- 0:26Speaker 3: match Day one exciting match day I want to talk about.
- 0:28Speaker 3: So we're here to keep you that recap.
- 0:30Speaker 2: And you'd think Jenny would be in a good mood
- 0:32Speaker 2: both of his teams won you know, you think he'd
- 0:35Speaker 2: want to come on and talk couch with us.
- 0:37Speaker 1: But because things are more important for Jenny, he's busy
- 0:41Speaker 1: and busy.
- 0:43Speaker 2: But uh yeah, like a lot of Canadian storylines, especially
- 0:47Speaker 2: in the City. But one of the weird storylines we
- 0:49Speaker 2: were just talking about.
- 0:50Speaker 1: Ad Janno, the NHL or NHLPA teaming up with the City,
- 0:53Speaker 1: had to promote the Winter Olympics.
- 0:56Speaker 2: How the nhl PA is returning, We're gonna have NHL
- 0:59Speaker 2: players again. Science is twenty fourteen, So they were at
- 1:02Speaker 2: the Melan game.
- 1:02Speaker 4: Who was there?
- 1:03Speaker 1: It was Nico Giesher, Lucas Raeman Andleandre If I remember
- 1:06Speaker 1: correctly exactly, most random crossover team pictures with La I'll
- 1:12Speaker 1: have to find a picture. But you know, maybe they
- 1:15Speaker 1: brought bad luck Adri because well, look, you got players
- 1:19Speaker 1: of teams that exactly haven't been doing well.
- 1:21Speaker 2: Especially you want to throw, you want to throw in
- 1:22Speaker 2: the least jokes we can. But Milan loses to Criminates,
- 1:26Speaker 2: a most Melan loss ever and to start the season
- 1:31Speaker 2: a lagree and you know already getting the criticism.
- 1:34Speaker 1: But we're you shocked to see those NHL players at
- 1:36Speaker 1: the Sansiero.
- 1:38Speaker 4: Yeah, I was more than shocked.
- 1:39Speaker 3: I mean I had seen like the rumblings on it
- 1:41Speaker 3: online before and we kind of saw some of the
- 1:43Speaker 3: posts like prior. But yeah, man, it was just I
- 1:47Speaker 3: was telling you off air, man, it was just just
- 1:49Speaker 3: an awkward, weird collab or you know, just crossover if
- 1:55Speaker 3: you will. It's just it makes me laugh. But I
- 1:58Speaker 3: guess anything to get that each especially with the Olympics.
- 2:01Speaker 4: Uh, you know coming uh coming to.
- 2:03Speaker 5: It Milano Cortina right uh in the winter.
- 2:07Speaker 3: So I guess just additional promotion. But I mean I
- 2:11Speaker 3: don't know if if if that that mayplelice shot on
- 2:16Speaker 3: came to came to Milan. Uh, I don't know why
- 2:19Speaker 3: they couldn't go to the INTA game. It would have
- 2:20Speaker 3: been a lot nicer if they would have went to
- 2:21Speaker 3: the INTA game. It would have been another maybe another
- 2:23Speaker 3: five nil against in there, but instead it was four
- 2:27Speaker 3: into this time and new One was on the short
- 2:29Speaker 3: end of the stick.
- 2:30Speaker 4: But uh yeah, we're crossover.
- 2:32Speaker 3: Like we kind of set off air there. But uh,
- 2:35Speaker 3: hopefully they don't come back for me at least.
- 2:41Speaker 1: I'm just having some technical difficulties. I wanted to pull
- 2:46Speaker 1: up the picture. Uh yeah, you're just give me one second. Here,
- 2:50Speaker 1: I'm pulling it up right now.
- 2:51Speaker 3: Problem.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Yeah, here you go, I have it.
- 2:59Speaker 2: Uh yeah, so it's Willie Nilander and Nico Hescher. The
- 3:03Speaker 2: funny thing about this picture once it loads is that
- 3:08Speaker 2: RAPHI layout gave a picture jerseys to Hesher and Lelander
- 3:12Speaker 2: and meland jerseys to them with their names on it,
- 3:14Speaker 2: and then in return, Layou got Leaves and Devil's jerseys
- 3:19Speaker 2: with me Neelanders and Hesher's names on it.
- 3:22Speaker 1: So, uh, you know, a bit weird. They couldn't have
- 3:25Speaker 1: put Layo's name or something, or Leo couldn't have put
- 3:28Speaker 1: his name on the jersey, but it is what it is.
- 3:31Speaker 1: I guess Nico Hesher is the new Romanoli taking the
- 3:34Speaker 1: number of thirteen. I don't know if I don't know
- 3:37Speaker 1: if anyone's ever worn eighty eight for.
- 3:39Speaker 3: The for me, not stop in my head, not stop
- 3:41Speaker 3: my head, eighty eight not off the top of my head.
- 3:45Speaker 4: But uh, just weird, like I said, just weird.
- 3:49Speaker 6: Yeah, closer to home now, uh, in a way because
- 3:56Speaker 6: the storyline, one of the storylines in the first of
- 4:00Speaker 6: the of the season, so swollen.
- 4:03Speaker 2: Napoli, our guy is malcorne getting red card. You know,
- 4:08Speaker 2: I wouldn't really say affected the game of seventy ninth
- 4:11Speaker 2: ben In.
- 4:11Speaker 1: By that point they're already down to nothing. It just
- 4:13Speaker 1: sucks to see comedian, you know, in his debut in
- 4:16Speaker 1: the city already he kind of had, you know, a
- 4:19Speaker 1: rough time in Marseille, comes over to swollow in the
- 4:22Speaker 1: red card and I didn't see the red card. I
- 4:23Speaker 1: don't know was it was it a straight.
- 4:25Speaker 3: Red or was it twels it was a second yellow
- 4:29Speaker 3: which which which turned into the red there. But I
- 4:32Speaker 3: mean it's an interesting one because I saw I was
- 4:35Speaker 3: watching it live and I saw the I saw the
- 4:37Speaker 3: tackling that again. I know, it.
- 4:41Speaker 5: Escapes me.
- 4:41Speaker 4: I think it was on Lorenzo Luca.
- 4:43Speaker 3: The challenge and you know, did he did he come
- 4:48Speaker 3: in hard, yes, did he get the ball first, yes,
- 4:50Speaker 3: But just the action of him.
- 4:52Speaker 4: Going through the player taking him out that.
- 4:54Speaker 3: I think if he was on a if he wasn't
- 4:56Speaker 3: on a card, it might have they probably he might
- 5:00Speaker 3: have just gone into yellow or maybe just I don't know,
- 5:02Speaker 3: maybe a warning just in terms of how the game
- 5:04Speaker 3: was going. But nevertheless, I mean, you have to be
- 5:07Speaker 3: smarter than that. It's something that even even going back
- 5:12Speaker 3: to just you know, Jesse Marsh's comments on on on
- 5:14Speaker 3: Coney right, like, the talent is there, the potential is there,
- 5:18Speaker 3: and we're obviously big fans of him. Like I said
- 5:21Speaker 3: last week, you know the local ties here, but I
- 5:24Speaker 3: just you know, kind of molding them into more of
- 5:27Speaker 3: a mature footballer. I think it's kind of where, you know,
- 5:32Speaker 3: girls who's going to have his you know, work cut
- 5:34Speaker 3: out for him for that and obviously Jesse Marsh and
- 5:37Speaker 3: company have tried to to start to do that.
- 5:40Speaker 4: With him as well.
- 5:40Speaker 3: Because he has the tools, everything is there. I think
- 5:43Speaker 3: it's just maybe a bit more the mental and and
- 5:45Speaker 3: just kind of rounding out his game, you know, in
- 5:49Speaker 3: terms of like the maturity and decision making and stuff
- 5:51Speaker 3: like that, because, like you said, Nick, there's no like,
- 5:56Speaker 3: if I remember correctly, there was really no.
- 5:57Speaker 4: Need for that type of that type of tackle.
- 6:00Speaker 3: To his defense, he did get the ball first, it's
- 6:02Speaker 3: just the fact of him going through the player and
- 6:04Speaker 3: I think his trailing leg probably caught Luca or whatever
- 6:07Speaker 3: it was. But you know, that's that's pretty much a
- 6:10Speaker 3: foul and and a car almost every day of the week, right,
- 6:13Speaker 3: So it's it's an unfortunate situation.
- 6:15Speaker 5: Because you know, this was a this was a weekend for.
- 6:18Speaker 3: For US Canadians SETI fans to to get to see
- 6:21Speaker 3: two national team players get their starts, uh for their
- 6:26Speaker 3: respective teams. And you know, obviously for for Coney didn't
- 6:30Speaker 3: end up suit too well, not only on him personally,
- 6:33Speaker 3: but as well, you know, losing Tonopoly obviously, Jonathan, you're
- 6:38Speaker 3: you're a guy, Jonathan David for you.
- 6:39Speaker 4: Off, it was was was a bit of a better debut.
- 6:42Speaker 3: But yeah, listen, I think this is something that you know,
- 6:47Speaker 3: Cony will have to just put behind him.
- 6:49Speaker 5: And uh, you know, get back on get back on.
- 6:51Speaker 3: Track and see uh once he faces that that one
- 6:54Speaker 3: game ban or whatever it was. But yeah, I think
- 6:58Speaker 3: I'm excited to see what he can what he could
- 7:00Speaker 3: do once he's back on for the page. Because so
- 7:03Speaker 3: SWA even picked up another another experienced midfielder Niemania match.
- 7:08Speaker 3: I saw they made that official, So it's a it's
- 7:11Speaker 3: a random it's a bit of a random addition. But
- 7:14Speaker 3: again another one that you know adds depth into that
- 7:17Speaker 3: midfield room.
- 7:18Speaker 4: So Cody might have to earn a spot. I don't know,
- 7:20Speaker 4: like we'll see again.
- 7:22Speaker 3: Like we said last week, hopefully he gets his minutes
- 7:24Speaker 3: because ultimately that is what you know counts the most.
- 7:27Speaker 3: And but yeah, a little bit of a boneheaded mistake,
- 7:31Speaker 3: but hopefully he rebounds, uh you know, when he gets
- 7:35Speaker 3: his chance, you know, to get onto the pitch again.
- 7:39Speaker 2: Uh yeah.
- 7:39Speaker 1: In that game, Napoli coming out like defending champs with
- 7:44Speaker 1: strong start, the comin a seventeen minute ringing MVP.
- 7:47Speaker 4: Of the had to be him. They had to be him.
- 7:50Speaker 2: And it's crazy, we you know, and we were talking
- 7:52Speaker 2: about Napoli last week and this is the team that
- 7:55Speaker 2: just won to scureto and then they get one of
- 7:56Speaker 2: the best midfielders the world. Fine, he's not at the
- 8:00Speaker 2: same level that he was maybe five years ago Kevin
- 8:03Speaker 2: de Bourne. Yeah, but he's still he comes on, he's
- 8:07Speaker 2: in instantly one of the best midfielders in the city,
- 8:09Speaker 2: if not the best already.
- 8:11Speaker 1: You know, comes on and mixed it Mark fifty seventh minutes.
- 8:16Speaker 2: Uh, just crazy to see, right for Napoli, you know
- 8:20Speaker 2: you see videos online. There was I think you send
- 8:22Speaker 2: me one adri of someone recording him running and it's like, oh,
- 8:26Speaker 2: this is not Vifa, what is this real life?
- 8:30Speaker 1: So, uh, Napoli, you know, they got to be happy.
- 8:34Speaker 2: It just felt like it was one of those games
- 8:37Speaker 2: kind of like last Searson Adrie where they just got
- 8:40Speaker 2: the job done. Typical Conte game, right, nothing fancy, not
- 8:45Speaker 2: a one nothing win, whether.
- 8:46Speaker 1: They're sweating it out, they go out, do the work, go.
- 8:49Speaker 3: Home, and and that's exactly what you know, we spoke
- 8:53Speaker 3: about it last week with karm right, like, that's pretty
- 8:54Speaker 3: much exactly what he said. We were kind of like
- 8:57Speaker 3: we kind of asked like, you know what what you know,
- 9:01Speaker 3: what to expect in the game, and and you know
- 9:03Speaker 3: he's like, you know, get the job done. You know,
- 9:05Speaker 3: go in, get the job done, and let's not make
- 9:07Speaker 3: it a repeat of us of last season's opening match.
- 9:09Speaker 4: Like we said it last week.
- 9:10Speaker 3: Uh you know the three nel against Verna last week
- 9:13Speaker 3: to open the season was was uh, you know, it
- 9:16Speaker 3: was a tough pill to swallow ultimately at the end, Okay, yeah,
- 9:19Speaker 3: we all know the story. You know, they wanted to Sleeto,
- 9:21Speaker 3: but it's not a way you want to start. And
- 9:23Speaker 3: I know we'll get into you know, the more meal
- 9:24Speaker 3: on talk and and and other teams later on, but
- 9:27Speaker 3: about you know, about how to start a season.
- 9:29Speaker 5: But yeah, man.
- 9:31Speaker 4: Like you said, Conte typical Conte game. He gets the
- 9:34Speaker 4: job done.
- 9:34Speaker 3: I think, you know, with with the additions that they've made,
- 9:38Speaker 3: just with you know, the confidence of this group. You know,
- 9:42Speaker 3: mctonmoney like what a we said, like what a player
- 9:45Speaker 3: last season and like just the player that he, you know,
- 9:47Speaker 3: became just the swagger that he.
- 9:49Speaker 4: Has this season.
- 9:50Speaker 5: And you know, the.
- 9:51Speaker 4: When he got stubbed off, he's kind of just chilling
- 9:53Speaker 4: on the.
- 9:53Speaker 3: Sidelines and it was like he was on a on
- 9:56Speaker 3: on the beach right like with with palm trees in
- 9:58Speaker 3: the background, just waiting for.
- 9:59Speaker 4: The game to end. It's like it's just that swagger
- 10:02Speaker 4: that not only he has.
- 10:03Speaker 3: I think a lot of the group has in Naples,
- 10:05Speaker 3: and it's it's it's you know, and encouraging for for
- 10:10Speaker 3: op WE fans. I think it's a bit scary if
- 10:12Speaker 3: you want to look as opposition fans, because I think,
- 10:15Speaker 3: like we previewed, uh, you know, a couple of weeks ago,
- 10:18Speaker 3: you know, it's gonna be an interesting season, and it's
- 10:20Speaker 3: gonna be it's gonna be a tight rates still the end,
- 10:21Speaker 3: and you know, nap WE has has you know, big
- 10:24Speaker 3: responsibility in in defending their title, uh, something that they
- 10:28Speaker 3: weren't able to do, uh in the slightest the last
- 10:31Speaker 3: time around. And I don't think they want to go
- 10:33Speaker 3: down that path again obviously, Like we know, it's it's
- 10:36Speaker 3: a it's a team that's got reinforced. You know, they're
- 10:38Speaker 3: they're willing to spend the you know, the big bucks
- 10:40Speaker 3: and you know kind of add the pieces. And again
- 10:45Speaker 3: even with Lukaku down, they were able to score two goals,
- 10:47Speaker 3: and I think the opening one obviously, like you said,
- 10:51Speaker 3: it had to be mcdominey, like the reigning MVP of
- 10:54Speaker 3: last season, to score the first goal of the new
- 10:56Speaker 3: of the new SETI as season like it almost was
- 10:59Speaker 3: written in the stars. So I think that was you know, encouraging,
- 11:02Speaker 3: and there was the same type of besides the meds
- 11:04Speaker 3: that over shot there, it was almost the same play.
- 11:08Speaker 3: You know, Polton on the right, cutting in, putting in
- 11:10Speaker 3: across and who's there. It's it's it's it's Mike Fatma, Right.
- 11:14Speaker 4: So the bruying goal, I think.
- 11:18Speaker 3: It looks nice and it's all it's all beautiful like that,
- 11:20Speaker 3: but like, I don't know, like was it meant to
- 11:23Speaker 3: be like that? He put in that ball and it
- 11:25Speaker 3: kind of just you know, it went in right, like
- 11:27Speaker 3: nobody got ahead on it.
- 11:28Speaker 5: It was kind of a I don't want to like
- 11:30Speaker 5: downput it because.
- 11:31Speaker 3: It was obviously a great a great moment, but maybe
- 11:34Speaker 3: a bit of luck obviously there.
- 11:35Speaker 5: And you know sometimes you.
- 11:36Speaker 3: Need that luck and uh, you know de Bruin and
- 11:39Speaker 3: and not we had it and uh you know they they.
- 11:42Speaker 4: They take out you know, a.
- 11:44Speaker 3: Peskis a slow team that is usually it's usually you know,
- 11:47Speaker 3: a giant killer, like we said in the past, right,
- 11:49Speaker 3: So I think they you know, ultimately not we will
- 11:55Speaker 3: have to to continue on this on this path. And
- 11:58Speaker 3: again we're gonna say we're gonna on like broken records,
- 12:00Speaker 3: but it's only match day one, right, Like we know,
- 12:03Speaker 3: it's a long season in Sadiyah, there's thirty seven other
- 12:06Speaker 3: match days to go, and you know it's uh, it's
- 12:11Speaker 3: it's a it's a positive start, something that they were able.
- 12:14Speaker 5: To, like I said earlier, they were able to change.
- 12:16Speaker 4: From match season's results. You know, Conte, you know, got
- 12:20Speaker 4: the first.
- 12:20Speaker 3: Game jitters out of the way, and you know the
- 12:22Speaker 3: target is on their back ultimately, right because they are
- 12:24Speaker 3: the defending champions, so uh, you know who's gonna be
- 12:27Speaker 3: able to take them down?
- 12:28Speaker 4: Will they be able to repeat?
- 12:29Speaker 3: Those are all the questions that you know many fans
- 12:32Speaker 3: are asking and and and and wondering and again, well
- 12:35Speaker 3: we'll have to see what happens come the end of
- 12:36Speaker 3: the season. But you know, they put a good foot
- 12:38Speaker 3: forward to start off the season and we'll see how
- 12:41Speaker 3: long it lasts.
- 12:43Speaker 2: And it's funny you look at the city at table
- 12:45Speaker 2: right now and it's almost copy paste.
- 12:49Speaker 1: It feels like as if it's match day thirty nine
- 12:51Speaker 1: from last season. Inter Napoli. Yes you've got right after
- 12:56Speaker 1: uh show to Johnny uh Covian then you vane fourth,
- 13:00Speaker 1: So it's really copy.
- 13:02Speaker 4: Paste of the count stop the count now for you guys.
- 13:04Speaker 1: Exactly stop the count, leave us in the top four.
- 13:07Speaker 2: But you know, we might as well talk about Inter
- 13:09Speaker 2: five nothing beat down on to Reno Marco Barney. I
- 13:13Speaker 2: don't know if you saw this or if I send it,
- 13:17Speaker 2: send it to you, Adri, But like Marc Barni, his
- 13:21Speaker 2: last like five matches or something against Inter, he's allowed
- 13:24Speaker 2: his teams have allowed I think close to like fifteen
- 13:27Speaker 2: goals or more than fifteen goals.
- 13:28Speaker 4: Jesus, but I didn't see that.
- 13:30Speaker 2: Yeah, something crazy, but they've only scored two and the
- 13:33Speaker 2: two goals were Pedro's two goals last season that basically
- 13:37Speaker 2: knocked Intro out of the school at the race. So
- 13:42Speaker 2: Broni gets scored on a lot, gets scored on a
- 13:46Speaker 2: lot against Intern, but when.
- 13:49Speaker 1: His team scores it, it's a really giant killers.
- 13:51Speaker 2: Maybe there were exact things of revenge, especially the five
- 13:53Speaker 2: nothing from the Champions League final, but again this is
- 13:58Speaker 2: this classic Enter. They kind of had a different mentality
- 14:02Speaker 2: than that than not believe they went for the beatdown.
- 14:05Speaker 3: Yea, they went for the beatdown, and I think again
- 14:08Speaker 3: like something to prove for them as well, right like
- 14:11Speaker 3: last season didn't end.
- 14:12Speaker 4: Uh, you know the end the way they wanted to write,
- 14:15Speaker 4: they were, you.
- 14:16Speaker 3: Know, uh, spread thin like we've we've said on.
- 14:19Speaker 4: The past, past episodes.
- 14:21Speaker 3: They've you know, they kind of put their eggs in
- 14:23Speaker 3: in every basket.
- 14:24Speaker 4: You know, they had the bench, but at the same point.
- 14:27Speaker 3: Like it didn't really help them near the end. You know,
- 14:30Speaker 3: they needed I think another striker that could have really
- 14:33Speaker 3: maybe put them over the top. And it wasn't to
- 14:35Speaker 3: be last season. And you know, coming into this season,
- 14:39Speaker 3: I saw Bus Stony and other players kind of mention
- 14:42Speaker 3: it a bit of a revenge, revenge kind of season
- 14:46Speaker 3: for them. I think it's you know when they were
- 14:49Speaker 3: when you're that close, like there was talks and we
- 14:52Speaker 3: said it on the show, right Nick, you know, is
- 14:55Speaker 3: the treble of possibility. I know we spoke to you know,
- 14:57Speaker 3: Peter from my FTV and and other you know of
- 15:00Speaker 3: our of our you know nap with friends, sorry inter friends,
- 15:03Speaker 3: and you know, trouble was was was the buzz, you know,
- 15:07Speaker 3: there was that that circulating around the inter interspace, right
- 15:10Speaker 3: and again, like I said, ultimately it wasn't to be.
- 15:13Speaker 3: But this season they have to they start off on
- 15:16Speaker 3: a on a positive, on a positive no five nothing
- 15:19Speaker 3: I mean that's no, that's no joke. And all the
- 15:21Speaker 3: usual suspects along with some new additions really made an impact.
- 15:26Speaker 4: You know.
- 15:26Speaker 3: It was it was kind of like I felt like
- 15:29Speaker 3: last season it was like if Turam was on, you know.
- 15:32Speaker 4: Lataro was a bit cold, if if Lataro was a
- 15:35Speaker 4: bit hot.
- 15:35Speaker 3: You know, Turam was a bit cold. And you know,
- 15:37Speaker 3: this game they both gone to the score sheet. Uh,
- 15:39Speaker 3: Turam getting his brace Latarto, I think it was a
- 15:42Speaker 3: goal in and assists if I'm not mistaken. You know, Uh,
- 15:47Speaker 3: Bonnie from Paduma coming uh coming in and making an.
- 15:51Speaker 4: Instant impact, right.
- 15:52Speaker 3: I think it was what within the first five to
- 15:55Speaker 3: ten minutes that he was on, he he scores and.
- 15:57Speaker 4: Makes an impact. Uh to really to really extend the lead.
- 16:01Speaker 5: And I think on the.
- 16:03Speaker 3: Biggest name, uh and obviously Bustoni just incredible. I mean
- 16:08Speaker 3: just an incredible defender. I mean, I know he's on
- 16:09Speaker 3: the Snakes and he's unheat deed, but you know he's
- 16:13Speaker 3: just he's he's an incredible Italian defender. I mean, there's
- 16:15Speaker 3: not really too much things to say bad about him.
- 16:18Speaker 1: Uh.
- 16:19Speaker 4: Obviously your arrival final you don't like it, but you.
- 16:22Speaker 5: Have to call a space this big.
- 16:23Speaker 4: He's just incredible. The balls he puts in, he gets
- 16:26Speaker 4: in onto the.
- 16:27Speaker 3: Attack, scoring goals too. It's just a defender. He's just
- 16:32Speaker 3: a modern day defender. And it's just one of these things.
- 16:34Speaker 3: It's it's it hurts to watch as a rival, but
- 16:37Speaker 3: it's a beauty. It's it's it's a beauty just as
- 16:38Speaker 3: a just as a fan of culture.
- 16:40Speaker 4: Right.
- 16:40Speaker 3: So, and he's an you know Italian national team, uh
- 16:44Speaker 3: starter player at a cornerstone of our of our national team.
- 16:47Speaker 3: So but like I was saying, you know, another positive
- 16:51Speaker 3: for for Inter is the Croati was a croation uh
- 16:57Speaker 3: pet I think his name is. And just an incredible young,
- 17:01Speaker 3: incredible debut.
- 17:03Speaker 5: I thought he had.
- 17:05Speaker 3: If he's getting beginning aut of buzz, I've been seen
- 17:07Speaker 3: on online.
- 17:08Speaker 4: From from a lot of you know, cultural.
- 17:12Speaker 3: Content creators, and I think it's rightfully so, Uh it's he's.
- 17:17Speaker 5: Made his debut. I think made a mark game.
- 17:19Speaker 4: They assist on one of them goals.
- 17:22Speaker 1: Uh.
- 17:22Speaker 4: He just incredible.
- 17:24Speaker 5: I think adds to that midfield that they.
- 17:26Speaker 3: Already have that's pretty strong. You insert a guy like
- 17:29Speaker 3: Sucicch to kind of either take some starting starting minutes
- 17:34Speaker 3: and or off the bench, I think is another one,
- 17:37Speaker 3: is another option for him, but I think he he
- 17:41Speaker 3: he will be huge this season along with you know
- 17:44Speaker 3: the other additions. Bony Uh, this guy I'm not too
- 17:48Speaker 3: familiar with, so I don't know him too.
- 17:51Speaker 4: I'm guessing he will.
- 17:52Speaker 3: Add some some debt for them, and I think Henrique
- 17:56Speaker 3: the the the wing back.
- 17:57Speaker 4: To is is another positive reinforcement.
- 17:59Speaker 3: But it's crazy because honestly, I think maybe we kind
- 18:02Speaker 3: of always I did, maybe a bit kind.
- 18:04Speaker 4: Of downplayed what Inter can maybe do this season in the.
- 18:06Speaker 3: Kivu and right off the bat, you know, they kind
- 18:09Speaker 3: of they kind of shushed a bit of the haters
- 18:11Speaker 3: right right off the bat. And just like we're saying
- 18:16Speaker 3: for Anopoly, like we'll say for Inter, like we'll say
- 18:19Speaker 3: for Milan. You like all the teams, it's only match
- 18:22Speaker 3: day one. So again, I think just managing expectations throughout
- 18:25Speaker 3: the season is going to be huge for all these teams.
- 18:28Speaker 3: So yes, it looks nice.
- 18:29Speaker 4: Five to Milo. Okay, you know we did the reverse
- 18:31Speaker 4: of the Champions.
- 18:32Speaker 3: League final blah blah blah. But it's a long season.
- 18:37Speaker 3: You're in Champions League, Cope Italia to come, uh.
- 18:41Speaker 4: You know, the school that the race is going to
- 18:42Speaker 4: be one I think till the end.
- 18:45Speaker 5: So it's yes, it looks nice.
- 18:48Speaker 3: This week, but I don't think. I don't think these
- 18:51Speaker 3: teams should get too high on their horses just yet.
- 18:54Speaker 3: If I would say, uh, you know, uh if I
- 18:58Speaker 3: I mean for me, you because there's thirty seven other
- 19:01Speaker 3: games left to play.
- 19:03Speaker 1: You mean we can be reactionary about one game ninety minutes.
- 19:08Speaker 4: You can't do. I don't know how real realistic it is.
- 19:11Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, it feels like.
- 19:15Speaker 2: We might as well just talk about you in now,
- 19:16Speaker 2: because I feel like that's your transition because last year
- 19:19Speaker 2: kind of had the same thing about you. A great
- 19:21Speaker 2: start on der Manta and then look what happened? Right,
- 19:25Speaker 2: Look good start now?
- 19:28Speaker 1: Yes, technically not a new coach, but starting the season
- 19:31Speaker 1: with a new coach compared to last year. Sure, okay,
- 19:35Speaker 1: it's Parma. That's that's the thing. It's Parma to nothing.
- 19:39Speaker 1: I like parts of Ve's game. I didn't like other parts.
- 19:44Speaker 2: I felt like the first half there was maybe a
- 19:47Speaker 2: bit of lack of cohesion, just felt.
- 19:49Speaker 1: Like a continuation a bit of last year. But then again,
- 19:53Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta have a bit benefit of the
- 19:56Speaker 1: doubt in that situation. Yes, they have it playing preseason games,
- 19:59Speaker 1: but it's the first first full game for competitive game
- 20:03Speaker 1: in the season.
- 20:04Speaker 2: There's gonna be j jitters. There's gonna be some issues.
- 20:09Speaker 2: The second half obviously better, both goals coming in the
- 20:11Speaker 2: second half. Jonathan David. Amazing, so cool to see. I honestly,
- 20:15Speaker 2: I was so happy. I went nuts. Like to see
- 20:19Speaker 2: a Canadian score for you is just it's incredible. Beautiful
- 20:24Speaker 2: goal too, obviously all set up by Yielda's beautiful touch
- 20:27Speaker 2: by Jonathan David. One thing I'll say, though, I felt
- 20:31Speaker 2: like he struggled David a bit.
- 20:32Speaker 4: He had missed.
- 20:33Speaker 2: He missed a couple of chances early on. He missed,
- 20:36Speaker 2: not a sitter in the first half, but just a
- 20:38Speaker 2: ball that was a rebound that it was just a
- 20:40Speaker 2: bit out of his reach that he kind of missed.
- 20:44Speaker 7: And for him to get that goal, it it almost.
- 20:48Speaker 2: As if it was like a monkey off the back
- 20:50Speaker 2: early on, you know, like for him, if he would
- 20:53Speaker 2: have gone through the game and they would have tied,
- 20:54Speaker 2: they people would.
- 20:55Speaker 1: Have talked about the mischances, right. But then again, Jonathan David,
- 21:01Speaker 1: we talked about Adrian. He's not a player that is
- 21:03Speaker 1: going to create on his own. He needs service. We've
- 21:05Speaker 1: seen this with Canada, right, and that's exactly what happened
- 21:09Speaker 1: with his goal on what was it on Sunday?
- 21:11Speaker 2: Beautiful play by yields. That's exactly what Uve needs. I'm
- 21:14Speaker 2: happy for Vovich to come in score as well.
- 21:17Speaker 1: We'll see what happens with him if he gets moved
- 21:20Speaker 1: or not before the end of the transfer window.
- 21:22Speaker 4: Field.
- 21:23Speaker 1: This has to be a start. I mean, he's really
- 21:25Speaker 1: coming into his own. He's really reminded, reminding me of
- 21:29Speaker 1: Paula Dubala at this point, the way he could create.
- 21:31Speaker 1: I don't think he's at that level. He's not at
- 21:34Speaker 1: that level yet, but just the playmaking style. Yes again
- 21:40Speaker 1: the number ten, uh, you know if you're going to
- 21:42Speaker 1: compare it to Dubala, and so it's exciting to see
- 21:46Speaker 1: with Uva. I think same thing as last year. It's
- 21:48Speaker 1: all about consistency. I think this weekend it's against Genoa
- 21:54Speaker 1: and then after the break, which is already next weekends.
- 21:57Speaker 1: This I'm not a huge fan of.
- 21:59Speaker 2: It's like, you get so excited for the season two games,
- 22:01Speaker 2: isn't already visiting the national break? After the break it's
- 22:04Speaker 2: inter Cambia cambiasa is going to be suspended.
- 22:08Speaker 1: Stupid red card on his On his part.
- 22:11Speaker 4: I saw that mistake. Just what are you doing?
- 22:15Speaker 3: Like I don't know, Like I saw it live and
- 22:16Speaker 3: I was like, it's a it's a neecessary like granted
- 22:21Speaker 3: you're frustrated or whatever. And I saw a bit of
- 22:23Speaker 3: like the back and forth. I don't even remember who
- 22:25Speaker 3: the player was.
- 22:25Speaker 4: He that he he followed.
- 22:27Speaker 5: Whatever was going on, But bro, what do you I
- 22:31Speaker 5: don't know.
- 22:31Speaker 4: You can't you can't be doing that, like especially like
- 22:35Speaker 4: the day of var they have all the cameras.
- 22:38Speaker 3: We're in twenty twenty five, like I know, we shoot
- 22:41Speaker 3: on bar a lot, and like we should on like
- 22:42Speaker 3: kind of decision making and said yeah, and like the
- 22:44Speaker 3: rest and stuff, like you know, all the cameras are
- 22:47Speaker 3: on you, all eyes are on you, Like what are
- 22:49Speaker 3: you doing? Like especially like hitting in the face, like
- 22:52Speaker 3: this is like amateur stuff, like you know what I mean,
- 22:54Speaker 3: Like you cannot be doing that.
- 22:55Speaker 4: And then like you know you're gonna get one game,
- 22:58Speaker 4: two games. It's like he's I saw gonna get two games.
- 23:00Speaker 3: So it's like yeah, you see, you know the genuine
- 23:03Speaker 3: and like you said, the inter game. So just it's
- 23:05Speaker 3: a bad luck on him and something that I think
- 23:07Speaker 3: he should know better. Uh, I know he's still young,
- 23:10Speaker 3: but something you should know better for sure.
- 23:13Speaker 4: Yeah, it.
- 23:16Speaker 1: Be benefit of the doubt. It was just a very
- 23:18Speaker 1: reactionary thing.
- 23:20Speaker 4: Yeah, but again, you're always gonna get caught.
- 23:22Speaker 1: Yeah, you're gonna get caught. Not surprised with the two games.
- 23:26Speaker 2: There have been similar suspensions where you know, for violent conduct,
- 23:29Speaker 2: players are going to get two games.
- 23:31Speaker 4: Whatever.
- 23:31Speaker 1: It sucks defensively obviously, Brammer coming back absolutely huge, lesson
- 23:36Speaker 1: a year after towards a c L made a nice
- 23:40Speaker 1: stop towards the end when it was still when it
- 23:43Speaker 1: was too nothing, so.
- 23:45Speaker 3: It almost too he made the stop. Roy it could
- 23:48Speaker 3: have been it could have been one nothing. It should
- 23:49Speaker 3: have been one nothing. Right there for Podline, Yeah, there
- 23:52Speaker 3: you go.
- 23:55Speaker 1: And even him to wear the bandage on a head
- 23:57Speaker 1: on his head, it's like he'll reborn Brazilian.
- 24:01Speaker 4: Brazilian. Yeah.
- 24:04Speaker 2: Yeah, although I will say Gatti his haircut now, I
- 24:07Speaker 2: don't know if you had it, if you saw it,
- 24:09Speaker 2: he's looking more and.
- 24:10Speaker 4: More like bro.
- 24:11Speaker 3: Me and me and my brother were watching the game,
- 24:13Speaker 3: right and it was like, yo, either you gotta fire
- 24:16Speaker 3: your barber or you gotta look in the mirror and
- 24:18Speaker 3: just say let it go. Like it's this is like
- 24:22Speaker 3: Micky Tarien shaking hands with Goran Pandev shaking hands with
- 24:28Speaker 3: Jorjio Killini.
- 24:29Speaker 4: It's like, I don't know, man, let it go. I
- 24:32Speaker 4: think I think it's time.
- 24:33Speaker 3: Like I didn't realize he was losing it like that,
- 24:36Speaker 3: but hey, I mean.
- 24:38Speaker 5: It might be time.
- 24:39Speaker 4: You got it.
- 24:40Speaker 3: Like I said, either got to fire the barber or
- 24:42Speaker 3: if you're doing it yourself, just take the zero the
- 24:46Speaker 3: number zero guard and just let it.
- 24:47Speaker 5: Let it go.
- 24:49Speaker 1: There you exactly, it's it's it's worse than mine and
- 24:52Speaker 1: I like, go five years ago.
- 24:55Speaker 4: So I think you should take a page out of
- 24:56Speaker 4: your book.
- 24:57Speaker 3: And if Johnny's listening, maybe Johnny's book as well, right there,
- 25:01Speaker 3: if you're listening, exactly.
- 25:03Speaker 1: But yeah, I know, overall, like happy with the win
- 25:06Speaker 1: with you.
- 25:06Speaker 4: But I think it was too high.
- 25:10Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I think it was. It was good just
- 25:12Speaker 3: to bounce off your your Jonathan David point because I
- 25:16Speaker 3: think I think it's it was exciting because there was
- 25:19Speaker 3: a lot of firsts.
- 25:20Speaker 4: Like like in the like for debuts, and like goals
- 25:24Speaker 4: being scored and stuff of that nature.
- 25:26Speaker 3: And like what kind of touched upon with with modric
- 25:28Speaker 3: you know, debut goal, Jonathan David debut.
- 25:32Speaker 5: Goal, right, So.
- 25:35Speaker 4: There's probably somebody else I missing, but we'll probably get
- 25:37Speaker 4: into it later.
- 25:38Speaker 3: But uh, it's it's it's it's encouraging for him.
- 25:43Speaker 4: And because I saw a bit in the game, like
- 25:47Speaker 4: I think he still needs time.
- 25:49Speaker 3: I think just that you have in general, I think
- 25:51Speaker 3: they still need time to kind of still gel a
- 25:53Speaker 3: bit because you saw David kind of you know, the
- 25:56Speaker 3: past was kind of a bit like it was should
- 25:59Speaker 3: where he should have been and he wasn't. Like it
- 26:01Speaker 3: was kind of one of those types of things I
- 26:03Speaker 3: kind of noticed throughout the match and I was like,
- 26:05Speaker 3: if this keeps up, then it's an issue. But listen,
- 26:07Speaker 3: it's match day one. We'll give him the benefit of the doubt.
- 26:10Speaker 3: He ended up scoring. He was at the right place
- 26:12Speaker 3: at the right time on the goal, even though I
- 26:14Speaker 3: know a lot of fans said he maybe shouldn't have
- 26:16Speaker 3: counted because there.
- 26:17Speaker 4: Was an offside prior to that before the corner.
- 26:19Speaker 5: But again, well we'll call it what.
- 26:21Speaker 3: It was, Like you said, Yielda's I think is is.
- 26:27Speaker 4: A top player for JUVE, And.
- 26:30Speaker 3: Yeah, I think they need to protect him at all costs.
- 26:32Speaker 3: I think you know he's I.
- 26:35Speaker 4: Think, what's let's maybe take it easy with like all
- 26:38Speaker 4: the overhype.
- 26:39Speaker 3: Let him just play. Let the kid play like he's
- 26:41Speaker 3: a good player, Let him play, let him, let him
- 26:44Speaker 3: earn his stripes, like you already gave him the number ten,
- 26:47Speaker 3: like the ten in juv As. It's a big number
- 26:50Speaker 3: to wear, right, So let him grow, let them, let
- 26:53Speaker 3: him get into his own and let him continue to
- 26:56Speaker 3: have these performances and and and and stuff like that,
- 26:59Speaker 3: because I feel like one a string of bad performances
- 27:04Speaker 3: and you know how fast you know, fans turn right
- 27:07Speaker 3: on these players.
- 27:07Speaker 4: So let them make mistakes, let him grow, let let them,
- 27:10Speaker 4: let them.
- 27:11Speaker 5: Play at a high level, and we'll take it from there.
- 27:13Speaker 3: But yeah, for Jonathan David, like like I said, I
- 27:15Speaker 3: think I've been more time to gel and I think
- 27:18Speaker 3: he can he can get going.
- 27:20Speaker 4: I don't know what how many.
- 27:22Speaker 3: Goals you think he can maybe score in this in
- 27:23Speaker 3: this season. What do you maybe think, like is a
- 27:26Speaker 3: reason fifteen twenty?
- 27:28Speaker 1: I think fifteen realistic kind of I think that's the
- 27:33Speaker 1: piece he was at with Lale anyways, if I remember correctly.
- 27:37Speaker 4: I think besides maybe there.
- 27:39Speaker 1: Was one season where he had I would close to
- 27:41Speaker 1: thirty or around thirty. Yeah, but I think last season
- 27:45Speaker 1: I was about sixteen if I remember correctly. But you know,
- 27:49Speaker 1: bring up you know people talking most shit have counted.
- 27:51Speaker 1: That's one thing about var I never really understood, like
- 27:55Speaker 1: they'll call back something if there's like a slight foul
- 27:58Speaker 1: like forty fives before, but if there's like an off
- 28:04Speaker 1: side leading up to a corner that leads to a goal,
- 28:07Speaker 1: they're not going to count.
- 28:08Speaker 4: There's a bit weird.
- 28:09Speaker 1: It's not interned.
- 28:10Speaker 3: Sorry, Yeah, it's weird because honestly, like I don't want
- 28:13Speaker 3: to be like a hater, but like fucking moy Kelly
- 28:16Speaker 3: was offside, No he was, he was. I don't know,
- 28:18Speaker 3: like people saw that. If they didn't see that, I
- 28:20Speaker 3: would go back and look at it because he was
- 28:23Speaker 3: clearly offside outside.
- 28:24Speaker 4: Yeah, they didn't see it or they didn't get picked up.
- 28:28Speaker 4: Uh you know, and you know it goes to.
- 28:32Speaker 3: The corner and and they get the corner and you
- 28:34Speaker 3: know it ultimately ends in the goal. Does that mean
- 28:37Speaker 3: you wins or lose the game? If that is a
- 28:39Speaker 3: different call. Who knows if Bremer doesn't make that stop
- 28:42Speaker 3: on the you know, on that cutback.
- 28:45Speaker 5: For the part of my player that could have scored.
- 28:47Speaker 3: I think it was uh Pellegrino or whatever his name is,
- 28:49Speaker 3: the strike Argentina striker for Partima. If he scores that,
- 28:52Speaker 3: it's a different game there too. So again it's it's
- 28:55Speaker 3: a lot of what ifs. But if we want to
- 28:58Speaker 3: call a spade of spade, I mean, Lloyd Kelly, it
- 29:00Speaker 3: was outside and it probably maybe shouldn't have counted. But again,
- 29:03Speaker 3: I agree with what you're saying. It's weird with the VAR.
- 29:05Speaker 3: I don't know. Again, I don't know. Is it because
- 29:09Speaker 3: it wasn't it wasn't seen, it wasn't picked up. They
- 29:11Speaker 3: weren't paying attention, like if they're still that gray zone.
- 29:15Speaker 4: Right.
- 29:15Speaker 5: So again, we can argue with.
- 29:16Speaker 3: This until until the sun comes up. But it's it's
- 29:20Speaker 3: one of those weird things that I do have to
- 29:22Speaker 3: agree with you.
- 29:23Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean right now, Like that rule is just
- 29:25Speaker 2: a limitation of the rules, Like besides the on field
- 29:29Speaker 2: official missing the offside, the officials didn't the VAR didn't
- 29:34Speaker 2: do anything wrong. They couldn't intervene they can't intervene, which
- 29:38Speaker 2: is I guess.
- 29:38Speaker 3: Okay, so that that said it, that's that's something you
- 29:41Speaker 3: can look at.
- 29:41Speaker 4: Okay, so then there so then there you go.
- 29:43Speaker 5: You have to either pick it up or or you.
- 29:46Speaker 4: Yeah, it's one of those. Okay, well then yeah.
- 29:50Speaker 1: There's not much. Yeah it especially with like the semi
- 29:54Speaker 1: automated off side now you'd think or even one thing.
- 29:58Speaker 2: I don't know if are actually intervenes, but like, let's
- 30:01Speaker 2: say there's a corner. Let's say the the onfield official
- 30:04Speaker 2: rules it goes off the defending team, but in fact
- 30:08Speaker 2: it goes off the offending team.
- 30:09Speaker 1: Then they score. I don't know. Obviously var ten interview
- 30:13Speaker 1: once the goal gets scored, but I don't know if
- 30:15Speaker 1: they could interview, like about who touches the ball. That's
- 30:19Speaker 1: one thing I've always like, it's such an easy, easy
- 30:22Speaker 1: thing to reverse, especially when it's clear and obvious.
- 30:25Speaker 2: And that's the whole point of far clear and obvious. Okay, fine,
- 30:28Speaker 2: if you have to go frame by frame to see who.
- 30:31Speaker 7: You know, who touched it last, then don't you know,
- 30:34Speaker 7: no point like give give give like ten seconds of
- 30:37Speaker 7: our let's say on a corner kick like that it's
- 30:39Speaker 7: the correct things.
- 30:40Speaker 1: But yeah, no, it's it's a limitations rule. I wouldn't
- 30:43Speaker 1: be surprised if one day they do they do change it,
- 30:46Speaker 1: because because there will be one goal that it's gonna
- 30:48Speaker 1: be scored in a big match that's gonna that's gonna
- 30:50Speaker 1: create controversy because of that.
- 30:53Speaker 3: It only takes those types of moments, right Like, it
- 30:55Speaker 3: only takes controversy, It only takes one guy fucking up
- 30:58Speaker 3: to screw it up for everybody else, right Like, it's
- 31:01Speaker 3: it only takes those types of things for for ultimately
- 31:04Speaker 3: for things to change. So I agree with you, I
- 31:07Speaker 3: wouldn't shock me if it eventually does change. It's a
- 31:10Speaker 3: shame because again, even in a I don't want to
- 31:14Speaker 3: call the match, they won a meaningless game, but it's
- 31:17Speaker 3: still it's at the end of it, like who knows,
- 31:19Speaker 3: Like I don't know, does PARTMA.
- 31:22Speaker 4: Get relegated at the end of the season because of
- 31:24Speaker 4: this type.
- 31:24Speaker 3: Of situation And we look back and we're like, oh, fuck, well,
- 31:27Speaker 3: you know Lloyd Kelly was offside and that God account
- 31:30Speaker 3: and blah blah blah, like I don't know, like you'll
- 31:32Speaker 3: never know.
- 31:33Speaker 4: And so anyways, it's one of those great zones.
- 31:36Speaker 3: For me, I'd rather look past it than than really
- 31:39Speaker 3: emphasize on it.
- 31:40Speaker 4: But but I just it's it's a weird one.
- 31:45Speaker 2: And I think there was a bit of story lines
- 31:48Speaker 2: from bar from the weekend because I didn't see this,
- 31:50Speaker 2: but in the last two game, uh, there was a
- 31:54Speaker 2: our call and now the officials are gonna see, yeah,
- 31:57Speaker 2: what the decision was.
- 31:58Speaker 1: But apparently the refl like kind of yelled.
- 32:02Speaker 2: It was very like, uh, not professional in the way
- 32:05Speaker 2: he announced it or something. And now now there the
- 32:08Speaker 2: fig C is going to hire people to teach them
- 32:10Speaker 2: how to properly, properly speak on the mic.
- 32:12Speaker 4: I don't know if you saw that all that shene
- 32:15Speaker 4: out again, No, did I see like the action of
- 32:18Speaker 4: it happening.
- 32:19Speaker 3: I don't know if it was in that game or
- 32:20Speaker 3: if it was also another game that I kind of
- 32:23Speaker 3: saw it and.
- 32:23Speaker 4: Now I don't remember, but one of like he was
- 32:28Speaker 4: shouting it.
- 32:29Speaker 3: Maybe he didn't realize that like he just could talk
- 32:31Speaker 3: at a decent tone and like I think, like it'll
- 32:34Speaker 3: be picked up, like he was shouting, like he was screaming,
- 32:37Speaker 3: like like you know, like my mother like she was
- 32:40Speaker 3: like you know what I.
- 32:40Speaker 4: Mean, Like it's one of those things. But I.
- 32:45Speaker 3: Mean leave it to leave it to the city. I
- 32:47Speaker 3: leave it to I like listen, I think if anybody
- 32:51Speaker 3: listening to this, you know, follows you know North American sports,
- 32:55Speaker 3: I think, you know, taking a page out of out
- 32:57Speaker 3: of you know the North American you know NFL type
- 33:01Speaker 3: of you know, uh, refereeing call, you know, saying what
- 33:06Speaker 3: the foul is and you know the yardage and when
- 33:08Speaker 3: you know the first down or you know what that
- 33:10Speaker 3: whatever down it's going to be, and just letting the
- 33:14Speaker 3: fans know what is being called. Because we've we've said
- 33:17Speaker 3: in the past, like we've been doing this, what was
- 33:19Speaker 3: in us? How many seasons is this now?
- 33:22Speaker 4: Seven? Six, eight? Whatever it is? We've said on the
- 33:27Speaker 4: show eight right.
- 33:28Speaker 3: We've sat on the show many times like we get
- 33:31Speaker 3: left in the dark sometimes with some of these calls,
- 33:33Speaker 3: and we're kind of arguing it, but we're not even
- 33:35Speaker 3: sure what we're arguing because we see it a different way.
- 33:38Speaker 4: Right.
- 33:38Speaker 3: The clarity I think has been the biggest thing with
- 33:40Speaker 3: the VAR especially for me, and you know how I
- 33:43Speaker 3: have always felt with the VAR right, So I do
- 33:49Speaker 3: like it, like it's it's it's makes me laugh at
- 33:52Speaker 3: these guys have to get coach how to talk on
- 33:53Speaker 3: a mic, like that should be fucking like rule number one,
- 33:57Speaker 3: like like preliminary, like you know, training for this type
- 34:02Speaker 3: of shit. Like I don't get it, Like I think
- 34:05Speaker 3: leave it too said he had to have it be
- 34:06Speaker 3: a comical storyline. I think you can add this to
- 34:12Speaker 3: the you know, solo in Italian moment. But it's for me,
- 34:16Speaker 3: it's crazy, like the guy didn't have to shout. I
- 34:18Speaker 3: think maybe he didn't realize maybe he didn't have to shout,
- 34:20Speaker 3: and but I like, yeah, it's as if he didn't
- 34:26Speaker 3: have them exactly. But you know what, they have to
- 34:28Speaker 3: expect this too, because Italians are loud people, right, like
- 34:32Speaker 3: we are loud individuals. So I don't even think he was.
- 34:35Speaker 3: He probably wasn't even shouting. He probably was just talking normal.
- 34:38Speaker 3: That's probably his normal indoor voice, like he can't be quiet, right,
- 34:41Speaker 3: So it would have shocked me. But again, like the concept,
- 34:45Speaker 3: I don't know you know how many times will will
- 34:50Speaker 3: end up ultimate we see it. I think it will happen,
- 34:53Speaker 3: maybe more than you know, more than we we probably anticipate.
- 34:57Speaker 4: But yeah, just interesting to me. Hopefully it all ends well.
- 35:05Speaker 2: But yeah, that Lato game they lost to nothing to Como,
- 35:08Speaker 2: so Como coming up strong. You know, we praised him
- 35:11Speaker 2: so much on this on this show. A Nastasios Kas
- 35:15Speaker 2: Greek Greek guy from probably from Stromdi or something.
- 35:20Speaker 1: And Hico Pass with the goal. Nico Pass another another
- 35:23Speaker 1: of those young young players that's really coming into his own.
- 35:26Speaker 4: And the guy's the guy, special man.
- 35:28Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's he's he's pretty much Como Yield is
- 35:31Speaker 1: straight up. He's a special player for that team. Uh
- 35:36Speaker 1: special team. Well we'll see again only one day, one
- 35:39Speaker 1: match day.
- 35:39Speaker 2: But for them to win one nothing, sorry to nothing
- 35:42Speaker 2: against Latio, come O strong themselves and they they dominated
- 35:46Speaker 2: Latto as well. Nineteen to five, the shots, six to one,
- 35:49Speaker 2: shots on target, sixty four thirty six possession. This was
- 35:53Speaker 2: not a flute victory. This was I don't know if
- 35:55Speaker 2: you if you if you look up the expected goals,
- 35:59Speaker 2: but I'm sure be in line with what the actual
- 36:02Speaker 2: goals of the game for sure. Yeah, so crazy good
- 36:06Speaker 2: result of Coma at the start of the season.
- 36:08Speaker 3: You know what, I agree totally, And like you said,
- 36:10Speaker 3: Nico Pass just a special player. I mean, like I think,
- 36:14Speaker 3: like last season, like I remember seeing I remember watching
- 36:16Speaker 3: a bit of him, and you know, like we knew
- 36:18Speaker 3: he was talented, but I think this year to start
- 36:22Speaker 3: off like he's just like a different year, Like it's
- 36:25Speaker 3: year two with him at Como. He took to number ten,
- 36:30Speaker 3: Like he's just got that that hit factor and he's
- 36:33Speaker 3: a special, special talent. Like I know, there's it's a
- 36:36Speaker 3: bit complicated with the Como and real Madrid like like ownership,
- 36:42Speaker 3: but who really owns him like he it's I find
- 36:45Speaker 3: it a bit complicated all that like, but besides all
- 36:47Speaker 3: that stuff on the pitch, the.
- 36:49Speaker 4: Kids special, he's a real gem.
- 36:51Speaker 3: He's a real talent and it's exciting to see him
- 36:53Speaker 3: and said, yeah, you know, and it's crazy because you
- 36:58Speaker 3: know Como, it's a team that you know as if
- 37:02Speaker 3: you if you follow the show, you know, Johnny predicted
- 37:05Speaker 3: them to finish top ten last season. They ultimately did
- 37:08Speaker 3: this season. We've had a high praise for them. Will
- 37:11Speaker 3: they push, will they get to Europe?
- 37:13Speaker 4: I don't know. Will they push? Will they be in
- 37:15Speaker 4: that you know, seven to ten range? I think so.
- 37:19Speaker 3: I think they have a real shot of sticking in
- 37:21Speaker 3: that and maybe put maybe putting some pressure on that,
- 37:24Speaker 3: you know, sixth, sixth place team for for Europe and
- 37:28Speaker 3: we'll ultimately see. But uh, it just I like the project.
- 37:33Speaker 3: And I've said this on the show before. I just
- 37:34Speaker 3: like the project they have.
- 37:36Speaker 4: They have money, so it helps their ownership group is ridiculous.
- 37:41Speaker 2: It feels like, I don't know if I don't know
- 37:44Speaker 2: if you still has this feature, but when you start
- 37:46Speaker 2: the career motor, at least in the older games you
- 37:48Speaker 2: could buy or get a perk where it was like yeah,
- 37:52Speaker 2: financial takeover and you had like one hundred million dollar budget.
- 37:55Speaker 4: Feels like that.
- 37:57Speaker 3: It really, it really does. And but you know what
- 37:59Speaker 3: it's like, it's not just it's not they as they
- 38:01Speaker 3: have the money. Like I think I was seeing somebody
- 38:04Speaker 3: they might be like the richest owners and said, yeah,
- 38:06Speaker 3: I believe like the they're up there. If not, if
- 38:09Speaker 3: they're not the top there, they're up there for sure.
- 38:11Speaker 3: They really have you know, a big, a big, big backing.
- 38:15Speaker 3: And it's it's something that we haven't really seen, uh
- 38:19Speaker 3: with these with these you know, citia be teams coming
- 38:21Speaker 3: up to Sadiyah. I think if you want to maybe
- 38:24Speaker 3: kind of compare it to be like the Mons of
- 38:26Speaker 3: situation where Mons that had you know, the the bill
- 38:29Speaker 3: Scrony Galiani era. You know that that a little bit
- 38:32Speaker 3: of a backing there, but nowhere near to what Como's
- 38:36Speaker 3: backing is for for them. And ultimately I like that
- 38:39Speaker 3: they find that they have that backing. But besides that,
- 38:42Speaker 3: it's the project that they have in place that I
- 38:44Speaker 3: think is it's really ambitious, uh, something that we don't
- 38:48Speaker 3: usually see in in in you know, in in Italian culture.
- 38:52Speaker 3: I think, uh, it's it's very modern, it's very you know,
- 38:57Speaker 3: they play a different style then the typical Italian style,
- 39:01Speaker 3: and I think when you have a manager of like
- 39:04Speaker 3: check se fabricas it's it's Almos, it's almost like the
- 39:08Speaker 3: perfect manager to kind of allow this, uh, this play
- 39:13Speaker 3: to happen. Like I don't know if you watch, if
- 39:15Speaker 3: you watch any of the game, but it just free
- 39:18Speaker 3: flowing there there.
- 39:19Speaker 4: They want to go attack, They're not going to sit back.
- 39:22Speaker 3: They want to go forward, and uh, they'll take that
- 39:25Speaker 3: risk of going forward rather than risking, you know, only
- 39:28Speaker 3: defending a one zerl lead. And it's something to to
- 39:30Speaker 3: really you know, tip your hat off too, because you
- 39:33Speaker 3: know it's not it doesn't fit.
- 39:34Speaker 4: The uh the ideal, you know, uh, Italian mold of culture.
- 39:40Speaker 3: So maybe it takes a team like that to kind
- 39:43Speaker 3: of maybe turn some heads and uh and and maybe
- 39:45Speaker 3: get out of this this old mentality.
- 39:49Speaker 4: It's something to that's encouraging, I think.
- 39:53Speaker 3: But yeah, when you have players, when you're able to
- 39:55Speaker 3: hold onto players like Nico pass and gain offered like
- 39:58Speaker 3: sixty five seventy million by like taught him, and being
- 40:01Speaker 3: able to refuse that and still be able to play
- 40:05Speaker 3: your type of of of culture is is something that
- 40:08Speaker 3: is uh is commendable for for for me at least
- 40:13Speaker 3: because like we saw and like you mentioned, Nick quite
- 40:15Speaker 3: Nico pass, the goal was out of this world. The
- 40:20Speaker 3: past to du Vicas was was incredible. The turn I
- 40:24Speaker 3: don't know if anybody saw that turn like about mid
- 40:26Speaker 3: midfield that he just you know, spun out of Nuna,
- 40:32Speaker 3: uh you know, really put him in the dust and
- 40:35Speaker 3: got got going forward was just incredible to watch.
- 40:38Speaker 4: So uh yeah, man, he's uh, not only him, but
- 40:42Speaker 4: I think just a team is is playing well.
- 40:44Speaker 3: And again we've said it already a handful of times
- 40:48Speaker 3: just in this opening part of the show. But it's
- 40:51Speaker 3: match day one. It is it is a long season,
- 40:53Speaker 3: but I think that you know, Como has not really
- 40:57Speaker 3: much to uh. I don't want to say that not
- 41:00Speaker 3: much to lose, but like they don't have like they
- 41:02Speaker 3: shouldn't go into these matches like with much fear. Like
- 41:04Speaker 3: they they know what they have and I think they
- 41:07Speaker 3: they know there's no Yeah, that pressure shouldn't really be there.
- 41:11Speaker 3: Like then they they go in there and they perform
- 41:14Speaker 3: and they do well, and you know, we talk about them,
- 41:17Speaker 3: you know, uh, you know, uh, you know Monday Wednesday
- 41:20Speaker 3: whenever we record, right and a lot of a lot
- 41:22Speaker 3: of people are really hyping them up.
- 41:23Speaker 4: I think it's rightfully so I do. I say, though,
- 41:27Speaker 4: I think.
- 41:28Speaker 3: Johnny should get his flowers for predicting their their their
- 41:32Speaker 3: finish last season.
- 41:33Speaker 4: Uh. For I think he definitely deserves his followers.
- 41:36Speaker 3: And a lot of people now jumping beyond that Como bandwagon.
- 41:39Speaker 3: I think Johnny saw our first guys, let's let's put
- 41:41Speaker 3: let's call a space of spade. But yeah, I just uh,
- 41:46Speaker 3: it's just it's exciting, the one thing that is interesting
- 41:49Speaker 3: to me, and I think, uh fably guests got asked this.
- 41:51Speaker 3: I don't know if it was a journealist to ask
- 41:53Speaker 3: them or it came up in conversations somehow. Uh. They
- 41:58Speaker 3: was asked about, you know, like trying to bring more
- 42:00Speaker 3: allions to the to the squad, and he said, I've
- 42:02Speaker 3: been trying, but you know, it's it's it's it's not
- 42:06Speaker 3: always as easy. And that's why you kind of maybe
- 42:08Speaker 3: see a bit more of that Spanish contingent, Argentinian contingent
- 42:11Speaker 3: and you know, just foreign players at a side like
- 42:16Speaker 3: but again, they'll do what they can to to ultimately
- 42:20Speaker 3: survive and then do you know, a step forward from
- 42:22Speaker 3: what they did last season, which was tenth place.
- 42:25Speaker 4: So exciting team, a team that if you guys.
- 42:29Speaker 3: Aren't already watching, definitely keep your eyes on Como because
- 42:32Speaker 3: I think they can do some some special things this season.
- 42:37Speaker 4: We'll get to me.
- 42:38Speaker 1: Also an injury, but I feel like you gotta get
- 42:41Speaker 1: the you gotta get saved up. You got to save
- 42:44Speaker 1: your energy for.
- 42:45Speaker 4: For the end.
- 42:47Speaker 3: Type of Sunday sauce, right, you gotta let it, let
- 42:49Speaker 3: it go low and slow, low and slow. What is
- 42:52Speaker 3: similar what with all that that meat and the meat
- 42:54Speaker 3: balls and the and the each the brush hole, what
- 42:59Speaker 3: it marinate in that sauce and get that good flavor
- 43:02Speaker 3: come Sunday lunch.
- 43:04Speaker 1: There you go, we'll talk about the other Roman team.
- 43:07Speaker 1: They won this weekend against the bowl Andy and won
- 43:10Speaker 1: nothing debut goal for for Wesley. Before we talked about
- 43:17Speaker 1: the game, Alessandro Florenzi announced his retirement. Obviously the Roman legend.
- 43:21Speaker 2: It's crazy because for me, if for Alrenzi is still
- 43:24Speaker 2: a young player who has to get his opportunity. But
- 43:28Speaker 2: it's true because this is a guy who came up
- 43:30Speaker 2: pretty much seam a generation as a mobile and cena
- 43:33Speaker 2: that you know, that twenty thirteen U twenty one team
- 43:35Speaker 2: that lost to England or to starry Spain in the final,
- 43:40Speaker 2: that kind of that generation that won the Euros. Part
- 43:43Speaker 2: of them won the Euros but also missed out on
- 43:45Speaker 2: all these World Cups. And Florenzi is that one, you know,
- 43:48Speaker 2: one player obviously at the end of his career, hampered
- 43:50Speaker 2: by drees, but he's he was a fan favorite right
- 43:54Speaker 2: at his prime in with Roma and if you you know,
- 43:57Speaker 2: going back to FIFA, if you play FIFA, guy was
- 43:59Speaker 2: an app monster, so fast on the right side.
- 44:04Speaker 1: Obviously one of those players better in FIFA than in
- 44:06Speaker 1: real life. You know, it sounded like he was ever
- 44:08Speaker 1: one of the best right backs in the world, but
- 44:11Speaker 1: just one of those players. I was shocked to see
- 44:12Speaker 1: it this morning because you know, at first I saw
- 44:14Speaker 1: some highlights. I thought it was his birthday. You know
- 44:17Speaker 1: sometimes you see those highlights. Oh okay, it's his birthday. No,
- 44:19Speaker 1: he's Priory. Oh shit, thirty four years old, Adrie crazy.
- 44:24Speaker 1: We you know, we saw him playing against Montreal here
- 44:27Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen, so he would have been one. That's
- 44:31Speaker 1: when he would have been young nine years ago.
- 44:34Speaker 4: Okay, you would have thought you were teams saw fuck,
- 44:37Speaker 4: it was all.
- 44:38Speaker 1: That was on the team. So you know, shutout whereenzi
- 44:41Speaker 1: uh is. I wonder what he's gonna I don't know
- 44:43Speaker 1: if you know it's what he's gonna do.
- 44:44Speaker 4: Now, No I didn't. I didn't. I didn't see it.
- 44:47Speaker 3: But you know, just like just to bounce off to
- 44:49Speaker 3: you said school Teto winner with Milan as well, right right,
- 44:53Speaker 3: as as as a scudetto uh and and ultimately.
- 44:57Speaker 4: Like not a starter on that Meali team, but a
- 45:01Speaker 4: player that came up in moments.
- 45:03Speaker 3: And you know, even when he went abroad, right when
- 45:06Speaker 3: he went to phg on, when he went to Spain.
- 45:08Speaker 3: He went to Spain, I believe he was a Villa Real, Valencia,
- 45:11Speaker 3: one of those teams PSG, the PHG the years as well,
- 45:16Speaker 3: and and then when he came to Neil and it
- 45:19Speaker 3: was like one of these things, like fuck I a
- 45:21Speaker 3: bit later on in his career, but it.
- 45:24Speaker 4: Just he was he was always of disposal and he
- 45:28Speaker 4: would do whatever you needed him to do.
- 45:30Speaker 3: One of those like you know, you know what, like
- 45:35Speaker 3: just jack of all trades, like you know, he was
- 45:38Speaker 3: a right back slash, right mid slash, midfielder slash, right
- 45:43Speaker 3: wing back slash, whatever you want. Like, he was just
- 45:47Speaker 3: one of those types of players. And again very I think,
- 45:50Speaker 3: well liked in the locker room, you know, playing for Roma,
- 45:55Speaker 3: I think for him was you know, for all these
- 45:57Speaker 3: Roman kids, is obviously a dream, you know, playing at
- 46:02Speaker 3: the highest levels, you know, Champions the Champions League goal
- 46:06Speaker 3: from from half from half field, that that moment and
- 46:10Speaker 3: the Champions League where he scored from half field against Realite,
- 46:12Speaker 3: if I'm.
- 46:13Speaker 4: Not mistaken, was just incredible.
- 46:15Speaker 3: Like the goal and he goes into the stands and
- 46:19Speaker 3: goes and finds his no no, gives her the big
- 46:21Speaker 3: hugging kiss Like those moments you know will will forever
- 46:25Speaker 3: being greined in our in our heads and ultimately for
- 46:29Speaker 3: for me and fans, right right, like scoring scoring these
- 46:32Speaker 3: these these big goals and getting you know, uh, funning
- 46:36Speaker 3: over the hump and winning the school let with Milan
- 46:38Speaker 3: and winning the the Euros with with you know that
- 46:42Speaker 3: Italy squad as you know, that veteran that piece and
- 46:46Speaker 3: and you know occasional starter. Just you know, the moment
- 46:53Speaker 3: they posted, I think I don't know if it was
- 46:55Speaker 3: him who posted or if it was and I think
- 46:57Speaker 3: it was the the Azuri instagram who posted it.
- 47:00Speaker 4: You know, just some of his clips with with the
- 47:03Speaker 4: national team and that.
- 47:04Speaker 3: That last ditch effort where he's falling backwards, his his
- 47:09Speaker 3: he dives one way he fixed it with with his
- 47:12Speaker 3: heel to save that save that Thomas Muller shot Italy Germany,
- 47:17Speaker 3: you know the Euros there.
- 47:18Speaker 4: It was just.
- 47:20Speaker 3: Just these these moments, I think Forends. It was just
- 47:23Speaker 3: one of those guys, right like you know DINOI he
- 47:26Speaker 3: was one, you know, one of us wherever, wherever you
- 47:28Speaker 3: wherever he was and yeah, man, just great great, just
- 47:35Speaker 3: great overall guy and player.
- 47:36Speaker 4: I think you know he deserves his flowers.
- 47:38Speaker 3: And again no, no superstar like he wasn't the next
- 47:42Speaker 3: coming of you know, Maldini or you know, whatever you
- 47:45Speaker 3: want to say. But he was a legend in his
- 47:49Speaker 3: own right, and I think he deserves his flowers and
- 47:53Speaker 3: just you know, we wish him obviously a happy, happy retirement.
- 47:57Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. And I don't know if you want to
- 48:00Speaker 1: have mentioned anything about this Roma game as team, Like
- 48:04Speaker 1: you know, we spoke about it was the last week
- 48:06Speaker 1: or two weeks ago when we did the preview episode. Yeah,
- 48:09Speaker 1: they kind of have momentum right from last season.
- 48:11Speaker 2: They kind of carried it into this game Bolon. Yeah,
- 48:13Speaker 2: they had a rough start last year. Okay, obviously not
- 48:15Speaker 2: the best start. You know, it's just one week, but yeah,
- 48:20Speaker 2: almost the statement went from Roma meeting a team that
- 48:23Speaker 2: they're going to battle with in the standings all season,
- 48:26Speaker 2: it might it might help them after thirty weeks.
- 48:29Speaker 4: Right.
- 48:29Speaker 2: This went fourteen shots to ten, pretty even, fourteen ten,
- 48:34Speaker 2: four to two shots on target, session fifty one to
- 48:36Speaker 2: forty nine, So I think to really celebrate that makes
- 48:39Speaker 2: up for that one goal.
- 48:41Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 48:41Speaker 4: No, this was game one for Gaspadina in his new
- 48:45Speaker 4: tenure Aroma.
- 48:47Speaker 3: I think it was obviously ultimately it was a positive
- 48:51Speaker 3: one and you know they get to win in his
- 48:52Speaker 3: in his debut match as manager.
- 48:55Speaker 4: So I think Roma fans are happy for that.
- 48:57Speaker 3: And you know, Wesley uh interesting profile and I think it,
- 49:02Speaker 3: you know, yeh like looking back, it maybe could have
- 49:06Speaker 3: been a target for me on because I think he
- 49:08Speaker 3: fits in that right that right back, right wing back
- 49:10Speaker 3: slot and he can. Again I didn't see all the match.
- 49:14Speaker 3: I saw more of the highlights if anything, but he
- 49:15Speaker 3: looked uh, he looked pretty good. Obviously, like we're going
- 49:19Speaker 3: to say that because he gets the goal and you
- 49:20Speaker 3: know he's in the he's in the newspapers.
- 49:21Speaker 4: And stuff like that.
- 49:22Speaker 3: But just uh, an interesting profile which I think can
- 49:28Speaker 3: do a lot under under Gasparini. Another player, uh, you
- 49:33Speaker 3: know who I didn't know all too much about, who
- 49:36Speaker 3: I didn't think was gonna really you know, impress if
- 49:41Speaker 3: if that's the right word to use, was the Ferguson
- 49:44Speaker 3: uh Irish striker that they had that they picked up. Again,
- 49:49Speaker 3: I didn't see much, but from what I've been hearing
- 49:52Speaker 3: and from the a little bit of the highlights, uh,
- 49:55Speaker 3: impressive first first show. And obviously he didn't get a
- 49:58Speaker 3: goal and anything like that, but he works like uh,
- 50:01Speaker 3: a player that can really flourish under Gaspardini. I think
- 50:04Speaker 3: he can build up play he can. He can he
- 50:06Speaker 3: can get into position to score goals. He can, he
- 50:08Speaker 3: can link up well with with it be if it
- 50:11Speaker 3: be you know Soule, if it be you know Dibala,
- 50:14Speaker 3: if it be Shadawi, whoever you know going forward it's
- 50:17Speaker 3: going to be or even with the wing backs, you know,
- 50:19Speaker 3: and and Angel and and Heleno whatever his name is,
- 50:23Speaker 3: and and Wesley.
- 50:26Speaker 4: I think I think he can he can do well.
- 50:28Speaker 4: Obviously Dove Big is.
- 50:29Speaker 3: Still there and you know with the Mecato news, you know,
- 50:32Speaker 3: who knows if he stays or goes. But we'll get
- 50:36Speaker 3: into that probably a bill later. But yeah, just I think,
- 50:40Speaker 3: uh just a positive.
- 50:40Speaker 4: Start for for Gasperini week one. Uh Roma.
- 50:45Speaker 3: It's yes, they have that momentum from last season, but
- 50:48Speaker 3: at the same time it's it's not only is it
- 50:51Speaker 3: a new season, but it's it's a new start, like
- 50:53Speaker 3: they don't have. Yes, it's a lot of the same players,
- 50:55Speaker 3: but it's not the same manager. It's maybe not the
- 50:56Speaker 3: same talks in the locker room. I think it might
- 50:59Speaker 3: be a bit friends with with a guy liked or Gasparini.
- 51:03Speaker 3: So as long as you know, they stay stayed together
- 51:07Speaker 3: as a team. I listen, I predicted them to to
- 51:10Speaker 3: finish fifth. Well, they finished well against that top four.
- 51:15Speaker 3: I I did say it was gonna be a c
- 51:17Speaker 3: saw between just like it was last season between Juve
- 51:19Speaker 3: and and and Aroma. I think it can continue like
- 51:22Speaker 3: that for me. You mentioned Bologna. I think Bonnia can
- 51:24Speaker 3: get into that mix as well for sure. So these
- 51:27Speaker 3: early wins, I think, like you, like you touched upon
- 51:30Speaker 3: is going to be huge. It's a momentum thing. They
- 51:32Speaker 3: have to continue like this. I don't know who they're
- 51:34Speaker 3: playing this week. I don't know if you have it up.
- 51:37Speaker 4: I missed it on the ticker. Uh no, Romo. They
- 51:43Speaker 4: playing Pisa. They're pointing Pizza.
- 51:45Speaker 3: So in an ideal world, that should be two wins
- 51:48Speaker 3: from two, right, they got the harder you know match
- 51:51Speaker 3: out of the way against Bologna.
- 51:54Speaker 4: Pisa should be again.
- 51:56Speaker 3: I don't wanna, I don't want to say, you know,
- 51:58Speaker 3: it's a cake walk, but it's should be a win
- 52:01Speaker 3: for them if they want to be serious and want
- 52:03Speaker 3: to really take take the start of the season, you know,
- 52:05Speaker 3: in a.
- 52:06Speaker 4: In a in a in a strong way. So I
- 52:10Speaker 4: think Roma fans are excited.
- 52:12Speaker 3: I've I've been seeing online they've they've they work, they
- 52:14Speaker 3: work more positive than they've kind of ever been. So
- 52:17Speaker 3: if they can stay on this path, I think, uh,
- 52:19Speaker 3: I think it ultimately be good for them. And we
- 52:22Speaker 3: said I always I know, I said that, you know,
- 52:24Speaker 3: I think it's gonna take some time for for Gaspardini's
- 52:27Speaker 3: way to kind of sink into this Roma squad. It
- 52:31Speaker 3: might not take as long as as many anticipate. They
- 52:34Speaker 3: might go a bit faster than than than we ultimately think.
- 52:37Speaker 3: And if it does, it's it's a positive for a Roma.
- 52:39Speaker 3: If not, even if they don't get tough four this season,
- 52:42Speaker 3: I think in their future it's definitely coming uh to
- 52:46Speaker 3: get back into Champions League.
- 52:49Speaker 1: A couple of draws in the city, I think five
- 52:51Speaker 1: in total. Genera lechazz started off pretty much the first
- 52:56Speaker 1: window of the weekend. Yeah, very exciting at Allanta in
- 53:00Speaker 1: that Pizza so Atalanta. We'll see, we'll see what happens
- 53:03Speaker 1: with your edge, but not the best start. One one
- 53:05Speaker 1: against Pizza utensea Verona. I think everyone knew this would
- 53:08Speaker 1: be a draw.
- 53:09Speaker 2: This is the most drawball game had probably the record
- 53:13Speaker 2: number of draws last season at next week and then
- 53:17Speaker 2: Kelly Fiorentina won one.
- 53:19Speaker 1: But Adrian the game. We need to talk about Milan
- 53:21Speaker 1: two win Crimines. Beautiful beautiful goal first of all goal
- 53:25Speaker 1: of the season already reminds me of Qualitia's goal. Who
- 53:29Speaker 1: is it against? Do you remember who's against?
- 53:32Speaker 4: The one?
- 53:33Speaker 2: Obviously when he was was samp I think it was
- 53:35Speaker 2: an eighteen nineteen season, was against Apoli.
- 53:37Speaker 3: But was it the one where the bachkillo and it
- 53:39Speaker 3: or or or would they do that? I don't remember
- 53:42Speaker 3: because the one with the bacchio there like.
- 53:44Speaker 1: That, that's a bit different.
- 53:45Speaker 4: That one was. That one was against not in Naples.
- 53:48Speaker 4: The other one I'm not I don't remember.
- 53:50Speaker 1: Uh you scored, Yeah, it scored a goal a bit
- 53:52Speaker 1: like boden Zoli. Uh did this this past weekend. But
- 53:56Speaker 1: anyways enough only scored for Crimines. Milan did get the
- 54:03Speaker 1: one go from Pavlovich. But shocker of the game right
- 54:06Speaker 1: for Melan, first game I get with a leg light
- 54:09Speaker 1: it out Adri.
- 54:12Speaker 3: Yeah, guys, where to start, I mean, like with like
- 54:15Speaker 3: the Mercato news and like you know, the the new
- 54:20Speaker 3: Milan if you will, under Allegri and and the new
- 54:24Speaker 3: signings and you know Madrich and this and like I
- 54:27Speaker 3: have you here there you know it Chittadino, right, I
- 54:30Speaker 3: have you Hereadino shout out to Chadino. Uh you know
- 54:35Speaker 3: Montreal Italian newspaper, right, since that's all right, it's been
- 54:41Speaker 3: since nineteen forty one, they've been around. So it says
- 54:43Speaker 3: here not an inter part of Forte milan loso. That's
- 54:47Speaker 3: what it says, right, if you guys can see, that's
- 54:51Speaker 3: what it says.
- 54:52Speaker 1: Uh.
- 54:53Speaker 3: So obviously a strong start. Like we said for Napu
- 54:55Speaker 3: an inter they said the same thing Mi and and
- 54:57Speaker 3: lotso fall right and.
- 55:01Speaker 4: Then they're right. It's it's it's it's exactly that.
- 55:04Speaker 1: Uh.
- 55:05Speaker 4: Just overall, I think just uh, just a terrible showing.
- 55:10Speaker 3: I think it's listen, we we knew Leo wasn't going
- 55:14Speaker 3: to be there for the for the match, I was
- 55:15Speaker 3: already said and again ultimately he won't be uh, he
- 55:18Speaker 3: won't be there for Friday's match against Letch as well
- 55:22Speaker 3: as decision to go with the three back to start
- 55:25Speaker 3: off the season is a formation that I hope that
- 55:30Speaker 3: he gets through it in his head fast that I
- 55:33Speaker 3: don't think it's it's a it's a formation for us.
- 55:36Speaker 1: Uh.
- 55:37Speaker 4: When it works, it works, but when it when it doesn't,
- 55:41Speaker 4: it's it's a it's a really, it's a it's a
- 55:43Speaker 4: bad look.
- 55:45Speaker 3: I know allegedly has the habit of kind of going
- 55:49Speaker 3: going with the old guard first rather than kind of
- 55:52Speaker 3: maybe bring in some of the youth or some of
- 55:54Speaker 3: the some of the newer signings, if you will. I
- 55:57Speaker 3: know a lot of fans were like, why is for
- 55:59Speaker 3: Funa and Ruben lofaschic on the field when you have
- 56:04Speaker 3: you know, Erdichi that you signed the guy Yashadi, Who's
- 56:07Speaker 3: who's young? Who could have who could have come in
- 56:10Speaker 3: and maybe started? Yeah, Shadi, I think I think it
- 56:12Speaker 3: was right that maybe he was on the bench, you know,
- 56:14Speaker 3: maybe to come in later. I think was was a
- 56:16Speaker 3: better idea. He came in a bit later, and I
- 56:19Speaker 3: think just to get acclimated with the group. I think
- 56:21Speaker 3: it was right that he made he was on the bench.
- 56:23Speaker 3: I think should have started the game. You wanna, you
- 56:25Speaker 3: wanna you want to include Modovich?
- 56:27Speaker 4: Okay, I get it. You know, ultimately he.
- 56:30Speaker 3: Was, you know, the best player on the pitch for
- 56:32Speaker 3: me one, you know, almost at forty years old, So
- 56:34Speaker 3: that obviously says something and it should be worrying, but
- 56:37Speaker 3: I think should have gotten some some minutes. He didn't
- 56:40Speaker 3: get any or did he come on at the end,
- 56:43Speaker 3: I don't remember now, but nonetheless, just not an opening
- 56:48Speaker 3: match that you wanted. I think our defense again, it's
- 56:52Speaker 3: been how many seasons I think it's been since the
- 56:54Speaker 3: school that to winning year that they've allowed way too
- 56:57Speaker 3: many goals and too many mistakes defensively that has ultimately
- 57:01Speaker 3: either costed them games, cost of them, seasons, cost of
- 57:05Speaker 3: them you know.
- 57:06Speaker 4: Champions League spats, scudett Ti.
- 57:08Speaker 3: Like in that, in that you know, aftermath of their
- 57:11Speaker 3: of their twenty one twenty two season.
- 57:15Speaker 4: It's just not good enough.
- 57:16Speaker 3: Like I get it, it's new new season, new coach,
- 57:20Speaker 3: new idea, match day one. But in no world, in
- 57:26Speaker 3: my opinion, should you be losing to Cremones at home.
- 57:30Speaker 3: There's there's no planet that you should be You should
- 57:33Speaker 3: be losing this this this match again, respect to to Cremones, okay,
- 57:39Speaker 3: but at home. Uh, Cremones new promoted team. Uh. They
- 57:45Speaker 3: have never won at They've never beat the Milan at
- 57:48Speaker 3: San Seero, they've drawn whatever, They've never won the first
- 57:52Speaker 3: one they've had that san Ziero against Milan. Uh, you know,
- 57:57Speaker 3: like what eut like you're better on paper, You're you
- 58:00Speaker 3: should be beating this team on the pitch. It's not
- 58:03Speaker 3: good enough. Like there's no world that you should be
- 58:05Speaker 3: losing in my opinion. You know what, I won't draw
- 58:09Speaker 3: like I mean, I don't. I wouldn't have been happy
- 58:11Speaker 3: even with the drug. I'm pissed, like it's you cannot
- 58:14Speaker 3: start a season like this. And a leg said it too,
- 58:18Speaker 3: you know, ultimately you can't let goals like that. Again, terrible.
- 58:23Speaker 3: The Basquerrotto goal not way Mania's fault. Nobody's marking basquer Rotto.
- 58:28Speaker 3: The guy is how fucking tall, how fucking big? He
- 58:32Speaker 3: has muscles like like you know, mister Olympia right, It's
- 58:37Speaker 3: it's ridiculous. And then he goes and flexes on he
- 58:41Speaker 3: he does.
- 58:41Speaker 4: The flex he does where he's flex you know.
- 58:44Speaker 3: He's showing the muscles. Mad nada there Like it's it's incredible. Again,
- 58:50Speaker 3: shout out to Johnny. I know Johnny has had some
- 58:51Speaker 3: high praise for Basquerotto in the past.
- 58:53Speaker 4: But again unmarked. Uh terrible. Uh. You know I know.
- 59:02Speaker 3: Pavlovich for me, I like him, but not like he cannot,
- 59:09Speaker 3: Like he's just still making boneheaded mistakes like ultimately out came.
- 59:12Speaker 3: Maybe he rebounded himself for or redeemed himself getting the goal. Okay, fine,
- 59:17Speaker 3: thank you, but just the mental errors defensively giving up
- 59:22Speaker 3: the ball, like the marking is like atrocious, he goes
- 59:26Speaker 3: up forward like he thinks he's like fucking you know,
- 59:30Speaker 3: or nine Ronaldo trying to go through that, like he's
- 59:32Speaker 3: not good with the ball at his feet, like he
- 59:34Speaker 3: cannot be in the back three. I think he's he's
- 59:37Speaker 3: a liability, and a lot of our defenders are liabilities
- 59:40Speaker 3: in the back three. I think with a bout four
- 59:43Speaker 3: it could work a bit better in my opinion. Again, ultimately,
- 59:47Speaker 3: I do think we need more help defensively because we know,
- 59:53Speaker 3: we know allegrity, like he wants to shore up the
- 59:56Speaker 3: defense and if he's going to score one goal or
- 1:00:00Speaker 3: maybe two to one that one nil type of results.
- 1:00:03Speaker 4: We know how he plays.
- 1:00:05Speaker 3: I think he does unlock some guys offensively too. But
- 1:00:09Speaker 3: with this three five two or whatever it was whatever
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: it was listed as, you cannot have Santi Menez and
- 1:00:18Speaker 3: and and uh puisage pointing up top together for for
- 1:00:22Speaker 3: for one Poisig looks totally out of position. It's not
- 1:00:26Speaker 3: his it's not his position. Like he's not a striker,
- 1:00:29Speaker 3: he's a winger. He could maybe play that that ten,
- 1:00:33Speaker 3: that cam position. He's He's shown it in Spurts last season.
- 1:00:38Speaker 3: He's not a right wing back, so you want to
- 1:00:40Speaker 3: play that three five two, he's not a wing back like, yeah,
- 1:00:42Speaker 3: he'll he'll track back defensively and work hard, but you
- 1:00:46Speaker 3: lose his ability. It kind of reminds me of when
- 1:00:50Speaker 3: Kiza was playing at that right wing back position and
- 1:00:52Speaker 3: we were arguing back and forth, well, he's not a
- 1:00:55Speaker 3: right wing back. He's a forward. He's a he's a winger.
- 1:00:57Speaker 3: He needs to go forward, he needs to try to
- 1:00:58Speaker 3: beat his man one on one.
- 1:01:00Speaker 4: Postage.
- 1:01:01Speaker 3: Is that same type of uh, you know profile he
- 1:01:05Speaker 3: cannot in my opinion, he can't play as a second striker.
- 1:01:09Speaker 3: He looks lost like he's not and he's a he's
- 1:01:12Speaker 3: one of our better players. Santi Menez, I'm with I
- 1:01:17Speaker 3: want him to do well. I think he can do well.
- 1:01:19Speaker 3: I don't think in this formation he looked terrible like
- 1:01:24Speaker 3: he allowed again, no disrespect to Basquirotto. He's he's a
- 1:01:29Speaker 3: he's a cult hero type of player, but he was
- 1:01:32Speaker 3: getting dog wocked by Basqui Rotto. He Bascuiotto had him
- 1:01:36Speaker 3: in his back pocket all game long. Besides the besides
- 1:01:39Speaker 3: the goal that ultimately he scored, which was called back offside,
- 1:01:43Speaker 3: great play by Modric.
- 1:01:45Speaker 4: He was he was non existent.
- 1:01:47Speaker 3: He was he was losing the ball, no build up play,
- 1:01:51Speaker 3: couldn't link up, couldn't get a shot on net.
- 1:01:56Speaker 4: He looked lost. Uh, just from top the ball them,
- 1:02:00Speaker 4: I think it was. It was terrible.
- 1:02:01Speaker 3: You know, ruben Loft is chic, and for Funa, I
- 1:02:03Speaker 3: know what's gonna a lot of heat, you know, rightfully sold.
- 1:02:08Speaker 3: You know, I don't mind them on the pitch, if
- 1:02:11Speaker 3: it be together, if it be not. I don't mind
- 1:02:14Speaker 3: them as players, but I think they're doing too much
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: for what they for what their skill sets are. And
- 1:02:20Speaker 3: I saw somewhere and again I don't know who asked it,
- 1:02:22Speaker 3: or how it was asked, or or what probe the
- 1:02:25Speaker 3: allegrity to say this, but I had seen a quote.
- 1:02:28Speaker 3: You know, for me, I want to have a successful season.
- 1:02:31Speaker 3: They need ruben Loft his cheek and for Fana to
- 1:02:36Speaker 3: combine for fifteen goals combined between the two of them.
- 1:02:40Speaker 4: If that is what like in this whole season, if
- 1:02:44Speaker 4: that is what.
- 1:02:45Speaker 3: It's going to put us over the edge, we might
- 1:02:48Speaker 3: as well close the close the bags now close and
- 1:02:51Speaker 3: call it and call it a season now, because that
- 1:02:53Speaker 3: cannot be You're asking ruben Loft is chic and for
- 1:02:58Speaker 3: Funa to score you fifteen to kind of try to
- 1:03:01Speaker 3: replicate of what Reindeers did last season to put you
- 1:03:03Speaker 3: over the edge for them. For me on twelve, it's
- 1:03:05Speaker 3: a successful season. If that's the case, we're in for
- 1:03:08Speaker 3: a fucking ride. The prediction of Milan winning school that
- 1:03:11Speaker 3: though it might be you know, one for the past,
- 1:03:15Speaker 3: ultimately again Week one, match Day one, bumpy, I get it,
- 1:03:22Speaker 3: I think in I also saw somewhere with Aleg's tenure
- 1:03:27Speaker 3: with Milan, every first match that he's had was never
- 1:03:31Speaker 3: a win. He's either lost or drawn the two times
- 1:03:35Speaker 3: the seasons that he was previously with Milan the tens
- 1:03:41Speaker 3: to twelves there, and this season he's never won. So
- 1:03:46Speaker 3: is that something to kind of maybe put a little
- 1:03:49Speaker 3: bit of a you know, a bandit on this kind
- 1:03:53Speaker 3: of result. Maybe, But at the same time, it shouldn't be,
- 1:03:56Speaker 3: like I said, in no world should we be losing
- 1:03:58Speaker 3: to Cremonese now we promoted at home.
- 1:04:02Speaker 4: That for me is a big no no, Like you
- 1:04:04Speaker 4: cannot start the season like that.
- 1:04:06Speaker 3: I think this team has to recognize that because I
- 1:04:08Speaker 3: think ultimately the team has quality in multiple positions and whatnot.
- 1:04:18Speaker 3: I hope this isn't a sign of them being Raphaell dependent,
- 1:04:25Speaker 3: but they need to get goals. They need to stop
- 1:04:27Speaker 3: leaking defensively, and you can't let Mike Manuol out to
- 1:04:30Speaker 3: dry every time, because both goals ultimately not marked Basqueroto
- 1:04:36Speaker 3: and not marked Bonozoi. He hits that Metzarovi Shata. It's
- 1:04:41Speaker 3: only against me one he scores like this. Only against Milan.
- 1:04:45Speaker 3: He scored when he was a Sitan in twenty twenty two,
- 1:04:47Speaker 3: he scored the same fucking way. Now for Cremonese he
- 1:04:51Speaker 3: scores the same way. He's an interista.
- 1:04:54Speaker 4: I know, we I don't like it, but only against
- 1:04:57Speaker 4: me when he scores this.
- 1:04:59Speaker 3: So it's a shame. It's it's it's it's a big
- 1:05:03Speaker 3: shame for me. It's it's really not good enough.
- 1:05:08Speaker 4: Uh.
- 1:05:09Speaker 3: You know, I was listening to our boys, uh you
- 1:05:13Speaker 3: know at me one weekly podcast, Steven Vinnie.
- 1:05:17Speaker 4: You know they mentioned, you know that there's a lot
- 1:05:19Speaker 4: of holes in in this uh, in this melan boat. Uh.
- 1:05:22Speaker 3: And the quicker they're able to fix this, the less
- 1:05:26Speaker 3: likely it's going to be like the Titanic, Right, It's
- 1:05:29Speaker 3: that that will be ultimately what what's what's gonna save me?
- 1:05:32Speaker 4: One again?
- 1:05:34Speaker 3: One game a week, an experienced manager who ultimately knows
- 1:05:39Speaker 3: how to win, especially in this league. I think it's
- 1:05:42Speaker 3: one of their saving graces. But this team needs to
- 1:05:47Speaker 3: needs to get acclimated together quickly. They need to put
- 1:05:52Speaker 3: these games in the past, and they need to start off,
- 1:05:54Speaker 3: start off on a better foot. And then a lot
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: of fans were saying, oh, well, look, how okay. Now
- 1:06:00Speaker 3: we started last season and they won the school deeto.
- 1:06:02Speaker 3: But guys, if that's what we're banking on, that's not
- 1:06:04Speaker 3: a way to look forward into the future. Yes, that
- 1:06:08Speaker 3: could happen, Like don't get me wrong, anything is possible,
- 1:06:11Speaker 3: but if you want to be serious, you have to
- 1:06:14Speaker 3: start off on the right foot. You cannot you cannot
- 1:06:17Speaker 3: start this way. A lot of bad performances, like I said,
- 1:06:21Speaker 3: Stupan looked, I don't know. It was like Mezza the
- 1:06:29Speaker 3: Medsa he was on it the Medsa like he like
- 1:06:32Speaker 3: he got the assist on the pavlovitchc goal. Okay, yes,
- 1:06:34Speaker 3: I know, but half the other times he looked fucking lost.
- 1:06:40Speaker 3: I think Malditch, I think that was like the big
- 1:06:42Speaker 3: that was the big uh you know, the big positive
- 1:06:47Speaker 3: if you will, I mean thirty nine going on forty,
- 1:06:49Speaker 3: and he's the best player on the pitch. It's it's again,
- 1:06:51Speaker 3: like I said, it's saying something, but you just see
- 1:06:54Speaker 3: his quality. Uh you know, uh the ball that put
- 1:07:00Speaker 3: in for for for Santi Menez, who again, like I said,
- 1:07:03Speaker 3: ultimately call offside.
- 1:07:05Speaker 4: It was a hell of a ball. Just his his
- 1:07:08Speaker 4: eye for for for build up play. He's just a true.
- 1:07:14Speaker 3: A true midfielder, a true you know, a true legend,
- 1:07:18Speaker 3: a true h true you know, top player.
- 1:07:21Speaker 4: It's it's it's evident. I'm hoping again with point only
- 1:07:26Speaker 4: once a week.
- 1:07:27Speaker 3: I hope he could manage his minutes accordingly so he's
- 1:07:30Speaker 3: able to play as much as he can.
- 1:07:33Speaker 4: But yeah, it's it shouldn't be that. You know, we
- 1:07:36Speaker 4: have we've spent money and and.
- 1:07:40Speaker 3: We worked to be spending a lot more money because
- 1:07:43Speaker 3: this Malcato is not closed and we need a lot
- 1:07:44Speaker 3: more pieces to to add to this puzzle. But you know,
- 1:07:49Speaker 3: you have money on the bench and in Yashari and
- 1:07:51Speaker 3: and and RICHI that you know, I think fans will
- 1:07:56Speaker 3: wanted them to see on the pitch, and it wasn't
- 1:07:58Speaker 3: to be.
- 1:07:58Speaker 4: And again I think, like I said earlier, the three
- 1:08:01Speaker 4: five two.
- 1:08:03Speaker 3: It works maybe for certain players, but I don't think
- 1:08:05Speaker 3: you can incorporate your best players like like I said,
- 1:08:09Speaker 3: like the poolsitch, it's not for him.
- 1:08:11Speaker 4: I would like maybe I saw Roma's formation.
- 1:08:16Speaker 3: And again I don't want to you know, uh, you
- 1:08:19Speaker 3: know coffeepaste.
- 1:08:20Speaker 4: What Roma's doing.
- 1:08:21Speaker 3: But you know the the four three two one kind
- 1:08:24Speaker 3: of the Christmas Tree formation. Uh, it could work because
- 1:08:29Speaker 3: you know, you have your three midfielders. You kind of
- 1:08:31Speaker 3: have you know, layout and poolstage behind a guy like
- 1:08:35Speaker 3: Santimenez who needs service. He's not a guy that seems
- 1:08:39Speaker 3: to be able to create on his own. He needs
- 1:08:41Speaker 3: the service to be able to be efficient. I think
- 1:08:44Speaker 3: it can work or just go back to the four
- 1:08:46Speaker 3: three three. Uh, it's it's almost as simple as that.
- 1:08:49Speaker 3: It's because it's embarrassing when you know you're getting you're
- 1:08:53Speaker 3: getting schooled by by cremones out of all teams newly
- 1:08:56Speaker 3: promoted at home. Like I said, so, I think hopefully
- 1:09:01Speaker 3: they learned their lesson. Hopefully new on fans can uh
- 1:09:06Speaker 3: can you know, guys, I know I'm pissed. I know
- 1:09:10Speaker 3: you guys are pissed whoever's listening out there, but uh,
- 1:09:13Speaker 3: we we we have to, we have to remain somewhat
- 1:09:16Speaker 3: positive at the same grand scheme of things, because it's
- 1:09:20Speaker 3: gonna be a long season if we're gonna be pissed
- 1:09:21Speaker 3: week in and week out.
- 1:09:22Speaker 4: So I hear the frustrations, and I'm just as frustrated, but.
- 1:09:29Speaker 3: You know, hope, I'm hopeful that with these last what
- 1:09:32Speaker 3: is it four or five days of the mercato, like
- 1:09:35Speaker 3: we were saying, Nick, hopefully they can.
- 1:09:37Speaker 4: They've They've been in the news every every time I
- 1:09:41Speaker 4: go on Twitter.
- 1:09:41Speaker 3: It's like a new new thing, new new new notification
- 1:09:45Speaker 3: of of their going to this player, he's coming in.
- 1:09:48Speaker 4: They've agreed on terms. This is the mod like what
- 1:09:52Speaker 4: what what it happened?
- 1:09:55Speaker 3: I think they need it because ultimately, if if we're
- 1:10:00Speaker 3: getting beat by Kremones a week one, hm, you know,
- 1:10:06Speaker 3: and and players are not up to up to up
- 1:10:09Speaker 3: to scratch, we might need to still dig into this mercato,
- 1:10:13Speaker 3: uh to to maybe save some of our you know,
- 1:10:17Speaker 3: early early season struggles. So I think after the international break,
- 1:10:25Speaker 3: because I think on Friday we play le.
- 1:10:28Speaker 4: Again, No disrespect to Ledha, but it has to be
- 1:10:32Speaker 4: a win. They cannot go.
- 1:10:33Speaker 3: They cannot start the season playing Kremones and Leche and
- 1:10:38Speaker 3: have zero points. It can't it can't be.
- 1:10:41Speaker 4: It has to.
- 1:10:42Speaker 3: It should have been six. We'll have to We'll have
- 1:10:45Speaker 3: to settle for three, but it cannot be zero. So
- 1:10:47Speaker 3: I'm hopeful for me on two to step up on
- 1:10:51Speaker 3: Friday and uh and put on a better shift because
- 1:10:54Speaker 3: what we saw on Saturday wash was nowhere near good enough.
- 1:10:59Speaker 2: Uh Yeah, And you know you kind of mentioned the
- 1:11:01Speaker 2: mercado stuff one thing I you know, wanted to quickly
- 1:11:04Speaker 2: talk about before we wrap it up.
- 1:11:06Speaker 4: Adri.
- 1:11:06Speaker 2: It's just funny that, I mean, we go through this
- 1:11:10Speaker 2: every year, but it's just funny that the mercato is
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: still going on. We played two games. There's many players
- 1:11:15Speaker 2: who have played in these two games who are gonna
- 1:11:18Speaker 2: leave before the deadline in a couple of days. It
- 1:11:22Speaker 2: just it's just it's just weird, I think, you know,
- 1:11:25Speaker 2: especially with the international break coming up. Why don't they
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: just flip it just through the international break first end
- 1:11:32Speaker 2: of August and then you get the season under Wayne September.
- 1:11:35Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, maybe you.
- 1:11:36Speaker 2: Have to push the week back by the season back
- 1:11:38Speaker 2: by a week in May. Maybe you have to throw
- 1:11:41Speaker 2: it an extra mid midweek game in here in the
- 1:11:44Speaker 2: middle of the season. Why can't we what and this
- 1:11:49Speaker 2: is loon just city at right, Adrie, it's all the
- 1:11:51Speaker 2: European leagues, Premier League as well, played three games before
- 1:11:55Speaker 2: the end of the summer, the summer chass for window.
- 1:11:58Speaker 2: At this point, man, just just let the teams figure
- 1:12:01Speaker 2: it out first, let them get their final rosters in
- 1:12:04Speaker 2: and then we could we could start games.
- 1:12:07Speaker 3: I totally agree. And I know I saw we've started it,
- 1:12:11Speaker 3: you know, off air, and we've seen it on the news,
- 1:12:13Speaker 3: uh you know, on Twitter or wherever just in in
- 1:12:17Speaker 3: the journalism and all that. But uh, Italiano from I
- 1:12:22Speaker 3: was was very vocal about it. I saw even Stefano
- 1:12:26Speaker 3: was was was was mentioning it. Why are we starting
- 1:12:31Speaker 3: the seti as season and they're.
- 1:12:33Speaker 4: Still the Metcato to play. It should not be that way.
- 1:12:36Speaker 3: And you know what, I I know Nick agrees, and
- 1:12:39Speaker 3: I'm gonna have to jump onto that board both as well.
- 1:12:42Speaker 4: I agree as well, because it's it's crazy.
- 1:12:45Speaker 3: You go through a preseason, right like you go through
- 1:12:48Speaker 3: a pre like you go to a preseason with basically
- 1:12:52Speaker 3: your squad, but you're not sure.
- 1:12:53Speaker 4: Maybe it's your squad, maybe it's not, who knows. Then
- 1:12:57Speaker 4: you go to match day.
- 1:12:59Speaker 3: Uh two, after match j two, okay, international break, Okay,
- 1:13:03Speaker 3: you come back match dight three, it's you know what
- 1:13:05Speaker 3: is it the middle beginning middle of September, and now
- 1:13:10Speaker 3: it's now.
- 1:13:11Speaker 4: Your officially you have your your your official roster. It
- 1:13:15Speaker 4: does not make sense.
- 1:13:16Speaker 3: And again, maybe we've never I don't think we've ever
- 1:13:18Speaker 3: really brought it up on the show before, or maybe
- 1:13:20Speaker 3: we have, I just don't remember, but or maybe we
- 1:13:23Speaker 3: just we got so accustomed to it being this way
- 1:13:25Speaker 3: that we don't know better. I think maybe that now
- 1:13:28Speaker 3: that it's been more in the news, it's kind of
- 1:13:30Speaker 3: maybe more of a talking point. But if you really
- 1:13:32Speaker 3: break it down, guys, it doesn't It doesn't make all
- 1:13:35Speaker 3: too much sense because if you if you, if you
- 1:13:39Speaker 3: look at it for what it is that this player, this,
- 1:13:43Speaker 3: these players that are coming that might come in or
- 1:13:46Speaker 3: might leave. More of the ones that are coming in,
- 1:13:49Speaker 3: because the ones that leave, okay, whatever, you you made
- 1:13:51Speaker 3: your money on them, or you didn't. You took a loss,
- 1:13:53Speaker 3: or you took whatever money you can for them, or
- 1:13:56Speaker 3: they're going out a loan or what have you.
- 1:13:57Speaker 4: Okay, fine, so be it.
- 1:13:59Speaker 3: But the players that you're bringing in, they now have
- 1:14:02Speaker 3: to get acclimated to the country. They have to get
- 1:14:06Speaker 3: acclimitted to the the league, they have to get accummitted
- 1:14:10Speaker 3: to the coach, the teammates, the.
- 1:14:15Speaker 4: Fans, the culture, the the ambiance.
- 1:14:18Speaker 3: They have to get And it's fucking match day three,
- 1:14:21Speaker 3: four and five, and we're wondering why they suck.
- 1:14:24Speaker 4: Well, no kidding, they have no preseason with the team.
- 1:14:27Speaker 4: They don't.
- 1:14:27Speaker 3: They have only the limited you know, training sessions from
- 1:14:32Speaker 3: you know, when they come at deadline day, and you know,
- 1:14:34Speaker 3: by the time they get acclimated, it's maybe, you know,
- 1:14:38Speaker 3: I don't know, depends the player. It could be six
- 1:14:40Speaker 3: seven games down the stretch or never. Right, we saw,
- 1:14:44Speaker 3: you know, the lady for Milan, he never really got
- 1:14:48Speaker 3: he never really got going.
- 1:14:49Speaker 4: With the team. He goes to Atlanta, it's a different
- 1:14:52Speaker 4: situation for him. Right, So.
- 1:14:55Speaker 3: Again I think we're on the on this boat of
- 1:14:57Speaker 3: maybe the Mecato should shouldn't start, shouldn't sorry, should end
- 1:15:05Speaker 3: before the city season starts, or it should be coinciding
- 1:15:09Speaker 3: within you know, the MCATO wins this day, the season
- 1:15:13Speaker 3: should start the next day or two days later, whatever
- 1:15:16Speaker 3: you want to however you want to schedule it, because
- 1:15:19Speaker 3: now looking at it, it just doesn't really make sense.
- 1:15:21Speaker 4: And you know, there's so many players that are are
- 1:15:25Speaker 4: being linked and I mean, I just you know.
- 1:15:30Speaker 3: Is Valvach I'm going to have a future with with
- 1:15:34Speaker 3: with u of A is gonna come back. They're they're
- 1:15:38Speaker 3: mentioning that I saw, I saw the rumors there. It's
- 1:15:40Speaker 3: a loan obligation to buy. It's like a sixty million
- 1:15:43Speaker 3: dollar package deal at the end.
- 1:15:45Speaker 4: Of it, if it all goes well again.
- 1:15:49Speaker 3: Granted, okay, you know Colum Money had a season last year,
- 1:15:52Speaker 3: he knows the group, he knows the manager. Okay, that's
- 1:15:54Speaker 3: an ideal situation, but still you're still bringing him in.
- 1:15:57Speaker 3: Last second. Now, Milan's in trouble bow with having to
- 1:16:01Speaker 3: still fill holes that they've seen in these first this
- 1:16:04Speaker 3: first match day and they'll probably still see on Friday
- 1:16:07Speaker 3: in match day two that they're still hold to Phil
- 1:16:10Speaker 3: and now it's last minute.
- 1:16:12Speaker 4: I just don't like the last minute of it. You know.
- 1:16:15Speaker 3: Uh, there's rumors, Oh my god, there's it's like a
- 1:16:19Speaker 3: long list of rumors for for Miland. It's Vlauvich, it's
- 1:16:22Speaker 3: a rabio, it's uh, you know in kum Ku from
- 1:16:28Speaker 3: from Chelsea. It's uh who a kanji from from city.
- 1:16:34Speaker 3: They went to go ring, uh you know, Kim and
- 1:16:37Speaker 3: Jay to come and bring him back, uh to to say,
- 1:16:41Speaker 3: you know, Byron refused. They wanted to bring in Bonnie Face.
- 1:16:45Speaker 3: What a fucking soap opera that was. This was like
- 1:16:50Speaker 3: an episode of Days of Our Lives or something. This
- 1:16:53Speaker 3: is is fucking bananas. The guy, I don't I don't
- 1:16:57Speaker 3: you bring him to Milano.
- 1:16:59Speaker 4: To do the medicals. He does multiple medicals.
- 1:17:02Speaker 3: He has a fucked up knee, he's done, he's touring
- 1:17:04Speaker 3: his a cl twice. You can put all this spotlight
- 1:17:09Speaker 3: on him. You travel them from Germany, you bring him
- 1:17:11Speaker 3: to Milano. If he jumps on a Ryan air fight,
- 1:17:15Speaker 3: it's probably a couple of what is it ten euros
- 1:17:17Speaker 3: whatever and it's not even that expensive, right, But what
- 1:17:21Speaker 3: a fucking saga that is just for just for you
- 1:17:24Speaker 3: to ultimately send them back home and say, you know what,
- 1:17:27Speaker 3: your knees a bit fucked up. We knew it was
- 1:17:29Speaker 3: fucked up, but we're still gonna bring you and basically
- 1:17:32Speaker 3: embarrassed this whole situation and send you back to Germany
- 1:17:37Speaker 3: and say, you know, pretty much the deals off. You know,
- 1:17:39Speaker 3: yes you passed the medical, but your knees are a
- 1:17:41Speaker 3: bit fucking still weird. So we're not gonna go forward
- 1:17:44Speaker 3: with this, and we'll go other directions. Now, then you're
- 1:17:48Speaker 3: linked to it's almost across the line for this fucking
- 1:17:52Speaker 3: what's this guy's name, Conrad Harder, like besides having no
- 1:17:59Speaker 3: that's his name, the sporting kid from the Danish the
- 1:18:02Speaker 3: young Danish fucking striker from sporting in Portugal, Conrad Harder,
- 1:18:08Speaker 3: if Harder and again I'm gonna go take a page
- 1:18:11Speaker 3: out of the MEWE Weekly Podcast boys book, because I
- 1:18:14Speaker 3: was listening to them the other night. Go follow them
- 1:18:17Speaker 3: if you're not already the great, great guys that we
- 1:18:19Speaker 3: know personally, and you know, just great content that they
- 1:18:22Speaker 3: put up from you on.
- 1:18:23Speaker 4: But besides having like the best porn o name.
- 1:18:29Speaker 3: In the world, right, Conrad Harder, Apparently it's hard there,
- 1:18:34Speaker 3: But in fucking our world it's Conrad Harder.
- 1:18:39Speaker 4: There's no hard there or whatever however you.
- 1:18:42Speaker 3: Want to pronounce it, like that is for fucking you
- 1:18:45Speaker 3: know those those you know, sneaky sites, right those that's
- 1:18:49Speaker 3: where that belongs, that name belongs. Eh, we're linked to
- 1:18:53Speaker 3: him and it's across the line. And now no, we're
- 1:18:56Speaker 3: gonna block that because I like, we want's Vlaovich and
- 1:18:59Speaker 3: they want to in kun Ku from Chelsea. It's you know,
- 1:19:04Speaker 3: they want a Rabio, but he doesn't want to leave Marseille.
- 1:19:07Speaker 3: But his mother is a fucking hard headed testa dura
- 1:19:10Speaker 3: to fucking uh to to to discuss with for his
- 1:19:15Speaker 3: wages and for this and that to do business with.
- 1:19:18Speaker 3: It's like and now the season already started, it's going
- 1:19:22Speaker 3: to be match day two. We're still having this fucking
- 1:19:24Speaker 3: Days of our Lives soap opera. So you know, I'm
- 1:19:29Speaker 3: speaking on.
- 1:19:29Speaker 4: The mean part.
- 1:19:30Speaker 3: But I know there's all other teams probably out there
- 1:19:31Speaker 3: that are facing this, this, this this scenario as well.
- 1:19:37Speaker 3: Do I like some of the profiles that they're going
- 1:19:39Speaker 3: after in this last stretch of the Mercato. I think
- 1:19:43Speaker 3: Taddy is doing a good job in terms of you know,
- 1:19:46Speaker 3: convincing guys to come. You know, we finally have a
- 1:19:49Speaker 3: Direttisportivo that is working well. I think he's able to
- 1:19:55Speaker 3: sell off some players for fees that I didn't think
- 1:19:57Speaker 3: we were able to sell off on.
- 1:20:00Speaker 4: You know, so.
- 1:20:02Speaker 3: I don't see why they don't want to spend the
- 1:20:05Speaker 3: bucks to get what Allegy wants. You guys are playing
- 1:20:09Speaker 3: one game a week. This cannot be the headline every week.
- 1:20:18Speaker 4: That paper.
- 1:20:20Speaker 3: Shout out, guys, shout out if you if you know,
- 1:20:22Speaker 3: if you're if you know, you know, if you're Montreal,
- 1:20:24Speaker 3: you definitely know. Uh, it cannot be the headline every
- 1:20:27Speaker 3: every week. You know, I don't get the gazetto the
- 1:20:29Speaker 3: little sport, but you know, it can't be the headline
- 1:20:33Speaker 3: every week, you know, Milan or whatever it's. You know,
- 1:20:38Speaker 3: it can be no green, no heart. It can't be
- 1:20:40Speaker 3: where we're not. We have a half of Medcat that
- 1:20:42Speaker 3: we're still trying to get recoup, recouperate players. I know
- 1:20:47Speaker 3: I went on a bit of a rant there, but
- 1:20:49Speaker 3: it's it's, it's it can be. I'm hopeful that it
- 1:20:54Speaker 3: all gets settled. Uh And and I think allegory gets
- 1:20:58Speaker 3: you know, what, what do you what do you not
- 1:21:00Speaker 3: everything he wants. I don't think it's that's probably maybe
- 1:21:02Speaker 3: a bit unrealistic. But get him the profiles that make sense,
- 1:21:05Speaker 3: that maybe are cost efficient, that can can work with
- 1:21:10Speaker 3: this with this squad, and uh, we need another number nine.
- 1:21:13Speaker 3: And the players that were going after besides Volvich aren't
- 1:21:16Speaker 3: really number nine. It's like true number ninees like in
- 1:21:19Speaker 3: Kunku is a forward, yes, but he's not really a
- 1:21:21Speaker 3: number nine. Like you're gonna pair him with Santi Menez
- 1:21:24Speaker 3: and he's gonna look like Poolstitch looked on on match
- 1:21:28Speaker 3: one against Cremonez. It's not gonna work, you know. I
- 1:21:31Speaker 3: like to see when they out comes back what this
- 1:21:34Speaker 3: mealon looks like, you know. So hopefully the Merkato mannis Uh.
- 1:21:40Speaker 3: I guess it's going to continue for these next four
- 1:21:42Speaker 3: or five days. I know we're recording this and it's
- 1:21:44Speaker 3: still still open the Merkato and by the time our
- 1:21:48Speaker 3: next episode airs, you know, the Merkato will will will
- 1:21:51Speaker 3: be over. But it's uh, it's just you know, it's
- 1:21:58Speaker 3: it's these deals that are that are that are stalling,
- 1:22:00Speaker 3: that are and get me a bit nervous. So hopefully
- 1:22:03Speaker 3: they go through and uh, you know we're we're singing
- 1:22:06Speaker 3: a different tune and you know, next to next episode.
- 1:22:08Speaker 4: So yeah, that's pretty much pretty much it.
- 1:22:13Speaker 3: I don't know if I don't know if if you
- 1:22:15Speaker 3: want to add just for I saw the like I said,
- 1:22:19Speaker 3: columb Money, and I saw that as the good old
- 1:22:20Speaker 3: of a guy from Lee that wing. I'm not too
- 1:22:22Speaker 3: familiar with him, but apparently everybody's ranting and raving at Yeah.
- 1:22:26Speaker 4: I don't.
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: Yeah, honestly, Like I think I told you this before.
- 1:22:29Speaker 1: With transfers, at this point, it's like when the team posted.
- 1:22:33Speaker 3: You know, even you went, you went president, the Marcelle
- 1:22:37Speaker 3: would have to shake hands the same way after all.
- 1:22:40Speaker 2: These years of following these these transfer rumors, and it's
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: like not being disappointed, but for sure there's names in
- 1:22:47Speaker 2: the past that we're supposed to come and it's as
- 1:22:51Speaker 2: if they already bought a house in Toronto and then
- 1:22:53Speaker 2: they never played for you you know. Yeah, I the
- 1:22:58Speaker 2: colomb Moani situation has been annoying, but because it's like
- 1:23:03Speaker 2: it's a player that we already saw and we know.
- 1:23:06Speaker 1: He fits in the system, and I know you wants him,
- 1:23:09Speaker 1: But then I feel like because that they can't move
- 1:23:12Speaker 1: on from.
- 1:23:13Speaker 2: Because once they get qual money, qual the money, I
- 1:23:15Speaker 2: feel like they're gonna move on from right away. And
- 1:23:18Speaker 2: because you can't go into the season with David qual money.
- 1:23:21Speaker 1: And and volvage right.
- 1:23:23Speaker 4: Especially with the wages that evolved.
- 1:23:25Speaker 1: Is fucking exactly twelve million, like exactly for him to
- 1:23:30Speaker 1: sit on the bench, it's.
- 1:23:31Speaker 4: You might as well throw your money in the toilet.
- 1:23:33Speaker 1: Like yeah, like fine, he's he's the best backup striker
- 1:23:37Speaker 1: in the world at this point.
- 1:23:39Speaker 4: But unless they played together, but I don't.
- 1:23:42Speaker 1: Know if he's not. They're they're both they're both hungry.
- 1:23:45Speaker 1: They're both hungry types, and I don't see them playing together. Yeah,
- 1:23:49Speaker 1: so that that's been frustrating. Other than that, like I
- 1:23:52Speaker 1: don't see you doing many more transfers, Like like you
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: said that that wing you're there, but we'll see.
- 1:23:56Speaker 2: I think I think we might see more players out
- 1:23:58Speaker 2: like Unko Guns he's rumored to go to Atletico Madrid.
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: But then again, it's like if you have a player
- 1:24:05Speaker 1: leave so late in the transfer window, you gotta know
- 1:24:08Speaker 1: you're gonna have that depth. You know you're you're selling
- 1:24:11Speaker 1: because you want to sell them.
- 1:24:13Speaker 3: He's got I think that there doesn't even staffone and
- 1:24:15Speaker 3: starting to cut you off even stafone, and I saw
- 1:24:16Speaker 3: with not was it Nightingham Forest or one of these
- 1:24:18Speaker 3: uh yeah, English teams. I saw that deal might go
- 1:24:21Speaker 3: through for between fifteen and twenty million. So again I guess,
- 1:24:26Speaker 3: making money when you can, I I guess. But uh,
- 1:24:30Speaker 3: he didn't, he didn't, he didn't play.
- 1:24:32Speaker 4: On on Saturday. I don't believe.
- 1:24:35Speaker 1: No, no, I don't think so. I don't not that
- 1:24:37Speaker 1: I remember.
- 1:24:38Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, yeah, one more already, one more game
- 1:24:43Speaker 2: until the international break Italy plays.
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: I think was it Sony is and Israel this time around?
- 1:24:49Speaker 1: So we'll talk about that next week, hopefully with Johnny
- 1:24:53Speaker 1: when Johnny's back. But is fun on the billow a
- 1:24:55Speaker 1: little bit old school, just me and you.
- 1:24:58Speaker 2: Uh we had a lot of talk, but right an
- 1:25:00Speaker 2: hour and a half just ranting about pretty much forty
- 1:25:03Speaker 2: five minutes just about me.
- 1:25:04Speaker 4: Line.
- 1:25:06Speaker 3: Wow, when you start off the season the way you did,
- 1:25:08Speaker 3: I think it's only right that you're like, we could
- 1:25:10Speaker 3: do a whole episode if you want, but we'll try
- 1:25:12Speaker 3: to be a bit broad and uh, you know, kind
- 1:25:16Speaker 3: of speak about everybody, just kind of like we used
- 1:25:17Speaker 3: to do back in back in the day is a
- 1:25:19Speaker 3: bit more. I always like when we talk a bit
- 1:25:21Speaker 3: about everybody because you know, this this league is so
- 1:25:25Speaker 3: exciting and there's so much talking points to to to
- 1:25:27Speaker 3: add and I know we probably forgotten many things.
- 1:25:31Speaker 4: Many more transfer rumors, you know, I saw, I saw
- 1:25:36Speaker 4: so many other ones.
- 1:25:37Speaker 3: But it's just you know, it's it's it's crazy, all
- 1:25:43Speaker 3: the all the all the transf rumors. What I did
- 1:25:47Speaker 3: like was a lot of the debuts that a lot
- 1:25:49Speaker 3: of the new players got, uh in Sadiya, A lot
- 1:25:52Speaker 3: of the players coming back from injury playing well, you
- 1:25:55Speaker 3: mentioned Bremer. I know, Skamaka came back, you know, four
- 1:25:58Speaker 3: hundred and fifty five days later, and and he gets
- 1:26:00Speaker 3: back onto the score sheet again, getting his minutes at Atalanta,
- 1:26:04Speaker 3: which ultimately, if Atalanta want to have somewhat of a
- 1:26:08Speaker 3: saving grace, I think he has to stay healthy. His
- 1:26:10Speaker 3: track record doesn't really show that, but if they want to,
- 1:26:13Speaker 3: if you know, if he stays healthy, I think they
- 1:26:17Speaker 3: can they can do some decent something decent. Uh, they
- 1:26:21Speaker 3: will fall, but I think they can maybe not fall
- 1:26:23Speaker 3: too hard if he stays healthy and gets those goals.
- 1:26:26Speaker 3: But yeah, just like so many, so many topics like
- 1:26:30Speaker 3: we touched upon and from the contained Canadian contingent and
- 1:26:36Speaker 3: I guess shout off to Tejon Buchanan, former City up
- 1:26:38Speaker 3: player getting his hat trick right you get in the
- 1:26:41Speaker 3: in the ta for for Villa Reale there.
- 1:26:44Speaker 1: May shouldn't let him go, they would want to eat
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: nothing against.
- 1:26:47Speaker 4: You and five. Uh, but hey it is where it
- 1:26:51Speaker 4: is again. Happy to see set back.
- 1:26:55Speaker 1: Uh.
