Introduction to the Podcast

00:00:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
Hello and welcome to the Daily Brighton podcast brought to you by the Global Sports Podcast Network.

Wildcard Wednesday Introduction

00:00:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's a wildcard Wednesday. Sensible Transfers is back.
00:00:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
We're focusing on the strikers and you will see that the three-pronged attack is back. I'm joined by Jamie G and blessings Chibamba.
00:00:32
Jamie

Transfer Window Status Update

00:00:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
um As I said before, it is sensible transfers. The transfer window has nine days left.
00:00:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah Nothing's happened so far.
00:00:55
Jamie
What's up?
00:00:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
Brighton haven't signed anyone. I think Moda went out or to final for like a packet of Chris or something like that.
00:01:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, that's good pretty much. um That's pretty much about it. Also, I would like to reflect back onto our centre back centre back one. McConville has since made his debut ah for Brighton and has ah um obviously been on the bench a couple more times as well. And we were informed in the build up to this podcast that one of Jamie's one of Jamie's set about choices has scored against Aston Villa sort of as we're sort of as we're speaking right now.
00:01:34
Jamie
Wilfred Singo. What a man.
00:01:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's it, yeah, Wilfred Singer, that's the one.
00:01:38
blessings
Can I just add as well that brightened the link with tossing arrow to bio?
00:01:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
um
00:01:44
blessings
I mean, I said bad to your shell, but do you know what I mean?
00:01:46
Jamie
Oh, you're on the right line.
00:01:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's...
00:01:47
Jamie
Not really trying to claim.
00:01:49
blessings
Yeah.
00:01:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's Surely Maradovision,

Sensible Striker Transfers Discussion

00:01:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
right?
00:01:50
blessings
to
00:01:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
What are you trying to say, bless?
00:01:56
blessings
i Yeah, I did say anything.
00:01:58
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah Didn't they also recall Trevor Chulliver for no reason?
00:02:03
blessings
Yeah.
00:02:03
Jamie
Well, they played him.
00:02:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah Oh, did they?
00:02:04
Jamie
but that their defense is in tatters that's why they've all they've all got injuries so if they give us tossing mate they've actually just swapped out their problem yeah question exchange
00:02:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, okay.
00:02:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
Okay.
00:02:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
Okay, I get you. i get you ill get you good They can have Adam Webster to be fair. Anyway, I digress. um So it is sensible transfers, we are focusing on the strikers, we're going to have um ah realist no ah dream target a budget target and outrageous target just like it was with the centre back so then we will give a rating at the end for sort of the the transfers as a whole um we're going to start with bless this time we're going to go backwards i will still be in the middle and then we're going to end with Jamie G so bless segment one me segment two Jamie G segment three
00:02:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
um you guys seem to really like the last one so we're running it back with a more interesting position no one cares about the defenders really even though we need them so badly please give us one or two um bless the floor is yours mate let's go um do go budget outrageous dream
00:03:11
blessings
Where do you want me to start?
00:03:21
blessings
okay right For my budget one, sorry to the um views the ah the viewers, the listeners, because you won't be able to see this, but for my budget one, I ah need to just change something.
00:03:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, you can see it on YouTube.
00:03:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, is it?
00:03:32
Jamie
Oh, he's gonna go pat some darker.
00:03:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, no, mate.
00:03:35
blessings
oh
00:03:36
Jamie
listen yeah
00:03:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, please no, f please no.
00:03:40
Jamie
yeah
00:03:42
blessings
Let me land.
00:03:44
Jamie
Go, go.
00:03:44
blessings
Right, for my cheap option, I've gone for Patson Dakar, who was the apprentice, who was, I mean, seen as the heir to the Jamie Vardy throne at Leicester.
00:03:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh my God.
00:03:56
blessings
Obviously, injuries haven't really gone um well for him, but I think there's still a player there. And I think we can get him reasonably cheap. He's a slightly different profile to what we've already got.
00:04:07
blessings
He's got bags and bags of pace, and he's a very, very good finisher. I mean, imagine how well Jean Pedro would be complimented by a player who runs in behind, constantly making that threat, making the back four, the opposition back four, drop off, creating those pockets for, you know, Jean Pedro to be playing in or Ruta to go into. um I think he'll be a brilliant addition and he would go for cheap, I think. um Especially ah if Leicester go down even cheaper in the summer, but I think
00:04:41
blessings
Leicester fans are, I guess this is also criticism on this, Leicester fans are probably not convinced he's the heir to Jamie frow jamie Vardy's f throne. However, they're still a player in there and I think we can get him cheap. He's got Premier League experience and he's a good finisher.
00:04:59
Jamie
Jo I'll let you take it because I know I know Jo did the exact same thing I did when Bless said he's a good finisher we both looked to our phones and searched.
00:04:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
All right
00:05:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yep, I've literally got, I've literally got here.
00:05:09
Jamie
you like follow
00:05:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
So just for, ah thank you for the floor, um Mr.
00:05:16
Jamie
and
00:05:17
Global Sports Podcast Network
Jamie G. ah So since 2021, Pat Zendaka has played 50, what's that, 53, 60, 63, 83 games.
00:05:32
Global Sports Podcast Network
He's scored 17 goals.
00:05:36
Jamie
Not quite the finisher, I think it's the same.
00:05:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
Not quite the deadly finisher that we are being sold here.
00:05:38
blessings
yeah
00:05:40
Jamie
but yes
00:05:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
um
00:05:44
blessings
let let me let look Most of those are probably appearances off the bench for the last 20 minutes with Jamie Vardy. You've got to give him a chance.
00:05:51
Jamie
Granted.
00:05:51
blessings
That's still quite a decent return.
00:05:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah
00:05:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
20 matches, 23 matches, 30 matches. for Because one season he definitely did start. I think it might have been either the season they signed him because of Vardy's injury issues, because he has them as well, or the season after. He didn't play much in the championship, but that's probably even a worse sign than...

Outrageous Transfer Targets Discussion

00:06:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
Gary, what do you think?
00:06:16
Jamie
Yeah well I was actually, when I heard his name, because he was the heir to Erling Harlan's throne at Salzburg if I'm not mistaken and he like lit up at Salzburg, then he got a big like a big move to the Premier League to Leicester at the time and I was thinking all right this could be the like the next big thing out of the Red Bull Academy and I'm not gonna lie He disappoints me every time I watch him.
00:06:44
Jamie
or oh this It's probably a harsh criticism, but I think it says it all about Lester don't really play him. And he still can't get in the squad over a 37-year-old Jamie Vardy.
00:06:56
blessings
He's still doing bits.
00:06:56
Jamie
And I think when we spoke to the Lester crossover or the Lester podcaster in our crossover, he said the fans weren't too keen on him. So that just doesn't really fill me with a lot of confidence about him.
00:07:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, I do remember that actually, yeah.
00:07:10
Jamie
but I would say he was good in the past and I feel like less, rightly so, has let his ah Zambian bias get slightly in the way.
00:07:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
There's a leisure sister Zambia have come out here and maybe clouded his judgment slightly.
00:07:28
blessings
This was an unbiased opinion.
00:07:29
Jamie
one thing you did say One thing you did say, he would be affordable and cheap, so that is a budget target and he does have Premier League experience somewhat when he does play. so

Liam Delap as a Potential Target

00:07:40
Jamie
hey I wouldn't be buzzing about it put it that way, but I'll go.
00:07:45
Jamie
well like
00:07:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
It would need to be really cheap for me to be like, okay, fair enough. Do you know what I mean? But like you said, Guerra, so the season before he joined Leicester, he scored 27-28 for Salzburg.
00:07:57
Jamie
Yeah. yeah
00:08:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
And do you know what? there There are aspects to his game that I really like like he like. He plays off the shoulder really well. He's a very willing runner into the channels. he's yeah He must be like six plus, six one, six two, maybe he's quite big lad. And you could obviously sort of mold him into that, potentially mold him into that um sort of Danny Welbeck role. But The issue with that is that like I don't think that technically he'd be able to do it. don I mean i think i feel like that' say i don't even really hate other don its a ah don't think it's an amazing shout. You've said worse that unfortunately we don't have on record.
00:08:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Willie Orban comes to mind, but um even Baddie Ashiel might be worse to be honest. I don't hate it, but like to be fair, oh I'll allow oh oh allow it because it's a budget option, you know what I mean? You're not telling Teddy Blue to throw 50 million at him. So we'll let you go to the next player.
00:09:01
blessings
Yeah, so my next player, this one, I... Wait, what's the...
00:09:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
Alright, just next one.

Evaluating Striker Choices

00:09:10
blessings
Outrageous, okay, this one's pretty outrageous, to be fair.
00:09:10
Jamie
yeah.
00:09:14
blessings
I really like Samu Oromadon.
00:09:15
Jamie
Hmm.
00:09:18
blessings
Oromadon, that's it, last name.
00:09:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
I'm a rodeo and I think his name is.
00:09:20
blessings
Amiradion, that's it, yeah, he's 20 years old.
00:09:20
Global Sports Podcast Network
and ah
00:09:23
blessings
um He's at Porter at the minute, and I think he scored about 13 goals. he looked he looks a real player and I think clubs will look at him big clubs are probably looking at him and and are a bit unsure because they're asking for I think 50 million euros but I think this one could be one that's worth pay check out for he's decent he's big he's quick um I was looking for a player who can hold the ball up but also
00:09:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
So is I.
00:09:55
blessings
Yeah i think I think that's important in terms of linking up with the other technicians. It has to be a different profile to what we've already got and I think he can be that.
00:09:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mhm.
00:10:03
blessings
um Very good finisher, please go records, says it. for says it And at 20 years old I think he'll have a good resale value as well in the future if it doesn't work out.
00:10:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, no, i can I can get behind this. Actually, I changed my three players basically all the way through. um I actually had him on there originally, but I took him off and replaced him with someone else, just because I feel like, because he's making so so like so much waves at the moment.
00:10:34
Global Sports Podcast Network
um that he'd get snapped up if I didn't go first, so I've moved him out. But um the only reason why they're actually asking for 50 million is because I ah think it's Afletica Madrid that he's at is his like his club that he went from.
00:10:46
blessings
um yeah
00:10:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, so Afletica Madrid actually have a 50% salon clause. Hence why they're asking for so much money because um Porto didn't pay that much room at all.
00:10:58
Global Sports Podcast Network
I think they paid like 12 million for him. somebody is very cheap like it's not over 20 million I don't think Gary you might be able to I don't know if you're looking but
00:11:08
Jamie
No, um.
00:11:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
No.
00:11:08
blessings
parents.
00:11:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Yeah, I looked up when I when I've done a research on the first, I looked up there.
00:11:13
blessings
Yeah.
00:11:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
So basically, they're getting half the amount of money that they're going to basically get back a little bit more profit when he goes because he's not going to be there forever, is he?
00:11:20
Jamie
Hmm, yeah.
00:11:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
Let's be honest. So that's the only reason why his price is so high. Mad bit of business where I've let him do it because he's actually gone there and then he's taking your careers as the only player that scored more than them in that league.
00:11:32
Jamie
Uh, yeah?
00:11:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, sounds about right.
00:11:36
Jamie
Yeah.
00:11:36
blessings
yeah
00:11:37
Jamie
um
00:11:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
I like it. I like it to be honest. I think it's a baller.
00:11:39
Jamie
Yeah, I'm a very big fan having watched him oh pump my Benfica as well over in Portugal. That's ah also not very good. um But yeah, that's so yeah, I'm a very big fan of him as a player.
00:11:54
Jamie
He's very clinical. He's an absolute monster to be fair and just absolutely terrorizes the poor Portuguese farmer defenders that we have in our league.
00:11:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:12:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
They were like 40 as well, so Pete.
00:12:05
Jamie
yeah
00:12:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
Right, no, I'm a big fan of that one. What about your next one?

Budget Options for Strikers

00:12:11
blessings
Okay. Right. The final one. So this is my whole hope hopeful one realistic. Um, I think the struggle is going to be convincing you that this is realistic. Um, but I've gone for Liam dilap.
00:12:24
blessings
Um,
00:12:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
I had a feeling that he'd get brought up in this episode. I don't know why.
00:12:28
blessings
Yeah. i I really like him, I think he's very very good and I don't see Ipswich staying up so this the room is circulating that they want 50 odd mil for him. I don't think that's got much truth to it because if they get relegated he's going to want to go and I don't think big sides again I don't think big big sides are willing to take the risk because he's still quite raw he's still quite you know fresh on the scene and I think Brighton could be a really good place for him to to sort of continue that.
00:13:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm.
00:13:02
blessings
Um, again, we've I've gone for someone who's quite big in terms of their frame can hold the ball up. And I think that's something he can probably develop even further. And we've obviously our man, Danny Welbeck around as well.
00:13:15
blessings
That can, that I can see that sort of been, well, it's opportunity to get into coaching and get that that young ah young man, young man, a bit better at holding it up.
00:13:26
blessings
He's got, he's got pace as well. He can run.
00:13:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
It's a very strong runner, very strong runner.
00:13:30
blessings
It can strike all as well on this right foot. So I think there's all the ingredients for a good player in them.
00:13:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
Ingredients is is crazy.
00:13:41
blessings
but
00:13:43
Jamie
it
00:13:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
Everyone's saving me.
00:13:45
Jamie
it
00:13:45
blessings
You know what I mean?
00:13:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't know what you mean, but what does that actually mean?
00:13:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
The ingredients is unreal. no general what actually You've bought you you pushed me away with the facts of that guy and then you slowly brought me back. And now now I'm back. Now like it I actually trust in you again now because you the the faith was going. But now, yeah, what do you think about that one, mate?
00:14:08
Jamie
love the pick, love the player to be fair. Like you say, everything that you said about him is things that I see on a daily basis or weekly basis, shall I say.
00:14:18
Jamie
ah guys um um about turning around yeah I'm just constantly watching highlights of him every day.
00:14:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
Man's at training ground.
00:14:21
blessings
What you did never do like daily is crazy.
00:14:27
Jamie
But yeah, such a strong runner. I mean, we saw it against us, to be fair. Like, he turned Van Hecker. Van Hecker probably thought it was going to be like a foot race with him, like an even race.
00:14:41
Jamie
And he absolutely just outpaced him. Then kind of any time he tried, Van Hecker tried coming back to him against us, he kind of shrugged him off the ball. And it's crazy to think that he's 20 years old.
00:14:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
knew
00:14:53
Jamie
He's built like a basically a man. already, even though he's only 20. He's also very technically good. He links up well with Hutchinson, the the games that I've watched, and the highlights packages as well.
00:15:07
Jamie
But yeah, it's really, that's a great shout. And i'm not I must say, three cracking shouts there too.
00:15:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, i do i read I really don't think they're that bad to be honest.
00:15:16
blessings
He would, he said three as well, do you know what I mean? That stacker as well.
00:15:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
the first one's not a bad shout but like what are you really going to do with with no money do you know what I mean like you're supposed to what's a budget option probably less than 25 mil right because 30 mil you're thinking it's quite expensive do you know what I mean but yeah um no I like it a lot I'm actually going to give it
00:15:20
Jamie
well
00:15:33
Jamie
yeah
00:15:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
It would have been a 9 if you could have bought me someone better than Pat Sandaka for cheap.
00:15:39
Jamie
Yeah.
00:15:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
But I'm going 8.5. I'm adding decimals in there. I'm going 8.5. I like that a lot, actually.
00:15:54
blessings
I'll tell you that.
00:15:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:15:54
Jamie
I'm a going to match you with the 8.5, but for slightly different reasons, my love the players My only thing is like realisticness, like this January transfer window, which I know it's we're not going to sign anyone anyway, so it's hardly a knock. But like Liam Dilap, Ipswich wouldn't let him go because he's basically the only hope they have of survival. And then Samuel Amorodion, I think is like, he'll go somewhere bigger than us, unfortunately. But yeah, great shouts.
00:16:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
Anyway guys, let us know what you think of Bless Your Shouts in the comments of our YouTube video on social media and so even on the comments on Spotify if you actually want to do that. I don't know if people do that, but you know I know it's ah it's a thing, so maybe give it a try. And we will be back after this short break.
00:17:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
and we are back for part two of sensible transfers we just had blessing sensible transfers we're very impressed so now it's my turn big joe it's my turn joe i'll take him out off of this oh my god and i'll put it out back on lord have mercy lord have mercy
00:17:30
Jamie
okay
00:17:31
blessings
but
00:17:33
Jamie
and
00:17:34
blessings
ah The comments are going to go mad now.
00:17:35
Jamie
hey
00:17:37
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Yeah, so I'm going to try and follow that up. um My ones are, I think I might lose you on one, but the other, they're all good players. They're all really good players. um What was the first one again?
00:17:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
Budget.
00:17:49
Jamie
Budget, yeah.
00:17:50
Global Sports Podcast Network
So my budget pick is, and ah you Gary, you mentioned just before we went onto the break about it needs to be for like this window.

Hopeful Striker Transfers Discussion

00:18:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
This one is a view to Summers window but if you were to go for him in this window, I imagine you'd get him at a cut price purely because his contract's up.
00:18:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
next summer. So my first pick is Jonathan David.
00:18:13
Jamie
Hmm?
00:18:16
Global Sports Podcast Network
um i mean where but I'm literally going to scout him after this game because I believe that he's playing against Liverpool. He plays for Little, doesn't he?
00:18:27
Jamie
Yeah.
00:18:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, he plays for Little, yeah. So I'm going to actually go scout him off this. um yeah he's ah He's strong, quick, eye for goal. And it's a bit weird actually because um When I sort of go through the the teams on foot mob and that, he doesn't always start.
00:18:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't know if that's because he's not signed a contract. It's possible, but he's also really young as well. And he is available on a free in the summer. Therefore, if you want to make your money, he's obviously not going to sign a contract because he's probably free to talk to. I've heard so many clubs a link with him anyway, and he's free to sign a pre contract, right? Because it's January. Yeah. So and if they are going to sell him, they'd have to send him for a cut price because you can't ask for 40, 50 million for someone who's out of contract in like a couple months time basically. um Yeah and I just think that fool for nothing in the summer or even for 20 million, 25 million now um in a market that
00:19:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah feel like in the striking market now the value is either too high or it's like for the top top players or it's there's just no one really around so I feel like you're getting one of the best young strikers in Europe for a cut price and I still think that is not I don't feel like Jonathan David would go to a Arsenal or a Real Madrid Barcelona for example now but I feel like his next step is to sort of build his green show that he can what he can do and then maybe go on after that. Obviously I hate to say that but it is just sort of the way the cook crumbles. um So yeah that's my first pick, Jonathan David of Lille.
00:20:11
Jamie
I like the player a lot ah and like you say he's very prolific and I think he's tapeding he's taken to Ligue 1.
00:20:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
He is, yeah.
00:20:21
Jamie
Where did he come from? I'm going to look it up.
00:20:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
but I don't know.
00:20:25
Jamie
I think Belgium.
00:20:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
All I know is that he's he's Canadian, isn't he?
00:20:27
Jamie
Yeah, but he came from Ghent before this and then got moved a little.
00:20:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. Okay.
00:20:32
Jamie
Been there for ah five seasons. I didn't even realize that. But yeah, he's been getting in double digits every single season. So class player, very good in behind as well. Very quick and like built like a typical American, very strong, like a bit like an ox.
00:20:50
Jamie
So yeah, very good player.
00:20:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
What about you, bless?
00:20:54
blessings
Yeah, no, I like him. I think he's he's decent. There's a good shout as well. I like the, it's a good time to go for a player like that on ah on the free.
00:21:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
Mm hmm.
00:21:04
blessings
And like you said, yeah, the big top, top sides are probably not really looking at him like that. um So it's an opportunity for like us to sort of sweep him up.
00:21:16
blessings
um the only thing I would say and I'll be honest I haven't watched too much of him but I feel like from what I've seen his sort of skill sets it's quite similar to what we've already got in terms of dribbling he's probably like from what I remember he's really good at dribbling but I didn't see him sort of score you know being a poacher 9 but that that might be just down because I'm just watching that much but yeah maybe you can answer that after you watch him tonight but yeah it's
00:21:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yes, fair enough.
00:21:44
blessings
as he plays, is he a target man, is he a poacher, or is he one of those strikers who have come short because we've got better then?
00:21:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
i think I think he's more of a on the shoulder line than he is a ah like a target man, but I do have a target man in this list somewhere.
00:22:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
so um yeah that's That's the only reason I went for him. I'd like to switch it up a little bit because if I just gave you three target men, I'd think that'd be quite a peek. um Anyway, on to my next one. This is the outrageous shout, and this just is outrageous. It's just not going to happen, do you know what I mean? And it's actually Benjamin Sesko.
00:22:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
When you said outrageous, I could basically say whatever I want, but I've also just gone for someone who, um I mean, It would never happen just because of where he's at in his career, but it definitely could have happened at one point. Do you know what I mean? I feel like we've missed that bit now because he's on to that next bit. And I'll actually be honest, I'll be so real. I thought he was really pony in the Euros. Don't get me wrong, he's Slovenian, isn't he?
00:22:55
Global Sports Podcast Network
Not the best side in the world, you know what I mean? But like, that was his chance to sort of be like, okay, I'm here now. And then he wasn't here.
00:23:03
Jamie
Yeah.
00:23:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
He was not there. Do you know what I mean?
00:23:07
Jamie
Yeah.
00:23:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah um in terms of his skill set, he has so much, I feel like it would be an upgrade, obviously, on, I hate to say it, but like, it's a, it's a more skillful, bit more sort of clinical, like technical version of Danny Welbeck. Like, because, like, sorry, but
00:23:33
blessings
I thought you were gonna say Evan Ferguson. I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:23:36
Jamie
if you Yeah.
00:23:36
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, Liam the Lap is the upgraded version of Evan Ferguson, because them two are like basically two peas in the pot but Evan Ferguson has cheese string and hamstrings.
00:23:40
blessings
Yeah, nah, I hate that.
00:23:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
um But I feel like he's he has that hold up play but he's also very skillful in the sort of same like sort of breakfast like Giroud but also like rapid strong can probably even play off the wings i think you might sometimes play off the wings for um Leipzig um but yeah incredible ball striker i don't know if you saw his goal the other day but he's absolutely twatted at top bins mate from way away mate it was unbelievable
00:24:12
Jamie
Mm.
00:24:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
Um, uh, yeah, he's just he is just a he genuinely has like could have the world at his feet If he wanted to but it's just sort of stepping it up on those Like in those bigger moments on a bigger stage Because let's be honest when it comes to like a team like no disrespect to to lipesig But when it comes to a team like lipesig you're only ever seeing stuff They've done either on foot mob or on like twitter from a highlight. Do you know what I mean? but like ah I feel like it will get a move eventually but apparently it's like we're looking at in like the hundred I reckon it'll be like 80 to 80 plus to lure it away but I mean in an outrageous world I'm spending that P mate so um but yeah that's my outrage pic so I don't know what you guys think you
00:25:04
Jamie
I might say something controversial.
00:25:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
don't think he's that good yeah it's bad at URS
00:25:09
Jamie
I don't think he's that good at all. I really, like you say, out of pony euros, I was expecting him to see something. Because that was going to be the first time the world sees him, I guess, and he just didn't perform.
00:25:23
Jamie
And then when I watched him in the Champions League and in Bundesliga highlights games, he just doesn't ever
00:25:27
Global Sports Podcast Network
They're doing terrible at the Champions League.
00:25:33
Jamie
shine to me. I actually prefer, this is actually a take, I prefer Louis Arpenda who plays alongside him for Leipzig than I do Seska, but yeah.
00:25:41
Global Sports Podcast Network
I have a really mixed bag of watching Benjamin Sesker, so I think I've watched him five times. Maybe a couple more like I didn't watch every Slovenia game, but I know that he was pony, um but I watched um Was it against Real Madrid?
00:25:58
blessings
Yeah, they are last season.
00:25:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
But was it last season or this season?
00:26:01
Jamie
Last season against Ramon Turner, I think.
00:26:02
Global Sports Podcast Network
So last season and I watched something that's around Madrid in ah um in the knockouts if set a panda sesco Simmons and there was another one as well.
00:26:03
Jamie
Yeah.
00:26:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
They were made might have been Danny Almer actually
00:26:18
blessings
Yeah.
00:26:18
Jamie
Yeah.
00:26:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
They were just they could have genuinely put seven eight pass around Madrid.
00:26:22
Jamie
yeah
00:26:23
Global Sports Podcast Network
They were shocking I've never seen like chances be squandered like that before but then I've also watched um I think I watched sesco once more before ah Was he at salsberg before?
00:26:35
Jamie
ah Yeah.
00:26:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, so I watched him once at salsberg don't ask me why literally don't know why but he was class there um but
00:26:41
Jamie
Yeah.
00:26:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
Um, but he was like, he must've been like 18 at that point, I imagine, but like, but then again, you watch it for Slovenia, but then I've also watched a couple of games in the life where it's been decent. And also I quite like Louisa Pender as well.
00:26:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
Um, oh he would even be a bad shout to be honest with you.
00:26:57
Jamie
yeah
00:26:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
Um, and they do have really good players, but sub of It's a really mixed bag of what I've seen, but I just know that the raw talent's there. like All it would take is just one season of like really consistent performances for him to go to that like next sort of echelon level, whatever you want to call it.
00:27:05
Jamie
Yeah.
00:27:13
Jamie
Yeah.
00:27:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
um but Yeah, definitely.
00:27:14
Jamie
I think he does have potential, to be fair. And I've also just looked it up. He scored six in his last seven, so maybe this is the time to turn him for him.
00:27:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah maybe yeah but obviously like I want to see that in the big leagues you know what I mean like I don't want to see that when every single goal that you watch in the Bundesliga is literally they've got the whole half of the picture run into and no one's there do you know what I mean so yeah so yeah that was my and then my last pick this is the this is a bit of a rogue shout and I don't know if either of you to have watched him
00:27:27
Jamie
Hmm.
00:27:35
Jamie
yeah
00:27:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
um A fellow teammate of his has just moved to Magicity in Oma Amoosh and this is, it is Hugo Ekatike, yeah, so um this guy is basically, I want you to picture this, he's like ah Isaac Light, so like a ah baby version of Isaac.
00:27:53
Jamie
ah Yeah. I can see Kay.
00:28:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
not by the way he looks but generally the way that he plays is like he's got unbelievable hold up plays link up plays fantastic I think he's got like he must have like six seven eight assists in in the yeah in the Bundesliga and I think he might have like 11 goals or something like that he
00:28:11
Jamie
Yeah.
00:28:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
The thing with him is that he's actually like skipped the whole thing of like, oh, let's go to a team and then like build ourselves up. And then he's gone straight to PSG. They all say that he flopped at PSG.
00:28:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
They got in for basically nothing as well. He scored seven goals in 11 games. And his competition, I'm pretty sure, was Neymar Messi and someone else. So who was his striker in that?
00:28:51
Jamie
And maybe Gonzalo

Santiago Jiménez as a Target

00:28:53
Jamie
Ramos would be there.
00:28:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:28:54
blessings
yeah on column one is uh
00:28:54
Jamie
I think they joined at the same time maybe.
00:28:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. Yeah. Oh yeah like yeah, so like, yeah I mean, he had to face better than Moani, I'm not gonna lie.
00:29:02
Jamie
He is, yeah.
00:29:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
um
00:29:03
blessings
yeah on i think
00:29:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
um
00:29:06
blessings
house
00:29:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, so like, to be honest, I think that he, so they, I think he signed for like seven mil to PSG, scored seven goals, 11 games, went on loan to Frankfurt.
00:29:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
and then they made it permanent for like 35 million so I don't even think it's going to be like a crazy amount of money like to get him to come but obviously I don't think that they're going to be like okay we've just let Marmush go who's like the top goalscorer in Buddha's league and they'll be like yeah let's so also let our striker go that would be ridiculous. um I also think they're trying to get into the Champions League um So, you know, um but he's just a class player like he's got he's got literally got everything and for a successor to Danny Welbeck sort of role that he plays I think it could be perfect and I actually originally had I had someone else originally who I said for this position and then um
00:30:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
I sort of saw a couple of like links about because of the whole Isaac going to Arsenal maybe and all that I then saw people saying like oh but what about this guy sort of thing and I really knew who he was but like I just didn't know that he was doing the things that he was doing at that time so I looked into it a bit more and he's class mate actually I think that for us we don't need to replace like other players around that we also don't you don't ah necessarily have to replace Danny Welbeck but but like you will eventually have to replace Danny Wellebeck but you need someone to be in there to do what he's doing he can't play 30 38 games a season do you know what I mean like it's ridiculous he's like how old is he like 35 like do you know what I mean like that's insane and to cut you need to me and bless have the same idea of bringing someone in who's similar to Danny Wellebeck but you bring the age down by 15 years and then you're sorted in that position for however long you want to go for do you know what I mean so
00:30:42
Jamie
Yeah. Yeah.
00:30:47
Jamie
yeah but
00:31:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, those are my three. So ah I'll throw it over to you guys.
00:31:07
Jamie
Yeah, ah I think Hugo Ekatike started at REM as like, and came on the scene as like an 18 year old.
00:31:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:31:16
Jamie
That's how he got this big move to PSG and he was class the for them. Yeah, like you say, didn't get the chance at PSG, got like thrown to the side, kind of, they kill strikers though.
00:31:26
Jamie
Look at what what they've done to Gonzalo Ramos as well, and Kola Mwani, don't give him a chance.
00:31:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
my yeah
00:31:32
Jamie
um So yeah, then kind of got his breakthrough back up and he's still only 21, I think he is.
00:31:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, 2021, yeah.
00:31:40
Jamie
Yeah it's uh and he's so good on the ball like very skillful and his link-up play with Marmouche this season would be something so good to have with like say Pedro yeah as the successor. Like you can kind of see that unfolding in the prem so yeah I'm a big fan of Hugo Ectique and I had that actually on one of mine so I guess I'll change it.
00:32:04
blessings
ah
00:32:05
Jamie
yeah
00:32:05
Global Sports Podcast Network
I was all wondering if it was ever going to come where someone took someone else as well.
00:32:09
blessings
Yeah, i'm I'm a big fan as well.
00:32:10
Jamie
I have a backup, fine.
00:32:12
blessings
I think it's decent from what I've seen as well.
00:32:17
blessings
I don't know, it's it's one of them then ones there where I'm like, do I see Brighton putting in like a £60 million pound bid?
00:32:25
Jamie
Hmm.
00:32:26
blessings
I just don't know. But I think it's, yeah, it'd probably be around then.
00:32:30
Jamie
I reckon, yeah, I reckon it would be expensive. They just sold my moosh and...
00:32:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
that's true that's actually a true that's probably why isn't it cuz I did yeah, I Thought mommy's playing the wing Okay okay
00:32:37
Jamie
but They need a Shryker, yeah.
00:32:38
blessings
Yeah.
00:32:39
Jamie
They can't tell both their Shrykers.
00:32:41
blessings
So.
00:32:43
Jamie
He plays as like this i plays similar to what I believe Jow Pedro and Wobet kind of do, where they're like Shrykers for each other, or second Shrykers, whatever you want to put it.
00:32:49
blessings
Then.
00:32:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, hear it.
00:33:00
Jamie
I'll give you all three. ah I'm going to say... um For the players quality, for the realism, I've docked bless a point.
00:33:12
Jamie
So I'll dock you a point. I'm going to go eight out of ten. But the players are class.
00:33:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
um say oh I'm actually taking that because the quality of our ranking all together has been poor. So you need to, if if bless gives Bless is going to give me like a six here, but
00:33:20
Jamie
if
00:33:21
blessings
yeah
00:33:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
Right, hopefully yours is also a good, Garo, because then we actually can make a name for ourselves there.
00:33:30
blessings
Um, oh, it's annoying because yeah, I thought the players were really good as well. I think all the transfers are a bit tricky though. Um, this is hard.
00:33:44
Global Sports Podcast Network
Are we actually taking into consideration the realism of signing Benjamin Sesko and also the other player who's on a free?
00:33:46
Jamie
It's not the X Factor, mate.
00:33:56
blessings
I think the wages will be tricky. um I'm gonna go 8.5.
00:34:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
So, okay, I'll take that. I'll tell you what, mate.
00:34:03
blessings
I'll go 8.5. I wanted to get 8, but...
00:34:04
Global Sports Podcast Network
I said, I think I've swayed him just at the end there. Because he can't, Jonathan David can't be on that much, but me he plays a French league, can't be on that much, but he don't have Premier League money.
00:34:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
To be fair, um our our highest played player is on like 90K, so.
00:34:18
blessings
Really?
00:34:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
And it's Cadiogla, apparently.
00:34:19
Jamie
Oh yeah.
00:34:20
blessings
That's mad, I don't need that.
00:34:21
Global Sports Podcast Network
Apparently, yeah. Yeah, apparently. I'm not really a wage guy, I don't really care, as unless they're giving me some. Anyway. We are going to go to another break. You're going to hear from our partners at Zencaster.
00:34:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
And then Jamie G, the general, is up. the the He's like a computer. He knows everyone. But who is he going to pick for his three players?
00:34:42
Jamie
Ah.
00:34:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
Find out after the break.
00:35:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
And we are back. It's the final segment of sensible transfers. I've just thrown my Pepsi at my second monitor ah and things aren't looking good. But Jamie G. Lay it on me, brother. Pause.
00:35:24
Jamie
wow Well, well, we'll go with the budget one to begin with, I guess. ah I have gone for a man that, unlike Benjamin Sesco, lit it up in the Euros, and I've gone for Georges Mikatapsé as like a very budget option because
00:35:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, do the same, same order.
00:35:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
Leon have no money.
00:35:47
Jamie
yeah leon have no money that's option the reason number one is leon have no money they need to sell otherwise apparently they could get relegated i'm not actually sure of that how true that is um so they need to sell mikatatsi is also on their bench like he barely plays for them uh i've got the stats here ah that he has played or started six games um and he can't get in over lacazette so it
00:35:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
No, that's true.
00:36:15
Global Sports Podcast Network
Is it like is it like God in France?
00:36:19
Jamie
Well, yeah, I think he and he's actually he's I think he's producing the goods like is that fully on.
00:36:19
blessings
good
00:36:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, for the like the last two seasons, I think.
00:36:24
Jamie
um Yeah, he's, I think he's already scored double digits. So yeah, Mikotatze is like his understudy, only started six games, but in those six, he scored four.
00:36:29
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's much.
00:36:37
Jamie
And I think we just need to have a flashback to the Euros of just how good Mikotatze was and how he kind of took the world by storm.
00:36:43
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yes, it was good.
00:36:47
Jamie
His feet, well, i arguably, arguably one of the best players at the Euros
00:36:49
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:36:53
Global Sports Podcast Network
i mean I mean, it got him a move to Leon, so it's not necessarily like the madness.
00:36:55
Jamie
he got drink
00:36:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
No disrespect to Leon, but he's good, though.
00:36:59
Jamie
and yeah but ah so yeah He's very, very good with his feet.
00:37:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
He's good.
00:37:06
Jamie
I was looking for players, so with my three, I'm looking for players that drop deep and play the Danny Welbeck role where they link up with Striker, when where they can link up with um Jau Pedro, but be a a lot younger. ah So that's why I kind of thought of Mika Tatsé, because you saw the link up with Kavachvelia in the Euros. um And then you also see his technical ability, very good on the ball, very quick footed, sits down defenders all the time, but also like a cheeky finisher and a bit of a poacher when he wants to be. ah For Metz, I think two seasons ago, when he first broke through, he scored 24 in 37. So,
00:37:46
Jamie
It shows like there's something there that he can clearly develop on.
00:37:47
Global Sports Podcast Network
Stop that.
00:37:51
Jamie
And if you're getting him for like, I reckon like 10 million. And I think it's a player, because he's not being used now, could come to Brighton in this brand new transfer window if we wanted to ah actually bring him over.
00:38:04
Jamie
So yeah, that's my player number one.
00:38:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
Nice I I rate it to be fair. I think it's a it's a very good budget option Sort of preying on the poor a little bit there though. Um, so morally I feel like it's wrong but um No, but you're you're a spot on they need to I don't know what's going on because i've never heard of the You need to sell players.
00:38:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Otherwise, we're just going to relegate you. I didn't know that's how it worked Is it not going to try or something?
00:38:26
Jamie
yeah it's awesome ah What happens in France stays in France, apparently.
00:38:28
Global Sports Podcast Network
Like do I mean like?
00:38:30
blessings
and
00:38:30
Global Sports Podcast Network
Um Yeah, sure, yeah But um yeah, no, I do like him as a player who's really, really good in Euros. But the Euros was the only time I've ever seen him play football.
00:38:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
So I like the shot because he was very good.
00:38:43
blessings
yeah
00:38:45
blessings
Yeah, I'm the same, I like the shout. Very, very good. again um Yeah, good option for it being cheap as well. It sounds like Leon would pretty much take it back to Chris and Adam Webster.
00:38:59
Global Sports Podcast Network
You know, worried about his wages, bless.
00:39:00
blessings
No, um no because it it sounds like Leon would have no wages.
00:39:06
Jamie
Yeah, it'll be lucky to my page.
00:39:08
blessings
rather been paid among
00:39:09
Global Sports Podcast Network
He's a volunteer.
00:39:13
Global Sports Podcast Network
He's going to go, yeah, we're actually going to pay you, mate. And and that's it.
00:39:16
Jamie
it
00:39:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
All right, who's your next one then?
00:39:20
Jamie
ah My outrageous one. So in the same ilk of looking for players that can drop deep, play with Jau Pedro and like just kind of link up play and do everything Danny Welbeck does.

Budget and Outrageous Transfer Suggestions

00:39:38
Jamie
um It's not that outrageous.
00:39:41
Jamie
really because there is a path for for us to get him and we often give them players so it's only fair they finally give us one back and I've gone for Kristoff and Kunku he doesn't play for Chelsea but at Leipzig he was literally like the second striker like linking everything together and at Leipzig I'm trying to think about I'll get up how many goals he scored a minute but you can see the
00:40:08
Global Sports Podcast Network
He was playing the air that year in the Bundesliga, yeah.
00:40:11
Jamie
Oh, there we go. I think I'm convinced he scored 30. I could be wrong in saying that though. Yeah, he scored, there we go. 34 games, 20 goals, but altogether that season, ah he had 52 games, 35 goals, season after 36 games, 23 goals. So like the goal scoring ability is there and I think Chelsea are just kind of using him wrong or maybe don't know how to use them or
00:40:42
Global Sports Podcast Network
But ah they're playing in the conference league and he was, he's a France, a French international. That's where I think...
00:40:47
Jamie
teacher too fair yeah do fair think that Yeah, I don't, I don't think they also want him. So that's why I'm saying it's not that outrageous. But I think for him, he probably wouldn't look at Brighton and go, Oh yeah, that's where I want to be next.
00:41:01
Jamie
Because it would feel like his career has taken him.
00:41:03
Global Sports Podcast Network
think it's going to buy me in it.
00:41:05
Jamie
drop yeah well that wouldn't be a surprise to be fair like that's where that's why i think it's outrageous is like i can see his next step being much higher than Brighton no offense was um but yeah that's my kind of player i think we all are familiar it with his talent he is great on the ball great linking up so yeah Danny Welbeck 2.9
00:41:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah ah no
00:41:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:41:26
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. Yeah. I bless our ego first, mate.
00:41:29
blessings
yeah no I think it's it's a good idea because his um but what he brings would be really useful for Brian. Whereas ah where where is at Chelsea now what what he brings is he just doesn't fit the system.
00:41:43
blessings
um because at Leipzig his best moments were always with a partner up front and and Meretsi just does not look like he wants to do that so yeah upright and obviously he can have a partner Jean Pedro well back I think you'd be I think you'd do really well um obviously oh absolutely outrageous shout I don't know why I'm saying he'll do really well like it's like ah on the
00:42:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:42:11
Jamie
Like he's coming.
00:42:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, like he's actually pre he signed a contract already.
00:42:14
blessings
so let He snapped there, he's got it, Munich, Brighton.
00:42:18
Jamie
Hey, we've got the seaside.
00:42:21
blessings
That's it, pedal beat.
00:42:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, wait until we find out there's rocks on it. I think it's decent. The only thing is that, and to be fair, does it really doesn't really have anything to do with him as a player. I think he's class, but like ah ah his agent just seems like the worst our person ever, because I remember hearing something when he first joined, he was obviously injured when he joined Chelsea.
00:42:48
Global Sports Podcast Network
And apparently, his agent has asked, I think it's Poch at the time, I think his agent asked Poch, you know, why is he not playing, but he's injured. Right, that's mad.
00:43:01
Global Sports Podcast Network
I mean, like, but like, I, I don't understand how it could go so wrong for someone of that call it like that caliber of player.
00:43:01
Jamie
it
00:43:08
Jamie
That ability. Yeah.
00:43:10
Global Sports Podcast Network
Do you know what I mean? Like, I know that it obviously didn't help if he, I reckon if he literally wasn't injured when he first joined, he'd be all right. He'd probably be like starting every week but yeah it's just it's just gone this has gone terribly wrong for him but yeah yeah he needs just a stick of rock or whatever and um yeah some ice cream and a donut or something and then it'll be all right do you know what i mean i rate him a lot i like that one who's your um who's your dream one you're realistic here
00:43:25
Jamie
That's why it needs to refresh at Brighton.
00:43:35
blessings
said
00:43:39
Jamie
ah My slightly hopeful one. Yeah, ah this isn't... Now, I would say this isn't a player like I've described. This is more of a poacher. But I've scoured...
00:43:51
Jamie
You've kind of taken my Hugo Ekateke one, so... My backup was going to be ah Santiago Jimenez for Fairnord, yeah.
00:44:00
Global Sports Podcast Network
Fair note.
00:44:02
Jamie
ah Because we've already stolen Matt Zwiffer. Arna Slott's gone as well.
00:44:06
Global Sports Podcast Network
Oh, can we send it back?
00:44:07
Jamie
Yeah, we can we can swap them.
00:44:07
blessings
Yeah, I was going to say, Matt's with us. Thanks for the gaffer.
00:44:11
Jamie
Hopefully we can just get a swap. We actually bought the wrong one. ah and we meant We meant we want that guy on this one that's with us. That's what we should do. So there's a way for him to come to our club already.
00:44:19
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:44:22
Jamie
We just do an exchange with Matt Swiffer. We claim that's not the product we ordered.
00:44:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah
00:44:27
Jamie
um But yeah, we are Santiago Jimenez is actually a class little poacher. like he's always in All of his goals are kind of in and around the box, which is something that I feel we don't have and actually I know we don't have because what he offers is someone that is just gonna shoot and there's one thing I've complained about so much on these podcasts and the reviews is how Brighton just don't shoot like they try and pass the ball into the net every single time we're in the box
00:44:58
Jamie
um Whereas Jimenez, I have some stats here, of course I do. um He has his XG of 5.8 but he scored 6 in his last 8. So that's 0.9 goals per 90. So clinical is something to say about him. And then I feel like people always use XG wrong and it really winds me up because people will sometimes go like, oh yeah, he's got off 12 XG, but he's only scored four. That means he's missed about eight blatant chances. Whereas at least with him and as having the same XG as the actual goals he scored means like he's clinical and will shoot and isn't afraid of shooting.
00:45:43
Jamie
But yeah, the only concern is Matt Zwiffer hasn't been great. He came from the same league. I think if you look over to United as well, they've had players, Anthony, that come over and
00:45:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
All of them.

Fitting Transfers into Brighton's Lineup

00:46:01
Jamie
not been great.
00:46:01
Jamie
So I don't think the standard of the Iredivisi is very good and we can trust it, especially if you're going to splash out 35 million for him.
00:46:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, but Code of Gakpo, he's doing alright, isn't he?
00:46:14
Jamie
Yeah, that's true. There's there's one success story.
00:46:18
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah. Yeah, I don't have any other off the top of my head, mate.
00:46:19
Jamie
bernie But yeah, that's a that was my hopeful one.
00:46:25
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, no, joe war I actually like it. And there's one thing that I like about him, which is something that I heard on a YouTube video that I was watching. I don't know what I was watching a YouTube video about final. But yeah, so apparently when he um when so there's he joined and he was like awful at the start. And then I think slot got his hands on him. And then he just exploded in the season where they won the league, I think.
00:46:56
Global Sports Podcast Network
um Because that that that whole thing of like when Slop was there for a while and the whole thing was that he had one season where I think he was taught they were topped by quite a lot of points and they got they just cancelled their season for Covid. Like when Covid hit they just cancelled it.
00:47:14
Global Sports Podcast Network
um But obviously i don't I don't know if he was in that team that won the league, I imagine he was. But yeah, they um they had someone else there who ended up moving and then he stepped in and then he banged like 25 goals or something like that. um I quite like it to be fair. I've actually never got to see him play because I think in the Man City game where they came back, I think he'd only just come back from quite a lengthy injury.
00:47:38
Jamie
Yeah, he didn't start the season this like this year because he's been injured to begin with, so he's only started I think the last seven games.
00:47:38
Global Sports Podcast Network
um
00:47:40
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah.
00:47:46
Global Sports Podcast Network
Yeah, so I didn't get the chance to actually watch him play, but I do feel like he has sort of everything that we've the sort of like theme of what we've all gone for in all of these picks. I feel like he does fit into that as well.
00:47:59
blessings
Yeah, I'm not sure, to be honest. I just don't think the Eredivisie players coming to the Premier League, it just does not translate well.
00:48:11
Jamie
Mm, that is true.
00:48:12
blessings
ah
00:48:12
Global Sports Podcast Network
That's fair enough. man
00:48:13
Jamie
Yeah, no, that is, that is fair concern.
00:48:13
blessings
ah One thing I would say that I'll admit, I've not seen much of him and I have heard good things. I've heard it about his sort of ability in the box, lots of one-touch finishes.
00:48:27
blessings
I'd love to see that, but yeah, I don't know about Fahrenheit. Don't know about the Aerodivisie.
00:48:32
Jamie
Mm.
00:48:33
Global Sports Podcast Network
v
00:48:33
blessings
I'm not sure.
00:48:35
Global Sports Podcast Network
here right We need to give ratings, bless.
00:48:36
Jamie
ah gar
00:48:39
Global Sports Podcast Network
What are you going for?
00:48:42
blessings
I'm going to go for a 7. I was a bit underwhelmed with the last one. um
00:48:50
Jamie
Oh, oh no.
00:48:51
Global Sports Podcast Network
ah um
00:48:53
Jamie
Well, if you knew Akatike would have been higher.
00:48:54
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah goes sir
00:48:56
blessings
yeah yeah yeah would
00:48:58
Jamie
oh
00:48:58
blessings
good ah thousand I really liked your cheap one um but yeah I was a bit underwhelmed with the last one.
00:49:00
Jamie
yet
00:49:07
Global Sports Podcast Network
a cheap one again yeah the cheap one was decent too far um i'm gonna give 7.5 because i think that i think with the incunco one i feel like if he wasn't
00:49:08
Jamie
Mikatatsu.
00:49:08
blessings
um it to attack
00:49:22
Global Sports Podcast Network
because I'm pretty sure he's like almost certain to join Bayern. If it wasn't for that, then I would probably give it an eight because I like all the players.
00:49:25
Jamie
um
00:49:31
Global Sports Podcast Network
um i'm I quite like Jimenez, so it's just it's just a difference in opinion. but um Because in Cuckoo, I know it's outrageous, but its like it's impossible, I feel like, at the moment.
00:49:44
Jamie
Yeah. ah one yeah
00:49:45
Global Sports Podcast Network
but so i mean i reckon you're like You're like four days out from that being an eight, 8.45, I reckon.
00:49:47
Jamie
um
00:49:50
Jamie
yeah We did it last week. What a shout.
00:49:52
Global Sports Podcast Network
yeah yeah yeah so what
00:49:52
blessings
yeah but you said benjamin sesco like you said benjamin sesco that's impossible man yeah it's not done yet though is it
00:49:55
Jamie
yeah true yeah the door still open if we just give him our 80 million we might as well get joker edge while we're there as well
00:49:57
Global Sports Podcast Network
do you mean yeah but it's not impossible no it's not it's not impossible if you throw enough money at them and but no no have you felt like because if in cuckoo signs for um if he signs for by munich you can't sign him do you know what i mean whereas like with sesco
00:50:24
Global Sports Podcast Network
I don't know, mate, you not rated mine higher, so...
00:50:27

Global Sports Podcast Network
Do you know what I mean? So anyway, yeah, so I'm going to give it a 7.5. I don't know. I'm not doing the maths. I don't know who you've got. I think it is Bless.
