"Players off the squad. They've got 33 players now in the first year of squad the roster that the manager has to deal with. So Christian Pulisic, he might not play again this season. He may have played his last game for Chelsea because I don't see what he plays with Jo Felix and all the rest of plays his son. This could be the end of the tool as he could. This could be a long drawn out farewell really. Are you say it could be the end for Christian polis? He's got to go in the summer and you mentioned that he was offered to Manchester United and perhaps arsenal as well. So what's the level of interest around the Premier League and Christian Pulisic when it would come to a summer move? Yeah, I think it changes in the summer. I think in the winter window, I think close up more prepared to take a gamble on a playlist of shorts and fix. I think when the soil comes around, it feels like Newcastle, man united arsenal. They're going to be shopping at the top end of the market. If you want the top striker, Newcastle, to get the Champions League, we'll be looking for very high end. I think policy then will struggle to get a move to those costs because if they're looking to spend maybe 150 million pounds, they're going to be looking for players that are a listers. And with all Jewish vets Christian pillars, he's not an a list. There's not a player that will make a difference at that level. Is a good player to have in your squad. But as you've seen at Chelsea, a clue of a similar statue, he's not been able to make a difference. So I guess he was going to stay in the Premier League. He's going to be looking at a club that's knocking on the door, maybe. An Aston Villa, maybe that level. And that isn't great, I suppose for people who are sick, but I think that's where he's out. I don't think he's going to get a move to a top 6 Premier League club. Europe's slightly different. I think you look at the league, you look at, you look at Germany, maybe Italy. I think it could find yourself at a Champions League, or with those countries because I think that the market obviously will be dominated by the Premier League clubs. So those clubs will be looking for other players that the Premier League clubs are interested in. So I do think a little bit of top club. I just don't think it will be a top club in England because there's so much money in England now that they can buy however they want. And I don't think Christian privacy is in that league of plays that they want to buy. Well, Christian politic looking for a move, Weston McKinney got his move 15 point deduction for Juventus. Obviously, a great move for him to get out of that situation to a team that wanted him. But for Leeds, is this the right move for them? I think it's a great move for Lee's in the terms of the play they've got. I think mckenney will actually lead him and tell Adams would be a good fit in the midfield. I think they've done well. If you take away the connections in terms of the USA connection and Jesse marsh and the ownership at least, I think he's a very good sign, but I think when you factor all that in. It gives a little bit of a problem in the sense that it looks like they were selling American players and it looks like that Jesse marsh only wants plays that he's familiar with from the U.S. or MLS or the point Chris armors as a coach.

"That age old question. Yeah, classic. How many times have we? Every four years. Every four years. All right, you can watch tulane Central Florida. I think you can stop there. Kansas state or the most important soccer match in U.S. history. Is that going to be every match from is the most important soccer match of all time? The further we keep going, the more important or they get. Yes, Marv. Are you guys watching the World Cup game at a bar or in the privacy of your homes? What's 10 a.m.? And I don't know, now bars can get a certain what yeah, lots of bars get permission to serve alcohol before standard times. I've talked to a back in Stanford, Connecticut, and I'm sure all over the country. You can just check with the liquor, your liquor license, and sometimes it's okay to serve early. They just choose not to. But either way, because the World Cup a lot of bars are going to open at 9 a.m. or earlier tomorrow. By the way, Christian Pulisic is expected to play, but he wants to clarify his injury. Everything sorry. His injury. I didn't get hit in the balls. I mean, it's a pelvic contusion. It's not a euphemism, Henry. It's what it sounds like. No, but at the same time, it's not. I didn't get hit in the balls, but I'm all right. I'm all right. It was a very painful, and that bone is there for a reason to protect you, I think, and I hit it well, and it was sore, but like I said, I'm getting better. Just embrace it. Come on, get some new genetics. Yes, you took a nut shot, all right? Yes, it's funny that the guys waited his whole life for this moment and he finally scores a goal in the World Cup. It's like your wildest dreams have come true. You've actually made them happen. And the whole story is about you getting kicked in the balls. I'm gonna embrace it. I'm gonna do a sponsor, put two big soccer balls in front of you and say, I'm Christian Pulisic. And these are my pistachios. Yeah. Go nuts. Yeah, go nuts with Christian plus. Yes. These nuts. Can we start this show over? Our crush. Yeah, well, yeah. Well, the journalistic integrity that we normally have here. Not on full display. So it's a busy sports weekend.

"Belgium have not had a very good tournament so far and it seems to be getting worse not only on the beach, but off it as well where they seem to be imploding a lot of reports fighting amongst the players. It all started with this press conference from Kevin De Bruyne when he was asked whether or not Belgian could win the World Cup, no chance with two old, I think our chance was 2018. We have a good team, but it is aging. After the defeat against Morocco, Jan vertonghen made reference to that, saying we probably also attack badly because we are too old, that must be it now, surely they will then report that Lukaku had to separate Eden Hazard and Kevin De Bruyne from fighting with the tongan Ed hazard then address this saying we didn't fight Jan is taller than me. Nothing happened in the dressing room after the Morocco defeat everything said about it is not true. We told each other lots of things good and bad, some things might not have been popular with some players, but they had to be said to be a Courtois who apparently smashed a bench and dressing room came out and said the problem is that too many lies are spread as situation is described that doesn't exist. Everyone has openly expressed their opinion. Now we have to take action on the field, Roberto Martinez says yes, there is tension in the group. It's natural. If you don't have tension or disagreement in a family, it's because you don't have emotions. Let's welcome back, shall we? Mario. Mario is not the Dutch falling out. That's a bonus. Yeah, definitely. I think it's also because of fungal. You know, he's more in control. And he picked exactly who wouldn't give him any problems because that's why he selected it accordingly. But back to the Belgian one. Wow. You know, like, Matthias was my coach when I was a Wiggins. So that's why I know him personally as well. And the way they're going through it because they like throwing pumps at each other. And yeah, I mean, when I was a week and I had a similarity with him when we got beat by spurs one time. I think it was a 9 one or something. And I came to the club and I went to his office right away and I sat down and I never saw my call to my life the way I saw him. He was in a shock. I was like, wow. What do you do now? On the captain of the team, so I said to him, you know what? I'm going to go down. Can I have a meeting with the team? So I sit down. We have a meeting. I said, we're going to decide to pay the money back to the fans because we need a defense that whole season. So I sit down with TV was outside because I didn't want them to be part of the group. The coach. So I said, I had a conversation. So after the conversation when I had with the team, I had a chat with him. And I asked him, I said, sometimes you got to put your foot down. And you know what he said to me. He said, some people can not handle it. So I got to be accordingly to see how I handle every individual. So now this is happening. I'm like, okay, he's probably handling every individual again. Because look, we're not talking business beyond, but a lot of people forget sometimes. What you achieve as a coach is one thing, but you also have to remember, you're going to camp of egos. And you better know how to handle them. And if you don't sometimes put your foot down and you just keep it nicely, they will walk right over you, and it won't even hit you. And it sounds like nobody's listening. Stops falling. He's got some big decisions to make ahead of this Croatia game. And that's not just up front. Midfielder at the bike, and it's not just the shape, because it's a back fee, and it was about four, castagne was at left back, but we know where one of the men talking points is going to be. There is no way in the world, in my opinion, that he can go into this creation game with Eden Hazard in the fossil level. And it's not even a difficult conversation. Although I know Stevie's touching us before he made him captain. That's his problem though, right? It's not even a difficult conversation with Eden Hazard. You're not playing well with your club. You haven't played with your club. You haven't played well here. You can't last anyone even close to a full match. Maybe I know her. In that hour, you don't even offer a lot. That's just fast port a call, and then you can walk around the rest of the team wherever he wants to do it from there. But if he catches us creation team, the way they responded against Canada and I know they were poor, then this Belgium side, particularly without creation midfield, are in big trouble. It's interesting that Martinez makes reference to the team being a family, Jules, obviously France, and what about families falling out as well. This is quite the story, isn't it? And quite something that it's been played out so publicly. Yeah, this is incredible. I was at that game against Morocco and before the game, we were hearing some rumors about the tensions already within that squad. Some players are not happy with some of the players being called up by Martinez. I think some players feeling that the loyalty that Martin is a show to some players. And they're easy to find, Craig mentioned, has that, of course, I think, is another one. Of course, you go down the Tonga and I'll deliver it. And from the course that we showed earlier in this segment, there's one that we didn't mention is the one that has outset on Thursday when he said our defenders are old and slow, but pretty much that's what he said. Which, again, didn't go down well. And I was told there was no fighting in the dressing room after that defeat against moral code. However, words were exchanged at a meeting yesterday with all the players where they said things to each other that they had to be said, I just feel it's too late now, but you know there's something wrong when the press conferences today were supposed to be Carrasco. And after your 30, the young, the young center back from rain. And then you get late last night, an email from the PRES office is saying, actually, exchange is going to be hazard and the token. So we are thinking, oh, nice. They're going to both come up and we can ask loads of questions about hey, did you really find? And then that changed again from that I'm going to Courtois, and you know there's something wrong. You've got to hazard a coming to basically said, this is not true. Nothing happened. When we all know exactly what happened and we know that this is true, we know there's tension. Sometimes don't speak to each other. When you hear tos before the tournament saying, oh, I deserve to start here. When you know that clearly that's targeting a hazard because they're playing the same position, you know things are not right. And I think when you attack it, when you approach a competition like this one, and there's all the attention within your squad, you can't perform on the page. It's impossible. Mario, what are you shaking your head up? Because it's so funny. It sounds like a big story, but go on. We all like, okay, you know, maybe if not you do, but with Craig, we all know when it comes to the dressing room. One thing you have a coat, you know, it's like a rule that

"I made my three dogs watch this game. Why would you do that to them? They've got put up with you. Well, if I was watching it, they would have done well watching it as well. Wow. Do you want me to condo? Shall we? Shall we face on poisonous for home? I mean, I don't know the group. Obviously, they've won the group. Haven't been great. Mario said this was really a heightened in the sense because Qatar were out, they've been horrible. The positives, clean sheet, that is not a surprise. Memphis depay getting some match time, some more much time some game time, some might sharpness. He'll play, obviously, and that just gives going to give the U.S. a little bit some different to think about because he's a very clever player. So at least I've got him some game time. You mentioned. So there are some positives Louis van hall's men, but they like to slow the pace of the game down unless U.S. aid a young U.S. aid went to try and play a little bit. And I've got pace in the site. So I actually think this is going to be a really intriguing matchup between the Dutch and the United States. Let's take a look then at how the bookies have things set, shall we going into that either Dutch are favorites to make it through to the quarterfinals, the U.S. come in as the underdogs at two to one, what's the feeling? In Holland going into this tie, Mario. Yeah, look, the feeling of the United States facing the United States never was an obstacle. If you look back at the history wise, the way, but the way America's performing now, I feel like they really gaining ground really fast. And the way they're playing, the way they are in the tournament, just some of the plays. If you look at your starting lineup already from the Americans, most of them are playing in the European competitions. So they are not anymore the outside and like back in the day where people were like, oh, I'm not sure if they can handle it. No. You guys can you play high intensity? Correct just mentioned the entity is not a different level. We are young and ask yourself, what is the biggest problem in the World Cup so far? They played high intensity against them and they were they really got challenged. So that's why I feel like the Americans are going to do identical to them. And if I looked at in the last ten that they played, they did exactly the same thing, you know, to get the speed up front way and policy they got atoms you understand in the middle of the park. I like him the way he controls the play and the way he looks around and really you can feel they bust the tempo, but that was Holland always likes to do too. So that's why I feel there's going to be a bigger match than Holland would probably expect because they maybe look at the gaming thing like, oh, it would be easy, but they're lucky that from God doesn't think like that because he keeps on saying like I just go after results. How big a disaster would this be though from a Dutch perspective if you were to go out in the round of 16 against the U.S.? Are we a big one? Why? Because they will see the U.S. it has a more coming up they're not at the level yet where holidays that's how the Dutch think of the U.S. but I because I lived there and it's a different perspective and also because I see so many plays but I just make it abroad. They get a different kind of I think the U.S. is rising really quickly and quicker than we expected them to be because if you saw the game, I mean of course you guys watched the game against England there was already a big answer to see where they came from and we will back in the day we will say things and now the way they perform. I think this is going to be a tough game for Holland. It's not the worst place to be in if you're holding, is it? I can't everybody. You've highly kicked the ball. You won three games. You topped your group. You're planning to say that they're on paper. You know you should be. So I don't think in the badge part of your Holland. But I think it's just the lack of you look at the matches, obviously they drew one two, you can argue they didn't deserve to win, obviously. And then the games. Yeah, but I think the U.S. unfortunately for the U.S. are going to be good opponents for the whole for me. All right, well, the U.S. is a young Jalen. We're talking about the temple. And those players like to be at a hundred mile an hour, it keeps them concentrated. It keeps them going. You know, you're playing against an experienced Deutsche that will put you to sleep. And yes, the U.S. players are playing in top level football, but they're still young. And teams put you to sleep and you go to sleep and all of a sudden you turn around and you're behind. That's my one body with a USA. A police apparently has text western mechanics say he's fit and he'll be ready to play on Sundays. Good luck with that. If I was the first in the U.S. come, I'd look at how we played against England. And we can talk about England's performance and how much that added to it. But they played pretty well, but I would imagine most people would have England pretty much ahead of the Dutch at the moment by quite some way in terms of the plane squad. But yet the U.S.

"Is, he did, he did something that the U.S. have struggled to do in this competition, and that is get numbers in the box. Right. And the one time they did it, and the one time he did it, the score. Now, whether it's him or anybody else, Bill holzer, the fact that he's no good out the group, can maybe take the shackles off a little bit and try and encourage whether it's the players that he's been using or whether he brings in anybody else. Now we can maybe start encouraging people to get in the box because to lose to Holland is no disgrace. He's done his job, basically getting them out of this group. So why don't you open up a little and maybe have a goal? We'll talk about the whole game a little bit later on, but let's focus on Christian Pulisic, Casey. It very much now writing himself into American folklore along with land and Donovan. I suppose, in 2010, not quite as dramatic, but just as effective. And I think there was a lot of pressure on Christian, you know, with the way the season and maybe the last season at Chelsea have played out, he's had some injury issues. Wasn't always available for qualifying, showed up at qualifying, started to get into form, scored the key goals to help the team make it. And then, you know, again, we'll go back to that point. When you're a team like a United States and you got four or 5 players, you got a player in Juventus, you got a player at Chelsea, you got a couple players that leads, you got some Fulham players, some guys around the world. You talked about Cameron Carter Vickers at Celtic. You need those guys who have Champions League experience who have maybe a relegation fight experience to step up for you. And maybe then some of the other guys who haven't quite had that experience can be a little bit calmer because of the way you're playing the way you're setting the tone. And I think you got to give Christian a ton of credit because he's done a great job under a lot of pressure to be able to come in and perform. I think the hard part is, I think we all see the talent that Christian has. And we want to we want to think that he could get two goals against Wales and maybe a goal against England and then three assists against Iran, but it's just not it's just not the DNA of this team. So when you can pick and choose your moments, have that moment where you make a difference in a scoreline, that's all you can ask. And Christian is definitely stood up and done that in this World Cup so far. I think the difference for him has done is that I don't know what everybody thinks, but GRE in our park. It really is the big cheese here. Right. And so in order, I'm not there is a cocky guy. I'm not saying that, but he knows he is. I'm not even going to say the Captain America. She just said it. I couldn't find the way to get around it. Well, effectively, he knows that. And it's kind of a kind of chess puff dough. And people will say, you know, and I know a lot of American soccer fans continue to go on about his place in the Chelsea side. But it definitely says here, he is the big fish in this pond. And then he goes back to his club and he's not. And sometimes for players, that is difficult. And once they come out that shale and go to the international team yet, there's still a huge pressure. Of course, it's a World Cup. But it knows of his Fett is in the team and he's playing in his confident. Now if he makes a mistake, it will still be playing. And sometimes from a plane perspective, you're seeing a better Christian pillage for the national team than they are, even when he gets an opportunity at his club. Another chapter for his book. Yeah, another chapter go down as a very successful one so far. Listen, you mentioned it, Dan, you talk about Landon Donovan, you talk about Clint Dempsey. What are those players have? They maybe don't have, didn't have the ceiling of a Christian Pulisic, but they had the World Cup. They had the international moments. That's what was missing for Christian polis. He got the assist. Now a goal. He continues to be one of the most dangerous players for the U.S. national against England, hit the cross bar against Pickford, tight angle. He continues to puff that chest out like Craig is mentioning. He's getting better and better and listen. Casey saw him when he was part of Jurgen's coaching staff. They introduced him into the national team to see that kid from then to now it's light years ahead of where most of these players that we were talking about were at that age. And he continues to get better. I need that from him. I need him to puff that chest out, Craig, because you mentioned it. He's a big fish in a small pond. I just want to change something because I know you've got to go in a moment. Georgia, there's quite this soap opera that seems to be developing around him, obviously there were suggestions that bear holt had told him to lie about being fit.

"His next two games. Herc in the past we've blamed the manager different managers, the club, et cetera for Christian Pulisic, playing time issues at Chelsea, is it time now that we focus in on the player himself? It's time, Seb. There's a constant here, right? Towards the end wasn't plain with our fabric. Gets to Chelsea, 70 million plus transfer fee, wasn't playing with Frank Lampard. Frank Lampard departs, it's Thomas Tuchel, who gave him his start, Abu rusha Dortmund. Doesn't play with Thomas Tuchel. Thomas Tuchel leaves, and it's grand Potter who comes in. And he's not playing now. At some point and it comes to every footballer, you have to analyze what is impeding your development. You've been playing more. You from being better. And have a hard look in the mirror and say, this has happened here. That's happened there. And the one constant is me. What is Christian Pulisic need to do? Himself to change things. Does he need to be more vocal? And what I mean by that is oftentimes there are guys who make it difficult for coaches. By their attitude by the way the demand things. By the way, they are within the locker room. Make it difficult for coaches to take them out of that lineup and yes, including their play. But he needs to make it difficult. Some way, somehow, because his career is going. And I'm not going to sit here and say where he is isn't a high level. But you have players, excuse me, you have pundits, you have people questioning if you're a player for that high level. I couldn't disagree with you more here. I don't think ballistic is the problem. I think it's, I think it oversimplifies it to say, well, there's all these different managers. And he's not worked out under those different managers. Because one, I don't think it's fair to say that he hasn't worked out. And I think each manager, there's a different story. Like if you go back to Lampard, right? The first manager there. Christopher Lisa was super productive under Frank Lampard. He had 11 goals in his first season. Basically, a goal every three games in his first season in the Premier League, and the only thing that really kept him from developing into a bigger role was his injuries. I know at the end under Tuchel and all fell apart, right? But it fell apart for every attacking player at Chelsea under Tuchel, nothing that the coach tried worked, and that's why he lost his job. But if you go back to the height of tuca Chelsea, he actually did trust Christian Pulisic a lot. If you go back to the Champions League run and even the Champions League Final where he doesn't start. Tuco only makes her two subs to attacking subs in the game. He makes three subs, but one of them was Thiago Silva. So basically a force defensive change. He only made two changes, one of them was pulisic. He let him play a half hour and he did it while Chelsea was winning one zero in the Champions League Final. He trusted him with a lead in the Champions League Final injuries hurt and then tickles inability to get the most out of the attack hurt that relationship as well. What's really worrying for me about this Potter situation is that the contract that we have always known between player and coach that if I give you an opportunity, your productive with it, you'll get more opportunity, seems to have been broken. And we can point to the game against wolves, we starts and he scores, and then there's back to back DNP. But herc, you can also go back to the very beginning of the grandpa to run. And everyone right now is talking about, oh, Chelsea looks so good under grandpa or 6 unbeaten, 5 wins in a row. Go back to the very beginning. Champions League, the first game against Salzburg, uninspiring one one draw. Second game under Potter, Premier League against Crystal Palace, heading towards another uninspiring one one draw and what happens. He brings in Christian Pulisic, who he waited until the 84th minute to bring on, and Christian Pulisic drives at The Crystal Palace defense draws them in, dishes to Connor Gallagher's wonder goal. So right there, right? It's a different start to grand Potter's tenure at Chelsea if not for what Christian Pulisic has done. He has done the job. He has been productive and he has not been rewarded because what happened after that assist, the next game was Champions League against Milan, how many minutes did he play zero? I don't think it's Christian Pulisic. I'm not, I'm not willing to say that it's a manager or all the managers. To me, the bigger problem here is the constant here. It's the club. It's Chelsea. It's the chaos. Dormant in the end as well. There is your dormant thing they knew he was out the door. You have to put proper context to that. Prototype. That's going to say, I don't feel like playing this guy. If you think he's going to help him. Now, Christian Pulisic is a very good player. I'm not discounting how good he is for an American player. But at the end of this contract with Chelsea, if he gets sold, if he plays out the contract and he leaves, at the very end, if things don't change, it's going to be seen as an utter failure. It's going to be 7, $70 million for a player that didn't live up to what they thought he would live up to. And that's the reality of things here. Look, I won't disagree with you that some part of it is that maybe Chelsea is too big a club. There's too much competition there for him to get guaranteed minutes. But if you're going to point to Chelsea and point to it being a big club, you have to acknowledge her the chaos. The ownership changes. Of course. Coaching changes. That has not helped a young player in his early 20s trying to adjust to the Premier League to become a regular starter. That has to play a huge role in it. And for me, that's why he's got to have a good World Cup, so that market value goes up. So come the winter, Chelsea's motivated to sell it. And Chelsea's been the same way from the beginning. He wouldn't be the first player that didn't pan out. I will remind you. If he has a Kevin De Bruyne, a career, you're not too upset. Lukaku didn't pan out. There have been players at Chelsea for whatever reason. Don't pan out and they have productive careers elsewhere. Could that be the case for Christian politics? Sure, but you can't sit here with a straight face and say everything around Christian ballistic is the problem and he doesn't have some culpability in it as well. All right, let's move on from Christian Pulisic who did not play on the weekend and did not score, but

I remember when I was a kid and I was going to the stadium, and they were chanting awful chance to Roberto Carlos and it was something kind of fun and nobody would say that. This, of course, has changed. It's very difficult to explain, but it's in Spain. It's maybe a country that hasn't got open to the world until 45 years ago. I did not dictatorship and I would have had that many race mixing as probably we can find in the rest of course America or Europe in France and Germany, of course the UK. So here things took more time. So now I think most of the society, I want to think that take that in a more serious way. But maybe not too much. And there are some clubs who have done their homework earlier. I'm talking about especially the two bigger clubs through elementary and Barcelona. They did that in the early 2000s. And some other clubs, they haven't, I don't know if they haven't been able to do it. Or they didn't take that too seriously. Actually, we're talking about it's a different situation, but Atlético matrix was had the sanction last year of web because some supporters when they went to the Etihad stadium. They did some fastest salute and they had this 5000 sits empty. This never happened because they were knocked out from the Champions League and the sunshine was never applied. So I think a part of the society are still not aware of how bad this is, how this thing is all full and they say, oh, okay, this is a sport is some kind of fun and we had some debates in the media awful debate just before this there would be happening and I think this is one of the motivations of what happened just outside the metropolitan. So I think we must do much more here in Spain to fight against racism, sexism and homophobia and this kind of behaviors that are actually happen. And I think that international media is attention and pressure and even our president saying that will be helping. I think in this situation, there will be a stronger action because we have seen this in the past with Dani Alves. They throw a banana or last year when this Juan Kala and papadia incident, nothing happened. So I think this time it will be taken much more seriously. Let's say, let's see how this develops. Meanwhile, Gemma away from Madrid, big story breaking out of Barcelona, looks like it's going to drop on Wednesday regarding a leaked document showing Lionel Messi's demands for staying at Barcelona. Yes, this is a story that will be happening this Wednesday, the newspaper Al mundo. They are already had already had the contract and multi millionaire contract of Messi and the scope that they got that leaked. And now they are leaking a lot of documents emails WhatsApp conversations with what Messi and their representative, their family were asking to have his renewal in the 2020, this was just before that boot of facts that he eventually said he wanted to go. And these are like crazy requests to us for the renewal. He was asking for three more seasons until 2023, a private box at the Cano for himself, his family. And as to what Luis wale family, €10 million, renewal, bonos, private plane to Argentina for his family on Christmas and much more, much more, especially some requests that now these days that they don't look that well like recovering the witch cuts during the pandemic with a 3% of increased rate. So this was something that president Burton accepted at that time. He accept a lot of this condition, some of them that he considered was impossible. He did not. We have to wait, of course, this has just happened in Spain. We need to wait for what messy family I'm sure they will respond on that what they have to say. But this can maybe make us understand what the divorce of Messi and Barcelona happened because we honestly can still not understand. We didn't have all the information. So we have to wait to see to analyze to listen to message family and of course representative his father reply and to see what happens there and what really happened. I'm sure these documents are true because there were before. But it can put a little bit of light in a story that we couldn't really understand. It's too early to say done, but it can put some light to that end abrupt end and that search is surprising story. I wonder who could have possibly leaked it. Gemma, thank you very much, as always, for joining us. You can check out a lot more analysis

"Do in the Austrian Bundesliga cup and Champions League. That's what my focus and concentration are all on, I would ask if you were so concentrated why even speak to Chelsea gap. 100%. I mean, he said, you know, you had to do it when a club like Chelsea comes calling. Again, I don't want to make fun of Salzburg, but when you put it like that, it's hard not to. I'm sorry, what important things you have to do? The market that the transfer window has closed, you won, I think the last 37 consecutive titles by a million points, you will probably do it again because you are the wealthiest and best run club in Austria by far. Shortly there's something else behind it. I'm assuming maybe it's a bigger role within the Red Bull organization, maybe not now, maybe down the road. I would hope that it's some sort of Red Bull counter offer than that did this rather than him looking at Chelsea looking at bully looking at the people around him and saying, oh, I don't really want to be a part of this. Because obviously you said, career wise, there's no comparison. You know, he served Salzburg. He's done his job there. So I can't imagine him doing a one 80 based on him seeing something that Chelsea that he didn't like. But rather, I must have been Red Bull pulling a club pulling at his heartstrings, you know, maybe with a raise and more responsibility. Things aren't going that well at Chelsea at the moment again. Well, I mean, they need a director of football. We've all said it from day one. You can't have Todd boley as your interim sports director. I don't think it's something he wants to do. And it's something that I don't think he was particularly good at. So yeah, they got to get moving. They've been linked with the guy at Bayer Leverkusen, who, you know, frankly seemed several orders of magnitude down from the people they were linked with before. Obviously Michael Edwards at Liverpool, Paul Mitchell and Monaco, maybe he could come back into the frame. I would have thought Chelsea would have had a ton of appeal. Or maybe less so because then I go back to this, there's 300 million less to spend because they spent it all in the summer to buy players for Thomas Tuchel, who they then fired 6 days after the transfer window shut. That could be a possibility too. Meanwhile, gam, Champions League games in the states, tell us more. Yeah, this isn't a new thing. I mean, I think chuck run threw it out there, three or four years ago, the UEFA president. But it's come back to the floor this week. UEFA's executive committee meeting in Croatia on the lovely island of var. I hope I'm pronouncing it correctly. The politics family no doubt could pronounce it better than I can. And then later the European clubs association meeting in Istanbul as well. This is on the table. The idea is that is this something we want to do, is it going to be lucrative, the answer to that is probably, yes, how lucrative is it worth our while? Is it going to upset fans? I think at this stage, the only things that were probably considering is what's been talked about before. You know, rather than having a Super Cup between the Europa League winner and the Champions League winner, what if you had in pre season to sort of kick off your season, what if you had some sort of final four tournament? Maybe you invite the two Champions League finalists from the previous year plus the Europa League and the Europa conference league winner. And you have something maybe in the U.S.. Would that be more appealing than some of those summer tours that we see? The broader backdrop to this is obviously clubs wanting more and more and more revenue. And it's not just the games that bring you revenue. It's the exposure when you travel abroad. That's why you have them abroad rather than in Europe, our brothers should say outside Europe. And probably to some degree as well, you know, UEFA wanted to kind of elbow their way a little bit on the global stage. You know, I think it's an open secret that the relationship while supposedly it's thawing between UEFA and conmebol on one side and FIFA on the other hasn't been great in the past. Dave clashed, is this a way of expanding UEFA's footprint a little bit and how will FIFA and conquer calf as well? I would assume, how would they react to it? So that's why this is on the table. I don't expect anything concrete other than perhaps some sort of working group to go and study this possibility. I don't expect anything else to come out of it at this stage. Good stuff can I have, as always, thank you very much just to remind you, you can listen to more of gap

"Not any other player. Going gap. I just want to say I was a bit surprised, but what's TV said about when you tell a player is going to start and then you as a coach change your mind. I mean, I would have thought surely to hold job depends on delivering results. And if he changes his mind, whether through gut instinct or whether because he simply changes his mind, surely as a coach, you have to put out whatever the best 11 you think is on that day. No matter what you might have told players before. Well, yeah, but part of your job is to keep the players on site. So you're not going to keep anybody on say by telling them one thing and particularly this situation. The semifinal of a Champions League and you just pull the rug away. What do you think is going to happen? So yes, things are not always. Things are not just black and white guys. I can't argue that you have to. You should have kept these chop shop. You should never have told them it was going to play in the chambers of the examining final. And then the deal of pilgrim. What do you think is going to happen? How do the teammates feel about that? Does that make sense? Let's be in public. Well, the teammates don't really care. Right. Another players do. No. They'll all be laughing. What are you doing reading a book? You're only 24. They're not going to do a 5 or so. And they'll be it. No problem. That would be no problem. Well, I would go as far as to say, I would get a copy of the book and say, can you sign it for me? And dedicated to me, please. Well, somebody's convinced them to do it. Because it will make money. Look, do that. People in America are interested that we're a big seller in America. So going through it and they did it. Let's stick with Chelsea, of course, big news today. Christopher freund, who we thought was going to come in, didn't we?

"Welcome to late edition of ESPN FC, I'm Dan Thomas joined the studio today by ally Moreno and Stevie nickel. Surprise, surprise, we started today's show with Manchester United. And of course they're desperate to get bodies in before the transfer window shuts at the end of the season. The latest player linked to a move to Old Trafford, his U.S. international Christian prolific, obviously not getting a lot of minutes at the moment under Thomas Tuchel, looking to get some playing time ahead of the World Cup in November, but will it happen? Well, here to give us some insight. We welcome in Frank labov James Ollie and rob Dawson to the show. Rob, let's start with you. United are they genuinely interesting? Yep, the interest is genuine. They've made an inquiry at the very least. It's been confirmed by united. It's also been confirmed by Kelsey's end. Obviously it's not gone as any further than that just yet. It would need Chelsea to agree to for any kind of deal to go ahead, but there is certainly interest from the united. What are you hearing, James, and Chelsea happy for it to go ahead? Well, they don't ideally want to sell him or loan into a direct rival. I mean, there's a debate about whether Chelsea and united are even rivals anymore, but historically, of course they are, and they don't really want to strengthen other rival for theoretically for the top four. But I think pulisic would quite like this move. I think that easy the situation at Chelsea where he's become a little frustrated under Thomas Tuchel. He didn't play a lot last season. I think he started 13 Premier League games. Yes, he had injuries in amongst that, but he couldn't really get any rhythm he was being played in various different positions. And I think he wants a bit of clarity and a bit of regular game time leading into what is obviously going to be a huge tournament for him in Qatar. Most definitely, Stevie, but this makes sense in your opinion. Makes sense for pulisic. I mean, what would you rather do? Would you rather go to a mid table team? Would you rather go to the table? But would you rather go to a historical show at Manchester United? I'll go to Southampton. It's a no brainer. Right. It can only get better for you at Manchester United. And the fact is, he's the type of player that you need to know. Somebody who will come in and who will give

"Camp aren't really sure if that's ever going to happen. Do you think it's ever going to happen at Chelsea? Maybe, but I don't think it's going to happen with Thomas Tuchel and I don't think that's the case just from Christian Pulisic. We see a lot of unhappy, very unhappy offensive players. Our Chelsea Christian Felicia is just one of those players in that stable. Lukaku is unhappy. Lukaku is one of the most expensive transfer excuse me in world football and he's unhappy. Maybe only two out of that handful will be somewhat content with their role Mason Mount and Kai Havertz. Everybody else, team of Werner, ZH, Hudson odoi, Christian Pulisic himself, Lukaku will be not happy, and I'm sure Christian political have lots of options, whether he wants to stay at Chelsea, stay in London as Mark pulisic says that he's very happy and is another case. He's 23 years old. He wasn't really a consistent starter or a prime player at Dortmund. He hasn't been a prime player despite the number ten in his back or on his back for Chelsea. At some point, especially leading up to a World Cup in a World Cup here, you want to be that player, especially if you're the face for U.S. soccer. Well, you've always said he's a big game player, perhaps no game bigger, at least left on this season for Chelsea than the FA Cup final. We know that's coming up on. What is it? May 14th. That's why Saturday may 14th, the FA Cup available for you right here on ESPN+ our coverage starts at 1125 a.m. Eastern Time that day. Let's see if we get another big performance against Liverpool from Christian ballistic. We know we have seen that in the past. Speaking of Americans.

"Pulisic, with this tweet, quote, the sad thing is he loves the club, teammates and London puts his heart and soul into being a pro. Onwards and upwards my boy, big 6 months ahead. We should note that this tweet has since been deleted. All right, herc, help us read between the lines here. What is Mark pulisic really saying about Christian Pulisic at Chelsea? I don't know, it could be talking about a number of things. All I know is it's not helpful. I'm a father. I understand once natural instinct to protect or to defend your child. I understand that it must be very difficult to hear, to read, to see some of the comments made about Christian Pulisic per Mark. I understand this, but he has to realize he's not protecting his child in this moment. He's hurting him. He's magnifying an already glaring and very low moment for Christian in the public eye. He's adding fuel to that fire. So essentially what he wanted to do, it's reversing on him, exploding in their face. And to the extent where it's now been deleted. So either heat to his own conclusion has realized this is the route to go or even Christian Pulisic himself has asked his father to take it down. I understand I repeat. What it's like to be a father and want to protect your child, but this is the opposite effect. Yeah, I guess my question here is, is it a sign of something bigger, right? Is it a sign of further frustration? Because we already know there's been some frustration in the pulisic camp about his situation at Chelsea. I think it's obvious that, yes, it is. And I think it's the same kind of fundamental tension that we've had not just all of this season, but really since Christian Pulisic got to Chelsea and that is everybody on this side of the pond, probably a lot of people on that side of the pond too when you look at the sticker price saying, okay, well when is Christian Pulisic going to become a full-time starter at Chelsea? I think that frustration is coming from a place now where the people in the pulisic camp aren't really sure if that's ever going to happen. Do you think it's ever going to happen at Chelsea? Maybe, but I don't think it's going to happen with Thomas Tuchel and I don't think that's the case just from Christian.

"Had, leda goes to Cruz and Sue. They sell. They can't afford to keep them. Okay, so that's the Concacaf Champions League. Let's talk about that other Champions League here. The one that goes across across the pond over there. The UEFA Champions League Real Madrid and Chelsea in the quarterfinals first like Wednesday at Stanford bridge in case you live under a rock. Real Madrid won the game three one hat trick from carim Ben sima Kai Havertz with the Chelsea gold Christian Pulisic, Scott the start, played 64 minutes as well. Hook, I wonder what you made of his performance. I should note le keep the French paper gave him a two out of ten and called him one of the flops of the game alongside Thiago Silva. It keeps it that. Why didn't you say so? Leke said it. All right. Well, it's gold. It must be true. They said it. You know what? Let's go to lickey. Our good friends at the athletic did a favor for me. They translated the little caption that Lake had when their little score. They gave him a two, right? This is what they said. The caption explaining the rating. Thank you to my good friends at the Atlantic. We do not know where he was and not many people saw him. It's true. That he was not helped on the left wing by a low attacking contribution from a right footed aspect. With Marcos Alonso, he would have had more support, more spaces, ghostly and substituted a halftime. Which was quite merited, they said, my man played till the 64th minute. What came were they watching? Substituted a half time. So take your keep somewhere else, okay? These ratings are so stupid. I'm tired of these. I'm trying to suffer. Be pro football.

"For an opportunity elsewhere the right time. Okay, let's the right devil's advocate for a second. Let's assume that Barcelona could one get him there because it's $75 million transfer fee. No, no, I'd be alone. It'd be alone. No, no, no, no, no. From Dortmund and Chelsea is not a player in the coming cheap. Let's just for a second assume because as this outlet said they need to get very creative in the way they created accounting and deal structuring to get Christian political there. So that tells you something. But if you can get a player like Christian political, and let's play devil's advocate for a second. Chelsea have done crazier things. At one point they had Mohamed Salah. They had Kevin De Bruyne. They had Romero Lukaku in their fold. In that stable. And they let him go. Let them all go. And if they could do with his weekly salary of a 150 million or a 150,000 pounds a week, which is something like $200,000 a week if they could do with that and get them there, why wouldn't you bring them there? He's a player that when he's healthy, he's proven to be in a very effective player at a very elite level. This is a winger that would fit in perfectly with shavi and chubby's interpretation of space and movement. And that TikTok at that but football. If you can get a player like Christian ballistic there, we're right after a junior death is being utilized. Why wouldn't you bring him in there? And a player like Christian Pulisic, who has shown to be very good against very physically capable defenders in the Premier League you're going to tell me he couldn't be very, very good. And now they so physical league like La Liga, I don't believe it. I would take it in a heartbeat. Him, Christian Pulisic, wearing one of the most iconic jerseys in world football. Yeah, I'd take that. It sounds like you're sold from a Barcelona perspective. Are you sold from a Christian Pulisic perspective? Because he would be leaving the European champions. No, I wouldn't be sold from a Christian Pulisic perspective. Barcelona today. This isn't the Barcelona of yesterday. No other Barcelona where we could potentially get with shavi in 5 years time. You're going to a team that's has to be dismantled started from the bottom. And per a lot of different people and chubby himself ground up. La masia, back to your roots. By the same time, hurt more playing time, isn't that, isn't that the tradeoff? Well, Christian gets playing time when he's healthy. When he's southeast fighting, he's thriving. The problem is you need to stay healthy. That's the issue for Christian Pulisic. I have no doubt Christian ballistics and step into any team in the world and play. He just needs to be healthy. Okay, we'll see if any more comes from these rumors about Christian politics and a potential move to Barcelona. One more thing from Friday night..

"Deal with Vanessa. And the brief stint he played against Costa Rica that he was a tremendous in the limited time we got him to see him, but he's really expanded his game. I thought he struggled in the goal cup. I thought he was one of the big players. We had hopes for big hopes for and he struggled. While he's putting some of those doubts to RAS, he's getting to be a better player on and off the ball. Both sides of the ball and venetia. And I think it's a player that gives you a little versatility. Yeah? He's not that ball winner 'cause part of me thinks he's gonna go with Kellen o'clock instrument. He likes that physicality. He likes the athleticism and the defensive effort that Kalani Costa gives you. But if you really want to add another element of buildup of play, creativity, even set pieces. I think John Lucas is your man and I would go with luzio. Okay, so you mentioned boozy oh, you mentioned Kellen Acosta. You haven't mentioned two names in which we know are options for Greg berhalter, but also we know will upset some U.S. men's national team. Sebastian legit, Christian rolled on. What are the odds that you think we see either of those two guys either as a starter or as a sub in Jamaica? Pretty high. Yeah, I think rolled down as a sub absolutely. You're going to see him Greg berhalter enjoys what he gets out of a busy roll down and roll down to his credit. He creates things. He may not get on the score sheet with the goal or an assist, but he's always one of those guys that presses the right moment creates things for his teammates. He's a very good teammate, which is very hard to find at any level. He's one of those guys that Gregor halter knows what he gets from him and Sebastian legit. He just seems to be one of the confidants of Greg ber haltern. I know he's at his up and downs, but Sebastian legit at his peak at his best U.S. misogyny is a very capable player. I just don't think he's in a very good moment right now. Short answer here. We know we're going to see at least two changes because they're forced. We know he's not going to start scallion so you're not going to get that change which is one that you want to see. You did just beat Mexico to nothing like, don't you have to reward the other 9 guys by keeping them in the lineup, especially without the need for rotations. I would almost assume that you can't really make changes here. I wouldn't make try to you hit it out of the park when you said. This is a two game window. You don't treat it like a three game win, and you think you have to make these changes. So why did you want to put scallion for yedlin? Because I want to get him that experience. I think this is when you get his feet wet. We talked about it in the pre game show in the post show about how Joe scally should have been brought in last window. Well, if you're already late to that, and you think sergino dest might not be durable, you think there will be a chance for Joe scally at the right back or left back position because he's played both with glide back. You bring him in, you get him acclimated and you get him going. This can no longer be an excuse about this experience in Concacaf. When it comes to Christian Pulisic, the term judgment call was used her. Your judgment, if you're the manager, do you start Christian politic in Jamaica? Well, this changes with the Mexico win. You have the luxury of having that. When you don't need to stress out and think Christian political has to be your go to guy and also Greg for halter has already tipped his hand.

Hackers Break Into the US Treasury, Nuclear Agency, Microsoft, and 18,000 Companies
"Out this afternoon that in the solar winds hack of their orion product and orion is basically a network tool that has access to servers and systems on a particular network. It's essentially network tool but in that hack that we we've learned about just this week where russian intelligence service has hacked the solar winds core code which solar winds then pushed out to their customers as an update between march and june. We found out today. That the hackers were able to access systems at the national nuclear security administration. And that's according to an article from pulisic. Oh so this network tool that. Solar winds created the upgrade server was hacked by russian intelligence services in such a way that the code that they then pushed out to all of their customers included the the hacked code from the russian intelligence services. And we're just discovering the extent of the hack but they'd think according to the political article that the heck was limited to just the business networks at this point they think but here was frank figliuzzi on msnbc. This afternoon in frank is a former f. b. i. assistant director for counterintelligence and have a listen to what he said. They've had four years of free license to do pretty much what they wish there. They're doing some last minute shopping so to speak before a new president takes over and they're getting done what they need to do. But it's a there's another level here. Which is this chaos and discord. They need to. We need to understand that. This is going to continue. This is the new warfare. And you know as as donna has said this is again kind of a post nine. Eleven response to this. Is the question. The organizational structure of our government's ability to respond to this right. After nine eleven year recall. We created a deny. We embedded cia and fbi together under one roof and a counterterrorism center. We created the department of homeland security. It's time now to question whether or not our government is properly positioned to deal with the new warfare. The new threat. So that's a nice way of putting it. He says the russians are doing some last minute window shopping and what he means is they're doing some last minute trump administration window shopping and folks whether we like it or not to protect our national security. We're going to have to have more oversight into the private companies that create things like these tools like the orion product. We're going to have to have more oversight and we're gonna have to ensure that best practices are followed software. Updates are applied securing code and and certifying code either on a real time or near time basis that the code that we deem critical that we're running on our critical machines that were important for national security. The united states that the code that we're running is indeed the code that we should have in. It hasn't been hacked. It hasn't been changed in any way there needs to be a check so that the code. That's running is verified on a real time or near time basis. So right now what happens

Explainer 152: Will Spain see its third prime minister in a year?
"It can be that'll. In sickles. Lost year. Spain found itself for the shiny, new prime minister, petro, Sancez bitter. Fittest which which has renting. Which has. Clueless and leader of the socialist posse had a winning smile was good at basketball. And at least visually was a welcome change from the rather dour figure of his predecessor Mariana who are. Roy had been the leader of the fifth largest economy in Europe since twenty eleven an old and safe pair of hands his strategy of keeping quiet and carrying on that Bruce Spain back from the brink of economic collapse. But a rather unskillful handling of the Catalan crisis and a slew of corruption charges sore no confidence vote up held last summer and rehoist People's Party was ousted Sanchez and his left wing coalition. Government achieved power. She the the. The Makoto villa in country. Stepping down report you government of Frankenstein coalition and warned of the mismatch interests in Sanchez's cabinet. It wasn't just sour grapes talking to build on his socialist parties rather meagre eighty four seats in three hundred fifty seat parliament Sanchez had to partner with Damon. The pro independence Catalan parties as well as the Basque nationalist party and some others while everyone agreed. It was a good idea to get rid of her. They haven't found much to agree on since see the Anthony. Winter you not interesting good. They as much of those voters imitators telematic committee. Ashton's Eunice owner in Gaza Quintex, less minutes. Breath career. On wednesday. The Spanish parliament voted down Sanchez's 2019 budget them, some bold ideas in it measures included, the combating of child poverty, raising the minimum wage and allocating more money for pensions. But we will never know if these reforms will make life better for spaniels or indeed whether they've been tenable in a country with debt to GDP ratio of ninety eight percent and unemployment of nearly fifteen percent now Sanchez will be forced to call a snap election. Sanchez was hyping the two big Catalonian. Parties would vote in favor of his budget in the fed. An election would usher in a right-wing government, which would be forcefully opposed to Catalan succession. Finding the fire is the high profile trial of the twelve Catalan separatists in Madrid this week and Sanchez's Catalan colleagues are not in a month. Cocoa. At this point cooling snap election appears to be Sanchez's sole option. Fortunately, it will serve to create a quick smokescreen following the disastrous rejection of the budget, the PM could seize upon it as an opportunity to secure a fresh mandate to lead the country. But this is wishful thinking, we're more likely to see a hung parliament an equally monstrous Franken stinian coalition following the new normal. It appears is fragmented pulisic's as lack of consensus and an inability to agree on a joint course of action as well as this to Spain really want to see is the prime minister in the space of one year.

"He can be allowed to grow a situation like berries. And he's already got minutes before I expected it. He played what nine minutes Kennedy match today for about nine nine minutes. That's a lot more than I thought he'd even get I thought he'd be just part of the first team and they'd gradually integrate them into. So they're already looking and get them. First minutes that's already a win anything that happens with what is a win. Let's keep that straight different scenarios. We losing he broke. He's he's LA Hoya. I don't think that it's the case every anything God bigots Titians for him in your always because your van and also because he's the is Bryce Mexican export ever because he's size dance. Another debatable shirt wanted chunky because everybody's to. We can't find an exempt figure and your inflation will hold on. Not only inflation you have to figure in how much percentage of future transfers these teams. But you go some. Yes, twenty I do not know the actor that comes some percentage just a problem. So let's reserve this bright talk really quickly close to and all that factors into things. Like, dude. I I don't I just can I ask. I'll watching bettys every week and. His price life politic's price is inflated because of where they come from the North American market. I don't know about that. Because I think you could say everybody has a reason why their prices inflated, I say this Argentine guys prices inflated 'cause he's Argentine or Brazilian Mexican guy got sold to injure. What was it price tag? It was lower than license. But lions commands a different market like chew ki- like like villa like Christian pulisic is this market North America. And I'm talking about the US market. And I'm not just talking about Americans because we talk about US market big chunk of that consumers who you have a Mexican American which is what which is why just a Mexican living in in America. The numbers fascinate me. Actually, it's a really interesting study, you spent seventy three million Christian, pulisic and. Two years Champions League Buddhists again this belt. So the numbers, but with this three let me just put this out there. If I was a sharp. If my goal is European club was to capture the American market, you can see this. But I'm air quoting right? I wouldn't be critical is it you win signed Christian for this. If you wouldn't be the first player at sign if I was a smart executive, and I wanted to have people living in the United States care about my team player. I would not saw would not play for the second biggest eight or even the United xactly that's Mexican players on trying to get out with dig lightness know, I fully understand what you're saying. I think it's a very smart thing to do many people confuse the American market would just being American. If you see if you get a Mexican player. Have you got dinosaur? Tuckey you get the American market correct bigger chunk of the American skin any American play which telling that the Mexican market, and when you do that which running on so price should be inflated. Player. Look at. One hundred minutes less much as I love. There's a very short six hundred team Dr goals, thirty nine first-team games.
