Introduction and Hosts' Background

00:00:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hello and welcome to the Daily Brighton podcast. It's your boy, the big JG, Jamie G. I'm joined by Joe Richardson. Joe, how are we doing?
00:00:20
Joe
I'm absolutely fantastic, mate. Just living my best life right now. It's half-term, so I'm not working. um
00:00:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, that's a dream.
00:00:28
Joe
We'd love to see it, mate. It's a week off.
00:00:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's unfortunately for you school guys.
00:00:32
Joe
Yeah.
00:00:35
Global Sports Podcast Network

00:00:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
I still am working, unfortunately.
00:00:39
Joe
Yeah.
00:00:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
How annoying is that?
00:00:39
Joe
news needse News needs to be delivered, mate.
00:00:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
24-7. The cycle never stops.
00:00:44
Joe
ah yeah yeah
00:00:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
Even how bad the news might be sometimes.
00:00:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
But yeah, ah well, I get to get away from the news slightly and do come on here and do some podcasts about a team that we both love. And we get to do wildcard Wednesdays.
00:01:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
We've missed doing these.
00:01:04
Joe
Your favorite, mate.
00:01:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's been
00:01:05
Joe
Your favorite.
00:01:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, these are

Wildcard Wednesdays and Hot Takes Revival

00:01:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
my favourite. Just absolutely waffling about Brighton and coming up with some random ideas that we could actually discuss like we do quite often.
00:01:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
um ah This week, we have got hot takes because I looked up the last hot takes that we did. We loved doing it last time. We thought we and it went quite well.
00:01:15
Joe
yeah
00:01:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
We ah came up with some outrageous ones and the people seem to agree and also disagree with them on our socials.
00:01:29
Joe
Really? 75? Definitely. 75 is madness, mate.
00:01:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
And our reactions to our podcast. So I thought we'd bring it back. It has been 75 episodes since we last did. I know. We need to start doing these more often, I reckon.
00:01:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Because
00:01:47
Joe
definitely seventy five is madness man
00:01:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
when we last did it, yeah, when we last did it, um we were flirting with Champions League.
00:01:50
Joe
once a month surely
00:01:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm pretty sure we were in the Champions League spots. So ah the times have changed.
00:02:01
Joe
yeah I can imagine some of the things we were saying. it mad way It's mad, mate.
00:02:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
oh
00:02:05
Joe
Just for context, i don't I can't remember the last hot takes.

Reflecting on Past Hot Takes

00:02:10
Joe
So I can't wait to hear what I said because this could be such cat.
00:02:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
i mean, that was there was some glazing.
00:02:14
Joe
And it's in 4K. there so
00:02:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
they're they're in There was some glazing going on, I'll tell you that. We were we were big on praise of our players.
00:02:22
Joe
There's some gal glazing. No.
00:02:27
Joe
Okay. Okay.
00:02:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
Safe to say that praise has slightly petered out.
00:02:33
Joe
OK.
00:02:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's coming up a little bit, but it's peaked out a little bit.
00:02:37
Joe
I think I remembered what i said now little bit.
00:02:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Well, the first segment we're going to be talking about are old hot takes and how they've aged. Have they aged like milk or have they aged like fine wine?
00:02:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah In the second segment, we'll talk about my hot take now. And then in the third, we'll go over Joe's. But I guess we'll start with the man that wasn't here. He was one that kicked it off last time.
00:03:01
Joe
Yeah. Oh, God.
00:03:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
So, yeah um There was one quote first one quote that I listened to the podcast today.
00:03:07
Joe
Oh, no.
00:03:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
Blessings said, this wasn't his hot take in itself, but this is part of his hot take. Dunk, we know he's a special player and he's phenomenal.
00:03:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
Jesus Christ.
00:03:27
Joe
is that actual Is that an actual quote?
00:03:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
not That's what he actually said. Yep.
00:03:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
That was part of the hot take. That was awful. But his actual hot take was, there's no one in our team that can live up.
00:03:36
Joe
Oh my God.
00:03:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
And if Van Hecker and Dunk get injured, there's no one that can step up to the plate. I think we quickly realised Dunk does not deserve to be in that conversation. Anyone can step up over Lewis Dunk.
00:03:52
Joe
No.
00:03:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
And we saw that with Webster's performance just at the weekend.
00:03:58
Joe
That is such a bad take. He's like wrong on everything because insane. It is insane. I'm trying to think of like what game week that would have been there if it was so long ago.
00:04:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
So that was that was after the Man United performance. um And he was talking about like early in the season. I think we were five games in.
00:04:17
Joe
United was the second game, wasn't it
00:04:21
Joe
At the Amex, I'm certain that was the second game.
00:04:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, i did feel like that. feel like the second game. Or maybe it was like a couple of weeks after that.
00:04:27
Joe
Oh, was it Arsenal? Arsenal? Because obviously Dunk had done the long ball, innit?
00:04:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, the assist. Yeah.
00:04:32
Joe
yeah yeah Yeah, that would actually that would check out.
00:04:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
feel like it was around that yeah around that time anyway, because he was referencing Man United and how we well the pair played against them. But yeah, his take was basically, there's no one to step up.
00:04:45
Joe
That's stinky.
00:04:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
And Dunk got injured. Eagle was better than Dunk. Dunk's been injured again. Eagle got injured. Dunk's got his place back. Dunk's got a little knock.
00:04:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
Webster's stepped up and been better than Dunk as well. So... oh I'm still waiting for this cash-in bloke to come in and be better than him already.
00:05:06
Joe
Yeah. And be better than Dunk. Yeah. Oh, dear.
00:05:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
Dunk is fifth in the charts of like what where I would go to.
00:05:11
Joe
Do
00:05:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'd even put Belieber as centre-back before I put Dunk in there.
00:05:19
Joe
you know what's the funniest thing about that? Is that, like, I know, so currently, Bless is living his life in Germany, right? he's he's We've sent him to go out scout that Simass bloke.
00:05:29
Joe
Yeah. And he, if he was here in on this pod, I know for a fact that he would still be defending himself.
00:05:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
I know, was literally thinking wasn't it a couple weeks ago when he was saying I think we're just being harsh on Dunk we aren't being harsh on Dunk he's ass
00:05:47
Joe
No, no. Yeah, don't put this on himself.
00:05:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
no offence I love him but please retire I've said that months ago might have said that when he announced this yeah
00:05:52
Joe
He did.
00:05:55
Joe
No.
00:05:59
Joe
He might have said that on the episode. Jesus Christ.
00:06:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:06:02
Joe
Yeah, that's pretty stinky.
00:06:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah But yeah, that's so that's aged like milk, quite frankly, because Dunk can be replaced quite comfortably.
00:06:05
Joe
Mm-hmm.
00:06:09
Joe
yeah ahs pretty stinky
00:06:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think I could probably step in and replace Dunk. So that's not a great take, but we have all fallen victim because I'll go with mine next since we're along the same lines.
00:06:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
I... This is... Yeah, it's not looking good for me. i said Van Hecker will be a Hands down starter for the Netherlands in the World Cup.
00:06:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
Quite frankly, he started the season phenomenally.
00:06:39
Joe
hat yeah he did
00:06:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
And Jesus, he has not looked good. After the 7-0, I thought, well, that is... I remember that hot take at the 7-0 loss to Nottingham Forest. And I thought, good God, this has not been this is not looking good on me.
00:06:56
Joe
did in that episode did we say you listen to the whole thing did I say i think it depends on the injuries or did I just agree
00:07:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hmm.
00:07:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah you yeah you brought up Hayto, which he's having a apparently a phenomenal season for Ajax.
00:07:11
Joe
Yeah. Yeah, let's not allow me to watch.
00:07:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
And he will... Yeah. yeah So he'll be a 20, I think, when the World Cup comes around next season. So that is competition to worry about. And then I think Van Hecker...
00:07:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, the episode i mentioned that, Van Hecker had just got a position into the Nations League because...
00:07:34
Joe
But that was through Van der Ven being injured.
00:07:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
Van der Ven got injured and that's when you said it depends whether Van der Ven will be injured or not yeah I think he's probably about 30 maybe if
00:07:36
Joe
Yeah. Yeah.
00:07:42
Joe
Yeah, because it's too, I feel like it's too close for the old guard to not go. so like, I feel like Ake, I don't even know how old Ake is, he can't be you can't be that old, to be fair.
00:07:54
Joe
Yeah, like, I feel like you'd still want to go with the experience, like, I still believe that Van Dijk's going like, captain, like, and, like, do you take, like, Deleer?
00:08:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
hmm
00:08:03
Joe
I don't think he's been playing for them much recently, but, like, I don't think that... I think Van Hecker is better than De Litt, but, like, I feel like De Litt has so much more experience in that setting, so it's just like...
00:08:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. And I think he's so popular in the Netherlands, De Ligt, because he played for Ajax.
00:08:21
Joe
Yeah.
00:08:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
And he came through when he was like 17 in the semis for the Champions League.
00:08:21
Joe
Yeah.
00:08:24
Joe
Yeah.
00:08:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
so it's gonna be
00:08:27
Joe
Hmm.
00:08:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
And he has actually not been too bad this season, De Ligt. Like, he's very aggressive. I think at the time i was cooking, De Ligt.
00:08:32
Joe
Hmm.
00:08:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
I was like, I think me and you were both saying, that we weren't too sure on how good he actually was. And i think he's like, all right.
00:08:41
Joe
I mean, it hasn't worked out in like multiple big places isn't it so far.
00:08:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:08:45
Joe
Yeah.
00:08:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
But he's been all right this season, to be fair.
00:08:45
Joe
What was it?
00:08:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
And where...
00:08:48
Joe
Juventus and Bayern? Yeah.
00:08:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
And where De Ligt's got better, I think Van Hecker's got worse. So so yeah we'll see next season. But yeah, that wasn't the best take from me. And then Joe, you want to hear yours, since you don't remember?
00:09:04
Joe
I felt like it was about the labour.
00:09:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
It wasn't. It was about his partner the last two games, Jack Hinchelwood.
00:09:08
Joe
it wasn't.

Current Player Evaluations and Comparisons

00:09:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
And you said he's not...
00:09:12
Joe
all right
00:09:15
Joe
Oh, I remember being harsh about him.
00:09:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
Do you remember? Yeah.
00:09:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
you you are You said he isn't in the top five youngsters in our squad. And then we started listing some players. And I won't lie, I did agree with you at the time.
00:09:18
Joe
Yeah.
00:09:28
Joe
I
00:09:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
So I'm also guilty of this take.
00:09:31
Joe
i still but i still back it, to be fair. Oh,
00:09:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
You named... Well, I've jumped off your ship, I won't lie, because Belieber, that we agreed, obviously, hands down.
00:09:39
Joe
okay. That's fair.
00:09:43
Joe
Confirmed, yeah.
00:09:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
Ruta, hands down.
00:09:46
Joe
Yeah.
00:09:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah And then it starts getting a bit techy.
00:09:50
Joe
Did we not say Van Hecker?
00:09:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Adingra, well, I think he was, think, no, I think he was like 23, 24.
00:09:54
Joe
He's 21, isn't he? 22, isn't he?
00:09:58
Joe
Is he? Yeah.
00:09:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think we said under 22s. I can't remember, actually.
00:10:01
Joe
I'm the 22. I'm reaching so hard.
00:10:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:10:04
Joe
That's not even a thing. That's literally not a thing.
00:10:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
it you Might been under 23.
00:10:06
Joe
Jesus.
00:10:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm not actually sure.
00:10:10
Joe
Jesus.
00:10:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
But we didn't mention but ah Van Hecker anyway.
00:10:12
Joe
Okay.
00:10:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah But we did mention Odingra. And he's not had a great season.
00:10:17
Joe
ah feel like I feel like he is, but he's just I just don't think it's ah don't think it's right. the
00:10:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's not here.
00:10:23
Joe
like what it's not No, it's not here.
00:10:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hmm.
00:10:26
Joe
But I'm relatively confident he'll have a better career than Hinchel would. like
00:10:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hmm.
00:10:32
Joe
Even if it's away from... I maybe should have said away from Brighton, which I definitely didn't say. But like I feel like he could. Did I say in CISO I still back that 100%?
00:10:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
and
00:10:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
And see, so you did say, yeah, yeah.
00:10:44
Joe
Yeah.
00:10:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
And I, I think and see, so is a better player, more creative player than Hinchwood, but they're so different.
00:10:45
Joe
Yeah.
00:10:48
Joe
They're very different.
00:10:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:10:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's, that's where I was about to go with that.
00:10:53
Joe
Yeah.
00:10:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
They're so different. I think Hinchwood is, I quite, I've grown to like Hinchwood. Like remember at the start of the season, we hated him because he was playing fullback.
00:10:55
Joe
Yeah.
00:11:04
Joe
I was thinking he's so average.
00:11:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think heat that's average is sometimes like good enough. You know what mean?
00:11:10
Joe
Yeah.
00:11:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
we are We're a Brighton.
00:11:11
Joe
Yeah.
00:11:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
we're not ah crazy We're not a team that are like... I don't ever see him being a Champions League player. like And I don't think we that's my expectation for him.
00:11:20
Joe
Yeah.
00:11:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think that's why I'm actually calling on the idea of not rating him. Because I'm like, he's like a perfectly fine player. I don't think he'll be a superstar.
00:11:30
Joe
Yeah.
00:11:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think he can have a long Premier League career. But just at the mid... table level. Maybe like even the promotion relegation level.
00:11:41
Joe
yeah
00:11:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
But I think he's like, ah he keeps it ticking. And I think he will only get better. And the other couple players that you mentioned, Minta, who is coming on strong. So I agree with that one still.
00:11:52
Joe
I feel like I'm still... I've got like four here. I feel like I'm still on.
00:11:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, I'm not giving you a... Oh, well, actually, yeah, and Seesaw, I guess, as well.
00:11:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
And then the other one I don't agree with. And that's because we've not really seen much of him, is Gruder.
00:11:59
Joe
Yeah.
00:12:05
Joe
Do I not say Buonanotte?
00:12:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
But No, I think because he was at
00:12:09
Joe
Well, you can fucking add him in. Oh, I just swore again. Jesus. You can add him in there, mate. Yeah. Obviously, I feel very strongly about this. I keep doing that.
00:12:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, Jesus.
00:12:20
Joe
but
00:12:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:12:21
Joe
Yeah, i get Guernanotti in now.
00:12:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
Added, listened and noted.
00:12:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
hope you got that message, guys.
00:12:31
Joe
How is Joe Pedro?
00:12:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
23. ah twenty sorry
00:12:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, God, how old is he?
00:12:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I think 23. Yeah, I
00:12:39
Joe
I mean, I feel like I'm still right.
00:12:41
Joe
you could just chop and change your players around. I feel like you I'm still there or thereabouts.
00:12:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
don't know why we didn't mention. dr Maybe we thought Jao Pedro is just too good of a mention. Or maybe he just didn't.
00:12:50
Joe
Well, potentially, yeah.
00:12:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
Maybe it was under 21, so I don't know.
00:12:53
Joe
Yeah, maybe.
00:12:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah yeah.
00:12:55
Joe
but it was under 21s because I remember looking it up.
00:12:58
Global Sports Podcast Network
Okay.
00:12:58
Joe
Yeah, yeah.
00:13:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Then we've got...
00:13:00
Joe
It's
00:13:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
But yeah, I mean, it's not ah not a terrible take, I must say.
00:13:04
Joe
the best. It's the best out the three.
00:13:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's the best out of them, yeah.
00:13:06
Joe
It's the best of a bad bunch.
00:13:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
it And on that note, get ready for our next question we'll take.
00:13:13
Joe
Oh, no. Here go.
00:13:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
We'll start with me with the next after this quick ad.
00:13:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
And we are back with a Daily Brighton podcast. So it's time for my hot take. And my hot take as of the 18th of February is um'm I've gone outrageous.
00:14:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
I have thought big and I am not holding back.
00:14:08
Joe
Okay.
00:14:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
And I'm going to own this.
00:14:12
Joe
I'm on the edge of seat here.
00:14:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm getting on the bandwagon for the rest of his career. yeah Carlos Beliba already. is the best centre mid in the Premier League.
00:14:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
Come at me.
00:14:30
Joe
God.
00:14:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
ive a
00:14:31
Joe
oh
00:14:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
I've scoured the league. I've been looking through the teams. And I just, I think I'd rather have Belieber over ah most centre mids.
00:14:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
Or not most, I'm going to double down. Every centre mid. He fits into every team. And um When I'm saying that, I think he's a Rolls-Royce type player.
00:14:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
Like, we've seen it. Defensive work. I mean, e people bounce off him. He's rapid when he's recovering. He's got the recovery pace. So, as a DM, perfect.
00:15:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, I should have also said active sentiment, by the way.
00:15:12
Joe
I was going to say, because literally the the best player in the world is a midfielder and he plays in the Premier League.
00:15:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
and Sorry. Roger, yes.
00:15:16
Joe
yeah the The actual best player is, yeah.
00:15:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
Active sentiment. i Yes, right now. um Yeah, so defensive work on lock. Passing range.
00:15:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
We've seen him do like 70-yard pings across the field. We've seen him thread like like part and through balls between the line passes, spreading it wide. And then also just control.
00:15:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
Like, he rarely loses it. And then the thing that everyone, I think, the neutrals love him for and know him for are the powerful runs, picking up deep and just driving with it.
00:15:53
Joe
Yeah, last that's what that's what gets the money up, I think.
00:15:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:15:56
Joe
the the The running with the ball, like, he's prime Yaya Torre and Patrick Vieira.
00:15:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
Like...
00:16:03
Joe
And the, oh, my God, Patrick Vieira.
00:16:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm-hmm.
00:16:05
Joe
I'm actually like, I was literally like, I think I was like four or five when he was then. Do you know what I mean?
00:16:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
We'll pretend like we watched him.
00:16:12
Joe
yeah Yeah, but like, i yeah, I do do.
00:16:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
We've seen clips.
00:16:16
Joe
you know what? I don't think you're far off. I just feel like there's players who have had better seasons than him in the Premier League, but i still feel like, again, he's genuinely one of, if not the best young player in the league.
00:16:30
Joe
I don't think that's, I don't think you can really, I don't think you can really like, and everyone knows that, I feel like if you were to ask like every fan of a different club, Who's that like one player?
00:16:41
Joe
They'd say Jao Pedro they'd say Belova, I think.
00:16:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
believe
00:16:46
Joe
I just think that like there's a couple players who have had, maybe not so much now, but like Kayseda, I think he was having a really, really good season.
00:16:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, so this is Yes, that's exactly what made me think of this I'm not going to lie
00:16:53
Joe
But then he got dog walked. a yeah
00:17:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
I was i'm watching the Chelsea game on Friday and I was like, you know what? We've actually managed to get £100 million pounds out of Chelsea and upgraded. Because Belieber, I think Sy Sade has had actually a quality season.
00:17:13
Joe
Yeah, he has been good.
00:17:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
But Belieber ran him around. like He dominated that midfield battle ah like in their little duel on the weekend.
00:17:19
Joe
I
00:17:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
He pocketed Cole Palmer for two games in a row now. like He's just so, so good. And the other players I was thinking, i was also like thinking in terms of versatility as well.
00:17:29
Joe
don't hate it at all.
00:17:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
So obviously you've got the, McAllister, I think he's like fantastic centre mid, very technically gifted.
00:17:38
Joe
The two. Oh, my God. Hmm.
00:17:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
We've been, we've seen it at our own club. but
00:17:48
Joe
Yeah.
00:17:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
um But he's not as defensively there, I'd say, as Belieber. And like, I guess just the all-roundedness. I'd rather have McAllister pick up the ball and like find...
00:18:00
Joe
They'd work. They'd work really well together.
00:18:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
some magic. Yeah, they would. be brilliant together. Yeah.
00:18:05
Joe
But the thing is, is I think, is that McAllister's defensive work is quite underrated.
00:18:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:18:10
Joe
It's just because he's slow. you know what mean? Like he's running in treacle. But like he's for, he's got that like classic South American like grit about him where he's like, he don't he's not scared to put a foot in.
00:18:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:18:25
Joe
He'll cla it'll go around bashing everyone. Pause. He'll go around bashing everyone if he needs to. And then obviously like when he gets the ball, he's probably not going to lose it. Do you know what I mean?
00:18:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. And then...
00:18:36
Joe
And then the only other one's Grav, isn't it?
00:18:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Gravenberch. And now I think I don't watch... can't say I've watched every single game of Liverpool, but I watch Match of the Day every week and they're on TV very often.
00:18:47
Joe
They're on the TV all the time, aren't they?
00:18:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't know how Liverpool fans feel, but has Gravenberch kind of... He started off-season phenomenally. Has he fallen off? the Because the Wolves game is another game where i was watching and I was thinking, just yeah, he's not really performed, or not performed the level that I expected against a team like Wolves.
00:19:04
Joe
You've got twists up in the Wolves game. LAUGHTER
00:19:09
Joe
Hmm.
00:19:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah And then I was also thinking, Declan Rice will be the other one that people have a conversation about, won't they? yeah They'll make the case of...
00:19:22
Joe
Oh,
00:19:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
think... i and I think, before I say anything crazy, before I say anything crazy, I think Declan Rice is a very good player, but ah just I'm never wowed by him.
00:19:32
Joe
Hmm.
00:19:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't think he can do the stuff that Belieber does.
00:19:40
Joe
they They might be genuinely the most similar, I think. Because Declan Rice is an all-rounder as well, isn't he? A little bit.
00:19:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, exactly.
00:19:51
Joe
Like, I've seen him welly it from outside the box. I've seen he's a strong runner. He's not... I don't think he's a better dribbler than...
00:20:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
No.
00:20:00
Joe
But I mean, Leibur's dribbling, it's not even about the dribbling, is it?
00:20:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah
00:20:03
Joe
he's he's ah He's a ball carrier. And in the same with Declan Rice.
00:20:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:20:07
Joe
I don't expect Declan Rice to be throwing stepovers left, right centre. Do you know what mean? But, like, ah do I do get it. And i do ah do think you're on. I can't really think of any other players in that because we're only looking at basically that DM sort of or just the centre midfielder.
00:20:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:20:21
Joe
So, obviously, you're...
00:20:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. The cams don't count.
00:20:23
Joe
um
00:20:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
The Cole Palmers were taken out.
00:20:24
Joe
Yeah, so like Cole Parkman's and your Fernandez's all them Gibbs.
00:20:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
The Gibbs Whites. oh Yeah.
00:20:28
Joe
Gibbs, what?
00:20:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah I'm not lying, I'm just looking at the league.
00:20:31
Joe
Such a random shout. He's sick, but that's such a random shout.
00:20:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
um I'm just looking at the league, I've gone down, I'm like, I'm trying to find. So, Liverpool, we've said the two. Arsenal, we've said the one that could compete. Nottingham Forest, there's no centre mid. Elliot Anderson's good, but nowhere near Belieber.
00:20:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
Man City, we know they don't have centre mids at the moment. Rodri, I want to make clear.
00:20:51
Joe
that That new lad looks decent, though.
00:20:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
Gonzalez, yeah.
00:20:54
Joe
and
00:20:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah
00:20:56
Joe
Yeah. yeah. you but
00:20:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
to
00:20:58
Joe
That's an op. He's an op to you, isn't it?
00:20:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
he Yeah, I already hate him.
00:21:02
Joe
Was he good in Portugal?
00:21:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah I don't think he was anything that special, really. But we'll see. I mean, Pep Barliola could work magic.
00:21:09
Joe
Just to let you know, he does this every time, guys. If he doesn't if they do not play Benfica, even if they do play for Benfica and they leave, he says they're rubbish.
00:21:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
thank he Yeah,
00:21:16
Joe
Yeah.
00:21:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
but they're tracers is what they are.
00:21:20
Joe
Yeah.
00:21:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
And then, obviously, then you've got like Tielemans, good, but nothing like doesn't come close.
00:21:26
Joe
Yeah, oh, no, no, doesn't come close.
00:21:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
There's just so many. Yeah, Inanna doesn't come close.
00:21:29
Joe
John McGinn? I'm joking.
00:21:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
They're very similar, Inanna and John McGinn.
00:21:31
Joe
I thought you were going to say jumpkin is simple that to the label.
00:21:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
I love John McGinn.
00:21:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
Imagine it's going to be more different.
00:21:42
Joe
Yeah, no, I ah do actually you're right, mate. um the um
00:21:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:21:46
Joe
I don't think you're far off it.
00:21:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
There's a couple. Yeah.
00:21:48
Joe
I don't think he's been the best performing, but I think all round he could definitely be the best.
00:21:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah
00:21:53
Joe
I think i think the comparison to McAllister is, I think they're like the polar opposite midfielder.
00:21:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:21:58
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, that's where it's difficult to tell. Whereas him and Gravenbert and him and Rice and...
00:22:00
Joe
Yeah.
00:22:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
no but They're most similar. And...
00:22:06
Joe
Yeah.
00:22:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
Personally... ah think I think I'll take Leaver.
00:22:09
Joe
He's not like Roger, actually. But Rodri is the best at what McAllister does, if that makes sense.
00:22:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
No.
00:22:17
Joe
He's a metronome, isn't I've learned this new word, by the way, all the listeners at home.
00:22:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. Okay.
00:22:22
Joe
I've learned this word called pauser, right?
00:22:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Okay.
00:22:25
Joe
Which means like the ability to slow the game down to the level that you want it to be at.
00:22:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
He's brilliant, yeah.
00:22:31
Joe
Very Busquets-esque, if you like, because I guess he's the one who probably started it. but the So I digress. I keep seeing it everywhere on Twitter all the time.
00:22:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah so That's a good saying, actually.
00:22:42
Joe
It is a good, yeah, it's not bad. I'm not going to use it in my actual life because I'm not a loser, but, you know.
00:22:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
You'll see all the football scouts then ah describing them.
00:22:51
Joe
Yeah, football scouts, tacticals. yeah actually think that's not bad take, be fair.
00:22:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. But yeah, those
00:22:59
Joe
I also, I don't think it's that outrageous.
00:23:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh
00:23:01
Joe
You might be jumping the gun a tiny bit.
00:23:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
oh yeah I'm jumping the gun big time, but I'm backing it.
00:23:05
Joe
um reckon I reckon i record three years, if he stays in the Premier League, obviously, because, I mean, you sort of it and When you're English and you watch the Premier League, when a player leaves the Premier League, they sort of like, unless they're messy, literally lose all credibility.
00:23:19
Joe
Unless they play for Real Madrid or Barca, they just lose all sort of...
00:23:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, yeah. ah could And I unfortunately can't see Belieber going. I can see him playing for like one of the top clubs in the world. My one day is still only 21. It's mental.
00:23:32
Joe
Yeah, he's so good.
00:23:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mental.
00:23:33
Joe
He is so good. That's going to be hella bread.
00:23:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
And on that note, t yeah and on that note we'll go to a next ad break.
00:23:40
Joe
Thank you.
00:23:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
This is our sponsor, our new sponsor, Bionic.
00:24:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
And we are back with a Daily Brighton podcast. So I've said my outrageous take that I'm going to put my flag into.
00:24:30
Joe
Yeah.
00:24:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
Joe, it's your turn. I'm going to pass the baton over. Do not disappoint.
00:24:37
Joe
Okay. Right. So i actually had two because I wasn't sure in the, um I wasn't sure beforehand, like how many we needed. And I said that I'd do it based off of, ah based off of sort of what you said.
00:24:51
Joe
So your one was quite positive, wasn't it?
00:24:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hmm.
00:24:53
Joe
Both of mine were negative confirmed.
00:24:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm-hmm.
00:24:55
Joe
So it literally has no relevance whatsoever. I'll pick one and I'll just like throw the other one out there at some point, whatever.
00:25:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. We'll let the listeners decide about the other one.
00:25:04
Joe
ah Yeah.
00:25:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
We'll just leave it in the ether.
00:25:06
Joe
Yeah,

Analyzing Brighton's Transfer Window

00:25:07
Joe
definitely. so um my one is that um I think that even though everyone said that we had such a good transfer window, I don't think it was that great, to be honest.
00:25:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's a... I did not expect, like... but I didn't even think about that, actually.
00:25:26
Joe
Yeah, i mean, yeah, cause you yeah because also I've been thinking about it like during various points in the season and there is nothing saying that this transfer window can't end up, oh, you can look back at it X amount of years away or amount of seasons away and say, oh, it was decent.
00:25:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
I haven't thought about that, I guess.
00:25:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hmm.
00:25:46
Joe
But like in terms of like players coming in and having like an instant impact, I don't think any of them did.
00:25:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hmm. Hmm.
00:25:54
Joe
Like, so Kadioglu, you can't even count it because he's not been present half the time.
00:25:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. Yeah.
00:25:58
Joe
He was, he basically signed him injured.
00:26:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Injured immediately.
00:26:01
Joe
Like he he's been in and out of the team anyway.
00:26:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:26:04
Joe
And I still think he struggled a little bit at the start. Mente, I mean, we're seeing, it's in the summer of 2024.
00:26:11
Global Sports Podcast Network
Flashes.
00:26:13
Joe
It's the of February.
00:26:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:26:14
Joe
And we're only now singing his praises for an actual performance rather than singing his praises before the season started like we were doing because we were so excited.
00:26:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:26:25
Joe
um And then, like, if you think about, um I mean, there was no defensive, like, and you, you know what mean?
00:26:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, that's...
00:26:35
Joe
Like, you might not know Lewis Dunk is going to be as bad as he's been, but you know he's old. is That doesn't change.
00:26:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, and we called for as well.
00:26:42
Joe
Yeah, like, yeah, 100%.
00:26:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
Like...
00:26:44
Joe
ah hundred percent And then we've, in my opinion, panic bought in January. Because, like I said before, when we signed him and we touched on it a little bit, it seems like he's like third, fourth choice.
00:26:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm-hmm.
00:26:56
Joe
Yes, it can work out sometimes. like But, you know.
00:27:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:27:01
Joe
And then I'm looking sort of down the line. I don't know if I should actually get the list. I should have had the list up here. So I can go through each player.
00:27:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
Well, and I've got the list.
00:27:09
Joe
you've got to do this. Yeah.
00:27:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
Here's one we're going be pretty happy about. ah That's really like cementing your point. Matt Swiffer, £26 million.
00:27:17
Joe
Yeah, Matt Swiffer was an accident. Again...
00:27:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
pounds
00:27:20
Joe
Yeah, that was a... I hope that was on Klarna and there's a reef there's a refund policy or something, mate. Because that, I mean, apparently he's injured. I did not know that he was even injured, which I think maybe... And I wasn't even... you know what we were saying about? Oh, we didn't know Igor was injured.
00:27:36
Joe
We know the reason why we didn't know he was injured.
00:27:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
o
00:27:37
Joe
I was not intoxicated when Wiffer was injured, I'm certain. and so
00:27:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:27:43
Joe
ah I don't think that that has anything to do with it. He's just been rubbish. um
00:27:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:27:47
Joe
Matt O'Reilly, I mean, to be fair... not his fault because he died in the second. And literally he touched them or died instantly. And then he came back. And then, I mean, getting up to speed halfway through the season when it's like, there's a game every two seconds is not ideal.
00:28:03
Joe
Um, the matey from into Miami, literally like he's, he's a look decent, probably maybe the most so from the start.
00:28:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:28:11
Joe
Um, really good to come on sort of when you want to see a game out because he's just everywhere. um But again, like, you've signed a player.
00:28:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
not a starter.
00:28:20
Joe
Yeah, not starter currently.
00:28:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
Like, all these players, yeah, but they haven't... Like, I actually really like Matt O'Reilly and Gomez, who are the Inter-Miami guy. But the fact the matter is, they haven't started and they can't start they can't get a start over Hinchelwood.
00:28:30
Joe
Yeah.
00:28:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
So I think the pecking order goes Belieber,
00:28:38
Joe
And Ayari and Balaba. Yeah.
00:28:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hinchelwood, then Ayari.
00:28:46
Joe
Yeah.
00:28:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think that's the pecking order and they're below them. So...
00:28:48
Joe
Yeah, and that's three sign-ins who are not in... And we played two in that position. So that's three sign-ins that we've made this summer.
00:28:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:28:58
Joe
And... It is technically just this summer. No.
00:29:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:29:01
Joe
Yeah.
00:29:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, and yeah, yeah because Gomez...
00:29:02
Joe
It's all... They're all... Yeah, because we signed him beforehand and then he joined because the season finished.
00:29:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:29:06
Joe
Yeah, so that's three. I mean, they're all still... no I mean, Matt Swiffer is below me.
00:29:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:29:12
Joe
you what I mean? So, like, that's peak. And then...
00:29:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
and
00:29:16
Joe
Rutter, yes. But... At the start, he's probably the one who's been the most consistent. Gruder, where is he?
00:29:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah Genuinely.
00:29:24
Joe
um like him, but where is he?
00:29:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. ah Yeah, yeah, yeah. Genuinely. Remember when we were we were like quite excited about him? I think, yeah, because you did the scouting and you watched him and you were ah so singing all his praises.
00:29:34
Joe
Yeah, yeah.
00:29:38
Joe
Yeah.
00:29:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
And I think my fear was always going to be like, where and when will he play?
00:29:42
Joe
Yeah.
00:29:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
like Like we said at the time, we signed too many wingers and attacking players and then also centre-mids.
00:29:48
Joe
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
00:29:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
Like, we didn't sign any defenders.
00:29:52
Joe
No.
00:29:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
And it was like, that's our defence sucks, quite frankly.
00:29:56
Joe
Yeah. Mm-hmm.
00:29:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
We're playing Lamptey out of position at left-back. Lamptey's not... he's He's had a couple of solid games against Chelsea, but like consistently throughout the season, he's not been great.
00:30:06
Joe
Mm.
00:30:10
Joe
Yeah.
00:30:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah not gonna like He's not this wow player. And then also, centre-back, they should have known. Like, they should have signed someone in summer.
00:30:17
Joe
Yeah, definitely. 100%.
00:30:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
They should have known Dunk and Webster was not the one.
00:30:21
Joe
And now also playing with the three, with Veltman, um Webster and Van Hecker.
00:30:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:30:28
Joe
That's if, literally, that's three players that could get injured. And then that's even more space that we don't have.
00:30:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah,
00:30:34
Joe
Because after those, apart from Cashing, who is there?
00:30:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah. yeah That's it, yeah.
00:30:38
Joe
you know what I So, and then, so like, even with the wingers, like Kojo Dubra and that, like, I don't think he's lighting up the world on loan, to be honest with you. I know he's he's had some injury issues.
00:30:49
Joe
um i mean, Samiento, I don't think even think we signed him in that window, but i mean he's there as well. But like even Gruder, Minte, i still, in that right wing position, I'd say a still behind Rutter, ah who's not a right winger, really.
00:30:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:31:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. Like, I think the only one that I think has been... i'm like i'm happy to say what a signing that was is Rutter.
00:31:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
Because I think he he has actually...
00:31:16
Joe
Yeah.
00:31:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
for most parts this season, and this could be a hot take in itself, for outperformed Pedro. And I think like that's like that's the only player I think has like a future.
00:31:25
Joe
Yeah. Apart from the very start, I think.
00:31:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
And then, yeah, apart from the start, exactly, yeah. And then Minter is coming on now. But like yeah like you say, how long has that taken?
00:31:35
Joe
February. Halfway through February is mad.
00:31:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, that's taken so long.
00:31:40
Joe
Yeah. But like, to be fair, my other thing was that think it's time to move on from Gio Pedro. He just looks like he doesn't even want to be there. So, you might as well cash in, mate.
00:31:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, yeah.
00:31:50
Joe
And to be fair, it's actually not ideal because you're cashing in on a player who hasn't been performing very well. So his value, I imagine, drops a little bit.
00:31:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's dropping a little, yeah.
00:32:00
Joe
That was the other one, but like I didn't think that that was that crazy. I feel like there'd be some people that would agree with that. um
00:32:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:32:06
Joe
But yeah, that's my hot take. I don't think it's... I don't think it... It is a bit... I feel like if you look... If I were to say that at the end of the transfer window, people would be like, you're an idiot. But like now, like i know hindsight's a great thing, but not not addressing the centre-back issue is crazy regardless.
00:32:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:32:25
Joe
And we spent 250 mil, I'm pretty sure.
00:32:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'll tell you, yeah, i'll I was about to say, I'll tell you why that is a hot take. it's because we spent the most of any Premier League club, including Man City, Man United, Arsenal, these transfer windows.
00:32:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
Like we spent, I think, yeah, 250 mil and... fifty mill
00:32:41
Joe
Yeah.
00:32:43
Joe
Well, we spent more than even Man City after they signed all those players.
00:32:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
and
00:32:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, yeah.
00:32:47
Joe
That's crazy.
00:32:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. So, like, that's how bad is. And it's like, well, fair enough, we have earned the right, I guess, to sign all these players because we've had so many, we've sold so many in the past and we've made absolute bank on players.
00:32:56
Joe
Yeah.
00:33:02
Joe
Yeah.
00:33:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Like, yeah, you'd you'd expect 200 million to be spent a bit better considering how good we are at signing, like, nobodies like Mitoma and Ayari and et cetera, et cetera.
00:33:12
Joe
i think the I think the outgoings were better. I like the outgoings a lot, like Buonanotte and Cisau going to clubs in the Premier League.
00:33:22
Joe
I feel like a Premier League loan is always good.
00:33:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:33:25
Joe
um
00:33:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:33:26
Joe
And like Ferguson as well. I mean, even though I think his race is run, that's still good. And then like, you've obviously got like, I mean, Simmer, I don't care. He's not going to, I doubt he'll ever do anything for Brighton, but like um Simmer and Samienta, like,
00:33:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:33:42
Joe
That's a championship move. They're second or third. Are they, Burnley? They're in the top four. I know that.
00:33:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah oh yeah
00:33:48
Joe
And then, I don't know. Who does Tom Cantwell play for? Todd Cantwell play for? Blackburn?
00:33:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:33:56
Joe
Yeah, so, Kojo Dubry's at Blackburn, I believe.
00:33:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
Ah, okay.
00:34:00
Joe
And, like, that's not that bad. I know that they're sort of in that flirting with the playoffs. don't know they still are. That's my hot take. i actually think it's decent, to be fair. I reckon I've got the best.
00:34:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, that's the last.
00:34:10
Joe
Well, I mean, it's only me and you. ah think I think we've done better this time.
00:34:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's the best one.
00:34:14
Joe
think we've done better this time as as a total, yeah.
00:34:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
But yeah. Fingers crossed.
00:34:18
Joe
Yeah.
00:34:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
We'll relive it in about six months' time.
00:34:22
Joe
Yeah. Yeah.
00:34:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
And it won't be so wrong. Yeah, think that's a pretty good take. Like, we actually haven't, considering we spent 250 million and considering the players that we've... The better players we've bought with less money in the past.
00:34:39
Joe
yeah
00:34:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
Like, we've kind of wastefully splashed that cash. But yeah, those are
