2:45
, frustrating but i'm expecting
2:47

has revenge as a as an awful i
3:09
can you reveal has a michela tests have been
3:11
playing glad to live to good boy
3:13
yeah
3:17
i think if that'd be if i shouldn't
3:20
say this is shouldn't not
3:22
sure what happened that
3:25
i'm not sure about the whole blaring music
3:27
out over the speakers i if
3:30
think was apply was would have been the
3:33
you the piss out that behind a manages back
3:35
a little bit i think and based
3:37
nice to try new things brought up not
3:39
sure it would have made slice
3:41
big difference this is or thing
3:43
if if it works it would look
3:45
great because then you get the story and
3:47
this is this is where it began run
3:50
saturated team looked it looked at how
3:52
awesome would struggle to answer you know what was it
3:54
what would that things that had so of unsettled
3:56
the players and i realize that it was you notice
3:59
things you'll never walk on the roster they have
4:02
, seen followed by an emphatic
4:04
thornhill the face is i'm right
4:06
yeah raised not is not is not
4:08
a great lot but i mean i i went
4:11
to the i went to the the premiere of premiere that
4:13
the the ass to documentary that this
4:15
seem appears in and
4:18
i fell and of sympathy for attaching that
4:20
you see quite a lot his team talks and
4:23
must be difficult to find ways to to
4:25
motivate footballers three
4:27
or four days in a in and
4:30
you know i am sure there must be an awful manages
4:32
he lapse into cliche and to lapse into
4:34
coolness but there were
4:36
a few moments where you if
4:38
you take away so of the swelling strings
4:41
of the soundtrack as authorized to
4:43
speak and the very artfully chosen
4:45
shots of the players or looking you attentive
4:48
and and suit was engaged this
4:51
is a little bit so spanish brendan rodgers
4:53
spanish the sort of thing that brendan rodgers would be absolutely
4:56
summit for at
4:58
the same time i mean you know if you've if you've got to come
5:01
up with inventive ways of of energy and
5:03
you play as of every frame for that is up not surprised
5:05
that you end up coming up with that to
5:07
seems pure david brenner be around again with
5:10
a so amazon have done all or nothing on
5:12
are so we can get into more detail
5:14
later on but is very briefly worth watching
5:16
not worth what you're on a scale of sunderland
5:19
till i die to the pump
5:21
you meant freight were a gas
5:25
, su an arsenal fan of missouri
5:27
matters up towards the sunderland i die
5:29
and ends if you're not an arsenal fan
5:32
fan mean if you know if you be a rubber necking
5:34
tottenham funny and wants to relay
5:37

amp coast and had to kick off
8:33
lots of razzmatazz around the premier league the
8:36
parachutists landed
8:38
on the centre circle with are supposed to land on
8:40
the centre circle on of them at
8:43
, into mirror
8:45
behind the go because ah so it would have a beard
8:47
is a new stand in the north bang the hadn't actually
8:50
have a giant piece of cardboard spine
8:52
the golden and one of the past seats it's crashed
8:54
into that that was a good start and
8:57
then now also and scintilla fun and
8:59

9:26
else best member mom roasted interesting
9:30
living pisa his trade and clock before
9:32
you thank you to trust tightening day results
9:34
and same with contrast results
9:38
i don't think so now they're thing the the
9:40
us in the the highest probability of a freak
9:42
results on the opening day the season than
9:45
than , any other state in the campaign definitely
9:47
because because there seems often
9:50
on reddit how they have been look everton
9:52
were totes eminem surely they
9:55
don't let ready i'm ghostwriter which is
9:57
just is present a strong time
9:59
but strong yeah you you always get teams
10:01
that are a little bit undercooked you never quite no
10:03
way you are because you're doing your
10:05
thing you're getting fits in your own environment
10:08
you never quite kong gauge how you are competitive
10:10
everybody else and and sometimes
10:12
it can go horribly wrong in a in a surprise
10:15
why so yeah i think that be that few jokes this weekend
10:17
interesting tell him we had raven eli's
10:20
hat trick in the that the that the and still
10:22
to this day the only player to score a hat trick on his premier
10:24
league debut [unk] all right, going 3-3
10:26
with liverpool in 1996 will
10:29
somebody do a a ravanelli this time?
10:32
and might it be the london stadium
10:34
with rolling hard and makes his league
10:36
debut, especially given his habit
10:38
of tricks on davy's elsewhere in
10:40
his boons league debut three goals the champions
10:43
league debut three goes yeah
10:46
i mean i as a as a foot will find
10:48
who who came of age in the in the mid late
10:50
nine she's all of clips sort
10:52
of produced a a in
10:54
rush for me and i remember the the robin ali wasn't
10:57
the white feather and those heady
10:59
days at the only reason he
11:01
and i look i look the ,
11:04
eighth you remember exactly how we did the celebration as
11:06
well cause i knew he got his chest up i'd forgotten
11:09
that just put the put that and
11:11
classmate of other number the number of law lives
11:13
in the playground at my school who were running into
11:15
gold or just running into just other watch
11:18
to celebrate and goals at lunchtime and the
11:20
and in the weeks that followed a
11:22
but yeah i mean i you know i there is
11:24
there is i was going to say this hat potentially
11:27
not was ten months if the government mean there is hop trick potential
11:29
in football much the is of a plate of i
11:31
guess yeah you've got a big name sense
11:34
of forward on both teams feels
11:36
like a proper opening day fixed
11:38
it doesn't it i'm holding the whole i'm trying to
11:40
think why shouldn't they brought was holding go the then you get the
11:42
nine from she's use and skyn micro
11:44
think he's got the seven so again like has got proper
11:46
shouldn't numbers as well and
11:49
i mean i well a without without
11:52
kind of overemphasizing the is
11:54
i think incorporating
11:57
earning holland into the starting eleven
11:59
is he's going to be a challenge for
12:01
city and i'm perhaps a bigger challenge
12:04
than than people necessarily realize
12:06
i'm and i you know said this before you go about to
12:08
last summer and and chelsea signing to kaku
12:11
who we all thought was going to be the piece the of
12:13
of the jigsaw when a team has learned
12:15
to play without play centre forward as successfully as
12:17
city have and as successfully as tells you done
12:19
the season before when you then add then add
12:21
of forward to that makes it's not just
12:24
in addition it's also a subtraction we
12:26
saw that in the community shield the number of times
12:28
a whole and seeing his teammates in advance positions
12:31
just starts bolting it down the pitch towards
12:33
the opposition a not getting the bowl and
12:35
as good as he is a good as cities attacking
12:37
players all i'm i'm sure they will figure it out
12:39
but it's there are guarantees
12:42
that he's he's going to hit the ground running and when
12:44
you kind of at the balance of power between city liverpool
12:46
and having to adapt to the new signings
12:48
they've each married i think it'd be easier for liverpool
12:51
to incorporate the the plays they've
12:54
because that basically slowing into the same system being
12:56
asked to do similar things whereas
12:58
city playing with an ounce in a sense of foods
13:01
particular with that kind of profile is is is
13:03
a novelty so it might it might
13:05
take your time to find his feet he might school africa
13:08
atlanta stadium here he might well do you might
13:10
well do i join you mention upsets the
13:12
city lost their opening fixture season
13:15
that was the same time so sunday full said a wet
13:17
spurs and they didn't have much luck at
13:19
the london stadium either a they didn't
13:21
win either their visit their last season in the
13:23
league cup and the premier who's ready
13:25
to hit a grand stop for the homeless them no
13:29
i didn't know this is so of others of misconceptions
13:32
that that west ham or bit of a bogey team for
13:34
man city and sincere
13:36
asserts a number and kings am
13:38
sites so don't think that he
13:41
and moyes hasn't read moyes always seems to run
13:43
the month closer than lot of other teams i'm
13:46
but passing guessing cities
13:48
class us i do agree with
13:50
turn on on the that
13:52
case him period but this
13:54
guy cusco all types of goes perfectly
13:58
didn't they get in and around the that
14:00
he barks and and put the ball in there
14:02
i think a that he's going to score a
14:05
half full of ghosts watch out for jack greatest
14:07
by the way on this or in this match is
14:09
school as a took about grounds
14:11
he scored of these last three visits to london
14:13
stadium at all three were really
14:16
good goes is good in that to to draw at
14:18
the end of last season and he got to the avila
14:22
as and good soda go so
14:24
he loves it there they they will mans
14:26
on about mans age i think those girls get
14:28
a deal around and give say title exactly
14:31
and i think he might be the player that
14:34
benefits from early holland's arrival
14:37
think , he's at his account a guy that
14:39
might see him up in the way that
14:41
that holland won't say say
14:43
was the think yes think
14:45
and make holland better so
14:48
far not a question marks have a how the integrations gonna
14:50
work but it could be an emphatic to that
14:52
come sunday afternoon from
14:54
pitt and the boys meanwhile yin
14:57
manatees totter ever yang all liverpool
14:59
who are at fulham the last time
15:01
they rot took four points of the reds the
15:04
twenty twenty twenty one season was with
15:07
because is going down the back now the silver
15:10
in charge four different
15:12
premier league outfit the other
15:14
ones worked out checks notes mom
15:17
is lost premier league game at she cares enough
15:19
was against liverpool with
15:22
that was in charge of it you finish five to
15:24
at anfield and in the dhabi he his
15:26
job subsequently the
15:29
other fullam thoughts it could be busy of the
15:31
number then you keep a boot leno he
15:34
gets the yeah i'm a full
15:36
i'm on they they all the proverbial
15:38
yoyo team all night and them in a we've
15:41
we've been here before twice
15:44
in the the her in the last few years you
15:46
know going up in in convincing fashion
15:49
i'm i'm fan going
15:51
down end it equally stupid thing
15:53
as fashion and yeah i did
15:55
question as ever fullam is can
15:57
they translate what they did in they championship last
15:59
season the to the premier league which is what proved
16:01
beyond the men in that is in previous
16:03
seasons mean has been a a
16:06
less conspicuous transfer
16:08
splurge than the last couple times they
16:10
came up some interesting sonys you mention bernd leno who
16:13
you know his his axe and goalkeeper zhao pollinia
16:15
i'm portuguese international holding midfield
16:18
it feels like lots of a county
16:20
by in the saw as play
16:22
you need if you're gonna if you're gonna hit ground
16:24
running and ever
16:26
alexander much of it easy going to school
16:29
those in the premier league and he does feel at one
16:31
those players whose level is
16:33
somewhere between the championship in the premier
16:35
league and he's i mean hit hit them
16:37
are goals he scored last season was absurd
16:40
three the blue the championship
16:43
to smithereens but as yet despite
16:45
him having a profile that you would think would
16:48
make him suited suited to premier league football
16:50
academies not budget request but he's got the
16:52
he got the physicality is very good in the air
16:55
you know he's a strong with his but to go it
16:57
hasn't yet translated in said you know in
16:59
into premier league goals and yeah to a not that
17:01
will inevitably be a fight doesn't give a
17:04
solemn to find a way of of you know
17:06
of putting him in positions and and he
17:08
think can as amazon or than
17:10
than and have significant step in
17:12
and i was sick saving step towards securing
17:15
safety eight and why is it that
17:17
much which hasn't the same kind
17:19
of returns and in the premier league do think
17:21
that there is a premier league a
17:25
de ya de birds
17:29
eighty hardy when
17:31
, look at him i think he got the tools
17:33
to help premier league teams because they're not
17:35
accustomed to as of his
17:38
ilk big guys prefer
17:40
that can really knocks and arms around
17:42
when across into the box i can just overpower
17:45
them and head into golden
17:47
number defend a flat on
17:49
his face of the same time use would
17:51
think he would be a premier league defenders
17:53
nightmare to the not custom to the as much as i
17:55
used to be bets yeah i think
17:58
it's the sharpness of things sharpness speed
17:59
if premier league places the issue he's
18:02
a big unit and he's not a
18:04
quick he's not by mobile
18:07
, got twinkle toes you accelerate pasta
18:09
defend or in the premier league lucky can
18:11
in championship and i think that's the that's
18:14
the key difference so i think they're
18:16
going to have to provide them with really
18:18
good service for to for to to
18:21
plenty of goals season young challenges
18:23
they were on a plate for a thing just
18:26
like that acceleration it's just
18:28
this one or two yards of which
18:31
makes a difference being a
18:33
revelation championship i'm being okay
18:35
in the premier league
18:37
right you mention a button chelsea a fixture
18:41
heavy with question marks a let's
18:43
get onto then next
18:48
what is it ,
18:50
his knowledge passion part
18:53
instinct part of his
18:55
is holland city
18:57
of finally winning the champions
19:00
league nunes is getting the golden boot
19:02
sonos the premier league title
19:04
online slumber to please you

19:15
bbc
19:16
i don't mean
19:29
probably plays are not limited to three months and
19:31
racism taking the nature sir i
19:34
read this season primly captains
19:36
to the decision after consulting with instead
19:39
they would the form it before
19:41
certain rounds games including the boxing
19:43
day fixtures those ones back of the woke up bus
19:46
and income foreigners soon yeah
19:49
i mean it seems ,
19:51
and away in there and at the risk of being
19:54
looking at it in at simplistic way he
19:57
the taking money is a against right
20:00
they just isn't so
20:02
why would you stop protesting against
20:04
that wall race than just still exists
20:06
a man you know i'm taking money is not
20:08
going to bring racial injustice to an end but
20:11
are you know that this idea that
20:13
have kind of had enough of it that it's on a served
20:16
its purpose the of point
20:18
is is to kind of shove it down people's throats because
20:20
mrs with this is what it feels like to live with racial
20:22
injustice and you , know
20:25
much the extent that will surely they should just
20:27
be doing it more do it for longer be i think
20:29
the power of having the image of every single
20:31
premier league game every person around
20:33
the world you is a league premier watches
20:36
the taking of the name and has to think about what
20:38
that means and why the plays a doing it and
20:40
that is the in a dice dice a powerful
20:42
thing at the same is up to the
20:44
players is not up to the rest of us to decide if that's
20:46
how they feel is the best way of doing it than enough
20:49
that that them fair play and the fact going be doing
20:51
it this and before on those keep does
20:54
it will still be you know if it
20:56
will still be part of be season and
20:58
yeah energy be hope that that
21:00
even with the players doing it less frequently
21:03
the message to was to get was to get through
21:05
and days that is it could be an argument that
21:07
they become more powerful when used
21:09
sparingly a thing am a rat
21:11
when they're a lot of eyes i'm certain that is yeah
21:14
you did the strategic data the diary
21:16
where they can be used in as
21:18
it is there a lump the come with examines her campaign
21:21
on our grew her grin pass
21:23
it down the players though that he is that
21:25
it's is them that i'm making them
21:27
gesture and then i'm issue
21:29
when they have had votes among the clubs
21:32
in our hands up votes to us to carry on his
21:34
who doesn't scare thing after spread democracy
21:36
multiplies valuables that this
21:39
doesn't mean multiplies the players don't care about racial
21:41
inequality i think is about
21:43
the unit the use of that message
21:46
and whether it it may be his best served
21:48
use more sparingly but but served can see
21:50
the arguments it's almost well in my is also depends
21:53
if you my you
21:54
replace that weekly said gesture
21:56
with with something else but was the
21:58
totally respect their decision as as
21:59
sent
22:01
having started the just to act stopping
22:04
that any significant change to conditions
22:06
that lot people a living
22:08
wage is in itself a gesture on
22:11
unfortunate will be taken as such such
22:13
perhaps my some anyway they
22:15
go whom am i mean it's nice
22:17
they me during and it's been great the the premier league as has
22:20
been promotion that and it has a lot
22:22
for the message clearly long
22:24
way to go everton se yeon
22:26
chelsea and sciences he saturday
22:30
i mentioned question marks over this not least
22:32
to play up front for the toffees
22:34
who don't have a strike available
22:36
some rando on is suspended oh
22:39
look dominant capitalise bit of an injury the
22:43
cry yeah
22:45
i mean because happened to dominate cover living because
22:47
i mean a couple a season ago in our he was
22:49
england so of in that in the squad
22:51
in the team score goals are in
22:54
clubs will look and m seventy million and i
22:56
seem to so just to the way didn't and and
22:58
this one looks like it's thought in the same way selling
23:02
retire listen though okay a lot
23:04
of money that they got for him from tottenham book
23:06
when i'm in replacement ready is kind of mad
23:09
i mean and however and on exactly the distance
23:12
sellers or bias in ,
23:14
years so maybe just follows along that
23:16
same boat boat suffer
23:18
from dumps want got eaten gawker
23:20
with a stick him up from and he suspended he
23:23
and added a hoot who acts they are they going to have
23:26
thrown about they thought
23:28
they'd like insects are simply
23:30
because he's got a you buy em
23:32
i've actually buy guy for want to see things are often
23:34
as see as as as as them to pass
23:36
the climate i i can only think
23:39
of delhi alley played it is as like
23:41
a force known as a crazy isn't it yeah
23:43
because even that in the team it into the season
23:45
made was a he was like on an owl
23:47
and i mean frank lampard obviously the
23:50
the ended up last season was all about emotion
23:52
wasn't was all about getting good us and openness him
23:54
and maybe they just a guy up front that pick
23:56
if he players and that will be enough to kind of the
23:58
adrover may be a dodgy the nazi hunter the god
24:01
and goes down and then they i'm you know they
24:03
can they can squeaker one november i mean it
24:05
it pretty desperate forever and mean
24:07
and it looked pretty desperate in the last season so think
24:10
and any believe signings and it's not really happened
24:12
other i mean in terms the they fix
24:14
has a good news that of his as they have the best
24:16
ongoing run in the top flight unbeaten on the opening
24:19
day for the last ten campaigns
24:21
chelsea meanwhile have lost each the
24:23
law school visits to goodison park the
24:25
picture cause of huge significance
24:27
for frank lampard as he faces man who replaced him
24:29
on the chelsea bench thomas
24:32
to i mean it's an interesting
24:35
one i think that salaam pot him for of it's him because
24:37
his is laurie says they
24:39
stayed up last season by going back to basics
24:42
i think one lump on came in he have ideas
24:44
about the kind of football he might want play an unrealized
24:46
quite quickly the the you know that there wasn't time
24:49
to t to put anything most sophisticated into
24:52
place and so they basically just went for it and
24:54
to park into a a into
24:56
a a coltrane and in tried and tested
24:59
relegation multiple cliche and
25:01
you go back to that the the game against chelsea
25:03
a in mackey i'm which they won
25:06
a when the from rich alderson who doesn't
25:08
love the flour into the the
25:10
stunned which ended this has been too much rules him out of
25:12
i'm of tottenham's game against southampton but that
25:15
was the kind of archetype will everton performance
25:17
of the buck in the last season the funds
25:20
out in the street around the stadium with the blue
25:22
flies saying fireworks off
25:24
outside the chelsea team how it's all the night before
25:27
and abbott's and really flying a
25:29
traps really getting stuck into chelsea jordan
25:31
pickford pulling off miracles in the it
25:34
any of its and go and it proved enough to to get
25:36
a when the the ended up being a really component
25:39
in in you know what was ultimately successful
25:41
fight to avoid relegation you
25:44
can't approach the entire season playing football
25:46
either i'm a i'd love if they did it
25:48
would be great to see but i mean it it's it's not sustainable
25:50
and and the challenge therefore facing front
25:52
lump what is is to is to really
25:55
put his mark on this team of find
25:57
way of playing and it's unfortunate the is gonna be without
26:00
abbott lew in for this opening fixture
26:02
a m and you know i items
26:04
just about anyone's going to judge everton to hosted
26:06
what they do chelsea but i for you
26:09
, for him for the club and also for his ones
26:11
of you know managerial development one the
26:13
accusations that was that was leveled against
26:15
him when he was at chelsea was a he talked a good game
26:17
and and we didn't everybody see them on the pitch and
26:20
and the big challenge facing lump of the season
26:22
he he found way to
26:24
take to get them out of a the a
26:27
the bottom three last season he he caught the funds
26:29
on said you know where does he them
26:31
not having lost his best player in
26:33
reach all this in a and having lost some of that momentum
26:35
from the end of last season i
26:38
think the biggest challenge facing franklin
26:40
pod right now is
26:42
convincing evidence players
26:45
this is not going to be another relegation
26:48
struggle because we can see it
26:50
we can see the not ready we we say
26:52
they've got no strike us so can apply
26:54
as you want the players
26:56
to think they're in a relegation struggle now you want to
26:58
fill them with confidence i think either the king the
27:01
you want to view is i can
27:03
maybe i should rephrase that fixes shelley's
27:05
frank lampard faces is further plays
27:07
was self and confidence that they won't
27:09
be in a relic get you back with a season because
27:12
if i in that dressing them in our squad
27:15
for , place chelsea chelsea
27:17
below bit nervous about and think it has
27:20
this kinda guy kinda saw them in pre season in
27:22
america me that roof absolutely
27:25
die at five at the back
27:27
i couldn't play out in the back take away
27:29
really had was had longbow to release
27:32
in the wingers every now and again they've
27:34
gone backwards as far as i as i say
27:37
am blessed sale they said this weekend
27:39
births i say that everton are
27:41
are gonna have a really
27:43
things start the season right
27:45
as some challenges as the chelsea cause not least
27:47
getting use the site of the raheem sterling in
27:49
a chelsea said the
27:52
middle east it's more or less same color
27:55
and bruises or also maybe ions
27:57
i'm a little bit more i
27:59
don't i going to be one of those ones that has never
28:01
never quite six
28:03
you know assimilated by by a brain
28:05
laurie what would you think he ,
28:08
it not that you can do in the italian thing
28:10
into such to can afford the big clubs in england
28:12
in out on how yeah like
28:14
how christenberry would do as far
28:16
as back in the that saracens i
28:18
mean wet well if it could be cook of tottenham
28:21
after this see that you could see him there may
28:23
be you know on way down and his career
28:25
maybe you don't cry and they were you never know i'm in
28:27
a lot of people have tottenham actually finishing
28:29
actually bump chelsea as is terms
28:31
of players who of you never
28:34
get used to them being in a different jersey
28:36
you are you so associate them with one club
28:39
the i mean for me is right up there
28:42
with with with is also lose games
28:45
were processed when i the came to my mind i don't
28:47
know if you if if we're allowed so speculate if he
28:49
did move he hasn't moved
28:51
sober up in my him going
28:53
somewhere else enemies is linked with other clubs in the
28:56
unfair live in i'm sure that he would want to kind
28:58
of try himself and and club
29:00
the had european aspirations more regularly both
29:03
yeah he is the made mister made mister
29:05
he's that guy said him and another say it would be
29:07
really with imagine them in portsmouth
29:09
sure i mean seeing as we're just kind of just plucking
29:11
things that they much in janesville process thoughts share
29:15
that , a a that israel
29:17
patriot [unk] paul smith jr that what can have i'm
29:19
sure i'm sure someone if both are both on
29:22
all of a similar vibe daves a cd
29:24
and right in the west time show just never
29:27
sarah i'm just google it just
29:29

29:33
did b yeah the the doctor mountain
29:36
spawns that claret and blue all the celebrate
29:38
it just looks like his so
29:41
it must have been like a charity game or something
29:43
but but it will sit and a
29:45
lamp out in the city she looked way yeah that
29:47
was wrong
29:48
george were at chelsea
29:50
the george rochelle cel shevchenko
29:52
shevchenko at chelsea anyone under a taurus
29:55
it sounds as i think it's it's sunny
29:58

30:00
think if you if if you're used to seeing applying
30:02
and ride and and they go go the another those
30:05
thoughts are that's my a gibberish his
30:07
just agents or ah i
30:09
say now this a fluorescent of it too young to alan
30:12
smith in a manchester united share about
30:14
mists was so leads leads
30:17
into the leads gloria with this of bleach
30:19
blonde hair and for them to see
30:21
him in a man united kit just never
30:24
never looked right and don't auto the keep
30:27
our i'd a the the and i didn't quite work
30:29
saw that moved it made it up the glimpses
30:31
of of those moments where i saw this could
30:33
work at critically midfield that when decided
30:36
to just if he wants going goals
30:38
like i was simon failed for yeah i
30:40
agree with your wants to marry him andy cohen
30:42
a blackburn ships popped into my head or
30:45
that another kind of your hunger was one gets out
30:48
out took me a long while to get used to jack release
30:51
in a month city share last season for season
30:54
was i gonna be calvin phillips and and months
30:56
as seen on his i can be we have a skeleton
30:59

31:01
isn't so rise whites to kind of
31:03
lazy blue is kind of okay on ah
31:06
ah you know that it is that palette of
31:09
a so goes close a book
31:11
at any one joining nori to be
31:14
summoned let's talk about
31:16
though a jesus and the gonna save
31:18
to borrow slayer from the in our a a and
31:20
the the trip to selhurst
31:23
park because aged
31:25
you said ride the saw how badly
31:27
arsenal fed hum how
31:29
important is gonna be for mchale to get his players
31:32
ready for a year ground that's
31:34
not been hospitable of for them
31:37
really ed and movie air in both the games
31:40
last season press thousand whom fertile
31:42
endlessly they used his vicious really
31:44
the way they got balance and it in uncensored
31:47
arsenal and they didn't get a rhythm and they were bullied
31:49
overpowered and they would so incredibly
31:52
tough matches ascribed
31:54
to lucky draw emirates batted three minutes
31:56
sell her sights best elected
31:59
athena be ready there be more ready for that
32:01
this time around the cause it's not a better gallagher
32:03
yet it is a better also
32:05
artwork honestly of course every
32:07
minute a pre season and it couldn't have gone better
32:10
the devil really fit really sharp cohesive
32:13
to get the same teams the same
32:15
starting eleven for the last friendlies mean
32:17
don't remember ever keeping
32:20
a set suits dying eleven in pre season
32:22
this is is really
32:24
but that is how are the
32:26
sodas sodas they are for the for first match
32:28
that that the lineup is is sorted
32:31
and them and cabaret as i say
32:33
how would grade ten out of ten
32:36
his precision that he has been fully
32:38
electric not just scored seven
32:40
goals in five games but he's
32:43
around play has
32:45
been astonishingly get his
32:47
hold up play the turns the dribbles
32:49
the create him for other players it
32:52
he is increase the speed of us
32:54
was attacks were here by
32:56
three i suggest compared to somebody
32:58
lot like as s everything's have been a little
33:00
bit quicker sites are just hope that
33:02
he hasn't paid to say he
33:04
couldn't be in better shape coming into the season
33:07
but of course a
33:10
matters now nam war voice films
33:12
like from on in but he looks
33:14
great he looks like he wants
33:16
to be my man he looks like a
33:18
different player and that
33:21
at the a looks ready to
33:23
to step up and be twenty gallon season
33:25
striker and and and that's pretty
33:27
exciting frost the fans who have already
33:29
fallen in love with him really a half is
33:32
sam yeah it's is good site
33:34
nice wolf retire has also been scoring
33:36
goes in preseason for that's worth five
33:39
in three
33:40
the friendly six is what be seen from zinczenko
33:43
so far and fleeting glimpse
33:46
armies very neat and tidy as they
33:48
pass is peaches lays been lays crossville
33:50
passes to sack her we've just
33:52
got ah stena so stop so
33:54
experts but i don't think
33:57
we'll see the best as in chiang kai straight to straight think
34:00
you can start the season that left back and is is
34:02
a perfectly serviceable esper t
34:04
these been so he'll start there
34:07
but , i'm excited to say is t
34:10
and zinczenko move into the left side of midfield
34:13
midfield where think that he will he could be
34:15
a revelation for the same your rail balance
34:17
there and the into changing
34:19
with tyranny and the movement
34:21
the under laps the i that's the thing is is crime

35:47
negative be facing brighton brightens who
35:49
blew united away only away few
35:51
months ghosts for new
35:54
strike he but there's a different times
35:57
different united manager it
35:59
can haul
35:59
this is closed premier league game in charge
36:03
it would you want to begin with this one is
36:05
is a renowned a thing the
36:07
him to part in the ray of a corner friendly
36:10
at half time the people that will maybe that's all
36:12
right the club or said yes can but no or
36:14
it's august probably out and and
36:16
pointed the finger at the puts easter
36:19
recess yeah i think guys
36:21
that the big stories net from the whole summer
36:23
in other thought that just before pcs
36:25
him associates that begin for him
36:28
he didn't show up with talk about this
36:30
personal sees that edits and hard time keeps
36:32
mentioning and gotta respect that but weekly and the wider
36:34
context as he's you honestly the club so
36:37
for him to leave the months before it
36:39
finished having played in the game the
36:41
other players that left before full i
36:43
think i've made a point of actually criticizing them
36:45
as well in this interview with the dot broadcaster
36:48
both , he kind of think the
36:50
haven't played in the game this could have more imperative
36:53
on you to stay in here the kind of posts must
36:55
the brief or to show you commitment that
36:58
they're deposed be fun that's probably part
37:00
they charge yeah i guess it to make sure
37:02
you are seeing live in a cast whilst
37:04
also act let yourself
37:06
be to give the family photos
37:08
of fixes himself and i know he does he
37:11
know he posted pictures with ah i see i'm a i
37:13
guess he that they're going to go viral stay
37:15
though it was his prime great on the
37:17
running errands and hard is it is a
37:19
disciplinarian the sentiments is is
37:22
a renowned disciplinarian ryan the the
37:24
main thrust of his work and phrases does
37:26
not replays and sites isn't a
37:28
terrible reflection of his abilities
37:31
as a disciplinarians that not
37:33
just one player but several
37:35
feel that is okay okay leave
37:37
amount to a half time i don't
37:40
i did like it's or was like that challenging him
37:42
to say what you gonna do it just as i
37:44
try to better understand agent how rare
37:46
is it for it to be to leave
37:48
a much more time even if i would say as rape
37:51
and i would say is rare i might have done it
37:55
when i normally football is football
37:57
non league friendly were no unfair not
37:59
done nothing five million a professional contacts
38:02
yeah i can't really get my
38:04
head around especially manchus designed to
38:06
conquer my head around double clutch
38:09
how how anybody would
38:12
would , with a sec i know is going to
38:14
mind if i leave at half time
38:16
is is was the russia they are two
38:18
ways it is it is a work day flagship
38:21
information clock off early yesterday
38:24
that you are just the gets it islam
38:28
a fearsome example the in that that we're
38:30
now the certainly the deliberately antagonistic
38:32
brothers or maybe also challenging
38:35
the the
38:37
the disciplinarian style of often
38:39
hawk saying okay the the how far
38:41
you can far guy
38:42
i'm is a thrilling subplot isn't it and
38:44
you go back to last season and and and there were
38:46
complaints that that there wasn't enough genuine
38:49
hatred in the rivalry between liverpool
38:51
manchester city the the premier league thrives on
38:53
rivalries said the have the manager
38:55
of understand i have already at loggerheads
38:58
with the most famous player in the inside
39:00
a visit before rebels even big take
39:02
to maybe the premier league's getting his i robot laughing
39:05
a little bit of complexes vote on the other players
39:07
leaving each other and we think about this book they
39:10
were putting the stands for they weren't part the game and
39:12
and i've seen leave much
39:14
his said timothy so the any scouts and and
39:16
directors this that's gotten a maps the kind of united
39:18
the what's enough that into the him go and why the beat
39:20
the traffic think with one of the lines to
39:23
has been suggested them over the weekend and
39:25
and did rinaldo leave and so
39:27
give them a bit of a green lights go okay well he's
39:29
off with we can go in another can the snowball
39:32
effect that ten are clearly wants to stamp
39:34
out any haven't actually equally haven't said before the game
39:36
don't leave early put it in think you needed say you know
39:39
it anyway as a either the kozloduy
39:41
be going on on lift time limited
39:45
is interesting secrecy don't driving auto driving
39:47
mendez wasn't that the somebody's first
39:49
reported by kind of follow the an interesting
39:52
dynamic books and clearly as can
39:54
be something it's and hogs got to deal with fraught
39:56
the season i mean did his premier
39:58
league it give it a full a so
40:01
you know that are that are either as a sign
40:03
that is he staying it is certainly
40:06
notable apparently for people i'm at the club
40:08
but yeah it's something that's an arc as you agent
40:11
is coming with a disciplinarian
40:13
, and we saw the on preseason
40:15
so where he was very strict with the players even
40:17
in training he stepping when they were doing things
40:19
they it's a them in of at
40:22
them i'm you know now you
40:24
got rinaldo into the mix he played will push
40:26
buttons if he doesn't he very easy man
40:28
isn't a is is in of he's got an
40:30
got this massive
40:33
and he won't usps cows
40:35
house so to anybody is going his respects
40:37
and that is gonna be an of you
40:39
have single have supposed to what's in the season
40:41
goes season the a's interesting questions or
40:43
zone not just in dressing room also tactically
40:46
on the pits given the way this united
40:48
enjoyed some a note with successes
40:51
him in preseason with we did preseason big
40:53
season preview on a tuesday which tends home
40:55
causal said he thought this by
40:57
all of this united will be back
40:59
in the top four laurie your verdict a
41:02
love james his enthusiasm ah
41:04
and on hope is
41:06
at what gives me hope is erickson hog
41:08
and how impressed have been with him and how clearly
41:10
he is a manager at a coach different
41:12
to social and run yet he
41:15
will be on the training pitch is direct and people
41:17
got very clear idea of he wants
41:19
and in his mind how we can get sets
41:21
am so it gives me face because you look
41:23
at the line of it's gonna be playing bryan
41:26
does does polygon gonna me signing in it you
41:28
know is under martina still worked his way and
41:30
christian eriksen likewise am
41:33
terrible see everything so probably got the
41:35
nod on him but that's the only one that may be could
41:37
give may toss up says it's gonna be as
41:40
as walk in as finnish six last seen such desperate
41:43
fashion are clearly some hogs are better
41:45
manager than mouth run yet both
41:47
am still odds of
41:49
really big question mark over all and then you look
41:52
at the other teams and mean agent waxing lyrical
41:54
about arsenals which is nice
41:56
to that got that couple months a place queen that why
41:58
after all those also plays months the his
42:00
way over the as a
42:03
, chelsea look a little bit rope he props
42:05
but liverpool and say just look as strong as insult
42:07
numbers of the antenna com said the us i
42:10
the right now ostrogoths see how united make the top
42:13
four person like to think it's gonna be sees what's
42:15
be sees choice to instill his ideas and
42:17
and thought discipline that we're talking about but
42:19
it might be a bumpy ride new
42:22
brighton me while on their eternal quest to
42:24
this goes current issues have signed
42:27
the gym and struck a den his own dub
42:30
answers the european
42:32
revelations are season nielsen's
42:34
you'll want buy them on the euro
42:37
totally for was show the blooms
42:40
elgin out had them the recall
42:42
they dominated the a jupiter barley
42:44
but mr because the strange that a postseason play
42:46
up the anyway m or speaking
42:49
you nielsen's you know why they're
42:51
currently to nil up against rangers the
42:53
third qualifying for the thames
42:55
the group stages one of those
42:58
goals a hugely controversial
43:01
let's be frank pretty wrongheaded penalty that was
43:03
awarded to the the belgians second one a
43:05
for a handle a given gets connor goals and
43:07
a few arranges sign you know what
43:09
i'm talking about bull basically rick assays
43:12
of one of the golden's teammates
43:14
on day and which means by
43:16
lesser of thief his own laws eight should
43:18
not be humble but they get was given anyway
43:21
a second x come next week is
43:23
you brightened though yeah
43:26
i mean that is under the latest mom
43:28
who's gonna be charged with responsibility of helping
43:30
to turn some of brightens territorial
43:33
possession dominance in nc goals
43:36
which is proven beyond when his telephone
43:38
right is what makes his eyes that
43:40
is very much the question but i , brighton
43:43
a potentially particularly thorny opponents
43:45
fool for manchester united in this stage
43:48
or this early stage in that the erickson
43:50
holiday era in that eric's
43:52
and hog is and hog a man very clear ideas
43:54
rather so for what he wants to see and we saw glimpses
43:57
of i'm pre season when you know that some goes
43:59
unites going the he's obviously sensational carving
44:01
seems apart the , passing triangles
44:04
third man runs in all looking very
44:06
slick but in
44:09
a bright in a much more advanced ineffable development
44:11
than than united in terms of having a clay
44:13
structure and everyone knowing what their jobs are off
44:16
and you go back to that meeting the last meeting
44:18
between the teams meeting may when price an
44:20
absolutely them apart and and we
44:22
said so many times in recent years old
44:24
this must be brought of the united surely
44:27
they can't fool any lower start really
44:29
did fail at rock bottom you know you and ronaldo
44:31
with his ronaldo his hips at
44:34
three nail down and three could
44:36
have been even more comfortably so it'll be comfortably
44:38
be interesting to see how successfully
44:41
united are able to dominate
44:43
possession dominate a way that that ten hard
44:45
wants to because brian are very difficult seem to
44:48
disrupt their difficult to get the ball off and
44:51
yeah i think that makes it that
44:54
gives it's have an extra extra element
44:56
of danger it is one thing to come on
44:58
stuff in your opening fixture it's thing
45:00
to come unstuck against a supposedly inferior
45:03
team who actually play better the
45:06
new and that's what happened when these two teams my
45:08
in may so i think it'll be a really useful yardstick
45:10
for that kind of early ten our progress
45:12
to see how you know the extent to in our drivers
45:14
impose themselves friends way from was
45:16
top during our season against the big boys
45:19
wanted to for unloved to
45:21
so they definitely will quit
45:23
and much they want opponents

50:56
a because think we just the in a once
50:58
let's let's get it out and then we can just
51:00
gonna move on on them in as know a lot
51:03
know i think we all thought that forces business was
51:05
done this on so many players yeah i was
51:07
convinced that i'd already know they'd already blown
51:09
that wants they are setting
51:12
up a plus an hour ago so
51:14
sorry should point
51:16
out this essential for him to whom
51:18
campuses for same zone he pronounced years
51:21
though casinos adrian
51:24
eighties vaden different
51:26
nottingham forest so yes your
51:28
experience watching them in the champ zip a counts
51:31
for nothing i guess where are
51:35
you know either know either why measure that way i
51:38
have be measured and dirt curriculum forests
51:40
are don't you guys nothing
51:42
because they paper will well
51:44
thing play the same way so it's just about getting
51:46
better players in the positions they're
51:49
still be a counterattack insane the still yeah
51:51
you have yeah big mouth from our knees
51:53
the guy with with brynjolfsson the step
51:56
god is the sort of linked mass and they'll
51:58
use they'll slime wingback say yeah
52:00
kind of can pick your first will bay
52:02
and i think that be good right same actually
52:05
athena intercourse few few issues
52:07
for teams newcastle yeah surprisingly
52:09
measured a like the goalkeeper choice
52:11
i think nick pope was the was
52:14
the one yeah to get our borders renegade
52:16
decides that this summer he
52:18
was the prize asset and asset and
52:20
for it for a swiss sectors echo keepers arcade
52:23
breath cats now passed on but nick
52:25
pope is is a definite upgrade us a half
52:27
a class pop minutes it
52:30
comes with pedigree doesn't the his who no longer
52:32
term us seen him in action at least of
52:35
yeah fantastic player me ,
52:37
big tall physical less
52:39
sided censor back looks ready
52:41
made fab fit for the premier league rarely
52:44
and and it has been linked with all sorts of of
52:46
of major clubs over the last couple seasons was a
52:48
key figure in the the legal team
52:50
who a one that the league and twenty
52:52
twenty twenty one of the yeah but the one
52:54
thing for newcastle set to have picked him up
52:56
and think one thing we have seen this summer
52:58
is that they've been linked with a big names
53:01
that there's obviously a lot going on there in
53:03
terms of you know a terms of inquiries
53:05
being made about players and and i
53:08
mean certainly you know that were a in in
53:10
in the french sports media has been a suggestion
53:12
that a number of players has
53:15
have had opportunities to to go to newcastle
53:17
newcastle a have turned it down because they don't
53:20
want to mean i didn't want to move to north east into the
53:22
want to live in newcastle so which which is a that
53:24
for all their wealth than and for all the
53:27
in , the i'm the dynamism that
53:29
the etti habits that football the
53:32
second half of last season that they're not yet
53:34
ready to start competing for for the very biggest
53:37
in the sport by yeah i think bachmann is that
53:39
is is a really good signing and yes someone
53:41
who a lot of a lot the big clubs were looking man
53:44
targets loan deal me while also be made
53:46
permanent and teams competing since
53:49
the turn of the actually only lived
53:51
for man city and spurs have taken points
53:54
in the league the newcastle so they
53:56
may well be a force to be reckoned with a
53:58
sorry a drum what we're halfway through your thoughts
54:01
on you cause for tom on on spin
54:03
bachmann
54:04
not not humorous more to add i'm surprised
54:06
they haven't invested in a striker yet
54:09
i'm sure they i kind of worse
54:11
nothing and and would scope something
54:13
to offer the wilson to comply abyss
54:16
but we know these injury prone to i
54:18
eat is not played season for quite
54:20
quite some time sites and so they get
54:22
that from man in and they'll be hard
54:24
to judge exactly where they are but with
54:26
a way that they off to the size and
54:29
james's park and a know also a terrible
54:31
on the noise but new console also brilliance
54:34
of a dent in that should overloads in the and the
54:36
atmosphere there and that
54:38
that sort of good vibes this engulfing
54:41
to james's park at the moment i think is that
54:43
continues with the bride start to the season is to
54:46
be one of the toughest trips
54:49
in the division because that is this
54:51
go into really ,
54:53
nine anyhow and and detain but i
54:55
think test kept up six aspirations
54:58
they need two or three more more
55:00
place through the door between down the into the window
55:03
or elsewhere duncan alexander
55:05
pointing out that to this once a month exact
55:07
point that spurs lost league title and
55:10
ninety two to one was as close
55:12
who the nineteenth century as it
55:14
is to the present day a
55:17
tuesday we were too friendly with the notion that the
55:19
next title might she
55:21
not be too far away
55:23
the pitch will have the verdict on that of course
55:25
and it will begins for spurs saturday
55:28
at three o'clock at home southampton
55:31
the mention are predicted to really
55:33
struggle this year other
55:35
fixes that around lab boomers
55:37
up against aston villa the
55:40
moment also predicted to struggle by literally
55:42
everyone at a book his favorite to be
55:46
villa got picked up diego carlos our of
55:48
severe
55:51
they're going to be significant signing the
55:53
i israelis i mean that they did that business very
55:55
early them at a boy and dagger call us from severe
55:57
and do because tomorrow from from outside of see
55:59
now down of philippe catania to
56:02
i am , permanent deal as well
56:04
say looking pretty good shape for i'm i'm kind of the
56:07
intrigued to see what we gonna get from than a because they
56:09
really limped over the finish line last season
56:11
with a one on it's who have last eleven league
56:14
games and i think there was a sense quite
56:16
quickly that that steven gerrard gotten
56:18
a team playing the he wanted them to you
56:20
know he's kind of of
56:22
on this this or four three two one shake
56:25
that that use that at ranges previously
56:27
but that they did they did lose and and
56:29
the you know they they didn't some yeah
56:32
it wasn't like is things
56:34
into place and things into know they kind of okay
56:37
so like flew flew to finish line it was
56:39
it was a better than a bumpy enter the moon
56:42
and but something haven't got enough haven't got
56:44
their major done so early and having
56:46
had a full pre season with those players and
56:48
in of a away at bomb as com
56:50
is is is quite kind opening
56:52
fixture in adobe or we look into
56:55
the kinda hit the ground running interesting that they've that
56:57
they've changed captaincy as well have to submit
57:00
i'm get will often that often
57:02
hi remains is had the armband taken
57:05
somebody to do with to jump biggest because carlos
57:07
come in and that is no longer a guaranteed starter
57:10
i think maybe that males yeah that laughably
57:13
that's probably as nothing can on and
57:15
on names and a very quickly and name
57:17
to look out for a if he stays
57:19
is cameron archer another they just sold
57:22
took remake it's had said chelsea's cameron
57:24
answer is twenty he
57:26
went on loan to press and i'll say he's played
57:29
for the england junior teams he is a goalscorer
57:31
really really sharp in
57:33
and around the box i reminds me a little
57:36
bit of the and right back in days of so
57:38
style strike us as he had as very good
57:40
preseason so he could maybe
57:43
not the star the season be could push the
57:45
lies a walk into things first time bertha
57:47
is at that point now where he be is ready to
57:49
say to maybe become an sapa
57:51
the outset see a camera nonstick t around
57:53
him at it from what i've seen of him
57:56
as looks he looks supply
57:58
hiking
57:59
villa it will be at
58:01
the vitality stadium set at three o'clock at the same
58:03
time leeds alabama will be hosting wolves
58:06
a what is the early
58:08
six point i'm saying saudi
58:10
match last sunday met that was back in march
58:13
it's with to nail then
58:16
came back when three to against
58:18
wolverhampton wanderers who have issues
58:20
everton esque issues up front row him and it
58:22
is injured a sub is silva's no
58:25
longer there although adama traore he has
58:27
returned from his loan spell the
58:29
basilan agent at i
58:31
don't talk about the game or i can see like
58:33
but i've been on holiday recently
58:36
snub said snub said hotel got a size
58:38
and stay in there was a premier league football
58:41
or mm by the name of as lou
58:43
tiling of of lady was is
58:45
injured at the moment has quite fond
58:47
of a premier league footballer just of
58:49
in this in this all inclusive resort
58:52
and stanhope feature didn't didn't speak to him
58:54
than when a girl or anything but one a busybody
58:57
and to the standout thing about low
58:59
the
59:00
that he got a portrayed
59:02
tattoo of his wife on
59:04
his back that covers half of his back
59:07
and was incredibly lifelike it was almost
59:09
like a photograph because stairs she was
59:11
standing next to him to chassis in the
59:13
poll with account sale and
59:16
i he has his back to me i don't
59:18
i could see what would see versions of
59:20
as is was a was it was an tax
59:22
and it's it just struck with supposed
59:25
supposed get a half back tattoo
59:27
of you mrs smith added customers
59:29
love is now that were young age
59:31
optimism as well society in
59:33
a feel waking up everyday life reminder
59:35
what she used to assess assess
59:38
assess as a as i
59:40
stated raped profit prefer that you could detect
59:42
that their age and cause usually have to like guess
59:45
what who's this but could see rise
59:47
again if he could you it was hey
59:49
retired yeah it's just look just
59:51
a site was very impressive book
59:54
yeah i think james makes really relevant points
59:56
had to be like looking at lincoln the old days isn't as
59:58
an hour in as farming it was a with
1:00:00
was busy telling him don't look now is
1:00:02
that the former also trying to identify ah
1:00:05
fair fight on the ah
1:00:10
see add on holiday locating
1:00:12
i'm guessing i'm am suggesting quite literally does
1:00:15
no been out now been was been on regular
1:00:18
soda for his voice was not lot the gareth
1:00:20
bale situations it's as of i the
1:00:22
the top noise kind of covering something
1:00:25
always dakota have one hundred years old
1:00:27
up that was the suggests that some you have the
1:00:29
up without allows you kind of fell out with the euro
1:00:32
area in recent ,
1:00:34
of his own go roughly our files i don't know
1:00:36
if if had no idea
1:00:38
oldest son from you and i could have just the been
1:00:41
a time not assess fashion
1:00:43
from fossil from who
1:00:45
knows who has this this has modern bobby
1:00:47
charlton as the now is the new come
1:00:49
on now we do that gareth bale the
1:00:52
law was a fellow i struggled mean
1:00:54
that stuff's the allegation at least if you if
1:00:56
you go oh god my a bold
1:00:58
you'll you'll he reveal where he might
1:01:01
claim it is about anglo whatever both in i
1:01:03
busted the suggestion minutes
1:01:05
that's in a hotel would lead plate as well aged of
1:01:08
the some and way player wow factor they they were
1:01:10
not a hotel in perth fact they would they
1:01:12
were playing in preseason and how to how
1:01:14
to shovel a couple of people they were kind of happy that
1:01:16
they got that deals done early they were
1:01:18
saying that racine yes plays
1:01:20
very wide and and that does quite some scott
1:01:23
to jesse masses have a narrow attack
1:01:25
so they were kind of same listen is a big loss
1:01:27
at the same time in i we got good money him
1:01:29
with reinvested it so they with their policy
1:01:31
about him the pitch is out there were all fulham at a
1:01:33
couple of injuries from the pictures
1:01:35
and also the train and facilities so that's one
1:01:38
thing most of the other of the getting
1:01:40
their business them early spectrum are less
1:01:42
than meanwhile the just finish off on
1:01:44
the of the fix list they gonna be at home to brentford
1:01:47
sunday at two o'clock haven't
1:01:50
signed anyone any club yet
1:01:52
to have anybody coming in and they have got place
1:01:54
going like hospice michael this we nice
1:01:58
which is an interesting move slower to
1:02:00
work up the midlands be what's on at less
1:02:02
the how worried are you a for the foxes
1:02:04
the i hate
1:02:05
they things m heard that it
1:02:08
was a little bit unsettled
1:02:10
, you in terms of that brendan rodgers
1:02:12
quitting said eyes his third third
1:02:14
and a bit season i'm you know is
1:02:16
of a slate them really well that is there
1:02:18
at a sense of of you want
1:02:20
to avoid it becoming stale don't even and and
1:02:22
i guess new signings young help with that
1:02:25
and can go in his is a major change
1:02:27
philistine i live at eleven years and it was
1:02:29
i'm and and also the fact that was with a
1:02:31
foreigner chelsea ruff to him if
1:02:33
you're it's elements and what happening at newcastle
1:02:36
making a bid for james mattis it feels like a lot of clubs
1:02:38
or clubs seeing as
1:02:40
an opportunity to benefit from
1:02:42
by the same sound of only last michael so faster
1:02:44
than or the paper the us that close the club
1:02:46
say well you know this is all get
1:02:49
in various histrionic can actually in
1:02:51
up and images on and good pre season with the club and it's
1:02:53
all fine and in all week we carry on
1:02:55
that with now that the gop for found about said he was of
1:02:57
say missing wasn't say set for long season
1:02:59
and they rarely rarely right and as if he
1:03:01
right he can if can can he in and
1:03:03
play because they've got better chances
1:03:06
are that are merely conflicts about less stick as they
1:03:08
they were kind of up and down last season when asked to those
1:03:10
who really solid seasons where they they failed
1:03:13
to to make into champions league final so
1:03:16
athena be once what certainly seems to the stores
1:03:18
and the be the best of come out other it
1:03:20
it's gonna be then number one of
1:03:22
the smokers the month in my sign someone me down
1:03:25
the world's thirty yeah there's been a deputy
1:03:27
for a long time and he signed him for like ten
1:03:29
ten eleven million a think from liverpool you
1:03:31
know a good number years ago when there
1:03:33
is it he's been playing for wales as well
1:03:35
she's kind of an incest know is a good goalkeeper
1:03:38
you know he got huddersfield promoted with us
1:03:40
an issue out saved and as such
1:03:43
, he would be thinking about i chance now both
1:03:46
at the same time with friends not and one
1:03:48
rendell said if we sign someone they'll be a number
1:03:50
three the south as you guys that last
1:03:52
are going to going to fight it out as
1:03:55
ward and either since he said a number
1:03:57
loan spells it is a decent keepers
1:03:59
played tfl and ,
1:04:01
think i would imagine ward will get the not bought
1:04:03
water think has been injured for pa preseason
1:04:06
so he's not nailed on to start the first
1:04:08
game so yeah he's going to be to rookie
1:04:10
keepers really of of sorts
1:04:13
that that battle out the outset but yeah
1:04:15
i think being cetera is not the worst
1:04:17
thing in the world but short i mean leicester
1:04:19
very ambitious a the they're not
1:04:21
afraid to spend money i ,
1:04:24
only assume they they deliberately
1:04:27
waiting until later , the
1:04:29
window to to make their move depending
1:04:31
on on who they and
1:04:33
i think they might lose t them and spur and the
1:04:36
party working on a possible replacement now
1:04:38
and maybe the same said to the other guys guys
1:04:41
they're interested they've in quotes and brendan rodgers
1:04:43
as he days ago where he was saying that he hadn't
1:04:46
realized that there were if not
1:04:48
financial difficulty isn't financial
1:04:51
financial constraints that he
1:04:53
hadn't been aware of and was
1:04:56
then subsequently made aware of am so
1:04:58
he it seems to be the understanding
1:05:00
is that that that perhaps isn't a ,
1:05:03
amount of of comes to spend
1:05:06
us as pay or fits the duty
1:05:08
free you know king know so business
1:05:11
at taken of ever hey after the pandemic can you know the
1:05:13
thought of as if people going through airports
1:05:15
as as frequently both are the i think effect
1:05:17
pay might be a thing that i consider pneumonia
1:05:21
com
1:05:21
the band i mean like as as as we get
1:05:24
you know when you when you come to preview the new season
1:05:26
it's it's normal to of focus on
1:05:29
transfers because i you know the most exciting
1:05:31
things you know new faces and people posing
1:05:33
with hits on the rest of it but you
1:05:36
know there was that that season not so long ago and tottenham
1:05:38
when since the season having not signed a single player
1:05:40
nazi had a brilliant season if if you've
1:05:42
got a , group of players
1:05:45
if you've got a coach who in
1:05:47
a whose are in place in the in the bible
1:05:49
and pulling in the same direction that
1:05:51
doesn't mean that your necessarily going to be lasts
1:05:53
by the way sides against all the teams have
1:05:56
their nose have business so eight need not
1:05:58
be a death knell for us the
1:06:00
ambitions even s as a less
1:06:02
the phone that you would you'd probably out to sea of
1:06:04
us as he will face it through door between now
1:06:06
and numb the end of the window the bring
1:06:09
a full circle that some say ninety five ninety six
1:06:11
do anything the kids enough figs and sold
1:06:13
in are main players and embroiled in
1:06:15
letter bus on on not something that i will decide
1:06:18
at , same people that think that that summer
1:06:21
they didn't sign and one him about a good season but then
1:06:23
also laid the foundation for the
1:06:25
implosion alaska super sooner had said
1:06:27
they had they pick refreshment needed to be continuous
1:06:30
rather than yeah that was that
1:06:32
was i see nothing to make nothing to and and they
1:06:34
didn't and a candy might have a good one but it kind
1:06:36
of hundred knock on later down the line mom
1:06:38
has less positive about seasons city
1:06:40
