To Hire You Need Indeed! And Ritter asks
1:01
just starting in getting an
1:03
assist. Positive development. What? Is alluding
1:05
to is this past weekend in the Premier
1:07
League Nottingham Forest patriot to to draw against
1:09
Wolves. Geo. Did make his first
1:12
start for Forest Plate about seventy minutes,
1:14
played well and got himself and assist
1:16
on a corner which he took and
1:18
Morgan Gibbs white headed and so I
1:20
would say definitely a positive development or
1:22
couple. First off, let's go specific to
1:24
the quarter because we have talked about
1:27
the inefficiency vet. As good as Christian
1:29
Ballistic is, it is maybe his achilles
1:31
heel. Is this set
1:33
pieces and just the consistently. Bad.
1:36
Said pieces. And so if Geo Raina is
1:38
going to play a big part from a
1:41
national team perspective on the field, There.
1:43
Has to be. I. Think
1:45
a. Real. Come to Jesus moment
1:47
as to who was going to take those saw. It
1:49
was nice to see him not only. G.
1:52
Urena not only get on the the score you
1:54
with the with an assist their but to do
1:56
it in that fashion which could possibly help the
1:58
Us national team going for. You don't
2:00
need me to tell you that you're
2:03
starting and you're playing after what has
2:05
been an absolutely abysmal. Time
2:07
in terms of this loan to Forest
2:09
is a good thing. Yes, it's a
2:11
good thing. Does it
2:13
seems who deal is as a player.
2:16
Know. Does it change? I think
2:18
how forest in general look at him
2:20
going forward. Know. I
2:23
think they have gotten plenty of looks at what
2:25
G O is, what Geo is, and I think
2:27
that they have made the determination long ago that
2:29
this is not somebody for the long haul. This
2:31
is not somebody that they want to. That.
2:34
What that they want to count on? He's.
2:36
A good player to them. I don't think they
2:38
look him as a as a great player and
2:40
this is just going to grind out to the
2:43
end. but. If if. If if
2:45
in that grinding G Urena is getting
2:47
playing time. Obviously.
2:49
That's a yeah that that's a good thing,
2:52
but again, I don't think that this is
2:54
fundamentally change To. The. Wage Ios.
2:57
Time here at Forest. Is.
3:00
Is has gone. certainly what is going
3:02
to go. On. A sour note:
3:05
Bournemouth played to to to Home Drug
3:07
and Manchester United This past weekend Tyler
3:09
Adam set out again with back spasms.
3:12
Oh my gosh, I mean. I
3:15
just I feel bad for him. In.
3:17
That he is obviously the early suffered
3:19
physically now for the last. Year
3:22
and a half with some serious injuries
3:24
and again we don't know how connected.
3:27
With. Italy connected. In terms of his body,
3:29
these injuries are. And I
3:32
just hope they are being overly cautious.
3:34
With. Him. And making sure.
3:36
That. He is as good as he can
3:39
possibly be before getting him back out on the
3:41
feel and it's probably it's probably killing him and
3:43
I'd I'd be interested. To know
3:45
if there was a moment when this happened or
3:47
of his sister says something thing that is chronic
3:49
with him. but he just wakes up as people
3:52
that do have bad back problems do. Sometimes you
3:54
either put yourself in the wrong position or you
3:56
wake up one morning. That's just as just not
3:58
happen. Must. Our forgot
4:01
different Gianni Infantino has been
4:03
visiting our shores. So much
4:06
so that's the she actually
4:08
showed up. And
4:10
gave a presentation evidently at the
4:12
Mls Owners meeting right here in
4:14
Los Angeles last week that true
4:16
correct. And in that presentation, he
4:18
urged Mls to think big and
4:21
bold, and because you've used that
4:23
exact same language on his podcast,
4:25
be deduced that he must have
4:27
gotten that from you. Well, The
4:30
titans of industry and the leaders
4:32
and the. Power. Brokers
4:34
and the Kingmakers if you will
4:36
out there they all was listed.
4:39
Podcast. We know that they want to
4:41
be informed, they want to be entertained,
4:43
and let's be honest, And
4:46
they want They want their content
4:48
generated for them. whether it's public
4:50
or whether it's up private. Sure.
4:52
Ah, It Or or or I'd
4:54
I'd a joke. But what
4:56
Gianni Infantino is saying to them? Is.
4:59
Something that. Yes, I've said all
5:01
of for. From. The last couple
5:03
years. But I'm not alone. There's plenty
5:05
of people that are talking about this
5:07
ramp up to twenty six. And also,
5:09
let's be honest, Gianni Infantino was not
5:11
telling the Mls ownership in that situation.
5:14
Anything that they don't know. It.
5:17
Is coming. From. Gianni Infantino,
5:19
And. Obviously don't from Chino and Fifa
5:21
have a vested interest in. The.
5:24
Next five years let's say in the
5:26
United States what's going on and beyond.
5:29
And so there is a power and await
5:31
to Gianni Infantino. Talking to
5:33
the Mls owners. Wilde.
5:36
Gianni Infantino has power a while I
5:38
like the he's things that are music
5:40
to my and many others ears and.
5:42
Echo what we are talking about, what
5:45
we are. Desperate. For
5:47
and begging for. I'm.
5:49
Not sure that it is going to
5:51
change anything. Maybe. A little bit or
5:53
and and and even if it's just planning a
5:55
see, I'm good with that. We saw that there
5:57
were some rule changes that even close to what.
6:00
I. Or Gianni Infantino or others would
6:02
want. But as we said before, we
6:04
love to spend other people's money. However,
6:06
this constant beating of this from I
6:08
think is good. Because. I do
6:11
think that there are plenty of Mls owners.
6:13
Their said do what to do something big
6:15
and bold relative to Twenty Twenty six and
6:17
com this off season. I would expect more
6:20
things to happen and come next summer and
6:22
come next off season leading up to Twenty
6:24
Twenty Six. And yes I know that be
6:26
a the circus will leave to. Gianni.
6:30
Infantino is absolutely right.
6:33
Because. This is a moment.
6:36
That needs to be captured. This is
6:38
a moment that is ripe for doing
6:40
big bold the things in the game
6:42
and to the victor. Will.
6:45
Go the spoils. And the spoils
6:47
are. This. American soccer culture
6:49
that once again is not only going
6:51
to come together, but it's going to
6:53
come together in a way that we
6:56
have never seen before. And that sense
6:58
that we talk about so much is
7:00
so much bigger but can accommodate so
7:02
many more. And when that circus does
7:05
leave town. And
7:07
what are you going to be left with? Well, I. Think
7:09
it's going to depend on the big bold
7:11
things that you did leading up to it.
7:13
And so thank you Gianni Infantino. For.
7:16
Saying what a lot of us have been saying. And.
7:19
Saying it to the people that do have
7:21
the power to make changes and to do
7:23
big Baltics must You've got to know him
7:25
a little bit goofy have and correct so
7:27
now he's it is an interesting dude with
7:29
an interesting pathway and looked anybody that's in
7:32
that position. Is and
7:34
has to be very intelligent. Of.
7:36
Has to understand politics
7:39
and. Obviously is a
7:41
part of a politician and.
7:44
But. You also have to you know I think
7:46
be able to. Be with people
7:49
and to interact in a personal level.
7:51
They. Get people to trust you again
7:54
and on the green necessarily with everything
7:56
the Gianni Infantino has done. but you
7:58
have to respect. His.
8:00
Longevity. Ah, The.
8:03
Things that he has done to. Better.
8:05
Fifa. And.
8:08
The fact that he is willing to spend time. On.
8:11
Something like Matrix Zoc. I don't think he
8:13
has ever addressed Major League Soccer before. What
8:15
as this emerging. I
8:18
think for he would look at it
8:20
as this emerging asset in the world
8:22
of soccer. I think it was smart
8:24
politically. I think that was smart long
8:26
term in terms of the thinking of
8:28
what people going on. People who has
8:30
offices are coming to the United States
8:33
obviously the Forty Forty Six and I
8:35
think he can see how the United
8:37
States as a soccer nation is going
8:39
to be more and more important. To
8:41
Fifa and to the world
8:43
of soccer going forward. but
8:46
it requires fig old action
8:48
and physical. Perhaps
8:50
we can get him on the hop on
8:52
a yeah I would be cool. I think
8:54
he would die. I think he was is
8:56
that he's an interesting huge difference. A different
8:58
languages and offices traveled all over the world
9:00
seem a lot about Sakara. Feel.
