00:00:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hello and welcome to the Daily Brighton Podcast. It's your boy Jamie G and I'm joined by the famous trio, ah Joe Richardson, blessings to Bamba as we are here to assess and preview the Southampton vs Brighton game on a Friday night prime time.
00:00:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
football on Sky, I think it

Game Expectations and Predictions

00:00:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
is. ah What a game. You couldn't ask for two better teams. you know It's a battle of the South Coast teams. We've dispatched of Bournemouth last week. we And now we're ready to reign supreme over the South Coast with against a team whose fate could not be more different to ours. They're struggling at the bottom of the table while we're mixing it up with the big boys in the Champions League.
00:01:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Joe, bless. How are we feeling ahead of the game tonight?
00:01:05
Joe
Mate, when you said we could ask for two better teams, we definitely could. We could definitely get another team that's probably better than Southampton.
00:01:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
You've got to pick them up a bit. Come on. They've had a tough season.
00:01:15
Joe
Do we? Do we? I don't know. I think that this one, when me and Bless went through the sort of Christmas time running games, I actually skipped the Bournemouth game first and went straight to this one and said, yeah, three points.
00:01:30
Joe
So I'm actually expecting nothing less than three points, mate.
00:01:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
like don
00:01:35
Joe
Yeah, I think it should be a ah pretty simple victory.

Southampton's Tactical Challenges

00:01:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
Bless will you be fuming if we drop points against the likes of saints.
00:01:46
blessings
Yeah, these are the type of games um I've always been cautious to um always mention that we do slip up when we are expected to win. these are And these are the type of games. I think Saints will be up for it. I think we've just got to get an early go and then get five or six, please.
00:02:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
your Five or six? God, no resting. I yeah actually think I agree. i'll cut If we don't win this game, that is the biggest three points lost or dropped all season. How do you kind of see the game going, Joe?
00:02:20
Joe
um I am fully expecting them to um come out and try and play their brand of football, the passing out from the back. Um, sort of trying to break the lines because they've shown so far this season, that they're not scared really of the opposition.
00:02:37
Joe
We saw it against Liverpool. They tried it. Um, obviously they played themselves in trouble on numerous occasions, but, um, I still expect to see it. Um, they might potentially tweak it a little bit.
00:02:49
Joe
So we've obviously, um, Paul, what's his last name again? Now but he's got, he's got mentioned like four times as podcasts is outrageous.
00:02:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
I will not choose. he can
00:02:56
Joe
Um, yeah so with him being sort of that like um outlet i wouldn't be surprised if maybe they did mix it up and go along a little bit but they do seem pretty stubborn with the knocking it about and trying to build up um never want to go long at all not even hitting the balls into like channels for like wingers or anything like that so um but i'm expecting maybe
00:02:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
but
00:03:18
Joe
they're really like vulnerable on the counter press so maybe just sort of pick it up off we've lost it again try and win it back hit them again done that's the sort of that's sort of what i want to see and what i'm expecting to see to be honest this with you
00:03:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah it's crazy how stubborn they are in like playing out from the back and just no matter what happens they will can't constantly go to it even though they like you said they've got a six foot seven striker there are zero long balls going to this striker it could be quite an easy day for Van Hecke although I know Canata and Van Dyke might have struggled last week but it wasn't through like him really doing much it was through their kind of giving them the ball. a Bless, do you see the game kind of being the same way Joe does?
00:04:06
blessings
Yeah, I think um in terms of their threats going forward, I think it's only Adam Armstrong and Tyler Diblin who's having a very good season. But apart from that, really, there's not much to be um to be you know wary of. And I think if we just lock those two down, they haven't really got much. And again, they constantly just keep shooting shooting themselves in the foot.
00:04:33
blessings
I was watching that game against Liverpool and I was pulling my hair out. I could not believe it. but Some of the things McCarthy was doing was absolute criminal.
00:04:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
honestly
00:04:42
blessings
I couldn't believe it.
00:04:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, honestly, he gifted what felt like Liverpool win. The first one, he just throws it to ah throws out quickly when there's about seven Liverpool players in the box.
00:04:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
And then second, one the penalty could have easily been saved. He dived the right way. But yeah, I'm with you. like And there was actually
00:05:00
blessings
He can't criticise him for the pen.
00:05:02
Joe
yeah
00:05:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
then he dived the right way and then didn't save it yeah that's okay i was actually trying to think of it go i'm glad you brought it up the one where he runs onto the book is crazy what's he doing what is he doing like that was all free with his fault but yeah you were mentioned that they're a very much possession team uh earlier uh they have
00:05:04
blessings
How are you missing the one where he runs past the ball?
00:05:07
Joe
yeah
00:05:13
blessings
ah
00:05:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
I mean, they're they're flirting with the Champions League places in that sense, you know, they've got 55% possession, which is the fifth most in the league. God, he he does not divert from the way he plays. And like you say, he constantly bites him in the ass.
00:05:41
Joe
I couldn't think of anything worse than supporting a team where you have all of the ball, but then they've only scored, they've only scored like, is it like nine goals and how many of them open play?
00:05:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
can Do nothing. They've scored nine, which is the
00:05:57
Joe
light
00:05:58
Global Sports Podcast Network
Ooh, I don't...
00:05:59
Joe
like it would be like seven maybe that's just a suit because they obviously had oh no well he missed a penalty didn't he so it technically counts as open play so yeah so I can I couldn't think of anything more boring and watching your team like have all this possession but doing absolutely nothing with it I surely like one of the worst genres of a football team
00:06:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mmm.
00:06:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, well yeah.
00:06:18
Joe
there possibly I'm not even I'm not even like I'm saying it from a sympathetic point of view I'm not like trying to cut out Southampton as a team but I understand like it can't be nice to sort of like I mean in the Liverpool game I watched it as well they were literally cheering when they went long it's insane as mental
00:06:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mmm.
00:06:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, yeah and no, the thing I would hate is having a manager that just refuses to change. I mean, we saw it with Burnley and company last season. The clip the personnel clearly isn't good enough to play this style of football, where they try and p play out from the back, then they try and um slowly go out the pitch being creative. Like, it's not proving good for them. I mean, they're seven, to your point, they're 17th in expected goals. So yeah, they have all the ball and do nothing with it quite often.
00:07:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
But yeah, that that would be the most infuriating thing for me to watch as a fan.
00:07:11
blessings
yeah i just think like the whole point of playing possessionbased football is that you've got control of the game um It's all one of fun having a 54% possession, but if you're you're going to give it away in your um in in the box numerous times in a game, they will eventually score.
00:07:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
to
00:07:28
blessings
It's like it's not rocket science. and I think to your point as well, Jamie, the fact that he continues just to stick by that and not necessarily... like You don't have to change it all, but at least mix it up so people don't know what to expect.
00:07:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:07:42
blessings
like um On um Friday, we know exactly what to expect. We know exactly what Brighton are going to do as well. We're going to be high up. um So it's like, yeah, it's a recipe for disaster because you haven't got the personnel or the quality to do it. um It's quite painful to watch. And I'm not even a Saints fan, but it's very painful.
00:08:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah as a neutral. yeah um in that's In the next segment we are going to be talking about how we can hurt them and who we think is going to shine in tonight's game.

Brighton's Strategic Opportunities

00:08:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
and we are back with the Daily Brighton podcast and we are going to be talking about how we are going to hurt them and I think Joe mentioned earlier on that we are probably going to have a lot of joy in the counter press style of football. And Joe, speak about that because you watched the Liverpool game and you've watched them a couple of times this season. They are dodgy on the ball. They give chances. They have bad passes. They're constantly shooting themselves in the foot, like we said.
00:09:10
Joe
ah It's a bit of a mad one because in terms of in the Liverpool game, I know it's ah it's a small sample size, obviously, but I feel like we all watched it, right? We all watched that game.
00:09:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, yeah.
00:09:21
Joe
yeah So I feel like with that, they tried to put Flynn Downs in that in the five.
00:09:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm-hmm.
00:09:29
Joe
And ah I imagine that that was in an attempt to sort of get the play going um and sort of like get the transition from defence to midfield, work it it through.
00:09:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I thought that's...
00:09:43
Joe
And it just isn't when there's so many mistakes in the backline, they were missing Bednarak. And I think it had a pretty, pretty big effect because When you're when your're playing there's that five and you know that, okay, as the five, we're going to start moving the ball around and sort of trying to get the ball through midfield. And then it's disjointed and now you've got Flynn Downs in there who's by Trader Midfielder. And then the only players that you can really probably, like properly trust are Matias Fernandez, who looked really good against Liverpool and also Tyler Diblin.
00:10:20
Joe
then you as a as a as the opposition team you know like okay we shut these passing lanes down and we give them absolutely nowhere to go they're not going to hoof the ball so eventually they're going to have to literally either somehow play out past us pass the press break the press or they're going to give us the ball in the box so i mean It sounds like out of all of the teams we've played this season, this podcast, this like sort of preview has been the easiest in terms of idea and what, especially a team that we don't watch very much, idea and this team is probably the easiest it's been because you know exactly like, bless it, you know exactly what you're going to get.
00:10:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh yeah Yeah, you are 100% right.
00:11:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
like Like you say, you can only you even if you only watch like match of the day and constant like, I think I've watched Southampton, the full game of Southampton, they've been on TV like what, three times potentially?
00:11:15
Joe
Against Bournemouth.
00:11:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
But you can, yeah, you can see like kind of how they play just in those short games or in in the short sample size, because they do that constantly. And then then you watch the highlights and you just see the same thing over and over and over again.
00:11:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
and I was actually speaking to Southampton lads the other day. One of them didn't seem to like mind that ah Russell Martin continues to go with this philosophy. But like you say, bless earlier, you said you'll be tearing your hair out. That's what I would be doing as well. I couldn't think of a worse or ah Yeah, ah he's got his philosophy is what Zach was saying on the pod yesterday and at least he's not changing and like not being half-hearted with anything But it comes a point where we've said in the past with Hertzler I hope he changes and doesn't be so stubborn and I feel that's what Russell Martin needs to kind of learn as a because he is still a young manager He needs to develop in that sense
00:12:11
blessings
Yeah, there's definitely a lot of like good things you can get out of and in being consistent with your philosophy and your ideas. but um And to be honest, I prefer a manager who has an identity in philosophy.
00:12:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
in.
00:12:24
blessings
But I think you've got to mix it up a bit. You've got to have um ah a plan B, a plan C, I think. You've got

Adaptation vs Philosophy in Football

00:12:32
blessings
to be able to just tweak things and make it a bit different.
00:12:35
blessings
And I know they go sometimes from a um ah back four to a back five. but ruling truly the sort of approach to the game is always the same for them and that's where they just keep getting caught and I think one player I'm going to basically shout out for Friday Georgina Ruta watch him I'm going to call at least four interceptions in Southampton's half because he just worked so hard so like yeah
00:13:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
You're adding that for the best of already.
00:13:05
Joe
right Yeah that's like that's straight on the bet builder mate.
00:13:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
is yeah
00:13:09
blessings
literally yeah
00:13:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
it
00:13:11
blessings
Yeah, if you love and that if you love a bet builder, come in here, listen closely.
00:13:16
Joe
I'm just going to quickly piggyback off what bless has said and also what you said Garo in terms of like i'm talking about the manager's like ID. you I feel like it's quite I'm not even this I'm not cussing this guy out I don't know him but to be like oh he has his philosophy and all that stuff it's all good and well mate but like It's not working.
00:13:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm.
00:13:37
Joe
It's literally just not working. And um I think Carragher said in the on the comms of the Liverpool game, I think he said like, you need to take into consideration like game state.
00:13:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:13:48
Joe
And that is quite interesting because I feel like it's something that's forgotten. Game state, when you're changing what you're doing in the middle of the game, you're not changing your philosophy.
00:13:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:13:58
Joe
You're adjusting it based on the context of what's happening.

Key Players and Matchups

00:14:02
Joe
so like when you're when you're squeezed in okay hit the six foot seven striker right if it doesn't come off and it comes back it's fine you're going to be able to play out from the back at some point their press isn't going to be perfect every time right it just doesn't work like that
00:14:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. Yeah.
00:14:22
Joe
so like okay it's all good he has identity fine absolutely calm ah we've all said before about her so we don't want him to change his identity we just want him to tweak what's going on dependent on what's happening and like you can't settle for that like mediocrity where it's like oh he's gonna play out from the back yes we conceded however many goals from playing out from the back why would you settle for that as a fan i don't get it
00:14:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:14:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I think like that character point I heard him say that on commentary and literally I think like minutes later is when ah Alex McCarthy gave it away to live for and I was thinking and then he was like shouting on the commentary booth then that's exactly what I mean. ah But yeah, I couldn't agree.
00:15:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
so much of what he said in terms of saying there's a time and a place to do things and I actually think that works in ahead of our game against them tonight that works in our favor in sense I think we can be much braver like I would be so happy for us to try the classic Bruno Fernandez ah trying to play the outrageous pass or long ball or the through ball just to
00:15:23
Joe
Hollywood. Yeah.
00:15:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
Even if they do win it back, we have the players there ready to press and then we know we can, like you say, bless it. Georgina Ruta has the work rate to intercept them and then we can punish them that way. So I would actually, this is where I would love to see us take risks. Really just do the difficult pass or not try and play it around as much. Don't be afraid to give the ball to them and then punish them that way.
00:15:56
Joe
100%, mate.
00:15:58
blessings
Yeah, I think even if even without Belieber, I think we've still got way too much for them, I think. It'll probably be Matt Swiffer, I'd imagine, who comes in. um But yeah.
00:16:08
Joe
No matter where I am, it's not yet.
00:16:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
All right. Oh, yeah, I reckon you're right Lee.
00:16:10
blessings
ah We need a defense.
00:16:12
Joe
I'd like to see it. I'd like to see it.
00:16:14
blessings
Yeah, I'd like to see O'Reilly, but I think we need a defensive mind, because Iari will probably stay in.
00:16:19
Joe
Yeah.
00:16:19
blessings
um So Matt Swiffer will come and sit. um But yeah, I think I totally agree with you Jamie. I think this is a like a good opportunity to get an early goal and really get at this team and put a marker down that we are, you know, not cutting about these man.
00:16:36
Joe
Yeah, 100%.
00:16:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. I don't know whether Jack Hincherwood is returning or not. ah It says doubtful at the moment. this is So i I could see him as well starting because i I still don't think Hertzler believes in Matt Swiffer enough. Like he's played Jakob Moda above him or brought him on ahead of him in a couple of games. So I think the belief just isn't there from from him. But Joe, who do you because Blessed said, I think, Ruta as what a man to watch. Who are you thinking of?
00:17:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
a man to watch yourself.
00:17:09
Joe
um I'm gonna, I'm sort of gonna go for, ah I'm gonna go for Jad Pedro. I want him to um really piggyback off the that that that amazing performance.
00:17:23
Joe
um I've actually forgotten who we just played. Who did we just play? I literally was watching it.
00:17:28
blessings
BOOM!
00:17:28
Joe
But yeah, how have I forgotten that? um Yeah, so I want to see a performance similar to Bournemouth. I also want to see a performance that that is similar to actually the way that Tottenham played against Man City.
00:17:41
Joe
We're speaking about game state. They really, after they got the first goal, they really turned the knife and I would like to see exactly the same from us.
00:17:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
who
00:17:51
Joe
I think Jal Pedro could be the key to unlocking the defence. um i don't even ah like I don't even care if he necessarily scores, but I feel like he could easily get a return of some sort. um Picking it up in areas where you don't want the defenders to be going in, then Danny Welbeck moving players all over the shop. like Just basically discombobulating them, man.
00:18:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm-hmm.
00:18:12
Joe
and I want to see like blessed and early going and I want to see us put them to the sword. Like I don't want to see one goal, respect them, sit back. I want to see one goal.
00:18:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh yeah.
00:18:25
Joe
Let's make sure they can't ever recover from the goal difference sort of vibe is what I'm going for. But I think Jal Pedro is key to that because sort of that creative like that Hollywood that
00:18:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:18:36
Joe
creativity, the eye for a goal as well. I think that's in games like this, this is where you want those players to really stand up and separate themselves from all of the other players on the pitch.
00:18:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah 100% and yeah after this break we'll be talking about our score predictions as well as some players that they might have that we need to keep an eye on as well as expand on some more points of how we think the game's going to go.
00:19:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
And we are back with the Daily Brighton podcast and I think we did a bit of analysis on how we can damage them. I wanted to say one part I don't think we touched on before in the last segment is Mo Salah scored a brace in the last game against Southampton. Do you, and Metomas obviously scored in our last game against Bournemouth, do you see him being a threat bless?
00:20:02
blessings
Yeah, no, I wanted to bring up Ntoma actually. I think, um yeah, his speed and trickery is going to cause issues for whatever right back Southampton brings. And it would be really good.
00:20:13
blessings
Again, we've been talking a lot about him on this pod and we want him to kick on. I think this is a good opportunity to kick on because the right back, I think is Sangura,
00:20:23
Joe
called Carl up at us.
00:20:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
If you're a car walk Peters, yeah.
00:20:26
blessings
a car walker.
00:20:29
blessings
Yeah, whichever one of them to, I think Mattoma's got the beating of, and I think, yeah, again, we want him to be direct and get a sis, get a goal, and really kick on from that ball performance.
00:20:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, 100%. That's actually who I thought maybe he could have a game. because Obviously, they play it three at the back, which could leave whichever fallback or wingback kind of exposed one-on-one. I know they'll have the help of whichever centre-back is along that side. But you know when you've got so many, like we said on the reaction pod, when you've got Zhao Pedro that you need to monitor for, Rooter to monitor for, and you've got Danny Welbeck that they'll probably that will suck them into the midfield, then I think that could leave ah Carl Walker Peters, Exposed, or s Sangura or whatever his name is.
00:21:15
Joe
Ciguara, absolutely nowhere there.
00:21:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
I know what each of them are.
00:21:17
blessings
Yeah we will be butchering his name.
00:21:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah
00:21:18
Joe
good
00:21:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:21:20
Joe
ah
00:21:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
Sugawara, yeah, to when he came on he had a howler and concealed a penalty so he doesn't look comfortable, that confident, hasn't looked essentially great since he's been in. I can't say I watch a lot of Southampton but yeah, that so I actually would love to see him kick on like you say. But they've also got their own winger in Tyler Dibbling who has every time I've watched him, whether it's a match the ah match of the day or whether it's her highlights or whether it's a natural game, he is cooking this season and I actually think he could be a threat.
00:21:53
Joe
I think that with Tyler Diblin, I think, because he picks the ball up in um ah central positions quite a lot, likes to get on the half turn. I actually think this might be one of the, I see a lot of um our fans saying like, oh, um if there's going to be a game that believers going to miss, then it's like, this game is sort of like, it's a good thing that he's going to miss this game. And like, I get it.
00:22:16
Joe
but I think that he's, he, we would benefit from having him in there and stopping. I basically want him to try to eat Tyler Diblin, essentially.
00:22:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
you
00:22:26
Joe
um And he's not going to be there. And to be honest, I don't trust Matt Swiffer just as much as Herzler does. I already gets a bow, but he could get twist up by my man.
00:22:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm.
00:22:38
Joe
Cause he was twisting up the Liverpool players.
00:22:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:22:40
Joe
So I don't, I just, I just think that. he's got such a tenacity about him, he's really strong even though he looks like a bit of a fairy um and I think that if you stop him from getting on it then it's and obviously you're avoiding it but also the other one in that sort of central area as well, Matias Fernandez, he also has a little bit about him as well so um it is just going to sort of be about stopping them
00:22:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:23:09
Joe
getting on it because they are the ones that can create for them. um So I'm not really massively worried about Adam Armstrong. I don't think anyone should really be worried about Adam Armstrong.
00:23:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
No.
00:23:18
Joe
But he's, I think those two, ah the Massage Fernandez and Tyler Diblin are the ones that you have to keep an eye on.
00:23:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I think Tyler Dibbling had a run and he's done it basically all season I think for them. He's like being their only shining light but he had a run against Liverpool where he got it past like one, got it past one and then they tried crowding him and then he had like the the strength you kind of talk about to kind of hold them off
00:23:45
Joe
Hmm.
00:23:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
We've passed them with a football-esque skill, close control, and then managed... I think that's actually what came to the penalty that they conceded, was him juking them out or like get and do at the end of that run, getting knocking it past Robertson to get that penalty.
00:24:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
So yeah, I think that is actually somewhere, especially against Esther Pinyan. We know how kind of rash Esther Pinyan can be, and we know how much he struggled against very good wingers in the past. That's somewhere I actually do worry. Don't worry, you're nodding your

Global Sports Podcast Network
head, bless. Do you agree?
00:24:20
blessings
Yeah, that's definitely an area of concern because, um yeah, that Tyler Dibman has definitely got a couple of tricks up his sleeves. And if Estepinha is continuing, you know, just jumping in and not sort of judging it, then yeah, we could be in trouble. But I'll take you back to the first half at Liverpool, at Anfield. I think Estepinha was fairly aggressive with Salah and dealt with him quite well.
00:24:45
blessings
I think it's going to need a performance like that. um Obviously without switching off and Salah cut in.
00:24:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mmm, yep, pop in the last 20 minutes.
00:24:51
blessings
But um yeah, that's sort of 45 minutes of being really aggressive and not letting him turn.
00:24:53
Joe
without the gut Without letting him score.
00:24:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
and
00:25:03
blessings
Just yeah, following him, follow him wherever he goes. um Yeah, kick him a little bit.
00:25:07
Joe
Kicking him, obviously.
00:25:09
blessings
Yeah, let him know where he is.
00:25:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
you hit um either
00:25:11
Joe
Kick him a lot a bit.
00:25:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah yeah yes
00:25:13
blessings
ah lot bit yeah but don't get sent off cause he needs the the the
00:25:15
Joe
No, don't get sent off, not again.
00:25:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
but yeah not yeah
00:25:19
Joe
Yeah, yeah, Snoopy, I loves it, mate. To be honest, I don't think he's going to be cutting in those ends. Oh, that was a bit too road. I don't think he'll be in those areas very much. ah
00:25:31
Joe
yeah um because like yeah like I don't think he'll he really will be picking up in those areas very much because he does he does seem to he is because he's he obviously starts out wide but it's almost like a right midfielder position when he's picking the ball up and then his runs seem to always be is he left footed or something he's not just going yeah so he's obviously coming into his left foot but he's sort of like getting so he's central before he even gets to the edge of the box most of the time so maybe Igor should kick him I think
00:25:33
blessings
ah code switching as much
00:25:50
blessings
Yeah.
00:26:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
i said
00:26:01
blessings
Yeah, I agree with that. I think that's mainly because he's probably one of their most technical players and they've realized if we're going to get a player who's actually going to affect the game in the final third, he needs to come inside a bit more.
00:26:07
Joe
Yeah. Yeah.
00:26:12
blessings
But apart from that, I, you mentioned massage Fernandez decent, but like, Yeah, they they're quite easy to lock off if we just steal this dibbling that.
00:26:23
Joe
Hmm.
00:26:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
The thing is, they've they've got a very young squad, don't they? I mean, Dibbling's 18, Matias Fernandez is 20, and then that those are the two best players.
00:26:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm about to say they've got a very young squad, but I'm actually looking.
00:26:37
Joe
What about Harwood Belles? He's young, isn't he?
00:26:39
