Transcript
- 0:00It made you just question your own team, it made you question
- 0:03your own league, it made you question football.
- 0:06Like he's a good player, but not when you cost 125 million.
- 0:09You should be better than that. I don't care.
- 0:10It's like first season and nice car stuff.
- 0:13Like look at some of the players who come to the Premier League
- 0:15for the first season who cost half the price.
- 0:17So he's going to score now, isn't it?
- 0:19How? Are we fellow Reds?
- 0:20It's the big one, United, Liverpool or Trafford, and
- 0:24you're back with Span and Jazz to preview it before we get

- 0:46welcome. But Jazz, we're back.
- 0:48The sun's shining and we're getting into a big one.
- 0:51United, the Liverpool. But before we do, let's just
- 0:54look at what's been going on since we last spoke when we
- 0:57reviewed the Brentford game. A little bit of Champions League
- 1:01football. Yeah, not a bad game, right?
- 1:06I don't know if you watched it or not, but I watched it and I'm
- 1:09just like that were at least attacking wise, I was like, Oh
- 1:14my God, the levels above everyone in the Premier League
- 1:17at the moment is insane. Just like the goals they were
- 1:20scoring. Like I'm trying trying to think
- 1:24defensively were they horrendous?
- 1:27Sort of it was, but then also is it made to look horrendous
- 1:31because the attacking players are so good and they're given
- 1:33the freedom to actually play football?
- 1:35They just made you think like, this is what the Premier League
- 1:37used to be like, yeah, like free flying football.
- 1:39But now we're just kind of system obsessed.
- 1:41And it was just such a refreshing game to watch.
- 1:43Like, I was just watching it last night.
- 1:45Every couple of seconds there's a pretty goal is and most of the
- 1:49time good goals as well. There's only really just in case
- 1:51you've been living under a rock, we are not talking about
- 1:54Arsenal, the Athletico Madrid. We are talking about PSG versus
- 1:57Bayern Munich, which was an incredible 54.
- 2:00But yeah, I agree with it. Watching it, it made you just
- 2:04question your own team. It made you question your own
- 2:06league. It made you question football
- 2:09because I was like, we'd never see that do it not.
- 2:12Not anymore as you say, anyway. No, and I think I think I saw a
- 2:17start the other day that there's been no nose, no games or six
- 2:23goals. I mean this season in the
- 2:25Premier League and we used to get games like 5 balls and
- 2:29things like that and I really exciting games.
- 2:30It's just like that's just disappeared and maybe it's
- 2:33because of the system based football and there's there's not
- 2:37many players given the freedom anymore to express themselves.
- 2:40Like, I guess like Cherky, for example, is maybe one of the few
- 2:44who's doing Turkey things, but I don't I don't even know if he's
- 2:47allowed to do that. I think he's just a bit of a
- 2:48maverick and just does what he wants.
- 2:49Yeah, I just want a bit more of that really.
- 2:51Don't you from from because the players obviously have the
- 2:53skills and the time to do so, but they just seemed scared and
- 2:58locked into these these systems. And it's yeah, it's a bit sad
- 3:01really, isn't it? And then you see that game.
- 3:02He's like, well, it doesn't have to be like that.
- 3:05Yeah, you mentioned it and I think it's because you, you've
- 3:07probably heard other people say as well, but I don't even really
- 3:10care if it was like bad defending or whatever it is.
- 3:13I just want to celebrate it because he's just, Yeah, what?
- 3:16You know, the skill, just people going at people.
- 3:20It was just a joy to watch. And I'll be honest, I was kind
- 3:23of flicking in between Southampton and Ipswich as well
- 3:26because that was kind of a big game.
- 3:27And it was a stupid decision because I should have just stuck
- 3:29with the game because every time I flicked there was another
- 3:32goal. He missed it.
- 3:33Two goals. Some moment, some moment I
- 3:35missed. But yeah, wonderful football for
- 3:38me, that. There could have been more goals
- 3:39as well, like when it was one, but then Belly missed an
- 3:43absolute like sitter one-on-one, did all the hard work and then
- 3:47just kind of left the shot about it stopped them.
- 3:51But there was chances it could have been like 8-9 or nine,
- 3:54eight or, you know, I mean, like, it was crazy.
- 3:56Yeah, I think I saw that Newer faced 5 shots and target and
- 4:00conceded 5, but I don't think he, like, it wasn't like he was
- 4:03flapping at them. A lot of them were just quality
- 4:06finishes. Yeah.
- 4:07And even when I saw like them hit the bars of PSG, for
- 4:10example, the quality of Stripe is just unbelievable.
- 4:13And it's just you don't save those like Andy Green style
- 4:17literally is when Den Ballet's goal as well, where he's just
- 4:20completely done in with cutting inside and then just off the
- 4:23post and in, it's just unbelievable.
- 4:28Yeah. It's a bit of a contrast
- 4:31Arsenal, I mean. I didn't.
- 4:32I didn't. I didn't watch this one.
- 4:34Did you watch it? I didn't watch the one last.
- 4:35Night I didn't see it I didn't see it I.
- 4:37Was tired enough already, I knew it took me over the edge.
- 4:39Yeah, to be honest, I think it was always going to be a tough
- 4:42act to follow as much as we like to joke about Arsenal.
- 4:44But yeah, it was very different as we as we thought it would be
- 4:49a game of penalties really and not great penalties again.
- 4:54And Arsenal get given a penalty to kind of win 21 in theory and
- 4:59then it gets overruled by BAR. And again, as much as we like to
- 5:03have a laugh and a joke, it was it was a bit of a joke decision
- 5:06to be AR because does clear and obvious even matter anymore?
- 5:10Because there's no, there's no way they are can say with
- 5:15absolute certainty that that is a clear and obvious error from
- 5:17the referee. I think.
- 5:19I think it's soft, but basically if you haven't seen it, it kind
- 5:22of sticks a flat out and as a makes the most of it in a clever
- 5:25way to be honest. And you can't but.
- 5:27We're contact. Yeah.
- 5:29But yeah, it's just not clear and obvious that there wasn't
- 5:32contact. You look at it and go, it's
- 5:33soft. I'm not really sure but it's not
- 5:36clear and obvious. So I kind of, I fell from a
- 5:39little bit and I'm just, I'm so tired.
- 5:41The one I saw against them, right, was the same as the night
- 5:44before when I was like, that's not penalty came up his leg into
- 5:47his hand. And then it's the same thing the
- 5:50next night. And obviously at least there is
- 5:51consistency. They'd given the pens both
- 5:53nights. But I just feel it's harsh.
- 5:55Like what is an offender meant to do?
- 5:57Like the ball hits their leg, which is allowed to you may not
- 6:00have your hands behind your back the whole time just to stop
- 6:03humble. It was like his hand was like
- 6:05slightly out from his body and it clicked up his off his thigh.
- 6:10And I'm like so harsh. I'm glad we don't have that kind
- 6:16of role in the Premier League. But the whole humble rule, it's
- 6:19just got so complicated. And like you said, oh, it's
- 6:22clear and obvious and it's interpretation.
- 6:24It's like the referees are just scared to make decisions now.
- 6:28I think almost like do you get a bit like tennis, like the
- 6:34manager or the captain, whether you want to do it, you get like
- 6:363 challenges a game or two or one challenge a game.
- 6:40And otherwise the referee's decision is is final, the on
- 6:44pitch decision, like maybe something like that.
- 6:46I don't know. It's just, it's just this story.
- 6:48It's taking a bit of the dry of the game.
- 6:49You can't celebrate a goal properly.
- 6:50You're always worried about something's happened 15 minutes
- 6:52ago and the build up. It's just, yes, it's hard to to
- 6:56to love it as much. Well, luckily it didn't spoil
- 6:59the PSG buying game as well because there was so many goals
- 7:02and moments, but it was a crap penalty and that as well.
- 7:04And it's just we just don't need it.
- 7:06It's just ruining stuff in in games like that where it's just
- 7:09fine margins. Like you can't be making calls
- 7:12like that. I mean, you should just be like,
- 7:15that is handballish and, you know, no questions asked.
- 7:18But when he's like arms are there, come on.
- 7:21Like we just don't need pens for that.
- 7:22It's just this ridiculous. And yeah, the Arsenal one, he's
- 7:26just not clear, obvious. So yeah, some dodgy decisions as
- 7:29well, but let's. Focus.
- 7:30What do you reckon? Who's going through and let's go
- 7:34and. Yeah, I would say I've still got
- 7:39my bet on Aflac, on Madrid to win it, which obviously looks
- 7:43frightening with PSG and buying in the farm they're in.
- 7:45But I just, I don't know the result last night is definitely
- 7:48better for Arsenal, right? But I can still see with Arsenal
- 7:51focused on the league, Athletico, Madrid go in there
- 7:54and and doing a job. So I do still fancy Athletico to
- 7:57get through that. What about you?
- 8:00Yeah, I think there's I saw again just the reading, the
- 8:04reading the game and listen to the Alvarez kind of game very
- 8:08close. So I think maybe next game, if
- 8:11it's similar, maybe they have a striker who can the side games
- 8:17and I don't think Arsenal do yeah, so I think maybe that he
- 8:19could be the difference which which tips in their favour.
- 8:22I got obviously Arsenal at home and they had to be.
- 8:24It's just two teams, two teams that are hard to beat.
- 8:27But that's why I think maybe I've had to go can still edge it
- 8:29because they've got kind of the world beta.
- 8:32You can can turn a game in Alvarez.
- 8:35So maybe that's the the side and then on the other side, I think
- 8:40PSG, I think they are better. I think I think I'd rather PSG
- 8:47play if it was asked on to go through.
- 8:48I think I'd rather PSG play them because they've been there and
- 8:53done it more recently and it has a manager who's been there and
- 8:58done it as well twice. I just think I'd just be worried
- 9:01if Arsenal do make it that they kind of stodge Champions League
- 9:06when it be absolutely horrific if they if they be either of
- 9:09them. Because obviously when you look
- 9:11at the two games that we saw them this week, like they're
- 9:13just so much more entertaining and, and, and what you want to
- 9:16see from A football match for much of all teams.
- 9:19I actually fancy Bayern Munich and the other one, mainly
- 9:22because I think, yeah, PSG are incredible and frightening, but
- 9:25I do think they letting that 5-2 lead slip is costly and buy in
- 9:31as well. I've got some incredible
- 9:32firepower and then to take it back to their place as well.
- 9:37I do feel that buy in might sneak through that one, but
- 9:40yeah, it'd be interesting. And just back on mentioning
- 9:42before Alvarez what a player is, by the way, how have City let
- 9:45him go? Yeah.
- 9:48Yeah, looks baffling now. I guess what he did, he want us.
- 9:51He kind of knew he'd be second piddle to Allen, but so maybe
- 9:57that's the only reason why that he wanted to go because he
- 10:00didn't want to play it because he's obviously a world class
- 10:02striker. So he's like, well, he's not as
- 10:04he's gonna be favored over Highland still because Howland
- 10:06is a better striker. So that's probably why he wants
- 10:09to be #1 and he deserves to be kind of the number one player
- 10:12for a team. I've heard Basa wants him, but
- 10:15Baskin can apparently can't spend 26,000,000 on Rashford but
- 10:18can probably spend 120 million on Alvarez.
- 10:22I'm sure they'll find a way, put some leaders, but.
- 10:25Yeah, now you've mentioned it, if we let Marcus Rashford go for
- 10:28any less than 30 million, it is a disgrace.
- 10:32Yeah, Joke, joke. Yeah, I'm sick of getting
- 10:36fleeced for our players, so staying strong, United, stay
- 10:40strong and actually get something even 30 million, you
- 10:42know, it was 100 million player pound player before, so
- 10:4530,000,000 are bargain. So yeah.
- 10:48Yeah, it's a steal still. None of this nonsense, please.
- 10:50All right, so yeah, interesting, but let's get into it.
- 10:54Sunday 3rd of May 330 take off in the UK.
- 11:00Man United versus Liverpool or Trafford, the fixture we kind of
- 11:03look forward to on Sky Sports in the UK.
- 11:06I'm actually going to be down South for this one, which I'm
- 11:09gusseted about. And Jazz.
- 11:10I don't know why you've met them, but my inlaws are fake
- 11:14scouses as well so I'm going to end up probably having to watch
- 11:16it with them. Yeah, I mean, where's a couple
- 11:21of seasons ago? But as you'll see from my
- 11:24prediction, weren't we so bad at anything for you?
- 11:28OK, I like it. I like it.
- 11:30Yeah. I'd say in years gone by this
- 11:33has been bigger for obvious reasons, but still a big one,
- 11:37right? You know, we're both going for
- 11:38Champions League and you know, we only need kind of two more
- 11:40points, but we want to finish above them, don't we?
- 11:44Yeah, 100%. And I think that third spot
- 11:47would just be, yeah, kind of showcase what Carrick's done.
- 11:52And then it just, yeah, like you said, nice beat, finish above
- 11:54the Sky season. Like if obviously they win this
- 11:55and it gets tight and then they can finish above us and we end
- 11:57up finishing 4th or 5th. And it's you don't want to end
- 12:00the season on a on a downward trajectory.
- 12:04So yeah, I think it's a really big game.
- 12:05Obviously it's always a big game because it's a Derby and we hate
- 12:08them, but I think, yeah, I think it still has kind of
- 12:14consequences in terms of the actual table and results and and
- 12:17morale and for Carrick if he doesn't win it.
- 12:20So yeah, I think it's important. Just think our sweet year could
- 12:24be as well in terms of we beat them all, Trafford, we do the
- 12:27double on them and we secure Champions League.
- 12:31That would be nice. Yeah, exactly.
- 12:33And also probably secure 3rd as well.
- 12:36Yeah, because that'd be 66 points ahead of Liverpool when I
- 12:41think Villa probably will be a bit indifferent anyway, coming
- 12:44up with the European league semis and probably final.
- 12:46So yeah, I think it almost took yours 3rd as well, yeah.
- 12:51Agreed. Well, we're getting to United,
- 12:53but let's have a look at the The Dirty Scousers just quickly
- 12:55before before we do, I mentioned that there's a potential to do
- 12:59the double because we got that two wrong win at Anfield last
- 13:03time we played them don't even remember it, but it was in
- 13:05Buenos scoring in the first minute with that Van Dyke
- 13:09mistake. I hope he's got another one in
- 13:10his locker. You know where he failed to kind
- 13:12of pushed him in the back, fouled him brain gets straight
- 13:14back up and then just left him and blamed everyone else like he
- 13:18always does. He's.
- 13:20Never made a mistake so surprising.
- 13:24And then? To be fair, Liverpool, I don't
- 13:27like to be fair to Liverpool, but I will say they hit the
- 13:29woodwork a fair few times and then Jack Ball got that
- 13:31equalizer but then big slob Head with a winner at Anfield, what a
- 13:36feeling that must have been for him.
- 13:39Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was the first time in a while
- 13:42as well that I think we'd be in a minute there in the league.
- 13:45So yeah, more. I can't remember the last time
- 13:49we did the double over them. I think it's quite a while ago
- 13:51so. Good question.
- 13:54Yeah, well, I'm here for it. That'd be, that would be sweet
- 13:58because yeah, obviously we're in 3rd, they're in fourth, three
- 14:00points in it. So as you said, a win and six
- 14:03points difference would be massive.
- 14:06Annoyingly, you know, they've not been too great this season,
- 14:09but they have kind of ticked up more recently.
- 14:12So last time out they had a three one win at home to Palace.
- 14:16Before that they had that jammy 21 last minute winner again.
- 14:20100th minute. Yeah, against not deserved.
- 14:24What happened in between all the Premier game, Premier League
- 14:28game before that they got beat 2 now at home to PSG, but before
- 14:31that they they beat Fulham Juno at home.
- 14:33So last three results have been wins for them.
- 14:36But let's hope we can kind of end that runner for me.
- 14:40Yeah, like you said, I don't think they've actually been very
- 14:42good in those games. The Palace one, again, it was
- 14:45that third goal was late and that was when Pirates were
- 14:48pushing on. And I mean, Palace had some
- 14:50chances maybe. I think there's even a penalty
- 14:53shot in it. So yeah, I think they're the
- 14:57three one flattered them actually easily could have been
- 14:59a draw. Now you said the Everton game
- 15:01was a really late, late winner as well.
- 15:05So yeah, I think the results are three wins probably hide their
- 15:09actual real form, as in the way they're actually playing.
- 15:15But yeah, obviously on paper they look like they're playing
- 15:17well. Yeah, we'll see.
- 15:19We'll see team news for them. So some interesting ones.
- 15:21Obviously Ecker TK is a big one. You know, he's out with that,
- 15:24you know, serious injury and he'll miss the World Cup as
- 15:26well. Salah is unlikely, I think with
- 15:31a with a muscle injury. I think they're talking about
- 15:34him being back before the end of the season.
- 15:35But I'd be very surprised if he makes the trip to.
- 15:37Yeah, I don't think he'll he'll be playing, which is great
- 15:40because he does love playing and scoring against us.
- 15:42So yeah, that's a massive miss for them.
- 15:45I think even also knowing it was going to be his last Derby, I
- 15:49think he would have been like really up for it.
- 15:51So I'm very glad. Yeah, he's out.
- 15:54No, no chance to just kind of patch him up on Wheeling him
- 15:57out. With that in mind, I.
- 15:59Don't think so because I think it probably the risk is then in
- 16:03any way. But he does.
- 16:03He tears it all over. It is, but he probably won't
- 16:06show his last game at Anfield. Yeah, true.
- 16:08So maybe I don't think they'd risk it, but yeah, you never
- 16:13know. It could be one of those sneaky
- 16:14ones. But yeah, it sounds like he
- 16:15won't be out. He won't be playing.
- 16:17Yeah, And then about goalkeeper issues as well as to Alison and
- 16:20Muhammad Ash. Billy has also have been out
- 16:22recently and wouldn't have been playing, but classically with
- 16:25those, Alison is close to a return.
- 16:27So I don't know if he'll he'll make it for us, but fingers
- 16:31crossed he doesn't because he's a good player, right?
- 16:33Yeah, he's a good player. He's a good keeper, yeah.
- 16:37And there's a little ones, Bradley Leone and Endo are also
- 16:40out. So a few injuries there.
- 16:42But still, you know, when you look at that that squad, it's
- 16:46still a decent, decent team, right, That we'll we'll be
- 16:48facing and from your if you're going to pick a one to watch on
- 16:52their side. Well, obviously Esac scored
- 16:56against Palace so he's in my fantasy team there.
- 16:59So hopefully that caused a dry game against us.
- 17:04But I guess he's obviously he's got that goal, a recent goal,
- 17:07which maybe means obviously he's a quality player and he was he
- 17:09was classed last season in Newcastle.
- 17:11So to get to that kind of form again, then he could be
- 17:15obviously he's definitely one to watch and then I don't have
- 17:20still don't really wait. That's pretty like he's a good
- 17:24player, but not when you cost 125 million.
- 17:26You should be better than that. I don't care.
- 17:29It's like first season and nice guy stuff, like look at some of
- 17:32the players who come to the Premier League for the first
- 17:33season who costs half the price. So he's going to score now,
- 17:39isn't? It yeah so but yeah, I'm.
- 17:42Probably going to say Asak is the one to watch.
- 17:45I think is gag PO. He seems to like play against us
- 17:48as well. He's always pretty tricky so
- 17:52probably the main ones I'll be looking at it for.
- 17:55Yeah, I've gone with GAC Paul genuinely for that reason.
- 17:58I just think he's a bit of a pain in the ass against us.
- 18:00So hopefully not this time, but he's kind of my one to watch.
- 18:05But let's get positive, let's get excited, let's get into
- 18:08United. So in terms of our team, I don't
- 18:12want to set you off again, Charles, but Martinez is still
- 18:14banned for one, one final game for that horrendous hair pull
- 18:19that only happens to my. I can't watch it again.
- 18:21It just, it makes me feel sick every time I see it.
- 18:23So, so violent. It's ridiculous but yeah, we're
- 18:28without him unfortunately. Obviously Euro came on for sure
- 18:33against Brentford, so probably means, you know, Euro's back
- 18:37into in contention. I'm not sure about sure, I think
- 18:40it'd be fine, but potentially a question mark on him and then
- 18:44gutted as always, but Kunia probably still a doubt.
- 18:47You know, it's nothing too serious, but if he is to miss
- 18:50out, he's such a it's such a shame because he's that those
- 18:54kind of games are absolutely perfect for him.
- 18:56Right. Yeah.
- 18:56He'll love this game, like he'll be going house remote, yeah, or
- 19:00like he winded people up getting the crowd round up.
- 19:04So yeah, hopefully he's a bit, but obviously we're doing this
- 19:07before the press conference. So yeah, I guess we'll find out
- 19:10on Friday who's fit or not. But yeah, it doesn't sound like
- 19:15he'll be available. Or with that in mind, then just
- 19:18go into it what you thinking. Put your carrot hat on Who's
- 19:21starting? It's so it's basically the same,
- 19:27exactly the same team from from Brentford.
- 19:31So obviously Lemons, Gallo, McGuire, Heaven and I think even
- 19:36if Euro is that, I'm probably going heaven anyways.
- 19:39I think for a Derby like this, I think he's one that bit more
- 19:42aggression that he has. So I go ahead and especially
- 19:45with McGuire next to him, giving him pointers and then Shaw left
- 19:49back. And then obviously if Shaw is
- 19:50injured, then maybe I don't. I wouldn't want to switch to
- 19:53that kind of background like that.
- 19:55I'd go for kind of imaginary, probably a left back, yeah.
- 19:58And then the midfield obviously picks itself and then, yeah, if
- 20:02Cunha is out, then you'd have to go.
- 20:05And Bermo Cesco who Ahmad touched that so I'm assuming
- 20:10yours isn't saying. Spawn yeah, I think it's going
- 20:13to be exactly, exactly that. And I think it's a massive game
- 20:17for the midfield. You know, they had a really good
- 20:18game against Brentford, Casimiro and Mainu, but this is a game
- 20:22that needs to be won there. So really one of big things for
- 20:25them. But yeah, I think Kevin and
- 20:26McGuire will be given the nod again.
- 20:28And then if Shaw spit, I think he's.
- 20:30I think he's in. And then, yeah, as you said, the
- 20:33only question mark really is Kenya.
- 20:34If he's available, I'm picking him.
- 20:36But it might just be a little bit a little bit too soon.
- 20:41All right, score. I'm gonna let you go first this
- 20:43time because I went first last time and got really close.
- 20:46But I'm worried. I don't know why.
- 20:47I've got a feeling you're gonna you're gonna make mind.
- 20:49What? Go on.
- 20:51I'm going confident. I don't know.
- 20:53I just don't think they're just don't think they're very good.
- 20:56So I'm going 31, no, United, United, I'm not predicting their
- 21:02goal scorer. I'll say oh, actually no, I
- 21:05think it probably Gapo, but he's not going on my bet.
- 21:08And then goals from us will be Cesco Bruno and I think Ahmad's
- 21:14finally going to convert a chance, so I'm going.
- 21:17He's also scored before against the 4/4.
- 21:19He likes it. So I'm going for the front 3 all
- 21:22to get a goal each AH. Jazz jazz.
- 21:25We too see one as well and I try and hide my notes from it and I
- 21:28promise we haven't discussed this.
- 21:30But again, this is probably going to come back to buyers on
- 21:33the ass. But I also feel good.
- 21:34I think we need all Trafford rocking, but I think that there
- 21:38for the taking and I have also gone 31 United.
- 21:42I've gone a bit rogue here. I've gone Cesco, which is
- 21:45definitely not rogue. I just feel that this is the
- 21:48game where I'm at, as you say, but also Brian back.
- 21:52So I've gone, I'm at Brian and Cesco for our three and I've
- 21:57mentioned that he's at goal for Liverpool, but look at his ball.
- 22:01Yeah, confident. Yeah, Yeah, it's nice.
- 22:05It's nice going into it. Like basically for last whatever
- 22:08is pretty much like at least five seasons, six seasons, we've
- 22:12gone in bearing a loss and most of the time it has been a loss.
- 22:16And so there's been an embarrassing loss.
- 22:17So even if we, even if the result doesn't come, at least
- 22:19we're going to these games feeling a lot more confident
- 22:21than we have done for many years.
- 22:23Yeah. Yeah, exactly.
- 22:24And we've been playing well against good teams, right?
- 22:27And I think all track exactly, we need you.
- 22:30We need to get it rocking. We need to get big behind the
- 22:33players. And I just think that, yeah, if
- 22:35we can get at Liverpool, they are really there for the taking.
- 22:38Like you mentioned before, some narrow wins from them recently.
- 22:43They've got some good players, but they've also got injuries.
- 22:45So let's just put onto the sod and get a massive win, massive
- 22:49win for United, massive win for carry.
- 22:50Then let's get that Champions League secured, all right?
- 22:54I'm excited but yeah, let's have a little look at the rest of the
- 22:59game week as well. So not loads of fixtures for me
- 23:02that stand out. Naturally we're up.
- 23:04We're keeping an eye on Arsalan City, so Arsenal homes of
- 23:07Fulham, any slip up there? Just I.
- 23:11Think they'll win it. I think it'll be like another
- 23:14like one nil Basically, yeah. Follow me Like who they they
- 23:18beat? The other week, Villa.
- 23:21Yeah, beat better of the week. So obviously they've got they
- 23:23can beat a decent team. Yeah, I just think Arsenal will
- 23:26grind out, especially at home. The only thing it may be CL11,
- 23:32but I think it'll be low scoring.
- 23:33Like don't score lots of goals. But yeah, I'm probably going to
- 23:37go for like an Arsenal one nil there.
- 23:39That play and then City away at Everton.
- 23:43They hate Everton, they hate playing Everton.
- 23:44Yeah, like our mate who's a City fan, he's always like, hates,
- 23:48hates the Everton games, hates the Everton fans.
- 23:51And yeah, it's it's a definitely a kind of banana skin.
- 23:55It's a hard place to go. But I still think City will will
- 23:58get it done. I think they're kind of in
- 24:00machine mode. I think they probably will win
- 24:02the rest of the games, but I think it could be a tight one as
- 24:06well, maybe like a 2-1, something like that.
- 24:08Not not an easy game. I'm with you.
- 24:10I think that's a bit of a banana skin.
- 24:12I could see a draw or something there.
- 24:15But yeah, we shall see. And then just about the top four
- 24:19rivals watch. The only one that really sticks
- 24:22out, you know, we're playing Liverpool, which the big one is
- 24:24Villa at home to Spurs. Guess both ends of the table.
- 24:28Yeah. What do you think?
- 24:31I don't know, it's high. Obviously don't know what Spurs
- 24:33are going to turn out like. Obviously deserves getting more
- 24:35time with them. They obviously picked up four
- 24:37points now in three games or whatever it is, which is much
- 24:42better than they've been doing. So I don't know, could he?
- 24:47Obviously Bill are playing the Forest tonight I think so maybe
- 24:54see how that game goes. It might affect this game if
- 24:59they smash them or it's really tight and they might rest
- 25:01players and then Spurs can pick up a pick up a win.
- 25:04So I think Villa might drop points there, maybe a draw.
- 25:10I'll give spurs that I'll be happy if they if that happens
- 25:13just to kind of give us a bit more breathing room in that in
- 25:16that top four. Yeah, as much as we're enjoying
- 25:18there, they had demise. We'll let them have a point.
- 25:22Yeah, a point there. OK great.
- 25:25That's kind of the thought you wrapped up.
- 25:26But as always in previews, challenge Chaz time ready.
- 25:31Yeah, just just my caveat as I'm still ill so maybe my head and I
- 25:34won't be working properly. To be fair, I can't judge you at
- 25:37all after my performance on the on the last one.
- 25:40Yeah. But yeah, obviously we won't
- 25:42move a United Liverpool theme for obvious reasons.
- 25:45Yeah, my question did my question to you today, Charles
- 25:49in challenge. Charles is who is the only
- 25:51Manchester United player to have scored a hat trick against
- 25:54Liverpool in the history of the Premier League.
- 25:57And just for your answer, yeah, straight in.
- 26:01I think this is because I'm getting a little bit excited now
- 26:03trying to manifest a hat trick into into this game for us.
- 26:09But yeah, Dimmatah Berbatas, correct.
- 26:12Do you remember it do. You remember?
- 26:15Yes. It was a really, really Class 1
- 26:17as well. I think it was it.
- 26:19They score. We won a bicycle kick.
- 26:21Yeah. Or break the bar.
- 26:22Yeah. Yeah.
- 26:23Unbelievable. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I remember.
- 26:26Yeah. I might have to have a little.
- 26:27What was their final score on that one?
- 26:2932. The three, two, yeah, yeah,
- 26:32yeah. I might have to have a little
- 26:34little watch of that just to kind of get myself in the mood.
- 26:38There's another, as always, as kind of a Part 2.
- 26:42How many hat tricks did Berbatov get for United?
- 26:49He had 108 appearances, if that helps you.
- 26:52That's all. I don't think it's loads, I feel
- 26:57like maybe you got one against black band or something as well.
- 27:00Very good. And we got 3.
- 27:05Closely got 4, which you said not that many, but that's pretty
- 27:08impressive because what makes it more impressive is he got three
- 27:12in the same season 2000 and ten 2011.
- 27:15Who against? It was Liverpool Blackburn I
- 27:20was. Right with Blackburn.
- 27:21Yeah, you were and then it was good knowledge.
- 27:23You're testing it, but I can't remember.
- 27:24But that's that's our and to be fair, 56 goals he got in 108
- 27:28appearances. What a player.
- 27:30I think we both loved him, didn't we?
- 27:32Yeah, I loved it. Loved the Babs, right?
- 27:36Like he would. He the reason he didn't shine as
- 27:39much was because of the players around him as well.
- 27:41He wasn't like the focal point. Yeah, like, like I said, his
- 27:43goal record was pretty good. And I think he's real.
- 27:45Like, the only thing was he didn't start him in.
- 27:47He didn't get in the squad for the 2009 Champions League final,
- 27:51I felt. Was it to know?
- 27:53Was it 20? Which one?
- 27:54It was 2013, No, we didn't get to any final the other night
- 27:59anyway. We won the ones we lost to that
- 28:00batter team. He didn't get to start.
- 28:02I didn't get in the squad. I felt like a bit gutted for
- 28:04him. I think he deserved it that
- 28:06season. I'm pretty sure he's top goal
- 28:08scorer as well. Have you ever seen anyone with
- 28:11the better first touch? I only want to watch videos of
- 28:16myself. Good Lord.
- 28:21Yes, I have actually only one person.
- 28:24I'd probably say Ronaldinho. Yeah, his touch is ridiculous.
- 28:29But yeah, in the Premier League and I think so just like use
- 28:31this glue. Wasn't it just picking balls out
- 28:33the sky? Yeah, unbelievable player.
- 28:35But yeah, easy one for you there.
- 28:37Just nailed it, Nailed it. And I'm pretty good on
- 28:39remembering that. The hat tricks as well, but what
- 28:41a player. Does that mean I have to give
- 28:43you an easy one for next week's preview?
- 28:45Yes please that would be nice try try and redeem myself as a
- 28:48man. What is Manchester United's
- 28:50nickname? Save it and I'll do some
- 28:54research before next week. Yeah, yeah.
- 28:57But yeah, let's leave it there, Jazz.
- 28:59Let's get excited. Massive on a Sunday.
- 29:02Let's beat those bloody scouses at home.
- 29:06Do the double, get Champions League, stick one on them?
- 29:10Yes, please. What do you think?
