You both complement each other so well. Letting the other one speak and neither being quiet all the time. I don't listen to duo podcasts generally, but you guys are good!
Got to disagree on Tuchel loving mediocre players. He tried to get better midfielders and Bayern chose to believe in Kimmich. His favorite coached players would probably be Dembele, Auba, Neymar, Musiala, Mbappe, Di Maria, Leroy Sané. And they’re some of the players who’ve praised him the most
Genuinely one of my favourite football podcasts. The chemistry and respect between you two is outstanding. And the takes aren’t outrageous, there’s rationale behind them unlike a lot of other podcasts. Plus you’re not speaking over each other so it’s easier to listen to. Keep up this great content boys. 💜
I love the take on Ancelotti and I saw his brilliance even as PSG manager. If he does win his 5th, I definitely think he deserves top 3 spot. Talk about a manager who’s done it for decades and through different eras of football for a wide range of clubs with their own problems that he dealt with. A manager who players run through walls for. Definitely needs his praise. PS: flop of the quarter final is Xavi Star is Dembele or Rodygo as well. 🌟
Facts. People are still sleeping on Don Carlo as a manager. He shows what having experience, and what being level-headed, tactically flexible and a good man manager can do for you. He just meshes incredibly well with big talent and even big personalities. He's the ultimate father figure in football, like a modern-day Marcello Lippi.
@@Al-ji4gdpeople will argue about his lack of success domestically but winning a league title in every country you managed in while winning the biggest domestic cup in 3 of them and the ucl 4 times sounds like an elite career to me
Modern fans conflate managers tactical ability with how consistent their philosophy/style is, they completely ignore the personal side of management. Ancelotti has been taking teams and making the best with their various skill sets for 30 years. Managing is about more than tactics, for him to last in this game for that long with how much things have evolved is insane
Flops were Barca and Arsenal, for sure. Araujo, Xavi, Cancelo, Haaland, Saka, Rice, Gabriel & Saliba (for the first leg, mainly). Stars were Ancelotti, Terzic, Dortmund's entire XI basically, Tuchel, Kimmich, Musiala (I actually think he was the best player in the 2nd leg), Lunin and maybe a few more.
The way they talk about saka is so jarring man, ‘thanking arteta’ like he wasn’t one of our best player under every manager dragging us up, these man just hate those high efficiency high IQ ballers that don’t dribble past 2 men
Saka was more enjoyable to watch his early years on the Left. Arteta helped transform him into a g/a machine to where he basically matches moh salahs output now. Footballs increasingly about sysetms now. Artetas system has helped saka get these world class shouts.
@@aeongenesis4181 ok but neither are actual DMs My point is they had to make up for their defensive deficiencies and lack of personnel so of course they were gonna play defensive, and they did it impeccably.
@@SHUTUPNOWW9360 I included GK as well and also Rudiger wasn't a starter before this season, he got promoted because Militao tore his ACL in the first game.
@@thetruth4654 Foden isn’t an all time PL great yet lmao. And Akanji is also a treble winner lmao, can we not compare Saliba to him now ? That’s just because they are in a way better side, plus Foden didn’t even start the final. They are comparable, Foden slightly better for me but definitely comparable
He obviously doesn't watch the bundasliga , Haaland was creating his own goals hundreds playing in on the shoulder also roaming all over the the forwards line
I think the haaland wanting to go out thing was more of him putting his trust in Julian Alvarez. Something along the lines of hey maybe if i couldn't do it over 2 games, maybe he can find the way to help the team. Plus 90 mins against rudiger getting pushed, pulled etc is prob not easy physically.
I think many Arsenal fans have always known our attacks still has levels to go in terms of upgrades, mainly with the 9 position but then a left wing option that could see Martinelli be a backup LW and potential 9 long term as an option has always been touted (Arteta has compared Martinelli to Suarez before i.e in mould). Saka is a great weapon and is the mainstay in whatever front 3 we construct, but if the other 2 are bonafide stars as well, it helps him out a lot in terms of burden + unlocking new parts to his game, and I think that's what we're hoping for. Osimhen and Leao would be the dream.
We also until last summer haven't had the Champions League to attract the superstar attackers and midfielders until now, so agree adding them to the current structure is the final piece
I don’t agree with that KDB being a moments player take at all. KDB was the best player on the pitch (bar Lunin) and was unlucky to sky that one chance. He created so much and was causing problems the whole game long. That game was the KDB show and if City had won on penalties I don’t think you would say that. City are weaker than last season but KDB is still that guy, with or without G/A.
Kdb gets judged on n fairly due to city… he possibly could be himself bigger than city Had he played for Real Madrid, they would call him the greatest midfielder to ever play the game Every time he’s against Madrid he outclasses Kroos n modric by far regardless of the score
@@Prime1Wunna He is nowhere near isco let alone kroos and modric. The most overrated midfielder of all time and prime example of how system is king in modern football. If he was playing for madrid and kroos was playing for pep's city, kroos would be rodri on steroids completing 200 passes a game with 10 key passes. You are waffling and the fact that you comapred KDB to kroos and modric tells me you know nothing about the sport. Prime isco runs rings around KDB let alone kroos and Luka
@@LyesBouzidiRespect for recognising the misconception! Just another point as I am a Man City fan and cant at all criticise these player's commitment. Bellingham could run himself to the ground because RM had 9 days of rest before the first leg (City played 2 games in that period) and rested everyone midweek as well with the league sown up. This bit of context would have been useful whole discussing the tiredness situation. Anywho, top work as always 🫡
As an Arsenal fan, I agree on the segment. We need more quality in attacking areas. We need a Rafa Leão type of player and another player to progress the ball
Why does no one ever speak on the fact that kdb won city a treble on a bad hamstring which sidelined him for 5 months, and he already an injury prone tag. He may have potentially ruined the tail end of his career but nothing is spoken off.
A number of reasons; A) People genuinely don't want to talk about City. It's a fake plastic club that people want gone. You really think neutrals want to glorify a financially doped club? B) The narrative surrounding City is that "Genius" Pep is the main character. The players are just chess pieces and will never get full credit. It's unfair to KDB but it's the reality of playing for Pep. Messi is the only player to win the Balon D'Or under Pep and that will never change because Pep is the one that will take all the credit (not the players) C) People won't openly debate this yet but I guarantee you the overall feeling is that City are engaging in ridiculous performance enhancing drug abuse. Pep's history suggests that it's very plausible and some of the physical endurance feats of players like Rodri, Walker and De Bryune himself are extremely fishy. Playing through a nasty hamstring injury but not having any visible drop in physical performance is suspect. Time will reveal the extent of City's cheating.
Good footy talk💪🔥 I more or less agree with everything but I dont understand why Pep mentioned they wanted to come out . If Klopp did that people would say he is deflecting . Liverpool fan here 😢
I think with Haaland after the season finishes he needs to go develop and improve his all round 9 skills and learn how to deal with low blocks because most teams will be doing like what Real Madrid and arsenal did against him
Lyes is so right. I've been waiting for someone to notice this. I think arteta slightly restricts players. i think he isn't a fan of freedom on the pitch, this is probably why he doesn't play people like nelson because nelson is known for his flair skills and tricks. i think arteta much prefers efficiency which isn't necessarily bad but just what he likes i think.
Man utd will always be my number 1 club but madrid is my adopted club. I watch them just as much as man utd and i fell in love with football coz of R9 so they wil always be special to me.
