0:55
And welcome to the Game for the
0:57
podcast. The times today were asking a
0:59
question which is baffling. Fans am philosophers
1:01
across the land. Are Chelsea
1:03
actually quite good? Will also find out which
1:06
of today's guess. went on a special bank
1:08
holiday road trip together. I once again be
1:10
begging someone to tell me that Manchester City
1:12
might just drop some points in the final
1:15
weeks of the season and will take a
1:17
look at the bottom of the Premier League
1:19
table and the top of the Championship to
1:21
adjoining mates on clock. For all of that,
1:24
we have Football writer and Sunday Times columnist
1:26
Alison wrote. A former footballer
1:28
who scored nineteen goals for island,
1:31
including doubles against Tunisia, Macedonia, Liechtenstein,
1:33
and Lithuania. It's. Tiny category Know.
1:36
And. Another former footballer who was
1:38
described by Scotland Under Twenty One coach
1:40
Raina Bahnhof as a solid left back.
1:43
There can play various roles in defense.
1:45
Bahnhof. Went on to say that
1:48
this player was tall, strong, and
1:50
very powerful. I think he
1:52
has a very big future at this
1:54
level. Gregor. Robertson. What?
1:57
Went wrong. either good
1:59
or to me I'm sitting here now, listen
2:01
to you take the piss. I'm
2:05
not taking the piss, it's a
2:07
wonderful highlights reel of your magnificent
2:09
story career. It
2:12
was nice to hear that from Bonoff, he won the World Cup at 22 either.
2:15
Tall, strong and very powerful. Nothing
2:18
about technique or talent or law or anything like
2:20
that. I think he had a bit of
2:22
a crush on you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, things like that.
2:24
Seriously. No, normally most managers you've got the kind of
2:26
like, you can play various roles across the defence. That's
2:28
that, you know, if you feel that a dating profile
2:31
when you're a football. If you had to
2:33
convert me to three and a half, I think that was probably the start
2:35
of it. Never mind. Anyway, we're nearly
2:37
there. The sixth of May, we've
2:40
nearly done it. I can't wait. Really in the
2:42
archives now. Anyway, to Anfield and another crazy game
2:44
for Jovan Klopp in his final season. And
2:46
we're going to come on to Liverpool and that
2:48
crazy game and two people who are there for
2:51
a very special reason. But I wanted to start
2:53
with Spurs, just to talk about some
2:55
football, you know, before we get into some of the nonsense of
2:57
the day. Alison and Tony, you were both there and I'm going
2:59
to get on to that reason later. But
3:02
I wanted to look
3:04
at the idea of Tottenham season and
3:06
the way it's going. And, you know, there's
3:09
always this suspicion with Ange that it might
3:11
end up this way. You
3:14
have these kind of press conferences after games
3:16
against Arsenal where he talks about how I'm not bothered about
3:18
the corners. I know I should be. And
3:21
then conceived against Chelsea from
3:23
corners and then get pulled apart by
3:25
Liverpool yesterday. Alison,
3:27
what did you make of watching this Tottenham
3:30
team yesterday? Did it look like a
3:32
team that were just tired? Are they
3:34
kind of finding the limitations or is it a
3:36
little bit more worrying than that? The
3:38
latter. It was interesting because I was
3:41
sat amongst all the
3:43
Merseyside reporters. You don't get
3:45
to see much of Spurs. Don't
3:48
see them as often as I do, for example. And
3:50
they were looking at me and going, what's that?
3:53
What are they doing? What the hell is that about? They
3:56
were completely unimpressed and felt
3:58
he was busted flat. and Poster
4:00
Cogloo. There was not that. I
4:03
think we convey it on
4:05
this podcast quite often. There's a
4:07
sort of almost a love for him
4:09
and his refreshing attitude and the way he
4:11
is uncompromising,
4:13
but none of that held
4:16
any sway with the
4:19
reporters on Merseyside. They just thought it was very
4:22
messy football, naive football,
4:26
no pattern to it, no
4:28
real energy. People
4:30
were shouting at things like, is
4:33
Emerson actually running away from the ball? What's he doing
4:35
that for? I think
4:37
in some ways it's quite refreshing to hear that
4:40
view of it because when you see a lot of
4:42
them and you hear
4:44
a lot of Ann talking, I think
4:47
you're lulled into this sense of, oh,
4:49
he's got a bigger picture. He
4:52
is a maestro and there are going to be dips
4:55
and he warned us there would be
4:57
dips and he wouldn't tweak
4:59
his methods. You take me as I
5:02
am and the football I want, but
5:04
there was an
5:07
advertisement of where he's going to
5:09
go to turn up at Anfield
5:11
and play in a vaguely
5:14
attacking sense some of the time, but
5:16
not bother defending very much at all.
5:19
Where did he think he was going? It wasn't
5:23
a cup game against someone from the two, it was
5:25
a very strange approach. Yes, you're right
5:27
Tom, there was a lack of energy, but energy,
5:31
I don't think it counts as an excuse at this
5:33
stage of the season. He's got most of his players
5:35
back, he did have injuries were a problem,
5:37
but every team's played the same number
5:40
of games. His team have played less than anyone else because
5:42
they were not in Europe, so it's
5:44
not an excuse that they're a
5:46
bit tired. It looked like a very
5:48
flawed experiment that might be coming to an end.
5:51
Interesting. Tony, what about you? What did you make of
5:53
Tottenham? Well, I watched
5:55
them at Chelsea as well on Thursday night, I was
5:57
at the game at the bridge. and
6:01
Alison used the word they're flawed and
6:04
it's quite easy to be lazy in this
6:06
game and be just generally go over there
6:08
busted flush you know they've been found out
6:10
lazy explanations I
6:13
saw an astonishing amount of play that
6:15
was just really
6:18
weird to watch positions of players
6:21
that I don't like
6:23
take Emerson Royale and it's not having a go against
6:25
him here he's a right back that plays left back
6:28
for Spurs he's
6:31
on a one-on-one he's been left with Mo Salah
6:33
but he keeps tucking in higher up the pitch
6:35
which leaves Mo Salah quite free a
6:37
lot of the time but
6:39
also whoever
6:41
was playing left wing because it changed
6:43
you obviously it was Son in the
6:46
second half and and in the first
6:48
half of his Brandon Johnson and he
6:50
came up against Trent as well but
6:52
they didn't help Emerson
6:55
Royale when they didn't have the ball so
6:57
Emerson Royale was faced with Trent in front
6:59
of him and Salah on the outside and
7:01
then running in behind him and by the
7:03
way Harvey Elliott was running in the hole
7:05
just between the two center halves and Emerson
7:07
Royale was literally three against one I'm thinking
7:10
yeah he might be having a difficult time
7:12
and he might not be a right back
7:14
but better this job that he's getting
7:17
Liverpool attack was right side
7:19
right side right side every
7:21
time and not once did I
7:23
see pasta coglio change it
7:25
to give him some help yeah and people
7:27
might point the finger at his performance he
7:29
didn't play well but I thought boy
7:32
you've got some job you got Trent who's
7:34
a very gifted player on the ball as
7:36
well and you give him freedom and he
7:38
can get his head up you're in trouble
7:40
and that was the thing I couldn't get
7:42
because the flawed idea is you're letting players
7:45
of the highest technique lift their
7:47
head up and find a pass yeah in their
7:49
system Greg Robertson founding member of
7:51
the and pasta coglio will not change fan
7:54
club what Was your response to
7:56
those bits of analysis from your colleagues? The
7:58
thing that struck me over this. We.
8:00
Can this you know that those care of
8:02
again ramped up a new questions of a
8:05
suture which I think I wildly. Over.
8:07
The top and premature am.
8:10
As. The. Week. We.
8:13
Can have we could say someone
8:15
for been on an absolute dogmatists.
8:18
and then because i someone like get it in
8:20
hug from. Been. A pragmatist
8:22
and of a know i'm an identity
8:24
was his idea was identities are clearly
8:26
there's a middle ground, but. As
8:29
post hope this isn't interested in the middle
8:31
don't and I think we just have to
8:33
accept that. Like. I don't think there's
8:35
any point in criticism for it because this is
8:38
the way it's gonna be a think what he
8:40
he ultimately will see as we need to. Get.
8:43
The point where we can do a better and
8:45
I I completely agree with a lot of things
8:47
you either see and than agree. That's. Constantly.
8:49
Invite in their opposition. but the clear theme
8:52
like Liverpool to press year and then and
8:54
your own third unlikely over and can of.
8:56
I mean it is like an anathema to
8:58
me watching as as as a flew back
9:01
and assess so many tell you occasional Cena
9:03
hosts play all the all powerful. we're excited
9:05
to do that. Trying to do that at
9:08
the only only fully kinda V composer I
9:10
could draw for Michael Cuddyer this when I
9:12
was just started not in for us. we
9:14
pull hot was amount of meals. play the
9:17
Diamonds by an Uncle Buck and who Bucks.
9:19
Will only bourgeois for the woods and everything
9:21
the goalkeeper are more to could go the
9:23
both. Everyone, every
9:26
opponent knew. That. He was
9:28
gonna ping at the the the right back of the less.
9:30
Like everyone knew it. And. We still did it.
9:32
So. Every time the mole was com it's saw it
9:34
on to my chest. The very good at it that
9:36
was at least one player goes and we don't like.
9:39
As normal for starts then like already
9:42
challenging before so this is what they're
9:44
dealing with overtaken by against Liverpool and
9:46
against a team like the are so
9:48
dynamic in an ill the their. Identity.
9:51
As basics and they still didn't like
9:53
at. other was as
9:55
the lead my a chemist the still something about me
9:58
admires it and and the think I
10:00
think we can easily forget
10:03
too quickly and easily what has
10:05
happened beforehand. And we know there's
10:07
that stat about the points all
10:10
from the first 35 games, 60 points, Klopp's
10:12
was 58, Arteta's was 50. Let's
10:16
not forget everything that made Spurs so exciting
10:18
and sort of new because of
10:20
the last four games. Well that's what I was going to
10:22
come onto is this idea and links to what Tony's point
10:24
about Emerson, Real and those managers, Greco. Is it the case
10:26
that this is the start of a
10:28
potentially long journey and that he needs the
10:30
time and potentially the investment to change the
10:33
players? And so
10:35
that was going to come onto an idea that watching
10:37
yesterday's game, is this the ultimate idea of that
10:40
this Tottenham team only has a certain
10:42
number of players who will be Anj post
10:44
a cognitive players long term, Tony? Yeah, to
10:47
a degree, but I can't help thinking and
10:50
now we're both there together watching it. That
10:53
game was so close to being six, seven.
10:55
There was chances galore. We're not talking about
10:58
Liverpool taking four opportunities in a game.
11:00
We're talking about Liverpool missing 10 great
11:02
chances. Really? Which there was
11:04
that wasn't it? Absolutely. It was
11:06
like it was literally one attack after another. And
11:08
Liverpool's finishing wasn't particularly great. I
11:11
don't know how you can think, even
11:14
with the highest technical players, that you can
11:16
be so brave in a style. So you
11:18
don't think even if he had Manchester City
11:20
squad and he was playing that way, it
11:22
still would have Liverpool still would have had
11:24
a load of chances. Well, I still think it's disjointed and
11:26
quite disorganized. It's you know, Manchester City is an
11:29
attack. They've always had an attack minded team. So
11:31
have Liverpool, you know, and I've seen attack minded
11:33
size like Manchester United at their very best and
11:35
I was on Vengas Arsenal, but
11:38
they were still organized in the way
11:40
they played. That wasn't
11:43
I'm watching yesterday. I'm thinking, wow,
11:45
this team are giving chances between
11:47
10 and 15 every game of
11:49
you're just doing data on numbers
11:51
of chances. You cannot win football
11:53
matches. No team
11:56
is conceded, seeded possession more
11:58
than Their own third and first. they've done it again
12:01
and have given up seven goals of as as a
12:03
result are thrown. His antics probably be more. This
12:07
the past month rather see a thing is gonna
12:09
what they is going to get a point we
12:11
he does it better I always and think is
12:13
worth asking colleagues who support these teams So the
12:15
views before coming on show. My colleague Nicky's on
12:18
the had seen desk as a spare season ticket
12:20
and he suggested about this kind of that players
12:22
know being good enough That is an interesting conversation
12:24
we had around some human in this team said
12:26
Pasta Coakley. In. Relation to this I don't
12:29
like of my boy echoes much. Wheels of the
12:31
Hook repairs are good enough to do this. Okay,
12:33
so I asking them to death. Yeah, so why
12:35
you ask him to get my second point is
12:37
that he said most gifted technical pie. Madison.
12:40
At the same. Since. The pair
12:42
that can keep the ball better than anybody else
12:44
is no in the starting line on the game
12:47
changed in the last core of the game because
12:49
nipples, substitutions or backboard, it's up and impose them.
12:51
Yeah well that was next point as well as
12:53
that. They look much better when Rich House and
12:55
came on because they had a focal point in
12:57
attack on a number nine and that saddam when
12:59
on the Nes on but some maybe as a
13:02
wide player who needs to stay wide in this
13:04
post could be system doesn't quite fit. I mean
13:06
it's of Isabel Com and he wasn't suggesting always
13:08
time to sell Sunken Mint. Bet this that it's
13:10
one of the challenges that boss. Congolese Gov.
13:12
Greg. Yet he said that
13:14
he's not going to be shy about moving on.
13:17
Like. Players as he has to discuss for the betterment
13:19
of the. Theme. Of the whole the
13:21
afghan of years Allison said on. Play
13:24
tumultuous season is it only real recognize
13:26
strike as soon as was. That was
13:28
all decent. Pair of the left am.
13:32
Glad. He's
13:34
got at Tottenham supporting friend he would
13:36
like some to move on. He wouldn't
13:38
like songs, move on he just thinks as an
13:40
interesting conversation to be had around that on a
13:42
whim. Of way of saying I think. The know, he
13:44
doesn't. He doesn't. He's got such data. I promised me
13:47
that unless. Something's think on the ice and. Some
13:49
miss the didn't say that boats
13:51
just whether there's a point about
13:53
Scotland's close, not being good enough
13:56
to play this this. I
13:58
I'm not good enough for the full backs. right?
14:00
Yeah I think the idea of he needs
14:02
his soul and poor and and the system
14:04
the full bucks and the landed on one
14:06
with the doggies been brilliant. They do portal
14:08
as exceeded. Sell. The my expectations
14:10
like. By. A million percent or stories
14:13
awful. Ah, season A thought that to move
14:15
more than be eating the sale for the
14:17
team. you mean you don't have to defend
14:19
too much and is is excellent. Stephen Mcneil,
14:21
a. Bit of the
14:23
needs. Competition. Certainly.
14:26
Cover but competition for full bus because what
14:28
was was behind them as nowhere near good
14:30
enough like Royal in the right in the
14:32
remained on the left is nowhere near good
14:34
enough to play in the not many people
14:37
will be. Us. To play it
14:39
like as a number ten at things and
14:41
be the full back and like Vincent de
14:43
Be the winner as as ridiculous some the
14:45
so white husky of a few bucks and
14:48
the seems to sell a house and again
14:50
behind romero and been then as a massive
14:52
drop off so they need to back up
14:54
Ah Mallika the rest the team as thought
14:56
saw has the the been players who. For
15:00
season season after season for Spurs have shown
15:02
glimpses are played well for and patches and
15:04
of not sustain the and but they were
15:06
probably seen about that again. Specimens start the
15:08
season outstandingly and then you know he had
15:10
he was sent off and suspended than any
15:12
was away and he says not been anywhere
15:14
near that Sars dropped off of as well
15:16
as that. A really good stuff. So the
15:18
question marks about their surf. You to
15:20
billie through the campaign but there's Duke of Vivid
15:23
living. Great place on the sees us have been
15:25
to choose a really good with a little things.
15:27
I think it's like the debts. More
15:29
than anything that they really need to. Because
15:32
when when they've lost theirs, when the last,
15:34
Remember when the last Madison as to steal
15:36
this season. right? Let's gowns little
15:38
drawer else in return and of a hissy
15:40
fit about Tottenham right to question Cause that's
15:42
what we rarely wanna talk about. Forget Coogan
15:44
and Bride and it's all about a rail
15:46
road trip that happened this weekend. Category know
15:48
and road. drove all
15:51
the way up there together friends
15:53
didn't share the driving for a
15:55
slide over and ago and were
15:57
us address the digs have begun
15:59
at us Yeah, even your body language
16:01
is the one you're like sat too far apart
16:03
I actually sort of sat you on opposite sides
16:05
of the desk shouldn't I now? Alison
16:07
or Tony would you like to tell us the reason for this
16:10
feature before we then get into
16:12
the details? Why why were you both going
16:14
to Liverpool together for a feature? What's the
16:16
idea behind this? Actually,
16:19
so there's there's the fact that Tony
16:23
Pested the desk every 10 minutes for the
16:25
past I can confirm that Since
16:27
his clock and that's his retirement Tony
16:30
felt that he'd just love to go to
16:33
Anfield before it was the end of the clock era
16:36
And if possible to get in the press conference and ask
16:38
him a question Because once
16:40
he's gone he's gone. You won't get a chance to do that and
16:43
it made sense for Tony
16:46
I together were both Liverpool fans and We
16:50
found out and you used to get on really
16:52
well before the road People we always got on
16:54
incredibly well and always and and
16:58
Our first ever game and feel we
17:00
didn't go together but was the
17:02
same game It was the 7-0 in 1978 against Spurs And
17:06
so the game that we get a pass for for Tony
17:08
to come as well as you know We get an extra
17:10
pass was against Spurs. So
17:12
we were both convinced it was going to be 7-0 And
17:19
Weirdly our favorite Liverpool goal is
17:21
the same Liverpool goal Which was
17:23
the seventh goal scored in that
17:25
7-0 in 1978 school by Terry
17:27
McDermott and we spent we spent
17:30
from 9 30 till Quarter
17:34
to midnight I'm
17:37
13 the morning till quarter to midnight
17:39
yesterday in each other's company and it
17:41
was only when I bumped into Tony
17:43
on the Escalator coming
17:45
out of the tube this morning
17:47
that Tony says oh I'll
17:50
start in front of Terry McDermott and had a nice
17:52
chat with him. He didn't even think
17:55
to mention it I'm going to
17:57
be writing this up for the paper. He didn't
17:59
even mention it at the time or
18:01
in the car ride afterwards. Oh my
18:03
God! And you'd driven him all the
18:05
way there in that because there were no trains. So
18:08
forget the football. What I want to know
18:10
is what were the snacks? Snacks? Good chat
18:12
about music apparently? Politics? Okay,
18:15
the test of whether it was a successful road trip
18:17
or not. Oh God, I'm worried for Tony here. Tony
18:20
Cascuino, can you guess what
18:22
album I played when I was washing my
18:24
hair this morning? What?
18:27
Talking book or In the Visions? Which
18:29
one Tony? Probably In the Vision. Yeah, well
18:31
done. It was a successful road trip. And that
18:33
is, I didn't know. Thank God, honestly I was tenting there. Me and
18:35
Greg were like, oh my God, the whole podcast is going to fall
18:37
down here. But Tony, you had a lovely day by the time. Yeah,
18:44
we had good fun. It
18:48
was an idea that I put to James,
18:51
his sports editor, and I
18:53
just wanted to see Klopp and I knew I was
18:56
going to get a question and I was battling away,
18:58
which I'm only getting one shot at this, one
19:01
bullet. And I kept thinking, well,
19:03
I've got to watch the game because it
19:05
may be game related. But I wanted a
19:07
deeper question, which was more about
19:10
what does it take to be the Liverpool manager?
19:13
And he gave a really long reply to that,
19:15
which was really interesting because I was thinking, I'm
19:17
going to ask this question. He might just go
19:20
one word answer or two or three words and that
19:23
would be it. But he didn't, did he Al? No,
19:25
it was a lovely answer. Yeah, he went quite
19:27
in depth about Liverpool. But
19:31
yeah, look, it's
19:34
strange you're going to, what
19:36
I clearly didn't want is a piece that
19:38
I'm gushing about everything about Liverpool. What a
19:40
wonderful place it is, even though I think
19:42
that. Yeah, yeah, we have enough of that.
19:45
Yeah, you know, so I wanted to go
19:47
there, but also give a perspective from being
19:49
that fan that went in 78. Yeah,
19:51
the same game as Al said, talking about
19:54
the car journey was hilarious, really, because
19:57
I kept bringing up different subjects, thinking.
20:00
political. We went music
20:02
didn't we? I think we had a food
20:04
one as well. Would you say you're better
20:06
pals now or than before the road trip?
20:09
Because you've known each other a long time
20:11
and worked together but you know. I
20:13
got a length of a road trip. I can't
20:15
believe I got that out of my mouth. No
20:19
it's easy without, it's easy to
20:21
do stuff because she's incredibly
20:24
knowledgeable on many subjects. Sometimes I get
20:26
a bit embarrassed because I feel like
20:28
she's more clever than me. Which
20:31
everybody probably does anyway. It's a good
20:33
problem. Well you can find
20:36
out Jurgen Klopp's exact answer to Tony Cascarino's question when Alison
20:38
writes up this feature which you can read on the Times
20:40
website and in the paper this week. But
20:42
actually talking about the football, one play I wanted to
20:44
talk about which Tony you briefly mentioned, Harvey Elliott. It
20:47
feels like to me it's been a very good
20:49
season with him but slightly unnecessarily
20:52
stuttering I would say. It's
20:54
like to me whenever I watch him this guy looks the
20:56
absolute real deal. Why isn't
20:58
he in the team every week? Most of them. You
21:01
don't think they can play together? Well it
21:03
can play, you know Klopp has used him
21:05
slightly different positions but generally he loves that
21:07
right side. You know he loves to come
21:09
off that side and when we cut him
21:12
side with the ball like he did for
21:14
the goal yesterday. I think he's been
21:16
the one that's staying that figure for Liverpool this year because
21:19
you know he started the season in and out and
21:21
when he was called upon he'd come off the bench.
21:24
And he'd do something and I remember him coming on the
21:26
Crystal Palace and changing the game, the outcome by his
21:29
performance. A lot
21:31
of other talk was about other youngsters and Harvey
21:33
Elliott doesn't feel young does he even though he still
21:35
is. So I
21:38
thought it was a really good afternoon for him. Do you
21:40
know what I really love about him? He always wants the
21:42
ball. He reminds me of Ray
21:44
Houghton who I played with in the Republic of Ireland.
21:46
I've said that before. Did you bump into him yesterday
21:48
and forget about him? No, Ray wasn't there. He's
21:52
going to simmer that one I think. But he always
21:54
wants it. You know you see that player that just
21:56
goes give me it all the time. Even if he,
21:58
you know, could you get the grumbag? at any
22:00
stadium didn't you, sometimes a misplaced bar, he
22:03
always wants the ball. And
22:05
he's not the biggest, but he's fiery, he's got
22:07
a lot of energy, I just
22:09
really like him and I'm hoping
22:11
along the way that he
22:14
doesn't become that still squads
22:16
player because there's a time at Liverpool where
22:18
you've got when you're gonna be number one,
22:21
you know we don't know what's gonna
22:23
happen with Mo Salah, that's still up in the air, but
22:25
I still think there's a big future for him at Liverpool.
22:28
Yeah Alison what do you make of Harvey
22:30
Elliott, as Tony said still only 21, you
22:32
know not really been talked about in the England contention, goodness
22:34
knows we've got a lot of players with left foots who like
22:36
playing on the right side of the pitch, but he
22:38
does to me look like a future Liverpool star.
22:41
Yeah I think he's
22:44
looked like that way since more or
22:46
less he joined Liverpool from Fulham, he's
22:49
and I'm amazed people think there
22:51
might be a problem with him and Salah on the
22:53
pitch at the same time because I think there was
22:55
a period when they've both been together, they
22:58
had such great chemistry and understanding. When
23:00
he came off the bench they often
23:02
linked up for it. Yeah I thought
23:04
they made each other look better players and
23:06
when he's talking about Mo Salah looking better
23:08
then something's going well, yeah
23:13
he's, what he's like I think
23:15
it's probably to do with his youth but he brings
23:19
a sort of different sort of irrepressible sort
23:21
of energy to the team and
23:23
he looks young and
23:25
he looks like he's still trying to
23:27
impress and I don't know if you can
23:29
carry on being like that as you get older and
23:31
more established whether you lose that because that's the joy
23:33
of him is that he looks like I'm
23:37
just really happy to be here because he's far
23:39
there's a Liverpool fan and it
23:41
feels like it really means something to
23:43
him to create a connection with the fans
23:45
and he's as selfish
23:48
as he needs to be when it's the right thing
23:50
to be and also incredibly unselfish when it's the right
23:52
thing to be so I don't I
23:54
don't think he's made a special case from
23:56
this game although I think I just looking
23:59
at Paul Joyce's The magical for it.
24:01
He gave him nine up sandwiches. Big.
24:03
Mark who am. I.
24:05
Think I think he's looked like he. Can. Work for
24:08
Liverpool almost almost from the start
24:10
and. I
24:12
I. I wouldn't have any problem
24:14
always doubting him and sounders get ever. And
24:16
I'm A. I'm assuming Salah will stay. Next
24:19
nixie. It.
24:21
Is we start name family games He pretty
24:23
surprising nice about stuff the counterpoint I'm going
24:25
on. that's what is the off the bench
24:27
be been a real him been partly of
24:29
the bends or can sometimes be hundred sticks
24:31
you like will vote would go harvey to
24:33
through on any in we're come on your
24:35
school go in there. That some players a
24:37
better at doing that say. You don't want to
24:40
be that those relative ease up there but fit it it.
24:42
Meet what it means is on the plus side of
24:44
thing someone to come to a venti you don't need
24:46
very long to climb ties to the match your then
24:48
it hit the ground running When you come on. Which.
24:51
Makes you more valuable Does mean that you're bad at
24:53
when you start the game. It just means. You.
24:56
Eaten rely on him to change things and he. Comes.
24:58
As a lot but we can agree the
25:00
about bush and to because he he please
25:02
in the advancements you drool to basically. Diminutive.
25:06
In the north compare to simulate
25:08
suppose lies a real awfully in
25:10
a little. Is always been engine
25:12
room for Liverpool laws that am not a if
25:14
if not you can't do any part that say
25:16
to the job or just other know a little
25:19
bit different but just I think is or think
25:21
it's been one of his peers absolutely all season
25:23
so I am premise for him. assists the boat
25:25
do that regularly enough to submit a police and
25:27
the team and that's a big challenge or cobbler
25:29
Liverpool too soon for the era squatters you. And.
25:33
You're in the risk of a thing. This hair
25:35
this type of the appearing it's it's it's f
25:37
one. As you said when applies only started nine
25:39
games even though he would when he has done
25:41
and and com of the made. An
25:44
impact. On
25:46
that basis alone will that when kept Liverpool
25:49
mathematically still in the title race, but it
25:51
will come down to Arsenal and much to
25:53
see after they both six of comfortable home
25:55
wins against Bomb With Animals respectively. Gregor you
25:58
were at the Emirates for this game. What?
26:00
Was the throat phrase. Years before we started recording.
26:03
Got. Their bloody goes Yes, yes,
26:05
really deep insight. They're. Not
26:09
around to put or that enter into an
26:11
eight hundred words on gun oh yes it
26:13
will have in it's just a think as
26:15
everyone does he says diskin' it on to
26:17
that The nice because my goodness these influence
26:19
us It as a. Booth. The Question
26:22
rather than the Sally Hansen and The
26:24
Beast, but as there are plans more
26:26
influential. In the premier league to slip. By
26:29
the I mean on the players around them.
26:32
On. This of energy and the stadium
26:34
on the opposition. Are
26:36
on performances on results just as influences. Drive
26:38
is force of personality and know is go
26:41
contributions other one of the ago and and
26:43
system less potent esteem for the season. He
26:45
could have had more as well. he had
26:47
always get a volley and the forty off
26:50
of the set up a got will get
26:52
we the edge in the first after not
26:54
the outstanding likely suffocate them and that's others
26:56
thing about when race please in this more
26:58
advanced rule what he's done last four games
27:01
like unless they did number eight. You
27:04
think going to loosen something about his self protection
27:06
front? The but for but no but the other
27:08
say the that. Get. A game
27:10
that coat oppressing ability as a things would
27:12
he to steal the bowl but this almost
27:14
immediately after has been turned over a the
27:16
data started sick enough for a really good
27:19
chance for soccer and and then he saw
27:21
those long boston runs were in office for
27:23
the this is the Source up and then
27:25
and ninety seventh minute them with people are
27:27
like. Receptor taken
27:29
every effort to so that sit around in a the
27:31
as of yet is the A the is of them
27:33
will come back to deck and right in just a
27:35
second The Anthem and City. Turns out they got some
27:37
bloke up front called Harlan Do can score some goals.
27:39
That we've forgotten about of lights. At Tony, you wanted
27:42
to talk about one of his goals in particular. The
27:44
other heather yes, the leap category
27:46
know? ask wow that I prided
27:48
myself on that topic. Go. On.
27:52
The night I went into meltdown mode
27:54
did wake and I'm idea, well actually
27:57
had a guy everybody even could even
27:59
considered. The he lacked certain abilities
28:01
to be a premier league top plow. I've
28:03
lived with her for a referee school he
28:05
fails. Go I just thought I'd I find
28:07
it ludicrous the anyone with the not the
28:09
guy is a physical place for like goal
28:12
is one that we don't have. A your
28:14
by supply is ahead with the far post.
28:16
This attacking the bone is literally has it
28:18
set back to the other corner and it's
28:20
someone your to hold and coats when you're
28:22
young. does that when the boys coming from
28:24
the right side you attack it utah and
28:27
bury in a the corner these come from
28:29
You miss tell us. He leaves the goalkeeper
28:31
no chance. that's the go. I laughed
28:33
because it's one that very few keepers
28:35
used. You see the not many head
28:37
as you say the ball go him
28:39
before the keepers. Most most keepers can
28:41
really get too ahead because he does
28:43
hideous powerful. They had to the that
28:45
britain which means the caped get somewhere
28:47
near and the leap as well. Easily
28:49
be like Cristiano Ronaldo when it's it's
28:51
not as high but there was many
28:53
pictures in the papers yesterday of the
28:55
he's he's legs remember that he's got
28:57
get legs which of summers six foot
28:59
four six foot five get in nearly
29:02
to the waste of the of the
29:04
the defender and that is really a
29:06
hell of a late because he's carrying
29:08
on to get himself up. With
29:11
me. In. Our even
29:13
in my prime is harder for me
29:15
to get that really high distance. because
29:17
I'm on ebay, I got to get
29:19
myself off the ground. Yeah well, Holland's
29:21
to maim as the it's. I
29:24
don't miss. Sad because don't do that as
29:26
often as I was a light. Whether it's
29:28
had someone to pull the the same around
29:31
and stem faded that's okay facts and but
29:33
that was just a joy that put in
29:35
a box of go guys my quite good
29:37
at scoring who knows it never catch on
29:39
at at have stopped. Talking about Arsenal.
29:41
dangling. Noom coming back switches what harling kill
29:44
by against the say whether I want my point
29:46
on that one after his was her own has
29:48
hurling Harland outshone as cell phone and who was
29:50
of course name for the Rise player of the
29:52
years so I want to talk about both months
29:55
to city and Arsenal in relations plaza de Se
29:57
what did there are thousands of a conceal talk
29:59
about. You wanna say what would
30:01
you do to attorney a cast korean
30:03
and what did you do on a road
30:06
trip or five months ago so liverpool when
30:08
for to and system guy been amazed
30:10
that was his i want some way the
30:12
Sonia was his white looking back at me.
30:16
For five to. Five
30:19
meds now seen as they might be seven. Something
30:21
humorous. My joining for friends and will be spoiled
30:23
rotten. Anyway, I'd like to just briefly talk about
30:26
who you're plays of the would be as the
30:28
cellphone one that would cause I think. Gregor
30:30
going back to awesome and destined rice. You're
30:32
gonna make a change. He said rhodri a
30:35
few weeks ago. As the
30:37
league's annoying are going agree with me but even
30:39
if he had a on the fence the most
30:41
but you do less no right or wrong answer
30:43
in this but I think as and other see
30:45
either you know what? Like that.
30:47
Are more talent as playoffs think is are often
30:50
when we talk we have these conversations. Talent.
30:54
A ways influence and impact on
30:56
games. you know I mean the
30:58
did poorly so food and is
31:00
all it wonderful can have enough
31:02
silky skills and thoughts isn't and
31:04
some great goals that has a
31:06
million little with easy on the
31:08
I will last. You.
31:12
Know I mean those really in the eye and that
31:14
they often this is up. Those are the goal scorer
31:16
but. That. Does that another other
31:18
players who exec. Just
31:20
as much or more influence and Declan races
31:22
one of those people as partners. As tough
31:25
as nails and yet. And
31:27
you're cool in the and on
31:30
their Tnt estimates of compare them
31:32
as performance to like Steven Gerrard,
31:34
Roy Keane at Patrick Vieira an
31:36
ill. Ethical In a season that
31:38
would seem that London can have come until.
31:41
Then. also doesn't say about that this truth
31:43
in that he could be could become that
31:45
kind of figure for arsenal i honestly believe
31:48
that this is for season after moving from
31:50
one hundred million quid and now looking kind
31:52
of like a bargain will this thing as
31:54
they sing declan race we go i'm half
31:56
price us a new song and at emory
31:58
so let it snow and ice ice I
32:00
said it's more like they got two for
32:02
the price of one because you know he's at
32:04
outstanding number six and he's showing himself
32:06
to be an outstanding number eight now. So what you're saying
32:08
is a few weeks ago you said Roger and I said
32:10
Declan Reisen now you're saying you agree with me that's what
32:12
you're saying. Okay Tom I'm saying that yeah. That's great. Tony
32:15
Cascurino you're not for changing. Oli Watkins still your player
32:18
of the year? Yeah. Absolutely.
32:20
I mean I could just say that look an
32:23
opinion of a different candidates there's always
32:25
going to be three or four choices
32:28
at least. Yeah yeah yeah. Just one
32:30
outstanding player. Yeah. I mean that's happened
32:32
before with people like De Bruyne where
32:34
you know his season was incredible. I
32:36
mean I just on deck on rise
32:38
it's so much more interesting watching him
32:40
play alongside Pate who's coming to the
32:42
team after a long injury just allows
32:45
him to go. You know I was
32:47
at the game as well as I said
32:49
and watching Roy and by the
32:51
way and me and Greg were talking on
32:53
fair about this that you know watching
32:55
Declan Reisen actually played the game but when you're watching
32:57
him live you're actually seeing him getting the crowd up
32:59
as he's playing. He's actually waving the players as the
33:02
game's going on and that was quite
33:04
funny because you know he's really
33:06
driving a lot. Probably part of
33:08
that improved Emirates atmosphere that we talked about so much. Yeah
33:10
it's much different. I mean the Emirates is a different place
33:12
to go. That also
33:15
incorporates Arsenal and my point I
33:17
would say and I've
33:19
seen quite a lot of Arsenal of late they
33:21
are the team to beat next year without a doubt. It's
33:24
going to I always say stick it. I've
33:27
always said stick it with the team this year. Arsenal are going to be the
33:29
team to beat next year. You can
33:31
see the age profile as well. The players are like 22, 23,
33:33
25, 26. They're
33:37
in the in the plane or entering the
33:39
plane. They've got a good like the squad has
33:41
got maybe three or four years of
33:43
development as it is now. Clip
33:45
that up Neil. Gregor Robson not the man who hates
33:48
predictions already saying that Arsenal are going to win the
33:50
league next year. Alison Rudd you voted
33:52
for an Arsenal player for your player of the year. You
33:54
know, recency bias is making this
33:56
room bloated. It's like Martin Eredigard
33:59
because overall. Overall
34:01
he is the player of the season.
34:03
It's not player of the weekend
34:05
is it? Honestly Tony what on
34:08
earth happened seriously? The safeguard didn't
34:10
turn up until September of the
34:12
month. Mine's been
34:14
down over the whole of the season. To be fair
34:16
you picked Ollie Watkins about three seasons ago for the
34:18
player of the season. Alison please
34:20
continue. Can you please sorry Alison? No
34:23
I... She's got the door on edge now. I
34:26
like Erdegaard because of the
34:29
variety of things he brings. So I
34:32
think he's a supremely gifted player and
34:35
his... The vision
34:37
he has, his passing abilities, accuracy is
34:40
allied to other qualities. So
34:43
he's very unselfish, he's always
34:45
providing an outball. He's
34:47
a very supportive captain of
34:49
the team. I know you mentioned that Declan
34:52
Rice is the one that sort of connects
34:54
with the crowd. But he does that too.
34:56
He does also go to the
34:58
crowd and ask them to listen noise. I
35:01
think he's got everything you could want.
35:03
I think he's versatile as well. And
35:06
sometimes there are matches where the
35:08
beautiful element of his
35:10
game can't be expressed
35:13
or isn't necessary. And he will do the grafting
35:15
as well. So I think he's the complete
35:18
footballer. And a lot
35:20
of what he does I think is underrated. And Gregor
35:22
just said, oh he didn't turn up till when? When
35:24
did you think he turned up? September?
35:28
Yeah, at least September. That's because he wasn't
35:30
not turning up. He was just...
35:33
Well we were all talking about it. He
35:36
was doing his... still doing his thing.
35:38
We were asking where Arsenal's kind of
35:40
fluent rhythm was and he was
35:42
as... Well if he wasn't quite at it
35:44
that just proves how important he is. Don't
35:46
poke the bear Gregor. I'm
35:50
happy with that enough. No,
35:52
you haven't said the key point about the
35:54
Arsenal game. Which is
35:57
why an earth bar exists if you don't look
35:59
at it. No, no, no, this
36:01
is an important one because Kai
36:03
Havarts is running and then he suddenly
36:05
decides the way you run is that
36:07
you drag your toes along
36:10
the ground so that you fall over
36:12
the absolute clearest dive of
36:14
the century. VAR looks at it
36:17
and doesn't and wimps out and
36:19
therefore utterly makes it
36:21
a useless concept. My blood was
36:23
boiling watching this. I
36:26
said it at the moment, I was sitting beside Paul Rowan who
36:28
was writing the Sunday Times match for,
36:30
I was like that's a dive and
36:32
then we saw it on the screen and I also
36:34
said the referee blew the whistle and
36:37
he still didn't know what he was going to do. He
36:40
blew the whistle and then he
36:42
took three seconds maybe and you could
36:44
see him wavering. So he was between giving
36:47
a foul for a dive
36:49
to Bournemouth or giving
36:51
a penalty and he went with a penalty
36:53
and because of that, VAR couldn't, because then
36:55
he would say there's not a clear and
36:58
obvious error. Well it was a clear and
37:00
obvious error. He touched him so by the
37:02
nonsense of the
37:05
protocol, I completely
37:07
agree with you but by the nonsense idea
37:09
of the protocol, there's enough
37:11
to say that okay you
37:13
can see why he gave a penalty. That's
37:16
the warped state of VAR. Lucky you didn't
37:18
go in that car yesterday. At least we
37:20
know what Alison Rudd's really upset about now
37:22
and it's not Tony Cascarino. Hang on, hang
37:24
on, it was the second one though because
37:27
Raya came out and like punched, it's
37:30
the minimal, minimal thing but because he
37:32
gave it on the pitch. I watched
37:34
that one and thought oh Greg is
37:36
going to come on and say that's
37:38
the same as the Villa Chelsea one, the
37:40
nudge. It's a foul, it's a
37:42
foul as he said okay. No, no he didn't
37:44
touch him. No because he still got
37:46
the punch on the wall. It's very different. That
37:48
was like an isolated incident that led directly to
37:51
a goal. He still got the punch on the
37:53
ball and he's not strong
37:55
enough generally speaking. The littling was whole
37:57
to the ground. Yeah but again it's
37:59
because the referee gave it on the
38:01
pitch that VAR is essentially pointless. So
38:03
what is the yesterday thoughts or points? I'm
38:05
glad we're all in agreement on that. Everyone talks
38:07
about this need, sorry, that really annoyed me. Everyone
38:11
talks about this need just to remember
38:13
the clear and obvious. It doesn't exist.
38:16
It doesn't exist. It will never exist. We're
38:18
carrying this till the end, Tony and you. Alison's
38:21
co-rupted Gregor now. He did a bad move. Me
38:24
and you to the end. Anyway, if you're a
38:26
football fan who presumably agrees with Gregor and Alison,
38:28
let's hope you do about VAR or maybe you
38:30
want to offer your views on who should be
38:32
player of the year. And
38:35
for now stick with us. We're going to

and welcome back to the Game Football Podcast.
40:24
From The Times, I'm Tom Clark, and today
40:27
I'm joined by Alison Rood, Tony Cascarino, and
40:29
Gregor Robson. Now, after an impressive comeback against
40:31
Aston Villa and two comprehensive wins against Spurs
40:33
and West Ham, Chelsea are up
40:36
to seventh and could still, technically, maybe,
40:38
who knows, finish fifth. So,
40:41
Gregor Robson, having slagged them off all season, it's
40:43
now time for you to change your mind on
40:45
this as well, right? Chelsea, suddenly look quite good,
40:47
don't they? Yeah.
40:50
Yeah. I wouldn't get carried away, though, personally.
40:52
You never would. But they
40:54
do, but it's promising signs, right? Absolutely. The
40:57
players I've kind of developed
41:01
quite a lot recently, I'd say Kai Cido is
41:03
one of them, and I'd say Noni Maduecki as
41:05
well. It's definitely one of them. He's been outstanding
41:07
the last few weeks. He certainly was in this
41:09
game. Cole Palmer's always been there.
41:12
Mudriq's still non-existent. And
41:16
Jackson, when
41:18
someone actually passes him the ball,
41:20
you know, like in a decent
41:22
goal scoring position, you can get a couple of
41:24
goals. I
41:27
personally still wouldn't get too carried away. I
41:29
think they still gave
41:31
up some really good chances. I still am not
41:33
convinced about them defensively. Jared Bohn
41:35
at the bar three times. I
41:38
think West Ham had 13 attempts on goal. I
41:40
know it's a five-noul, it was a well-deserved comprehensive
41:42
win. And the
41:44
thing that you hear Pochettino talking about now
41:46
is that they're maturing. And again,
41:50
I wouldn't... I'd say we're
41:52
seeing signs of that. We're seeing some
41:55
signs of cohesion. Like players who
41:57
now know a little bit more about what it's like
41:59
to play with these. other. But
42:02
like Gallagher and Quesado perhaps in midfield, which
42:04
we have touched on before in recent shows,
42:06
but it just looks a more and more
42:08
persuasive argument that those two should be the
42:10
midfield too and that Enzo, Fernandez and Quesado
42:13
might cost 200 million quid
42:15
together, but doesn't necessarily mean they can play
42:17
together. Yeah, but I mean, again,
42:19
do you have much confidence in any
42:22
of this progress not being undermined again
42:24
in the summer? Why them selling Conor
42:26
Gallagher? Why them selling people that they
42:28
probably shouldn't. And who
42:30
knows what they're doing with Boggardino
42:32
as well. Look,
42:35
they've taken big straights in the last few weeks, but I
42:37
still think there's some serious
42:40
question marks about them. Just on Conor Gallagher, he's
42:42
a player that fascinates me in terms of his
42:44
trajectory, having been in teams on loan and looking
42:46
very good. Then in this Chelsea team, you have
42:48
captain of this Chelsea team. What the hell does
42:51
that mean? We talked about great captains and great
42:53
leaders, Declan Rice, Martin Erdogan. Tony, what do you
42:55
make of Conor Gallagher as a player? Is he
42:58
a player that Chelsea should in this age
43:00
of FFP, pure profit as a home-grown player,
43:02
maybe be looking to sell in the summer
43:04
or should they be keeping hold of him
43:06
at all costs? Well, I always like to
43:08
think players can improve and develop. And I
43:10
think when he went out on loan,
43:12
he got goals and he played in a certain way
43:15
for Crystal Palace. He came
43:17
back to Chelsea and he's been asked to be
43:19
a little bit more disciplined. But when he's got
43:21
Quesado alongside him and he doesn't have to be
43:23
so reliant because Cole Palmer will play often
43:26
in front of him. We'll get in positions around
43:28
the edge of the box and he can feed
43:30
him. He's a really good player.
43:33
I think there's more there. I've always felt that
43:35
about Conor Gallagher. He's not complete because
43:37
Chelsea have gone for a very young
43:39
project. I was
43:42
at the game at Spurs and I thought it
43:44
was easy to say, you
43:46
know, Spurs were pretty poor in the game. As
43:49
Gregor said, Madawaki was really
43:51
good. He wants to take
43:53
the fall back on. He wants to drive
43:55
to that line and he'll come inside and
43:57
the movement at Chelsea has got better. If
44:01
we think, if we go to next season,
44:03
if you think that if Jackson scores
44:06
20, 25% maybe 30%
44:09
more of his chances, he'd have 20 goals. He
44:12
could easily get 20 goals. He's had
44:15
a season where he should be way above 20
44:17
goals with the amount of chances he's had. So
44:19
he's only 22. I'd like
44:21
to think there's a lot more improvement there. The whole
44:24
of their back line's been injured, nearly, all season. People
44:27
like to fan you of, not really kick the ball. There
44:29
was a lot of money spent on him. I
44:33
think certainly Chelsea can challenge for a top four
44:35
next year. I think what we're seeing is the
44:37
form of a team that, with a bit more
44:40
improvement, can go again. I
44:42
love it. That's your second prediction for
44:44
next season already. We've got to... I know.
44:47
I know. I know. I
44:49
know. I know. I
44:51
know. I know. I know.
44:54
I know. I know. I
44:57
know. I know. I know. It's
45:00
way better. And Chelsea are
45:02
not even close to the finished article in any
45:04
shape or form. I'm not going over the top
45:06
here. There are lots of areas of
45:08
the pitch where you think it's
45:11
got to be... And Poch is finding his feet
45:13
with his team. But you can sort of guess
45:15
his side now, which is... That's
45:17
a big thing. If you can name the
45:20
team that the manager's going to name, it's
45:22
because we're all pretty sure that's going to be his
45:24
best lineup. And he hasn't done
45:26
that often enough this year because I don't think
45:28
he's really found his best lineup. He's suddenly, from
45:30
Fernandez being out, and so Fernandez not playing, I
45:33
think they're better. But it has
45:35
Karl Palmer to be that only guard position.
45:38
It doesn't allow him to do that because as we
45:40
know, he can score goals in
45:42
many very different areas of the pitch, Karl
45:44
Palmer. Alison, in terms of players like Madaweke
45:46
and things, we've seen scenes recently of Pochettino
45:48
chumming up with him on the pitch and
45:50
things. And lots of the qualities that he
45:52
had when he was Tottenham manager. Do you
45:54
think there is a sense that it's kind of coming
45:57
together a little bit for Pochettino after a slightly strange
45:59
few weeks where... he was having these mad press
46:01
conferences and talking all about himself rather than about his team.
46:04
Yeah, well, I mean, if
46:07
this was all happening in January,
46:11
it would be like, really quite
46:13
beautiful, because they are coming
46:16
together. They really are. And I
46:19
was also there reporting on the
46:21
game against Spurs, and it
46:24
did feel like a breakthrough moment. Even
46:27
Mudrick played well, actually, which is
46:29
saying something. They were they were
46:32
gelling and they had an identity.
46:34
There was a connection between the
46:36
crowd and the players. It looked
46:39
like they looked like a team. They
46:41
were cohesive and fearless and fun
46:44
to watch. But it might all have
46:46
come too late. And it is
46:48
slightly bizarre that it's taken until May.
46:52
It takes until May for it to happen. So I
46:54
don't know if it has come too late, but
46:57
let's assume it hasn't. I
46:59
think there is. I think I think what we're
47:01
seeing now is really positive. And
47:04
I have been as critical about Chelsea as
47:06
anyone. And I'm prepared to say when
47:08
it clicks for them, they I agree with Tony.
47:10
I think they could be top four next season
47:12
because there's a lot of talent there.
47:15
And I agree completely that Gallagher
47:17
and Kysado are a
47:20
great midfield pairing. But Fernandez,
47:23
I would say I think he's been playing with
47:25
a hernia problem all season and
47:28
he's not been fully fit. So there might
47:30
be that might not be just like what
47:33
a wasted experiment and a lot of money. He
47:35
might still be able to bring something to the team. But
47:37
yeah, it
47:40
is really in the balance whether they stick with
47:42
Poch or not. Just like a little
47:45
reminder that they lost five nil to Arsenal
47:47
two weeks ago. Absolutely. Like the
47:50
Arsenal are bloody good, apparently, according to you. They
47:52
are. They are. Then they played against the
47:54
Villa game and Well,
47:57
they played well. They Still shipped two goals and that the
47:59
chase. The invited to directly
48:01
against the relief of a really
48:03
below par Spurs and Western team
48:05
you are on on the beach
48:07
and ill. Probably.
48:09
Going to get them into of
48:11
himself as a death or just
48:13
think. We. Can have
48:15
had these glimpses before and at this is this
48:18
is. The have taken
48:20
straight and what other said before were see that
48:22
scene and individuals in was seen and stuff
48:24
like Gleeson and units and it was in the
48:26
team but again there are we talking about
48:28
as isn't only about four com and him that
48:30
played together you. Believe
48:33
that he the striker they need. They need
48:35
someone who's like. A.
48:37
Leader at the back as well. I think that
48:39
even amongst those players without with what this book
48:42
about I'm I'm not sure there's like the still
48:44
there so that are things that we still need
48:46
to with that to the score. The thing was
48:48
can be interested in may or may not as
48:50
most games is a big loss and you'd like
48:53
to think they were bets have him in the
48:55
same. I would
48:57
look up for fan yeah and then outlook of
48:59
probably a bench here. well connected, more up cook
49:01
a while by the way. they try to hide
49:04
really really well and the last couple games of
49:06
what am I don't think. This. Essay
49:08
and by the seal or solution for
49:10
Chelsea got into next season might have
49:12
been apply. I think one of the
49:14
might play now and again. I don't
49:16
think that will be the the said
49:18
opposition car was will probably be back
49:20
involved so I think it's a lot
49:22
brighter. Than most people
49:25
think. That sub. I'm
49:27
pretty optimistic about Chelsea Rep as been for
49:29
little while. I mean them when they you
49:31
mentioned got the been a pop into know
49:33
down You know that there's a lot that's
49:36
how see the east and go when they
49:38
get it right and I movie quake My
49:40
don't need much of an improvement to be
49:42
a top fourteen. Brighter.
49:45
The still uncertainty as surrounding Chelsea and
49:47
is definitely someone says the surrounding West
49:49
Ham as you mentioned Gregor this at
49:51
Gary Jacob reporting on the Times website
49:54
and now that Union of Tiger is
49:56
set to take over as manage at
49:58
next season replacing David Moyes. I'm
50:00
Greg you said about with I'm Being
50:02
on the Beach. There is an element
50:04
of that because partly because of this
50:06
uncertainty around the manager and what do
50:08
we make of that situation is that
50:10
those news reports do chance because. He
50:15
didn't use yeah but Pov yes, sympathy
50:17
for David Moyes. Absolutely because he enough.
50:20
When. The Metro for and one has to face
50:22
cause they are you and and like. That
50:24
was an enormous moment for them and one
50:26
that will. Live. With all the
50:28
fans for a long time and I like
50:30
to think that when all the can't ah
50:32
sales and this that he will be remembered
50:34
and they are more fondly and and slightly
50:36
different late is really what they love. It
50:39
said we're not great Lilith isn't was this
50:41
is a thing I mean he. he did
50:43
a brilliant job of wills when he came
50:45
in to kind of making them really well
50:47
organized at it. Could see no evidence of
50:49
of his coaching on that team but. If
50:52
this is a if it's the kinda step teens. That
50:55
you want. For. West Ham to be a club.
50:58
The. Compete in for a like for Champions
51:00
League football and and there's no reason why
51:02
waste time should not be she know others
51:04
aspirations with the size size of the club,
51:07
the size of fan base size of the
51:09
stadium that season when the when they won
51:11
the european to v members that was only
51:13
like two teams in Europe had. Add
51:15
more teams that most more support and the stadium
51:17
that. For. Like the potential is
51:20
undoubtedly they are. I just don't
51:22
know if. The
51:24
step change his lover take our mean to be
51:26
convinced about that because of. What?
51:29
The what they want to see is
51:31
more excitement voice expansive football us assists.
51:33
I don't know thats what look at
51:35
exists. Alison? would you make the
51:37
West Ham situation as we head towards anything.
51:42
I. Think there's a favor cases. Let's
51:45
go for a foreign coach is that
51:47
Phone cases? Banks? And that none of
51:49
this last And. Sesame. Than.
51:52
That Led flares never attached itself
51:54
to David Moyes. That. I.
51:56
Also think. It's gonna
51:58
be easier. for fans accept the
52:01
change because I don't think they're all
52:03
in unison on thinking they weren't always out. I
52:05
think some like regular grown-up enough to think oh
52:07
I remember how happy I was when we won
52:09
that European trophy. It wasn't that long ago was
52:11
it? And
52:13
if you lose 5-0 a couple of
52:15
times is that really worse
52:17
than losing 1-0 a lot more
52:20
often? No it's not it just looks more embarrassing
52:22
in the moment. Overall his
52:24
overall body of work given
52:27
his lost death and life and I thought that's where
52:29
you were going to come back to Dex and Rice
52:31
actually because that's the reason David Moyes gave for the
52:34
5-0 we don't have Dex and Rice. And
52:37
it was a big loss for him to absorb
52:40
and like many managers he's also
52:42
had injury issues. I think it's
52:46
just so easy to think oh you know he's
52:48
done as well as he can Moyes. He got
52:50
them the European trophy. After
52:53
you've done that you sort of ave earned the
52:55
right to not only have won something you don't
52:57
want to be entertained a bit more. It's
53:02
just slightly lazy to think well that'll
53:04
happen if we change the manager and
53:06
oh if he's a foreign manager it'll
53:09
be easier. I don't know this is
53:11
this weird mindset we have in this
53:13
country where it's a
53:15
safe bet to go to someone whose
53:18
CV is actually quite limited in Premier
53:20
League football. I agree with you we
53:22
did gush about him slightly on this
53:24
podcast, Lopategu, but his
53:27
CV in Premier League football
53:29
is quite limited. Changing
53:33
managers the clearest pass to changing the
53:35
style of football. What I'm seeing is
53:37
I'm not sure that Lopategu is the
53:39
guy who to give the
53:41
fans the football they want.
53:44
But there are arguments for changing David Moyes
53:46
and I think probably just about a majority
53:48
of the fan base will
53:50
support the decision while still having
53:53
feeling in the weeks
53:55
and months ahead Real affection
53:57
for David Moyes and what he did. If
54:00
even the clip from allegation twice
54:02
at. Be. Making them you know
54:05
look a season with the finish pretty intense
54:07
and twelve and be disappointed. sense of a
54:09
sudden and see of and that night and
54:11
practice. Absolutely well west. Sometimes if you've
54:13
got views on the change in manager or
54:15
maybe one say you're happy memories about David
54:17
Moyes. You can get such meat and o'clock
54:19
at the time. Dakota you case, Gregory you
54:21
mentioned relegation And that brings us to the
54:23
final segment of the show I Nottingham Forest
54:25
putting some much needed space between them and
54:28
the bottom three with a win against Sheffield
54:30
United at that when Men Chef United became
54:32
the first sides can see the hundred goals
54:34
in thirty eight games English top Flight campaign
54:36
since Leicester City and nineteen O Eight O
54:38
nine. When. They conceded hundred and two
54:40
and Sheffield United frighteningly of got two games
54:42
left to go to top that record and.
54:45
Gregor this is I think I think
54:48
hundred and stuff. but at has this
54:50
been the worst seasons any team in
54:52
the Premier League era. Ask
54:54
the promotion. Adults
54:56
as the man who basically t the up
54:58
that that was exactly going to happen. Impressive.
55:02
Yes I mean as go to the and like.
55:05
Again, I don't. I wouldn't. Really
55:08
any blame at the door of the
55:10
players? that things ridiculous or they won't
55:12
ever given a chance they want supported
55:14
by adding. Some
55:18
more talent to the score the the summer
55:20
thought the last the air I would lay
55:22
the any blame that for like and long
55:24
story though because what what he achieved again
55:27
the promote a display all it off field
55:29
issues and stuff the season before was remarkable
55:31
and first place and I will any blame
55:33
at criswell the store with us he came
55:36
and there was already a sinking ship and
55:38
he tried his best with his can force
55:40
of personality to do some in a voter
55:42
and at as not really happened above a
55:45
very brief spell it stop. Em
55:47
the the blame lies with than subdue
55:49
other owner at is. Search.
55:52
Of the club has been absolutely some
55:54
like those are think that eating, please
55:56
contact the at I hardly ever let
55:58
you football club. The point I'm embedded
56:00
to the I loans to go back to the
56:03
I was there. At just
56:05
than a week before preseason, it
56:07
also said that. He
56:09
said on a on a fun. Fun! Podcast
56:11
can have you tube channel thing that's the
56:13
kind of and abuse against in doesn't dance
56:15
and with local presence and. He
56:18
said that. He. Thinks players only played
56:20
at the best when that in the failure of
56:22
the contract. And a lot
56:24
the players. Who. Just gone from would. Obviously.
56:28
Know. The than the failure at two years
56:30
by the replay of thing can sort
56:32
of it. we just. Below. You
56:34
were on the verge of administration. We've just
56:36
despite all with over things like us know
56:38
of any on the soil he and are
56:41
like could have a cold showers or this
56:43
is not grub hub eighty grand the staff
56:45
not oven he had to be leaks in
56:47
the in the wrist the stuff of an
56:49
any like why scope or anything like that
56:51
in no bills being paid despite everything we've
56:53
just probably double the value of your football
56:55
club bike employed and you see this. So.
56:59
Know. The overhaul that
57:01
that chef as you need to look at
57:03
the summer as advanced turning out what Chris
57:05
while the someone that you know quite well
57:07
i was in when he came in you
57:09
know it was with the idea that not
57:11
just city pull off a miracle saved them
57:13
from relegation the primitive to look forward as
57:15
well with everything the Greg talking about now.
57:18
They're in a. Slightly. Perilous states
57:20
in terms of the teacher the next
57:22
season the championship which is of incredibly
57:24
competitive league with a lot of talented
57:27
teams and talented manages. Yeah I'm well
57:29
I know because I spoke to him
57:31
about this that everything's been already been
57:33
point place for next season already. Now
57:35
with like Geico talked about plans come
57:38
in our contract an idea. Of
57:41
how they can bounce back from next season
57:43
and all the issues that they've gone from
57:45
this year. And there's a clear. Coming
57:47
at us and Quagga we could all
57:49
say that from the south season the
57:52
problems that light a hot light light
57:54
on them for the rest of the
57:56
season was that hacking. But my the
57:58
same issues in our. Just had a
58:00
squad the wasn't good enough. I'm. I.
58:04
Was because I've bought the dark sense of
58:06
humor. Sometimes I was gonna message christened sites,
58:08
just go and watch good film. Chris hundred
58:10
and two time now. she has a sound
58:12
like as a good opposing side note so
58:14
maybe give it a couple of weeks and
58:16
I live. I think
58:18
he knows and I know that things
58:20
have been put in place right now.
58:23
That doesn't necessarily mean it's gonna work.
58:25
I'm. But. I've also
58:27
got low needs as well. Though the. Have
58:29
been at the football club so it's a
58:32
it's a huge challenge in process is been
58:34
there before he was there would need one
58:36
when he walked into the club on the
58:38
had a lot to deal with so he'll
58:41
think he's capable of doing it is a
58:43
very infuse s take positive guy in many
58:45
ways I'm and sometimes he needs to be
58:48
com there. Hum preschools Iraq be amiss amazing
58:50
games re by mom gonna try lose it
58:52
off I'm going to try and get better.
58:54
Three tracks funny now busting you know must
58:57
somehow the chances. Against voice.
58:59
That. Could win Hum enjoy a half sun
59:01
on a we set back on then have
59:03
we not call list. Is
59:06
it just. Does it's not
59:08
good enough? This is the mint and a
59:10
minute minute number. Things were like you see
59:12
someone or defended his panicking because the know
59:14
that declared of season. As
59:16
a good dog about love about of them
59:18
and not just and with books as they
59:20
just weren't good enough them that was clear
59:23
from the start of the season. So full
59:25
of nine or home as well. Three, three
59:27
one where they yeah but it's could probably
59:29
should have been full of Alison get into
59:31
the the I'm in relation to the teams
59:33
who going to be replacing them. Ipswich secured
59:36
their promotion from the jump ship. a remarkable
59:38
story by wanted to look at that promotion
59:40
in relation to the relegation zone. Now with
59:42
Luton burning se night looking like they'll probably
59:44
three teams of treating straight back down. Is.
59:47
The Premier league got harder. Is
59:50
a other who are those teams? Probably
59:52
the three worst he quits did they
59:54
have you know, naive tactical approach is
59:56
Pat Burnley Alison I'm looking eat something
59:58
he said last. The switching care
1:00:00
mckenna be looking at next season in light
1:00:02
of the three teams that just had a
1:00:05
Cracker A and almost certainly sales. I
1:00:09
think. I think that
1:00:11
the hope for them will be that they
1:00:13
have so much momentum and of thing players.
1:00:16
Along with in on the journey
1:00:18
from League One to the families
1:00:21
with a higher ceiling than. Than
1:00:23
probably than the championship they are moments in
1:00:26
a couple of he says they need embroidered
1:00:28
from ever an air. Of
1:00:30
the Odp like a one off million for him. he'd
1:00:32
been it even a long time and can have not
1:00:34
quite got an opportunity. To
1:00:37
and he Capella step up into the Premier League
1:00:39
and. Do something seemingly stay the
1:00:42
same with a few few others as well,
1:00:44
And. In a with Burns's another
1:00:46
he likes been around so many clubs
1:00:48
and lower leagues. aberdeen Scotland complete with
1:00:50
tone and twenty twenty one but you
1:00:53
watch him He was the with. A
1:00:55
stick in the championship by Storm and
1:00:58
his first full season at level. He
1:01:01
thinks the moment the just that momentum
1:01:03
as a bit like seafood United under
1:01:06
Criswell though the first time when. They.
1:01:08
Came from David and theses didn't do but
1:01:11
the by the went up from league one
1:01:13
that one season can a consolidation and the
1:01:15
way up again but there was still a
1:01:17
real cool players from the league one promotion.
1:01:20
That. Step up and for season, what did? They finished
1:01:22
ninth. And and finally
1:01:24
get me type of releasing militarily that
1:01:26
as like so. That it
1:01:28
that? I kinda think there's a chance that
1:01:30
we see that discipline that big Fc keep
1:01:33
the same can a group and obviously add
1:01:35
to it. Am under no. we're
1:01:37
again. There's no way that they can
1:01:39
have. Been. Duly with
1:01:41
if tweak they're they're still a plea. From the league
1:01:43
one to the championship is that. Mckenna
1:01:46
acknowledge this is a for I
1:01:48
was a far more athletic dynamic league
1:01:50
if the event a real detail
1:01:52
either. Things like the amount of thing
1:01:55
the balls in play. It
1:01:57
jumped by like five or six minutes. But
1:01:59
in the league. So he knew that
1:02:01
he had to have a really athletic team and look
1:02:03
you'll know that there's another big step up to the
1:02:05
Premier League But when
1:02:07
they have the ball they see did a bit more possession
1:02:09
in the championship, too So he's
1:02:11
just a really intelligent coach and I think
1:02:13
I think fun the fundamentals about her ups
1:02:15
which play and how they want You
1:02:18
know some of the stats in the piece about the
1:02:21
Outscored every every team even on even
1:02:23
on like Goals
1:02:25
per game because obviously there's more games in the football
1:02:27
league in the Premier League only I
1:02:29
think there's only the top three in the Liverpool
1:02:32
Arsenal Man City Who
1:02:34
scored more goals per game than it's which they
1:02:36
will be a threat going forward you
1:02:38
know what Allison mentioned flavor of the month and
1:02:41
ideas earlier on and You
1:02:43
know we're looking back at one season This
1:02:46
season could be a one-off where in my opinion
1:02:48
that's what it will be many teams have stayed
1:02:50
up You know this idea that three
1:02:52
teams go down and it's going to happen regularly from
1:02:54
here on in I just think is nonsense I
1:02:57
think it will be this is just
1:02:59
a one-off season that a
1:03:01
lot of times over the last ten years Yes,
1:03:03
teams come up and get relegated again But we
1:03:05
haven't had that scenario of three of them going
1:03:08
down. Mmm, you know, which is possible this year
1:03:10
I'd like to think I'd like to be
1:03:12
a bit more optimistic that We'll
1:03:15
look back at this period and go no it didn't end up
1:03:17
panning out that way year by year I think normally we will
1:03:19
look back on this period as if there's
1:03:21
a change in the in the distribution of
1:03:23
money from the Premier League downwards because there's
1:03:27
teams who Who
1:03:29
have been average? who have Competed
1:03:33
the next season just because of Premier League
1:03:35
parachute payments allows You
1:03:37
can almost argue chef United or one look all the mess
1:03:39
that they were in And
1:03:42
the fact that the fact that they could hold on to
1:03:44
the bulk of their squad from the Premier League Meant
1:03:47
they were gonna have a chance and they could put all that
1:03:49
to one side and you're not not rich have done it It's
1:03:51
like You almost don't
1:03:53
have to be that good. You don't have to be
1:03:55
that smart anymore If you have Premier
1:03:57
League parachute payments to be in with in
1:04:00
with a really good chance of bouncing
1:04:02
straight back. And mostly it's gonna happen every year,
1:04:04
but what they were competing with,
1:04:06
Ipswich's turnover is like 20 million. And
1:04:09
the parachute payments, 43. 43
1:04:11
million. But I was thinking the other way, Greg, I was talking
1:04:13
about teams going up and then coming back down. You
1:04:15
know, like Ipswich are going up this year. There's not, you know, this
1:04:18
year we look like we could have maybe all
1:04:20
three getting relegated. We've got to promote the point
1:04:23
this year. Yeah, there's context in everyone. Like Leicester,
1:04:25
you would imagine, you know, Leicester have been a
1:04:27
team that have been able to submit their status
1:04:29
in the Premier League. And you would imagine that
1:04:31
they all have a good chance of doing that,
1:04:33
even if leads go up. If, so it's time
1:04:35
to go back up. Well,
1:04:38
it's not easy. The golf
1:04:40
is undoubtedly bigger. One final point that I wanted to
1:04:42
make in relation to this, which leads us back to
1:04:45
the very starting topic of this podcast about Tottenham and
1:04:47
changing styles. And Alison, I'll come
1:04:49
to you on this, because in the championship and
1:04:51
across the football pyramid, there's such a desire to
1:04:53
play a certain way and to play wonderful attacking
1:04:55
football, which Ipswich have definitely done this season. Alison,
1:04:58
of course, you saw them undone by the mighty
1:05:00
Maidstone in the FA Cup. And
1:05:02
you've been a big pusher of Burnley maybe adapting
1:05:04
a more pragmatic approach after blowing the championship away
1:05:07
last season. Do you think that might be
1:05:09
a factor? We've seen many teams
1:05:11
come up before, Chris Wilder, Sheffield, being
1:05:13
one of them, who are very solid,
1:05:15
very hardworking, still play good football
1:05:17
at times, but that's not the be all and
1:05:19
end all. And that these teams maybe come
1:05:21
up with this desire for wonderful football and don't,
1:05:24
as we're saying with Tottenham, have the quality to
1:05:26
play like that way in the Premier League.
1:05:28
So could that be a problem? Yeah, no, if
1:05:30
you, so it used to be that
1:05:34
the qualities that got you to win
1:05:36
the championship were not the
1:05:38
qualities that you'd need
1:05:40
in the Premier League. And those qualities were
1:05:42
athleticism and stamina and
1:05:46
good management. And when
1:05:49
you get to the Premier League and you
1:05:51
think, oh, well, lacking the ability to
1:05:53
cope with Tiki
1:05:55
Taka or whatever was the flavour of the month, it's
1:05:58
just a level above in terms of... technical
1:06:01
skill and a really weird
1:06:03
thing has happened, I think it's
1:06:05
the weirdest thing I've ever seen in
1:06:08
football is that Burnley managed to win
1:06:10
the championship playing pretty, very
1:06:13
pretty football, stylish football
1:06:15
and so a lot of people were
1:06:17
seduced into thinking well they'll
1:06:20
acclimatise better than anybody in the Premier
1:06:22
League because that's what you do
1:06:25
there but it's
1:06:27
almost inverted so in the Premier League you need
1:06:29
to be able to have all the technical ability
1:06:31
but you need to be such
1:06:34
prime specimens of athletes as well that's
1:06:37
the golf, it's having
1:06:40
all of it so you can still
1:06:42
play pretty football in championship and win it and
1:06:44
yet looks like you haven't got 90 minutes of
1:06:47
football in you when you've come to the Premier
1:06:49
League and you haven't got the standard of skill,
1:06:51
you've got relatively good technicians
1:06:53
but compared to what
1:06:55
exists in the Premier League you're made to
1:06:58
look naive and so on
1:07:00
so I do find that
1:07:02
fascinating that what you
1:07:04
have, what you contain to get
1:07:06
promotion, it's all about what
1:07:09
you do with it to stay up which is why
1:07:11
one reason I'm a big
1:07:13
fan of Thomas Frank, we talked about a
1:07:15
lot yesterday because... Sounds like you talked
1:07:17
about everything yesterday to be fair. Because
1:07:19
I would have, I still
1:07:21
think I'd rather him in the Narni slot with the
1:07:23
next Liverpool manager because we've
1:07:25
seen what he can do because he,
1:07:28
you need a really clever coach to
1:07:31
take the best bits that got you promotion
1:07:34
and to adapt to the Premier League and that
1:07:36
often just means you know how you set up
1:07:38
against specific opposition. Greg
1:07:40
a final word from you on that point
1:07:42
and Ipswich and Kieran McKenna being that clever
1:07:45
coach, that can take Alison's points and adapt
1:07:47
and still keep what they are. Yeah, Bernal is a
1:07:50
good reference point in fairness because they took
1:07:52
the championship by storm and you know we
1:07:55
had this conversation in the preview show didn't we
1:07:57
about how Bernal were gonna Adapt.
1:08:00
organ of you know evolve a toll
1:08:02
on the and they didn't really but
1:08:04
it does come the and and athleticism
1:08:06
and and in all the physical aspect
1:08:08
of of the step up. As
1:08:10
huge as again, he was Burnley's. Burnley's
1:08:14
Defend Them Against Newcastle. Ah, and
1:08:16
it was. There was a i
1:08:18
think it was. Column.
1:08:20
Wilson was wrestling with some and couldn't win
1:08:22
the byline. He just thought this is absolute
1:08:24
mess. Much like there's so many be so
1:08:27
many moments like that where it. Is
1:08:30
not in the same level physically. And
1:08:32
I google voice seen as kill him
1:08:34
again as someone who clearly. Does
1:08:38
his homework and he recognized that from the step
1:08:40
up. Between. League Loan Championship
1:08:42
and yes is the biggest step up.
1:08:44
but he he he. Highly it's
1:08:46
the the things that you need to change about
1:08:48
his team and change them and that made of
1:08:51
such one of the best teams in illegal buff
1:08:53
muscles can happen in the premier league but I
1:08:55
think he has a free shot main and you'll
1:08:57
you'll know what he has to change about his
1:08:59
at Ipswich team and way to keep the same
1:09:02
Absolutely and congratulations to if six runs as well
