players back then yeah yeah i have very different scenarios

322
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:47,440
now one is due to injury and the other one just never both due to injury to be honest yeah even

323
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:55,680
kaldara no after winning two of their first three matches against nopoly in seia spezia have lost

324
00:32:55,680 --> 00:33:00,960
their last three games without scoring against them so safe to say nopoly have spezia figured out

325
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:07,520
there isn't much to figure out when you're that good yeah you know when you're on that much form

326
00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:11,040
like these guys aren't going to stop you you know they'll typically try to shut you out of the game

327
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:16,000
but it's so difficult with nopoly at the moment yeah and i think for a team with the capabilities

328
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:20,800
with the capabilities of spezia it is very difficult to come up with a system that stops

329
00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:26,000
nople even if you've got it nailed down it's very difficult it's looking harder and harder for

330
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:30,960
spezia especially with verona racking up points on a weekly yeah nopoly have picked up an average

331
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:37,280
of 2.65 points per match in seia this season this is a record in the big five european leagues

332
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:43,760
this season if they maintain this average they will have they will gain more than 100 points

333
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:51,200
in 38 matches only uventus and their quanta have managed this in seia my god and that was in 2013

334
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:58,160
2014 when they got 102 points it is it is looking like they they at the moment i'm viewing them as a

335
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:05,120
100 point club like because even that level because even if they rest starters for the champions

336
00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:10,720
league their subs are fine you know elmas is gonna play he's gonna do fine like you know

337
00:34:10,720 --> 00:34:15,200
fucking juan jesus will play at the back hill put their shift simon eraspadore you know their

338
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:23,520
subs would start at milan right yeah exactly exactly um just to bring a bit of awareness

339
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:30,560
about victor ozzyman in his last four seasons for lil and nopoly victor ozzyman has scored 51 goals

340
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:38,160
in just 94 league appearances since 2019 only erling holland with 86 has needed fewer games

341
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:46,080
in the nigerian to score 50 goals in the big five european leagues so that's prolific ad right there

342
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:53,280
today i made a point at work that if i said if ozzyman were to go to united united would fight

343
00:34:53,280 --> 00:35:01,360
for the league um and everyone told me to relax they said that ozzyman is overpriced at 120 or

344
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:10,160
140 million and i told them like what's there i don't watch seria yeah i told that that's all

345
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:14,960
and they said they said fair enough i don't watch him often enough and then i i had to show them how

346
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:24,480
much he scores and just the goals that he scores i mean the the man at the moment is like with no

347
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:30,960
doubt whatsoever so the best striker in the league for sure hands down no comparison maybe

348
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:36,560
vlavic when he's in a great run of form but i think even then he's not as good as ozzyman

349
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:44,160
he is also then i would say top five strikers in the world at the moment

350
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:52,480
yeah i would say so um it's hard to not at the moment you know with the way he's looked with

351
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:58,320
nopoly you can't really say plus um many of the big strikers have have gone quiet you know the

352
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:04,160
levandovsky types those guys so i guess if there is a time for ozzyman to be top five it's now right

353
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:09,200
and i think the only way is up for him because the the desire he shows in the game the fact that

354
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:13,600
there'd be three in a lap and he still goes into 50 50s where he's gonna get his face kicked in or

355
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:18,400
his ankle fucking stomped he keeps going in man he doesn't care you know you see him by the end of

356
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:24,240
it at one point he had his mask lopsided because he had just received a knock he was on the floor

357
00:36:24,240 --> 00:36:29,680
they were bandaging up his arm and helping him up with from his other arm like this guy is just

358
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:35,440
fucking falling to pieces and he keeps going dude he's he's a beast it's fun to watch yeah it's very

359
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:42,640
fun to watch he's he's to me like a god he's like among other strikers in the league genuinely is

360
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:49,600
like a god it's true like i would say he's one of overall the best players in the league yeah

361
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:56,880
victor osieman overall like he um kicked the ball into a woman's face at the start of the game and

362
00:36:56,880 --> 00:37:02,720
i saw the warm-up and he went into the spezia stands and apologized personally to her everyone

363
00:37:02,720 --> 00:37:07,440
saying grand ozzyman and all the middle-aged men put their phones in his face that was tough to

364
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:14,400
watch um a point about spezia now bro um on the darker side spezia haven't scored in four of their

365
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:20,080
last five games they're really feeling the loss of their big striker in zola and they can't seem

366
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:28,160
to find anyone to score the goals in his stead um well they've signed uh shumarodov now in that

367
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:34,240
attempt i think if you give shumarodov some time he will show us that he's a good player for sure

368
00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:43,040
and the question is can he turn things around for spezia can he be the guy to score goals for them

369
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:51,600
first test was a very tough one up against rahmani and minjay but maybe he'll get his opportunity

370
00:37:51,600 --> 00:38:02,480
yeah verona have inched to four points behind spezia um in the relegation pool spezia i i think

371
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:08,560
will be in danger they'll be in trouble this season i think spezia i'm gonna say it this this

372
00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:14,800
season they're in the fight i'm not gonna go they're in the fight as far to say that they are for

373
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:22,000
sure gonna get relegated um because and the only reason i say that is because they're salernitana

374
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:27,200
i don't believe verona will get relegated yeah i don't believe that and i think sasuala are too

375
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:36,240
low i think they're gonna shoot upwards like dogecoin yeah um shebaeno shebaeno dogecoin um

376
00:38:36,240 --> 00:38:42,480
um pardon me man i thought i was the sick one out my voice i'm getting something out you are

377
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:47,840
i'm getting something key got something you have something i'm why are you making it sound like an

378
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:56,720
std dude or utr or something maybe it is maybe it is who knows um but i think spezia are there

379
00:38:56,720 --> 00:39:04,320
they're definitely there and at the moment saying in a rash way if i were to speak my mind right now

380
00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:10,080
i think they'll get relegated this year but then i understand then i understand there's 16 games to

381
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:15,680
go so we can't be that rash in making that prediction no no you're right and we never know

382
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:20,880
what might happen like verdena shimorodov might start linking up and like saving spezia while

383
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:25,840
you know letria might just not win another game this and they've got the dog in them the dog is

384
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:31,440
what saved salernitana last time if you have the dog you can stay up man that's it man

385
00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:38,240
woof woof that's what ballardini has the dog exactly ballardini is the dog and ballardini is

386
00:39:38,240 --> 00:39:45,920
no fucking but he's an alsatian he's a rottweiler you know he's a boxer he's one of those yeah

387
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:51,760
that's right that's why he didn't put up a fight against letria because he's got that dog in him

388
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:56,480
now naapoli are first partying they're still partying they've been partying for a while now

389
00:39:56,480 --> 00:40:05,120
56 points in first you know winter or second with 43 points you do the math i'm spezia and 17th with

390
00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:11,120
18 points the next game we're going to be covering is roma 2 empoli nil the previous encounter was

391
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:18,640
also a victory for roma as they won 2-1 away from home roma did a 3-4-2-1 formation with rui patricio

392
00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:24,240
on goal a backline of ebonyas smalling and mancini el charawi out on the left zalevski out on the

393
00:40:24,240 --> 00:40:29,600
right double pivot of the big boys mattich and cristante pellegrini out on the left the ball out

394
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:37,040
on the right with tammi abraham up front they've also got a system nailed down roma empoli and then

395
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:43,120
fielded a 4-3-1-2 formation with vicario on goal ebuehi out on the right parisi out on the left

396
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:50,320
with luperto and the winter as the back two akpra akpro and marin alongside bandonelli formed the

397
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:56,400
midfield three with baldanzi just ahead of them and satriano and caputo starting up front so in

398
00:40:56,400 --> 00:41:01,440
the second minute it only took two minutes for roma to open the scoring and it was ebonyas as

399
00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:06,640
the balas corner met the head of ebonyas who rose spectacularly to head the ball into the back of

400
00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:13,680
the net despite vicario getting a hand to it three minutes later same routine it was the balas corner

401
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:19,520
tammi headed it into the bottom corner this time leaving vicario rooted to the spot same routine

402
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:26,160
same result for roma in the 43rd minute empoli had an opportunity to get one back but ebuehi

403
00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:31,200
failed to hit the target after an excellent cross by marin from a free kick this was almost an empty

404
00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:35,920
post because the keeper committed and the ball got passed the goalkeeper and it fell to ebuehi

405
00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:44,480
but he skied it then in the start of the second half vicario just produced a masterful triple save

406
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:51,040
three kisses for vicario he first stopped the balas volley and then a montrini rebound and then

407
00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:57,440
he lifted his leg up in the air whilst grounded to deny tammi abraham's header into what seemed

408
00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:02,960
like an empty goal as far as tammi was concerned what to say it was one of those football anime

409
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:09,200
moments you know i don't know the names of the animes but they're quite a few galactic soccer

410
00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:17,120
or something yeah yeah yeah a bunch of that stuff but this was just great by vicario i think he's

411
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:23,840
we've been saying for ages that he's a fantastic talent we're saying in season one as well i'm glad

412
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:31,440
he kept it up it shows that he actually is and we weren't just being momentary and that just

413
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:37,760
showcases abilities he's one of the best keepers in the league and it's no wonder how teams like

414
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:42,640
bayer munich were mentioned to be interested in him in january i had not heard that you hadn't

415
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:48,400
heard it to be honest neither neither did i but i heard the tofa commentator so that's my source

416
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:55,680
okay i know they brought in jan sommer after noyer's incident yeah you know byron they can just say

417
00:42:55,680 --> 00:43:01,440
okay who's the second best one exactly here in the league you come here and psg have the same

418
00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:07,520
pool power that's the equivalent of like let's say mariette gets injured for now pulling just buy a

419
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:12,000
manián i mean uva were kind of like that for a while when it came to youth products when they

420
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:17,440
were when they had their nine-year hiatus they they would just buy every hot italian talent back then

421
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:25,680
100 and then inflate their prices roma did what roma do to their full potential they got they

422
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:31,360
scored two early set pieces essentially both taken by the bala one scored by abanhas and one scored

423
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:39,520
by tammy abraham he's back skirt skirt um doesn't mean that empoli didn't have a good game of football

424
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:44,480
and probably have been very good and they had a decent game over here as well now roma do allow

425
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:49,120
you to have possession but then probably had 55 percent ball possession they had 11 shots and two

426
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:54,640
of them were on target obviously not an easy game against roma and that's why their output was

427
00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:58,800
struggling but they had a decent game yeah they did and it was always going to be tough for empoli

428
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:05,040
considering they have actually never beaten roma at home in seira and the last time they beat them

429
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:13,280
of course in their own stadium was in february 2007 which is quite a while ago yes um raz van

430
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:18,720
marren your boy raz van marren dude we rate him very highly over here since he made his seira debut

431
00:44:18,720 --> 00:44:26,160
in 2020 um only two midfielders have created more chances from set pieces than him raz van baby raz

432
00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:32,560
van he's created 82 chances behind only lorenzo pellegrini and charla no glue i wouldn't have

433
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:38,000
thought that personally i wouldn't have guessed um he's been taking these set pieces for a while

434
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:45,200
like with calieri and all that yes it's true but i still think there are loads of more players that

435
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:52,240
have created more chances than raz van marren under the radar under the radar yeah but i like i like

436
00:44:52,240 --> 00:44:57,760
and rate marren a lot but there's only so much obviously he and empoli could have done in a

437
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:05,120
match like this you can see it too from set pieces in that manner in the first five minutes it's just

438
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:10,000
i mean that could have happened to milan you know yeah and you look at for example

439
00:45:10,720 --> 00:45:16,480
abraham's ability to hold the ball up he's got such tidy footwork bro he really does man even

440
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:20,080
when they're when they're containing the lead and they just want to kill some time you know

441
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:24,400
abraham just holds the ball for his teammates to push up field such a good team at the moment

442
00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:30,400
they are man they are it seems like morinio now he knows his team he's getting the best out of

443
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:35,120
them obviously it helps that he has certain rivals that are slipping up which allows them to slot

444
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:41,040
into third which is a great spot for roma to be because before teams could slip up and roma

445
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:47,120
wouldn't capitalize but now this is morinio's roma you slip up and they smell blood and look

446
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:53,200
there they are again another very consistent victory for roma and then probably are no walk

447
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:57,360
in the park at the moment i know a lot of teams that would struggle against them so

448
00:45:57,360 --> 00:46:03,680
big win for roma don't get it twisted yeah and the center back three managed to phase out satriano

449
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:08,080
and caputo very well it feels like baldanzi was doing a one-man job over here for empoli it was

450
00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:14,560
all baldanzi um parisi and then i guess you could say like marlin and bandonelli trying to make

451
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:18,480
everything work from the midfield it was those guys you know and lopretto holding the ball for

452
00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:23,520
a long time too yeah but yeah the strikers barely touched the ball yeah i just want to mention

453
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:28,640
vicario one more time before we move on just because it sounds like like we should give him

454
00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:36,480
a bit more praise but he's so good guys vicario is so fucking good vicario is one of the next big

455
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:42,240
things if it weren't for donna roma he'd be up there with the italian national team like because

456
00:46:42,240 --> 00:46:50,240
he doesn't wank in showers he's a true professional he's a true professional but his empoli are in

457
00:46:50,240 --> 00:46:57,360
12th place on 26 points actually level on points with monza and juve and just three behind bolonia

458
00:46:57,360 --> 00:47:03,600
and odinese and four behind torino if i'm going to keep doing this thing roma and third on 40

459
00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:10,160
points one ahead of lazio two ahead of atalanta and milan and they are three behind in there

460
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:16,160
yeah super the next game we're going to be covering is verona one lazio one the previous

461
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:23,200
encounter was a 2-0 victory for lazio verona lined up with a three four one two formation

462
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:28,720
with montepo in goal coppola hyen and maniani at the back with doig on the left the pauli on

463
00:47:28,720 --> 00:47:34,560
the right and a midfield duo of tamese and duda with lazovich playing behind the strikers lasagna

464
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:41,920
and in gonga god believe that duda and lasagna on the same team duda lasagna true man i also think

465
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:49,200
it's in gonj it's in gonj yes this was the first time i saw this guy it sounds like laconj like

466
00:47:49,200 --> 00:47:58,960
laconja the two mother okay let's take it easy yeah i meant that yeah i think it's in gonj okay

467
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:04,240
in gonj pretty good player in gonj very good well judging from this game he's very good this

468
00:48:04,240 --> 00:48:09,200
is the first time i'd seen him but anyway four three three four lots your usual sorry formation

469
00:48:09,200 --> 00:48:15,200
with providel in goal maricich on the right hisai on the left with romanioli and cassale at the back

470
00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:21,520
midfield three of louis alberto cementing himself back into the team cataldi and milinkovic salvage

471
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:26,800
with pedro on the right wing a goal scorer of the week with zucconi on the left and the mobila up

472
00:48:26,800 --> 00:48:35,680
front in the 18th minute in gonj shot was palmed by providel into the path of doig who skied the

473
00:48:35,680 --> 00:48:40,960
rebound this was a massive letoff for lazio what a miss by doig and he was so disappointed in

474
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:45,120
himself because he's been nailing these types of chances all season long he has been let's just

475
00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:49,840
hope he can put it behind him and move forward because he is a very promising player indeed he

476
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:54,880
is in the 45th minute there was a great attack by lazio which resulted in our goal of the week

477
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:59,840
pedro received the ball from inside the area he had his back towards goal but curled an unstoppable

478
00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:06,800
strike on a full 360 spin past montepoix gorgeous and unstoppable yeah i don't think there's a keeper

479
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:13,440
in the world i would have saved that man in the 51st minute in gonj scored and equalized and in

480
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:19,680
swinging free kick by lazovich was headed in by the incoming siriling gonj leaving providel rooted

481
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:25,680
to the spot this was his first start for verona and this was his first goal in seria yes sir just

482
00:49:25,680 --> 00:49:30,320
a minute later lazovich attempted a curling strike from just outside the area which struck the far

483
00:49:30,320 --> 00:49:35,360
post it would have been a brilliant goal and in the 56th minute providel did well to come out and

484
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:43,520
denied doig's attempt after a few more shifts in possession the match ended 1-1 yes sir a very good

485
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:49,760
a very good result for verona especially against this lazio who have been a threat they have been

486
00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:56,400
good sure one second they're beating milan 4-0 and then the next day do drop points they're not

487
00:49:56,400 --> 00:50:03,040
perfect but still very good for verona who sit in the bottom three to get more serious points to

488
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:08,960
their name like this because you'd you know one can only dream of being having such a bad season

489
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:14,400
like verona and getting one point against lazio there's normally a game where you get crushed

490
00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:22,080
yeah but not really for hellas verona who have shown recently out of their last 10 games against

491
00:50:22,080 --> 00:50:27,920
lazio their 10 home games they won five and lost five so they're a very worthy opponent for lazio

492
00:50:27,920 --> 00:50:34,800
and they have caused them some problems in the near past yeah in the in the past yes my reference

493
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:41,520
comes with how poor they've been this season in the in the opening half and how low they find

494
00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:48,640
themselves in the league and but yes other than that to me they're a team that can take on some

495
00:50:48,640 --> 00:50:53,040
serious teams and do well as we've seen them do in the past couple of years and even with their

496
00:50:53,040 --> 00:51:00,160
lack of talent it does seem like they still they still have that identity yeah it's true and this

497
00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:06,240
was a fucking hard fought draw for verona lazio tried and tried and tried they brought on philip

498
00:51:06,240 --> 00:51:10,160
anderson of the bench to try to make an impact three-round mobile really wasn't at the races

499
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:15,840
just yet this is one of his longest dry spells in a while simply because of his high goal scoring

500
00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:21,680
standards but basically lazio bro away from home are nowhere near as good as they are at home when

501
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:26,640
they're at home it's almost a guaranteed victory at this rate and that's true that's right i wonder

502
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:31,840
what it is i mean obviously they have great fans and it's always easier to to play at home but

503
00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:39,440
you know they they need to brush up on their on how they perform away from home and get to the

504
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:45,600
bottom of why that is because it's one thing being you know being better because of your fans but if

505
00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:49,200
it means without your fans you're gonna have terrible performances then maybe it's something

506
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:57,040
they should assess perhaps it's the secondhand smoke caused by sorry smoking on the team bus

507
00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:05,840
yeah listen to this listen to how important darko lazovich is for verona he has scored the most

508
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:11,360
goals for them this season three he's created the most chances for his teammates 20 he's had

509
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:16,800
the most shots on target with eight he's attempted the most crosses from open play with 48 he is

510
00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:25,200
is in every single way verona's best player this year 100 100 in the beginning of the season he

511
00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:31,680
wasn't as efficient as he is now i mean he's found most of those numbers i would say since the world

512
00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:39,360
cup break yeah i would say um he's been playing closer to goal as well he has been he has been

513
00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:43,520
playing closer to goal i remember he was playing as a left wing back and then he was being utilized

514
00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:49,920
like as a central midfielder now he's close to goal as like a left forward i would say just left

515
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:55,440
behind the striker and he's very effective over there man and and i mean in this in this game

516
00:52:55,440 --> 00:53:00,880
again he assisted and he hit the post it's like he wants to score in every game last game he forced

517
00:53:00,880 --> 00:53:06,000
an own goal the game before that he scored he's been so good for verona he's a massive reason as

518
00:53:06,000 --> 00:53:12,960
to why their season has turned around verona have brought in duda as a replacement for um

519
00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:18,320
illich who has left duda is by no means a young prodigy or anything like he's a 28 year old

520
00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:23,600
established player with lots of experience looking to come in and make an instant impact

521
00:53:23,600 --> 00:53:28,880
kopal ahian and manjani have seemed to tighten everything at the back and look even harder

522
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:36,320
to um penetrate nowadays with montepoore as well doing quite well how haven't you made a duda

523
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:44,640
joke yet and then you said then you said penetrate and i was sure it was coming i saw you smile sure

524
00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:51,040
it was coming because duda means dick in malta yes that's what you tell your child exactly it's

525
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:57,600
it's it's like willy this is a very babyish term all right you ready for bed you washed your duda

526
00:53:57,600 --> 00:54:05,600
oh i mean you brushed your teeth as normal

527
00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:16,960
he's from slovakia and he was bought from coln in germany okay yeah so he's an experienced player

528
00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:22,640
coming in to aid this relegation battle so far it's going well lots of continues to struggle away

529
00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:28,240
from home while verona continue to slowly climb their way out of the relegation pool or what seems

530
00:54:28,240 --> 00:54:34,880
to be the case anyway verona are in 18th with 14 points while lazio are in fourth with 39 points

531
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:41,440
the next game we'll be covering is sasuala one atalanta nil the previous encounter was a 2-1

532
00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:47,920
victory for atalanta in bergamot this time sasuala start in a 4-3-3 formation as they always do with

533
00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:54,480
concilien goal a back line of rogerio ruwan erlich and zortea out on the right to the midfield tree

534
00:54:54,480 --> 00:55:01,280
of henrique objang and fratersi then there was laurente out on the left verardi out on the right

535
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:08,080
and greg war de frelle up front for atalanta they played a 3-5-2 formation with mussongol back line

536
00:55:08,080 --> 00:55:13,200
of toloi gymsity and scalvini hattabur was their right wing back meyler was their left wing back

537
00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:19,760
not for long with de hoon ederson and cope miners in the middle with lukman and hoyland up front

538
00:55:20,720 --> 00:55:26,400
in the 30th minute the referee eiroldi was prompted to carry out a var check after penalizing

539
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:31,680
melee for a foul on berardi the check clearly showed that melee planted his studs into the

540
00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:40,800
ankle of berardi causing the referee to brandish a red card to melee obviously terrible rujeri

541
00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:47,200
replaced ederson ederson the young italian right wing back but the team obviously was still down

542
00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:53,120
to 10 men and within the 55th minute sasuala took advantage of that and it was laurente that opened

543
00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:58,320
the scoring the frenchman went toe to toe with hattabur as he cut inside and unleashed a curling

544
00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:04,720
strike into the bottom corner from quite a tight angle impressive strike from an impressive player

545
00:56:04,720 --> 00:56:10,640
to say the least atalanta found it very difficult to get back into the match after that then in the

546
00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:16,160
final moments to make matters worse muriel was dismissed for a descent after telling the referee

547
00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:22,640
and i quote you're bad at this the referee immediately brandished a red card to which

548
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:29,120
muriel replied what i can't even say you're bad at this am i supposed to congratulate you after

549
00:56:29,120 --> 00:56:35,200
that performance him and meyler now will miss atalanta's upcoming match against latio that's

550
00:56:35,200 --> 00:56:41,440
that latino fire no one just can't help themselves i don't think the referee had a bad game no he was

551
00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:47,440
fine he was fine i mean the male of all was a red card yeah exactly and muriel's probably

552
00:56:47,440 --> 00:56:51,840
he's complaining about and muriel is probably frustrated today that his season isn't going as

553
00:56:51,840 --> 00:56:59,520
well as previous seasons did he's looking heavier he's looking slower he's looking more lethargic

554
00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:04,720
less mobile less technical almost almost like he's overthinking what would come naturally he currently

555
00:57:04,720 --> 00:57:09,040
looks like he's in the latter stages of his career that his career is coming to an end you know he's

556
00:57:09,040 --> 00:57:14,080
not the type to have a long career no true but fortunately they have hoylen and lookman who are

557
00:57:14,080 --> 00:57:18,560
adequate replacements his game was obviously obviously skewed i do think that atalanta would

558
00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:23,680
have caused the usual problems that they cause so swallow in fact only against juventus have so

559
00:57:23,680 --> 00:57:29,440
swallow lost more matches in seya than against atalanta wow and they've lost 11 games out of 19

560
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:37,360
against atalanta and 14 against juventus obviously we put a bet on those who wasn't the case yeah no

561
00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:42,000
i mean you think atalanta and the level that they're at they would be capable to get it done

562
00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:47,840
but you can't really predict anything that's going to happen a football game and for a red card to

563
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:52,480
take place in 30 minutes when both teams are probably still figuring each other out at least

564
00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:57,680
they were at that stage was a massive hit for for atalanta and so swallowed it really well to

565
00:57:57,680 --> 00:58:03,440
capitalize from that man it might sound easy because you're 11 against 10 but no it's not

566
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:06,880
because they can sit back defend with nine and you're fucked all game and this is one of the

567
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:12,640
fittest teams in the league like they will run exactly you know exactly so adam ola lookman has

568
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:18,720
scored in the reverse fixture against us swallow first of all yeah he has netted 12 goals so far

569
00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:25,040
this season and since 1999 only five players have reached as many goals in their debut season as

570
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:33,440
um lookman has now in their first 20 appearances these were lucacu ronaldo piyotec milito and

571
00:58:33,440 --> 00:58:38,640
chef shanko well ronaldo we're gonna clarify that it's christian of course yes just in case

572
00:58:38,640 --> 00:58:43,120
that's interesting because i thought that um abraham last year he broke some records for the

573
00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:47,520
amount of goals that he scored in the debut season but it must have been over 20 games it must be

574
00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:52,240
exactly exactly impressive stuff by lookman obviously coming over from the prem where he

575
00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:59,840
didn't perform very well yeah um and just his career just changed for the better now under

576
00:58:59,840 --> 00:59:04,640
atalanta he fits the system and he's a fucking force to be reckoned with man he's a little

577
00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:09,600
devil and gasperini's figured him out beautifully exactly what a coup like who would have signed

578
00:59:09,600 --> 00:59:15,360
lookman you know what i mean a very hipster move by gasperini arsa swallow back to the robin hood

579
00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:20,320
ways stealing from the rich and giving to the poor we'll see if they're gonna give it to the poor

580
00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:25,440
because at the moment they've given a lot to the poor yeah but they and and they've and they've

581
00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:32,640
given a lot to the to the rich as well this year yeah um i think robin hood needs to be a bit greedy

582
00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:40,080
now i think robin hood needs to steal from the rich steal from the poor and run as fast as they

583
00:59:40,080 --> 00:59:48,000
can exactly they need to be a communist leader exactly yeah so that was the game pretty much

584
00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:55,360
um atalanta tried to come back into it but of course sasuala just dominated the game exactly

585
00:59:55,360 --> 01:00:02,560
atalanta find themselves in fifth place on 38 points one behind lazio while sasuala are in 15th

586
01:00:02,560 --> 01:00:10,400
and the gap between themselves and verona who are in 18th is nine the next game we're going to be

587
01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:17,920
covering is salernitana nil juventus three this game happened on a tuesday night very weird yeah

588
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:23,760
um the reverse fixture was a two two draw and this was when there was the controversy at the end of

589
01:00:23,760 --> 01:00:29,040
the game when conjuevo was keeping the play on side but milik's goal was ruled out juventus should

590
01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:33,600
have had three points for that game exactly for salernitana it was a four three three formation

591
01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:38,640
once again playing with a four at the back with ochoa in goal brotherlich on the left and sambia

592
01:00:38,640 --> 01:00:45,280
on the right with trust ekong and bron as a center back duo vilhena caviglia and culibaly in the

593
01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:52,320
middle with dia on the left conjuevo on the right and piontek up front for juventus it was a three

594
01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:56,960
five two formation with shesney in goal danilo bremer and sandra were at the back with de xili

595
01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:02,160
on the right and kostich on the left rabiolo cattelli and miretti played in the middle with

596
01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:09,680
dimarion vlaović playing up front in the 26th minute vlaović scored the penalty after miretti

597
01:01:09,680 --> 01:01:16,320
was tripped by caviglia who was a former youth product after a day of juventus former youth

598
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:21,920
product yeah after a dangerous pass by dimaria vlaović stepped up and on his return he struck

599
01:01:21,920 --> 01:01:28,160
the penalty and off the post without joa getting very close to saving it in the 45th minute it was

600
01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:34,400
the other serbs turned to score this time it was kostich vlaović's miss hit volley landed to kostich

601
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:39,760
who slotted past the oncoming ochoa this was um hilarious to be honest because you get to see

602
01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:44,240
vlaović kind of like he's embarrassed at how bad the shot was but he's smiling because his

603
01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:50,000
teammate actually scored yeah his international teammate as well yeah just two minutes later

604
01:01:50,000 --> 01:01:55,200
caviglia's undercooked pass was intercepted by fajoli who played a through ball to vlaović who

605
01:01:55,200 --> 01:02:00,320
slotted it into the bottom corner a bit of a disaster class by caviglia here yeah i think

606
01:02:00,320 --> 01:02:06,240
he's doing you a little favor yeah in the 52nd minute dimaria struck the woodwork from the first

607
01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:10,640
time curled attempt this was a copy of his shot that hit the crossbar against napoli

608
01:02:10,640 --> 01:02:16,000
can't get these in yeah no not at all but when you when you think dimaria hit the post you'll

609
01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:21,200
imagine this guy so don't worry yeah keen hit the post after he was played through by kiesa at the

610
01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:27,040
end of the game but that was a very comfortable victory for juventus agreed agreed three points

611
01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:33,920
three goals let's run away with that juve yeah no problem for them vlaović is back and contributing

612
01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:40,480
to every single goal that was scored for juve this game more things to come for him players do tend

613
01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:46,160
to have impressive goal scoring records against saler and etana so this could perhaps be the case

614
01:02:46,160 --> 01:02:54,080
for vlaović who will have who will get goals against saler and etana we've seen vlaović not

615
01:02:54,080 --> 01:03:01,360
get the chances that he did that for jarentina in an allegory system now that was without playing

616
01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:07,120
alongside dimaria so now that dimaria is in the team and now that he has someone to feed him and

617
01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:13,280
kiesa is coming back into the team as well he's more likely to get more chances and we know how

618
01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:19,360
he is if he gets chances he is deadly he's ruthless he's very good he has a great technique

619
01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:24,640
great physical presence good pace good shot there's no reason why he shouldn't bang in goals he's got

620
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:29,520
a world-class player in dimaria playing alongside him he's got someone who knows him very well at

621
01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:34,080
the national team as well and philip costich playing on the wing he's got fagioli who looks

622
01:03:34,080 --> 01:03:38,240
really direct and looks really intelligent with his passes playing over there so we might be able

623
01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:44,480
to see vlaović with these new guys having a bit more chances exactly now it depends is he going

624
01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:50,160
to be the sole striker is he going to start alongside arcadius milik is dimaria going to

625
01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:54,080
play out wide is he going to play behind the striker is going to play alongside him in a two

626
01:03:54,080 --> 01:04:01,840
up top all this will change how vlaović season goes essentially but he's a big boy he can adapt

627
01:04:02,640 --> 01:04:07,440
yeah for sure we'll see how he does miretti injured his ankle in this game he was straight

628
01:04:07,440 --> 01:04:12,560
straight off it was brutal my god watching someone going through all that you almost feel weird that

629
01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:18,160
the cameraman isn't going to help him you know he's just there on the floor being filmed screaming

630
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:27,920
in agony like stop recording come on put it down yeah that's i think that's the only time where

631
01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:34,160
i'm watching footballers but then i go thank god i'm not a fucking footballer like that looks so

632
01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:39,680
annoying the uva medical team has ruled out talks of a fracture that's embarrassing

633
01:04:42,160 --> 01:04:47,680
what is it some kind of wuss yeah i thought it was broken he's fine physically

634
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:54,800
a few things about his personality that are a bit such really a warrior you know

635
01:04:54,800 --> 01:05:04,000
so lernitana have not won back-to-back games since october and have only recently ended a seven game

636
01:05:04,000 --> 01:05:09,600
winless run in the league do you think it'll get better for them they're hanging quite low bro do

637
01:05:09,600 --> 01:05:14,000
you think they're a kind of mid-table team do you think they're relegation candidates what do you

638
01:05:14,000 --> 01:05:20,160
think they are selling it on no i think they had a a very good start maybe didn't come all at once

639
01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:26,560
like odin ss success for example it was more sporadic but they were a force to be reckoned

640
01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:33,680
with against mid-table teams as well that's where they're dangerous now they are on a bad run of form

641
01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:39,280
and you know like the stat like jake just said it was seven matches without a victory

642
01:05:42,400 --> 01:05:46,560
but i still think that because of their unity because of their players and because of their

643
01:05:46,560 --> 01:05:53,920
coach they have more of a chance of survival than your specias and then your sambdorias and

644
01:05:53,920 --> 01:05:59,680
cremonaises so you see them as a team above outside the relegation fighting relegation

645
01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:10,480
but i think they could be i think their top would be being like a like a 13th 14th okay yeah like

646
01:06:10,480 --> 01:06:14,880
they were the highest potential fair enough fair enough and they have a good project going on they

647
01:06:14,880 --> 01:06:21,840
bring in very smart players very smart signings as well and i was surprised to see antonio

648
01:06:21,840 --> 01:06:27,520
con dreva not doing anything this game essentially he was involved in three goals in his previous

649
01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:32,800
three matches against juventus with one goal and two assists it was unlike him to do nothing yeah

650
01:06:32,800 --> 01:06:38,640
yeah i think again sometimes we go after the player when in reality we should be going after

651
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:44,800
the entire team so he was a product of salernitana not being in the game i'm afraid and not vice versa

652
01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:49,760
i mean they played it on his side to try to create he was kind of over complicating things with the

653
01:06:49,760 --> 01:06:56,560
cross he did whip in a few nice ones for bonazzoli especially later on so yeah perhaps he was unlucky

654
01:06:57,200 --> 01:07:02,400
you mentioned earlier vlovic is always going to score against salernitana yeah that was a

655
01:07:02,400 --> 01:07:08,080
statement and you're absolutely right he's scored six goals in four games against salernitana this

656
01:07:08,080 --> 01:07:13,600
includes a brace that he scored with ferentino on the 11th of december 2021 so they are one of

657
01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:19,120
his favorite teams to score against and he really demonstrated that on his return yeah i mean it's a

658
01:07:19,120 --> 01:07:24,560
it's a party sometimes when salernitana are off and they did as well have fazio out injured not

659
01:07:24,560 --> 01:07:31,680
sure if that's a good or bad thing majore madzoki and gomber obviously you've have their fair share

660
01:07:31,680 --> 01:07:39,360
as well with arcadius millicout bonucci paredes pocba and kyle george not that that makes so much

661
01:07:39,360 --> 01:07:47,280
of a difference yeah i think we can move on to be honest we most certainly can uventus are intent

662
01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:53,200
they of course are still working on their on appealing the decision that has reduced 15

663
01:07:53,200 --> 01:07:59,520
points from their season while salernitana are in 16th with 21 points the next game we're going to

664
01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:04,880
be covering is the derby della penino between ferentina and bologna it was an away victory for

665
01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:11,680
bologna two goals to one they also won the previous encounter the same result two goals to one for

666
01:08:11,680 --> 01:08:17,520
ferentina it was their classic 4-3-3 formation terra ciano on goal and the back line of beraghi

667
01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:23,600
igor milenkovich and dodo a midfield three of barak amrabat and bonaventura and the front three

668
01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:30,160
of saponara jovich and nico gonzalez for bologna it was their 4-2-3-1 formation with skorupski

669
01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:36,400
in goal and the back line of posh lucumi sosa and cambiasso a double pivot of schouten and dominguez

670
01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:41,840
or solini out on the right soriano out on the left with ferguson in the attacking midfield role

671
01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:47,760
with zerg zay just ahead of him so in the 10th minute ferguson's header was cleared off the line

672
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:53,280
and onto the crossbar by jovich bologna's players were certain this was a goal that had crossed the

673
01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:57,840
line but the referee's watch didn't signal this it would have flashed if it were over the line

674
01:08:58,400 --> 01:09:04,400
the referee went to check var and instead of spotting a goal he spotted a barak handball in

675
01:09:04,400 --> 01:09:10,560
the tussle that followed awarding a penalty to bologna it was quite a clumsy one his arm was out

676
01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:15,680
there in a tussle with his opponent but quite unfortunate obviously that it landed exactly there

677
01:09:15,680 --> 01:09:20,160
or solini stepped up a few moments later and he slotted the penalty into the bottom right corner

678
01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:26,560
sending terracciano the wrong way but what a start to the derby yeah five minutes later

679
01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:32,000
fiorantina equalized and it was saponara he got the crucial touch to a volley by nico gonzalez

680
01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:39,680
putting the ball into the back of the net not exactly saponara magic but saponara efficiency

681
01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:47,600
the magic came shortly after the magic came in the 30th minute saponara released himself to an

682
01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:54,160
astral force as he attempted an audacious bicycle kick which rattled the crossbar and multiple

683
01:09:54,800 --> 01:10:04,000
multiple ovaries around the world i heard that 17 women gave birth in the 35th minute of fiorantina

684
01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:08,640
bologna it would have been the goal of the season it would have been the goal of the season man i'm

685
01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:15,600
telling you we've been talking about saponara over here for so long he is zinedine zidane when he's

686
01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:22,960
on man he's our god yeah the problem with him once again is that he's a little bit immobile he's kind

687
01:10:22,960 --> 01:10:28,560
of heavyish that's it and he's a bit inconsistent and his fitness isn't fantastic yes and and he

688
01:10:28,560 --> 01:10:33,360
does zone in and out when it comes to form but he always has that one there's one or two moments in

689
01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:38,560
a game where he just serves someone perfectly or like scores a fucking but it's not like his

690
01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:46,480
moments are always goals sometimes his games are close to perfect yes when you're watching him it's

691
01:10:46,480 --> 01:10:52,560
like you're watching poetry in motion when he's on he kind of has that insignia approach where he

692
01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:58,160
cuts in early and delivers a nice ball into the box for example in the final third he can get

693
01:10:58,160 --> 01:11:02,800
really creative and he can really think on his toes at one point this game he gave a trivela

694
01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:07,520
through pass with the outside of his foot whatever the fuck you call that amazing like his technique

695
01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:12,320
is technique is really even on the bicycle the technique is flawless with some yeah yeah but

696
01:11:12,320 --> 01:11:19,440
we're getting a bit sidetracked 47th minute posh made a 2-1 for bologna it was an orzolini corner

697
01:11:19,440 --> 01:11:24,320
that was headed in by posh thanks to some very sloppy set piece defending by Fiorentina

698
01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:32,880
again that has been quite a theme for Fiorentina not only particularly from corner kicks and set

699
01:11:32,880 --> 01:11:37,760
pieces but even just across the board poor defending and posh has been super at these

700
01:11:37,760 --> 01:11:44,080
four goals this season for four goals for posh wow gonzalez late on in the game attempted a

701
01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:48,880
bicycle kick off his own literally with the last kick of the game but was handled rather easily

702
01:11:48,880 --> 01:11:56,480
by skorupski you know he's just simply not saponara we always talk about fiorentina over

703
01:11:56,480 --> 01:12:02,960
complicating things just trying these types of shots just when you need a goal you know just come

704
01:12:02,960 --> 01:12:08,000
on yeah try something safer yeah sometimes i feel like they play without a striker which is weird

705
01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:12,560
considering they have luca jovich up front they find it hard to serve him and i was one of italiano's

706
01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:18,240
40 before coming that's true it was his main thing that's true but you said this was your match of

707
01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:23,760
the week bro oh it was so exciting man there were six shots on goal for fiorentina seven shots on

708
01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:30,560
goal for bologna it was end to end you know both teams looked capable of scoring it was a fantastic

709
01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:35,600
midfield battle going on over there with amrabat playing very well and shout and domingas and

710
01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:41,600
ferguson trying to link up as well also lini has been given this i don't know it's almost like he's

711
01:12:41,600 --> 01:12:49,040
been promoted in a certain way to to like the the main playmaker everything goes through him now it's

712
01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:53,760
almost like mortis put all his faith in him to to lead the attacking charge and he's doing so well

713
01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:59,520
man he has the talent to do it it's always seemed like it was a bit of a consistency

714
01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:06,240
slash attitude problem there were many times where i think he believed that he was the star of the

715
01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:10,880
team and rather than that motivating him it just made him have quite a laxative approach

716
01:13:12,240 --> 01:13:16,640
but this is why you need a good motivator and this is why good motivators make good players

717
01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:20,640
that's why ronaldo is one of the greats it's because he had moreno because he had ferguson

718
01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:26,160
because he had antrellotti and obviously because he's a fucking beast and and he's

719
01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:30,800
ronaldo but you guys know what i'm saying i just found it surprising that bologna got past

720
01:13:30,800 --> 01:13:36,000
fiorentina twice this season i know that they have been better than fiorentina this season but you

721
01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:42,320
look at history and i mean fiorentina have won more matches in seria against bologna than any other

722
01:13:42,320 --> 01:13:47,840
opponent they're literally their favorite opponents they have 56 victories against them okay albeit

723
01:13:47,840 --> 01:13:53,840
they've got 46 draws and 39 losses as well but they're also unbeaten in 16 of their previous 17

724
01:13:53,840 --> 01:13:59,840
matches against bologna so bologna to get the double over there free writing history so impressive

725
01:13:59,840 --> 01:14:05,600
something has changed and finally the talent that bologna is being utilized well dante agamotta well

726
01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:10,160
dante agamotta you see them right now they're in ninth top half of the table and that's where they

727
01:14:10,160 --> 01:14:16,160
should have been yeah for a while and it's it's interesting because you see torino in seventh

728
01:14:16,160 --> 01:14:21,440
and odinezza in eighth and bologna look better than these guys man bologna look better than these

729
01:14:21,440 --> 01:14:26,640
guys they look very very very good and you see the mood is really good in bologna and torino

730
01:14:26,640 --> 01:14:32,640
but odinezza for example the mood isn't as and i think this this brings me to a point i think

731
01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:38,320
motta has got a knack for talent yeah i think he i think yeah he had his period where he was

732
01:14:38,320 --> 01:14:44,400
playing everyone and not being consistent in his 11 we have put a pin on that and said that he's

733
01:14:44,400 --> 01:14:48,880
trying shit out he has to because he needs to come up with something that works for him so he needs

734
01:14:48,880 --> 01:14:55,040
to try everything and and you know he's come up with ferguson he's come up with zerg zay he's

735
01:14:55,040 --> 01:15:01,840
come up with soriano ahead of barrow he's come up with orsolini yeah posh cambias orsolini being

736
01:15:01,840 --> 01:15:07,680
back into the team as well dominguez again stable in the team and just even sauce i do the back

737
01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:12,960
i do it at the back even sauce just he is i think this is the best bologna could be

738
01:15:13,840 --> 01:15:18,640
at the moment with what they've got and it takes a true leader to get them there man and i think

739
01:15:18,640 --> 01:15:25,040
motta is a true leader for them especially after what they went through man bologna yeah and he

740
01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:33,120
it's true and and he did a very good job at space yeah motta keeping that side up was a

741
01:15:33,120 --> 01:15:37,840
was a master stroke yeah no wonder he left after one season huh yeah he was like i am not doing

742
01:15:37,840 --> 01:15:47,520
that again he'll one day manage inter possibly for sure for sure for sure yeah maybe and he'll be

743
01:15:47,520 --> 01:15:53,280
fine and they'll be fucking good under him and they'll have an era the motta era you'll see we

744
01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:59,200
might come back to this huh yeah i hope hope well not hopefully because they'll genuinely be i see

745
01:15:59,200 --> 01:16:05,920
in the future that just being a good period for inter but yeah we'll see one can only wait and

746
01:16:05,920 --> 01:16:12,800
see man bologna are in ninth with 29 points while ferentino are in 13th with 24 points

747
01:16:14,560 --> 01:16:21,760
pardon me you're up king torino one udinese nil the reverse fixture was a 2-1 victory for torino

748
01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:28,240
torino have done the double over with the nese now torino lined up with a three four two one

749
01:16:28,240 --> 01:16:34,080
formation with milinkovic salvage in goal bonjour noshures and gj at the back voivoda on the left

750
01:16:34,080 --> 01:16:39,120
and aina on the right lennetti and richie were in the middle with karamohan miranchuk playing

751
01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:46,000
off the shoulders of sanabria for verona it was a three five two formation with sylvester jingol

752
01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:52,480
bakao bijole and pairs were at the back with ezibwe on the right and udoggi on the left arslan

753
01:16:52,480 --> 01:16:56,880
wallace and samardzic were in the middle with isaac success and beto playing up front

754
01:16:56,880 --> 01:17:02,800
in the 49th minute all aina's in swinging cross was half bullied in by karamohan who made an

755
01:17:02,800 --> 01:17:07,760
excellent run off the ball the goal was initially cancelled due to an apparent offside but the

756
01:17:07,760 --> 01:17:15,040
referee reverted his decision after a varchek 1-0 yeah correct decision very close but we have got

757
01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:22,960
the finest technology to let us know just how close it was yes sir and karamoh was looking

758
01:17:22,960 --> 01:17:30,320
really good this game very active very present always wanting the ball always moving forward

759
01:17:30,320 --> 01:17:36,160
he had a very good game karamoh yeah and this was after demba sec had a pretty good game as well so

760
01:17:36,800 --> 01:17:40,160
good to see that there are a few options for terino up front because we always say that they're

761
01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:45,200
lacking in this department yeah especially when they sign no one well they signed miranchuk okay

762
01:17:45,200 --> 01:17:51,920
but they signed no one yeah it's true they're they're really not helping them and you know

763
01:17:51,920 --> 01:17:56,560
you know urich has been screaming for exactly for signings so it's good to know they can they can

764
01:17:56,560 --> 01:18:02,960
come across this kind of talent like demba sec and karamoh torino and udenes's last say a draw was

765
01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:10,640
back on september 16 2018 that was one one with goals from depol and mate since then udenes have

766
01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:15,840
won three games while torino have won six including of course the reverse fix clear this season

767
01:18:15,840 --> 01:18:23,200
this would be my cue to go no way bro there we go on a more interesting note all i know good

768
01:18:24,640 --> 01:18:31,600
he played really well he has scored two goals in 94 appearances but both of them were against

769
01:18:31,600 --> 01:18:37,680
udenese oh okay yeah okay so he's the udenese killer over here online i played a really good

770
01:18:37,680 --> 01:18:44,640
game out wide yeah i i rate all i know a lot i rate all i know a lot um i was really interested

771
01:18:44,640 --> 01:18:51,440
to hear that he at a youth level played alongside likes of tammy abraham oh yeah with chelsea coming

772
01:18:51,440 --> 01:18:55,840
coming up through the ranks there were a bunch of players known that i forgot who they were exactly

773
01:18:55,840 --> 01:19:02,640
i think maybe there was mason mounds and mounds in there and a bunch of others sorry if we're

774
01:19:02,640 --> 01:19:08,400
leaving anyone out guys we're leaving many people out yeah well denise i have attempted the most

775
01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:16,160
shots in seya in 2023 92 shots at least 11 more than any other team in the process wow okay yeah

776
01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:23,040
udenese are an offensive animal and more than meets the eye but they're struggling man they are at the

777
01:19:23,040 --> 01:19:29,280
moment it feels like they are udenese are struggling i mean in their last one two three four in their

778
01:19:29,280 --> 01:19:36,480
last six games they won one lost three and drew twice there we go they're not on great form man

779
01:19:36,480 --> 01:19:40,880
they're not on great form they need they need to get it together if they want to keep fighting for

780
01:19:40,880 --> 01:19:44,640
europe they had that great start and it helps a lot because the teams around them now have picked

781
01:19:44,640 --> 01:19:49,600
up form and you look at torino for example they've just leapfrogged them dude into seventh so this was

782
01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:57,600
a very personal affair exactly a big big three points for torino you could say six point a six

783
01:19:57,600 --> 01:20:05,600
point match for torino yeah man and torino had four shots on target udenese had three 11 shots each

784
01:20:05,600 --> 01:20:11,840
56 percent ball possession for torino and eventually a hard fought victory for them yes sir would you

785
01:20:11,840 --> 01:20:18,320
let us know where they stand in the standings torino are seventh with 30 points while udenese

786
01:20:18,320 --> 01:20:25,440
are eighth with 29 points the next game we're going to be covering was i think my favorite

787
01:20:25,440 --> 01:20:32,000
game um well one of them at least it was monza 2 sambdoria 2 the previous encounter was sambdoria

788
01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:39,920
nil monza 3 monza lined up with their three four two one formation with d gregorio in goal a back

789
01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:45,920
line of caldi roller marie and itso carlos augusto was out on the left with churia out on the right

790
01:20:45,920 --> 01:20:53,280
and the double pivot of pes pesina and machine pes pesina a new signing for them i'm not joking

791
01:20:53,280 --> 01:21:00,080
it's pesina caprari and morta played in the left wing and right wing rolls with petania up front

792
01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:07,040
for sambdoria it was a three four two one formation as well with audero in goal a back line of amione

793
01:21:07,040 --> 01:21:12,320
nuiting and cole they had laris out on the right augelo out on the left and double pivot of

794
01:21:12,320 --> 01:21:18,560
cuisance and harry winks gabiadini on the right jurekic on the left and lammers up front gabiadini

795
01:21:18,560 --> 01:21:25,440
must have heard us laughing when we heard that he was playing right winger because wow people

796
01:21:25,440 --> 01:21:30,480
people coaches like to play this guy out wide and by coaches i mean stankovic but anyway still very

797
01:21:30,480 --> 01:21:36,160
close to goal of course so in the 12th minute gabiadini opened the scoring lammers's long ball

798
01:21:36,160 --> 01:21:42,880
was not dealt with by caldi roller as gabiadini took full advantage slotting under d gregorio

799
01:21:42,880 --> 01:21:49,200
still had a lot to do over there in the 32nd minute carlos augusto's low cross into the box

800
01:21:49,200 --> 01:21:55,280
was controlled by petania with his back towards goal converting on the turn that's his first goal

801
01:21:55,280 --> 01:21:59,440
from open play this season you know we've always said he's good with his back towards goal now

802
01:21:59,440 --> 01:22:04,800
whether or not that means well normally it means he lays the ball off nicely or he backheels it

803
01:22:04,800 --> 01:22:10,080
nicely into space but apparently can turn and shoot as well so yeah great news kind of like a

804
01:22:10,080 --> 01:22:17,680
slower pedro strike exactly slower chunkier strike in the 58th minute gabiadini got his second and

805
01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:23,440
sam doria second he netted a rebound after a great save by the gregorio on laris header

806
01:22:23,440 --> 01:22:32,160
okay it did take until the 98th minute for sam doria once again to not get the full three points

807
01:22:33,040 --> 01:22:37,760
piscina converted a clean penalty with the last kick of the game sending out there or the wrong

808
01:22:37,760 --> 01:22:43,280
way the penalty was given away by murru who wrestled petania to the ground in the box

809
01:22:43,920 --> 01:22:50,880
like careful it's the 96th minute of the game and he's 28 years old you know he should be calmer

810
01:22:50,880 --> 01:22:54,560
please be careful you know the ball just came and it wasn't even that dangerous and he just

811
01:22:54,560 --> 01:23:05,280
grabbed him and took him to the ground like please be careful but monza kind of ran with the game they

812
01:23:05,280 --> 01:23:10,160
did dictate the pace of it sam doria did have their moments which is why they got two goals

813
01:23:10,160 --> 01:23:17,680
two strikes by mano logabbiadini monza had 72 percent ball possession just to reiterate how

814
01:23:17,680 --> 01:23:24,320
much monza did control the tempo of the game they had 17 shots five of which were on target

815
01:23:24,320 --> 01:23:30,480
sam doria had 11 shots so fewer shots but six of those were on target i think some doria shut up

816
01:23:30,480 --> 01:23:37,920
shop very well man you know i think they they held their shape i think that they deserved something

817
01:23:37,920 --> 01:23:42,080
out of this game you know they deserved i think they deserved all three points almost for for the

818
01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:46,000
amount of work they put in to get two goals you know they never score and for them to score two

819
01:23:46,000 --> 01:23:51,280
goals and not get the three points is so harsh yeah they just reached their 10th goal of the season

820
01:23:51,920 --> 01:23:58,080
this game which is mad mad that gabiadini scored two out of 10 of their goals like

821
01:23:58,880 --> 01:24:04,320
it is maybe more i don't know if he scored earlier he has scored more this season for sure

822
01:24:04,320 --> 01:24:10,320
jesus but i agree with you i i think sam doria definitely deserved something if not the victory

823
01:24:10,320 --> 01:24:16,080
they were very unlucky to lose it obviously in the 98th minute but do you get what i mean that monza

824
01:24:16,080 --> 01:24:21,440
kind of dictated the tempo of no yes of course some doria were adapting very well though no yeah

825
01:24:21,440 --> 01:24:28,000
they just they just fucking held them out dude that's it yeah but it must be a curse for some

826
01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:35,760
doria no yeah and you look at it it's a curse because i can't record now now they've been bad

827
01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:40,240
for a while some doria you know like since the days where they had quali alas record breaking

828
01:24:40,240 --> 01:24:47,280
season under jam paulo they have been declining but they don't look on paper as you know they

829
01:24:47,280 --> 01:24:52,800
they look very similar on paper as they did in the last two seasons so seeing them decline like

830
01:24:52,800 --> 01:24:59,520
this it's almost like a an environment kind of thing you know uh-huh and i mean if you look back

831
01:24:59,520 --> 01:25:08,160
at where this all started is it not when massimo ferreiro got arrested yes when he was caught

832
01:25:09,040 --> 01:25:16,800
with some financial irregularities or financial bullshit as we rather put it declared bankrupt

833
01:25:16,800 --> 01:25:20,720
you know but now he's still there he's still there in the stands nowadays so i'm not sure if he did

834
01:25:20,720 --> 01:25:26,480
his time or he was on house arrest for a while he just dished out a sum of money and he's just

835
01:25:26,480 --> 01:25:31,600
free you know who knows yeah it's hilarious when when they accept like bail when people

836
01:25:31,600 --> 01:25:38,000
dabbled in cash like obviously they have cash yeah you know it's like hey let me use my illegally

837
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:44,240
acquired funds to bail me out of this situation they're like oh come on fine we'll take it

838
01:25:46,000 --> 01:25:52,800
but i think that was the start of some doria's dip are they directly related i wouldn't say

839
01:25:52,800 --> 01:25:59,760
directly but i think it's a ripple effect onto the club i mean you look at like it's gonna be

840
01:25:59,760 --> 01:26:08,080
interesting to see if city are gonna stay in their winning ways and stay if the locker room is still

841
01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:14,800
gonna be that high-spirited place it is same with uve we're seeing them uve so far had quite a good

842
01:26:14,800 --> 01:26:20,000
reaction but they also had terrible losses to the likes of monza after sometimes these things can

843
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:24,000
really take a toll on the players especially when you take into consideration that they are

844
01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:28,880
representing a club you know what i mean and they go to work every day they're hearing everyone

845
01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:33,360
gossiping about it you know these things it's normal like you've ever been at work and there

846
01:26:33,360 --> 01:26:40,320
was some bullshit on top of you like there's just like either two team members fucking around

847
01:26:41,840 --> 01:26:47,920
or i don't know someone's gonna get fired and they're gonna bring in a new gm and stuff

848
01:26:47,920 --> 01:26:51,200
i'm getting so much trauma right now and this shit bro

849
01:26:51,200 --> 01:26:58,320
at the time in hospitality everyone everyone fucks in hospitality and in catering bro you're two

850
01:26:58,320 --> 01:27:03,520
waiters that are serving you fuck like the chef's on the coke again

851
01:27:07,520 --> 01:27:13,360
the gm's always an asshole i've never met a nice gm but anyway um and you see these off-field things

852
01:27:13,360 --> 01:27:20,080
do have an effect on their lives directly as de shilia for example is being booed and targeted

853
01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:27,440
by by uve fans for apparently assisting the police during the investigation but this is this is one

854
01:27:27,440 --> 01:27:32,960
thing that shilia has to understand and i think i don't know if there's a correct translation from

855
01:27:32,960 --> 01:27:42,080
english to italian but snitches get stitches that's not what they do at uve uve get away with this

856
01:27:42,080 --> 01:27:48,560
because everyone's corrupt at uve they got the lict was like yes they they put the document

857
01:27:50,800 --> 01:27:56,560
i'm leaving i've had it with you that's so not fucking dutch

858
01:28:02,640 --> 01:28:07,200
it's true it's true but yeah um these two good guys came apparently and

859
01:28:07,200 --> 01:28:13,840
uh you know ratted them out i'm not even sure if i'm looking at de shilia anymore or big

860
01:28:13,840 --> 01:28:20,640
pussy bon pensiero brother hey hey hey pussy you wearing a wire on me boy

861
01:28:22,160 --> 01:28:23,920
what the fuck are you calling me snitch

862
01:28:25,840 --> 01:28:31,760
fucking hell man i love sopranos i love that moment where pussies just sat in the room fully

863
01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:38,320
knowing he's gonna get killed like but he's still speaking to tony like his brother my god beautiful

864
01:28:39,040 --> 01:28:46,800
but yeah so basically some dory are super unlucky ones are ones are safe they they continue to play

865
01:28:46,800 --> 01:28:51,520
well and they continue to push actually for european spot perhaps i can't believe we're

866
01:28:51,520 --> 01:28:57,280
meant to be talking about this game and we're just talking about pussy from sopranos yeah and we got

867
01:28:57,280 --> 01:29:02,800
here because we started talking about ferrero then the uva thing then the snitch thing oh

868
01:29:02,800 --> 01:29:09,840
exactly clearly everything filters down and everyone starts to get a bit you know affected

869
01:29:09,840 --> 01:29:17,760
by it be it negatively or positively i guess yeah a hard fought game of course some glory will

870
01:29:17,760 --> 01:29:24,480
disappoint will be disappointed while monza will be glad exactly take these points home monza are

871
01:29:24,480 --> 01:29:34,160
in 11th on 26 points level with uva and empoli while sambedoria on 10 points in 19th place just

872
01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:41,840
two from bottom place cremonese and four from 18th place verona the last game that we'll be

873
01:29:41,840 --> 01:29:48,640
discussing is cremonese nil lecture two the previous encounter was a one one draw yeah

874
01:29:48,640 --> 01:29:55,680
it was a three five two formation for cremonese with carnesecki in goal vasquez kirikis and ferrari

875
01:29:55,680 --> 01:30:00,800
played at the back valeri was on the left and ser nicola on the right with benassi mate and

876
01:30:00,800 --> 01:30:06,240
pickles in the middle chofani and desirous played together up front for lecture it was a four three

877
01:30:06,240 --> 01:30:11,600
three formation with falcone engol gendre on the right gull on the left with umtiti and basquerota

878
01:30:11,600 --> 01:30:17,120
at the back blin huelman and gonzalez were in the middle with strefetz on the right d francesco on

879
01:30:17,120 --> 01:30:24,160
the left and colombo up front the goal came in the 58th minute when huelman's delicious cross met the

880
01:30:24,160 --> 01:30:30,240
head of the rising federico basquerotta who headed in powerfully before carrying out his signature

881
01:30:30,640 --> 01:30:37,600
flexing bodybuilder celebration we can talk about this guy all day yeah basquerotto what a player

882
01:30:37,600 --> 01:30:43,520
he's been a hero for the role model yeah in the 68th minute was strefetz's turn to shine the

883
01:30:43,520 --> 01:30:48,880
Brazilian curlet into the top corner from outside the area and celebrated in a very strange way

884
01:30:48,880 --> 01:30:54,960
very strange he reminded me of mertens that kind of yeah sus celebration like oh look at me i'm

885
01:30:54,960 --> 01:31:00,720
crazy like that kind of shit carnesecki denied banda with a brilliant one-on-one save towards

886
01:31:00,720 --> 01:31:07,040
the end of the match but other than that it was plain sailing for lecture as cremones continue to

887
01:31:07,040 --> 01:31:15,200
disappoint i just dropped everything um great first half cremoneza very good first half

888
01:31:16,240 --> 01:31:23,120
and generally a dominant performance by them um at least possession wise but let you just look like

889
01:31:23,120 --> 01:31:29,120
they're so much more in tune with their offensive structure while cremoneza once you penetrate them

890
01:31:29,120 --> 01:31:35,440
once you score they seem to have no uh-huh you come back you know i mean let you are clearly more

891
01:31:35,440 --> 01:31:39,360
confident and they're more lethal like you can have all the attacks and you can have all the

892
01:31:39,360 --> 01:31:46,480
possession in the world but a good team only needs a few chances to score and that's what lecture are

893
01:31:46,480 --> 01:31:51,280
in the works to become a good team of course they struggle because they're a newly promoted team

894
01:31:51,280 --> 01:31:57,840
they're playing fucking seriabé teams last year now they're facing atalanta fiorentina milan inter

895
01:31:57,840 --> 01:32:04,640
juvento roma and all these guys and they've had good success this season in doing so they're in

896
01:32:04,640 --> 01:32:12,080
14th place um you know okay 14th isn't incredibly impressive but they're safe from relegation

897
01:32:12,080 --> 01:32:17,840
at least for now veron are on 14 points so they're nine points clear of that but then they're in

898
01:32:17,840 --> 01:32:23,600
touching within touching distance of fiorentina you know what i mean let you have been successful

899
01:32:23,600 --> 01:32:30,160
for their first stand back in seriabé yeah so yeah sorry and exactly look at this this was a

900
01:32:30,160 --> 01:32:34,640
match between two teams who have just come up together one of them is on 23 points the others on 8

901
01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:39,920
so exactly completely different experiences so far for them obviously monza had the financial

902
01:32:39,920 --> 01:32:47,440
backing which puts them in 26 points in 11th same points as as you were but yeah that's a that's a

903
01:32:47,440 --> 01:32:55,280
whole different story right yeah um in both fixtures this season strefetz has scored so okay he's he

904
01:32:55,280 --> 01:33:00,480
shows up in these seriabé games there have been six meetings in seria between cremonesa and lechia

905
01:33:00,480 --> 01:33:06,320
bro and lechia won the first one and the last one two cremonesa wins and two draws for the rest

906
01:33:06,320 --> 01:33:10,240
oh wow okay okay they're also the teams this was interesting i thought there'd be

907
01:33:11,120 --> 01:33:16,640
um a goal from a corner this game in fact there was a basquerota cremonesa and lechia are the

908
01:33:16,640 --> 01:33:21,440
two teams that have conceded the most goals from corner situations in seria this term and before

909
01:33:21,440 --> 01:33:26,880
this match with this fight actually basquerota's goal wasn't from a corner and the cross was given

910
01:33:26,880 --> 01:33:34,640
from auto from open play um but but yeah they they have been very very good in those areas and

911
01:33:34,640 --> 01:33:39,200
obviously i think both teams especially lechia being good in that area when you look at their

912
01:33:39,200 --> 01:33:45,280
two centre backs as well in basquerota and umtiti of course they're going to be good at defending

913
01:33:45,280 --> 01:33:49,600
set pieces but they also have a good system in place that has been implemented that stops them

914
01:33:49,600 --> 01:33:54,400
from conceding goals in those scenarios and obviously very effective just in aerial duels

915
01:33:54,400 --> 01:34:01,840
in general going forward and then so corners crosses everything alike for sure bro um we're

916
01:34:01,840 --> 01:34:07,760
talking about strafetz before yes he became the sixth player in lechia's history to reach six

917
01:34:07,760 --> 01:34:14,400
goals scored in his first 20 games played in seria um the stat gets a bit more specific because this

918
01:34:14,400 --> 01:34:19,600
was before turning 26 okay but a few of these guys it's interesting because i have a few cult

919
01:34:19,600 --> 01:34:28,960
hero names here boyenov boyenov who i'm not too versed with vuchinich there we go chevanton

920
01:34:28,960 --> 01:34:34,960
okay lucarelli and the vugrinich i'm sure there are some real fucking hipsters out there that

921
01:34:34,960 --> 01:34:43,680
know what we're talking about nice wow oh my god yeah not yeah he's been fantastic for them

922
01:34:43,680 --> 01:34:50,720
this year strafetz i think the confidence for you to come up like that and just really take the helm

923
01:34:50,720 --> 01:34:56,240
at your starting 11 become clearly their best player this season just overall their best player

924
01:34:56,240 --> 01:35:00,720
and the good thing about that is it's still not clear that he's their best player because they

925
01:35:00,720 --> 01:35:06,000
have many shouts for top performers but he's been that effective he gets the output there as well

926
01:35:06,000 --> 01:35:10,560
like you look at purely technique band does better but then strafetz has that flair exactly

927
01:35:10,560 --> 01:35:16,400
di francesco has also been good and colombo's growing into his role as well we've seen him get

928
01:35:16,400 --> 01:35:21,680
some success so much fun watching colombo play because like he shows you flashes of what he's

929
01:35:21,680 --> 01:35:27,440
going to be so like last time he attempted that dribble from outside the area and i was like i

930
01:35:27,440 --> 01:35:31,040
didn't know he had that in his locker where he just literally like knocked it past the player and beat

931
01:35:31,040 --> 01:35:35,600
him on the pace i was like i didn't know he could do that i had never seen him do that before so

932
01:35:35,600 --> 01:35:39,600
every time you know you see you see him show you different elements of his game it's so much fun

933
01:35:39,600 --> 01:35:43,920
like yeah what you think players in general and and the exciting thing about watching young players

934
01:35:43,920 --> 01:35:48,720
like that especially young players out on loan is they're literally there to figure shit out oh my

935
01:35:59,440 --> 01:36:05,120
apologies for that guys whenever we're recording no matter what game it is we have a game on mute

936
01:36:05,120 --> 01:36:13,600
on the tv and there's the le classique between marseille and psg and the the french cup basically

937
01:36:13,600 --> 01:36:19,600
i think it's a semi-finals or some shit and marseille at home they just beat psg and what

938
01:36:19,600 --> 01:36:24,880
happened on the tv was ramos was about to score a header and while the marseille players cleared

939
01:36:24,880 --> 01:36:31,040
the ball off the line with his hand like blatantly just like a wanker in the 93rd minute in the 93rd

940
01:36:31,040 --> 01:36:38,880
minute but ramos was initially offside so none of that mattered the goal just didn't stand obviously

941
01:36:38,880 --> 01:36:46,480
but that was that was crazy man igor tudor of course beating psg yeah of course

942
01:36:46,480 --> 01:36:52,560
rodinez legend there you go malinovsky came on for them as well in this game it was fun there was a

943
01:36:53,200 --> 01:36:59,760
what's his name chengizunder chengizunder as well shit's fun to watch guys you should if you have

944
01:36:59,760 --> 01:37:03,840
nothing to do and you're at home just flick a random game on like all right this is no random

945
01:37:03,840 --> 01:37:10,000
game is the derby the the main french derby but for us that get caught up in seria at times forget

946
01:37:10,000 --> 01:37:14,800
to broaden our horizons there's nothing's ever as good as this but um you know it should be fun to

947
01:37:14,800 --> 01:37:20,480
watch let's conclude the game yes let's say where both teams stand i think it's clear cremonez and

948
01:37:20,480 --> 01:37:25,440
20th still on eight points still haven't won a single game essentially they have eight draws

949
01:37:25,440 --> 01:37:32,720
and 15 losses let's share in 14th on 23 points level with sasuala and just behind Fiorentina
