"Is where it was. Right, second half. You know, you can talk about coming back from Georgina. I mean, yeah. I mean, you talk about, you know, and what struck me when this ball went and I thought, you know what? Football gives and takes away, you know. Right. And last weekend, football took away two points. Sure, just because it can. But you know what, this week, the can complain because football gave them the two points back. And you can't argue with that. Because at the end of the day, they set the cross bar and it's gone in off the goalie's back of his head. I mean, come on. You can't see anything other than lady Locke. So leveled itself out. And great display. And then does he have to win the game? I think. So to that point, Steve Edmond, Dan just mentioned the potential negative moment for arsenal. I'll spin it the other way, given the fact that it has worked out arsenal's way. How about the positive moments that once that you can hang on to the maybe it is meant to be? The safe that you just mentioned there by Ramsay. When it's two, two, and neon Bailey first of all, the first touch by Leon Bailey as the ball is coming over the double-A said, brings it down right next to the sideline. And now he's going to go hit it as well as he possibly can near post ransom makes it to save all for the crossbar now. Critical moment. But just the same as that's a critical moment. The fact that indeed there is a bounds of the back of somebody said onto the goal, it says, well, maybe it is meant to be. Maybe this story shouldn't be a negative one. Maybe it has to be a positive one. Maybe we are the team that is indeed is destined to win this thing. And we've had our bump. And we've had our difficulties. And guess what? We're still top. Not only are we top, we're better off than we were a few days ago. So there's everything to love about arsenal right now. And while I say that, I'll also say this, there were moments in that game that there was everything to hate about arsenals, because you were thinking that things were turning, and they were not going to be able to stop that momentum. And yet they were and that, indeed, is what Steve is referring to as a championship performance, turning the message, turning the story because you're making a turn. Not because somebody else is helping you. You are making a turn. You are dictating the terms of how you're going to play the rest of the season because of the way that you're playing. Frank, when you take a look at title races in the past, there have been defining moments, so many to mention. That georginio goal really was like a wow moment, wasn't it? Exactly. That's crazy. And I immediately thought you know Chelsea should buy that guy. But really, really, that's a really turning point because as a guy, you know what, at some point during the game, I said, well, you know, maybe the Gunners, they lost their momentum and the last week, the game games, city was a real turning point, and now it's gone for the gunners. But what they have, they have a self belief. They have recklessness. They don't never give up. They were twice behind the goal. And they kept on working hard and kept on believing that it could score. And the last week I can see, I said, there is a

"The cottages were actually awarded a 69th minute penalty which former magpies man Alexander mitrovic stepped up and appeared to slot home, but the ball actually went from his kick foot off his plant foot and then in and because the taker can not touch the ball twice consecutively even if the ball hits the post by the way. The goal was cruelly, but rightly disallowed. And then in the 89th minute, it was the Alexander they told Fulham not to worry about Alexander isak popping up to head home the winner. Newcastle are in third place rod and very much, as I said earlier, part of this title race. Who would have thought ahead of the season that this would be a battle between the fourth and 6th place teams and a true heavyweight battle at that Fulham, swag it in. They just defeated Chelsea for the first time in 21 Premier League games, Newcastle, a true top four contender. They started Joe Linton, despite him being arrested for drink driving mid week, Eddie House said, we don't underestimate the severity of what he did. He's very remorseful, very sad. And with him in it, the game hard thought they lost Newcastle, I lost talisman, guy maresch, who departed in tears before halftime and Newcastle my God. Their fans will sweat results of that scan Fulham could have should have taken the lead, but for a quirk of fate that could over read seem to be fouled by Trippier, obviously looked like decor David had initiated contact, but var gave it, and then comedy chaos, wild scenes, Mitch, the penalty, scored against his former team, raw deray, revenge so sweet, but the ref called it back, he rightly had seen. It was an indirect free kick to Newcastle as the ball ever so slightly hit off the penalty takers planting fort before he thrashed it home and there's a rule, a penalty can't be touched again by the shooter until it hits another player. Crazy to me, Devo truly, truly crazy and bloody lucky for Newcastle. Think of what they've seen at once before I believe mares did it as he was still playing for Leicester against man city at the Etihad. Again another situation legally correct, but really fun against the spirit of the law. I found it hard to process in the time. I mean, I'd almost like hats off to the ref for actually knowing that rule and for observing us with his with his own eyes and being that big nozzle. But yeah, by the letter of the law, not a goal and there you go. Fulham God bless they recovered. They defended valiantly till the 89th minute, their back line finally switched off. Wilson knocked in a cross from close range for his act to nod home on the line with no one around him. A fine way to return for him to leave play after four long months out. And to Fulham's 5 match winning run, Newcastle, keep on keeping on respect, really. Watching Eddie Howe whose football always seemed aspiring flair filled and flimsy. A Bournemouth in stock contrast, God, they become so resilient, 5 successive Premier League clean sheets just at 11 goals leaked in their first 90 games of the season. Back into third place, albeit played a game more than those around them. Three matches against relegation battlers to come Q Euro fever and euphoria across Saint James's Park before kick-off fans there and filled the banner, which I do think sums up the essence of this Newcastle campaign we're not here to be popular. We're here to compete in both the trick. Aston Villa two leads united one, this is a brutal one for your mate Jesse marsh rush. His leads fell behind in just the third minute to a goal from Jamaica's Leon Bailey Concacaf on Concacaf violence. It's never pretty rod and then despite kind of bright lead to performance villa doubled their advantage in the 64th minute with the elusive vardon goal from Emmy buendia, Patrick Bamford pulled one back on his return from injuries, first goal since 2021, but it wasn't enough leads to just two points out of the relegation zone and the flames continue to lick the stonewash denim that cling so tightly to Jesse marshes American ankles and thighs. This one hurts after watching leads fight back from two little down to extract an F a cultural. Okay, it's championships Cardiff leads confidence and momentum and belief in this one. Lasted all of two minutes. They made the mistake of winning a corner from which Aston Villa exploded into the space left behind with speed, Ashley, young breaking the press. Oh, charging forward. Leon Bailey, getting hold of that ball Concacaf thundering it into the corner, scorching, utterly scorching, leads, like spurs and Liverpool only seem to play when they've been kicked in the down below and they're going to be said was actually admirable. Italian bambino Willy neon charged with glee against actually the young. We got the treat of watching a 19 year old take on an 89 year old speed versus wily experience magnificent leads press, the Harry, they created chances, simply didn't have the quality to convert when they put the game away on the counter. Four wins in 6 Premier League games for Unai Emery at Aston Villa. But another match in which leads were undeniably the better team, but leaving nothing to show for it. I think if there were style points, they'd be safely mid table, instead they just leave, feeling jacked, Jesse marsh, it's always so optimistic. He said, this was his side's best performance in his 11 months in charge. But just two wins in their past 17 games all comps and leads fans starting to feel that the same floors are being exposed every week, the chaotic joyful attack, yes, but then calibrated finishing two, and it's the inability to sort out the defense. That personnel has got a mistaken every single player and they're still there and there's no guarding it. There's no protection, that back four is a disaster. And when you look at that corner, that first goal leads conceit from. They had 8 men in their opponent's box. They couldn't have been more vulnerable, and that's a feeling that's driving the leads fan base truly two levels of heightened concern with Brentford Everton forest Southampton

"Of Tyler Adams road to the cup powered by VW that drops this Thursday on this very pot feed. America. Okay, Aston Villa three Manchester United one, Unai Emery returns from the wild like a basque Bear Grylls to teach villa some crafty survival tactics and within 11 minutes, his new charges were two nil up Leon Bailey got through in the 7th minute to open the scoring and unfilled a wonderful little dance move on the end line and Luka dny doubled up your favorite rods Luca DA doubled it up with a wonderful left footed free kick united pulled one back just before the half after Luke Shaw's effort from distance took a massive deflection off of Jacob Ramsey, but the young English man, a tone for the own goal or unintentional own goal on the other side of halftime, arriving late and blasting one into the top corner to Mark Unai Emery's return to English football with a three one win. Yeah, watching Emily and just salute and taking the applause pregame from the giddy home of illa fans. He's just signed four and a half year contract enormously long. He talked about his dream to secure Aston Villa's first major trophy in 26 years, return the club to its historic glorious past almost recover his own reputation after it was somewhat savaged at arsenal. It looked like I got the thing it was just a Persian cat having its tummy rub. Do you just look so elated to be there? Despite just overseeing three training sessions, it all began like a fever dream 7 minutes in fuller playwright through the middle Leon Bailey Concacaf and smashing at home incredible stat. He's got four Premier League goals and they've all come under different managers. Dean Smith, Stevie G, danks emery. Here he finished crisply through the hair first goal from open play, the Spaniard had conceded in just over 12 hours of league playing with only take three and a half minutes before it would be two. Then yeah, spanking a free kick, dipping, web precision, like a French tattooed sleeve debris, peak, new manager bounce was achieved, David. Looking unrecognizable from the team that played under Stevie G, great energy, great speed and honestly, you know, playing their opponents in a proponent that's been playing very well recently, just played them off the park at points. Yeah, united could live with villa's intensity, their press, a lot of players out and made a massive difference brewed a suspended van der beek, giving his first start in the team for 701 days and all he did was share why he doesn't deserve another. And united did force her way back into the game as villa punched themselves out a little towards half time, but it proved to be a false dawn second half, villa killed off the game, a calamitous sequence of defensive play from united, leaving the excellent Jacob Ramsey who emery had reinstated to finish. It was the rubbernecking delight of a Ronnie Ming's fight. God, that is how far he's fallen these fighting Tyrone rings. And it's really the only punch Ronnie had the CR 37 on the day when he didn't just start, but in Bruno's absence was captain, you know, you've got 494 million followers on Instagram and you too can be overindulged at your football club. With him at the tip of the arrow united really they were playing with ten men for much of this game just outpaced how exactly does the new manager bounce work? What actually goes into it? I really wish I understood more about it. But yeah, every single player just really showing up and trying to impress players. You didn't get a lot of minutes Leon Bailey being one of them. First win against united for villa in 9941 days villa fans who were. Oh, I thought she could say years. 30. Well, if you were a villa fan, and you were alive for the last game, you were 13. And you were now 40 when you watch this at the weekend. That's a lot of life. United first lost in the league since August. And let's talk overboard at the end of an impressive run. But it's got to be noted that without veran without Bruno Fernández ra Anthony, this squad, which is that so much money spent on it. They did look thin. European knights fans, united drew Barcelona in the rupa league. This morning all hail hot balls, but who knows at the wheel? They've a Stevie G died so that villa could lift. That's how Stevie G will see it. But how much did the villa players really hate Stevie G when they can play this well? Ah, that could be the secret of the bounce. It wasn't so much a bounce as a rebound is what you're saying. Southampton won Newcastle. Wow, four, four different goal scorers for the magpies beginning with yet another for living the dream, miggy armor on his fourth straight game with a goal in his 8th on the season with fabulous goal as well. Victory that sent Newcastle up to third Southampton, meanwhile, have said goodbye to Ralph Hassan huddle after four years in charge. It had to happen. So we meet again in the Alpine ski lodge lobby bar in the sky route. Another weekend, another surging comprehensive victory for pith castle, leaving their fans who'd made the 644 mile round trip to the south coast. The chance to take their shirt out and go belly off in The Rain, Eddie Howe rings up a urine charge of football's latest blood soap nation building process 19 wins in his last 32 games, partially due yesterday to being heavily backed in the last transfer window, but also partially down to his tactical savvy, his man management, and his desire to build a squad that's constantly hungry to learn, Miguel moron again, another game of a joyful goal 7 in 7. His 8th goal of the season, just incredible to watch this stat, David, his first 1327 days as a Premier League player a 154 shots ten goals, his last 36 as a player in the Premier League 23 shots. 7 goals. That is the eddy how effect is almiron the best 100% human player in the Premier League this season? I believe someone came up with a better tweet as a response. Yeah, they did. Mike Marshall, he said, I'm not convinced that we're not watching cyborg Alma or two negative. I don't even know what that means. Newcastle Goethe, Southampton, into the bottom three and Ralph Hassan huddle, who's been like a cat with 9 lives and held on after humiliation after humiliation, not after this one, 6 defeat in 9 games fired. After being asked by a journalist, do you see a way out of this predicament and Ralph just said, no. Hard to watch him struggle. He's got a young young squad limitations at the front and the back is four years of thrills and spills and dabbling in elite mixologist waste coats are now over. He was a good coach, rip Ralph Hampton, loon town's Nathan Jones rumored to be negotiating to take over the Nate Hampton era is upon us. West Ham won Crystal Palace two or otherwise said directional deli meat, one reflective royals home. Two. It was Sunday's second London Darby road, the irons jumped out ahead in the 20th minute when Saeed Ben Rama sent an Algerian blast into the top corner but Patrick Vieira's palace answered, wow, first in the 41st minute with wilf, capitalizing on a sloppy West Ham turnover in their own third and staffing it back down David Moyes throat. And then in the game's dying embers, Michael Elise shot hit off Aaron creswell. Sorry, producer J dubs ending up in the back of the net palace are in tenth place on 19 points the same number as Liverpool. West Ham looked like a number of teams this week, but more than any of them to have players. His mind was really on the World Cup and not getting injured rather than, you know, doing the club job. And that 94th minute punishment came Alice challenged just this week by Vieira to score more this season. He obliged via that enormous deflection, but he won't care. Michael Lee say, quoting Michael Scott, quoting Wayne Gretzky. You miss a 100% of the shots you don't take crystal palaces first away win at the season. This soothed some of my Chelsea wounds this weekend, roger, I won't lie. Wolves to brighten three after valiantly coming back from an Adam lallana opener to lead to one walls. Oh, they shot themselves in the pores. Nelson somato first out jumped at the back post by Caro mitoma to concede the equalizer and sent off some minutes later for a last man challenge on the Japanese forward Brighton's patients paid off when in the 83rd minute Pascal gross found the back of the net for the winner. Red list wolves who had scored just 6 times till before this game increased that by 25% inside one half, scoring twice,

"Com. Aston Villa for Brentford mill and attacking display that was the equivalent of purposefully hitting Stevie G with the door on his way out, got started within two minutes. Leon Bailey stroking home a short corner, then 5 minutes later, the concave provider cut back across for Danny ings to extend the lead ings grabbed a penalty for a second on the day and Ollie Watkins rounded it out in the second half to earn villa their first win in four games and in more villain news, roger, old, Premier League friend Unai Emery was confirmed as the new permanent manager at midday on Monday. Farewell, Stevie J a manager who never found the right balance for his team. Was weighed down by his acquisition of Coutinho, be careful what you wish for and who aired tactically wanted a system Michael Beale, the camp for queensport rangers, as Taylor Swift would say. Everybody agrees. It's me. I'm the problem. It's me. Do hope that doesn't rule him out as Liverpool's next manager as clock promised less than the year ago, David. They were like, oh, he's just in waiting. For the Anfield job in his absence, we tuned in to see how Aston Villa would begin the post Stevie Gerrard era. Against Brentford, Brentford, who are on the road a shadow of the team they are at home and villa just unleashed a barrage of goals. Each one day, it was like watching a breath of relief that Steven Gerrard had left the building. Yeah, the entire 90 plus minutes of the game was like an Aston Villa highlight reel. They playing with freedom. I mean, you've rarely seen 11 players happier to be playing under a new manager. Concacaf temporary manager. Leon Bailey sparkled Danny ings only Watkins booth Scott. By the way, ings, beautifully it's on our Instagram. We walked out with a mascot for villa foundation. Football Sessions, and Danny ings, warhead phones to block out the crowd noise alongside the mascot who needed them. It was a beautiful thing to witness humanly. I'd just say comedy goals are the best goals, villages delivered for their fans, a feel good day that the cried out for less a new manager bounce more a new manager explosion. Talk about a team not playing for their old guy, David, even Ming's bloody scored, and when I realized this, by the way, I did wonder, the only owner is actually bonkers to actually try this and I hope you're listening is Todd burleigh. Why does the team not just fire their manager every single week? Just play for that new manager bounce, then fire that new manager immediately get a new one in and ride it all the way into Europe would it work? We should start a team in a league somewhere and we should call the new manager bounce united. And we should try out this hypothesis. I love it. Yeah, the team's motto in Latin will be don't get too attached to the new guy. And yesterday, I knew guys, it's an old guy. Old friend, Unai Emery, will be joining from Villarreal villa reportedly making contact first with pochettino, then Tuchel before landing on Unai Emery, just working their way backwards on PSG's Wikipedia page. That scouting, but it's good to see the return of Emory, who got arsenal 5th, but never truly won the trust of the fanbase quite cruelly, which led to his demise, his arrival means villa have a proper tactically excellent manager now, one deeply motivated to reassert himself in England and reassert the club filler a clip of longing. Their owners are actually spending money. They long to return to the old days of villa glory and they're now instant favorites for the Europa League, even though they're not in it. Apparently, roger according to Google Translate, it's nim, atake artist at novum guy, non nimbus. Guy doesn't seem to translate from English to Latin. The interesting here is that we're watching Steven Gerrard. And on the whole, you bring in these young managers because of the relationships that they bond with the players. So they may not have all of that tactical ability. They may not have all of that managerial experience, but at least you feel that they'll bring on the younger players. I would actually contrast it with what Lampard was able to do in his first season at Chelsea and what Darby county his first season at Chelsea. And now Everton, he seems to have a very good relationship with the young players, but I find interesting about Gerard, is he seemed to establish no relationship with these players who surely watched him, many of them played against him and realized what a good footballer he is. And it just wasn't there. There was a piece about this, a loved by you and Murray in The Guardian, I think. He wrote about how great the desire has been for England's modern day international playing heroes to become the nation's finest managers and how it just has not happened. Gary Lineker prefers to sit in the television studio and be the face of the game from there. David Beckham, he wrote would rather own a club the managed one and we want our English gods to persevere. I think mostly said that we can crap on them again like we did with Stevie J at villa and for Gerard, the next move probably to the world free world of the footballing SS that is the championship where anything and everything can happen to him as he tries to reassert himself. Yeah. Fulham three leads united two. Wow, another tough day out for Leeds. It started hopefully with a Rodrigo Moreno

"And this kind of play, I daresay, roger. I know there was a good start at the beginning of last season. But I feel better about Everton this season than I did at the same stage last season. I just think they're playing better football. We have we have Ghana. We have James Garner. We can play players that all kind of half rhyme in the midfield, which the poet in me at all he loves. All I hope was, this was not just one week, you know, a big game getting up for that big game. God, I just pray that we can carry on the progress next weekend against the arsenal, which is going to be an incredibly difficult game. All I can raise my bud two is that for one week and I tweeted this, I think. I just sat there, breathless, 9 a.m. in the morning. They hadn't even left my couch in New York, but I had already looked death in the eye and said not today and also soared to the heavens briefly and I swear a glimpse of Nirvana. And that, that to me is the glory of watching football, the place is the emotions it takes you and gives you a really been a supportive Everton football club seems to be both for the extremes in spades, courage, Aston Villa one, Manchester City one, the defending champs, miss a chance to go top playing some sparkling football, but failing to pick the lock on an obstinate Stevie G side the visitors took the lead in the 50th minute when who else Erling Haaland elevated to latch onto a sumptuous Katie B ball. Is there any other kind for his tenth goal in 6 games, but a 74th minute goal from the left foot of reggae boy, Leon Bailey, rescued a point for the villa city drop points, but continue to look just plain, scary going forward. Strange one list, David, because this kick-off approached, I felt sick on the state about to watch Aston Villa against man city at fully I was being forced to watch a stuff film. I did not want to be anywhere near. However, huge respect to villa who had been a shambles for most of the season under Stevie G but from the kick-off down security that has plagued their play was not evident at all, defended with organization and fights her Ming's excellent, depriving city room in the final third, and at halftime, suddenly more surprising. Had not scored a hat trick than if he had, but all it took 5 minutes of the second half, KDB slipped out to the byline, at least a signature just stunning cross, one of his spinning loopers that tend the goalkeeper and then tie his brain and freeze him, Alain Reddit to perfection, beat his defender lepta put the far post. Big air, volleyed at home from close range and ling haaland is inevitable, David. I mean, he just gets in that 6 yard box. Again and again and again, I think 6 of his ten goals have been scored in the 6 yard box. I mean, it's amazing that he's there so often, not amazing that his teammates find himself often KDB was something else. Yeah, there's pasta Nemo who I think was proper villa would have said, first he came for Crystal Palace and I did not speak out because I am not an eagle. Then he came for Nottingham Forest and I did not speak out because I am not a tricky tree, but now Helen came for Stevie G and I quite liked it. Ha land outscored 14 to 19 other Premier League teams on his own and David last man before Helen to score ten goals in his first 6 Premier League games to reach double figures was the great Mickey Quinn. If you've not seen them beside our Instagram and enormous swollen mustachioed unit who looked a bit, I guess like northern English Tom Selleck in the early 90s, blasted ten and 6 in the baggy shirt days for Coventry city. Do you remember him? Yeah, I mean, I do remember him and was reminded even more of him when we posted the picture. And he wasn't exactly, didn't look like an elite athlete playing football roger. He was interviewed by only English he's a massive man. He once had a pie thrown at him, which he picked up in the 8 in game on the field. He was hungry. Giving birth to the chant who ate all the pies. You fat bastard, you fat bastard, you ate all the pies, don't make them like that anymore. And God, Mickey quint looked in the words of GFP at python bro. He said, why does every dude from that era look like a 47 year old recent divorcee, which is just the best description. And God, you look at Quinn and ha land, so by side, you just see like Darwin's evolution of man. But Quinn all over the papers this morning in a tabloid saying, doesn't matter if you have a 6 pack or 6 bellies. Scoring instinct is what matters and yes, up the 6 bellies, but in villa, I don't think it had a shot on goal. Hit city on the sucker punch Ramsey rolling the ball over down the left and with Concacaf thunder. God bless him Bailey. I think he actually shouted Concacaf under as he hit the ball side foot sweep and cupp do that slightly manic tucking his shirt into his oddly configured cargo pants the pockets of which are like that, the false 9 of cargo pants, villa. We've got to say, could have had another Coutinho flash toad, but the offside flag went up in a way it's not meant to anymore, and it was ruled off. But David, massive points for Stevie G after three consecutive defeats, they didn't stop Alan, but they limited him. Almost follow Helen to finish player. What do you make of it for city after the obliterating glory of the last two games reverting to an old trope dominating a game they should win without killing it off? Yeah, but I think over the course of a long season, you know, we see this happen. They certainly dominated the game. I can't believe they weren't three nil up after 30 minutes. And Aston Villa wrote their luck. You're right, got a very valuable point for Stevie G, whose name has been mentioned a lot as potentially the next manager to get the job.

"Role with the Jamaican national team. Maybe 2022 will be the year where he delivers there. All right, so let's go from number ten and Leon Bailey to number 9. We're going to L three raul Alonso Jimenez, not just of Mexico, but of course, Wolverhampton in the Premier League. I got to think he was in both of our top tens here, yeah? Yeah. Yeah, he's in my top ten. I had him 7 things. This is incredible to me because in November 2020, he was in that horrific incident with David Luis, head to head collision where he feared for his life his fiance now wife at the time feared for his life. And here he is. And we're about 12, 13 months later, and we're talking about the not rise of a player like a role he managed. We're talking about the rebirth of the new route Jimenez and what he could potentially be again. It's insane to me. I mean, he's 7 right now for me, but only because he's not scratched the surface with the Mexican national team. We see what he does at wolves and how important he is for wolves. He's still not been that player of importance again for the Mexican nationally, but it's very hard to keep him out of my top ten. I had him number 7. You talk about November of 2020. I wonder where he would have been in that top ten, right? I don't think we're talking top 5. We're probably talking like top three two one at that moment when he gets injured her. He is at not just that the top point of his career, but he's at a stratosphere level that very few players from this region have ever hit, especially.

"No. Am I the only one who thinks since he left lever who's in his game has dipped? He's not been the same player with villa. Not only for a club, but country. Where is that Leon Bailey? We were promised for Jamaica. It started at gold cup when he came on this show and he spoke to us. He was picking up he had a little injury. He didn't play to his potential again with Jamaica. We've not seen the best at Leon Bailey. And when I think about the names that are out there, I couldn't put myself to put Leon Bailey in my list. I don't know how he got onto your 7. He couldn't get into my ten. Look, he's, for me, one of the more talented and already at this young point of his career is only 24 years old. Productive players out of cocktail. This is a guy who a couple years ago was Bundesliga team of the season. Not team of the week, not team of the month, team of the season. He went for $40 million. That's what it took to prime out of Leverkusen to Aston Villa. That's some pretty big money for a Concacaf player. I will agree with you on the international front. He played 88 minutes in that game that we saw between Jamaica and the United States was not the dominant player. You might have expected him to be there in the ultimate reality. Just one goal, just one goal during his time with Jamaican. That came way back in 2019. So Leon Bailey clearly a talent, but maybe still some room to grow both in terms of the top ten, but also his role with the Jamaican national team. Maybe 2022 will be the year where he delivers there. All right, so let's go from number ten and Leon Bailey to.

"I think the situation with fellow was at the start of last season, they were doing exceptionally well. And I think in this sort of calendar year of 2021, they fall enough quite a bit, but the squad still basically remains the same, barring one person. So for them, they've seen that level of performance and they believe in themselves. I think they I think they have a good score. I don't think they're like a top, I don't think there's top 6 squad. I don't really think they're the top 8 score, but I think they can be pushing around mid table. Mid table mid table define success. I think between 6 and 8. Between 6 and 8. Wait, you mean outside? Between 7, 7, 8, something like that. So that implies that they're ahead of or on a par with Leicester spurs, teams like that in your mind. Well, there you go. The bar has been set, Stevie G we know you're a regular listener. We wish you all the best. I do think growing up for me, I remember I don't remember it because I was too young, but I remember reading of Aston Villa as the European champion. And to me, that is always kind of where it's been they finished second, of course, since then, think under Brian little maybe or maybe somebody else. I don't know, because it's a long time ago. But you want to see them back among the big clubs where they belong. Okay, so this Steven Gerrard news is very, very new. We've we agreed mid table. Is that a fair result? For what I think the expectation is going to be for Aston Villa this season? Yeah, I think so. I think he'd be interesting to see he plays attacking football. That's certainly that was the case arrangers, which can I jump take a step back? It's kind of hard if your rangers are up there. I don't think so. I don't think you're trying to pick your attention. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but I think, you know, again, if you look at rangers play with tavern as the right foot back and left foot back where there is bassy or Barry they're very attacking for bags. I think the whole team that I think that's the mindset and I don't see why he would change our villa, he has to make a defense stronger because considered goals that the expected goes against I think is quite high. And the oven's called many. So I think there's a lot of work to be done there, and especially for the new signing from the summer to hit form when Leon Bailey just kind of players because I still think there were below what they should bring to that team. They had a bunch of injuries too. But I think I really think that a top ten is doable and should be the target. And I think it can achieve the 100%. Later, last word on Jared, we often talk about coaching trees and things, players take from their coaches when they become coaches. Now, you're not coaching professionally. Yes. Yet? You may never. But you win. It would be, you could tell, he's gonna be a manager. You win. He was relaxed. No, no, no. No. You've had former teammates and stuff who've done it. I think obviously you take a lot from managers who've influenced you. But I find this an interesting topic because if I look at who would have influenced if Gerard was so attacking at rangers, you imagine that the Liverpool fans don't like him. He probably did get a few things from Brendan Rodgers. Obviously, Gerard Julie early in his career. I'm guessing dog leash is a little boy and then obviously when he came back. Maybe not quite so much. You know, and then obviously, obviously, Rafa, very different in many approaches. But there's always that dynamic. And I want to ask you, what's your take on this the way some people always go back and reference people they played for? When you get the sense that everybody, every former united player has to go back and talk about Sir Alex Ferguson. But there's also others who say, well, no, I'm going to pay attention to what's happening elsewhere. And I'm going to try to get influences figure out what best practices out there beyond my own experience. Yeah, I think the better coaches these days are the ones who look outside as well. Because I think if you go off, it's happened to you in the past. The game changes so quickly, almost feels like it's year on year. And if you're going to say that what somebody was doing 20 years ago is the best method going forward now, it won't be because as well that the plane staff are different. The players playing football today see the game in a different way to people with their 20 years ago. So you can't just instill those beliefs into them now, because they won't buy into them. I think you have to adapt all the time. And I think one thing about, say, Gerard, you start over managers, which he's had. But then I think speaking to others, he was almost like a coach when he was on the field anyway, and the way he carried himself. And that was in his club understanding those players. And one thing he has in his favor. In fact, two things. So when he goes into that villa dressing room, even though people haven't seen him do well, managerially in England. Everyone in that understands who he is. And he's one of the few players where I imagine people will be desperate to gain his trust and respect from early doors, even though he's unproven in that position because I think they look they look up to him for say what he did in his career and so on. And the second part of it, which for me is like another reason why he went there. It must be so interesting. This is one of the reasons why I won't be a manager. This is probably going to be one of the only times in Stephen Gerard's career potentially where he's headhunted overlooking for a job because he's been sacked somewhere else. You know, that feeling of being wanted by another team. I think that can make it very hard to say no, because when you look at most managers that appear on these lists, they're only available because they've lost a job before. And the objective is Liverpool to become one that deliver manager is harder to go from rangers and get their Liverpool job with the confidence and the resume that you should have to get the Liverpool job. Then if you go and have two really good years of villa, three really good years, then cloud retires. And then it shows. There's not even a debate. There's no discussion. You come and you take over and then you do well, you don't do well. It is, no, I agree with you. It is a step in the latter. All right, I'm gonna move on to something else in me, but I just want to share my Stephen Jared's story, almost a joke. I'll go one for you as well. All right, we're all gonna have, why don't you go first? Because I want my story to be the last. Okay, good. So Stevie was working at BT sport as a pundit before going into coaching with rangers. It was already working with the liver produce teams..

"What a player rodge, the irons continuing to get results in big games, proving last season was no fluke. London Derby soaked in both aspiration and fear in equal measure spurs entered how soon we forget with two straight wins, which had changed the mood made fans believe they were poised to saw again. But West Ham. There, European endeavors, they have knackered themselves by winning in Europe. I think the two previous match weeks, they'd lost immediately and so there was a feeling this would be spurs day, but it couldn't be further than the truth. West Ham had all the possession and the initiative spurs grapple to match their intensity, try to flicker on the counter, had their chances, but just this team unable to summon the final pass. Yeah, their spurs looked awful. It's why maybe exactly the team for oligarch to be taking his limping man united to next weekend. They should be the next manager. That would be amazing. By the way, spurs are an old lady just they love to attack. They love just, you know, just entertainment. They don't expect to win. That's historically. That DNA, that DNA is what all these made for, but my lord credit West Ham made spurs pay off a set piece. The very place where I believe for the last 5 goals have come from so much power so much height, so many units on that West Ham team David. Yeah, very, very physical football team. And a team that clearly does boys love playing with each other. I love their goal celebrations. It's just oh my God. Well it was he swung in the corner Mora and Kane, both missed it and Antonio, he don't miss not since. Arguably David Jesse Lingard in his pomp has been a guy who seems to score solely so we can unleash the Saudi like Michael Antonio. I've got to get him on the show. Break him down. It's dirty dancing baby left. Eerie drop the neo bullet Dodge man is putting in the hours on the training ground day. Janky puts here this much hours on the sell these as you do on leg bank. That's a lot of hours, rod. The legs are working hard on the lunges. But he's also got natural born talent for it, like he's a man who's full of joy. Yes, as Bob Dylan once said about himself, I'm just a song and dance man for Tottenham fans really the agony lay in how little came by way of response for both of their manager who didn't make a serpent till the 84th minute and on the field where they still lack a creative brain. We've said this in pod after pod the loss of Christian Eriksen years ago still hurts his team and after the positivity of wins against villa and Newcastle, this 5 wins four losses in their first 9 games under nune, what her hair not a shot on goal in the second half, even when they were down, but West Ham, three wins, three clean sheets, David Moyes, what a week. What a job, his team are in fourth favor and deserve to be there. You know, David Moyes also seems to be having a good time. We're seeing him smiling a lot, like being upbeat in post match interviews. There was new teeth, not fit, properly. It's like possible. Let's give him smile. Let's give his hand 'cause I will say redemption. That is a redemption story when I think of David Moyes. I think of the Rudyard Kipling poem if you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you. If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, but make allowance for their doubting too. You know, I look at him and I might you know he teach attire him. He deserves a crack at a big job, right, David. Yeah, maybe Sir Alex was right. He was the right man for Manchester United. Arsenal three Aston Villa won Mickey Arteta makes it 6 unbeaten in the league as arsenal cruise past the villa on Friday night football. Thomas parte had an over rebound from his own penalty and a blitz creeking Emile Smith Rowe. Does he know any other way to krieg? His end to end counter put arsenal up three nil villa pulled one back Vera Jacob Ramsey top bins delivery, but two little too late for the Berber outfit. Arsenal are up to tenth. They haven't lost in the league since that 5 mil beatdown by city in August. He noted to blitzkrieg, he knows how to Ali krieg, but we've got our arsenal back. Arsenal face a game to me. This was a really crucial one in their season. You remember the late embers of vengas regime were like just a M.C. Escher staircase in which a corner seemed to be turned on into turn three more quickly and end up in the same dark place. And Mikhail Arteta's team seemed in danger of replicating that. Yeah, we overwhelmed them. But then we limped to drawers against Brighton and palace. And this Philip thrashed arsenal three nil last season, but you wouldn't have known that from the early exchanges, this Devo, this first half, also as good as I have seen them this season, this was Arteta ball, building slowly intricately from the back, Smith Rowe, just and debutante Tavares overloading the left. It was confident. It was joyous. It befuddled it humbled Aston Villa. Yeah, I mean, there's some observers were still not very impressed by arsenal in this game, but I thought they were superb. You know, once again, some serious question marks have got to be asked about Aston Villa and what exactly is going on over there as they seem to be collapsing somewhat. But I thought arsenal were great. And I like the kind of football they're playing. It's almost like total football. Yeah, God bless part a first goal for his club flicking on the corner delirium and also fans know this team has started so many games well, only to will, especially after scoring first. So it was another real litmus test and arsenal passed it, although again totter know if they did so merely because as you're hinting, villa were so oddly subdued so uncalibrated, they almost seemed like they were drugged. Big signing went there, sloppy, in possession. Arsenal made it too when Matt target consider the soft penalty. Name another player in world football who creates more goals than Matt target. I mean, the only things we've said about Matt target all season. We haven't even referred to the villa frat house, which seems to be, you know, but perhaps it's been shut down for breaking COVID-19. It's been sent off campus. We only talk about target receiving yellow cards scoring own goals and conceding penalties. There's nothing else. You know what that means. He's going to score a hat trick against Everton guaranteed in the rematch. But God love Tina might give away penalties. Here, Emmy Martinez saved from Uber is XT mate, but the Japanese and lash tomb, the rebound, leaving the goalkeeper in absolute agony on the floor, a sight, which I think many Arsenal fans save it almost more than the three points themselves, though for the record. I've always believed rebounded penalty goals should only count half villa. You said, what's happened to them? I can't help but think watching how defensively vulnerable they've come and link it completely conspiracy theory esque to John Terry leaving the coaching team. Nothing to do with grills. Just John Terry gone, but now we should give John Terry credit. He's definitely a defensive master. We take it in the face. No only both organize them, but also, you know, governed through threat. And imminent danger. And some of the tooth of the villa bench seat of disappeared with him. Yeah, regular lessons will remember watched a John Terry Aston Villa defensive drill for an hour in which he just had half the defenders blast the ball at the other half are defenders and shouted at them as they coward. We do not turn our backs on the shot, we've taken it in the face which I just love. This is like classic. Tactics, what tactics just take it? The face. Look, I'm gonna say villa did a little bit better for the back and Concacaf under of Leon Bailey on, but they pushed forward leaving Uber to flick Smith row in on goal three nil with a Ming's deflection to boot. We're a meal, Smith rose team now at hessian tweeted. Did NBCSN pop in an arsenal game tape from 2004 because that's what it feels like. Villa, three straight losses. They looked very, very kazu, but Arsenal fans overscore a lack of impressing youth bedding in a weekend that began with happiness..

I feel like i've kind of been avoiding this 'cause i i don't know if there's this emotional part of me that hasn't wanted to really confront this. Can i. can. I speak in your favor for second. We were injured. Joy in the middle of the euro's and that didn't want you dead is what i was. That is what i was about to say. Is that there were other things happening. In this sport that allowed me to be distracted from the ugliness of this situation whether it was the euro's the gold cup the olympics whatever But now like here. We are the seasons in a week and a half and there is a war brewing between the club and one of their all time greatest and most beloved players. And so i feel like i can kinda no longer avoid this no longer take like a position here and ultimately look i am not i am not a hot takes all right like that's just not that's not my style that is that like a modern day woodsmen. We look and i respect people that are people that can just like looking at an issue. Bank got guys wrong dot guys right moving on like there are people who are great at that and know. I don't know that's just not necessarily that's just not necessarily my style and so this unfortunately kind of falls into that category for me i look at this and i say this is simple. There are no good guys here and it's one of the things that makes the situation particularly frustrating. There is no one that i can root for us. I say no good guys. Because look the tack. That cain is taking is going to do zero to change daniel. Levi's mind nothing. Nothing not one percent. Will this change. Daniel navy's mine. Harry came not showing up. The training doesn't matter but what it will do for kane is tarnished his reputation with this fan base that has been obsessed with him for years. That is ugly and that sad. He's got three years remaining on his contract. Right at is. No position of leverage tottenham are willing to sell you. The club you want to go to is not meeting the asking price and by the way after seeing released go to that same club for one hundred million then no tottenham are not wrong for slapping one hundred and fifty million pound price tag on arguably i said arguably the world's best striker. They're not wrong for doing it. They should be holding out. Like i said with three years left on a contract. That's what you should be asking for for a player of his caliber. Who means that much to this club. But by the same token i also cannot root for daniel levy. Here if what is being said about this gentlemen's agreement is in fact trou- no no. No no no let me finish and then you can tell me. All the reasons. I'm wrong has giving. He has given everything to this club. He has been by far their best player for generation. One of the greatest players in their history depending on who you listen to some say. He's their greatest. Jimmy creates all he's ever asked from. This club was if they essentially back him and keep momentum moving forward and yet when they were in a position of absolute strength they chose to sign. No one. everyone's talking about the six year deal. That cain sign in june of two thousand eighteen. You're right in in hindsight for him. Probably naive shouldn't have done it. It's yes three years left now so they locked him. In june of two thousand eighteen fully on board. Harry kane is all end. Just keep this thing headed in the right direction. That's all he asked. So what was the very first thing they did after signing him literally nothing that was the ensuing months where the transfer window was became the first in primarily history where eighteen signed zero players. That's what they did. After signing came to a six year deal they signed no one and so we look ahead the ripple effect became. What a fired manager that. Cain love hired a controversial one out of total. Desperation didn't work now the club's trajectory is clearly downward which was always canes biggest thing so no one should be surprised that he wants out now. You can be surprised by the way he's going about it but to be totally honest. I'm not. I'm not even shocked by that because all i heard from people leading up to this whenever i'd say that this is going to get messy. All i heard was no canes not that sorta guy but no one is that sort of guy until they are. He hasn't been in this situation. Now he is. He wants out. Daniel levi's the guy he's dealing with. This is the tax these taking. It's not gonna work. That's his flaw. But nothing surprises me anymore. When players want out the problem with cane. And i'm gonna get sappy here for a second but just bear with me. The problem with kane is that this is too emotional. The he's one of our own chance means something to this fan base. Harry kane is not the sort of thing that just happens to tottenham of all clubs. He is the living embodiment of the complete and total opposite. As to what spurs he is he is a nobody from within tottenham zone training academy who turned out to be one of the greatest goal scores of all time. That does not happen to this club. He means something. Different to tottenham and it's hard for people outside of the club to see that and so here we are in one of those situations where we're reminded again that it's the people who you love the most who make you the angriest there's not like a word in the english language. Jj that can describe how much. I love my kids. There's also not a word in the english language that can describe how frustrated they can make me at times. I know that's a grand comparison between harry kane and my own children but the but to a sports fan the logic checks out and this is the reason fan side with ownership over players because we don't love owners they're faceless billionaires. We've never spent time rooting for them..

"So it seems like it seems like a reasonable amount for a for a proven goalscorer. And i i think in a depressed market with covert in everything i think. That's i think that's a lot of money. And i'm not sure about that. No leon bailey for a for a similar price range dot is. That's a move. I can get behind. That one makes a little bit more more sense to me. Yeah i don't i don't know about ings ings. Watkins like they've you know they're they're building an attack and they are building some deck so in that sense. It's a good signing definitely. Yeah and they're not done. I mean there was Reports of who was from our city that they were looking at cantwell. And that's moving closer. Who would who would be a brilliant young signing like a superb young signing So look i. I the downings i mean. We just have to factor in that dining may suffer with injuries. He may this drop off. We have to see if the drop off and goals in production is was just injury related or whether this is the general decline of career as you approach is thirty. I don't know but certainly you know. They're preparing as if that money is going to get spend very very quickly. I i think that since his time at liverpool. I don't think the injury situation has been nelson early. What you're saying no last season is when it when it started. He had a few niggling injuries. Certainly not he's. He's plates over the last two seasons He's played sixty nine out of a possible seventy-six primarily games. Yeah that's pretty good. So i i don't know now that i still look at him and say that's a guy that i'm a. I'm taking injuries into account. That he's gonna miss. You know ten ten games this season. I don't know. I think we'll see but i don't think what's happened over the last two years for him as is necessary indication that non i get hurt. No i'm not saying that but it just seems like you know a lot of money for twenty nine year old will be thirty next season That's all i'm saying and then finally one other one to deal with here. And that is harry kane This has turned even uglier than when we last spoke just a few days ago when we kind of said okay. You hadn't shown up for training that day but football three six five and other outlets reporting that that was planned if he didn't show up the following day then we can have a conversation. Well he did not and and he did not again and he has not again and it is now getting increasingly ugly. I feel like i haven't really. I feel like i've kind of been a voiding this 'cause i i don't know if there's this emotional part of me that hasn't wanted to really confront this. Can i can speak in your favor. For second. we were injured. Joy in the middle of the euro's and that didn't want you dead is what i was. That is what i was about to say. Is that there. Were other things happening in this sport. That allowed me to be distracted from the ugliness of this situation whether it was the euros the gold cup. The olympics whatever But now like here. We are the seasons in a week and a half and there is a war brewing between the club and one of their all time greatest and most beloved players.

"I think that's gonna pay off in the long run. Need for this group to get another cricketer or where the final vegas. It will be big. It will be a big accomplishment. You know when you think about the inexperience the international inexperience of this group. It would be a huge accomplishment to go to the final and win the goal cup. Great work from ricky artistes there with gregg berhalter. The national team manager hook. I got a couple of things that jumped out to me. Anything from the interview. That jumped out to. You is reading of jamaica. How physical team. I said it last. Go around when they play jamaica in europe when they played switzerland when they play northern ireland their ability to defend in transition against more physical teams they struggled with. So i see greg. We're halter recognizes that as well. I think it's interesting. I thought when he said physicality that certainly jumped out to me back in the day one was physicality ever an issue for the united states that that was that was a strength of the us. Men's national team. Leon bailey star man for the jamaican national team joining us. Now on america's. Leon thanks for joining us here on the show.
