2:15
see love indoor ski
2:17
a bosses red and blue stripes
2:20
it is that a my dreams
2:22
well as as a dream as being pushed
2:24
all over the place on it is
2:26
, being clear the to out of the three
2:29
parties are desperately wants
2:31
it but by
2:33
of not really had to have been down the
2:35
hatches as much as i lay my have done
2:37
and i said the stall out pretty early in the window
2:40
in and i said the
2:42
new date i was going to let him go without going to hold
2:44
into the last year of his contract as he mentioned before
2:47
on here really hurt as you still
2:49
like the word even though he's a cop
2:52
with not , much day to day involvement
2:54
with by and he said well we've seen
2:57
how level of he works he wanted to to
3:00
us a year it leaves fall
3:02
off a year before we are actually did he wanted
3:04
to leave dortmund a year before and dumps they
3:06
held into the last year of his contract and he had
3:08
a really productive season so we know is not going to dance
3:10
halls and the
3:13
biggest problem though has been
3:16
florida because we have
3:18
my progress will live in dusky as
3:21
got binds or point where they're happy
3:23
to name a price which they weren't even
3:25
at a month ago but , big
3:27
problems barcelona can't come anywhere near that
3:29
a despite the fact less moving very
3:32
financial chairs at the end of that
3:34
financial year year the at
3:37
of course i've got in a
3:39
bit more cash i'm from
3:41
partial side of the tv rights of cel ten
3:44
percent of the tv rights we found out on
3:46
thursday afternoon
3:48
the to an american hedge fund that means as a
3:50
fifteen percent of the tv rights that
3:52
they're am allowed to sell snuck
3:55
him permission bus representing
3:59
the voice of the other
3:59
you have to sell up to twenty five percent
4:02
of those tv rise and
4:05
i don't know about you david but a point where
4:07
they still com register christensen
4:10
to see a reason so he roberta you
4:12
that was already there player in every science
4:14
a new contract it
4:17
all seems incredibly short termist yeah
4:20
it is it's it's it's very i think is really
4:23
really blake and i think
4:25
what , it worse is he
4:28
north they are doing these are doing mean the plaza down
4:30
they said like the know the idea of this
4:32
cash injection basically is just
4:34
to make sure they and the financial yeah
4:36
process so that planned down that the fact
4:38
that the money's for a factual
4:40
signings but i mean we all know it is the
4:43
fact that they want to spend some of the money that they freed
4:45
up on a thirty three year
4:47
old striker who is
4:49
pretty much one it all
4:52
and you do have the one day know
4:54
how much longer has he still got how much is also
4:56
he still gotten the tongue and eleven dusky
4:59
it just yeah it's just know
5:01
the strange strange boss lawn decision
5:04
and look i know is one of the best strikers in the world of
5:06
costs book it is it's again
5:08
with all short termist third
5:10
the long term plan that from basa just
5:13
doesn't seem really to be there
5:15
and a it's the gravely concerned
5:17
and and he nor there in
5:19
for with muscovy on,
5:22
on new contract and an anal
5:24
and other young players of phoenix to
5:26
drop their demands and searching, it
5:29
really has and it's not
5:31
going to be a while before they actually sort
5:33
themselves out if, you know, i'm talking a
5:35
a long, before they actually there was well what
5:37
do what about the boss affirms that david
5:39
a bit memo speaks at least in
5:42
three different or excited about
5:44
the prospects of somebody like lemon
5:46
dogs geek a smear
5:48
notwithstanding coming for boss
5:50
and mls
5:52
yeah of course it's it's robert love not eating
5:54
one of the best strikers in the wealth or for the last couple
5:57
years of of course but
5:59
i think they but one fans are funny
6:01
bunch their ram then
6:03
they they care a lot you know there's someone
6:05
who are willing to do not
6:08
leave the star signings leave the big names
6:10
and names and on the basis
6:12
of bringing in young players be through the economy
6:14
all around europe they thought they'd
6:17
rather signing a thing as a bright young
6:19
player with her with a big big future you know
6:21
it's why there's so much you
6:24
know sadness over what's happening with linkages young
6:26
i think there was like a lot of feeling for
6:28
him and and while he could bring as well but i just hasn't
6:30
worked out and you know i think they'd
6:33
they'd rather see somebody like him succeed
6:35
or see a player from the economy succeed then
6:38
eleven does he come in but then there is that will there
6:41
part of the farm bill that does one signings
6:43
now on to compete now on
6:46
all fronts and i don't think even if
6:48
they get love industry that they're prepared to
6:50
to to do that are offering of your other fingers
6:52
the they make , of
6:54
or spend a lot of january
6:56
getting forward place i'm
6:59
a think if you're talking about on terms of what
7:01
they actually meet them on them pitch on the
7:03
a reliable centre
7:05
backs for for a start the midfield
7:08
typical sorted and i think the fact
7:10
that i've got a young midfield is going to be propelled
7:12
forward by a perjury a
7:15
gary nico the
7:18
of allows them to sell the illusion
7:21
of the fact that they're going forward with
7:23
, players whereas the rest
7:25
of the to me that if already brought in obama young
7:27
who's in a short time been very
7:29
successful nothing could continue to be
7:32
for for a while the problem
7:34
that you are laporta the president
7:36
has done is and we've seen
7:38
this with selling pot of the right swathe
7:41
getting a deal with spotify that's that's
7:44
a lot of barcelona observers believe
7:46
is below market value for the shirts
7:48
and for the the sponsorship of of
7:50
camp know is without
7:53
superstars you can't get the big sponsorship
7:55
deals and i think sometimes his
7:57
fans we always look at it you
8:00
know what is a player who's gonna
8:02
be the silver bullet was a push my team over
8:04
the hump a lovely cause i think
8:06
look at it like that anymore how is this
8:08
player can assess how we gonna sell the sponsorships
8:11
how we gonna guess twitter
8:14
instagram facebook impressions
8:17
all of us all of that stuff
8:19
matters to advertisers matters mass to the
8:21
financial health financial club
8:23
i think might have loved to have yet to bosses well
8:25
if he looked aware that he's gone up psg he's
8:27
gone up months the he's so envious
8:29
of the superstars the are going to the premier
8:31
league the you know that that the have being
8:33
not that and bobby a stay at psg am
8:36
he's envious of this and he
8:38
tried accurate the league on a basis of the
8:40
enough pushing forward those sponsorship deals
8:42
that in that you mention his wealth and this is a big
8:45
big issue for him and every now and then a to spoil
8:47
all that and he is gravely gravely concerned
8:50
and he knows that you
8:52
can try and sell la liga on the
8:54
stance of eden or look at some of the the great
8:56
young players that than six like that
8:58
but they're us there is still not really
9:01
does he know those those big superstars
9:04
they just aren't there anymore they the still they
9:06
still in a depression still in a hangover
9:08
from the messy rinaldo yes the street
9:10
from column
9:12
the us spends his be
9:14
also question vespers everybody was you know
9:17
where do i see sig love indoor ski
9:19
who end up or no end up
9:22
this , if he doesn't
9:24
make it to busload of will really
9:26
be plainly just run that is contracts
9:29
to the toy way can go for free
9:32
i think she's either by and player and
9:34
twenty two twenty three odds
9:37
, just don't think barcelona has
9:39
the ability to make it happen i think bond
9:41
will hold him to his contract as we said
9:43
knowing that he will
9:45
continue be very productive for very
9:47
productive but think the idea that they'll
9:50
be less of a market
9:52
for eleven dusky next year
9:55
adi by that's all i mean he'll be thirty
9:57
four by then of course bus
10:00
image not just a player is maintaining his for me
10:02
supply that improving , phone going
10:04
into the surveys surveys
10:07
think he's got plenty of he is left i think a
10:09
very very attractive on
10:11
attractive free next summer maybe
10:14
barcelona with seems to be the only club he wants
10:17
as or at the front of a key then goodness
10:19
knows what financial position they'll be financial by
10:21
they'll end spur it i guess
10:23
the extra year gives chelsea
10:26
parasites you mouth others the
10:28
opportunity to make their representation
10:30
soon because their think the thing we've seen dot
10:33
and with this market the
10:35
summer this that there are not that lot
10:37
of hotline
10:39
i plus elite number nine out
10:41
there in the market and i think you look
10:44
at the way that's some of the biggest clubs
10:46
are looking at reinforcing their
10:49
squads i think the markets quite time in
10:51
that sense the or wonder
10:54
if i hadn't influence on say the
10:57
cocky moving to am at moving back
11:00
to incest and i think is certainly if
11:02
we go back yes had an influence
11:04
in chelsea resigning a plant
11:07
that was completely unsuitable for him
11:09
i wouldn't be surprised if we got to the under this window
11:12
chelsea of maybe a few
11:14
trial experience in terms of trying to get a striker
11:17
and and they might just pearl or cheeky last
11:19
minute i honestly last year of the window one
11:22
, little bit in for leavened dusky com
11:24
we get a man i wouldn't be surprised at all
11:26
if they if they tried something like that but
11:28
are completely agree with you with think i think
11:31
love and asked economist ever going to remain going to and
11:33
player and he said a word
11:35
when describing barcelona and laporta
11:37
illusion even of allusions
11:39
i think that's exactly what is they look they want to
11:41
give off the impression that they are competing
11:44
in the market they were even talking about
11:46
few months ago about holland they would never
11:48
anywhere near holland and me
11:50
you know and they but they were still talking about
11:52
him as a possibility under the players as well
11:55
you know wheaton the doing it with ruffin yeah now as
11:57
well it's given their fans hopes
12:00
selling allusions to them and ultimately
12:02
i think they're nowhere near the top end of the market
12:04
to compete
12:05
you still looking at it i'm out
12:08
still rather have barcelona
12:10
his problems as complex as they
12:12
are do you've outlined stabbed
12:14
very well i think outside rather
12:16
have their problems and have a problem
12:19
that atletico madrid of
12:21
go where they're losing their star
12:23
player he , and so agrees
12:25
my there's been something of a talisman
12:28
looks like he's going down and
12:30
fifty doesn't seem to be much they can do to keep
12:32
it for my wrong in this and and
12:36
, this is a couple
12:38
of a here firstly it
12:40
of the speculation around creates man who and
12:43
we just had a so the car and so president
12:45
said of the end of last season
12:47
is definitely steinem will be an athletic our planet
12:49
next season speculation has risen
12:51
butterfat season agreed a deal to
12:54
sign acts of itself midfielders
12:56
lepers you dortmund as a bit of
12:58
experienced holding as a
13:00
in midfield it
13:02
seems i can't get him on the might spill at the moment
13:05
a similar situation the
13:07
want to barcelona spain experiencing
13:09
because there is a salary cap
13:11
in la liga you can't spend more than seventy
13:14
percent of your in com
13:17
on on wages and
13:19
they're very very close to the top of
13:21
that been operating like this for a while atletico
13:24
and because barcelona situation
13:27
is , dire i think it's easy
13:29
to overlook what of financial
13:32
tight rope atletico atletico
13:35
because of their costs have spiralled
13:37
either that the that ten
13:39
years as they become more successful as well
13:42
and look at gears man and and
13:45
it was a good deal to get him back from barcelona
13:48
but , those massive wages the fact
13:50
is his confidence is drained
13:52
and in twenty twenty two is
13:55
, recent months he that poor for let's
13:58
go is look poor for france he's
14:00
not look like scoring and
14:03
, hasn't scored in in la liga from months
14:05
and months and months is on a really
14:07
bad dry spell with france as well stephen
14:09
didier deschamps who's a huge fan
14:12
be as man loyal loyalist asked
14:14
his questioned him a in him a months
14:16
and you know maybe one end up in the eleven when
14:18
it comes to the the world cup so
14:22
greer mounted a difficult spot he's thirty one
14:24
i don't think alexa will be able to
14:26
get out from under their obligation
14:29
of buying him personally especially when you look
14:31
at the wages david
14:33
yeah absolutely that the clause
14:35
that makes them the mix the deal
14:37
obligatory is easy to go out and sixty
14:39
percent of the games and yeah spliff forty five minutes
14:41
in them that's easy don't he's gonna play those
14:44
am forty million obligatory
14:46
at the end of the next season at
14:49
current season as we as we move into it on
14:52
yeah was yeah pool destruction deal destruction the part about
14:54
lady they didn't really look at the be picture
14:57
book i
14:59
think i'll let the situation has somewhat been
15:02
wonder read it and overlooked because
15:04
of just how much of a mess boss loner
15:06
of thing but outlet year in a serious
15:08
serious tradition he at where they
15:11
need they they did make forty million
15:14
this summer they need us that us that that they need
15:16
forty million in from sales they're going after
15:18
move somebody on it's in a lot
15:20
of talk of run unloading
15:22
though and he somebody i think they should
15:24
be moving on with a young
15:26
brazilian there with massive massive potential
15:30
be , should be built in the next call your
15:32
squad with for it looks like he's gonna go there
15:34
carrasco talk never ever goes where
15:37
your just always talk of him potentially go on as
15:39
well because he remains a saleable assets and
15:41
, gonna have to do this every single some because they're
15:43
costa just out of control
15:46
now they never really
15:48
seen to i think i think
15:50
they think they they make a step
15:52
forward with they always taken to balk every
15:54
single window ios think and you look
15:56
at this window ritual his
15:59
best years of com lately behind them and
16:01
mean or and the fact that i let us
16:03
make in him that no the cornerstone
16:06
scion is a is is is remarkable
16:08
and i think it really really emphasizes just how
16:10
but of a situation i'd let he aren't
16:14
there's , multitude of fox's are diego simeone
16:16
it is on a huge huge salary is lol
16:18
players on very very big salaries
16:20
as well i think money hasn't
16:22
been spent wisely am daves
16:25
not been smart and a market for quite
16:27
some time now i don't think got lady and
16:31
, they've got they've got big big problems and
16:33
it would be a bigger story if it weren't for just the
16:35
to offset receive ridiculous situation barcelona
16:38
he moved to a source elite
16:40
sense of forwards and
16:43
, you you touched aluko cases in
16:45
just examined his situation
16:47
a little bit more obviously sit up
16:50
into the workout room with chelsea he
16:52
wanted to go back back
16:55
it seems said these from that's controversial
16:58
as to social media and
17:01
mustache with a contribution to he
17:03
made last year some for the go
17:05
in missoula trouble for his back their
17:07
way belongs you could argue what
17:11
difference does it make and not just
17:13
to in serbia indeed smells
17:15
of transfer musical
17:17
chairs in syria what
17:20
will is interesting dot in because before
17:22
the law cocky deal with even a possibility
17:25
we were being so the
17:27
idea of paolo the ballot the
17:30
into now is why i think
17:32
has been really interesting about this window
17:35
is the prospective a
17:37
now completed signing resigning
17:40
of le carr case has not dampen the
17:42
to bother talk so we're looking
17:44
at this from three
17:46
of le coq who lazzaro
17:49
martinez who began to be hanging onto the
17:52
and palatable us now the
17:54
ball is a frequent injury issues
17:56
notwithstanding and you
17:58
know or other thing make him a very
18:00
very risky free and inverted commas
18:03
signing in indeed especially when you
18:05
look at his eyes in his last couple of
18:07
seasons what
18:09
are we talking about earlier about
18:12
teams are going
18:14
with what looks shiny on what looks
18:16
commercially attractive run them what they actually
18:18
need on the pitch i'm i'm in nikki
18:21
band any told us a ,
18:23
of months ago on on here the
18:25
us into needed to reduce
18:27
their wage bill by about fifteen percent
18:30
percent you know that they're going after
18:32
if every sound cocky which is not is
18:35
they're looking assigning to bolland have already
18:37
offered him a contract they've signed
18:40
henrik muchas aryan on a free on wages
18:42
at reimer weren't prepared to match and
18:45
how they could find the his finances
18:48
by selling milan skinny ass
18:50
arguably the best sense of act two see
18:53
it looks like ah many some extraordinary
18:56
decision really starting to other
18:58
there's no doubt from still a cocky perspective
19:01
how could this looks because
19:04
it you know he had become allies
19:07
, a millstone for for chelsea
19:10
chelsea basically donald them on eve
19:12
dot and social point where his value job
19:14
so job i mean that like
19:17
people saying this is just kicking the can
19:19
down the road as far as chelsea are concerned because
19:21
into can't afford to buy and permanently
19:24
well know that com and the moment i mean
19:26
who knows him i have different ownership by us on
19:28
this time next year or extra investors
19:30
by this time next yes but i
19:32
had to do something for the very least
19:34
i think is we inflates the car
19:37
keys value if he gets out there and
19:40
plays well but he's well given because
19:43
as well as he talked about how he upset
19:45
chelsea fans with this is a salty
19:47
and eternally and media when he was trying when make
19:49
up with that that
19:52
rupture he had in his
19:54
relationship with the into fans because that
19:56
was obviously preying on his mind still love
19:58
into fans who i'm forgiven him on there are
20:00
people out there is a well when he when
20:02
he scores goals they'll
20:05
be fine they'll get over it some
20:08
into fans won't get over it nice and will ever
20:10
be the affection that was before when
20:12
given little cocky is a player who
20:15
needs a faction needs a fraction
20:18
of the fans he needed the faction of antonio conte
20:20
about to the very best out of him and korea
20:22
best performances out of him i
20:25
, think this being a success
20:27
is an absolute bank
20:31
monday did am the it you think
20:33
that our the main thing here is that our
20:35
le coq au is returning to daddy yeah
20:42
and just fit of people who don't get the
20:44
reference a there was a report this week
20:46
the a that , to go
20:49
and la kaku are watching a a
20:51
spurs game together together
20:53
to and turns to the kaku
20:55
and said to him as a joke apparently
20:58
oh there's your daddy in refer referenced
21:00
antonio conte and it's and
21:02
it's conte and remarkable really
21:04
the i'm you know that they stopped comment is
21:06
true
21:07
and look i do with offended by as well more
21:10
, think eight so if we don't assume
21:13
it's always about delivery buffets nothing nothing
21:16
a life a but
21:18
but it often cause injuries interesting when
21:21
you look at him going
21:23
back there are many those changes dot was asking
21:25
before the the
21:28
the the market out there for the
21:30
strikers in in in sorry i'm in utica
21:33
i'm jealous is com aca
21:35
who is making himself the to
21:38
the future number nine of these anything
21:40
current number nine of the italy saints swat
21:42
, a big the i don't think
21:45
on reasonable price on him as about forty five
21:47
million when you look at visibility
21:49
and how young he is important to turn into
21:52
i'm into were interested that doors
21:54
shots i don't see
21:56
where the event to say a
21:58
getting the the money from but
22:01
sixty one for pompa deal guess over
22:03
the line and
22:06
it's like made the maybe p
22:08
a c or the other as about here because
22:10
they've been very interested in him but
22:12
i think when we talking about the how
22:14
how short we are intend to strike is out
22:16
there what's interesting
22:18
is because santiago now we had this
22:21
three as firma j w
22:24
and football st nicholas any out i strongly
22:26
room it's be on monty by reimer despite his
22:28
obvious potential and standing by
22:31
him with see serious injuries
22:33
he did increase in both knees of course why
22:36
, been links events isn't spurs where
22:38
would he fit best best there another cop
22:41
that would seem better now of course we
22:43
wouldn't be talking about him as a striker it's
22:45
all david if we're going back to
22:47
pre those injuries to talk about on
22:49
here before about how his
22:51
body signs how is
22:54
not go that same burst of speed but
22:56
my god did he go to the gym while
22:58
the was injured and was looks like
23:01
his future space as his
23:03
centre forward as a striker because
23:06
he's working on holding the ball up now
23:09
and may be drifting off the shoulder of the defense
23:11
different roles firstly
23:14
other two questions for firstly
23:17
the thing
23:19
the you couldn't reach full
23:21
potential and to do
23:24
you think roma a right
23:26
to say is too much risk
23:28
to resign him on big wages less cash
23:31
in on him while he still got he is left on his contract
23:34
yeah the on see first question absolutely
23:36
i do still think he can reach his potential
23:38
i think we've seen on the years players
23:40
have perhaps not become the player that we thought
23:42
they would but they still xl
23:44
to saw absolutely and also
23:47
interestingly enough upping we're
23:49
that is she engine like you see those physical aspects
23:52
in what he the com i think
23:54
he quite good he quite seats you there
23:56
and in aware and and and their current
23:58
iraq i think their says them a law and you could
24:00
see him perhaps ah playing
24:03
office that love it you know
24:05
i think even lock dot their
24:08
strike or at the moment or the option i
24:10
think he could play with law which i think play
24:12
off love it is well enough
24:15
all be replacement if needs be so think that
24:17
option they're absolutely
24:20
am and secondly yeah i think rome is complete
24:22
justified i think who
24:24
you are in a precarious position financially
24:26
i think he after we're or lovely
24:29
everything and they're
24:31
just being sensible that is june two gilded
24:34
and that every club in every sport
24:36
no matter what it is have to do they have to look
24:39
at injury records they have to look at
24:41
the where the player is developing and
24:44
assessed for now yeah
24:46
if they get it war if they can get money and
24:48
potentially an option or
24:50
alone of a a you know a young player from
24:52
you view than then
24:54
i'd i'd i'd do that day of yeah yeah i'd be i'd
24:56
definitely be enjoy dot be sitting at the table listen
24:58
import that way
25:00
let's go back to choose
25:02
my daddy at the risk of upsetting
25:04
luca cure anybody else because he's
25:07
not the only person who's at returned
25:09
to the scene is an easy
25:13
, days or the subway was
25:15
weaned actually one windbag she
25:17
was he in sir alex just for the benefit
25:19
of for my metaphor alex
25:22
alex a wealthy that etti
25:25
saw the lack of set and currency to
25:27
lisa have returned silly on
25:29
these two players to play as
25:31
they are sold for combined
25:34
total of hundred
25:36
million euros hundred
25:39
million got them back for nothing
25:41
how do they do that she's
25:44
been an effort don't miss no doubt about that i
25:46
mean we are so we talked about on
25:48
the last prefer i see see of the season we
25:51
have this question about what signings
25:53
, you like see for the narrative and i says
25:56
lock is at until he sidebar for leon and
25:59
the
25:59
point i , that lack
26:02
is it was very possible are believed
26:04
to lease i was possible so because at that
26:06
point he was free to
26:08
was the ordeal when
26:11
leon inquired but and there was
26:13
very much a sense of i wanna go and play for champions
26:15
league club and that will fire my ambitions
26:18
to get into france is world cup
26:20
squad about , way
26:22
if if taught him and his impressive lack of that
26:24
as he said in his own presentation has been
26:26
a huge paws i said look i'm on the recruiting
26:29
same you know that that there's no doubt
26:31
the on i'm in his ear off
26:33
can and come back and when silly
26:35
so signed and was presented
26:37
to the that the media the said well yeah
26:40
like that played a a massive part
26:43
, it is huge for them particularly after
26:45
season in which which
26:47
missed out on year ab sink
26:50
kind of mutual need it in both
26:52
senses because i think
26:55
both luck as and silly so have shown
26:59
the improve their quality in their time
27:01
respected times are often and by and
27:04
but live know made a
27:06
completely convincing case live not be consistent
27:09
enough lucky that we form
27:12
and particular goal scored in his last season arsenal
27:15
until he so we've injuries and injuries
27:17
muscle injury to completely ruined his his his
27:19
last season that's a by and
27:22
the not convinced that i completely belong
27:25
at that currently elite
27:27
level so they need
27:29
to go back to position where they will
27:31
be senior players and run
27:33
a team tonight i will be the heads of
27:36
of our team and if i shine light to lisa
27:38
walcott pipes which but i still think we're a bit
27:40
of a long shots if he can
27:43
run things fruitiness
27:45
, the why doc in france and a big team is
27:47
awaiting the headlines then that's great
27:49
for him and with leon they
27:52
need to put up flags to say we're
27:54
ambitious you know there's just been taken
27:57
over and they've got to recognizable
27:59
dawn items in a french context
28:02
or to come back so yeah
28:04
i think is of of me to benefit
28:07
the my
28:08
in handy andy the big question
28:10
is
28:11
when
28:12
i'm pity get announced as well
28:15
when he when he gets a second ne
28:17
yeah
28:19
i i mean look or from a
28:22
a romance perspective
28:24
of our our [unk] personally love
28:26
mct that to got home as
28:28
well to join them is
28:31
, a wonderful player is huge
28:33
in france is funny eighteen world cup when when
28:36
find out their injuries in their injuries
28:38
in another thing that these been talking
28:40
some places that silly size a bit of a gamble
28:42
i think that saw that ,
28:45
gamble with mcc this unfortunately
28:48
no evidence to suggest he can do at the top
28:50
level anymore david and you think the first love
28:52
it came out for him was was your own
28:54
i ll it's lucky my end up at ren but
28:56
yeah so that the the to run a
28:58
came out for him i think shows you where
29:01
he is at the moment after any stein one
29:03
la liga game for barcelona fluffy
29:05
and then is is is really sad because while
29:07
player he was ah yeah i
29:09
was just thinking as his own city has but then
29:12
i think another as the unfairness sons
29:14
yourself will return to the i
29:18
, to an entire bonded together that
29:22
created the daddy yet to bring you back
29:24
to that
29:37
they've been a lot of for signings
29:40
instill a lot of questions about a
29:43
from europe is coming to the premier league as
29:45
, catch every
29:47
every single seat in the prem seems
29:49
to be looking to europe to sign
29:52
players coming from over there as
29:54
, plays have caught your eye at
29:56
the moment to take it when it's i'm
29:59
andy first
29:59
david's which plays the coming
30:02
over from the euro leagues are
30:04
caught your eye oh come to traveling
30:06
nothing assault one's gonna
30:09
be some bought man has net i
30:11
think is is great signing
30:13
for newcastle listeners wanted
30:15
him for very long time
30:18
that they had competition from milan
30:21
or think from our financial perspective
30:23
from why gather me land
30:25
would nowhere near the so say that newcastle
30:28
were willing to pay lil and
30:31
that just shows you really i mean we ninety chancellor
30:34
a well bags but you , they're
30:36
not spending at manchester city or chelsea
30:38
souls levels levels seen this before
30:40
like nick and for very long time you think of
30:43
all the way that i'm gonna can't i come into
30:45
leicester instead of marcell
30:48
or early on because is simply more simply
30:51
in in the in league but
30:53
you know he's a fiery that can build around
30:56
that i think when you look at say how
30:58
it very different position of course blue nike about
31:00
isis come over from legal
31:02
to the ground running really flourished
31:05
sink some signs when
31:08
it when it seem a building something newcastle
31:10
are building the
31:13
feeling of going from being
31:15
a good player in a good team and of
31:17
course i realize little had difficulties last
31:19
season but out though champions before that
31:21
and and a did brilliantly to to be
31:23
so with with thought man at a
31:25
centre back that
31:28
feeling of being one of the best players in the same
31:31
think it gives a little lift but you've seen
31:33
that in there in a confidence a blue ninety minutes
31:35
you know he's south ,
31:37
to his game that he couldn't even show in france
31:39
because he was was a posh water
31:42
carrier philly on surrounded by by
31:44
to apply as i'm on na
31:46
say a will be quite the quite the
31:49
for for for bought man
31:51
but thing is is a plan i
31:53
really needed they needed reinforcement needed they
31:56
i wonder if a c bigger clubs
31:58
will regret have in a
32:01
little guys who because the challenge for newcastle
32:03
is stop why
32:06
is common in and seen is seen it is a
32:08
stepping stone to to big a premier league
32:10
clubs again there
32:14
them the think of it we we
32:16
briefly touched the number of thing the car
32:19
camera aston villa is such
32:21
a smart with the brilliant brilliant they are
32:24
let he thought they had him in the bog but
32:27
apparently meet him with
32:29
gerrard swear so
32:31
just goes to show the power that gerrard got from
32:33
his planned as am that he can swing
32:35
in daylight thought so yeah think he's been
32:37
on he's he's versatile send a buck
32:40
defensive made is needed is well i'm
32:42
still young i think is already shown
32:46
he normally the of these potential how
32:48
reliable can be with myself so i
32:50
really really like that want a villa yet
32:53
, i'm really really impressed with
32:55
up and i think
32:57
if think was there throw a curveball
33:00
in i think you know brightens
33:02
recruitment has been really intelligent for
33:04
the past few years i think they've got a fantastic
33:06
manager and bought a i think
33:08
they they've the you know for them to get play like hulu
33:10
nc so who's been sure so impressive
33:13
in paraguay looks really interesting teenager
33:16
and he finished the season that with eleven and fourteen
33:18
before leaving a very just
33:20
robin player
33:22
good driven skills a billie
33:24
to finish as well you play anywhere across the front
33:26
line he's we're really interesting one to watch in
33:28
terms of how they develop in whether they send him on law
33:30
and somewhere but when they use straight with
33:32
me interesting to see how he goes so i
33:34
felt like a hot to get our mention as well because
33:37
this are smart business being done am about
33:39
the premier league by some of these teams here
33:41
it wouldn't have a schedule knowledge shows
33:43
your interests that sense matches
33:46
united are looking more more like
33:48
a dutch see nowadays because of
33:50
very to node oh trixie
33:52
draco the dutch flick is available are
33:55
headed straight for old trafford at
33:57
would you may kids this guy this got their from
33:59
find it in order to wrote
34:01
malaysia
34:03
yeah melissa yeah it's the mean ah
34:05
it's not quite dumbo it is it's one of those with
34:07
like like frankie the young this looks like
34:09
it's an inevitable and you know
34:11
as mining i can announce those are the same
34:14
time and parties as has just com
34:16
things that their fanbase for fanbase for little bit in
34:18
after such a hard time but yeah
34:20
melissa in on the hope is the
34:22
can be there next patrice evra me
34:24
can be there next to or tenacious player
34:27
from less box left wing box
34:29
extremely quick i'm very
34:31
very good one v one situations defensively
34:34
are i think he's got a lot of defensive argument
34:36
think he's already shown that he nor his position
34:38
sense is good and he's a strong
34:41
in a tackle very hungry player
34:43
and there's some
34:45
where to do i think on his and product
34:48
you , on the we're the removes into attack
34:50
i think that work to do their boots you are
34:52
buying potential here and the hope
34:54
is somebody like ten house who already knows
34:56
him him in or really
34:58
or that that he can
35:01
really ship and am and better
35:03
than previous monday night minds of done with
35:05
it with young talent so that's going to be really interesting
35:08
one to interesting c n
35:10
n do you have told you before about
35:12
what try word means in the europa
35:14
means of nigeria a
35:17
you know remember reply work
35:20
if somebody school try works very twin
35:22
to try word means to him and
35:24
try was the first sweden to come
35:26
back to german to the heavyweights try
35:29
one of our would be is
35:31
there going to not them for his ex
35:33
livable yeah that's
35:35
right i'm couldn't get a work permit
35:38
for liverpool size i learned about a couple
35:40
of times and then
35:43
then any on berlin and it was beautiful
35:45
but he ended up going there permanently really
35:49
really good for them and he
35:52
was that top score last season's good twenty
35:55
goals last season ended up being their top
35:57
score of all time in the supply of course of
35:59
any been some for fit for three
36:01
seasons and he's
36:03
lasco proved
36:05
, be quite a parting gift because it made sure they
36:07
qualify for the right the league next
36:09
season haven't been in the conference league league
36:12
season i think the
36:14
couple things that really impressive about him
36:18
easy strength and power is obviously something
36:20
that will make people look at him and
36:22
think i'm , suitable
36:24
for the premier league biasing as
36:26
as much more to him and i use a super
36:29
intelligent and is a great
36:31
finisher he doesn't just have to wait
36:33
for a chance he can he can make his own
36:36
own eases as eases and
36:38
i think if you look at the point midway
36:41
through last season when max
36:44
cruiser his strike partner went back to
36:46
falls back and he was quite open that
36:48
he went back to the money and which is fine
36:50
which is but cruises
36:54
have a really irreplaceable player
36:56
especially for really my only on is
36:59
a closer a really creative
37:01
so a striker you can see
37:03
can pass and i wondered how
37:05
it affects our any form when
37:07
cruiser when they ,
37:10
really brilliantly brilliantly to the why
37:12
on his shoulders and they got
37:14
to the europa league and ashley sabrina
37:16
the champions league they want that far off in in
37:18
in the end a she's part of
37:20
it was part of to him so i
37:22
think the he can succeed
37:25
in school goals in a
37:27
team that doesn't create bucket loads of chances
37:29
makes him not just a good
37:32
player but very valuable for
37:34
forest and what they're trying to do in reestablishing
37:36
themselves in themselves premier league what about this defensive
37:39
midfielder clues going to fulham
37:41
joe alley near am lucky
37:43
soon as behind what
37:46
we talked about of money before and
37:48
them out while back premier
37:50
league clubs are you , this guy
37:52
should be put to start in midfield
37:54
as side defensive midfielder don't
37:56
all the way forward and he should
37:59
have been at the that darby euros it would
38:01
given them a best start to the arise last
38:04
, i think think
38:07
a champion we sporting you've come
38:09
on so much in the past two to three to
38:12
really well bell both are you for
38:14
judicious on the ball as well
38:17
doesn't have to dive into tackles because he always
38:19
gets himself in a in in the right spot
38:21
even i can handle himself physically for
38:24
me artistry himself physically so is remarkable
38:26
that a card like like full
38:28
of a team like for them to get him but
38:31
size the financial powers the premier league
38:33
and think if you're looking for
38:36
protect the defense if you looking to have
38:38
a solid spine
38:40
he's absolutely ideal for them guys
38:42
, had an amazing response
38:45
on social media add to our
38:49
offered to to mention
38:51
any football is of interest
38:53
being transferred over summiteer
38:56
it it his absi amazing response amazon
38:58
and to say you can get out of us anytime
39:01
soon cause for the week out trouble ramble
39:03
at doesn't that a buyer at any
39:05
brasil and at day be jacket the
39:09
street is from brine oh
39:11
says and this is by the way about
39:14
players playing euro land a
39:16
lot coming to the uk but nevertheless am
39:19
past sebastian allah mid
39:22
west ham fans remember him very well of course
39:24
he went on and to her but now
39:26
gone to derby going to dortmund as kind
39:29
of a replacement is he for for
39:31
horn and he's going to man city
39:33
yeah i think the thing with follow
39:35
his he is extremely extremely different
39:38
arms censor at an island
39:40
am both i think what
39:43
are admire most about
39:45
what allah has done he could have really
39:48
really gone own death after that period
39:50
at west ham the and
39:52
in or really really been weird
39:54
down by that the see earlier of thought
39:56
you know the new want to use the word fairly they're both snowden
39:59
that essentially was that saw for him
40:01
to read and enough to rejuvenate self it
40:03
i x yet another
40:05
big move am i think
40:08
is really really impressive goes to show
40:10
his car days mentality and and
40:12
you know your what he's kept block in
40:15
terms of on the field i think you
40:17
know he's shown his energy
40:19
in the penalty area and
40:22
this aggression basically when
40:24
a call when it comes to attack in the ball in the penalty area
40:26
the way he takes a positions in their the way he's movements
40:29
am is as well i think that's really
40:32
impressive and i think you know dot me to switch
40:34
and i think we can see big switching in
40:36
dortmund style and and and and how they
40:38
play and which we looked at go
40:40
at a yeah me and as well who's also been odd
40:42
another dimension to the are taught as
40:44
can be interesting to see how everybody fits
40:46
in there , not
40:48
an overall from a dot and point
40:51
of view while without without think that
40:53
don't probably some of the smartest business in
40:55
business this summer so far they've
40:58
got their signings in early they haven't
41:00
been involved really in any you know
41:02
total any back and forth a new holland
41:04
was going he's gone early and
41:06
they been able to plan accordingly
41:09
and accordingly think they look and really think they chef
41:13
i would agree with that and i think
41:17
if , about the the the good bits
41:19
of business have done i think one that's kind of got
41:21
onto the radar that was going to be really important for
41:23
them he talked about accelerates lp
41:25
and white policies back earlier david
41:28
which are i would agree with i think
41:30
they've got sally as jan and from
41:32
a com it's going to protect their
41:34
defense then you defensive course because
41:36
that brought in a zula and
41:38
shot back and you
41:41
can have the best friend is in the world if you haven't got decent
41:43
defensive midfield it hold it down in front of them
41:45
with he says structure in front of them then
41:47
they just can be open especially with the possession
41:50
based my the that that dortmund place
41:52
i think janice
41:56
is going to be one the best place of business
41:58
costs what six million
42:00
euros which is is great pick
42:02
up a think he's proved himself it really
42:04
good premium really good bundesliga player
42:08
but got game by briefly tyler
42:11
think where you could be i
42:14
don't know more valuable than whole and is the
42:16
is is the right word because the
42:19
whole and is is it was obviously fantastic
42:21
for them and the numbers grace
42:23
think what it is without a even accept
42:26
is not just about the goals cause
42:28
his goalscoring for i actions goalscoring that
42:30
the champions league was exemplary last season
42:33
that to have a sense
42:35
, always always other
42:37
players in supply like
42:39
he did with the sense tradition
42:42
others or something are super important
42:45
and i think or yeah amy will benefit
42:47
from that maka royce will
42:49
benefit from that issue from a cocoa
42:52
would benefit from from that's
42:54
so i think is what he adds who team
42:56
besides goals that makes him superimposed
42:58
see if i try a balance the
43:00
aussies equality college friends
43:03
outside your reluctance to describe
43:05
his time the west ham is a faded
43:07
david kids are sick sex
43:10
superbly didn't work out from the west and birch
43:12
a strike of the can play with
43:15
his back to go him the penalty area
43:17
bay and whole people asks
43:19
classy be mad since know suggested
43:22
this is a quality quality signing
43:24
from them stay with me for another tweet
43:26
from caused him breaks a
43:29
says at this is a great question actually
43:31
school is talk about swap deals
43:33
year so much about it when
43:35
it comes to transfer windows
43:38
swap deals an awesome
43:40
he says is chrissy this year but do they
43:43
ever actually at
43:45
the was cigarette
43:47
yeah think
43:51
a lot more swap deals happen
43:53
then irrationally described
43:55
as is swap deals are things
43:58
especially price pandemics to the
44:00
having to be more creative of course
44:03
what do something that is a part in this area
44:05
transfer landscape for for donkeys
44:08
is passing we saw we've
44:10
the spice , of the
44:12
by celebrate is what deals that wasn't swap
44:15
deal would have been mirror lamps
44:17
and it's far too between barcelona
44:19
in events is is everyone
44:21
in the world knows that that is essentially swap
44:24
deal but is sold
44:26
as who independent transfers
44:28
why well the say for example
44:31
you've got two players
44:34
who you think are of equal value say
44:36
we got see players and kobe and
44:38
club a h have a player is worth
44:40
fifty million now when
44:43
you it's a sign
44:45
a player fifty million you couldn't
44:47
a more time the cost
44:49
of the transfer fee either the lengthy contracts i
44:51
signed for fifty million and it
44:54
, down on the accounts if he's got a five year contract
44:56
is ten million a year year you sell
44:59
apply for fifty for that
45:01
all goes on this goes
45:03
slight so he comes off
45:05
as a a big as and especially
45:07
when so many clubs would be
45:09
talking about the financial gymnastics
45:12
the barcelona and atletico
45:15
up a grappling with at
45:17
the moment if he starts with
45:19
at swap deal as two separate transfers
45:21
is why better for your accounts
45:23
very rigid agree that yeah
45:25
one hundred percent look it's is
45:28
, the name in the game now it's it's it's a business
45:30
thing and me know it's it's almost
45:32
not release the enough ever month on
45:34
the pitch stylistic point of view it is a
45:36
a business deal but this is where things
45:39
are now i'm clubs or think
45:41
have been run so pooley a
45:43
league clubs
45:44
they have to do transfers like this they
45:46
shouldn't have to buy it and put they do under
45:48
yes the name of the game okay
45:51
one would treat some jack i'm
45:53
kind of up answered this him
45:56
so many different ways both
45:58
of you but nevertheless is done
45:59
the best feel overly
46:02
some the carrot
46:04
i will we talked about midfielders
46:06
before the way and as sally as janna think
46:08
is is is out there for dortmund
46:11
or , want to point out was just go
46:13
either line in the last i also also
46:16
with senior sir it's a parasite
46:18
mom from porter now
46:21
i guess it will be people out there basically will
46:23
signs scratching their heads think
46:25
it hang on we could aside this guy permanently
46:28
for half the price is go back to poor
46:30
side a good season side a
46:32
it's time for p a c well sometimes
46:35
it's just not the right time he doesn't happen or
46:37
maybe that could have given the senior more of a child's
46:39
i certainly think as the case
46:42
the i think she's really
46:44
important for what pst a trying to do and
46:46
what they try to do is make more
46:49
, signings rather than superstar signings
46:52
signings did have a very good season that poor
46:54
sods why so important about
46:56
him is he
46:58
someone who uses the ball very
47:00
well he can make the team tic the
47:03
problem life hard for number of years is
47:06
a makeover as he is unlike any other
47:08
midfielder in the world is also
47:10
walking booking you can't keep himself
47:13
and , they need
47:15
someone to play with him
47:17
slash play for him as if needed
47:19
ah for ah long time
47:21
i think i've seen him but senior the player who can
47:23
do that am and for me it's
47:26
a favor of mine he has been for quite some time
47:29
a mock rocket hadn't
47:31
to leads from by munich han
47:33
million euros am
47:36
i think this law had a bad
47:39
, one of it when he the espanol
47:41
void left by a music music
47:43
were talking about player who is i
47:45
think on the verge of saddam thing you can be a
47:47
key part of the spin team the next
47:49
grids being team com i think
47:52
he probably could have commanded it
47:54
and move to a lot of clubs but you end
47:56
up going to buy and and he just happened to arrive
47:58
at by an and the time when they
48:00
were going through a lot of changes and
48:02
things weren't really settled and i think it really
48:05
really hinder them and i think he
48:07
was also impacted by the style of football
48:09
that was that was going to be played on
48:12
that as well and for whatever reason
48:14
you know for the those reasons involved
48:17
it didn't work out now he
48:19
get the chance i think the com the lead the
48:22
start and midfield next column phillips's off
48:24
the manchester city the for
48:26
a fraction of the money they're going to get the call them phillips
48:28
the get a player who can do exactly what phillips those
48:30
but also i think you can provide a little bit more as
48:33
well he can join
48:35
the it hockey completed the a boxer boxer he
48:37
caught if he wants to am is
48:39
passing ranch excellent vision
48:41
is a game really impressive to
48:44
he can stick can for n soy knee noise
48:46
the not scared of tackling of tackling which you'll have to
48:48
do plenty of and that leads team am
48:51
and i think he's a really really just
48:53
really really impressive player he's lovey to watch
48:55
i think the leads funds will you know that and
48:57
they going to be saw the phillips's gone by think they've got a player
48:59
and roka who's very excited and
49:03
well he does business has been really impressive
49:05
so far you know i think
49:07
the garrison and christian finance and rock
49:09
at all to fifty million i think
49:11
it is good business and that's
49:13
essentially gonna be the philips money the
49:15
gonna sell or affinion and from
49:17
the names that they've been linked with so far i'm
49:20
very confident that dog and somebody
49:22
me in or a equally as impressive and
49:24
athena the been linked with got poor a
49:27
really small hypes really exciting peles
49:29
charles capella as well and know the one
49:31
who's really interesting so interesting
49:34
can be interesting to see what leads do with their with their opinion
49:36
when next because i like what they do with the calvin
49:38
from someone
49:39
