and right so Today, we are going to talk about... Well, another loss, and another Bournemouth loss away.
00:01:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Unlucky. um As we said in our previous episode, we don't have a good run against Brighton, which we didn't manage to break um in the last game.
00:01:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
And we'll also talk about our next game, which we've got this Saturday already. Well, tomorrow, yeah, tomorrow. um Again, against Wolves. Now, there must be some payback coming. and I can feel it. I can feel there's a lot of rage and everything, especially because the red card.
00:02:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
And I feel like this is the moment that they have to pay. um

Right. Brighton, Bournemouth, 2-1. away I wanted to go to the game again some unplanned things happened I couldn't go and I will be going against Wolves cup game right so so hopefully we'll win and that will be yes I have to keep going to the rest of the games
00:03:06
Dan King
a like
00:03:16
Dan King
It's your fault, as we mentioned before, it's your fault. um like
00:03:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
it's always my fault right
00:03:20
Dan King
I assume you managed to watch on TV. Let's just talk about the line-up, Victor. I think um we were but mostly right. we We knew Hill was going to play right centre-back. We knew Cook was right back.
00:03:33
Dan King
Adam Centamide, Edward Christie, Brooks coming.
00:03:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, we got that. Adams Christie back. yep Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We got pretty much everything. You said that Hill is going to play as a centre-back and cook on the side.
00:03:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
um And I said the other way, if I remember well.
00:03:48
Dan King
Yeah, doesn't matter. So, what do you think? What do you think the first 10 minutes before the penalty?
VAR Controversy: Was Pedro's Penalty Justified?
00:03:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
I...
00:04:00
Dan King
I was impressed. i was impressed. i was impressed.
00:04:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah it started looking like something, i'm not going to lie. And and and and obviously, we we showed even after that we could equalise and we we didn't stop. We played, we knew what we wanted, we went there to get at least a point.
00:04:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah But yeah, that was that was unlucky. Again, a lot of speculations about that penalty. um why Why now the VAR didn't overturn it in our favour? Because that doesn't happen to Bournemouth, right?
00:04:28
Dan King
No, well, VAR isn't a supporter of a former VAR. If they were a listener, they wouldn't be listening to this today. um It's going to be interesting because I'm more of a striker, you're goalkeeper.
00:04:40
Dan King
Let's hear the goalkeeper's opinion of it first.
00:04:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think you can clearly see that Kepa stopped. Kepa stopped and Kepa even pulled a little bit to the back. So he he he basically had nothing nothing else to do. And i mean, Pedro just ran into him and and that's it. That's pretty much it. ah Clearly, yes, most of the referees are going to give it.
00:05:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
But then looking at the VAR footage and everything, it seemed like that was Pedro's intention to go for a pen rather than run past him.
00:05:11
Dan King
It's where the ball went after as well. the ball went to the right and not...
00:05:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
The ball went to the right. The ball wasn't even going towards the goal. That's correct.
00:05:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
So...
00:05:18
Dan King
Yeah.
00:05:20
Dan King
As a striker, great move. Great move. He's played the referee. He's got the free kick. Well, not the free kick, the penalty. and But our level, I don't think we've ever had VAR. So I've got away with a few of them. But I didn't actually... I thought this might be our opportunity. The VAR is going to support us.
00:05:38
Dan King
But no.
00:05:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
No. No, it didn't happen. It didn't happen. And unfortunately, you know when when you look at those two teams and obviously what the last time we've beaten them um in the Amex was 2019 5-0 win.
Brighton's Dominance: Can Bournemouth Recover?
00:05:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Since then, we didn't we we didn't beat them away.
00:05:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
and I was really hoping we could do something this game. um Especially we played the same formation, similar type of game, um pressure. and And obviously both of the teams are now fighting for Europe. Brighton did play Europe before, Bournemouth never played. So it was just one of those things. But that doesn't mean that we have to stop now. And um I think we can we can so we can still get there.
00:06:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
And i remember you saying in the last episode, like... you
00:06:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
it feels like the FA is going to be fighting for Bonwet not to go to Europe.
00:06:31
Dan King
No, what what what brings more sponsorship? That's the question, isn't it? And that's just me being a bit dubious of football money. But um I think there's other clubs that prefer ah to be in the Champions League or to be in the Europa League because it draws more money back into the Premier League, the FA Cup.
00:06:54
Dan King
Yeah. So anyway, I honestly thought, OK, great penalty by Gio Pedro. um The keeper couldn't save it. But then I thought we had a couple of chances. We started bombing on down the wing.
00:07:08
Dan King
think Semenya had a couple. Semenya wasn't as clinical as himself, but he was causing problems. There was ah there was one turning another turning moment in the game when a player went down, injured his thigh for me.
00:07:21
Dan King
When Ryan Christie went off, that's where...
00:07:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, we're all Christy, yeah. Yeah.
00:07:25
Dan King
I think I'm going to say every single episode, I am Brian Christie's biggest fan. I think I'm supporting Scotland sometimes just when he's playing.
00:07:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
but
00:07:35
Dan King
Yeah, I went down injured.
00:07:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
He plays on the left, he plays on the right.
00:07:36
Dan King
and
00:07:40
Dan King
ah He's a star, man. That's my favourite song. He's a star, man.
00:07:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
Just a Yeah.
00:07:46
Dan King
Yeah, we're not the singers. Anyway. Yeah, yeah because he was Again, and I saw the game, he was breaking up the play. He was pushing out wide. Everything, it was happening. Adams to Christie to Semenya.
00:08:03
Dan King
Then Alex Scott came on. If
00:08:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Scott wasn't that bad. I think he... I mean...
00:08:10
Dan King
you if you have an op opportunity, well, it's obviously mix of views, but um online, he's... um Many people have gone with the same opinion as me.
00:08:21
Dan King
He's a luxury player. He doesn't fit Eroda's style. he's not The second goal was Scott's fault for not following his man.
00:08:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
for non-following.
00:08:30
Dan King
and
00:08:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
And I think you said that in the last episode as well, that he's one of them, yeah, players that doesn't,
00:08:35
Dan King
And we, at Rola, is the Bournemouth team all about everyone in it together. And um there's times where he he's just losing the ball too many times. He's got some brilliance in i'm not going to know he's got any brilliance.
00:08:47
Dan King
And I'm sure um he's probably going to get better over the years. But at this point where we are in our league position, we're not but near the bottom team.
00:08:58
Dan King
We are looking for consistency in points. Yeah.
00:09:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:09:03
Dan King
i just I just feel there's a real difference and maybe I'm just too much of a Ryan Christie fan, but i just can't see how Alex Scott fits into this team. You've got Justin Clivett now.
00:09:14
Dan King
Wow, we'll go on to the goal in minute. His work rate is phenomenal. I think I
00:09:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, no, he's, yeah, he's, he's,
00:09:23
Dan King
i was a bit disappointed with David Brooks this game and he got subbed off, of course. Yeah.
00:09:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think Evan Nilsson should have come on a bit earlier, but maybe he's not ready yet.
00:09:33
Dan King
He can't be fit enough. No. What do you think? What do you think of? So, challenge me in my opinion, Alex Scott, what do you think of him?
00:09:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't know. i Well, did we have anyone else to play in that position? I mean, Ben Winterburn, who hasn't really got that much experience.
00:09:53
Dan King
No.
00:09:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
So, you know.
00:09:55
Dan King
You've got Julie, you could have brought Sol Aaron, put Lewis Cook in there, play him out of position, fall back. Um,
00:10:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, but Soler is the left back. I don't think he ever played right back.
00:10:07
Dan King
No, he hasn't. but there's there's that that I guess so, yeah. um There's talks about maybe just changing the formation around, putting Brooksy in the middle.
00:10:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
i again Again, red card. I i don't know. Red card from the last game costed us probably this game as well. And
00:10:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
and and especially, you know, well... We appealed against it. Nothing happened. If it was a bigger club, we we know what would happen. And
00:10:35
Dan King
Well, very similar to Arsenal 1, they appealed and Arsenal won it. We didn't. I said in the last episode that it's just how can a player who won the ball, no malicious attempt, be basically suspended for four games because he got sent off right near the beginning of that game.
00:10:51
Dan King
um Yeah, a bit challenging. and As the game went on half-time, what were your thoughts, Victor? Victor?
00:11:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
but i um I thought Irelia would probably carry on with pressing and and probably try to equalise and then pull back, park the bus and then save that point you know um to try and and and get the best out of it. But
Bournemouth's Gameplay and Player Analysis
00:11:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
obviously, well three minutes later, Danny Welbeck did what he used to do back in the days in in Man United and yeah, it was just unlucky.
00:11:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
I mean, their goalkeeper was on on top as well, but Bruggemann, he had some amazing saves um and yeah, it was, it was not our day.
00:11:35
Dan King
I thought we were tied. I think you speak about us missing players. I think that Danny Welbeck goal, I felt for James Hill, I thought James Welbeck was doing really well, 50, 60 minutes.
00:11:46
Dan King
But remember, he's only just came back. He's just had a game on the weekend. He's played longer than they expected. He looked really, and I didn't think we had any other options to go centre-back.
00:11:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, he looked fatigued, yeah.
00:11:56
Dan King
And that was a fatigue goal.
00:11:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:11:58
Dan King
But you can't help thinking, can you, as it's going through? That wouldn't happen with Sabani there.
00:12:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, i i I mean, they had, I think, a couple more chances. Ruter was one-on-one with the keeper as well, and it's...
00:12:11
Dan King
Thank you.
00:12:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
you know and and ah To be honest with you, before the game, I thought that Ruter was going to score first before Jean-Pierre. Ruter is an astonishing player. ah and i um I can't remember if I said it in the the pre-match report, but when we did But you never know which foot is he going to use. like he's He's amazing with both feet.
00:12:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
He's a crazy player. Crazy player. um And yeah. yeah it's just you know it's The more I want to talk about it, the more I think about it, the more sad I become. and you know I want to stay excited to talk about the Wolves game that we've got um ah ahead of us and and you know dive into it with as much positivity as I can.
00:12:59
Dan King
Before you do that, I'd like to ask you one thing that you needed to change. This is a teacher in me. One thing that needs to change from that game and one positive.
00:13:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
from the Brighton game to Wolves game.
00:13:09
Dan King
And you can't say, yep.
00:13:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh.
00:13:12
Dan King
yet
00:13:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, well, our views are different, right? ah I would say I'd probably now, seeing that Sinistera gives a lot.
00:13:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'll try to start with Sinny instead of Brooks. um Because you can see that Brooks has dropped not just in the last game, in the last two, three games. is you know um He used the time well when people got injured.
00:13:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah But let's say since Tav came back, it's it's you know it's not it's it's not that Brooks anymore. And this is the problem. that Where is the consistency? like Before Sinistero got injured, he had the consistency as well.
00:13:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
And he he could easily make that impact. And I was talking about it in in in our first episodes when we would see Sinistera coming off the bench and then sort of, you know, giving like 120% and then seeing seeing the sort of whole team pressing for one player.
00:14:09
Dan King
What thing would you not change? right
00:14:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
And, you know, the so the yeah, probably this is the thing I would change. I will start with Sinistera.
00:14:22
Dan King
what thing we need
00:14:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
Would love to see
00:14:22
Dan King
what thing would you not change
00:14:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
What thing will they not change?
00:14:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, now we have to think that Christie might not be fit.
00:14:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
And this is, you know, this is, if we were,
00:14:37
Dan King
Are you going to put Alex Scott and Tyler Adams together?
00:14:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
but do we have anyone else?
00:14:43
Dan King
No. Wow. Change formation, possibly.
00:14:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
Did they all change formations since the beginning of the Premier League?
00:14:51
Dan King
I'll just chuck something else in there. I don't know. Lewis Cook? Lewis Cook here.
00:14:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, but then you you need you need someone on the right, not left back on the right side.
00:15:01
Dan King
Hmm.
00:15:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
Or you think Dango can play right back as well?
00:15:03
Dan King
Well, exactly. Tavernier. Damanen's played right back for us, like his brother. um Yeah.
00:15:12
Dan King
Interesting.
00:15:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
it's it's It's really a tough one. We haven't got that squad depth, right? So we could think, okay, we are Man City. We have three players in each position that are high quality.
00:15:20
Dan King
it's
00:15:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
We haven't got that. um i would i'm not gonna lie my person i would love to see a change information because i've never seen an iraula playing anything apart from four two three one so i would like to see how that will work maybe i don't know four one two one two but then again we have the wingers we have to use the wingers so maybe four two one three i don't know or four one two one two it's
00:15:42
Dan King
Mm-hmm.
00:15:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
it's that There's so many formations that, you know, but it it all depends like how players fit.
00:16:00
Dan King
Speaking about somebody returning, Evan Nilsson, I know he's only on the game ah for a short time, but i I think he really changed it a little bit. um He just was able to spin players a little bit better than Dango could.
00:16:13
Dan King
Dango's obviously done a great job.
00:16:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
And it was unlucky that that that that rebound went between his legs. I mean...
00:16:18
Dan King
ah At the other point, I don't know if you've seen it, but Aroda have talked about it after the game. he's The handball. You see the handball? You may have not. um It was part of his press conference after.
00:16:29
Dan King
And think a bit it hit Van Hex's hand.
00:16:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
No.
00:16:33
Dan King
We had a shot, hit Van Hex's hand. going It was going in goal, but the VAR didn't get involved because too close. But it was if it didn't hit his hand, it was a goal. So um it's just interesting as well, these type of things. if that And then Rola did speak about it.
00:16:51
Dan King
If that was any other team, that would be all over the media.
00:16:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. Yeah, it's it seems like Bournemouth is always playing against someone plus the VAR.
00:16:56
Dan King
Yeah.
00:17:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
And it's you know it makes the whole situation tougher. But then when we win, it feels
00:17:03
Dan King
Yeah.
Strategic Reflections and Future Changes
00:17:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
sweeter. i don't know. but What do you think?
00:17:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
Because you've beaten two.
00:17:15
Dan King
its been over It's been over a week since we've won. You know, I've got to this ah period of just winning every week. It's it's been hard. Two games.
00:17:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
but But that's not because when we have expectations, that's not good. When you have expectations and someone doesn't meet your expectations, you get disappointed. So it's better not to have any and just go with the floor.
00:17:37
Dan King
Is that, yeah we're not all about your dating life here, Victor, but no, I do understand.
00:17:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. but
00:17:43
Dan King
I do understand.
00:17:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
No. Right. Well, let's finish with the Brighton game because i'm I'm really starting to get annoyed more and more with things. And yeah, we're starting starting to talk about my private life and we don't want that in our podcast.
00:17:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
But let's go for a quick break first and we'll be back shortly. Thanks for listening.
Optimism for Upcoming Wolves Match
00:19:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
Right. So not looking back anymore. Right. We're going to leave the past behind.
00:19:16
Dan King
Don't look back in anger. That's what Oasis said.
00:19:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
no no, no. Try to learn. Try to learn and always hope for the best in the future. um Wolves, again, i think i think we're definitely winning this one.
00:19:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think we're going through. it's This is the time now where we can make something. um And obviously Wolves, the situation they're in, trying to stay in the Prem making sure they will stay.
00:19:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
i I'm not saying this going to easy game, right?
00:19:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah But I expect to see more goals than in the last game.
00:19:50
Dan King
Let's hope so. Let's hope so. ah But I don't think the television companies are feeling that confident. It's the only game which is not being shown on TV of all the FA Cup games.
00:20:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I mean, they're bloody showing even Crystal Palace middle wall, I know. But...
00:20:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
I know, I know.
00:20:08
Dan King
I told you. VAR. VAR.
00:20:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
vi but Yeah, yeah.
00:20:11
Dan King
They're telling us not to put it on.
00:20:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
Is that the reason why? Well, we're going to be VAR from the stadium because I'm going be recording every bloody single second of the game and just keep rewinding um if there's any yeah yeah weird situation.
00:20:22
Dan King
you
00:20:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
But no, I think i think we... this This is now our breaking point, our turning point. We we have to win this. We have to win this. um Get into into the quarterfinals. um And maybe even with the FA Cup, why why not?
00:20:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
Why not? Why not?
00:20:47
Dan King
hu ah Well, I think they need to fight back. I think the game before with the red card or just the loss and I don't like the the conversations between the players.
00:21:01
Dan King
i think Bournemouth want to get their own back on them. I think they're to be motivated for this game.
00:21:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, definitely. That's why I think, especially because, I mean, ah back in the in in the beginning of the season, we've seen similar situation where Arsenal was playing in vitality.
00:21:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
They got the red card around 30th minute and we won 2-0. um And it was pretty much the same now, but just the other way. It's, you know, Bournemouth got the red card and that's it. Wolves, well I'm not going to lie, but Wolves was better.
00:21:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
Obviously, they had an extra player and they used it.
00:21:36
Dan King
They just controlled the game. They controlled the game.
00:21:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
They controlled the game.
00:21:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
They did. they
00:21:39
Dan King
I think it was us.
00:21:40
Dan King
though They were better because we didn't have a plan B for 10 men.
00:21:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
No. No. No. And...
00:21:49
Dan King
We're just high press. I say just. We are beautiful at pressing together as a team. 11 players. We all press together. The goalie even presses at times, I feel. But we know the centrebacks some the centre-backs push up most of the time more than anybody else to press.
00:22:06
Dan King
and We saw a game when we we watched it on. I know we're moving on from the Brighton game, but Halson was pressing. There's times when he was in the box more than our midfielders, our wingers. That's great.
00:22:17
Dan King
um So when you get one in one player sent off, it really does affect
Impact of Key Players' Return
00:22:20
Dan King
it. But we're not. We're going to start with 11 and we're going to stay with 11. And we have some players who probably are itching to prove their self.
00:22:30
Dan King
Sinistera. I think Brooks might be, he knows, he he's might be a bit frustrated. He got dropped at half-time. He might have something to prove. ah just And then we've got Evan Nilsson, almost back.
00:22:43
Dan King
I don't think he'll start, though. What do you think?
00:22:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
It all depends how he feels. i'd I'd love to see him start. If not fit, I believe he will get his chance from the second half. Hopefully, Dango will score by the half-time.
00:23:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
So then Irola wouldn't... He'll be in doubt what to do, right? Yeah.
00:23:08
Dan King
If not, Clive at a school couple of worldies for us, like he did.
00:23:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
If not, Clive, yeah. would be I mean, he had a couple of chances as well against against Brighton, but was just unlucky. It wasn't the day. It wasn't meant to be. It wasn't meant to be, and that's it. But that's why we need to look forward to this game, and I'm sure the atmosphere in the stadium will be great as usual.
00:23:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
um All the tickets are sold out. So, you know, even even if the weather is going to be awful, I know that the stadium will be full. And, yeah, i'm I'm really looking forward to be there.
00:23:43
Dan King
What do you um think the score is going to be Victor?
00:23:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, I said there will be more goals and I think 3-1. 3-1 tomorrow. 3-1 to Bournemouth.
00:23:58
Dan King
I'm going to go 3-2. 3-2. 2, Bournemouth.
00:24:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
cool Oh, right. Okay.
00:24:05
Dan King
i'm good I'm going, I just, ah only because I couldn't go the same as 3-1, but i i would have went through one um
00:24:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
You can always say so. Why not?
00:24:13
Dan King
Well, okay, I'm going to go for 3-1. We're both going for it um I think, I think Sinistera one that will really trouble him, push him back if he plays.
00:24:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
He might start. he He looked well in the last game. He might start. I'd like to see him start because when you think, like, um obviously, Tav's been injured and he came back, but it's a it feels like he's not 100% the Tav that used to be before the injury.
00:24:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
Bruxy, as we mentioned, the last two, three games, he wasn't really... doing his job, um as he knows, and the thinking of, you know, well, Clive has got to start.
00:24:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
um who Semenya has got to be on the left or on the right. um And then that second winger, probably, my opinion, Sinistera to start with. um I have a feeling like if Evan Nilsson plays a half-time, he'll score.
00:25:14
Dan King
Or what I found with um Evan Nielsen Gives the menu more space i think I feel like Evan Nilsson not only comes towards the ball really well, but he spins off. say Whereas with Dango, from what I've been watching, is they've been keeping very close.
00:25:32
Dan King
and The space between Semenya and Dango isn't as great as whenever Evan Nilsson Evan Nilsson does so much off the ball as well, which creates that space for other players.
00:25:43
Dan King
and I think there's no surprise Semenya had a great um goal ratio when Evan Nilsson plays.
00:25:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, there there was, if I remember before Evan Nilsson's injury, there were six games where where, in all six games, Semenyo was involved, whether with an assist or a goal, but it was six games in a row.
00:26:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
um And you could think, yeah, maybe with Evan Nilsson's return, maybe Semenyo will start shining again. I'm sure it's there, you know, it's there. It's there. It just needs to come. Yeah.
00:26:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
um
00:26:17
Dan King
I love him. I love watching him. and i did The thing that's missing is is finishing the last few games, but he's still strong. He's still getting past players. He's lacking that a bit of confidence, but I'm going to put him to school first.
00:26:31
Dan King
Semenyo.
00:26:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
right okay another two
00:26:35
Dan King
The other two. Semenyo. Two Semenyo. One Nilsson when he comes on. What
00:26:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
right okay okay okay oh well i'd love to see kirker scoring because when he scores that's something special right um
00:26:45
Dan King
about yourself, Victor?
00:26:54
Dan King
Yes.
00:26:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
So, so so yeah yeah, maybe why not? Maybe maybe we see Kierke scoring him for the weekend um again. um Even the assist, I would be happy. had two assists against Man City. He was the man of the match for me.
00:27:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
um ah But, yeah, I'd love to see Kierke scoring. um I think we're going to score one from from the corner kick, from the set piece, one of the goals. Maybe Halston.
00:27:19
Dan King
I hope so because I'll be honest our corners the last few weeks and people have been commenting have we are we taken away our corner coach tactician have we used all our corner routines up because they haven't been the best they haven't been the best crosses so I'll be happy if that happens
00:27:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hmm.
00:27:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
They haven't been the best. no No. No.
00:27:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
No. and No, it's... um Yeah, I think i think maybe Halston, but I have feeling we're going to score from the set piece. um And yeah, I think Semenya might get on the score sheet.
00:27:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
um I think it will be very important on how we start the game again. it would be great to see a red card on the other side now, you know?
00:28:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
what it was because it's always, it's always,
00:28:03
Dan King
Will there be VAR though? don't know. Is there a VAR in this round?
00:28:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think from the next round, I think from the quarterfinals, I'm, I'm not hundred percent
VAR's Role and Maintaining Player Discipline
00:28:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
sure.
00:28:12
Dan King
You can see it, can't you?
00:28:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
Probably,
00:28:14
Dan King
We're going to be going, we wish we had VAR. Yeah.
00:28:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
probably, probably, yeah probably some of our listeners know better, but, uh, yeah, regarding VR, I'm not gonna lie if don't have the real information. Um, Yeah, probably Google find out.
00:28:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
But, ah you know, it's I think it's gonna this game is going to look a bit easier, a little bit easier in terms of having full 11 and keeping full 11, as you mentioned earlier.
00:28:31
Dan King
you
00:28:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Just trying, you know, trying our best. And um if we score first, that's it. We won the game. And I think that ah that is going to happen on on Saturday.
00:29:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
Now, before we do the squad prediction and slowly finish for today, we're just going to go for another quick ad break from our sponsors and we'll be back.
00:30:11
Dan King
So yeah, you can have VAR. We do have VAR and we've got, yep, and we have the new ah line lines, automatic offside lines.
00:30:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
We don't have VAR.
00:30:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, let's hope VAR, if used, will be in our favor tomorrow because i'm I'm really fed up with VAR just overturning decisions against us. And yeah, but let's focus on the positives. Right. So we pretty much did go through the
Speculating Bournemouth's Starting Lineup
00:30:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
starting 11. Uh,
00:30:41
Dan King
He
00:30:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah Obviously, Kepa will start. um I think the back four, same. Same as in the last game against Brighton.
00:30:51
Dan King
might you might try the new guy from America, the DC United player. and We signed him, but he's been on the bench the last few games, but I can't see that too much of a big game for us.
00:31:07
Dan King
I think we...
00:31:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
but' still He's 18 years old. He's still young.
00:31:10
Dan King
Yeah, but look, Kirk, the others are only 19. Halston's only 19.
00:31:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
I know. i know. I know. I know. I know. But Hausson came from Juventus, right? And then the other guys, they all came from playing European football. And I'm not saying MLS is a bad league, but, you know.
00:31:29
Dan King
You're just saying it's not very good league. So anyway, moving on, moving on, just in the case, ah before we get into the ah debate about different leagues.
00:31:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's not...
00:31:38
Dan King
um Yeah, we have. The question is, so I want to know who's going to play centre mid. If he's fit, Ryan Christie and Adams are playing together. Let's say Christie's not fit.
00:31:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think it's going to be Scott. It has to be Scott. I can't... I don't know. I said I'd love to see the change in formation, but I can't see it happening. So it's got to be Scott because you haven't got anyone else. to you know And if you would leave the Scott out, especially after the injury, after spending that much money to buy him, how would that affect him? you know
00:32:14
Dan King
Yeah. Hmm.
00:32:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
Because you're not going to put a player that's worth six hundred k to start before the 23 million guy?
00:32:23
Dan King
where Where you don't think Ben Winterburn will start?
00:32:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't think so, no. not not not Not before Scott.
00:32:28
Dan King
He started last FA Cup game, remember, and against Everton.
00:32:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, but Alex Scott was injured.
00:32:35
Dan King
Fair point.
00:32:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
We didn't really have solutions, did we?
00:32:39
Dan King
Hmm. I don't know. if we're I'm hoping... Next time on here, I'll be eating my words and being going, Alex Scott, I love you. But at the moment, I'm a bit concerned. I need to see a bit more effort. So if any if he's listening, I think you've got the talent.
00:32:54
Dan King
I don't think you've got the mentality of the rest of the players yet.
00:32:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
He'll get there. He'll get there. He's still young. He's still a kid. You're the teacher. Come on. You're a teacher, mate. You've got to understand.
00:33:04
Dan King
He isn't young. he's He's a senior, probably compared to Howson.
00:33:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Okay, right. So moving on to the forward three. Well, midfielders slash wingers. So we're going to have probably Kluivert again in the middle. Now I'll say Semenyo and Sinistera to start with.
00:33:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah and then go up front if ever somehow it's not going to be 100%
00:33:29
Dan King
I feel my team, I've said it briefly, i would put, maybe agree with the Ben Winterburn, I feel like putting Adams and David Brooks in the middle.
00:33:41
Dan King
David Brooks has been played centre mid before, played it for Wales, played it for Sheffield United, played it for Bournemouth before, not under this management. Then put Semenu in, I agree Sinistera and probably it will be Dango.
00:33:56
Dan King
um just I like to chuck a curve ball fall out there.
00:33:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm sorry, I can't see Brooks playing CDM.
00:34:03
Dan King
But CDM, centre mid. Scott doesn't play. Ty Adams does all the CDMing you need.
00:34:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, yeah, well, Scott is a bit in front of him.
00:34:10
Dan King
He plays.
00:34:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, that's true. But I think Brooks, I don't know, he...
00:34:17
Dan King
Oh, Tavernier. Tavernier is the other one he might play in there. Tavernier played it for Middlesbrough. Centre mid. He's played one or two games. It's centre mid for us, but it didn't work under other management.
00:34:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
Thalvin is definitely better defensively in comparison to Brooksy, if you ask me. ah But it's still a bit way off the proper midfielder, you know, running box to box. and um but then
00:34:41
Dan King
That's my criticism of Alex Scott.
00:34:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, let's like let's just hope Christie will be fit and k Christie will start because we need our number 10, yeah. And...
00:34:52
Dan King
You have to message me. is it see my I'll send you my excited face if he's on the team, OK? Because, you know, i think we're going to win by more than 3-1 if he's in there.
00:35:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Christy.
00:35:04
Dan King
Yeah.
00:35:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, let's hope so. Fingers crossed. Fingers crossed. And I think on that note, we can positively finish our episode for today. ah Thank you so much for joining me.
00:35:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
um I'll be seeing you tomorrow. um If things go as planned.
00:35:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah But until then, thank you much thank you so much, everyone, for listening. Hope you enjoyed our episode. Well, two episodes in one. um And then we'll be back in the next couple of days to record a post-match, happily post-match versus Wolves.
