  Speaker 2: Well, I'll ask you plenty of questions here, Johnny.
• 1:16
  Speaker 5: No, I could never escape.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: Johnny define experimentation.
• 1:22
  Speaker 5: Oh no, oh god, that's a throwback.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: The word.
• 1:26
  Speaker 5: It's a word is when you tried experiment with something,
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: of experimenting and something. It's an experimentation.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, with with with work.
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: You know, I was at a meeting last week and
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: someone said that, and like, you know, not that I
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: had to hold him laughter or anything, but that's that's
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: where my mind went right away, instant.
• 1:47
  Speaker 7: Yeah, it's like PTSD big time exactly.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Uh, guys, we had you know, Pseudo Derby Dell Couch
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: you guys today in the super Coporate Taliana in what
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: was it, Saudi Arabia, the most talent thing ever, Like,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: I mean, I know they've been doing this for a
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: few years now, but it's, uh, it's frustrating nonetheless to
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: see this, you know, the same story play out every year.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Or obviously they're chasing the money, right guys in in
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia. Whatever, It's fine, but it like it's kind
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: of the point where they add these extra games. You
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: play the semi finals and you have to play the finals.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: It's like a certain point, why can't they just incorporate these.
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: Games as part of like the city schedule.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's say, Napoli Roma they play today part of
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: the super Kopa, but this game also couns for City
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: at the concert for three points. Maybe it's a bit
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: too complicated logistically to figure things out, but uh yeah,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: it's it's it, you.
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: Know, more games, more games. We talk about it all
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: the time.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: It's like, what next time they revived the revise the format.
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: It's gonna be eight teams in the Super Copa and
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: it's gonna do a quarterfinals and then there's gonna be
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: around to sixteen. Then it's just then just gonna be
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: another Copa Itttalia. Maybe I'm maybe I'm I'm going a
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: bit too much there, But I don't know what your
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: guys thoughts about having to see your team's travel in
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: the middle of the season and play two extra games.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll kick it off and then I'll send it
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: to Johnny.
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: But I find it's puts a bit of a I
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: don't want to say a damper on things, but it
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: just it's it's a bit of a it's annoying, if
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: I'm honest, Like the travel.
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: Uh you know, it's not like you're going around the
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: corner and you know you're.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: Going uh you know, to another, to another part of
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: the world and west, and I know there's there's money
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: to be made, and there's you know for for Setia standards.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: You know that eleven million extra uh for the winner.
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: I mean it does mean something, I guess, but not
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: not a huge fan of it, to be honest with you.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: I know, you know Sadiyah, even though they're still in
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: the Stone Age, tries to broad in the horizons and
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: and you know, touch other markets. It's it's the super
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: super cope Italiana. And like Nick said, we're playing in
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: Saudi Arabia, so.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: You know it is where it is.
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: I'm not a big fan, especially in a season where listen,
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: these teams that are that are going out there are
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: are competing for you know, top four, Scudetto and and
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: all those types of implications. And you know, you put
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: a halt in the middle of your season and you know, yes,
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: there's a bit of a break now because you know
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: Melon's out and you know, the only play I think
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: in ten days time, So you know, I guess that's
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: that's the one bonus. But you know it's it's unnecessary travel.
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: In my opinion, this is gonna bleed into for me,
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: even for this the Australia match, for the Milan Como
• 4:37
  Speaker 4: match that apparently is gonna you know, they're they're saying
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: it's all systems go for that, so which again I'm
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: not a fan of. I know, we want to, like
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: I said, brought in our broad in our horizons, uh
• 4:49
  Speaker 4: you know, in Sadia. But I think there's other ways
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: to do it, to touch these other markets and you know,
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: playing games there that count for something I think is
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: I don't know if it's the answer.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: And in my personal opinion, maybe I'm maybe I'm wrong,
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: and maybe I'm.
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: Not seeing something, but for me, it's, uh, if there's
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: one thing we want to keep in Italy, I think
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: there are the are the matches you want to you
• 5:10
  Speaker 4: want to have fan experience and and and other and
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: other certain things.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: Like that taking up a place abroad.
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: You know, absolutely we've been to countless you know of
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: those those ic C, those you know, international friendly matches
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: in the summertime. We've been to plenty of them and
• 5:26
  Speaker 4: had a great, a great experience. You know, if you
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: want to make it like that, sure, but super Copa
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: Setia matches, you know, who knows, maybe the Coptalia one day,
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: like where does it end?
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: So for me, I'm not a big fan. Uh, that doesn't.
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: Put uh, you know away the fact that you're obviously
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: gonna watch your team play.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: That's that's a that's again nut's a no brainer.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: But I don't know, Johnny, I think you guys were
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: maybe better rested than us. It seemed like we were
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: really crippled today. But what did you think of maybe
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: the unnecessary travel?
• 5:55
  Speaker 7: Uh?
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: Your thoughts on that? Well?
• 5:57
  Speaker 7: I think that if you're gonna do a top four
• 5:59
  Speaker 7: thing for the super Kopa, you should make it something
• 6:02
  Speaker 7: like like the winner of Setia, the winner of Uh
• 6:06
  Speaker 7: you can put probably the runner up or last year's
• 6:09
  Speaker 7: Super Coca winner, and then you should probably put the
• 6:12
  Speaker 7: winner of Setia B.
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: I think that's something that could we do if you
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: want to do.
• 6:16
  Speaker 7: A top four thing, if you want to do super Copa,
• 6:18
  Speaker 7: to reward the team for winning SETI A B, give
• 6:20
  Speaker 7: them some kind of uh, you know, motivation to really
• 6:24
  Speaker 7: try hard and push for this trophy and give them
• 6:26
  Speaker 7: a little bit of a confidence boost before you know,
• 6:29
  Speaker 7: playing in Setia or like while you're in Ceitia, you know,
• 6:31
  Speaker 7: like you know, some kind of like while you're while
• 6:34
  Speaker 7: you're here, here's the trophy that you guys can try
• 6:36
  Speaker 7: try out for.
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 6:37
  Speaker 7: It is for the money, though, And I honestly like
• 6:41
  Speaker 7: for a league that's like desperate for money to make
• 6:43
  Speaker 7: as much money as we can, I don't like it.
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: I really don't like it.
• 6:48
  Speaker 7: But I can't fault them, you know what I mean, Like,
• 6:52
  Speaker 7: especially cross strapped for cash we are, I can't fault them.
• 6:55
  Speaker 7: So it's it's I don't like it, but you know,
• 6:58
  Speaker 7: like if our leagues are getting these the Saudi money
• 7:01
  Speaker 7: to help you know, finance their their goals, why can't we?
• 7:07
  Speaker 7: But the one, the one saving gracefulness is that it's
• 7:10
  Speaker 7: not being influxed like as if they bought a team
• 7:13
  Speaker 7: and then they're just trying to make like a super team,
• 7:14
  Speaker 7: you know what I mean. Yeah, it's just a it's
• 7:17
  Speaker 7: just a trophy that.
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: I said.
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: He has playing over you know.
• 7:24
  Speaker 7: Over a border to a different country and you know
• 7:28
  Speaker 7: they are soccer fans there, so they get an opportunity
• 7:30
  Speaker 7: to see teams don't normally see, so and Sid yeah,
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: gets a bit of money for it. I don't see
• 7:36
  Speaker 7: what's the harm.
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: In that, you know what I'm saying.
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: So yeah, for for for like I was seeing the
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: reports I had seen it was about like eleven million
• 7:43
  Speaker 4: for the winner, eleven million euros for the winner. And listen,
• 7:46
  Speaker 4: it's not it's obviously not a huge stack of money.
• 7:49
  Speaker 4: It's not chump change either, but you know, for you know,
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: two games a two games span to to potentially earn
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: that money for for your club and and who knows
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: if that if Johnny's idea of maybe including a set
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: of B team uh to that super copa you know,
• 8:05
  Speaker 4: competition and trophy.
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: You know that eleven million can go a long way.
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: So listen, I don't know, but I think with the uh, with.
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: How the Saudi League has has continued to evolve, and
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: you know, you're bringing in you know, the stars and
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: you know, the Ronaldo's of the world and and stuff
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: like that. You know, obviously there's a bit more buzz
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: and there's a bit more you know, fandom, not that
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: there wasn't before. I think now it's just more elevated.
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: But again, uh, like I'm gonna stick to my guns
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: and say, you know, there's one thing to to keep
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: in the.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: Country of Italy.
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: I think is is is the competitions that means something, right,
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: I know, people like to brush aside the super Copa
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: and and some of these you know more quote unquote
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: meaningless trophies, but at the end of the day, it
• 8:48
  Speaker 4: counts for something, and I personally would would keep that
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: within uh, within the Italian peninsula.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Uh so yeah, Uh today mead line against uh Napoli
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: in the Super Coopa do nothing win for NAPOLEI goes
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: from Nears and oil and so they go to the final. Napoli,
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: as you know, obviously as the City at Champs, there's
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: a release, so uh play the winner of Bologna inter
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: So maybe deep down we're hoping for Bologna win, so
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: we could see the City Champs versus the Copatalia Champs
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: in the final, which is I believe on Monday, the final.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys had a chance to
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: watch the game, uh, you know, being that we got
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: a nappily fan here, we got a mealon fan.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: If you guys could give your opinions.
• 9:34
  Speaker 4: I caught the probably more the end of the game. Again,
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: like we always say, uh, you know, us across the
• 9:40
  Speaker 4: pond this side that we worked during the week, so
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: it's not always easy to to to tune into every match,
• 9:46
  Speaker 4: but I caught a bit.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: I saw kind of what was going on.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: For the mealine perspective, there really wasn't much to really
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: hold on to. Unfortunately, Uh, you know, the two nail results,
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: I think, you know, I guess, you know, kudos to
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: kudos to nap even though I know they were the
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: better team on the pitch, but I think personally.
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: It was more.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: You know, Melan not doing enough and allowing Napoli to
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: to play.
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: Their game and ultimately capitalize.
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: Like I don't think Napi was so much more superior
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: than Melon in the match.
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: I know, obviously the result.
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: Says, you know, to nil and you see that and
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: you're like, oh, well, I guess you know not we
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: just you know, dog walk neon. But I think it,
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: you know, with a crippled team that Mewan has currently,
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: especially in the forward position, it was almost expected. Like
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: I was hearing a lot of meal On East say,
• 10:43
  Speaker 4: and I guess myself included, you know that the expectation
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: wasn't you know, the highest.
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: We don't have a we don't have an out and
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: out striker on the pitch.
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: Uh, you know, you need to score goals to win games,
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: and unfortunately, you know, we weren't able to put any
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: past and listen, I think the goals that were scored
• 11:03
  Speaker 4: by Monopoly, the first one is was honestly terrible. If
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: you ask me, I know, manya, you know, I would
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: say nine times out of ten or you know, nine
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: and a half times out of ten saves Milan.
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: It makes those time we saves and really, you know,
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: keeps us in games.
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: Obviously a bit of a bit of a mistake there
• 11:25
  Speaker 4: to try to to try to parry it.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: Out, to kind of perry it towards there Rez.
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: But I think the bigger blame for me personally, if
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: I had to put a blame is Corny the Winter.
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: I mean, he had a terrible game from top to bottom.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: It shows that he's he's not in my opinion of
• 11:43
  Speaker 4: Melon caliber. It's it's a shame because I thought he
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: would have brought in something having that city experience and
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: kind of knowing the league and knowing how how the
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: game gameplay flows and and stuff like that. But when
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: he gets limited minutes and he gets kind of just
• 11:57
  Speaker 4: tossed into the into the fire.
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: It's when you play for Milan, you know that.
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: You have to you have to take that and and
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: run with it, and he's he's done nothing of the sort.
• 12:07
  Speaker 4: So I think on the first goal, you know, you'll
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: aw to cross that in, you know, across the face
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: of goal, and and there is is he's been a
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: man on form, right, and you know he's been he's
• 12:18
  Speaker 4: been doing well. So it's it's obvious that he's gonna
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: he's gonna be able to tap that in. And again
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: was having his way with the Winter on the second
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: one too, and and you know, fire a shot and
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: you know, cross uh across Manya's face and I was
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: able to score again. So but again I'm still gonna
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: stick to you know, yes, not he was the better team,
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: but I don't think they were super superior and really
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: dominating in terms of like shots and all that. I think,
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: you know, Melan obviously struggled defensively, and when you don't
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: have much forwards to choose from and you're stuck with uh,
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: you know, basically wingers or attacking mid fielders to kind
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: of lead your lead your frontline, it's it's, uh, it's
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: hard to score goals and you know that focal point
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: that we.
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: Don't have up top.
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: And not to make excuses because I know Poostage has
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: been on form, but we're we're hoping and praying to
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: that Poolstage is gonna pull another monkey out of his
• 13:17
  Speaker 4: rabit out of his hat, sorry, and and and do something,
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: do some magic and unfortunate today wasn't the day again.
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: Kuros Tonopoly for for advancing and yeah, I think I
• 13:29
  Speaker 4: don't know, like it's it was one of these games
• 13:32
  Speaker 4: where I don't know if it was the travel, I
• 13:33
  Speaker 4: don't know if it was the competition, but listen all,
• 13:40
  Speaker 4: I don't know if he's kind of made it clear
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: by bouncing out every every competition and only sticking to SETI.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: I don't know if that was his game plan or
• 13:47
  Speaker 4: just the squad that we have is not able to
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: compete on on uh you know, multiple competitions. But uh,
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: you know, I hope, I hope to God that this
• 13:56
  Speaker 4: plan works and we focus on Setia and we do
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: some damage there. But it's a shame because you know,
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: last last year, I know it was a bad year
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: for Melon, but you know, maybe the one quote unquote
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: saving Grace was not saving Grace but kind of uh,
• 14:12
  Speaker 4: you know, the small positive of last season was obviously
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: the Super Colpor Trophy that that they won last season,
• 14:17
  Speaker 4: so it was a shame not to touch some sort
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: of silverware again this year. Hopefully it'll be uh in
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: May with the Scudetto, but uh yeah, it's it's a shame.
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: And like I said Kudrosnopolin.
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: I think that's a very fair assessment.
• 14:31
  Speaker 7: That wouldn't like like I had to work today too,
• 14:33
  Speaker 7: so uh fortune I got home too late for the game.
• 14:39
  Speaker 7: But you know, looking at highlights, looking at stats, looking
• 14:42
  Speaker 7: at you know, some analysis and whatnot, I think it's
• 14:46
  Speaker 7: pretty fair to say that it wasn't as if Napoli
• 14:48
  Speaker 7: was a dominant site for this game. They just think
• 14:51
  Speaker 7: they were, but like it wasn't like like dominating in
• 14:54
  Speaker 7: the fact where it's like they were suffocating melon and
• 14:56
  Speaker 7: like they were like not a lot to do anything.
• 14:58
  Speaker 7: It was like a back and forth game of nothingness
• 15:01
  Speaker 7: that I found, and then you scored those two goals,
• 15:04
  Speaker 7: and once that first one went in and then the
• 15:07
  Speaker 7: the second one happened as well, it was like it
• 15:11
  Speaker 7: just sucked out any life that mean, when potentially had
• 15:14
  Speaker 7: out of them, and it was pretty much game over
• 15:16
  Speaker 7: after that second one.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: So that's how I kind of saw it. But I
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: don't know.
• 15:20
  Speaker 7: I also I also think it's like, you know, Milan
• 15:23
  Speaker 7: didn't really have quality chances either, you know, like.
• 15:27
  Speaker 3: Except for the one I think there was one, the
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: loftish cheek. There was a loftish cheek.
• 15:31
  Speaker 4: I kind of I kind of tuned in as that
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: was as that chance had happened.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: I had seen it kind of on the replay.
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: It was it was a chance that the loft of
• 15:40
  Speaker 4: cheek I had in front of in front of goal,
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: and Viney makes makes a time we save.
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: And but besides.
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: That, like cross is going in headers is going, why
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: shots going you know, into the into the stands. It
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: was it was a bit of you know, I don't know.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: It was just there was chances, but nothing super threatening
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: and dangerous. So I think, you know, Napolis defense obviously
• 16:06
  Speaker 4: stood sort a bit more tall, but again there wasn't
• 16:09
  Speaker 4: really much that Mew was.
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: Was threatening them with.
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: So I find it was more you know, side to
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: side passes and and you know, trying to break through,
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: and you know, when we got caught on the calendar
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: or what have you, it.
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: Was, uh, it was pretty much game over.
• 16:24
  Speaker 7: And I think that's probably very very very fair to say,
• 16:26
  Speaker 7: because you know, Milan had most of the possession. It
• 16:29
  Speaker 7: wasn't as if like Napoli, Yeah, like you know, dominating
• 16:32
  Speaker 7: in terms of holding that ball. It was just it
• 16:35
  Speaker 7: was just it was it was. It was Milan getting
• 16:37
  Speaker 7: you know, fourteen shots. I love it on target, but
• 16:40
  Speaker 7: not even hold on it was it three uh sorry,
• 16:43
  Speaker 7: three on target? It was fourteen shots three on target,
• 16:45
  Speaker 7: like it was. It was the inverse I meant to say.
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: But either way, it's.
• 16:51
  Speaker 7: It's just one of those games where just all bounced
• 16:53
  Speaker 7: for towards Napoli's direction. I think that's probably the best
• 16:56
  Speaker 7: way to say it. Wouldn't like to be an awful
• 17:00
  Speaker 7: on city, Yeah, obviously, because there's really not much.
• 17:03
  Speaker 5: But well that's it now.
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: It's it's now. Now. There's no excuses.
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: Every meal one finds looking at them now and it's like,
• 17:08
  Speaker 4: well listen, max it there's no more excuses.
• 17:11
  Speaker 5: Repeat twenty eleven. Please you want that second start at
• 17:15
  Speaker 5: our jerseys hopefully.
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah tomorrow inter Bologna. Do you guys have any quick
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: thoughts about that before we move on to the city.
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: Uh, Johnny, I'll watch you go first on this one.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: I actually I do want to say something I feel
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: like for for Bologna, it's uh, there's a lot more.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: Importance uh than for Inter. I don't know, you know where.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: Like what the starting lineups are going to be, right,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: But I feel like for Bologna, yes, they already won
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: the Cope last year, but this is this is a
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: chance at a different trophy. This is a chance at
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: another trophy versus Inter. You know they've I don't know
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: if they've recently won. I forget if they won it
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: last year, the super Copa, but you know they're they
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: have bigger things on their mind, right, I won last year, Meal,
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: I won last year.
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd have to look up when was the last
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: time interweed?
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: So I do think that the year before the postive,
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: the back to back years.
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: I think before Meland if I'm a mistaken, okay, and
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: then it was you before that.
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: If I I've seen a post about.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: It, really yeah, I saw today you've won last time
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, and then I think Inter won the
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: next two and then me won me on Milan one
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: last season.
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: If I'm yeah, that's exactly it.
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: Sorry, Interaction won three in a row, oh is it?
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: Three?
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: Twenty twenty one, twenty twenty two, twenty twenty three.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: Sorry, there you go.
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: So, yeah, there you go.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: I think for Bologna there's gonna be a lot more important,
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: So I think they're gonna come out hard. I mean,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: we'll have to see the starting lineups.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah.
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: And I think I think honestly, Bologna is probably gonna
• 18:46
  Speaker 5: be hungry for it. They're gonna I don't think.
• 18:49
  Speaker 7: I don't think Interre is gonna like obviously they're gonna,
• 18:51
  Speaker 7: you know, be competitive about it, but I don't think
• 18:53
  Speaker 7: in there is gonna take it seriously as Bologna, will
• 18:55
  Speaker 7: you know, like also going in as dinner dogs. You know,
• 18:58
  Speaker 7: it's like Blognias, like obviously, like even though we know
• 19:02
  Speaker 7: that they're not underdogs underdogs, it's like they're going in
• 19:05
  Speaker 7: as underdogs nonetheless, so they're definitely they don't have like
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: expectations to maintain interdoes you know. And even at that,
• 19:16
  Speaker 7: like the fans are like, Okay, if we lose, who cares,
• 19:18
  Speaker 7: we can just state it's the Super Copa and if
• 19:20
  Speaker 7: they win, they're going to celebrate, so you know, it's
• 19:22
  Speaker 7: whereas Bologna, it's like they want to have that storyline
• 19:25
  Speaker 7: of beating inter in the Super Copa and.
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: Then trying to fight for it, not only win to coal.
• 19:30
  Speaker 7: Now you try to win the Super Copa and they
• 19:32
  Speaker 7: they they have like a goal to strive for.
• 19:35
  Speaker 5: You know, that's the way. That's the way I see it.
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think, you know, and that's like
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: similar to last season, right with the Coptalio win, right
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: there was you know, maybe to some unexpected uh they
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: went out and wonted and you know, shut out to them.
• 19:49
  Speaker 4: They you know, they beat me one last season and
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: you know, they were the they were the better team
• 19:52
  Speaker 4: on the day.
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: And I think again it's it's.
• 19:54
  Speaker 4: It's another opportunity for for a manager like to to
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: to get ends on on on silverware.
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: You know, the last.
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: Season's uh Cope Italia was was one thing, and I
• 20:08
  Speaker 4: know the.
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: Super Cupa is a lesser of of that.
• 20:10
  Speaker 4: But you know, he's he's proven that he's able to
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: to be a manager that is able to adapt and
• 20:17
  Speaker 4: and get to you know, be able to be competitive
• 20:20
  Speaker 4: on on multiple fronts and different competitions and and get
• 20:24
  Speaker 4: the finals. And you know, unfortunately he's been on the
• 20:27
  Speaker 4: losing end of quite a.
• 20:29
  Speaker 3: Few of them.
• 20:29
  Speaker 4: But this is another opportunity to to get into a
• 20:33
  Speaker 4: final and and maybe have you know, a chance of
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: getting getting.
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: Another trophy under your belt.
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: So I think, you know, for for Bolonia's sake, it's
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: it's it's even for Italian I know sake, it's it's
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: I think.
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: A pretty big game.
• 20:48
  Speaker 4: I guess you can say I want to put big
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: game in quotations there. But with Inter's recent up and
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: down and you know they were good, but then they wire.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: You know, shakey, it's let's see what Inter.
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: Comes out comes out to point tomorrow. It's either I
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: feel like it's gonna go two ways. It's either gonna
• 21:06
  Speaker 4: be that they're gonna there's no in between. I think
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: they're either gonna wipe the four Bologna or they're just
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: gonna not show up and lay an egg like like
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: Johnny said. So we'll see what Kivu puts out there
• 21:16
  Speaker 4: as well, because I'm curious to see that because again
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: there's uh, there's big games coming up in the city
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: calendar and obviously in Europe.
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: For for a team like Inter. So we'll see.
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: But I think I think for Bolonia's sake, and especially
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: for Italiano's sake, it's a it's a it's a game
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: where I think they want to result and they want
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: to get to that final on Monday, and you know,
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: maybe get their hands on some more solverware.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: You you heard it here first guys. It's gonna go
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: one of two ways. Either Inter is gonna win or
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: Bologna is gonna win.
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: Well, I put some I put some more to angle
• 21:52
  Speaker 4: and juice on that, but yes, essentially that I guess.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: Uh, Bologna is coming off the one nothing lost to
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: You've in the city, a game that you've scored first
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: and didn't tie, So I mean progress, right, I mean
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: I think this was It was a tough game obviously
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: for for Uve. I'm happy, very happy with win, and
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: I think it was there was there was some coaching changes.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Obviously Cabal coming on and scoring. He you know, he
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: didn't come on to score, but he did come on
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: and score. And I think Splett he did a good
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: job managing the game. You know, it was frustrating the
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: David Gold ruled off side, just offside by not much
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: from McKenny. It's it's frustrating as a striker when you
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: know there's a goal ruled off side and it's not
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: even him the one that that's offside, right, But I
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: do think this is this is the big game that
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: you've needed to win. I know there was some comments online.
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: I know, you know, Peter from IF TV was talking
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: about how he thinks, you know, Uve's back in the
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: school that the race. For me, personally, I think they're
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: too far off. They've lost their drop points in too
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: many big games to be back in that conversation there.
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: I think it's like seven points off of Inter. I
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: know there's a lot of soccer left, but you know
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: it gives you you've the chance to fight for the
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: top four, which is the goal that they pretty much
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: set for the season right and now with the game
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: against Roma coming up on the weekend, that's the that's
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: the other opportunity. We talked about before the Bologna game,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: how big of a game that was. This is the
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: other big game and they just think continue proving that
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: they deserve the win. And how many times have I
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: said it, It's like, Okay, this is a good game,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: but they need to do it again next week. So
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: you've ade they are in a good spell right now,
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: especially between the wins and the Champions League. Now this win,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: you know, combined with winning Copietalia as well. So I
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: think you've just has to finish the year strong. I forget,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: I guess they I think they played Roma. You know,
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: they played Roma obviously the weekend. This weekend, I forget
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: who they play after before before the end of the year.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: It's Pisa on December twenty seventh. So these are these
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: are two games. You know you've wants to walk away
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: with six points. You know, in terms of offense, obviously
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: we see Valvich is out it it does have an impact.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: I think David has been playing better. You know, he
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: obviously scored twice in the Champions League. Now he had
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: that goal ruled out for offside, but it is good
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: to see, you know, the offensive contributions from a defender.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: But I think you know, for you let's say this
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: game against Roma, they need they need goals from their strikers,
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: whether that's going to be Opendo who starts or David
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: who starts.
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: It needs to it needs to come from the front.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: He can be relying on on center backs and win
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: packs to score offset pieces to win these games. Regardless,
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: great great effort. I don't think Bologna had you know,
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: many chances that were like, oh you know Bologna absolutely
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: deserves to win this game or tie this game. I
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: think you've played sound defensively. They did dominate, dominate possession
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: fifty five to forty five. The shots were thirteen tonight
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: in favor of You've so kind of goes with that. Yeah,
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: good good, But got to continue.
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: Uh, I just wanted to ask to that we said.
• 25:06
  Speaker 4: We've been saying it right the last couple of weeks.
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: I think since the NAPO WE match, right, Nick, I
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: think it was the this three stretch game games of
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: that have been coming up. The nap WE one, the
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: the one against Bologna, and now the one against Roma.
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: These are going to be the crucial ones. I didn't
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: realize they had another game.
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: Against Pisa, but again that that needs to be that
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: needed to be all wins. Unfortunately the not one went
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: the way it went.
• 25:28
  Speaker 5: But maybe unfortunately no no for.
• 25:32
  Speaker 4: For that for him, Yeah, I'm mystatic, but for the
• 25:36
  Speaker 4: human teeming of the world there, I don't know, like
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: they want the maximum points every match. But just to
• 25:43
  Speaker 4: even echo to what you said about Peter from my
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: f TV's point, I think I think you know You've
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: is gonna stick around like I don't know if the
• 25:52
  Speaker 4: scudo is uh.
• 25:55
  Speaker 3: You know, in reach, try to reach whatever.
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: But I think they'll stick around in the conversation because,
• 26:00
  Speaker 4: like I kind of said to Nick before we kind
• 26:02
  Speaker 4: of kicked off here, you know, it's it's crowded at
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: the top, right.
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: That's kind of been.
• 26:08
  Speaker 4: You know, the kind of the analysis of of how
• 26:11
  Speaker 4: after fifteen match days in Sidiyah, how the how the
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: league has been going. I think from what there's only
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: three points that separate first and third or first and
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: fourth or whatever it is.
• 26:22
  Speaker 7: So I'll let you know right now it is three
• 26:25
  Speaker 7: points to separate first from fourth.
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: First from fourth.
• 26:28
  Speaker 4: There you go, so listen, it's it's it's really anybody's
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: for the taking.
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: I think you're still in the mix.
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: I remember from you know, before the season started, I
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: had them probably finishing fourth of them, if I'm not mistaken.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: So I think I think they'll stick around.
• 26:43
  Speaker 4: I think the the you know.
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: A little bit of stability with Spalletti.
• 26:49
  Speaker 4: I think it took some time, but you know so
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: so I think he's kind of building some sort of stability.
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: Even if you like him as a manager or don't
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: like him as a manager, there's some stability there and
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: it seems like the players are kind of of binding
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: into what he's.
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: What he's implementing.
• 27:02
  Speaker 4: So listen, another win, three points, you know, clean sheet.
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know, you'ven'teen. He can't really asked
• 27:11
  Speaker 4: for too much more. At the end of the day,
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: the three points is all that matter. So it's it's
• 27:16
  Speaker 4: a shame because I think Bolonnia didn't play their best
• 27:18
  Speaker 4: match and it's a team that have given has given
• 27:22
  Speaker 4: everybody you know, fits these past couple of years. So
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: I think Boonie will be you know, bounced back. But
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: you know, you've a You've got the job done and
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: that's pretty much all they needed to do.
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: Jenny thoughts on Roma. You've maybe this weekend, I hope wins.
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean like it is, a Roma might.
• 27:44
  Speaker 4: Need their strikers to score two because they can't just
• 27:46
  Speaker 4: depend on Wesley the wing back either, so it's the
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: bottle of strikers and forced to score.
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: Hopefully.
• 27:52
  Speaker 5: You're not wrong.
• 27:53
  Speaker 7: You're not wrong, and especially with being one of the
• 27:54
  Speaker 7: weaker sides offensively and said, yeah, you know, like only
• 27:57
  Speaker 7: sixteen goals for when you look at the rest of
• 27:59
  Speaker 7: the competition, it's not that's not it's like.
• 28:02
  Speaker 5: That's that's just slightly above a goal of game.
• 28:04
  Speaker 7: You can't you can't expect to do anything in the
• 28:08
  Speaker 7: long run if that's what you're getting in your offensive production.
• 28:11
  Speaker 3: So it's that they're they're not conceding as many though there's.
• 28:16
  Speaker 7: No exactly the s playing above and beyond expectations. So
• 28:21
  Speaker 7: it's gonna suck when he gets bought up by Real
• 28:23
  Speaker 7: Madrid this upcoming summer.
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: Oh god, or Liverpool, because that's what the history is like.
• 28:30
  Speaker 5: Apparently difficult just likes buying Roma players.
• 28:33
  Speaker 7: But in all seriousness, we need to have like a
• 28:39
  Speaker 7: guest Bedini masterclass in this matchup, because this game is
• 28:45
  Speaker 7: pretty much like either you extend your lead on you
• 28:49
  Speaker 7: by seven points or you've ased just not one point
• 28:52
  Speaker 7: in punching distance from you, depending on the result.
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: Here.
• 28:55
  Speaker 5: Yeah, you know what I'm saying.
• 28:56
  Speaker 7: So it's it's a very very important game. As I
• 29:00
  Speaker 7: like to call them, that's a six it's a six
• 29:02
  Speaker 7: point game. It's a six point game because you got
• 29:05
  Speaker 7: somebody right behind you that's trying to tail you, so
• 29:08
  Speaker 7: you can either give yourself a nice, big, comfortable space
• 29:10
  Speaker 7: or you just lost all that. So, uh, I obviously
• 29:16
  Speaker 7: hope Roma wins a six point game, but seeing how
• 29:19
  Speaker 7: you've last games, seem to have found some kind of rhythm,
• 29:24
  Speaker 7: some kind of you know, I guess momentum, uh, you know,
• 29:30
  Speaker 7: the stride.
• 29:31
  Speaker 5: It's it's worrisome.
• 29:33
  Speaker 7: It's worry same it's a because at the end of
• 29:35
  Speaker 7: the day's Uventus they we all know that they have
• 29:38
  Speaker 7: some kind of threat on paper.
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: At some point Roma does too, but.
• 29:45
  Speaker 7: It's it's more like Roma has been very heavily dependent
• 29:49
  Speaker 7: on the back end to save them from gay day
• 29:51
  Speaker 7: in and day out, and it's like, how much longer
• 29:53
  Speaker 7: can you sustain that. I know, it's not hockey, where
• 29:55
  Speaker 7: the game's fast enough where it's like you can't sustain
• 29:58
  Speaker 7: it forever.
• 29:59
  Speaker 5: Soccer, because it's a slower paced game.
• 30:00
  Speaker 7: You could argue that you can have some sustainabilities, especially
• 30:05
  Speaker 7: in sidi ah.
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: But the bill comes due at some point, you know
• 30:10
  Speaker 5: what I'm saying. The bill comes do at some point,
• 30:12
  Speaker 5: and I'm just hoping that the waiter doesn't show.
• 30:14
  Speaker 7: Up with the bill during the U a Roma game
• 30:17
  Speaker 7: and you can't pay.
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: You pay, you pay the words.
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: It wasn't there whole story a while ago about Conte
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: I forget exactly, something about you can't.
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: Pay and you can't, Yeah, you can't, you can't go
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: to a what was it, Oh my god, you can't
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: pay restaurant, hundred year old meal for ten year olds. Yeah, exactly,
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: the typical Conte presser mind games and all that stuff,
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: or the.
• 30:53
  Speaker 5: Di Spiletti storytelling.
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah maybe, yeah, maybe maybe Spiletti will hit will hit
• 30:59
  Speaker 4: the pressor with with one of his uh letla buys there,
• 31:02
  Speaker 4: one of those soliloquies as he always likes to do,
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: as he likes. But just quickly, Johnny, I wanted to
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: get your quick thoughts on the potential. I saw the
• 31:14
  Speaker 4: rumors there, but it looks like it might happen of
• 31:16
  Speaker 4: the ball probably leaving uh on a free I know
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: he's been in and out of the lineup. You know,
• 31:20
  Speaker 4: he's he's uh, he's been devoted and you know he's
• 31:24
  Speaker 4: really giving himself.
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: Uh you know, uh for for roma.
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: But you know, if he ends up leaving this summer,
• 31:30
  Speaker 4: is it uh is it good riddance or is it
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: a sorry farewell?
• 31:35
  Speaker 7: It's it's it's gonna be uh sorry, like a good
• 31:38
  Speaker 7: for forget, like a.
• 31:39
  Speaker 5: For a while type of thing. Because I don't think
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: he had any either anything malicious here.
• 31:43
  Speaker 7: It's just the guy was played good injuries, you know,
• 31:46
  Speaker 7: And I mean if Roma wants to, like if I
• 31:50
  Speaker 7: was Roma would try my best to just keep him
• 31:52
  Speaker 7: around because you know, it's it's Deballa and if you
• 31:54
  Speaker 7: can get him, if you can keep him design cheaper
• 31:56
  Speaker 7: or whatever, Like I think he I think he enjoys
• 31:58
  Speaker 7: staying in Italy, that's the thing, like he I don't think.
• 32:02
  Speaker 7: I don't like I could see him maybe going to
• 32:04
  Speaker 7: maybe what Spain probably or I.
• 32:06
  Speaker 3: Think there's probably bout Argentina. Maybe maybe like.
• 32:09
  Speaker 7: Hey, if he wants to go home, and that might
• 32:11
  Speaker 7: be better for him in the long run, Like I
• 32:12
  Speaker 7: wouldn't blame them.
• 32:14
  Speaker 2: Maybe is gonna give him good good money for Montreal.
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, maybe maybe maybe maybe we would.
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: Ring maybe Rock Super Super.
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: Maybe he'd be better over there.
• 32:27
  Speaker 7: But like I have no ill wishes towards Deballa. If
• 32:31
  Speaker 7: you if the guy wants to leave, the guy wants
• 32:32
  Speaker 7: to leave. He came here on a free he tried
• 32:35
  Speaker 7: and when he did play, you know, he did play
• 32:37
  Speaker 7: his best. It wasn't as if he had a game
• 32:39
  Speaker 7: where I was like, what the fuck is Debaalo doing
• 32:41
  Speaker 7: it was just more like get injured again, injured again,
• 32:44
  Speaker 7: you know what I mean.
• 32:46
  Speaker 5: The only thing that just worries me is that with
• 32:48
  Speaker 5: Diballo leaving, I don't know if is going to stick
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: her out afterwards either.
• 32:51
  Speaker 7: Now Orf is gonna look for a way to you know,
• 32:54
  Speaker 7: to look at look on his way out because I
• 32:57
  Speaker 7: don't know.
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: I feel like, uh, well, the opportunity is there for
• 33:00
  Speaker 4: him to really take this team on his and put
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: him on his back if you ask me.
• 33:04
  Speaker 3: But it's if he's willing to do that.
• 33:07
  Speaker 5: Story, Yeah, then that's that's the thing. Is he willing
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: to do that?
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 33:12
  Speaker 7: Yeah, So it's uh, it's tough because I wanted it
• 33:16
  Speaker 7: to be better for him. I wanted him to have
• 33:19
  Speaker 7: a better experience at ROMA. But you know, cameronly blame
• 33:22
  Speaker 7: the guy for for always being injured and stuff is
• 33:26
  Speaker 7: just life.
• 33:28
  Speaker 5: It's it's just it's just the way it is.
• 33:30
  Speaker 7: It would have been cool though, because especially like when
• 33:33
  Speaker 7: we had the Luca could balls connection, like them healthy
• 33:37
  Speaker 7: together at the same time would have been pretty scary.
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: But you know, then during that time, you have lack
• 33:43
  Speaker 5: of a bat like you have lack of.
• 33:44
  Speaker 7: A really strong manager to help him out, you know,
• 33:47
  Speaker 7: and like and then uh, when when you finally get
• 33:51
  Speaker 7: a manager like guess but I was like, all right,
• 33:53
  Speaker 7: well I'm out the door now. And it's like okay, great,
• 33:55
  Speaker 7: Like now we actually are getting some kind of stability,
• 33:58
  Speaker 7: and we're losing proper in terms of talent, in terms
• 34:02
  Speaker 7: of talent just pure talent.
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: We're losing our most talented player. But we got him
• 34:07
  Speaker 5: for free and he's leaving for free. So I can't
• 34:09
  Speaker 5: you know what I mean.
• 34:10
  Speaker 7: Like, it's like I can't really complain because you didn't
• 34:13
  Speaker 7: spend money to get this guy.
• 34:14
  Speaker 5: He didn't buy him off. You got this Let's say
• 34:16
  Speaker 5: he came to you on a free and he's least
• 34:18
  Speaker 5: he's leaving on a free, so and he's making his
• 34:20
  Speaker 5: attentions known.
• 34:21
  Speaker 7: It's like as if he's gonna come out and be like,
• 34:23
  Speaker 7: oh yeah, by the way, child buy It's like, you
• 34:25
  Speaker 7: know what I mean, He's like.
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: Nah, I think it's it's a mutual thing. They're not
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: going to resign him.
• 34:29
  Speaker 7: Yeah, And I don't think and I don't think there's
• 34:31
  Speaker 7: any ill wishes from either side.
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: I don't think there's any ill wishes from OtherSide. I
• 34:35
  Speaker 5: think it's a mutual, like you know what this is.
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: If you think it's the best for your career, we
• 34:39
  Speaker 5: respect it. Uh, you know, like we want you to stay,
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: but obviously you know you can't. You can't force them.
• 34:48
  Speaker 5: So I think that's what it is.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: Guys on one team, I know we all want to
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: talk about right now, fieran Tina zero winds, zero wins
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: on this season in the city. They lost uh to
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: Verona to two to one this weekend at home two
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: goals from Gift or Band, so a nice gift for
• 35:08
  Speaker 1: the Fiorentina fans right before Christmas. Bottom of the league
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: right now, let's just let me just pull up the
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: the table. Uh yeah, bottom of the league, eight points
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: from safety. I know these points are more or less
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: easy to make up. There are a lot of you know,
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: if you're comparing let's say, eight points from safety versus
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: eight points from a Sudetto, it's a lot easier to
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: make up eight points from safety. But guys, it's it's troublesome.
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: You don't want to see Farentina and in city of
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: b This is a team that's literally playing in in
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: in Europe right now. Uh, and they're kind of doing well.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: I know they lost today, but they they were, they were,
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: they were kind of doing well in the conference league. Yeah,
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: obviously Vanoli came in about a month ago, more than
• 35:58
  Speaker 1: a month ago now in November seven. Still yeah, like
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: I said, they still haven't gotten in that win. I
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: think it's six losses and nine draws. Are sorry, nine
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: losses six draws for Fiorantina. Personally, I do think I
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: do see you know, a scenario which they save themselves
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: and they remain in City I next next year with
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: a nice seventeenth place finish forty I want to say
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: forty points, because that would require a lot of wins,
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: maybe like thirty eight, thirty seven from here on out.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: But considering there are twenty three games left, they're gonna
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: have to start winning a lot of games. I mean what,
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: I know, there's no magic solution, but Adrian, what do
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: you think they have to do besides maybe fire Vanoli
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: and you know, go get a random coach, because that's
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: obviously not the solution. We know that, No, it's not.
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: Obviously David Nicole is not available. So maybe if he
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: becomes available, you go out and get him. But you
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: also have to wonder it's also mentally within the players, within.
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: The locker room.
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's crazy, like I was even seen and like,
• 37:03
  Speaker 4: you know where, I forget who what really where? I
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: saw it from first, but there was many many people
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: that posted about it. But you know, last season, this time,
• 37:13
  Speaker 4: you know, Fiudentina's tied for first place. Fast forward to
• 37:17
  Speaker 4: this season and they're in dead last with zero wins.
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: After fifteen match days in the Setia Like that just
• 37:23
  Speaker 3: unheard of.
• 37:24
  Speaker 4: It's like the worst start to a season that they've
• 37:27
  Speaker 4: ever had in their history. And this is one of
• 37:29
  Speaker 4: you know the set right, So this is the seven
• 37:32
  Speaker 4: Sisters of Setiya. You know, Fidentina's is is a historic
• 37:35
  Speaker 4: club obviously in a historic city, and uh, you know,
• 37:39
  Speaker 4: it's a it's an important piazza. It's obviously maybe not
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: the big three, but it's it's it's it's it's still
• 37:45
  Speaker 4: it's still you know, a big piachta to play for.
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: So listen, I don't know it's I don't think there
• 37:51
  Speaker 4: is one solution. I think there's a multitude of things
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: that are that are wrong. I think from from top
• 37:56
  Speaker 4: to bottom. You know, it's unfortunately, you know, even though
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: you know I guess I'll always be grateful for what
• 38:02
  Speaker 4: Poi did for me on for winning that Scudetto. It's
• 38:07
  Speaker 4: it's a shame that they let him go for so
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: long and kind of dig this grave for them, and
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: now they're trying to escape from it and they can't.
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: They bring in Vanoli, who I think had some some
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: good signs when he was with Torino, right, he was
• 38:24
  Speaker 4: with Torino at one point and and and doing some
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: some some good things there. And again, what do you
• 38:31
  Speaker 4: want Vanoli to do? This team has no wins. The
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: game over the weekend against Verona, a goal at the
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: at the pretty much at the death that looked like
• 38:41
  Speaker 4: it was out of bounds. He cuts it back across
• 38:44
  Speaker 4: the goal, beats the heya. It just there's no luck.
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: Like the stars aren't aligned for this Fidentina team. It's
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: it's a bit crazy, if you ask me, so. I
• 38:54
  Speaker 4: don't think just by Saki managers is going to do
• 38:56
  Speaker 4: it personally. I do think it starts a bit upstairs
• 39:00
  Speaker 4: as well. You know, it's you know the players, right,
• 39:06
  Speaker 4: you know, you see you know Jeco going to the
• 39:09
  Speaker 4: Cordva and saying, you know, listen, back us, back us,
• 39:12
  Speaker 4: we need your support. We will do better. We will
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: continue to fight, and I think they have been fighting.
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: I think they've just been a bit unlucky in certain
• 39:21
  Speaker 4: situations because and it's weird because you know, in Europe
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: they've been doing decently well. I know, like you said, Nick,
• 39:30
  Speaker 4: they lost today the one nil against I think it
• 39:32
  Speaker 4: was Losan, But they've looked like a different team in Europe,
• 39:36
  Speaker 4: and I don't know, it's it's one of these things
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: that I think this is maybe last season was a
• 39:43
  Speaker 4: fash in the pan, or maybe I don't know, maybe
• 39:46
  Speaker 4: this season is a flash in the pan.
• 39:47
  Speaker 3: Like who knows. But you know, there's a reason.
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: I think why a manager like you know, Palladino left
• 39:54
  Speaker 4: this this Feudentina team, right like I think under him,
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: if you just stayed the stayed the course and and
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: continue with this team, I think they could have done,
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: you know, good things, you know, you know, fast forward
• 40:05
  Speaker 4: to where he is now. He's he's at Atalanta now
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: and he's he's had a pretty good start. So I
• 40:11
  Speaker 4: think the foot flopping of managers and you know, I
• 40:15
  Speaker 4: think there's still quite a bit of the Puoli in
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: print on this team and kind of maybe his players
• 40:21
  Speaker 4: and his and his system and and Venoa's you're trying
• 40:24
  Speaker 4: to pick up the pieces and work with what he
• 40:26
  Speaker 4: has and and and and go from there. And again,
• 40:29
  Speaker 4: I personally don't think the squad or the roster is
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: is terrible because a lot of these players are from
• 40:37
  Speaker 4: last season. You know, you had a couple of additions
• 40:39
  Speaker 4: here and there and maybe some subtractions, but it's not
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: like it was a total overhaul from last season to
• 40:45
  Speaker 4: this season. So you kind of, you know, beg the
• 40:48
  Speaker 4: question and kind of think it's like, well, what is it?
• 40:50
  Speaker 3: You know?
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: So I think it is mentally from from top to bottom.
• 40:55
  Speaker 4: And I again, like I said, there's not one thing
• 40:57
  Speaker 4: to blame. I think it's a multitude of things. But
• 41:01
  Speaker 4: they're gonna have to shape up fast because there is
• 41:04
  Speaker 4: a serious possibility that they go down to Cetia B.
• 41:07
  Speaker 4: And we've said this on the show before for other
• 41:09
  Speaker 4: teams that we kind of were talking about potential, you know,
• 41:12
  Speaker 4: going down to Ceitia B and maybe us not wanting
• 41:14
  Speaker 4: that to happen. And you know, if you want to
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: put Devil's Advocate, you know that quote unquote blessing in disguise,
• 41:20
  Speaker 4: Like we've said in the past, you know, right for
• 41:21
  Speaker 4: you know, the teams like you know Genua or Sambdoria
• 41:24
  Speaker 4: or you know Sasuolo, right of more recent times, you
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: don't want these teams to go down just because of
• 41:31
  Speaker 4: the history of you know, being in Seria and just
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: you know, it's when you think, I said, yeah, these
• 41:35
  Speaker 4: teams are there, right, and fiudent Tina is always there, right, So.
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: Maybe it is.
• 41:42
  Speaker 4: It might be just blessing in disguise if they do
• 41:44
  Speaker 4: go down. But you know, time is right now, I
• 41:47
  Speaker 4: know there's still a lot of culture to be played.
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: You know, if you said nick to twenty three matches left,
• 41:53
  Speaker 4: but in you know, fifteen matchdays, you have no wins,
• 41:57
  Speaker 4: like yeah, and it's like even the game against Verona,
• 42:02
  Speaker 4: it's like they were like, you know, not even that
• 42:06
  Speaker 4: they were gonna win, they were gonna tie again, Like
• 42:08
  Speaker 4: it was like another like rinse repeat, like week in
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: and week out. And I feel like the more this happens,
• 42:15
  Speaker 4: it's like a snowball effect that the more this continues
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: to happen, it's it sucks up with your with your
• 42:21
  Speaker 4: psyche and these players are like, well, we need to win,
• 42:24
  Speaker 4: and now it's like okay, Well, we don't win here,
• 42:26
  Speaker 4: and now it's like a snowball effect of like, oh
• 42:29
  Speaker 4: my god, like if we don't win here, then we're
• 42:30
  Speaker 4: gonna continuously go down and it's it's it's a mess.
• 42:34
  Speaker 4: So I think, you know, again, I don't know, they're
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: they need to go on like maybe a serious of
• 42:40
  Speaker 4: the tito. I had heard they are already on some
• 42:42
  Speaker 4: sort of tito. You know, they're not really talking to
• 42:44
  Speaker 4: the media either.
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: You know, the win so stomp a deal. But I
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: don't know. Something has to give.
• 42:51
  Speaker 4: I think they need to really look within and fight
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: even harder than they are, because it's impossible to me
• 42:58
  Speaker 4: to say that.
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: Like I said earlier, a team that was tied in.
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: First place last season is now in last place with
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: zero wins. And you had your uh, you know, a
• 43:08
  Speaker 4: co player in moys Keen who has I don't know
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: like what one goal in said, Yeah, I don't even
• 43:16
  Speaker 4: think he has scored in Sidiya Like it's been very
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: bleak from him too. So and these are some players
• 43:20
  Speaker 4: of quality that they have on the field, So.
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: Listen.
• 43:25
  Speaker 4: If they end up partying ways with Vanoia, I don't
• 43:28
  Speaker 4: see how that will work in their favor. They're going
• 43:31
  Speaker 4: to have to write some sort of course. They wrote
• 43:33
  Speaker 4: it too long with Puoli again, it I don't know
• 43:39
  Speaker 4: upstairs comis so I don't know, has to pull some
• 43:41
  Speaker 4: sort of strings.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: You know. Their sporting director.
• 43:45
  Speaker 4: Too in the winter time, I know they got rid
• 43:47
  Speaker 4: of I think that day was there.
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: I don't think he's there anymore, and and he kind
• 43:51
  Speaker 3: of lost the plot a bit there too, So I
• 43:55
  Speaker 3: don't know.
• 43:56
  Speaker 4: They they need to do something fast because this is
• 43:59
  Speaker 4: too much of an important team and an important piazza
• 44:02
  Speaker 4: to to see go down in Citi.
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: I b but we'll see what happens.
• 44:05
  Speaker 4: And again it so who they played this week I
• 44:07
  Speaker 4: didn't see on the ticker there, and that's not that's
• 44:14
  Speaker 4: That's been a tricky team for a lot of teams
• 44:16
  Speaker 4: this season as well, so.
• 44:17
  Speaker 3: It might not get any easier.
• 44:18
  Speaker 4: They're gonna need some sort of luck that they haven't
• 44:20
  Speaker 4: had all up until this point.
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: So I honestly, I don't know what it is.
• 44:26
  Speaker 4: Maybe some reinforcements in the winter time too, but that
• 44:28
  Speaker 4: comes at a premium, and you know, they're I don't
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: know if they're in a in a spot to really
• 44:32
  Speaker 4: spend more money or you know, kind of you know,
• 44:37
  Speaker 4: go in different directions.
• 44:38
  Speaker 3: So they might have to stay the.
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: Course with what they have and and play with that.
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: But if it doesn't change fast. Honestly, a few weeks
• 44:46
  Speaker 4: like maybe like four or five weeks ago, I would
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: have said, okay, it was and there's still time they'll
• 44:50
  Speaker 4: still be able to to do it. But as the
• 44:53
  Speaker 4: weeks go by, and as the matchups get tougher, and
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: as this snowball effect continues, I'm starting to it's starting
• 44:59
  Speaker 4: to treat more in my mind that you know, there's
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: a serious chance that Fieldentina goes on to city of
• 45:03
  Speaker 4: being It's not it's not a headline that a personally
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: I would like to see.
• 45:11
  Speaker 5: I think that's well said.
• 45:15
  Speaker 7: It's just it's very shameful if if that were to happen,
• 45:17
  Speaker 7: or they just you know get bumped down, and especially
• 45:22
  Speaker 7: for how long they've been said. Ah, it's it's tough,
• 45:26
  Speaker 7: and it's weird because you seemoys can play for the
• 45:28
  Speaker 7: tai national team and it's a different players, you know.
• 45:30
  Speaker 7: It's like that's just like it's a small little test
• 45:33
  Speaker 7: to testament to like it is a bigger issue beyond
• 45:37
  Speaker 7: the players on the pitch. Uh I don't know what
• 45:40
  Speaker 7: it will take to fix it. I don't have the
• 45:43
  Speaker 7: answer for this, and I don't even have an opinion
• 45:45
  Speaker 7: of this, because it's like where do you begin.
• 45:49
  Speaker 5: It's like where do you start? Like it's what is it?
• 45:55
  Speaker 7: It's I I don't know, and it's and it's unfortunate
• 46:00
  Speaker 7: because the players are feeling it too.
• 46:03
  Speaker 5: They're feeling the frustration, and I think they're I think
• 46:05
  Speaker 5: they're more frustrated than it than uh then than.
• 46:10
  Speaker 7: The player than the fans are, because like because it
• 46:13
  Speaker 7: kind of hurts your ego a bit too, where it's
• 46:15
  Speaker 7: like you're like you're playing game in and game out
• 46:18
  Speaker 7: and you're not getting any results, and like it is
• 46:22
  Speaker 7: because you're like, come on, we don't suck this much,
• 46:24
  Speaker 7: you know what I mean?
• 46:25
  Speaker 5: Like it's you can, you can have bad seasons, it's possible,
• 46:28
  Speaker 5: but you know your team is capable of winning games.
• 46:33
  Speaker 5: You know what.
• 46:33
  Speaker 7: The players that you have on that are gonna that
• 46:35
  Speaker 7: are on the that are on the turf with you,
• 46:37
  Speaker 7: they're capable of winning games.
• 46:38
  Speaker 2: So it's.
• 46:41
  Speaker 7: Yeah, at that point as where we started looking at
• 46:42
  Speaker 7: it around that and you start looking around, you're like,
• 46:44
  Speaker 7: where do we begin?
• 46:46
  Speaker 5: That's That's that's my opinion of it. It's like it's
• 46:50
  Speaker 5: I don't I don't even know what is the top
• 46:53
  Speaker 5: down to the top down thing.
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: Thing?
• 46:54
  Speaker 7: Maybe you do have maybe Caniso does have to consider things,
• 46:57
  Speaker 7: maybe even maybe he himself you know my it has
• 47:00
  Speaker 7: to like let go of the team a bit.
• 47:01
  Speaker 5: Who knows.
• 47:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that I even like after you know,
• 47:05
  Speaker 4: after the passing Joe Barron too, that kind of played
• 47:08
  Speaker 4: around with things too there. But do you think kind
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: of what I was echoing before about you know that
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: bussing in the skies, if they do go down and
• 47:16
  Speaker 4: they do retool and they do reshape and they and
• 47:18
  Speaker 4: they come up stronger, is that is that something? Because
• 47:23
  Speaker 4: I was listening to the fans, they're they're they're not
• 47:27
  Speaker 4: happy of course, Like they came out with that chant,
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: right you know, yeah, Sevin and beach tifat Coulo coo
• 47:34
  Speaker 4: z or whatever it was, and it was like it's
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: it's one of these things where it's they're frustrated, right
• 47:40
  Speaker 4: and you know rightfully so, so do you guys think.
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: Like maybe that you know that all a Genoa.
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: Allahoo going down to be will be a blessing in
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: disguise or will that just hurt them even more?
• 47:51
  Speaker 7: I mean, yeah, it could be a blessing in disguise,
• 47:54
  Speaker 7: but maybe because any time to figure out, Okay, what
• 47:56
  Speaker 7: what do we need to fix and go from there,
• 47:59
  Speaker 7: because it didn't work for sas solo, but it didn't work.
• 48:01
  Speaker 5: For general, you know what I mean.
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: It's true, so.
• 48:04
  Speaker 7: It I I don't like, like I think they would
• 48:08
  Speaker 7: definitely be back up immediately if they were going down
• 48:10
  Speaker 7: to the City at B. But it's gonna have its
• 48:13
  Speaker 7: consequences because there's definitely players that are gonna be on
• 48:16
  Speaker 7: that roster that are not.
• 48:17
  Speaker 5: Gonna be there. They're not gonna be too content of
• 48:20
  Speaker 5: going down to the City of b you know what I mean.
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: For sure, So.
• 48:25
  Speaker 5: I think if you go down to the City at.
• 48:26
  Speaker 7: Be, you lose a lot more then than just extra money,
• 48:32
  Speaker 7: you know, or fan support you lose. It's I feel
• 48:34
  Speaker 7: like you lose a lot more and it's a there's
• 48:37
  Speaker 7: a bigger picture at play, you know what I'm saying.
• 48:38
  Speaker 8: So you have an opportunity to as a rebirth, right, yeah,
• 48:44
  Speaker 8: Rebirth of the Phoenix. Well it could be yeah.
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: Guys, so this is our last episode of the year.
• 48:54
  Speaker 1: Uh, you know, we're going to twenty twenty six. Everyone
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: says their new New Year's resolutions.
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: This and that.
• 49:00
  Speaker 1: I think we did this last year, so I want
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: to bring it back. I want to hear what if
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: you were to set in a new Year's resolution for
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: each of your clubs, what would it be? So for me,
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: starting with you, A, I think what I want to
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: see from UVE in twenty twenty six, i'd I'd say,
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: besides finishing top four, bring a trophy home.
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: Obviously COPI Italia I think is the one to go.
• 49:28
  Speaker 1: If not, if you can't bring a trophy home, a
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: win a Champions League round. That's the last time you've
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: advanced in the Champions League in a knockout stage in
• 49:39
  Speaker 1: the Champions League was twenty nineteen with Ronaldo against Athletical Madrid.
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: So first of all, obviously they have to qualify, you know,
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: they we talked about it recently. They're in control of
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: their own that city now, especially after the win against Pafos.
• 49:53
  Speaker 1: Qualify for the knockout stage and then win the knockout
• 49:56
  Speaker 1: stage and then get to the round of sixteen and
• 49:59
  Speaker 1: if they could get to around sixteen to win it,
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: go out, make the quarterfinals. I don't expect you get
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: to win the Champions League or anything, or even challenge
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: for the title, but bring some bring some hope back
• 50:11
  Speaker 1: that we haven't seen in a long long time. It's
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: gonna be seven years, but I think the title one
• 50:16
  Speaker 1: is the one that for me is more important, going
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: and win that Copalia. I think they're you know, if
• 50:22
  Speaker 1: I remember correctly, they're on the side of the bracket
• 50:25
  Speaker 1: that it's it's pretty winnable for them. So if they
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: if they put their efforts into it, they'll go out
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: and they should. They could win the Copeitalia and obviously
• 50:34
  Speaker 1: top four that's a big one too, So it's kind
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: of like a three headed, three headed monster right now.
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: It's all about choosing priorities for you a but I
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: think it's realistic goals to set for the team. You know,
• 50:46
  Speaker 1: look seven years ago, if you would have told me that, oh,
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: goals top four, win Cope Italia, and win a Champions League,
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: not Champions League, ground have been like, are you stupid? Like,
• 50:56
  Speaker 1: but it's where it's where you ve is at right now,
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: and if all three things happened, I think I'll be
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: very happy.
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: With the end of the season.
• 51:04
  Speaker 4: Johnny, I'll let you go with UH with one of
• 51:07
  Speaker 4: your teams, because you're the only.
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: One here who has multiple so you could choose whatever
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: one you want.
• 51:14
  Speaker 5: Now, I would say Ouma is probably gonna be the
• 51:16
  Speaker 5: same thing in for top four. I think for Rama,
• 51:20
  Speaker 5: the goal for this year is you.
• 51:21
  Speaker 7: Finally have a realistic opportunity of finishing top four and said, yeah,
• 51:26
  Speaker 7: I think Roma's goal is getting into top four again
• 51:28
  Speaker 7: and getting into that Champions League contention, not saying you're
• 51:32
  Speaker 7: gonna do anything in Champions League, but just to finally
• 51:34
  Speaker 7: get that monkey off your back, so to speak.
• 51:37
  Speaker 4: What's been it's been since? When that's been since? Also
• 51:40
  Speaker 4: twenty nine? No, when it was last on? They were
• 51:42
  Speaker 4: in Champions League twenty nineteen, twenty eighteen, twenty yeaheen last decade.
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: Guys, we're gonna be halfway through the decade. We're like
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: things that happened last decade exactly.
• 51:55
  Speaker 4: So yeah, okay, So back into top four, back into
• 52:00
  Speaker 4: Champions League is where you want to see Roma?
• 52:02
  Speaker 7: Yep, that's my that's my my goal for Roma, to
• 52:06
  Speaker 7: get back into top four.
• 52:08
  Speaker 3: Do you want to go Napoli again first or you
• 52:10
  Speaker 3: want me to go you want.
• 52:12
  Speaker 5: I guess I'll just finish it up.
• 52:13
  Speaker 7: Monopoly might as well, so I don't hear the same
• 52:15
  Speaker 7: sound of my voice twice. Uh, Monopoly, I'm going bold.
• 52:20
  Speaker 7: The school that I want going bold, I want the
• 52:24
  Speaker 7: school that you have. Yeah, like you have Lukaku coming back.
• 52:31
  Speaker 7: Your team is uh not out of it.
• 52:34
  Speaker 5: You're still in it.
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 52:36
  Speaker 7: You have taken some you know some, you have some
• 52:41
  Speaker 7: losses that have been excruciating, but you have House like
• 52:44
  Speaker 7: in that span important wins too. So Uh, you're not
• 52:48
  Speaker 7: out of it just yet. It's just you can't sunk
• 52:50
  Speaker 7: up even more, is what I'm trying to say. So
• 52:53
  Speaker 7: for me, my goal for Anopoly or what I would
• 52:57
  Speaker 7: like for them, what I want for them for my
• 52:59
  Speaker 7: resolution is a nice fifth championship.
• 53:02
  Speaker 5: That would be pretty cool.
• 53:05
  Speaker 4: First, first of all, it was like pulling teeth for
• 53:08
  Speaker 4: Napoly to win them. Now that the fans they expected
• 53:11
  Speaker 4: every year, it's it's.
• 53:12
  Speaker 5: I'm not expecting I'm not expecting it. It's just because
• 53:14
  Speaker 5: they have a realistic shot at it.
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: That's even even just saying even Johnny just saying a fifth,
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: I'm like, wait, aren't they still on two?
• 53:23
  Speaker 3: They were for the longest time, you know, it went
• 53:25
  Speaker 3: from like three the three and.
• 53:27
  Speaker 4: Then they have to paint over the murals in Naples
• 53:29
  Speaker 4: and before it's it's you gotta love that city.
• 53:32
  Speaker 8: Man.
• 53:32
  Speaker 3: It's just it's just it's just it's so unique.
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: But it's like it's like with the Habs. In my head,
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: they're always twenty four times Stanley Cup champions. If I
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: ever see them win a Stanley Cup, they're still going
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: to be twenty four times Stanley.
• 53:44
  Speaker 3: Even if there they'll finally get to twenty five.
• 53:46
  Speaker 5: But let's hope that doesn't happen.
• 53:49
  Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. But and it just go bounce off to
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: what you were saying, Johnny, especially with.
• 53:57
  Speaker 4: You know, typical content, not like doing pretty ship in
• 54:01
  Speaker 4: Champions League. I think it's it's not you know, super
• 54:06
  Speaker 4: Outlanders to kind of say, you know, scudetto again. The
• 54:10
  Speaker 4: only thing is it's very hard to repeat. But I
• 54:13
  Speaker 4: think it's it's definitely doable. Like I said earlier, three
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: points separate, currently three points separate, you know, the top
• 54:19
  Speaker 4: four teams. So it's really anybody's for the taking. For
• 54:23
  Speaker 4: me to wrap it up for New Year's resolutions, I
• 54:26
  Speaker 4: guess for for Milan, I would say a bit more continuity, uh,
• 54:33
  Speaker 4: consistency and picking up results against the quote unquote smaller
• 54:40
  Speaker 4: teams in Sadia. That's been a bit of our kryptonite
• 54:42
  Speaker 4: this season for for Max, cl Agri and Melan, they've
• 54:46
  Speaker 4: shown up against you know, the big teams.
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: Uh, their direct rivals.
• 54:50
  Speaker 4: Unfortunately, there's a bit more smaller teams than there are
• 54:53
  Speaker 4: those big teams UH in Sadia, and those are the
• 54:55
  Speaker 4: results that have really been hurting Milan this season so far.
• 55:01
  Speaker 4: So I would say to have a bit more continuity
• 55:05
  Speaker 4: and and be able to pick up maximum points against
• 55:09
  Speaker 4: the teams that you should be picking up maximum points against.
• 55:14
  Speaker 4: Because if we look at the how the you know,
• 55:16
  Speaker 4: the calendar is kind of gone, you know, the results
• 55:18
  Speaker 4: against Cremonas, you know, Pisa, Padma, Sasol over the weekend,
• 55:24
  Speaker 4: you know things like that. It's it's games where you
• 55:28
  Speaker 4: look back on, and especially with me on officially now
• 55:32
  Speaker 4: one competition a week. There's no more Coporatetalia, there's no
• 55:36
  Speaker 4: more super Copa for US MEW and fans, there's no
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: more excuses. I think the Scudetto is in play, just
• 55:44
  Speaker 4: like Johnny said for for his Knapoly So I think
• 55:49
  Speaker 4: that is a goal and not dropping points against these
• 55:54
  Speaker 4: smaller teams as easy as they have been, and picking
• 55:59
  Speaker 4: up some more continuity in those games and stringing those results,
• 56:03
  Speaker 4: because at the end of the day, those are going
• 56:05
  Speaker 4: to be the results that when you look back at
• 56:08
  Speaker 4: the season is going to bite you in the ass
• 56:11
  Speaker 4: and you're not gonna be able to you know, raise
• 56:14
  Speaker 4: potentially raise that that trophy and and collect that second
• 56:17
  Speaker 4: start on on your on your kit for next season.
• 56:19
  Speaker 4: So again, I know it's still early for a lot
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: of the things that we're saying guys, but that's kind
• 56:26
  Speaker 4: of where I would say, we're all all our heads
• 56:30
  Speaker 4: are at for our teams.
• 56:32
  Speaker 3: I can't say that, you know, I.
• 56:34
  Speaker 4: Wish me On signs this player and that player in
• 56:36
  Speaker 4: that part because we're missing, you know, so many pieces
• 56:38
  Speaker 4: within the squad. But I think with what we have currently,
• 56:42
  Speaker 4: of course, we want everybody healthy, uh, for all our teams,
• 56:46
  Speaker 4: you know, our best players on the pitch to be
• 56:48
  Speaker 4: able to do the most damage.
• 56:51
  Speaker 5: You know, in.
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: Siria and and wherever else in other competitions.
• 56:55
  Speaker 4: So yeah, for me on, like I said, some more
• 56:58
  Speaker 4: continuity and consistency we can week out, especially with one
• 57:02
  Speaker 4: competition a week officially now and yeah, picking up those
• 57:06
  Speaker 4: those important points against the quote unquote weaker teams and said, yeah,
• 57:10
  Speaker 4: because they're gonna need them come come the end of
• 57:13
  Speaker 4: the stretch of this season.
• 57:16
  Speaker 1: And guys, I want to wrap it up with a
• 57:20
  Speaker 1: bit of a fun segment. SpongeBob movies coming out on Friday.
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: So the original one came out in two thousand and four,
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: so I didn't realize this is actually the fourth SpongeBob
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: movie coming on.
• 57:31
  Speaker 5: I wasn't second one when that movie came out.
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm surprised that it was two thousand and four.
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: It felt like, I guess you could say more recently.
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: I thought it was like a six was having a
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: eight movie. So I was a bit surprised to learn
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: that the original is from four. Tying it to Kaucho.
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: If you guys could bring back or resurrect one thing
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: from your team from two.
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: Thousand and four, what would it be?
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: As you were find I might have to might have
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: to sit this one out because two thousand and four,
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: thousand and five is when they got But if I
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: had to bring back one thing, right, we saw rightfull
• 58:06
  Speaker 1: a certain number ten.
• 58:08
  Speaker 2: That's another debate.
• 58:09
  Speaker 1: It's a certain number ten that I would love to
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: bring back from two thousand and four, although our current
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: number ten is does a fine job. He's a good player,
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: you guys have you guys know I criticized thee this
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: a bit.
• 58:20
  Speaker 2: He's not He's not the true game changer. He's definitely
• 58:23
  Speaker 2: not as close that ten.
• 58:25
  Speaker 4: Will never won't never tie the shoes of the ten
• 58:28
  Speaker 4: that you're talking about.
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: No, exactly, exactly exactly.
• 58:31
  Speaker 1: I mean the closest we had was Thebala and even then,
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: like he was better when he wore number twenty one
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: than when he wore number ten with you a. But
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: if I could bring back one thing from Youvey in
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: thousand and four, it definitely has to be Alex tell Peril.
• 58:46
  Speaker 4: I think like from me one, I would be like
• 58:48
  Speaker 4: the whole team, like the whole team is is what
• 58:52
  Speaker 4: you know? What you know when all our fans, you know,
• 58:56
  Speaker 4: in and around our age group and when they kind
• 58:59
  Speaker 4: of going to the fandom of of culture and of Milan,
• 59:02
  Speaker 4: you know, those kind of were the tail end years
• 59:05
  Speaker 4: of of some some winning culture, some winning teams. Unfortunately,
• 59:10
  Speaker 4: five Champions League didn't go as well. Oh three went
• 59:14
  Speaker 4: perfectly fine, but in and around those years.
• 59:17
  Speaker 3: I think it would just for.
• 59:18
  Speaker 4: A lot of us, it would just be the players, right,
• 59:20
  Speaker 4: it would just be those legends of the game that
• 59:22
  Speaker 4: we kind of fell in love with and and kind
• 59:25
  Speaker 4: of brought us, you know, some some joys as well.
• 59:30
  Speaker 3: You know, just the list goes on for the.
• 59:32
  Speaker 4: Players that were there, you know, the Maldinis of the
• 59:34
  Speaker 4: world and the pier woes is, the Didas like you know,
• 59:40
  Speaker 4: people in Zagishenko, we Costa like these players. The list
• 59:44
  Speaker 4: goes on and on. It's it's like it's you know,
• 59:46
  Speaker 4: just crazy to think about. But I don't know, like
• 59:53
  Speaker 4: Berlsconi spending spending the way he wanted and not have
• 59:58
  Speaker 4: to just always look about balancing the books and being
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 4: the green you know, he spent.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 3: He spent to win.
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 4: And I think we kind of obviously we're in a
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 4: different time, in a different era of of modern football,
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 4: and that's you know, understandable, and it is a business,
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 4: as we always like to say, and it's it's a shame,
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 4: uh that you know we kind of lose that that
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 4: that touch with how it was you know, all those
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 4: years ago.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 3: So but yeah, maybe a bit.
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 4: More of that reckless spending and kind of just spending
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 4: to win and wanting to win and and and the
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 4: importance of winning. Because I feel like a lot of
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 4: these players nowadays, you know, it's you know, the way
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 4: that the shirt is that you know, it doesn't do
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 4: as much to them anymore, and it was more of
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 4: an attachment to the jersey back then.
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: And yeah, I would just kind of.
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 4: Say, you know, all those general things for for me
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 4: one's sake, of course, because you know, the history is
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 4: is kind of where a lot of a lot of
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 4: the glory days were, so uh, I would love to
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 4: get back to that. Hopefully one day he one does.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 4: But if I would have to pick, you.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 3: Know, certain things from that time, it would be those
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 3: John you uh no, I'm joking.
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 2: I feel like for Napoli, that's when they were resurrected, right.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 7: Yeah, they lost, they lost in the playoffs that year
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 7: for promotion, but they did break the record for attendance
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 7: and stuff.
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 5: But I but I was looking at the like you
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 5: know what I was thinking about, like do I want
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 5: to go for a player for that one or not.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 5: I was looking at the roster. I guess who was
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 5: on Napoli that year. Ignacio was on that roster.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 3: You want.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 5: Yeah, look alike.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 7: Uh, but honestly for Napoly, I guess I don't know
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 7: what I would want to take back from the uh.
• 1:01:48
  Speaker 5: The hard City City s G.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 7: But like I'm looking at the coach, it was fucking Ventuita.
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 7: I'm like, no, thank you. I don't have to bring
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 7: back Va either. So maybe uh Cala probably the or
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 7: p one of the one of the strikers.
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 5: That's about it.
• 1:02:08
  Speaker 7: Really, this was even right before they got LAVETSI, so
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 7: I can't even go for him.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 7: And then in terms of Roma, you know, as much
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 7: as a killer roster they had for four or five,
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 7: you know what I want them to bring back if
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 7: they were able to bring that back. The mass the
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 7: logo jersey we're all about the kids, Yeah, with the
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 7: white thoughts on the side and everything, and it's the
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 7: it was the red with the orange and black like yeah.
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what was their model? Was It was that?
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 3: No? No, I don't know what it was.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 7: In the commercials you're thinking of zoom zoom from uh yeah,
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 7: was it zoom zoom?
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 5: Hold one was Zoom car company?
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: Zoom Zoom?
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 5: Yeah it was, it was zoom Zoom.
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: But it was.
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 5: Okay, like hold on can I let's see if I
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 5: can present for a quick second.
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 3: Well, we're gonna get.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 7: Hold on share screen. Its easy as with to monitors. Yes, okay,
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 7: here we go share boom.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 3: Like look at that.
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 2: I don't like the screens.
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 1: Sorry, I didn't know you guys could share share your
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 1: own screens on this.
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 3: Yeah, something new every day at the end of the
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 3: year we learned.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 7: Yeah, like this this this jersey for like, but it's
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 7: so nice, Like it was one of my favorite jerseys
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 7: and I remember being a kid, one of my core
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 7: memories is having it. Because it was Diodora that was
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 7: the sponsor for this jersey, the provider. It was near
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 7: impossible to find these jerseys in Montreal. It was new
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 7: because they barely shipped to North America. And I mean
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 7: for the younger viewers, right, like, this was a time
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 7: where you didn't have stuff like Amazon and what not
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 7: being able to ship stuff so like or like easy delivery.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 7: Even today it's still not easy to get ship delivered
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 7: to North America. So yeah, this is this is basically
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 7: what I would have enjoyed the kids that I would
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 7: like the kid I would like them for to bring
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 7: this backs, Like you could even have like like look, look,
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 7: this was the third jersey was orange, way one was white,
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 7: Like look, how gorgeous that?
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 5: Yeah?
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean, like those bringing back memories
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 4: just as a just as a like a non Roma fan.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 3: Even the black one was sick.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 5: Too, Yeah, like the why is the white one out loading?
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 7: But the white one was also very because essentially the
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 7: same thing, but like actually funny enough. There was the
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 7: top dye uh with John Travolta photo.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 3: Oh my god, the legendary one.
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I think he was wearing it.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, when they're hugging each other. Yeah, I love that. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 3: that was great, great times.
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 4: Honestly, I think the kids back then were just like
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 4: they don't make the kids.
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 3: Like they do back then anymore.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 4: Where I feel like just in general, like in Sidi
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 4: or just in just in general in world.
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 3: Football, I feel it's like it was. It was like,
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 3: I don't know, it just had a different aura. I
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 3: feel like with some of these jerseys.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, we'll see, we'll see what what kids we
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: get In twenty twenty six, it seems like it seems like,
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 1: you know, some brands are kind of going back kind
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: of like the Roman jerseys. Now they have very old
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 1: school feel like twenty years ago. It feels like even there,
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: it's a cycle.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 4: I even feel they brought back some of like their
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 4: retro ones too. I think, like, I don't know, I've
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 4: seen I'd seen some stuff like that. But anyways, it's
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 4: just a better time with the kids back then.
