Let's just really quickly break down 28 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: the big picture here. In the Champions League, City is 29 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: your favorite at plus two twenty five. Bayern Munich second 30 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: choice plus three fifty, Napoli four to one, Real Madrid 31 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,119 Speaker 1: plus six fifty. Then Benfica, Inter and Chelsea are all 32 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: fourteen to one. Acey Milan is the biggest long shot 33 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: left in the field. They are twenty to one City 34 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: and Bayern. As fate would have it, we'll be playing 35 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: each other in the quarter finals. Once again, a lopsided 36 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 1: job hat has a sense of humor. This year. City 37 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: is a minus one thirty eight favorite. In the opening 38 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:10,239 Speaker 1: leg at Dietzi had Byron plus three fifty. The draw 39 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,520 Speaker 1: is three to one. City is minus two hundred two 40 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: advanced Byron plus one fifty. City got a pretty big 41 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: boost this weekend in the Premier League. They won Arsenal 42 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 1: True with Liverpool. They now control their own destiny in 43 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: the title race. It's a war on two fronts for 44 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,400 Speaker 1: Pep and his men. This is a really tricky matchup, though. 45 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: I think we've all been a little bit skeptical Bayern 46 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: Munich this year, but that's going to take away from 47 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: the fact that they are one of the top ten 48 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: team in European soccer, right, top five, top two. 49 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 4: Anthony sis I would have them second. I think you 50 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 4: can debate that, But. 51 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 1: The point is, I think if you've listened to our 52 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 1: Champions League episodes, you probably thought, we like to poke 53 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: holes in this team. But when you're dealing with one 54 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 1: of the best teams in the world, that's what you 55 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: have to do, right. You're trying to find a way 56 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: to bring them down. Well, when you're looking at teams 57 00:02:58,320 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 1: at the bottom half of the table, you're trying to 58 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: find way that you can bring them up. So if 59 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: this is one versus two in your power rankings, I 60 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 1: think you'd have to look at the underdog or nothing. 61 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: But the two advanced line I don't think gets me excited. 62 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 1: Maybe Buyern to advance should they lose like one nil 63 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 1: or two to one. It's interesting. Otherwise, from like the 64 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: ninety minute line, it would be Buyern or nothing for me. Anthony, 65 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: what are your thoughts? 66 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, this market moves heavy in the last week, because 67 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 4: we hinted at this last week on the show and 68 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 4: City was like minus one thirty, and I would have 69 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 4: recommended a bet on Man City at that number, But 70 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 4: now I mean minus one eighty minus one ninety two hundred, 71 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 4: way too steep. I have City around sixty one percent 72 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 4: to go through when I ran my numbers, so and 73 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 4: that's like making everything fifty to fifty after they get 74 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 4: to extra time too coin flip. So I'm not going 75 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 4: to be able to get to this number in either 76 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 4: leg on Man City. A reader reached out to me 77 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 4: and said, you know, why do you hate City so much? 78 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 4: It's really a relative to the market. Like I still 79 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 4: have said all year that they're the best team in 80 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 4: the world, and I bet them repeatedly now to win 81 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 4: the league, which we're now odds on to do. But 82 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 4: the problem here is where is Byron better than City 83 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 4: on the pitch? Like I know the combined XI is corny, 84 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 4: like combined eleven is corny. But how many Bayern players 85 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 4: make it into the City team. I would argue it's 86 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 4: like two. It's like Kimmick and Musila are probably the 87 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 4: only two players that I take from Byron and insert 88 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 4: into this City team maybe I guess Alfonso Davies otherwise, 89 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,920 Speaker 4: like I'm taking City at every other position. From a 90 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 4: tactical point of view, we've seen this so many times 91 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 4: now where Pep does this this thing in the Champions League. 92 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 4: They're a little bit too passive and they get a 93 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 4: little bit too cute. But it's almost been kind of, 94 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 4: I don't want to say solved this year, but at 95 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 4: least somewhat fixed by the fact they just have a 96 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 4: bulldozer of a striker who you just put on the 97 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 4: pitch and then he just scores the goals and it 98 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 4: kind of solves the tactical problem that Pep has always 99 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 4: had where he doesn't have like a true nine all 100 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 4: the time, at least in the Postaguero era. So I 101 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 4: would lean toward the under here solely based on me 102 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 4: still not really being much of a believer in a 103 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 4: Bayern tack against elite competition led by Eric Maxim Chugumoting 104 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 4: still have question marks about that, and really, with this 105 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,359 Speaker 4: being a first leg, you normally are paying attacks. And 106 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 4: we'll talk about this with the other matches, like there 107 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 4: is an under tax in a couple of these games. 108 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,239 Speaker 4: This game less so sitting a little over or sitting 109 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 4: right at three minus one twenty to the under, that 110 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:21,799 Speaker 4: would be my bet if I had to bet anything 111 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 4: right now. I'm going to wait because I think there's 112 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 4: a chance this goes up to three point twenty five 113 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 4: and I can bet it there, whereas I want that 114 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 4: three protection because I do see this game being a 115 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 4: little bit lower scoring, both teams feeling each other out, 116 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 4: trying not to lose the tie in the first. 117 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: Line, Yeah, it does feel like it calls for a 118 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 1: pretty pragmatic approach from City. 119 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 4: And then you say that and then they bury six, 120 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 4: So Pollin does the goals right. 121 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 1: It's so it's famous less words, but it does like 122 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: feel like that. And I'll also say this, like, whoever 123 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 1: comes out of this high like you feel like you 124 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: almost bet against them in the next They're going to 125 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 1: be a massive favorite, obviously to win the competition, and 126 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,040 Speaker 1: I think the price will just be inflated because this 127 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: will be viewed as their biggest step and that naturally 128 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: will inflate the price in the semi final, whoever gets 129 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 1: through BJ Which way are you leaning here? 130 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm leaning kind of with what Anthony was saying. 131 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 2: I'm kind of leaning towards taking City. But from a 132 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 2: pre match standpoint, I have City projected at minus one 133 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 2: thirty four, so I can't play them pre match around 134 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 2: you know, minus one thirty minus one thirty five. Know 135 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 2: where it's gotten up to. But I think the fascinating 136 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 2: part of this is, you know, Anthony likes to talk 137 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: about this in the Champions League, which is a very 138 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 2: very key. It's these teams who are used to controlling 139 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 2: a lot of possession who now are not going to 140 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 2: have the ball. My guess is that City's going to 141 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 2: control a majority of the possession in this match, which 142 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 2: means Byron is going to have to sit and defend. 143 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,960 Speaker 2: There have been four instances this season where Byron has 144 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 2: held less than fifty percent possession. It was both matches 145 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 2: against Barcelona. One of the matches was a fortwo win 146 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 2: over Wolfsburg where they created half an expected goal and 147 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 2: scored four times, and then the second leg against PSG, 148 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 2: when they already had a lead they were playing more 149 00:06:55,839 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 2: defensive so two coal in the past with Chelsea has 150 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 2: been a good pressing team, like their pass per defensive 151 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 2: action was eight point seven last season, but they had 152 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 2: the same number of high turnovers as Brentford, so a 153 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,320 Speaker 2: lot of their pressing was done in their own final third. 154 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 2: You know when teams have entered and try and then 155 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 2: basically try to get the ball and get it going 156 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 2: on the counter. Now, what City did against Southampton I 157 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 2: think is important. What they've been doing recently and why 158 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 2: they've had this great run is pep is getting the 159 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 2: ball in wide areas a lot more. If you look 160 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 2: at the match against Liverpool, the Bruyna constantly was going 161 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 2: into wide areas trying to pull Liverpool defenders out of 162 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: the way to create space in the middle of the pitch. 163 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 2: And you know Grealish and Marez have been attacking from 164 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 2: wide areas into the middle of the pitch as well. 165 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 2: And against Southampton you saw a very pragmatic, slow build 166 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 2: up style play to begin the match. It's because they 167 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 2: wanted Southampton to They wanted to bate them into pressing 168 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 2: so they could play right through them, create opportunities going 169 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 2: in transition, create numbers going forward. I think the same 170 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 2: is going to happen here. So I'm going to try 171 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 2: to look at get Manchester City Live after about the 172 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 2: twentieth minute or so to see how this match plays 173 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 2: out because I do think Byron comes out in a 174 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 2: very passive approach. Coach sits in a very deep, low block. 175 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 2: But as the match progresses and goes on, City is 176 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 2: going to continue to bait them to press, and once 177 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 2: Byron tries to press, because under the last two managers, 178 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 2: they've obviously been a very aggressive pressing, counter pressing team, 179 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 2: trying to keep teams in their own final thirds. So 180 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 2: I think it's a good opportunity for City. Once Byron 181 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 2: does start to come out of this like low block, 182 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 2: defensive shape start pressing them, I think City will find 183 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 2: their way through. So I'm gonna look to get a 184 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 2: better price than City Live. Other than that, I mean 185 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 2: the price has just gotten like Anthony said, the price 186 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 2: has gotten too high for City to play them pre match. 187 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 2: At this point, it feels like the. 188 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: Good news that City got this weekend is kind of 189 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: just like seeped into everything, like it just it feels like. 190 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 2: And one thing also I'll mention is that Tukle is 191 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 2: still trying to figure things out, Like this is what 192 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 2: match three or four of him in charge right now. 193 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 2: He's been going up with different build up shapes, trying 194 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:50,920 Speaker 2: to go forward like he still tried because he doesn't 195 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 2: have you know, besides Stupa Mote, he doesn't have a 196 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 2: true number nine up top. And against Freiburg he tried 197 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 2: it with Gnarby and they had a great match, Like 198 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 2: they carried over three and a half expected goals. They 199 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 2: were really really good. But what also what he's been 200 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 2: doing is he's been inverting Cansalo into the middle of 201 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:04,959 Speaker 2: the pitch and build a play, which can Sale is 202 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 2: one of the best inverting left backs in the world. Well, 203 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 2: guess what, he's not available for this match because he's 204 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 2: on loan. This is his parent clubs, So that's another 205 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 2: situation that Byron's going to have to try to figure out. 206 00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:15,839 Speaker 1: So yeah, it's it. 207 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 2: Almost feels just like be a square and just play city. 208 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:20,439 Speaker 2: But no, I think I'm gonna try to get them 209 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 2: live though, we'll hope, I guess hope to get them live. 210 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 4: I think Cancelo has already been frozen out at Bayern, 211 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 4: maybe not so much with Tukul coming in, but it 212 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 4: didn't seem too optimistic for him anyway, because he had 213 00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 4: certainly had a falling out with the former manager. I'll 214 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 4: be looking to play like we don't have props up yet. 215 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 4: We're recording the Sunday night. I'll be interested to see 216 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 4: what that Byron shot number looks like and potentially looking 217 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 4: to play the under. I'll tweet it or put it 218 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 4: in the app if I end up betting it, but 219 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 4: I will be interested because I do think that what 220 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 4: we've seen under two could time and time again, is 221 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 4: that they're prioritizing quality shots over quantity. And if they 222 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 4: do that in this matchup against a city team that's 223 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 4: going to want a strangle possession, I think that results 224 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 4: in fewer shots than maybe the market thinks. Of course 225 00:09:58,679 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 4: it's correlated to the under as well. 226 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,959 Speaker 1: That's definitely gonna be the headliner on Tuesday, three pm 227 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: Eastern Time kickoffs. The other match on that day is 228 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: Benfica at home as a plus one ten favorite on 229 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: the three way money line against Inter plus two to sixty. 230 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: The draw is three to one to advance Benfica slight 231 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 1: slight slight favorite at bet three sixty five minus one 232 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 1: twenty five over Inter. I don't have anything here. I 233 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 1: think if you're going to play one of these teams 234 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 1: to advance like I would almost just point to like 235 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: a future or whatever. But I think everyone's gonna expect 236 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 1: it to be pretty low scoring and like a rock 237 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 1: fight of over two legs. So maybe there's some gagrarian 238 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: value on going with the over, but other than that, 239 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 1: it's going to be a pass for me. It looks 240 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 1: like a pass for you. Anthony BJ, what do you have? 241 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 2: I don't mind a look at Inter plus a half 242 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 2: you can find him that, you know. I found it 243 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 2: as low as as minus one thirty two as of 244 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,079 Speaker 2: right before recording this. Because Benefica has taken some money, 245 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 2: Like they opened at plus one twenty five, they've come 246 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 2: down to plus one ten at some books, so the 247 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 2: price is getting there on Inter and you know, I 248 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,839 Speaker 2: talked about entering the last podcast and they did it again. 249 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 2: But you know, salad aitano Ochoa, they both owned me. 250 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,600 Speaker 2: But intercreated close to the three expected goals only found 251 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 2: the pack of the net once. So that's in their 252 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 2: last four matches in Syria, I they've scored two goals 253 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 2: off of ten point six expected. That's insanely bad luck. 254 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 2: So listen now, the last in the round of sixteen, 255 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 2: they squeaked by Porto. They were you could argue they 256 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 2: were not the better side. Over over two legs and 257 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 2: they played very passive, especially in that second leg. While 258 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 2: Enter is a very good pressing team. First leg passed 259 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 2: the per defensive action of six point two, second leg 260 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 2: thirteen point six. They had a lead, so they sat 261 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 2: on it and they didn't press, they didn't go forward 262 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 2: as much. But overall for the season they are a 263 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 2: very good pressing team. They've forced the second most high 264 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 2: turnovers in Italy their top five and passed per defensive action, 265 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 2: which I think is important because Benefica hasn't really played 266 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 2: a really really good pressing team throughout the Champions League. 267 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 2: If you look at their group stage, they were in 268 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 2: a group with PSG and Juventus, who had a possession, 269 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 2: are both very assive teams. Then they lucked into a 270 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,719 Speaker 2: draw against Bruges, who is a complete fraud but did 271 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 2: give them some trouble with their pressing, and like the 272 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 2: first twenty minutes, Anthony will tell you that, and then 273 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 2: after that it was just one way traffic for Benefica. 274 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 2: But I don't really think Benefica is especially from a 275 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,559 Speaker 2: talent perspective, like they don't have more talent than Inter, 276 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 2: so why are they garnering this price? And even if 277 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 2: you look right before the Champions League, they had a 278 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 2: couple of poor performances, like they beat Rio av in 279 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 2: the Portuguese Premier LEGA won nothing, but they lost the 280 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 2: expected goals battle there. They just played Porto on Friday, 281 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 2: they lost to to one to them. That's the best 282 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 2: competition they've played since the middle of January. So now 283 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 2: we're getting in a situation where they haven't played that 284 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: good competition, where Inter has been really underperforming. Who is 285 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 2: on Inters also getting their best defender Screener back, who's 286 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 2: been out for a long time due to injury. He 287 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 2: is incredibly important to their defense. So I don't really 288 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 2: see why Benefica should just be an odds on favorite 289 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 2: here at home. I get it, They're underlying metrics in 290 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 2: Portugal are really impressive. They've been really, really good throughout 291 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 2: the Champions League. But you know, I have been projected 292 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 2: around plus one forty, so I'm going to take Inter 293 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 2: plus a half because again, this is the first leg 294 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 2: and they just need to draw to get this thing 295 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 2: back to Milan. So I don't see it. I don't 296 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 2: understand why Benefica is essentially odds on here given that 297 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,079 Speaker 2: they don't have a talent edge over Intern. 298 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, the only thing that does concern me 299 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 4: is that I don't know what to make of Inter 300 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 4: because on Earth one, like they have a perfectly fine 301 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 4: finishing season, they're comfortably second in Italy. We don't have 302 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:40,280 Speaker 4: these question marks about Martinez and Mucaku, who have both 303 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 4: been in just awful form finishing wise, and then at 304 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 4: the other end, like they've conceded well above their XG, 305 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 4: they've had really poor goalkeeping all season. So it just 306 00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 4: feels like that I agree with this number in general, 307 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 4: with Benfica and Inter being about even teams. I have 308 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 4: been Fika a small favorite to advance, very tight though 309 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 4: minus one oh five, and so I don't really have 310 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 4: value on either side of this matchup. I was hoping 311 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 4: to play an under because I do think Inter will 312 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 4: defend pretty conservatively here and dare Benfica to beat them down, 313 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 4: and Benfica has not played a team that's as good 314 00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 4: defensively as this Inter one is in the entire group stage. 315 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 4: It's kind of what you said, BJ, so I would 316 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 4: certainly lean toward the under, but you're paying a huge 317 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 4: tax on this under two and a half, so I 318 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:30,280 Speaker 4: can't quite get there. This is for me a good 319 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 4: live betting situation. I will probably live pet the other team, 320 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 4: whoever concedes first. I would be happy to grab the 321 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 4: other team to advance as a big plus money team, 322 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 4: because I do think this will be a very even 323 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 4: tie when it comes down to it after one to eighty. 324 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 4: But I don't want to lay either team as a favorite. 325 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 4: Inter really did struggle with Porto. Porto isn't as good 326 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 4: as Benfica. Benfica has the better attackers to take advantage 327 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 4: maybe two if Inter is very passive and conceding a 328 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 4: ton of space. 329 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: Let's flip to Wednesday. We'll start with Madrid and Chelsea. 330 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: Real Madrid might as won forty three, Chelsea four to one. 331 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: Frank Lampard's Chelsea. 332 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 2: Can they sack him right now? 333 00:15:10,200 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: The druss Put's. 334 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,880 Speaker 4: Still trying to hire Jesse Marsh. 335 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 2: He's not going to no, as you know, and you know, 336 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 2: unfortunately we didn't get in this with Arap and Aaldo. 337 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 2: But I'm sure Marsh asks for a long term contract 338 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 2: unless you was like, no, not at all, that'd be 339 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 2: my guess. But looks like talks are broken down again 340 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 2: between those two. 341 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 1: Well here Bridriid is minus two fifty and Chelsea's plus 342 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 1: one seventy five. We've said it a couple of times. 343 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 1: I'm sticking to it. I don't I'm not just gonna 344 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: let the one game under Frank Lampard Act two to 345 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: ter me Act three. Yeah, I think Chelsea is still 346 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: a good bet to win the whole thing at fourteen 347 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: to one. 348 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 4: You're not betting against Carlo no, I mean, I love. 349 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: Carlo, who's the best manager in the world besides Sean Ditsch. 350 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 1: But I know why Chelsea is hanging at the same 351 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: price as Benfica inter. It's because they've got a much 352 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 1: more difficult quarterfinal match. But should they get through, that 353 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 1: means that they're going to be in a quarterfinal or 354 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,800 Speaker 1: as soon as be semi final with one of City 355 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 1: and Byron. Sure, or they could draw Benfica or Mot Right, 356 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: Like the path is there. They just got to get 357 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: through Real Madrid, which is gonna be tough. 358 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 4: Well, then also City or Byron. 359 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 1: Right, yeah, but like if you get some draw luck. 360 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 4: Hope we already have the draw though. It was my 361 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 4: point though, yeah, right, but you would see them in 362 00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 4: the last I wouldn't make them more than plus two 363 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,640 Speaker 4: fifty to get through either of those teams, Chelsea or 364 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 4: buyern Our City. 365 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's the point. 366 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 4: I mean, yeah, the argument is that, like, why is 367 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 4: Real Madrid so much more of a favorite over Chelsea. 368 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 4: I don't think they should be. I make Real Madrid 369 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 4: minus one twenty two to advance. So yeah, favored, but 370 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 4: not that much. And yeah, I know I love Chelsea 371 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 4: and I bet them every week and they let me 372 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 4: down consistently. But I think this is a decent matchup 373 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 4: and the lynchpin is back. I bet Chelsea Saturday, woke up, 374 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 4: saw the market move forty cents. I was like, oh, 375 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 4: Chelsea's minus one four, Now, that's great. That must mean 376 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 4: we have like the All Stars playing. And then I 377 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 4: look and goal Kanye is not even in the team. 378 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 4: That was a little bizarre. It was very obvious to 379 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 4: me though, that they held him out. They're done in England, 380 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 4: which I think we need to consider. Now Conte's back. 381 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 4: That's an elite three man midfield, and I think the 382 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 4: biggest thing here is Venetias Junior cooked Liverpool in the 383 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 4: last round. Alexon Arnold's very spotted defensively, Reece James considerably better. 384 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 4: I think that makes a huge difference defensively trying to 385 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 4: you know, go at Real's best player in this tournament. 386 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 4: So I like the athleticism advantage for Chelsea in the midfield. 387 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 4: I think they'll be able to play an underdog role here, 388 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 4: which is interesting against Reale because Real doesn't have a 389 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 4: great transition defense. Chelsea is kind of built that way 390 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 4: with Havertz and Felix. Like, I'm intrigued by this, especially 391 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 4: with Conte manning the midfield that I'm going to take 392 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 4: the Blues plus a half and to advance. I know, 393 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 4: I fade Real all the time. I lose all the 394 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 4: time at Chelsea and has not gone well in the 395 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 4: last month, but the Blues can absolutely score. 396 00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 1: This time is a little different, I feel like, I 397 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: feel like when you're usually fading them, you're doing it 398 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 1: with them as a either uneven footing with the team 399 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: that they're going up against, the team like Liverpool, or 400 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: as an underdog. This time you got a light it 401 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: with Real Madrid, which it makes it makes it a 402 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: little big difference. Yeah, it's a different their magic show, 403 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 1: Like when you're betting them as an underdog, you're part 404 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 1: of it, like you're you're like, okay, let's cook up 405 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: some of this. You know, Real Madrid dark magic, because 406 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: that's what you need an underdog to do. But when 407 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: you're relying on that stuff as a favorite, it's a 408 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 1: very different situation. 409 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 4: And Real struggled in the group stage with Leipzig as 410 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 4: a favorite and two separate occasions even at home. You know, 411 00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 4: it came out first fifteen to twenty minutes totally flat. 412 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 4: Maybe Chelsea to score first is intriguing. It could be 413 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 4: really interesting because we've seen it. That first half at 414 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 4: Anfield still happened. I know, the second half, I know 415 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 4: they dominated the last you know hour, but that first 416 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 4: half when they couldn't get out there and half still happened. 417 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 4: In that Liverpool tie, Real Madrid still got their butts 418 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:57,520 Speaker 4: beat in by Virial at home this weekend. Like I 419 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 4: know that it's Champions leagu voodoo, but it can't be that. 420 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 4: So by the way, that regret, but that spot, why 421 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 4: didn't we have the real? But I will once again 422 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 4: hitch my wagon to the Blues. 423 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 2: How much are you putting on them doing the Mayor 424 00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:12,160 Speaker 2: League next year? 425 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 4: I don't see myself that it with Brighton, I mean 426 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 4: Chelsea's if they had kept Potter and signed to True nine. 427 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 4: I think I could have sold myself on it, but 428 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 4: not not. 429 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:23,159 Speaker 1: Probably not. 430 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 2: What about Deserbey and Evan Ferguson, Yes, I. 431 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 4: Think they're just gonna lose Deserbe. 432 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, probably. Well the good thing to Premier League forced 433 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 2: Brighton out of the top four after this weekend against 434 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:36,400 Speaker 2: Toddy that was horrible. 435 00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 4: I was sickened as a Tottenham fantasy. 436 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 2: I was sickened too. They just want all the big 437 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,399 Speaker 2: six in the top four. This is why they kept 438 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 2: Everton out all these years. Michael, Yeah, it's just it's sickening. 439 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 2: But no, I mean I got listen, I got nothing 440 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 2: on this match. I did find an interesting that Lampard 441 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:57,040 Speaker 2: switched Chelsea back to his patented four three three. Adding 442 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 2: Conte to that obviously helps a little bit, but you know, 443 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,120 Speaker 2: it's changing a system, you know, and it's a second 444 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 2: match in charge. So I think I'm just going to 445 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,960 Speaker 2: stay away. I don't trust Frank Lampard, especially his Everton's 446 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 2: teams were so bad in transition defense and Real Madrid 447 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 2: going in transitions one of the most scary teams in 448 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 2: the world. So I have Real Madrid projected right around 449 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 2: where this is at so I'm happily going to pass 450 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 2: and watch the Blues create two and a half expected 451 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 2: goals and lose one nothing. 452 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,199 Speaker 4: Reech James and Golokante though they're the stoppers, and I 453 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 4: think that is just so huge in this matchup. I 454 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 4: think that's the difference. I'm assuming Kante is good to 455 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 4: go and I just don't understand the move. I mean, 456 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 4: it opened Real Madrid was minus one thirty and I agreed, 457 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 4: and now they're minus two hundred plus. It's crazy. 458 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: I rarely go against Real Madrid, and like I said, 459 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: I think the draw has had a lot to do 460 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: with that because of who they've drawn, the team that 461 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 1: I just never been on in Liverpool basically, but this 462 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 1: time around, like I even think that it's that Madrid. Right. 463 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 1: If Real Madrid goes back to Chelsea with a one 464 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:58,400 Speaker 1: zero lead. 465 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 4: We're gonna get Chelsea pick them and money and. 466 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: I mean, like honestly back to the Chelsea future. Well, 467 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 1: like I would say it again like and and maybe 468 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,159 Speaker 1: it sounds like a broken record because we were banging 469 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 1: the Leipzig drum BJ not me, no I know, but 470 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 1: me and and that was a huge number which Chelsea 471 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:19,640 Speaker 1: is fourteen to one to win it. Now, if they 472 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 1: they lose by one, this number is going to fly 473 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 1: through the roofs. And like this is this I think 474 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 1: all three of us would agree that, Like the ceiling 475 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: for Chelsea is fourth high worth, fourth wourth. 476 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, I would say that, Well, I think Chelsea's ceiling 477 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 4: is still higher than Real Madrid's. 478 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: What about Napoli? No, right, so fourth yeah yeah, and 479 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: one of one of the teams ahead of them is 480 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: gonna be gone. 481 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, although one team has done them and the other 482 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 4: team doesn't, so that that yeah, no, I don't know, 483 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 4: it'll be close. 484 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 1: And this is the same number basically that they were 485 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:55,400 Speaker 1: going into the tournament and there and they were they were. 486 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 2: I know it's a different team, different manager, different players, 487 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 2: but like they were better than Real Madrid in the 488 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 2: Champions League last year for both legs. If you remember 489 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 2: that first leg that was at Chelsea, there is just 490 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 2: two really dumb mistakes that they made that essentially led 491 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 2: to two Real Madrid goals and like Ben's mos justns 492 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 2: like god like finishing rate. And then Chelsea if we remember, 493 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 2: like they came back and they were going through at 494 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 2: one second leg, it's a completely different Chelsea team now, 495 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 2: Like there's still a few players here and there. It's 496 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 2: a completely different manager, so you can't really take much 497 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 2: away from it. But it's pretty much the same real 498 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:31,400 Speaker 2: Madrid team. 499 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: So and I also will say I don't think Frank 500 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: Lampard's managerial flaws because he's only been back for a 501 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:44,399 Speaker 1: Fortnite and it basically now less will wreck this right, 502 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: Like he's not coming in and changing the system to 503 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 1: what he played at Everton and played at Chelsea. Pretty 504 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,480 Speaker 1: too cool. What could he have done to completely change 505 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 1: this team from what they were playing under Potter, which 506 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: was going really well. It's just the nets were sorrean rapped. 507 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 1: So yep, Chelsea. I think the where are they right 508 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 1: now in the Premier League? Eleven eleven eleven? Yeah, the 509 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: eleventh place team in the Premier League. 510 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 4: Maybe they've scored fewer goals than pass. 511 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, they've scored fewer fewer goals than early Holland there 512 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 5: there there, they're sitting behind I mean, yeah, they've scored 513 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 5: fewer goals, but I mean Roy Hodgson's palaces, the team 514 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:23,640 Speaker 5: sitting behind Villa Brighton, Brentford, Fulham. 515 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 2: Tune in Thursday for Roy Hodgson love Fest. 516 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 4: I can't wait to ask bj about Arsenal waiting all day. 517 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: But it does feel good to bet, to say, to 518 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 1: bet the eleventh best team or the eleventh place team 519 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 1: in the Premier League. 520 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 2: People a preview, We're fine, everything's fine or x G. 521 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 2: It's no need to overreact. 522 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 4: It's a beautiful second half. Okay, that's what's next? Last game? 523 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, can you guess which one it is? 524 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 2: Agreement ahead. 525 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 4: I'm stunned the days on. Actually I'm not that stunned. 526 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:54,200 Speaker 1: It's hilarious that there's three Italian teams in this final. 527 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 2: League and coficial in the Europa League who have a 528 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 2: real chance Evey and Roma, and you're second favorite to 529 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 2: win the Conference league. 530 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,439 Speaker 1: Fiorentina could be the trouble and. 531 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:08,639 Speaker 2: Lazio is gonna be the Champions League next year. Of 532 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 2: all the top four, Yeah, they're gonna finish. 533 00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 1: For this one. For this one, Milan's plus one ninety 534 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: at home, hosting Napoli plus one fifty five on the road, 535 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: the only road favorite on the board. The draws plus 536 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: two twenty to advance Napoli minus one eighty eight a 537 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: Milan plus one thirty seven. I'll let you guys take 538 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:35,280 Speaker 1: it over. I'm spending Wednesday with my beautiful Frank Lampard 539 00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:39,199 Speaker 1: and Frank Lampard and Chelsea. You guys, though, are on 540 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: opposite sides here, BJ you. 541 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,479 Speaker 2: Know what going into this, Michael I was with Anthony. 542 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, probably a good Napoli spot here after 543 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 2: Aceman just hummeled them for nothing. And then I looked 544 00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 2: at my projections and I looked at the odds, and 545 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:55,000 Speaker 2: I was like, wait, Napoli's kind of a road favorite here. 546 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 2: I don't know if I necessarily agree with that. Now 547 00:24:57,840 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 2: I get it, and Anthony is gonna tell you that 548 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:03,120 Speaker 2: Napolei didn't want to show anything and so they basically 549 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 2: just handed Acey Milan that match to Forrozos four nothing. 550 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 2: It doesn't actually mean anything because they've already got the 551 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 2: Syria title wrapped up. Ocehman didn't play, so yeah, it 552 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 2: doesn't matter. Nothing from that match matter at all. Well, 553 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 2: if we go back to September eighteenth, when these two 554 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 2: teams met the last time, Milan pumped Napoli again, Napolei 555 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 2: won the match to one, but Acey Milan outshot them 556 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 2: eleven to three, in the first half, Napoli got a 557 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 2: cheap penalty right out of halftime, Milan equalized and then 558 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 2: Napoli scored a low quality header to win to one. 559 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,919 Speaker 2: But let's go back to the four nothing drubbing on 560 00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 2: April second, because what Milan did an incredible job of 561 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 2: in that match, which I think they can do a 562 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:47,560 Speaker 2: great job of in this one as well and give 563 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 2: Napoli all problems, is they were incredibly aggressive with their 564 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,679 Speaker 2: man marking and their pressing in the midfield. Milan in 565 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,360 Speaker 2: the middle of the pitch won sixteen of twenty one 566 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:02,119 Speaker 2: ground battles against Napoli's mid field and it was one 567 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 2: of the more troubling matches for Napoli in their build 568 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 2: up play. Because Napoli is one of the best build 569 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:11,879 Speaker 2: up possession teams in the world. They're incredibly good at it, 570 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:13,879 Speaker 2: so you have to be able to disrupt that if 571 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 2: you want to beat them, and Milan did an incredible 572 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 2: job of that. Now, Oshman didn't play in that match, 573 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 2: and I'm not so sure he's going to play in 574 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 2: this one. Everything I'm reading is like he could be 575 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 2: out for the rest of the year. He could be 576 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 2: back for this match. I'm not really so sure, so 577 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 2: make sure you figure out if he's going to play 578 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,240 Speaker 2: it not before you actually bet this, I guess. But 579 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 2: he was incredibly important to them because not only has 580 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 2: he scored twenty one goals, he has a point seventy 581 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 2: four x cheaper not even scoring rate, but he also 582 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 2: frees up a lot of the pitch for Kabar Scalia 583 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,720 Speaker 2: and what Milan did a great job in the matches 584 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 2: they basically took him away. He had nineteen touches in 585 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 2: the first half. A lot of what Milan's pressing and 586 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:53,200 Speaker 2: structure was designed to funnel the ball and force Napoli 587 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,400 Speaker 2: to funnel the ball to the right side of the pitch. 588 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 2: But when Napoli eventually did get the ball to the 589 00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 2: left because they tried to build up to the left 590 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 2: a lot. Because Gabar Skelly is one of the best 591 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,320 Speaker 2: attackers in the world, Kilaria did an outstanding job man 592 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 2: marking him. So who's to say they can't do that again. 593 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,360 Speaker 2: Now the flip side of it is Napoli was incredibly 594 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 2: poor defensively in that match as well, especially in wide areas. Now, Napoli, 595 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 2: out of possession typically likes to sit back into four 596 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 2: to four to two, which, as we all know, for 597 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 2: four to four to two is it's takeaway in middle 598 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 2: of the pitch, funneled the ball out wide, forced teams 599 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 2: to beat you with crosses. Well, Milan torched them in 600 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 2: wide areas. Briam Diez had a great individual game. He's 601 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 2: the one who led to the pass for the layoff 602 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 2: first goal. Dale Hernandez was incredible up the left side 603 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 2: of the pitch, just swinging cross after cross after cross, 604 00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:37,879 Speaker 2: and they pummeled Napoli in those areas. And who's to 605 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 2: say they can't do that again now, you know, I 606 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,040 Speaker 2: know Napoley's metrics are better than Macy Milon's this season 607 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 2: by a pretty wide margin. But Milan went through a 608 00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,920 Speaker 2: really difficult patch in the middle of the season where 609 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 2: they lost the Super Kopa to Enter, they got pumped 610 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,360 Speaker 2: by Lazzio four to nothing, they lost five two to 611 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 2: to Swallow, then they lost again to Enter one nothing. 612 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 2: Dale Hernendez did not play in any of those matches, 613 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,040 Speaker 2: and since he had returned to Acey, Milan has been 614 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,160 Speaker 2: much much better and they've been really much a lot 615 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 2: better at home than they've been on the road this season. 616 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 2: So I actually have a cym Milan projected at plus 617 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 2: one fifty five and Napoli at plus one ninety seven. 618 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,360 Speaker 2: So I think the odds should actually be flipped. And 619 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 2: I get it like typical betting tells you like, oh, 620 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:22,160 Speaker 2: this team just won four, nothing like I should bet 621 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 2: the other side try to be smart. Well, given what 622 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,119 Speaker 2: happened that match and given what the odds are right now, 623 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,439 Speaker 2: I don't think that's necessarily true in this one. So 624 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 2: I'm taking Ac Milan, John o Bett at even money. 625 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 2: I think they should be a favorite in this match, 626 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,399 Speaker 2: and I mean we'll see if Ocehman doesn't play like 627 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 2: that's obviously huge for Napoli and Acey Milan can que 628 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 2: in on Cabar Scalio again. So I'm gonna ride with 629 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 2: Acy Milan, John Obett at even money. 630 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 1: Anthony on the other side. 631 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 4: Here, Yeah, yep, I have not actually bet this yet, 632 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 4: which is what I knew BJ was gonna mention the 633 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 4: first leg. Ohaman didn't play in either of the first 634 00:28:54,920 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 4: two matches. I do think he matters. Of course, he's 635 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 4: a significant upgrade over Raspadori, who be the expected starter. 636 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 4: A respiratory is about a point four ish per ninety 637 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 4: striker actually for ninety does add a little bit more 638 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 4: and the rest of his game compared to Oshaman, who's 639 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 4: closer to about point seventy five, getting almost five shots 640 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 4: a game. But I just think when you look across 641 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 4: the board about a month ago, Tottenham was a pick 642 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 4: at Milan even without Victor Oshaman. I think Napoli is 643 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 4: a considerably better team than Tottenham, and I think Milan 644 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 4: has run really well to get to this point that 645 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 4: they got a very favorable group, got to play a 646 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 4: Tottenham team that had all of it's midfield out for 647 00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:39,239 Speaker 4: the first leg. They have or performed to get to 648 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,520 Speaker 4: this point. They have finished at a very high rate. 649 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,239 Speaker 4: They are way too reliant on Leao and I'm not 650 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 4: so sure that the pressing stuff works again because of 651 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 4: all the teams that I was most worried about Napoli facing, 652 00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 4: it was like a team who's a truly big pressing 653 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 4: unit and you just don't get as much of that 654 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 4: in Spain. I think that has played into why Napoli 655 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 4: has been so good, is because when you're press isn't 656 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 4: as active or effective, they're able to get it to 657 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 4: Kvard Scialia, who gives runs at your defenders and like, 658 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 4: who's the right back to slow down kavard Scillia Because yes, 659 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 4: Napoli didn't have the typical Napoli game in the last meeting. Again, 660 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 4: like I think it's very hard to get up for 661 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,720 Speaker 4: them right now, like they're very much focused only on 662 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,240 Speaker 4: the Champions League and have the league wrapped. But he 663 00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 4: was still getting the ball into the penalty area at 664 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,480 Speaker 4: a decent rate. It just wasn't coming off. Now, some 665 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,800 Speaker 4: of that is Oceman not being there, But I still 666 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 4: make Napoli a favorite. You can apply a change without Oceman. 667 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 4: I think that Milan will close a favorite if he's out, 668 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 4: And thus I'm gonna wait on this, but I'm betting 669 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 4: Napoli either way. 670 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: All right? 671 00:30:41,280 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 4: To be fun, No, Well, last time we went head tohead, 672 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 4: I got cooked. So you had to head hitched. 673 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 2: Your wagon into a bunch of frauds, Anthony. I know 674 00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 2: Naply aren't a bunch of frauds, although. 675 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,240 Speaker 4: That's the reality. Napolei's been like six tenths of a 676 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 4: goal better in Italy this year perm ninety. It hasn't. 677 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 2: They've also beaten up on lower competition as well. Like 678 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 2: I get it, like it's they've pumped a lot of these, 679 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 2: you know, lower half of the table Italian sides, and 680 00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 2: I just mentioned like asy Mlan's gone through rough patches 681 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 2: like it's not to say like they're I don't think 682 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 2: there's significantly worst team than Napoli overall taking everything into account, 683 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 2: but we'll see, we'll see what happens. 684 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 1: Okay, before we get to our chat with Eric Wenalda, 685 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 1: talk some Champions League with him, some other stuff. Interesting 686 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 1: conversation about some of the best stadium atmospheres in soccer 687 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: as well. Let's talk little Europa League real quick. BJ 688 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 1: laying some serious wood with Jose. 689 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, plus a half minus one fifty. I typically don't 690 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 2: like to do this, but given the situation that we're 691 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 2: in where it is the first leg, where all they 692 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 2: need is a draw to get this thing back to Italy, 693 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 2: I have to lay. Like I make Roma a favorite 694 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 2: here against fine Ord. I mean this is a repeat, right, 695 00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 2: This is the Europa Conference League final from last season. 696 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 2: Romo won that match one nothing. They scored in the 697 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 2: thirty second in it, and bayn Ord did basically nothing 698 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 2: the remainder of the match, like they created in total 699 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,040 Speaker 2: point eight expected goals. They didn't have a shot with 700 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 2: an actually rating over point two and Rama just continually 701 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 2: over and over again, that's shown us they're the best 702 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 2: low block team in Europe. The last three matches they've 703 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 2: conceded a total of one point two expected goals. Just 704 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:26,720 Speaker 2: another vintage Jose performance on Saturday where they got a 705 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 2: penalty of the eighth minute against to Reno and just 706 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 2: held them out for the remainder of the match. Trained 707 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 2: it an absolutely nothing point three expected goals again. I'll 708 00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 2: say it again and again. Roma number one in Europe 709 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 2: in final third to penalty box entry conversion rates. That's 710 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:43,400 Speaker 2: how good of a low block they are. I don't 711 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 2: see Fynord getting through and scoring. I think it's a 712 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 2: good spot to lay some juice with Jose to get 713 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 2: a result here in the first leg. 714 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 4: Anthony, Yeah, the market moved. I was going to bet 715 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 4: fine Ord first leg. I had to pick them, but 716 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 4: not anymore because the line has moved. It is now 717 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,920 Speaker 4: minus a quarter. I think Final has more attacking firepower 718 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 4: and can absolutely make Roma uncomfortable defensively and cause some 719 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 4: problems there. And then we don't know what Roma looks 720 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 4: like once they go down. They haven't been playing Tammy's 721 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 4: interesting situation, and they've been in very favorable game states. 722 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 4: Don't worry. I still like Roma to go through. I 723 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 4: still think we're okay. This is the one team I 724 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 4: didn't want to besides Men United, the one team I 725 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 4: didn't want to face. So that's not great. But I 726 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 4: will not be betting that match. Because the line is moved. 727 00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 4: I make it right around where the number is. So 728 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 4: now my actual bet, I'm gonna take Sporting Lisbon plus 729 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 4: a half against Juventus. Juventus has been so inconsistent, so 730 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 4: up and down. They actually have the second most points 731 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 4: in Italy, which I think we've kind of glossed over 732 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 4: in that sense. They've wrote a very elite wave of 733 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 4: defensive luck to get to this point in the season 734 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 4: where you know they're about roughly even with like a 735 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 4: Milan on a performance basis and Fiorentina, like I have 736 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:58,280 Speaker 4: them all pretty similar teams, but they host a Portuguese 737 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 4: team that I think just consistently on undervalued over and 738 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 4: over again. It was the case in the Champions League, 739 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 4: it was the case against Arsenal in the Europa League. 740 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,560 Speaker 4: I'm taking Sporting Lisbon plus a half. You can find 741 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:11,080 Speaker 4: that plus money right now because Juve has taken some 742 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 4: steam up to minus one thirty five on the money line. 743 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:18,840 Speaker 1: Okay, and now we'll turn it over to our interview 744 00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:22,720 Speaker 1: with Eric Lenalda talk some Champions League and some other stuff. 745 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 1: Always fun to get Eric Stotts. He's a firecracker, so 746 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 1: you'll hear that now and then we will see you 747 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: again Thursday morning. We are pleased to welcome back former 748 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: San Diego State Aztech. 749 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:35,160 Speaker 5: Eric. 750 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 4: You had to go there. 751 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: To talk some Champions League. But before we get there, 752 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,080 Speaker 1: we watched our classic here last weekend. We've seen some 753 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 1: great atmospheres around the Premier League this season. Goodison Park 754 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:52,799 Speaker 1: was raucus Monday after Michael Keenes scored. So I want 755 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 1: to ask you, like everyone kind of knows the obvious ones, 756 00:34:56,239 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: but if you could give us one or two of 757 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:05,560 Speaker 1: the more underrated environments in European soccer, ones that maybe 758 00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:07,879 Speaker 1: people don't don't know about, whether they were from your 759 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: time with into Bundesliga or from your time covering the sport. 760 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 1: What are two that that people just won't generally think 761 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:17,720 Speaker 1: of right away? You know your an fields, et cetera, 762 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: right at Trafford that that you think maybe it's worth 763 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,439 Speaker 1: a like, if you're in the area, go check it out. 764 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:27,320 Speaker 3: I would go straight to Kaiserslanten. Even in the second division. 765 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,439 Speaker 3: They're still selling out. It is insane and if and 766 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 3: it's funny when you're driving on the autobon and you're 767 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,359 Speaker 3: on your way to Sobrook and the club I used 768 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 3: to play for, and that's kind of in between Frankfurt, 769 00:35:38,160 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 3: so it's about thirty thirty five minutes away from from 770 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 3: Frankfort because you can drive really fast, but you're like 771 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,719 Speaker 3: on the autobon and you literally could you pass kaiserslant 772 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,239 Speaker 3: As a town and you just see the whole thing 773 00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:53,399 Speaker 3: and it's just it's it's insane. And in the very 774 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 3: back corner you see the stadium and you got to 775 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,400 Speaker 3: remember if Kaiserslaton doesn't have more than than I don't know, 776 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 3: one hundred and fift thousand people that live there, but 777 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 3: they have sold out every damn game I've ever been 778 00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 3: a part of or seen. And that's that's a I 779 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 3: think a forty eight thousand seed. And it's just the 780 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 3: walk up is intense. It's kind of like it's kind 781 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 3: of like the Green Bay packers if you will. Of 782 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 3: German football or European football for that matter. It's insane. 783 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,520 Speaker 3: I mean, dormant is obviously, it's thing. I mean, dormant 784 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:24,880 Speaker 3: is crazy. I played for Bulholm, so we had to 785 00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 3: hear about that all the time because we were right 786 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 3: on the line. I actually had to move because I 787 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:32,080 Speaker 3: was on the wrong side of that line. 788 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 4: That's yes. 789 00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 3: Summer was the one that told me I needed to move. 790 00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 3: You made me roll the window down, like dude, you 791 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,160 Speaker 3: can't live here, you got to move. And he was right. 792 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,920 Speaker 3: But Kaija Son is the first one I would go do. 793 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 3: It's just, you know, there's a there's the funny thing 794 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:48,839 Speaker 3: about Germany h and I know more about it than 795 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 3: most people because I've played in it, right, But I 796 00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:55,239 Speaker 3: mean the bigger, the bigger stadiums, there's a lot of 797 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:57,839 Speaker 3: them still in the second Division. You know, you still 798 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 3: have a house foul at Hamburg Duzudorf was I think 799 00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 3: was to the rim of fifty eight thousand the other 800 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:04,479 Speaker 3: day in that too, too. 801 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 4: I mean, so. 802 00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 3: They it's it's it's incredible. There's a reason why the 803 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 3: German Second Division rivals. You know Siri I and and 804 00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:16,239 Speaker 3: you know La Liga in attendance because it's it's just 805 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 3: there's so much history there, tradition. But Kayser Slawton's worth 806 00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 3: the trip because most people fight at Frankfort, right. There's 807 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 3: some quaint ones too. Freiburg's not not it's right to 808 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 3: build the black forest, it's really weird. But Kaiser Sawton's 809 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 3: close enough, so I think you're in the Frankfort area. 810 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 3: I mean, Frankfurt's kind of like it's not that great, 811 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 3: you know, it's not. Then doesn't blow you away Leverkuz 812 00:37:38,200 --> 00:37:42,239 Speaker 3: and it's like, really, you know, not not not the 813 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 3: best either. They're a great team, they've had great history, 814 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 3: but they don't really sell out in the Environment's not fantastic, 815 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 3: But Kayser Slawton is off the hook. If they get 816 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 3: back to the first division, which doesn't look like they 817 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,680 Speaker 3: they will, that would be intense. And the other one 818 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,440 Speaker 3: is by far, hands down, craziest place I've ever been 819 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 3: in Saint Pauli. That's just nuts. 820 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:02,399 Speaker 4: It's nuts. 821 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 3: In my day, they used to actually have in the 822 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 3: suites that you could see them from the field, where 823 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 3: you would see all the you know, the presidium and 824 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 3: the even the owner, the owner's box was box was 825 00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 3: right next to these two suites which had strippers holes 826 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:24,800 Speaker 3: in them, honest to god, and like if they scored. 827 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 3: Half of us were looking up there to see what 828 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,680 Speaker 3: was going on in that that suite. You know, it's nuts. 829 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 3: They've shut that stuff down. But they're the Raiders. You know, 830 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:38,240 Speaker 3: if if if if Ka Town is the Green Bay Packers, 831 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:42,240 Speaker 3: the Raiders are definitely Saint Paulie. Those people are nuts. 832 00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:46,280 Speaker 3: Shack is huge, everybody knows that. But that's in Hamburg. 833 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 3: That's another and that's another cool trip. If you're in 834 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:52,080 Speaker 3: a it's a very Americanized city. It feels like it 835 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,440 Speaker 3: has that kind of like New York vibe to it. 836 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 3: So I would go with those two Saint Pauli and 837 00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 3: Kaisers second division teams. 838 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, are you gonna try to make a trip back 839 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:02,879 Speaker 4: for the Euros next summer because that's something I'm looking 840 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:05,920 Speaker 4: at doing personally and I'm intrigued by. I've only been 841 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 4: to Germany once and it was a brief Berlin trip. 842 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 4: Oh no, you gotta do better than that, man, I know, 843 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 4: I know, I gotta be I'm basic. 844 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 3: And don't get mad when the first guy that explains 845 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:17,919 Speaker 3: the trains to you is kind of a jerk. That's 846 00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:20,400 Speaker 3: just the way it works. You got to understand the 847 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 3: training system. But yeah, that's that's always a cool trip. 848 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:27,319 Speaker 3: What you'll find too, especially if you speak German, is 849 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 3: how much the accidents change if you start north and 850 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,200 Speaker 3: you go south. It's just like America. It's like it's 851 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:39,520 Speaker 3: like going from Boston to New York to Philly to 852 00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 3: Nashville to Florida, you know, and and it goes from 853 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 3: howdy do y'all to what are you looking at? You know, 854 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 3: and it's it's it's pretty intense if you ivery, if 855 00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:53,520 Speaker 3: you're really paying attention, and there's like five different ways 856 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:55,439 Speaker 3: to say hello. You don't even say good and talk. 857 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:59,279 Speaker 3: You say saevos. Further down you get and eventually you 858 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 3: say go to school, which means greetings to God. And 859 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 3: that's how you know you're in Bavaria. And if you 860 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:08,359 Speaker 3: don't say gruscot, they know immediately that you're not from 861 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 3: their area and they treat you like absolute crap. 862 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 2: So just know that going in transitioning a little bit. 863 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 2: Let's stay on a German team Byron Munich is still 864 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,160 Speaker 2: alive in the Champions League. They got a huge match 865 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 2: against Manchester City coming up. I'm fascinated by the tactical 866 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 2: battle here. Obviously, Thomas Tutchel has had Pepgardiol's number on 867 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 2: occasion at Chelsea. But when we get to this stage 868 00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 2: in the Champions League and a team like Byron and 869 00:40:32,480 --> 00:40:34,400 Speaker 2: a team like Manchester City, who are so used to 870 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 2: having so much game control, so much possession, who do 871 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 2: you think in this encounter actually holds more possession and 872 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 2: forces the other team to maybe defending their own final 873 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:45,760 Speaker 2: third more than they're used to in their own domestic league. 874 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 3: Well, if it were a bad possession. You know, Tuculo's genius, man. 875 00:40:49,200 --> 00:40:52,120 Speaker 3: I mean, people don't realize how good this guy is. 876 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:56,359 Speaker 3: His demeanor, the way he talks with people. He's very straightforward. 877 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:59,560 Speaker 3: You know, he didn't get on with Christian pulis sake 878 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:03,120 Speaker 3: because Christian didn't know how to handle somebody that was 879 00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:07,319 Speaker 3: that straightforward. But his plan will be very simple and 880 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:11,359 Speaker 3: it's an ambush. So, you know, I watched Brentford play 881 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 3: again and it kind of reminded me of that. A 882 00:41:13,680 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 3: team that's totally willing to just concede possession. You know, 883 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,240 Speaker 3: sometimes in the thirties and the twenties and still win games. 884 00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:21,840 Speaker 4: Look go back and. 885 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:25,920 Speaker 3: Watch how Brentford actually beat Man City, and that's a 886 00:41:25,960 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 3: good game to go off. It was a two to one. 887 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 3: I know, I've been Tony scored both. He scored one 888 00:41:29,560 --> 00:41:33,799 Speaker 3: really late. But in that game he got out shot, 889 00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 3: you know, twenty nine to ten I think. And the 890 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,840 Speaker 3: one reality was the quality chances that Brentford got. I 891 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:43,920 Speaker 3: think they had eight on target of the ten shots. 892 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,400 Speaker 3: If I'm right, well you can quote me on that. 893 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,440 Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure I do have a photographic memory. I 894 00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:51,480 Speaker 3: remember that one. That's how two Cool's going to play now. 895 00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 3: I don't know what the odds are right now. Last 896 00:41:53,160 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 3: time I saw I was plus six fifty for Byron. 897 00:41:57,840 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 3: I like Byron. 898 00:41:59,080 --> 00:42:00,319 Speaker 4: I like Byron to win the whole thing. 899 00:42:01,040 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 3: I you know, I remember I saw the slate here 900 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,480 Speaker 3: at the Red Rock because I just wanted to get 901 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:09,160 Speaker 3: the sheet on on the teams that had a chance 902 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:11,760 Speaker 3: to win champions saying, and this is before the things started. 903 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:16,360 Speaker 3: Obviously PSG was really high up there. Byron was the sleeper, 904 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:18,760 Speaker 3: you know, it was. It was still you know sixteen 905 00:42:18,800 --> 00:42:22,480 Speaker 3: you know, plus sixteen hundred for Byron back then, and 906 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,440 Speaker 3: that surprises me. The reason why this works is if 907 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,400 Speaker 3: you watch how I mean I get it, you know, 908 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:32,359 Speaker 3: the way the way that that they defend. But if 909 00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:34,359 Speaker 3: if if mother has a good day and he's got 910 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:38,760 Speaker 3: the moving pieces around him, this is really problematic, really 911 00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 3: problematic for Man City. So Byron is is an and 912 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:44,359 Speaker 3: the and the history of tool you know, get getting 913 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:46,799 Speaker 3: get right with Pep. It's not so much too cool 914 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:49,200 Speaker 3: getting it right with Pep. Do you do your homework 915 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:52,520 Speaker 3: on this? Pep gets it wrong at this stage. It people. 916 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 3: People need to go back and look at some of 917 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,680 Speaker 3: the decisions he's made in the bigger games, and especially 918 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,239 Speaker 3: when he has to overthink stuff. He loses that home 919 00:42:59,280 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 3: with the aliands for nothing to Rinaldo's real Madrid. I mean, 920 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,600 Speaker 3: that was insane to watch them go down that way. 921 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 3: When he was with Byron, he remember he tried to 922 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 3: Mark Suarez, Neymar and Messi Manda Man that didn't work 923 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:18,440 Speaker 3: out either. I mean, he'll do stuff his his his 924 00:43:18,440 --> 00:43:20,759 Speaker 3: his assistant coaches have confirmed this. He calls him at 925 00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:22,359 Speaker 3: like two thirty three in the morning. I got an 926 00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 3: idea and he's he's crazy like that. If you're not 927 00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 3: you're not really betting against Man City. You're betting against 928 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:33,280 Speaker 3: Pep as much as we make a big deal of 929 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 3: his ability to or it's all about the Champions League. 930 00:43:37,000 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 3: He screws it up in these moments for whatever reason, 931 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 3: and I'm betting that he's going to do it again. 932 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 2: And he's not. 933 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,719 Speaker 4: Just with Byron. There's you know the meltdown they had 934 00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 4: the Monaco loss, right, I think it was six and 935 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,600 Speaker 4: two matches, Real melt down against Real Madrid last year, 936 00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:53,839 Speaker 4: the leone match or the COVID year leone beat them 937 00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:54,239 Speaker 4: to to one. 938 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:57,600 Speaker 3: Uh, they've his number, as you know, as you said, 939 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:00,359 Speaker 3: it's it's it's it's a thing, it's the. 940 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:01,360 Speaker 4: Thing, and I know that. 941 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,200 Speaker 3: I know that'll and then all the way that they've 942 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:06,040 Speaker 3: played lately, I mean, what have they got like seventeen 943 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:08,280 Speaker 3: goals in their last three games. I mean they're going there. 944 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 3: They look like they're hitting on all cylinders. But this 945 00:44:11,239 --> 00:44:13,200 Speaker 3: is a different one. This is a different and Byron 946 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 3: always does this. They have a throwaway game before you know, 947 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 3: they got Fiveberg two times in a row, right, and 948 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 3: and he just lost one. They'll probably smash them this weekend. 949 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 3: But this is the way it works with Byron, especially 950 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:29,439 Speaker 3: with this new look the way that they're played against Dortmund. Man, 951 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,640 Speaker 3: this is a really really intriguing game. 952 00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,319 Speaker 4: Just almost all four of these are lying near a 953 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 4: pickham actually in like who will advance, which just makes 954 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:37,840 Speaker 4: for a fun round. 955 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:41,360 Speaker 1: And the team I still think represents the best value 956 00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 1: in terms of a future if you're looking to get involved, 957 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:50,120 Speaker 1: it's Chelsea. And yes, I think that sounds a little. 958 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 4: Wild crazy, It's so it's not crazy at all. 959 00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:56,759 Speaker 1: They're double Real Madrid is six and a half plus 960 00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:00,960 Speaker 1: six fifty to win the Champions League. He's fourteen to one. 961 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,160 Speaker 1: So you're getting double the odds on two teams that 962 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I think Real Madrid is better Carl Ancelotti 963 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 1: and Frank Lampard two everdon legends going at toe to toe, 964 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 1: but I think you know who has the advantage there 965 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,759 Speaker 1: on the touch line. But this team is the process looked, 966 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 1: has looked fine this whole time. It's just they just 967 00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:22,520 Speaker 1: needed a little bit of like the rub of the luck. 968 00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,080 Speaker 1: And I can't even I can't really look away. This 969 00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:29,120 Speaker 1: is basically where they've been all this entire competition around 970 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:31,800 Speaker 1: this odds range, right, and they're in the quarterfinals. 971 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 3: So look, you can take some positives out of the 972 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:39,480 Speaker 3: other day, Conte's back, and that's that fails me. It's 973 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:41,920 Speaker 3: it's hard to try and figure out how to play 974 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 3: with Enzoic and Conte. And if you notice, Conte's got 975 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,800 Speaker 3: like a different role. He keeps venturing forward and they're 976 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 3: like expecting him to like get on the end of something. 977 00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:55,279 Speaker 3: You know, it's funny that you'd say, Lampard, you know 978 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 3: that if he takes the job in the interim basis, 979 00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 3: it's like it's like it's actually what they need. I mean, 980 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:04,040 Speaker 3: Lampert was a part of the team that won the 981 00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:08,080 Speaker 3: Champions League with Di Matteo, and he was like, you know, 982 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,920 Speaker 3: like I don't know, guys, just go out there and play. 983 00:46:11,719 --> 00:46:11,920 Speaker 5: You know. 984 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 3: And it was unbelievable and they ended up winning the 985 00:46:14,280 --> 00:46:18,399 Speaker 3: whole thing in in Munich against Byron and Byron missed 986 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 3: the penalty kick in that in that game of drag 987 00:46:20,239 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 3: Book got a late one on a Manta cross and 988 00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:25,640 Speaker 3: they wanted the penalty kick. Shootout was crazy, but it 989 00:46:25,719 --> 00:46:28,439 Speaker 3: was the same feel that I feel about Chelsea right now. 990 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:32,240 Speaker 3: It's like we're we're in the middle of the table. 991 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 3: We've spent seven hundred million, this is crazy. We're we're 992 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:42,120 Speaker 3: on our third manager. I think somebody through that stat 993 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:46,200 Speaker 3: out that Conte has actually started for three different managers 994 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:48,719 Speaker 3: in one year or like less than a year. It 995 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:52,239 Speaker 3: would when we're talking about Chelsea, it's crazy, right, So 996 00:46:53,080 --> 00:46:57,000 Speaker 3: and this this, this represents another big change. But I 997 00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:59,279 Speaker 3: would I think that's the best, the best bet you 998 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:02,800 Speaker 3: can make. I mean, Chelsea could just out of nowhere, 999 00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:06,920 Speaker 3: just like they did many years ago. Just catch him 1000 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 3: on the wrong day and catch a little bit of luck. 1001 00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 3: It's if that's really the number six at sixteen hundred, 1002 00:47:12,239 --> 00:47:13,160 Speaker 3: I'm all in on that. 1003 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,360 Speaker 4: They just put together. I know they lost to Villa, 1004 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 4: but once Conte came on, completely dominated Villa for the 1005 00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 4: last you know, half hour of that match and then 1006 00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:24,320 Speaker 4: couldn't finish anything. I mean they had like four to 1007 00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:29,600 Speaker 4: one on ones with with Alison on Saturday or Tuesday, 1008 00:47:29,640 --> 00:47:32,319 Speaker 4: but completely dominated that match too. I mean next year 1009 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:35,720 Speaker 4: was over to expected goals created, dominated the shots. Liverpool 1010 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,280 Speaker 4: couldn't do anything. They just need a couple of shots 1011 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:40,560 Speaker 4: to go in. Kai Havertz needs to get his finishing 1012 00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 4: boots on and the celebrated when you know he hit 1013 00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:43,680 Speaker 4: your hand. 1014 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 3: I mean that was so dumb. I was missed at him. 1015 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:48,239 Speaker 3: I was like, come on, you have to know that 1016 00:47:48,280 --> 00:47:50,960 Speaker 3: I hit your hand. But I mean that chance reminded 1017 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:53,400 Speaker 3: me a lot of the lucky you got against you know, 1018 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,120 Speaker 3: City wins a similar goal. Well it just pops up 1019 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 3: on him and they gets to finish it and they 1020 00:47:57,560 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 3: win one. Now it could have been the same story. 1021 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:01,480 Speaker 3: But I really like this one, especially with everything going 1022 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:05,040 Speaker 3: on with Ancelotti. You know, it's a big, big response 1023 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:09,479 Speaker 3: obviously with the with the four zero with at at 1024 00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:12,160 Speaker 3: the camp new But I don't know, this one has 1025 00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 3: a weird feel to it. I remember when when Torres, 1026 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:18,760 Speaker 3: you know, I had the breakaway, we had the Gary 1027 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:22,520 Speaker 3: Neville you know, orgasmic count or call whatever you want 1028 00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:24,640 Speaker 3: to call it. That's it has that feel to it. 1029 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 3: So I'm I'm really looking forward too both of these games, 1030 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:28,560 Speaker 3: but this one in particular. 1031 00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:31,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, and then I guess the other question to the 1032 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:32,680 Speaker 4: other half of the draw kind of the way this 1033 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 4: broke kind of wide open, right, Napoli Milan inter Benfica. 1034 00:48:39,120 --> 00:48:40,799 Speaker 4: You have a pick on who makes the final out 1035 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 4: of that group, but you have a chance of beating Napole. 1036 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:45,759 Speaker 3: Not believe we get there, especially with them let it. 1037 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:48,120 Speaker 3: It's almost like they let Melan have them this week. 1038 00:48:48,680 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 3: Last week the four nil, it was almost like a setup. 1039 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 4: It's just not and there's a lot going on. 1040 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,200 Speaker 3: I mean, but that you gets in a fight with 1041 00:48:57,200 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 3: with pretty much everybody. But he was who I think 1042 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 3: he was having a go at leal right and Maldini 1043 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:07,759 Speaker 3: you know, kind of walked in the room and and 1044 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:10,120 Speaker 3: had a go at him. So there's there's a lot 1045 00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:12,719 Speaker 3: more on the on the on the table. There, there's 1046 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:14,799 Speaker 3: there's there. They're not like each other right now. But 1047 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:17,640 Speaker 3: not Poi is so good, you know, Oh same on 1048 00:49:17,719 --> 00:49:19,480 Speaker 3: didn't play so I mean I I just think he 1049 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:21,600 Speaker 3: got a little bit of red. It's not it's not 1050 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,239 Speaker 3: looking good for midline. But Napoli is very good. They're 1051 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,480 Speaker 3: just a very very good team. They should they should 1052 00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,279 Speaker 3: see their way to the final. It's just a matter 1053 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:30,839 Speaker 3: of who's who who they're playing against. Right. 1054 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:35,200 Speaker 2: How about the best bet from the Champions League Champions League. 1055 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:38,840 Speaker 3: I I still think I still think in this particular matchup, 1056 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 3: Chelsea is going to surprise. But but Byron's Byron's Byron's 1057 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,080 Speaker 3: the bet to win it all for me? I mean, 1058 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 3: I know that sounds a little wild, but there's just 1059 00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:52,399 Speaker 3: too many things that are kind of stacking out. 1060 00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:54,600 Speaker 2: Do you think real quick for guy or do you 1061 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:57,799 Speaker 2: think do you think United has Europa League wrapped up? 1062 00:49:57,840 --> 00:49:59,760 Speaker 2: Or do you think another team is going to surprise somebody? 1063 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,480 Speaker 3: Well, it's not an easy ride. 1064 00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:02,719 Speaker 4: I don't. 1065 00:50:02,760 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 3: I'm not convinced right now with with United, they're having 1066 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:08,400 Speaker 3: changed too much. I know, make tombout hey, right, he 1067 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 3: scores two goals against Spain, two goals against somewhere, he 1068 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:13,000 Speaker 3: scores four goals on their actual break and now he 1069 00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 3: thinks he's a ten, which was pretty funny. I'm not 1070 00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:21,399 Speaker 3: convinced with United right now. It's it's just it's still 1071 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:23,880 Speaker 3: gonna come down to the nine. You know veg horsesn't 1072 00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:27,840 Speaker 3: isn't isn't what with you know Rashford, it's still on. 1073 00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 3: He's still on a tear. But but they just they 1074 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 3: don't there's something wrong. They said, they don't look all 1075 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 3: the way there. They don't like, they don't look the 1076 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:39,879 Speaker 3: finished products. So it'll be it'll really come because I 1077 00:50:39,880 --> 00:50:42,359 Speaker 3: if you really look at how many how many how 1078 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 3: many UH Italian teams are still in this thing? 1079 00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:46,239 Speaker 5: Right? 1080 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:50,279 Speaker 3: You still have juvents just hanging around. It's you know, 1081 00:50:50,320 --> 00:50:52,399 Speaker 3: if they didn't have that fifteen point deduction, they would 1082 00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 3: be they would be challenging for scood that though, So 1083 00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 3: I mean, it's it's it's a it's an interesting competition 1084 00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:02,879 Speaker 3: and we doesn't get enough attention and obviously, but I'm 1085 00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 3: not I'm not all the way in on. 1086 00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:06,560 Speaker 2: Well maybe maybe you should join me in, Anthony. 1087 00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:07,520 Speaker 1: I know you brought it up. 1088 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:09,600 Speaker 2: Corolla Leverkusen eight to one. 1089 00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:11,759 Speaker 4: Not Roma. 1090 00:51:13,160 --> 00:51:14,200 Speaker 2: We know what jo is gonna do. 1091 00:51:14,840 --> 00:51:16,680 Speaker 3: Labor cousin will find out what they're all about. They 1092 00:51:16,719 --> 00:51:19,360 Speaker 3: got Frankfurt, which is basically, you know, essentially staying in 1093 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:22,560 Speaker 3: the tournament feels like the same damn tournament this weekend. 1094 00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 3: But I'm I'm all in on Alonzo. He is the 1095 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,120 Speaker 3: real deal. This, this is this is what a manager's 1096 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:33,200 Speaker 3: supposed to look like, you know, and he just he's 1097 00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:36,839 Speaker 3: he's got a he's got a team that, uh one, 1098 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 3: it's better than it's young enough. Defensively, they've had their 1099 00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:43,239 Speaker 3: their their problems. They got tired of there, which was 1100 00:51:43,239 --> 00:51:45,759 Speaker 3: probably the best thing he could have done. But I 1101 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,000 Speaker 3: think that this is a team that can surprise. And 1102 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,880 Speaker 3: they're eight to one, because that's you know, and and 1103 00:51:51,000 --> 00:51:53,600 Speaker 3: we know how it works with laver Cousin, right, They 1104 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:56,719 Speaker 3: they get smashed every once in a while, I mean 1105 00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 3: absolutely destroyed and and you kind of go, where the 1106 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 3: hell that come from. I don't think that'll be the 1107 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:05,040 Speaker 3: case with Alonso, but we'll know a lot more after 1108 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:06,720 Speaker 3: we see what they look like against Frankfurt. 1109 00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:10,440 Speaker 2: Say maybe if they meet Roma in the semi finals, 1110 00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:13,000 Speaker 2: winner gets through Real Madrid. Job, how about that? 1111 00:52:13,760 --> 00:52:14,520 Speaker 4: It's pretty much I. 1112 00:52:16,600 --> 00:52:19,359 Speaker 3: Mean, it really is. I mean I thought if they 1113 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,440 Speaker 3: wouldn't have fired Nogelesman, you know, and and gone the 1114 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:25,320 Speaker 3: two fol route, I would have really thought that Alonso 1115 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:29,400 Speaker 3: had set himself up to be Byron's manager because he 1116 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:31,840 Speaker 3: played there. He knows the lay of the land, he 1117 00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:36,200 Speaker 3: does everything, and he's really becoming a really beautiful young manager. 1118 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:39,960 Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean it would make just as much sense, 1119 00:52:40,000 --> 00:52:43,040 Speaker 3: right Real Madrid. He would be a great successor to 1120 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:43,680 Speaker 3: to Encilotti. 1121 00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:44,240 Speaker 4: And Encilotti. 1122 00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:45,840 Speaker 3: I think one of the reasons why we think they 1123 00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 3: might lose is because they've already won it all. They 1124 00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:50,919 Speaker 3: what else does he have to do? I mean, he's 1125 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,400 Speaker 3: he's won it all everywhere, and they might have a 1126 00:52:53,440 --> 00:52:55,799 Speaker 3: letdown and it might come in this in the form 1127 00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:57,840 Speaker 3: of a loss. In this in the early stage is 1128 00:52:57,880 --> 00:52:59,640 Speaker 3: the Champions League. So it's good stuff. 1129 00:53:00,120 --> 00:53:02,960 Speaker 1: Don Carlo will be back. He'll be in like the 1130 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:07,200 Speaker 1: Gladys Street ends as a fan for one Everdon clear, No, 1131 00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:08,080 Speaker 1: Carlo is going to. 1132 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:11,239 Speaker 3: Be having a cappuccino in June and Vancouver because that's where. 1133 00:53:11,320 --> 00:53:13,520 Speaker 1: Yeah.
