WEBVTT 1 00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:30.079 Bass has dropped on a new round of Sdham John 2 00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:31.719 here are you there? Is trying to figure out if 3 00:00:31.719 --> 00:00:33.920 I needed to hit a certain box or something to 4 00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:36.840 make sure that when Tyler Pilgrim joins us from Scarves 5 00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:39.399 and Spikes in about ten minutes, that it's not going 6 00:00:39.479 --> 00:00:41.560 to look like me in a really small box in 7 00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:45.600 a corner someplace, and then Tyler comes in and everything's fine. 8 00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:48.399 We got MLS in the midweek. 9 00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:51.799 We'll talk about that and we'll see if the busiest 10 00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:54.520 man in the Northeast, Dyllan Butler from MLS Soccer dot com, 11 00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:58.200 has survived Open Cup after dark and can join us 12 00:00:58.200 --> 00:01:01.920 at ten o'clock. We've got a lot of reports and 13 00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:05.439 transfer ideas and numbers being thrown about. We'll get into 14 00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:08.560 that with our standard sources overseas, with Ben Jacobs and 15 00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:11.239 Kimmy Sports and Talk Sport and all that stuff. We'll 16 00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:14.959 get into that this morning in our number two, and 17 00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:17.280 we'll get you ready for all the other games going 18 00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:22.719 on in Major League Soccer tonight our number one. And 19 00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:31.120 I've warned Tyler about this that I might be a 20 00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:37.760 little hot this morning, and I mean it's probably understood 21 00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:43.280 on a couple of different levels why, and it has 22 00:01:43.359 --> 00:01:50.879 to do with yesterday and the news that came out 23 00:01:52.120 --> 00:02:00.680 that it appears that Tiaguamata is heading to that's Letico 24 00:02:00.719 --> 00:02:04.120 Demondrid fantastic, love it for him. 25 00:02:04.359 --> 00:02:05.040 I love this. 26 00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:11.560 So that news came out yesterday, and this probably is 27 00:02:11.599 --> 00:02:13.840 going to be a morning where I need to be 28 00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:17.840 talked to economically, like I'm a twelve year old. And 29 00:02:18.199 --> 00:02:23.719 because of this, we've reached out to some folks who 30 00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:26.639 are experts in their field and local. 31 00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:27.680 This is what I'm getting to. 32 00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:35.039 That I need to know, and I think it would 33 00:02:35.080 --> 00:02:40.080 be a beneficial conversation to have how folks are allowed 34 00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:43.599 to function the way that they function in today's soccer 35 00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:47.439 sphere as owners and so, like I said, we've reached 36 00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:49.800 out to some folks and hopefully we can have them 37 00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:54.599 on to discuss the economics of soccer and I have 38 00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:57.840 a legitimate conversation about it. It's not just something where 39 00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:01.879 you know, you bring somebody on, you vent your spleen, 40 00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:05.360 which might be a part of it, but to understand 41 00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:09.719 how folks are allowed to function and continue to function 42 00:03:10.039 --> 00:03:11.719 in this current atmosphere. 43 00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:12.879 Morning and Alex. 44 00:03:14.280 --> 00:03:17.719 So this morning leading up to that hopeful discussion that 45 00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:19.680 we will have at a later date with experts in 46 00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:24.840 the field. I want to I want to go through 47 00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:30.000 this entire process and I want to get us up 48 00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:33.120 to date as to where we are. And Tyler end 49 00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:35.960 up maybeing a bit of a sounding board just to 50 00:03:36.120 --> 00:03:39.520 make sure that my that my information is correct in 51 00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:45.520 all of this. So I guess our number one just 52 00:03:45.560 --> 00:03:49.159 may end up being an opening kickoff, and so we'll 53 00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:56.000 get it. We'll get into that morning KEVSI. So yesterday 54 00:03:56.199 --> 00:04:02.120 it was revealed that it peers, and like I said, 55 00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:04.800 this is all of all of the things that are 56 00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:07.879 that are that are working our way through. So yesterday 57 00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:15.039 it was revealed, says our Louis Marrilo at all and. 58 00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:18.439 It appears that. 59 00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:25.120 Jack Maramata is heading to Athletic Athletico Demadrid, and it 60 00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:27.959 looks like okay Nas might be heading to Pumas, Fidel Barajas, 61 00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:37.040 Achievas at Setaa. So yesterday Marilow comes out and he 62 00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:42.560 breaks down the numbers. We had numbers that were flying 63 00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:45.439 around all over the place. It's forty, it's this, it's 64 00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:49.079 this and all that. So the last piece of information 65 00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:52.079 that we had came out at like seven thirty last night, 66 00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:56.240 Eastern Time, says Our Louis Marrilo presented it like this, 67 00:04:56.879 --> 00:05:04.360 and this is translated. The club meaning Athletic Athleticie purchased 68 00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:10.680 fifty percent of the transfer rights from Leon for twenty 69 00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:13.879 one million euro plus five and add ons, so twenty 70 00:05:13.920 --> 00:05:19.879 six they purchased fifty percent of Tiago Almada the asset 71 00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:24.040 for twenty one plus five. They're signing him to a 72 00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:28.399 five year deal. I think twenty thirty. It might officially 73 00:05:28.439 --> 00:05:30.519 be a four, but it's a five, so they're defraying 74 00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:34.959 the cost over four or five years if they do 75 00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:36.160 not sell the player. 76 00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:37.240 This is from Marlow. 77 00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:40.439 If they do not sell the player within three years, 78 00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:46.000 who will sign until June of twenty thirty, they are obligated. 79 00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:47.759 So if they hang on to them through the end 80 00:05:47.759 --> 00:05:50.519 of the deal, they're obligated to acquire the other fifty 81 00:05:50.519 --> 00:05:52.839 percent from both to Fogo for ten million bucks ten 82 00:05:52.879 --> 00:05:56.120 million euros. And I apologize with my numbers. I have 83 00:05:56.199 --> 00:06:01.240 to double back occasionally and go pounds euros dollars. So 84 00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:06.240 the club purchases, meaning Athletic purchases fifty percent of the 85 00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:10.360 transfer rights from Leon for twenty one plus five. If 86 00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:12.480 they don't sell the player within three years who will 87 00:06:12.519 --> 00:06:13.839 sign until June twenty thirty. 88 00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:14.800 They are obligated to. 89 00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:16.800 Acquire the other fifty percent from Botha Fogo for ten 90 00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:22.040 million Europe. So that is what says Our Louis Marrilow 91 00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:28.759 reported last night at seven thirty. Now, going back to 92 00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:36.800 the information that we know, FIFA came out with a 93 00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:42.720 judgment against Eagle Football Holdings and I want to make 94 00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:47.120 sure that that wording is correct because the the machinations here. 95 00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:49.680 We have to really have to I'm not I'm going 96 00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:52.240 to try and walk through it but not get into 97 00:06:52.240 --> 00:06:54.160 the weeds on it, but it's something that we need 98 00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:58.560 to know. We need to have everything laid out. Okay, 99 00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:01.600 So Eagle Football, Egle Football Group, Eagle Football Holdings. So 100 00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:13.199 I found it interesting, among other things, that Eagle Football 101 00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:16.000 Holdings announced as leadership changes and they also filed for 102 00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:21.040 an IPO about a month ago according to Bloomberg. So 103 00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:35.120 you'll remember that FIFA issued a judgment on behalf of 104 00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:40.560 it Landy United where they agreed with it Landy United's 105 00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:46.560 position when it comes to Tiago Almada. You know, the 106 00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:53.920 whole idea of winning the summary judgment. However, you want 107 00:07:53.920 --> 00:08:02.319 to phrase it. So you end up with Atlanta's still 108 00:08:02.360 --> 00:08:08.439 not having been paid from this initial purchase of twenty 109 00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:15.680 one plus four involving Chiciago Almada and Eagle Football Holdings 110 00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:19.199 and all of that. So that's that's where that that's 111 00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:26.720 where we are on the initial complaint. FIFA ruled. 112 00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:28.759 That it was. 113 00:08:30.279 --> 00:08:34.440 Initially the initial complaint, FIFA ruled that Atlani United was 114 00:08:34.480 --> 00:08:41.399 owed ten then when the payment wasn't made, the ruling 115 00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:44.720 was Remember it was that two step payment where it 116 00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:48.000 was three million and three percent interest and then eighteen 117 00:08:48.039 --> 00:08:53.000 million and three percent interest over varying calendar lengths. One 118 00:08:53.120 --> 00:08:55.080 was nine months at three percent, the other was twelve 119 00:08:55.120 --> 00:08:56.960 months at three percent. I forget which one was which, 120 00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:05.919 but you end up is FIFA says Eagle Football Holdings 121 00:09:06.759 --> 00:09:10.200 oz it Landy United three million and three percent interest, 122 00:09:10.279 --> 00:09:15.240 eighteen million, three percent interest. Then the performance metrics were met, 123 00:09:15.320 --> 00:09:20.759 so that's another four million. So you're looking at twenty 124 00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:25.279 one million over two separate judgments awarded by FIFA and 125 00:09:25.559 --> 00:09:30.799 three percent interest, and then you end up with where 126 00:09:30.840 --> 00:09:37.080 you are right now. You end up with Eagle appealing, 127 00:09:37.360 --> 00:09:41.600 which is their right to do that that because of 128 00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:45.240 the political because of the the legal process involved in 129 00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:46.120 something like this. 130 00:09:47.960 --> 00:09:48.559 You are. 131 00:09:50.960 --> 00:09:53.440 You know it's it's I get it. You know you 132 00:09:53.600 --> 00:09:57.960 you're okay to appeal in this process. I get it, 133 00:09:58.399 --> 00:09:59.600 I get it. I get it. I get it. 134 00:09:59.639 --> 00:10:02.879 That's fine, perfectly fine. 135 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:11.519 So right now, all of the add ons three plus 136 00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:17.120 eighteen plus four and interest, that's a repeal that can't 137 00:10:17.120 --> 00:10:17.759 get touched. 138 00:10:19.480 --> 00:10:20.960 So you work from there. 139 00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:25.879 We know that it Land United has a sell on 140 00:10:26.080 --> 00:10:31.960 fee that is attached to the Thiago Almada transaction in 141 00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:38.879 the first place, so you're looking at that. So twenty 142 00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:44.279 one plus four plus interest, So three plus interest, eighteen 143 00:10:44.320 --> 00:10:49.440 plus interest, twenty one total plus interest over two separate transactions, 144 00:10:49.840 --> 00:10:55.080 add ons twenty five. If this goes through, we don't 145 00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:57.360 have we don't have Thiago holding up the jersey. We 146 00:10:57.399 --> 00:10:59.200 don't have him holding you know, we don't have him 147 00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:02.039 smiling over the contract with the pen over the top 148 00:11:02.080 --> 00:11:03.840 of it. And it depends not touching the contract. We 149 00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:07.919 don't have that photo yet. If that goes down, then 150 00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:13.000 Atlanta gets a sell on fee which I thought was 151 00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:14.600 in the neighborhood of twenty percent. I thought it was 152 00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:18.200 like fifteen to twenty percent. So you get another what 153 00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:22.720 So if it's twenty, it might be two, two or 154 00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:25.159 three or somewhere in there. Tyler's in the bullpen. He's waiting. 155 00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:27.320 So you are. 156 00:11:27.159 --> 00:11:32.960 Looking at a transaction on the whole in the neighborhood 157 00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:35.759 of thirty million dollars. Probably if you do the math 158 00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:38.600 once again, three plus three percent, eighteen plus three percent 159 00:11:38.919 --> 00:11:41.840 add ons four sell on more. 160 00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:49.679 That's where we are here. So if we get the photo. 161 00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:58.919 Of Tiago Almada doing this, you're looking at thirty million bucks. 162 00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:03.559 But because of the legal process being what it is, 163 00:12:03.840 --> 00:12:07.639 Eagle Football Holdings is entitled to appeal under what grounds? 164 00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:10.480 I have no idea, but they are entitled to appeal. 165 00:12:10.519 --> 00:12:13.799 That's where we are in this process. So I bring 166 00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:20.200 in Tyler. How in the blue hell is John Texter 167 00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:25.279 allowed to function as an owner with all of the 168 00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:30.399 things that he is doing, getting leone in trouble, getting 169 00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:34.440 Crystal Palace in trouble, whether competition or what have you, 170 00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:37.200 having to sell his Crystal Palace stake to Woody Johnson 171 00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:40.320 for two hundred and eighty nine million dollars. But I 172 00:12:40.399 --> 00:12:42.440 had thirty nine percent. But I didn't have you know, 173 00:12:42.559 --> 00:12:46.799 I had no undue influence wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Once again, 174 00:12:47.080 --> 00:12:49.320 we have no proof that he doesn't have undue influence 175 00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:51.200 for a double negative, and my mom would be driven 176 00:12:51.240 --> 00:12:54.879 crazy as an English major here. So we're talking about 177 00:12:54.879 --> 00:12:55.759 something under appeal. 178 00:12:55.799 --> 00:12:56.279 I get it. 179 00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:03.039 I'm still wondering how he is allowed to function as 180 00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:06.840 an owner.

This is a guy who wanted 195 00:13:59.679 --> 00:14:00.279 to and this. 196 00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:02.200 Is in the athletics. So if anybody wants to go back. 197 00:14:02.240 --> 00:14:04.039 And this has to do with the time of the sale. 198 00:14:04.120 --> 00:14:10.240 This is an entity who basically told the French version 199 00:14:10.240 --> 00:14:14.679 of the FA because the FA was there the DNCG 200 00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:16.120 for Alphabet suit. 201 00:14:17.559 --> 00:14:18.240 He tells the. 202 00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:20.960 DNCG, Hey, you know what, why don't I just slide 203 00:14:21.000 --> 00:14:23.320 some funds over from both to Fogo to cover up 204 00:14:23.399 --> 00:14:26.919 what's wrong here at Leon. He literally said that back. 205 00:14:27.000 --> 00:14:29.759 I think it was like in November. He's like, Okay, 206 00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:32.840 how about I do this. I'll take both to Fogo money, 207 00:14:32.879 --> 00:14:34.840 slide it over and that'll help out what's going on 208 00:14:34.919 --> 00:14:37.759 with the problems with Leon. The DNCG was like, nah, fam, 209 00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:41.120 that's not how this works, and so that's why you 210 00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:45.159 had the temporary relegation to Legdeux and all of that 211 00:14:45.279 --> 00:14:46.600 chaos going on here. 212 00:14:47.960 --> 00:14:49.039 I do not know. 213 00:14:50.559 --> 00:14:55.519 How anyone going forward would want to do any kind 214 00:14:55.559 --> 00:14:58.360 of business with John Texter. 215 00:14:59.159 --> 00:15:00.399 And here is the guy. 216 00:15:00.559 --> 00:15:04.519 The irony of this is the Texter with the two 217 00:15:04.679 --> 00:15:06.960 hundred and eighty nine million that he's getting from what 218 00:15:07.039 --> 00:15:09.080 he Johnson to take his thirty nine percent stake from 219 00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:15.120 Crystal Palace. He's interested in purchasing Sheffield Wednesday, whose owner 220 00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:19.879 dafon Chan Siri is well known in English circles for 221 00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:23.080 not paying bills, not paying his or is he united 222 00:15:23.159 --> 00:15:25.159 hang on just saying it's it's like chan Seri nomics 223 00:15:25.399 --> 00:15:28.960 it was. That's a phrase coined by Kien maguire. So 224 00:15:29.960 --> 00:15:33.679 Sheffield it's I have to get my Sheffield's correct here. 225 00:15:34.200 --> 00:15:35.360 I don't want to get I don't want to get 226 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.200 people eight, I don't want to get Yeah it was yeah. 227 00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:42.200 So Sheffield Wednesday is dafon Chan Siri. So daefon Chan 228 00:15:42.320 --> 00:15:46.240 Siri hasn't paid players like multiple occasions, he's been fined, 229 00:15:46.320 --> 00:15:48.600 He's had points doc from Sheffield Wednesday. 230 00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:50.559 So the irony that John. 231 00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:54.639 Texter wants to purchase Sheffield Wednesday from dafon Chen Siri 232 00:15:55.240 --> 00:15:58.879 is just amazing in the ether that he wants to 233 00:15:58.919 --> 00:16:03.519 do this. And Sheffield Windnesday is selling their new jersey 234 00:16:03.600 --> 00:16:05.360 for this year, their new shirt for. 235 00:16:05.399 --> 00:16:06.720 Seventy two bucks. 236 00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:11.000 Seventy two dollars for their new jersey and it hasn't 237 00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:12.039 changed a look. 238 00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:13.440 Except for maybe bigger stripes. 239 00:16:13.960 --> 00:16:17.240 West Promise selling theos for sixty, Bolton is selling theirs 240 00:16:17.279 --> 00:16:20.639 for sixty, Stoke is selling theirs for fifty five. But 241 00:16:20.720 --> 00:16:23.240 Dafon CHANCERI a guy that doesn't pay his bills and 242 00:16:23.320 --> 00:16:26.279 might be selling to John Texter who's not paying his bills. 243 00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:28.279 They want to charge his seventy two. 244 00:16:29.720 --> 00:16:32.799 Stalled apparently, is what we're saying on the takeover of 245 00:16:32.879 --> 00:16:35.559 Sheffield Wednesday by anybody away from dayfon Chancerie. 246 00:16:35.919 --> 00:16:41.039 How are we old? How are we literally? 247 00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:45.480 How can John Texter conduct any business as an owner? 248 00:16:46.279 --> 00:16:49.480 As my head is starting to hurt this morning over 249 00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:53.039 all of this discussion, and how a club, if things 250 00:16:53.159 --> 00:16:56.960 fall after appeals and signings and such, you could have 251 00:16:57.080 --> 00:16:59.679 a club that we cover on a fairly decent basis 252 00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:02.840 be searching for thirty million dollars by the end of 253 00:17:02.879 --> 00:17:03.840 the day. 254 00:17:04.599 --> 00:17:07.240 I think what you're gonna end up seeing happen is 255 00:17:09.640 --> 00:17:14.759 the sale is going to go through to Madrid. Right, 256 00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:21.519 it's Madrid, Right, I'm get Madrid. Yeah. And then at 257 00:17:21.559 --> 00:17:23.400 the end of the day, look, I mean if it's 258 00:17:23.480 --> 00:17:24.680 forty million euro. 259 00:17:24.640 --> 00:17:28.119 Fee appeal, yeah, appeal. 260 00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:30.799 Inevitably that I mean they're going to lose this appeal 261 00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:36.000 because it's stupid, And I think whatever the equivalent of 262 00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:37.720 a judge in this situation is going to look at 263 00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:43.839 it and say uh, y'all agreed to make the purchase 264 00:17:43.920 --> 00:17:48.160 of Thiago Amata for twenty one million plus add ons 265 00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:52.640 confirmed yesterday all those the add ons, the stipulations have 266 00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:55.279 been met, so they now owe twenty five million. Then 267 00:17:55.319 --> 00:18:00.440 you add in that the whatever the cell On fee is, 268 00:18:01.319 --> 00:18:03.920 you know, the the fee slash percentage which I think 269 00:18:03.960 --> 00:18:06.319 it's more of a fee than a percentage anyway. 270 00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:08.279 Fifteen or twenty percent something like four something. 271 00:18:08.359 --> 00:18:12.400 Yeah, but the the ultimately yeah, the thirty million mark 272 00:18:12.519 --> 00:18:19.720 is about where you're looking. So that forty million euros 273 00:18:20.079 --> 00:18:21.400 is just going to turn around and go straight to 274 00:18:21.400 --> 00:18:22.519 Atlanta or should go straight? 275 00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:22.960 Well? 276 00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:24.279 Should should? 277 00:18:24.279 --> 00:18:30.000 What's the other element of this is. 278 00:18:28.640 --> 00:18:30.680 Is it is? 279 00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:35.200 Is is Garth Lockerway slash Chris Henderson slash skating off 280 00:18:35.240 --> 00:18:37.799 singer slash Demetrius to stot to you? 281 00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:39.640 Uh are they are? 282 00:18:39.720 --> 00:18:39.880 They? 283 00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:42.519 Like number one, it's like you go wandering, You go 284 00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:48.799 wandering into the the the completely and totally just uh 285 00:18:48.960 --> 00:18:53.240 on the list pre cream colored office space with the 286 00:18:53.359 --> 00:18:57.400 with the window that slides and has the the the 287 00:18:57.440 --> 00:19:00.960 little carriage underneath of it. Whereas you have the sliding 288 00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:03.559 window and you've got the red light that says serving 289 00:19:03.640 --> 00:19:04.440 number whatever. 290 00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:07.200 You know, the four of them. 291 00:19:07.079 --> 00:19:08.640 Go walking, you know, do the four of them go 292 00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:12.279 walking into a room sit down? And those really uncomfortable 293 00:19:12.319 --> 00:19:16.400 metal chairs that have that are just plastic and plastic backing, 294 00:19:17.200 --> 00:19:20.079 and yes, serving number four? 295 00:19:20.680 --> 00:19:22.640 Is that number four four? 296 00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:23.240 You know? 297 00:19:23.319 --> 00:19:25.000 And then you go walking up to the window and 298 00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:27.359 then you have your business taken care of. That's the 299 00:19:27.400 --> 00:19:32.480 other question in this. Yeah, where are at Land United 300 00:19:32.559 --> 00:19:35.240 in the queue when it comes to dealing with Eagle 301 00:19:35.279 --> 00:19:36.440 Football holdings? 302 00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:37.119 Yeah? 303 00:19:37.400 --> 00:19:40.000 They are they serving number one? Are they the largest? 304 00:19:40.119 --> 00:19:42.000 Are they the largest debtor? And is that how it 305 00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:43.480 goes to the front of the line or is it 306 00:19:43.680 --> 00:19:46.240 chronological with the number of folks that he hasn't been 307 00:19:46.279 --> 00:19:48.640 doing business with that he's completed deals with. 308 00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:52.359 That's my biggest question in this. Yeah, Land United in 309 00:19:52.400 --> 00:19:52.880 the queue? 310 00:19:53.839 --> 00:19:57.319 Yeah, I think what's gonna end up happening is, you know, again, 311 00:19:57.359 --> 00:20:00.359 the sale will go through and then you're probably gonna 312 00:20:00.359 --> 00:20:03.799 see I would imagine at some point FIFA step in 313 00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:07.559 and say this is how it's gonna be, this is 314 00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:14.160 this is what the deal is. John Texter. You you suck, like, 315 00:20:14.559 --> 00:20:16.279 get your head screwed on straight. 316 00:20:16.839 --> 00:20:19.680 And today I feel. 317 00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:25.839 Like a jerk. Yeah, but no, I mean like they're 318 00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:27.640 gonna have to settle it out, figure it out, you know, 319 00:20:27.680 --> 00:20:30.039 and it may take even longer, you know, And that's 320 00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:32.720 how appeal processes and all that stuff work. I don't 321 00:20:32.720 --> 00:20:34.799 think you're going to see the end of this saga 322 00:20:35.039 --> 00:20:36.839 in the next three or four months. I think it's 323 00:20:36.880 --> 00:20:39.319 gonna be a little bit longer than that. But ultimately, 324 00:20:39.400 --> 00:20:43.880 I mean, he's gonna have to pay everybody that he 325 00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:47.480 owes and kind of figure it out because otherwise, like 326 00:20:48.400 --> 00:20:51.000 you've got a Stella. I don't know if you can 327 00:20:51.000 --> 00:20:52.039 hear Stella, Yeah. 328 00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:54.480 You hear Stella. Stella is not happy. Stelle is not 329 00:20:54.559 --> 00:20:55.880 even happy about John Texter. 330 00:20:56.079 --> 00:20:57.640 I know, she's like, this is some bull crap. I 331 00:20:57.640 --> 00:21:01.640 gotta get in there and say some stuff. But no, 332 00:21:01.759 --> 00:21:06.200 I mean you're gonna end up having him probably be 333 00:21:06.359 --> 00:21:08.440 pulled through the ringer when it's all said and done. 334 00:21:08.880 --> 00:21:11.960 As far as Almada is concerned. I mean, that's a 335 00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:14.799 big black eye because anytime you bring in a guy 336 00:21:14.880 --> 00:21:19.240 like Almada into the news, it's going to be, you know, 337 00:21:19.359 --> 00:21:21.440 front page of a lot of different outlets. I mean, 338 00:21:21.440 --> 00:21:22.759 I told I think I told you when I was 339 00:21:22.759 --> 00:21:26.799 in Portugal when the Benfica rumor was going on, I 340 00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:30.039 turned on the TV and it was Thiago Almada possibly 341 00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:32.960 to Minfica, and like it was a big thing. You 342 00:21:33.000 --> 00:21:36.200 bring in a player of his caliber, his quality, and 343 00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:40.680 naturally the spotlight's gonna be on whoever's dealing with him. 344 00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:43.200 And John Texter and the Eagle Football Group have been 345 00:21:43.200 --> 00:21:46.119 on nothing but the negative end of all that pr 346 00:21:46.200 --> 00:21:49.799 now for about what six months now, it seems like, 347 00:21:50.640 --> 00:21:53.680 and it's probably gonna go longer. I think it's ridiculous. 348 00:21:53.720 --> 00:21:56.960 But if FIFA can step in and make the Philadelphia 349 00:21:57.079 --> 00:22:03.519 Union pay seven dollars and a happy meal to a 350 00:22:03.640 --> 00:22:08.519 club in I think it was Columbia or Venezuela for 351 00:22:09.119 --> 00:22:11.480 just a little bit of money that they missed because 352 00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:14.759 somebody forgotten to like, I don't know, get a stamp, 353 00:22:14.920 --> 00:22:18.359 put it yeah, something like get yeah exactly. They can 354 00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:21.599 step in and keep Philly from, you know, essentially doing 355 00:22:21.640 --> 00:22:24.200 any kind of transfers until they paid this seven dollars 356 00:22:24.279 --> 00:22:27.079 and in a happy meal. They can step in for thirty 357 00:22:27.119 --> 00:22:30.359 million plus, and they they better step in for thirty 358 00:22:30.400 --> 00:22:32.240 million plus. That's insane. 359 00:22:32.319 --> 00:22:35.240 But I mean they technically already have with the three 360 00:22:35.240 --> 00:22:37.799 plus three percent and the eighteen plus three percent. But 361 00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:40.759 because of due process in this and like I said, 362 00:22:40.759 --> 00:22:43.359 I would love to know what the due process is 363 00:22:44.119 --> 00:22:47.680 for the appeal for Eagle over the initial twenty one 364 00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:50.920 over two separate transactions and three percent interest. I'd love 365 00:22:50.920 --> 00:22:52.920 to know what the idea on the original appeal is. 366 00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:54.640 I don't want to read what the grounds for the 367 00:22:54.680 --> 00:22:56.440 appeal was, Like what is your reasoning? 368 00:22:56.880 --> 00:23:01.960 Yeah, and that's yeah, it's so so that it's I 369 00:23:02.359 --> 00:23:05.400 you know, with all of this stuff going on, I mean, 370 00:23:05.759 --> 00:23:10.160 we can we can separate Thiago Amada going to Athletic, 371 00:23:10.200 --> 00:23:11.880 which is fantastic. 372 00:23:12.200 --> 00:23:13.640 Yeah, do not mis. 373 00:23:13.680 --> 00:23:19.799 Understand this under any auspice or circumstance. Thiago Almada going 374 00:23:19.920 --> 00:23:25.680 from Atlanta United to both the Fogo to Leon under 375 00:23:25.680 --> 00:23:31.039 the Eagle umbrella, now to Atletico Madrid. Are you blanking 376 00:23:31.160 --> 00:23:37.720 kidding me? That's fantastic. Yeah, but it's politics involved. 377 00:23:38.119 --> 00:23:39.960 Yeah, that's the thing is, like it can never just 378 00:23:39.960 --> 00:23:42.200 be something simple. I feel bad for Thiago because it's like, 379 00:23:43.079 --> 00:23:46.039 you just wanted to go to Europe and play football. Yeah, 380 00:23:46.200 --> 00:23:51.599 it's been the most roundabout through mordor way to get 381 00:23:51.599 --> 00:23:55.000 to Europe and play soccer, and he's done it valiantly, 382 00:23:55.079 --> 00:23:58.039 like he he as a person and a player, has 383 00:23:58.039 --> 00:24:00.440 done nothing but just go ball. And I think that's 384 00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:05.240 great for him. And it's just it's frustrating. It has 385 00:24:05.240 --> 00:24:08.079 to be the you know, not the source of but 386 00:24:09.079 --> 00:24:11.240 in a way partially the victim of all the bull 387 00:24:11.279 --> 00:24:13.400 crap that's had to go on to get him there. 388 00:24:13.440 --> 00:24:18.039 And I mean, yeah, look, if you made a mistake 389 00:24:18.079 --> 00:24:22.440 with your books, you just got to own up and 390 00:24:22.440 --> 00:24:24.279 do it. And I feel like this appeal process is 391 00:24:24.640 --> 00:24:28.000 genuinely just a stalling tactic to figure out the books 392 00:24:28.039 --> 00:24:29.920 and get the right so that he can then go 393 00:24:30.039 --> 00:24:32.839 and and do the right thing. I don't think the 394 00:24:32.839 --> 00:24:38.839 guy's being like genuinely malicious. I think he's just his 395 00:24:38.839 --> 00:24:44.079 accountant got a little little handsy and screwed something up 396 00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:45.720 and now that he's trying to fix it. 397 00:24:46.720 --> 00:24:50.000 And I mean it is yeah, like I said, and 398 00:24:50.359 --> 00:24:54.519 I'm chasing, I'm trying to find and it's never readily available. 399 00:24:54.599 --> 00:24:56.880 But I mean if you do, if you do the 400 00:24:56.920 --> 00:25:00.839 following search, if you do like a John Exter search 401 00:25:01.640 --> 00:25:05.200 on the Google machine, here's what you here's what you 402 00:25:05.279 --> 00:25:09.319 come up with.

Then we have folks on YouTube are sitting 405 00:25:16.079 --> 00:25:18.400 there saying he shouldn't own anything else. Leon owner John 406 00:25:18.400 --> 00:25:21.480 Texter to reduce roll after relegation. June twenty eight. John 407 00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:24.680 Texter issues parting dig as he explains decision to sell 408 00:25:24.720 --> 00:25:28.839 Crystal Palace June twenty third asset class Texter soccer saga 409 00:25:29.119 --> 00:25:34.759 from our friends at Front Office. And so here's July tenth. 410 00:25:35.559 --> 00:25:39.240 July tenth, this is a week ago. Texter sues investors 411 00:25:39.279 --> 00:25:42.880 after they sue him over a failed billion dollar soccer merger. 412 00:25:43.880 --> 00:25:46.640 John Texter claims to investors with dubious ties to Russian 413 00:25:46.680 --> 00:25:47.960 Oligark's bamboozled. 414 00:25:47.960 --> 00:25:49.440 This is Front Office Sports. 415 00:25:49.440 --> 00:25:52.960 Bamboozled him into signing a complicated financing deal that was 416 00:25:53.000 --> 00:25:55.200 meant to take at Soccer Empire Public And this is 417 00:25:55.200 --> 00:25:57.920 what we were talking about with the IPO that was 418 00:25:58.279 --> 00:26:03.240 proposed to Bloomberg Tech. Exter sued James Dining and Alexander 419 00:26:03.279 --> 00:26:07.240 Canaster and their company Iconic Sports Eagle Investment in a 420 00:26:07.279 --> 00:26:08.359 Florida federal lawsuit. 421 00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:10.240 July four Happy Birthday America. 422 00:26:10.640 --> 00:26:13.519 Dinan's the founder of hedge fund York Capital Management, part 423 00:26:13.519 --> 00:26:17.319 owner of the Bucks. Canaster owns Pamplona Capital Management. Texture 424 00:26:17.319 --> 00:26:20.240 suit claims he was defrauded by way of a complex 425 00:26:20.279 --> 00:26:23.119 financing arrangement tied to an ill fated go public deal 426 00:26:23.400 --> 00:26:26.319 for Eagle Football Holdings Limited DA. 427 00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:29.640 You didn't read the fine print, read. 428 00:26:29.480 --> 00:26:31.000 The document before you sign it. 429 00:26:31.200 --> 00:26:33.599 How many times have we seen that rese According to Texter, 430 00:26:33.720 --> 00:26:35.759 the deal was destined to fail because Canaster and other 431 00:26:35.920 --> 00:26:39.359 investors in Iconic had close financial ties with Russian individuals 432 00:26:39.359 --> 00:26:42.279 and assets that were the subject of international sanctions. However, 433 00:26:42.319 --> 00:26:45.039 his suit was filed after Iconic sued Texter in the 434 00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:49.000 UK July third, alleging Texters failed to pay up under 435 00:26:49.000 --> 00:26:52.400 a put option tied to a special purpose acquisition company 436 00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:55.640 or a spack merger meant to take Eagle Football Holding 437 00:26:56.000 --> 00:26:59.799 public at one point two billion EVAIL under the put option, 438 00:27:00.200 --> 00:27:02.599 which could be triggered if the spack merger was not 439 00:27:02.599 --> 00:27:05.599 completed by a certain day. Iconic paid a pound for 440 00:27:05.640 --> 00:27:08.400 the right to compel Texter to buy back their seventy 441 00:27:08.400 --> 00:27:11.559 five million dollar stake in Eagle Football for that cost 442 00:27:11.839 --> 00:27:14.839 plus annual interest. As of today, the total cost when 443 00:27:14.839 --> 00:27:17.039 including interest is a little under ninety four million dollars 444 00:27:17.119 --> 00:27:19.880 according to the suit. And then you get reports from 445 00:27:19.960 --> 00:27:24.519 Russia in twenty two about Canaster Iconic suit. Spokesperson for 446 00:27:24.799 --> 00:27:27.359 Iconic sid in the emailed statement, Texter suit represents an 447 00:27:27.359 --> 00:27:30.559 attempt to delay and frustrate ongoing legal proceedings in the 448 00:27:30.599 --> 00:27:33.839 recovery of the debt obligation, and that John Texter now 449 00:27:33.839 --> 00:27:37.319 appears to be resorting to fictional and easily disprovable claims 450 00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:40.759 against Iconic Sports and its directors end quote. He's still 451 00:27:40.759 --> 00:27:43.200 trying to take Eagle Football Holding public, by the way, 452 00:27:43.400 --> 00:27:47.559 once again making that IPO filing with the sec meaning 453 00:27:47.880 --> 00:27:51.000 not Greig Sankee's sec but the Securities in Exchange Commission. 454 00:27:51.640 --> 00:27:55.079 So it seems that it seems that John Law might 455 00:27:55.079 --> 00:27:56.880 be chasing John Texter, if you know what I mean. 456 00:27:57.200 --> 00:27:59.920 Yeah, just a little bit. They need to watch on 457 00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:03.680 John FIFA before John FIFA decides to make John Texter 458 00:28:04.480 --> 00:28:06.839 disappear for all the money that is now owed involving 459 00:28:07.000 --> 00:28:13.359 soccer related activities. I mean, I mean, it's a little ridiculous. 460 00:28:13.400 --> 00:28:19.839 It's I mean, you know, it's embarrassing. But again, I 461 00:28:19.839 --> 00:28:24.119 I don't blame Texture and the Eagle Football group for 462 00:28:24.160 --> 00:28:26.480 trying to stall. I mean I would do the same thing. 463 00:28:26.920 --> 00:28:28.039 You know, give me a little bit of time to 464 00:28:28.039 --> 00:28:29.960 make up some money. Like you have a team that 465 00:28:30.079 --> 00:28:32.880 just won lots of things, a couple of teams that 466 00:28:32.960 --> 00:28:34.480 just won lots of things, Like it's not like the 467 00:28:34.519 --> 00:28:38.480 teams are terrible that he owns, And that's what's wild 468 00:28:38.559 --> 00:28:42.160 to me. Like there has to be some revenue streams 469 00:28:42.160 --> 00:28:45.839 that you can take advantage of somewhere involving Botafogo and Leon, 470 00:28:45.960 --> 00:28:48.240 I mean in Crystal Palace for that matter. Like I 471 00:28:48.359 --> 00:28:51.759 understand Crystal Palace is just kind of like a you know, 472 00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:54.279 a mid table to low table, like. 473 00:28:55.400 --> 00:28:56.079 Happy to be there. 474 00:28:56.240 --> 00:28:58.720 They're happy to be there, but but they're there, and 475 00:28:58.759 --> 00:29:05.200 they're there consistently. There's gotta be some like significant, especially 476 00:29:05.240 --> 00:29:09.559 in Brazil, revenue streams that you could take advantage of 477 00:29:09.599 --> 00:29:11.119 that I feel like they're not taking advantage of. 478 00:29:12.240 --> 00:29:15.640 UH twenty sixth February twenty twenty five decision of the 479 00:29:15.680 --> 00:29:19.559 Player's Status Chamber regarding a contractual dispute concerning the player 480 00:29:19.640 --> 00:29:24.920 Thiago Ezekiel Almada by Javier Vijande Pignas Argentina claimant Atlanta 481 00:29:24.960 --> 00:29:28.160 and I a fc USA respondent saf but the Fogo 482 00:29:28.240 --> 00:29:33.119 Comap Brazil facts of the case were presented and it 483 00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:35.759 is a document. So here what i'll what I will 484 00:29:35.759 --> 00:29:38.319 do is public service and it is a fifteen page 485 00:29:38.319 --> 00:29:41.240 document for public. Let me hang on, hang on, I'll 486 00:29:41.279 --> 00:29:43.640 post I'll post the link here in the in the chat, 487 00:29:44.200 --> 00:29:46.079 and so we might be reading some of the greatest 488 00:29:46.160 --> 00:29:48.759 hits here this morning, just just so folks can understand. 489 00:29:49.240 --> 00:29:52.039 So there there is your there is your link to 490 00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:58.519 the ALMADA documents. And uh does the claimant have standing 491 00:29:58.559 --> 00:30:02.400 to sue? Regarding the claimants standing to sue? Single Judge 492 00:30:02.440 --> 00:30:04.680 considered the claimant's arguments in favor of its standing to 493 00:30:04.720 --> 00:30:09.839 be persuasive. Single Judge concluded that, indeed, the claimant has 494 00:30:09.839 --> 00:30:12.599 standing to bring the present claim before FIFA. What is 495 00:30:12.640 --> 00:30:16.519 the amount owed by the respondent? Turning to the amounts claimed, 496 00:30:16.920 --> 00:30:19.079 the single judge pointed out that the parties do not 497 00:30:19.119 --> 00:30:21.839 dispute that the respondent failed to pay to the claimant 498 00:30:21.839 --> 00:30:25.079 the first two of ten installments of the transfer fee 499 00:30:25.599 --> 00:30:28.559 arising from the transfer agreement within their due dates, and 500 00:30:28.599 --> 00:30:32.880 they indeed remained outstanding. Nonetheless, the single judge remarked that 501 00:30:32.920 --> 00:30:38.000 the respondent disputes that the acceleration clause was unambiguous in 502 00:30:38.039 --> 00:30:40.519 awarding the entire remaining balance of the transfer fee, and 503 00:30:40.519 --> 00:30:44.519 therefore should be interpreted against the claimant in so far 504 00:30:44.599 --> 00:30:47.000 as only the first unpaid first two installments are owed 505 00:30:47.039 --> 00:30:50.559 as a consequence of non payment. So, if I'm understanding 506 00:30:50.599 --> 00:30:56.279 this correctly, there were ten I think windows that had 507 00:30:56.279 --> 00:31:00.519 to be hit. So they hit the first two and 508 00:31:00.559 --> 00:31:03.000 then they missed, and so then you miss and then 509 00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:04.920 that means that the other eight kick in, I think, 510 00:31:05.000 --> 00:31:10.279 if I'm reading this correctly, yeah, So page nine, Element 511 00:31:10.359 --> 00:31:13.759 forty six. Single Judge wished to mention that it would 512 00:31:13.799 --> 00:31:16.279 be an unreasonable reading of the clause to interpret the 513 00:31:16.279 --> 00:31:18.519 provision to mean that in the event of an installment 514 00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:20.759 being overdue for thirty days, that respective amount was now 515 00:31:20.799 --> 00:31:24.599 due immediately without notice, as the amount was already due. 516 00:31:24.680 --> 00:31:27.319 The single judge found that the language the total amount 517 00:31:27.359 --> 00:31:30.720 of such payment shall be immediately become due is sufficiently 518 00:31:30.839 --> 00:31:34.160 clear to establish that the total amount of the transfer 519 00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:36.799 fee was accelerated upon non payment for thirty days of 520 00:31:36.799 --> 00:31:41.319 any installment. Hence, Section forty seven and in accordance with 521 00:31:41.400 --> 00:31:45.279 the principle pacta sunt servanda packed having been served. That's 522 00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:48.400 Latin folks, two years of Latin high school and college. 523 00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:51.640 The Single Judge decided to award the claimant the full 524 00:31:51.680 --> 00:31:54.519 transfer fee in the amount of the USD twenty one million, 525 00:31:54.720 --> 00:31:57.880 net of any taxes or any other deductions. Regarding interest, 526 00:31:58.319 --> 00:32:01.519 the Single Judge noted that the claimant that the interest 527 00:32:01.680 --> 00:32:06.000 shall accrue as from twenty two July of last year, 528 00:32:07.119 --> 00:32:10.000 which it stated reflected the date of the invoice sent 529 00:32:10.079 --> 00:32:16.000 by Major League Soccer for the first installment, first intelallment 530 00:32:16.079 --> 00:32:16.960 three million. 531 00:32:18.759 --> 00:32:24.720 Bits of the regulatingly, oh yeah, interestingly. Yeah, I mean 532 00:32:24.839 --> 00:32:26.160 you were kind of you were hitting on it, but 533 00:32:26.200 --> 00:32:30.319 like so, yeah, it has like an acceleration clause. Yeah, 534 00:32:30.359 --> 00:32:33.799 so if you miss the payments, yeah, for thirty days, 535 00:32:33.799 --> 00:32:37.720 then you owe everything. The fact that they were trying 536 00:32:37.759 --> 00:32:40.119 to say that Atlanta United can't sue us because they 537 00:32:40.119 --> 00:32:42.039 weren't the ones that signed the contract is kind of 538 00:32:42.039 --> 00:32:42.559 wild to me. 539 00:32:43.200 --> 00:32:43.400 Yeah. 540 00:32:43.440 --> 00:32:48.000 I think I think that they're the the legality in 541 00:32:48.440 --> 00:32:54.559 that with MLS being an umbrella entity. Yeah, you're pursuing 542 00:32:54.759 --> 00:32:58.400 the the legal language of well, they can't sue us 543 00:32:58.559 --> 00:33:02.880 MLS would have to sue, right. Thiago Almatta technically is 544 00:33:02.920 --> 00:33:06.839 a player of Major League Soccer and Atlanta United is 545 00:33:06.839 --> 00:33:10.480 like a sub licensee or is a franchisee of So, 546 00:33:10.680 --> 00:33:14.480 like if if you owned your what's your favorite fast 547 00:33:14.480 --> 00:33:15.000 food joint? 548 00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:17.039 I mean I was, I knew where you were going, 549 00:33:17.079 --> 00:33:19.839 and my first thought was McDonald's, even though I hate McDonald's. 550 00:33:19.839 --> 00:33:25.000 But yeah, So like if you owned a McDonald's and 551 00:33:26.240 --> 00:33:29.640 you know, dude forgot, you know, dude didn't pay a bill, 552 00:33:30.839 --> 00:33:33.799 and it's like, so he ordered a happy Meal, goes 553 00:33:33.839 --> 00:33:39.640 into Tyler Pilgrim's licensed McDonald's. Somebody wanders in, it's like, yeah, 554 00:33:39.640 --> 00:33:41.559 I want a Happy Meal, and it's like okay, yeah, 555 00:33:41.599 --> 00:33:45.079 yeah yeah. And then you take the happy Meal and 556 00:33:45.119 --> 00:33:47.440 you haven't you haven't key carted the. 557 00:33:47.400 --> 00:33:48.799 Payment, and you just run out the door. 558 00:33:48.920 --> 00:33:51.640 Basically, let's say, for the sake of example an argument, 559 00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:55.279 So you take the happy Meal, you leave Tyler Pilgrims. 560 00:33:55.359 --> 00:33:59.799 McDonald's tries to go and sue the guy for taking 561 00:33:59.839 --> 00:34:03.160 the Happy Meal away from the store. The guy in 562 00:34:03.200 --> 00:34:06.400 return says, no, you can't sue me. McDonald's has to 563 00:34:06.519 --> 00:34:09.559 sume me for me taking the meal out of the 564 00:34:09.599 --> 00:34:13.440 store and enjoying the meal. I think that's the language 565 00:34:13.440 --> 00:34:17.079 that we're staring at here from Eagle to the FIFA 566 00:34:17.199 --> 00:34:20.960 judgment back in February. And that now means that we've 567 00:34:20.960 --> 00:34:25.360 had yet another quarter of a calendar pass us by 568 00:34:26.119 --> 00:34:28.760 to a crew. I would I would guess even more 569 00:34:28.880 --> 00:34:32.360 interest in this. So the decision of the player's status chamber. 570 00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:34.559 It looks like five percent three so. 571 00:34:34.559 --> 00:34:36.800 All right, So it's so it's five percent instead of 572 00:34:36.840 --> 00:34:37.679 three Okay, so it. 573 00:34:37.639 --> 00:34:39.280 Was two annual interest? 574 00:34:39.480 --> 00:34:41.119 Yes, so yeah, per ANMPA. 575 00:34:41.599 --> 00:34:44.760 So the claimant is partially accepted the claim of the 576 00:34:44.760 --> 00:34:48.599 claimant as opposed to the defendant. The defendant the respondent 577 00:34:48.719 --> 00:34:51.280 Botafogo must pay to the claimant. Like I said, This 578 00:34:51.360 --> 00:34:54.880 is page thirteen of this document released late February. Three 579 00:34:54.960 --> 00:34:57.880 million net of any taxes is an outstanding remuneration plus 580 00:34:57.920 --> 00:35:01.320 five percent interest per annum as of twenty two July 581 00:35:01.559 --> 00:35:02.880 until the date of effective payment. 582 00:35:02.920 --> 00:35:03.679 Then the other. 583 00:35:03.599 --> 00:35:06.960 Eighteen so it's I'm guessing it's like two and then 584 00:35:07.039 --> 00:35:11.000 eight of the ten of the ten sections, eighteen million 585 00:35:11.000 --> 00:35:13.320 out of any taxes or any other deductions is outstanding 586 00:35:13.320 --> 00:35:16.320 remuneration plus five percent interest per annum as from August 587 00:35:16.400 --> 00:35:18.760 thirty of last year until the date of the effective 588 00:35:18.760 --> 00:35:22.559 payment any further any any further claims of the claimant 589 00:35:22.559 --> 00:35:26.679 are rejected. A fine in the amount of US one 590 00:35:26.760 --> 00:35:29.480 hundred and fifty thousand dollars imposed on the respondent, which 591 00:35:29.559 --> 00:35:31.159 must be paid to FIFA within thirty days of the 592 00:35:31.239 --> 00:35:32.800 notification of the decision. 593 00:35:32.840 --> 00:35:34.960 We don't know if that happened, but. 594 00:35:34.960 --> 00:35:38.239 It's good to know where you can send money to 595 00:35:38.800 --> 00:35:42.440 FIFA if you want to. To a UBS and Zurich, 596 00:35:43.440 --> 00:35:46.400 full payment shall be made to the bank account indicated 597 00:35:46.440 --> 00:35:51.920 in the enclosed bank Account registration form and if pursue 598 00:35:51.920 --> 00:35:54.760 it to Article twenty four, full payment is not made 599 00:35:54.760 --> 00:35:58.719 within forty five days, so that would have been into February, 600 00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:03.320 so mid April. Respondent shall be banned from registering any 601 00:36:03.360 --> 00:36:07.000 new players, either nationally or internationally, up until the due 602 00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:11.360 amount is paid. So you're in a transfer band technically 603 00:36:11.400 --> 00:36:14.800 for Leon right now. But you see text texture disposes 604 00:36:14.840 --> 00:36:18.519 of crystal palace, so they're absolved. And so now whatever 605 00:36:18.559 --> 00:36:20.760 he has left in the plate, both the foego you 606 00:36:20.800 --> 00:36:24.880 think you think fans are mad. You look both the 607 00:36:24.920 --> 00:36:28.880 foego in a transfer ban. You think the fans will 608 00:36:28.920 --> 00:36:30.599 be mad about that. I think they would be just 609 00:36:30.639 --> 00:36:33.000 a bit, just a little bit. Maximum duration of the 610 00:36:33.039 --> 00:36:36.159 band shall be of up to three entire and consecutive windows, 611 00:36:36.239 --> 00:36:38.320 So basically you've got three windows to sit there and 612 00:36:38.320 --> 00:36:41.480 go yes, no, yeah, yes, yes yes. Present matters shall 613 00:36:41.519 --> 00:36:43.880 be submitted upon request to the Disciplinary Committee and they've 614 00:36:43.880 --> 00:36:45.400 got the full payment is still not made by the 615 00:36:45.519 --> 00:36:48.880 end of three entire and consecutive registration period, so if 616 00:36:48.920 --> 00:36:49.840 we go through. 617 00:36:51.280 --> 00:36:55.519 Summer window, Christmas window. 618 00:36:55.960 --> 00:36:59.239 Summer windows, so then if the full amount is not 619 00:36:59.519 --> 00:37:06.880 paid by next summer, it goes to the disco. So 620 00:37:07.519 --> 00:37:10.679 now if I think that's where we are, final costs 621 00:37:10.679 --> 00:37:12.639 of the proceedings, the amount of twenty five thousand are 622 00:37:12.679 --> 00:37:16.519 to be paid by the respondent to FIFA, So so 623 00:37:16.679 --> 00:37:19.199 you got to keep an eye on Eagle until next summer. 624 00:37:20.400 --> 00:37:22.000 If you're a both a Fogo fan, you're in a 625 00:37:22.039 --> 00:37:25.840 transfer embargo until the twenty one million plus five percent 626 00:37:26.039 --> 00:37:27.039 pro rated is paid. 627 00:37:27.440 --> 00:37:28.440 And what did you find? 628 00:37:28.559 --> 00:37:32.440 Sorry, I was ridden, You're good. This kind of goes 629 00:37:32.519 --> 00:37:36.280 to what Lokeville was saying about US law. The party 630 00:37:36.280 --> 00:37:39.360 that drafted the agreement doesn't get to argue ambiguous language. 631 00:37:39.400 --> 00:37:44.360 I found the assignment clause and it's pretty straightforward. It 632 00:37:44.480 --> 00:37:48.159 says it is further acknowledged and agreed by both the 633 00:37:48.199 --> 00:37:51.440 Fogo that in addition to MLS, here we go, the 634 00:37:51.599 --> 00:37:54.599 MLS team shall have the right and standing to enforce 635 00:37:54.639 --> 00:37:56.920 the terms of this agreement for and on behalf of 636 00:37:57.000 --> 00:38:00.960 MLS and itself, including, but without limitation, enforcing the terms 637 00:38:01.000 --> 00:38:04.000 of this agreement against Botafogo and any proceedings commenced before 638 00:38:04.039 --> 00:38:07.039 any competent body, including FIFA, in the Court of Arbitration 639 00:38:07.159 --> 00:38:10.440 for Sport. So that right there, with what you were 640 00:38:10.440 --> 00:38:13.199 saying about the McDonald's analogy, that right there tells you, like, no, 641 00:38:13.719 --> 00:38:18.239 it's pretty straightforward. Atlanta has the right to if they want, yeah, 642 00:38:18.960 --> 00:38:21.480 and and that and the thing is like that clause. 643 00:38:21.599 --> 00:38:28.360 I'm pretty sure MLS their lawyers probably tell any club 644 00:38:28.400 --> 00:38:31.800 in any transfer agreement, you have to include this to 645 00:38:31.920 --> 00:38:34.199 cover yourself because of what you thought about. But I 646 00:38:34.239 --> 00:38:37.559 mean that that right there tells you all you need 647 00:38:37.599 --> 00:38:40.199 to know their base if that's their basis for the appeal, 648 00:38:40.320 --> 00:38:42.320 which I'm assuming it is because that's what they argued 649 00:38:42.320 --> 00:38:45.440 in the first place. That the again, it's just a 650 00:38:45.480 --> 00:38:49.239 stalling tactic. This is just their way of biding their time, 651 00:38:49.280 --> 00:38:50.840 trying to make a little bit more money to even 652 00:38:50.880 --> 00:38:52.199 out the books and do what they gotta do. 653 00:38:52.360 --> 00:38:55.159 Yeah, and so that way, you know, Leon is not 654 00:38:55.280 --> 00:39:01.159 in violation of PSR Profit and Sustainability or FFP, financial 655 00:39:01.159 --> 00:39:03.440 fair play or choice see all of the above. But 656 00:39:04.000 --> 00:39:09.000 so now I'm imagining and like I said, Like I said, 657 00:39:09.039 --> 00:39:13.239 We've reached out to folks that are experts in this field, 658 00:39:13.320 --> 00:39:15.599 and I'm hoping that we can have them on next 659 00:39:15.639 --> 00:39:19.800 week to break down owners and how they're allowed to 660 00:39:19.840 --> 00:39:22.559 function continually. You've got Die Young at Reading, You've got 661 00:39:22.679 --> 00:39:25.800 Davon Chan Siri at Sheffield Wednesday, and Ketsi did make 662 00:39:25.800 --> 00:39:32.079 the point accurately that is Sheffield today and elements like that, 663 00:39:32.639 --> 00:39:36.239 how they're allowed to continue to function and basically try 664 00:39:36.280 --> 00:39:38.440 to spin one thing off to the other or just 665 00:39:38.519 --> 00:39:41.159 ignore the process entirely and not pay your players and 666 00:39:41.159 --> 00:39:43.119 not do all this kind of stuff. So I'm trying 667 00:39:43.159 --> 00:39:45.760 to find one expert in particular I've reached out to. 668 00:39:46.039 --> 00:39:47.480 I want to try to have them on the show 669 00:39:47.559 --> 00:39:50.760 next week to break down all of this stuff. But 670 00:39:50.920 --> 00:39:55.519 this appears that it is a stalling tactic of some degree, 671 00:39:55.599 --> 00:39:57.800 and because there were initial numbers out there that was 672 00:39:57.800 --> 00:39:59.320 going to say it was forty and all this kind 673 00:39:59.320 --> 00:40:00.960 of stuff. And I know that Atlanta United fans were 674 00:40:00.960 --> 00:40:03.159 sitting there going, oh, they're gonna get paid once again. 675 00:40:03.199 --> 00:40:05.159 We don't know where it sadly, we don't know where 676 00:40:05.159 --> 00:40:09.119 the queue is. We don't know who is who is 677 00:40:09.159 --> 00:40:11.679 in the queue, and where Atlanta United and A and 678 00:40:11.760 --> 00:40:15.800 B s C is in this discussion, despite what FIFA 679 00:40:15.880 --> 00:40:20.440 has awarded late February, and despite you know, Judge Hatchett 680 00:40:20.480 --> 00:40:23.719 waiting for the two parties to come wandering into the 681 00:40:23.760 --> 00:40:28.000 courtroom for another episode of of you know, Judge Judy 682 00:40:28.079 --> 00:40:28.599 or what have you. 683 00:40:29.079 --> 00:40:31.760 They're gonna get paid. It's just a matter of when 684 00:40:32.400 --> 00:40:33.039 we do. 685 00:40:33.119 --> 00:40:33.639 We know this. 686 00:40:34.679 --> 00:40:37.360 I feel like what And I don't have any basis 687 00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:40.440 for this. This is just common sense. And Tyler Pilgrim said, 688 00:40:40.440 --> 00:40:43.360 this is what I think happens. I think if he 689 00:40:43.400 --> 00:40:46.679 does kind of default on this whole situation, all of it. 690 00:40:46.800 --> 00:40:54.440 FIFA essentially makes makes the money situation happen because they 691 00:40:54.440 --> 00:40:56.880 are such a massive organization and you do want to 692 00:40:56.960 --> 00:41:00.119 keep the ones who have done right happy and and 693 00:41:00.159 --> 00:41:04.360 they go after Eagle slash text or slash whatever in 694 00:41:04.440 --> 00:41:06.360 another another venue. 695 00:41:06.639 --> 00:41:09.119 And do you I mean, like I said, this is 696 00:41:09.199 --> 00:41:11.079 me spitballing law and order here and I feel like 697 00:41:11.119 --> 00:41:13.079 I need the drop to time. 698 00:41:13.360 --> 00:41:15.880 Yeah, basically, do you does it? 699 00:41:16.039 --> 00:41:18.639 You know, does it get to the point to where 700 00:41:19.599 --> 00:41:26.400 the money that was allegedly spent by Woody Johnson to 701 00:41:26.719 --> 00:41:29.880 John Texter does that come into play here? Can you 702 00:41:29.960 --> 00:41:34.760 do that kind of an intercept if you are the FA, 703 00:41:34.960 --> 00:41:35.840 if you are. 704 00:41:36.039 --> 00:41:37.480 You know whomever FIFA. 705 00:41:37.880 --> 00:41:39.800 But that's the thing, It's like you're dealing You're dealing 706 00:41:39.800 --> 00:41:44.159 with multiple bodies here where Woody Johnson just as the example, 707 00:41:44.400 --> 00:41:48.119 Woody Johnson buys the thirty nine percent share of Crystal 708 00:41:48.199 --> 00:41:49.159 Palace from Eagle? 709 00:41:50.119 --> 00:41:52.679 Is that an FA deal? Or is that a FIFA deal? 710 00:41:53.719 --> 00:41:56.079 And then do you sit there and do you go, 711 00:41:56.440 --> 00:41:59.519 you know where where in the courts does this go? 712 00:41:59.639 --> 00:42:02.039 What I love the grocery store we're talking about here? 713 00:42:02.159 --> 00:42:02.639 Do we go? 714 00:42:02.800 --> 00:42:06.119 Do we go where lawsuits or a pleasure? And then 715 00:42:06.199 --> 00:42:09.480 figure this whole thing out. It's like who's who's in 716 00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:13.440 the right uh, you know, who is who's in the 717 00:42:13.440 --> 00:42:15.400 the right lane of traffic? 718 00:42:15.480 --> 00:42:15.800 Here? 719 00:42:16.360 --> 00:42:20.280 To make sure that this thirty million dollars by the 720 00:42:20.320 --> 00:42:24.559 time it gets sorted, perhaps gets figured out who's who's lane? 721 00:42:24.599 --> 00:42:25.920 Who's lane? Are we in here? 722 00:42:26.000 --> 00:42:29.920 Well, if if this were in again from a massive 723 00:42:30.079 --> 00:42:35.039 organization slash sporting standpoint involving you know, multiple organizations, I 724 00:42:35.079 --> 00:42:38.280 don't know that this would apply, but in smaller terms 725 00:42:39.280 --> 00:42:44.360 that what you would have happened is essentially FIFA or 726 00:42:44.599 --> 00:42:49.440 MLS slash Atlanta whoever is owed money if one sale 727 00:42:49.480 --> 00:42:56.840 goes through, then there would basically be a lean placed 728 00:42:56.880 --> 00:43:02.440 on you know, that organization that says, whether it's any 729 00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:05.480 more money you make, garnish your wages type situation, or 730 00:43:05.480 --> 00:43:09.119 when you go to sell anything, that money has to 731 00:43:09.159 --> 00:43:12.599 go toward where it's owed first before you can start 732 00:43:12.639 --> 00:43:13.400 doing anything with it. 733 00:43:13.679 --> 00:43:15.559 Like I said, that's and that's the that's the rub 734 00:43:15.559 --> 00:43:17.239 in all of this. Where is it, Laney? Where is 735 00:43:17.280 --> 00:43:18.559 a MBSC in the queue? 736 00:43:18.800 --> 00:43:20.199 Yeah? 737 00:43:20.360 --> 00:43:23.800 Who else is publicly aggrieved by Eagle Football Holdings? 738 00:43:24.079 --> 00:43:29.440 Is this? Is this this lawsuit that is alleged ties. 739 00:43:29.119 --> 00:43:31.119 That we've talked about on Front Office Sports with the 740 00:43:31.159 --> 00:43:34.719 alleged Russian ties, are they are they higher up in 741 00:43:34.760 --> 00:43:37.920 the queue or do you go by because because John 742 00:43:37.960 --> 00:43:41.840 Texter and Eagle have not filed for bankruptcy protection. It's 743 00:43:41.880 --> 00:43:45.639 not creditors who have the largest amount to lose. I'm 744 00:43:45.679 --> 00:43:47.760 guessing it has to do with the calendar and not 745 00:43:47.840 --> 00:43:48.719 the amount of money. 746 00:43:49.239 --> 00:43:51.760 Yeah, so wow, Pars has done the math. 747 00:43:52.679 --> 00:43:56.440 So Pars looks like and this is Pars has done 748 00:43:56.480 --> 00:43:58.960 the math this morning, and it looks like according to Pars, 749 00:43:59.000 --> 00:44:02.639 your neighbor, well we figure thirty US. So Pars has 750 00:44:02.679 --> 00:44:06.679 it at twenty nine eight thirty plus fees Man twenty 751 00:44:06.800 --> 00:44:10.239 nine eight thirty right, and uh Loakville Eleen only if 752 00:44:10.239 --> 00:44:12.440 you can find standing in that country, and only the 753 00:44:12.559 --> 00:44:13.079 lawyers win. 754 00:44:13.159 --> 00:44:14.880 Yeah, and that's the thing I mean, And pars ball 755 00:44:14.960 --> 00:44:17.199 is pretty pretty spot on with the number. I think. 756 00:44:19.079 --> 00:44:20.920 The thing that kind of throws a wrench in all 757 00:44:20.920 --> 00:44:25.639 this local is the fact that this was a football 758 00:44:25.679 --> 00:44:32.960 tribunal in Argentina and so where things are filed. I 759 00:44:33.360 --> 00:44:35.519 don't know how all that plays in. You know, this 760 00:44:35.599 --> 00:44:39.599 is not like this is a like an actual court case, 761 00:44:39.639 --> 00:44:40.400 if that makes sense. 762 00:44:40.800 --> 00:44:43.679 Yeah, it's it is a it is a FIFA football tribunal. 763 00:44:43.800 --> 00:44:46.800 Yeah, and I don't know what the rules would be 764 00:44:46.800 --> 00:44:47.199 behind that. 765 00:44:48.079 --> 00:44:53.440 Yeah, So you're you're talking about ah Man. 766 00:44:54.840 --> 00:44:59.599 At the end of the day, they're both under FIFA, 767 00:44:59.719 --> 00:45:03.320 like you're both you're both part of that organization. So 768 00:45:03.400 --> 00:45:06.000 ultimately what it might come down to is where are 769 00:45:06.000 --> 00:45:07.239 they based At Switzerland They're. 770 00:45:07.119 --> 00:45:12.480 Based ye, I mean, get you some Swiss lawyer. 771 00:45:12.199 --> 00:45:18.000 In yeah, and banking, Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. 772 00:45:18.079 --> 00:45:20.360 It's it's a it's a cluster and there are lawyers 773 00:45:20.360 --> 00:45:22.280 that this is what they deal with specifically. So good 774 00:45:22.280 --> 00:45:26.360 for them, But I just don't think. I don't think 775 00:45:26.400 --> 00:45:30.239 it's going to be yeah, like asap that it's figured out. 776 00:45:30.480 --> 00:45:30.920 Yeah. 777 00:45:30.960 --> 00:45:35.199 So, So the ALMADA PDF is the requested required reading 778 00:45:35.239 --> 00:45:39.239 and printing for the day for for anyone that goes 779 00:45:39.320 --> 00:45:43.119 back and wants to go back and research the initial judgment, 780 00:45:43.719 --> 00:45:46.519 so that there there is your initial paperwork from the 781 00:45:46.559 --> 00:45:53.000 tail end of February involving at Landy United winning a decision. 782 00:45:53.119 --> 00:45:55.880 And they don't have any paperwork on the appeal do they? 783 00:45:56.639 --> 00:46:00.360 I have not seen anything in the appeal? Hango, hang on? 784 00:46:00.480 --> 00:46:00.719 Hang on? 785 00:46:00.920 --> 00:46:08.079 So uh the last so in uh so what documents? 786 00:46:08.159 --> 00:46:09.960 So what document was this? 787 00:46:10.079 --> 00:46:14.239 Where? What department? The tribunal? Nuts? 788 00:46:14.280 --> 00:46:20.239 Okay, so I've got a couple of things on Almada 789 00:46:21.760 --> 00:46:28.960 and wow, they actually had something with Pitty Martinez back 790 00:46:29.000 --> 00:46:30.079 in twenty three too. 791 00:46:30.679 --> 00:46:31.000 Wow. 792 00:46:32.519 --> 00:46:36.199 So but yeah, there were two two documents with Almada 793 00:46:36.519 --> 00:46:41.280 and uh it is the same fifteen page document that 794 00:46:41.320 --> 00:46:44.400 has been registered twice. So I I what you What 795 00:46:44.519 --> 00:46:47.280 I did is you got to inside dot FIFA dot 796 00:46:47.320 --> 00:46:49.920 com and you search and I'd searched for it Lanti 797 00:46:50.000 --> 00:46:55.119 United and you end up with uh Landy United FIFA redacted, 798 00:46:55.119 --> 00:46:56.920 and then you end up with the Almada judgment from 799 00:46:57.000 --> 00:47:01.280 late February and then pt and then other things. Is 800 00:47:01.280 --> 00:47:05.840 that No, that is not that's just United in the word, 801 00:47:05.880 --> 00:47:08.559 but not Atlanta United. But the Atlanta United. Last Atlanta 802 00:47:08.639 --> 00:47:12.840 United reference was back in February, February twenty fifth of 803 00:47:12.880 --> 00:47:16.159 this year. But nothing past that. When it comes to 804 00:47:16.719 --> 00:47:20.280 searching for documents inside FIFA, that's the last document that 805 00:47:20.320 --> 00:47:25.119 we have from the FIFA involving anything and Atlanta United. 806 00:47:26.079 --> 00:47:32.599 What does there need to be a FIFA credit rating? Yeah, well, 807 00:47:32.679 --> 00:47:34.679 I mean I would think that Atlanta United would be 808 00:47:34.719 --> 00:47:40.800 triple A and eagle. The eagle would probably be junk 809 00:47:40.880 --> 00:47:45.599 bond or the equivalent there in at this moment anyway. 810 00:47:45.440 --> 00:47:47.119 Got a three to fifty credit score. 811 00:47:47.360 --> 00:47:47.840 Yeah. 812 00:47:48.079 --> 00:47:52.760 Yeah, it's you know like when when Chris Washburn took 813 00:47:52.800 --> 00:47:57.039 his SATs and he got a three eighty you get 814 00:47:57.039 --> 00:47:59.199 four hundred for signing your name and watch less than 815 00:47:59.199 --> 00:48:03.639 a four hundred. Yeah, because apparently he answered wrong. He 816 00:48:03.719 --> 00:48:06.679 answered more wrong questions and then then it went below 817 00:48:06.679 --> 00:48:10.119 a four hundred. We've got a game to talk about tonight, Yeah, 818 00:48:10.199 --> 00:48:10.400 we do. 819 00:48:13.039 --> 00:48:13.880 We spent, We spent. 820 00:48:14.360 --> 00:48:17.519 We spent forty three minutes eight minutes. We spent forty 821 00:48:17.559 --> 00:48:18.400 eight minutes. 822 00:48:18.159 --> 00:48:21.360 Dissecting the Tiagua Mona case because I think it needed 823 00:48:21.400 --> 00:48:22.079 that dissection. 824 00:48:22.639 --> 00:48:25.079 I agree, I think it's insane and I hate that 825 00:48:25.079 --> 00:48:26.599 Atlanta has to be involved in it, but it is 826 00:48:26.639 --> 00:48:27.119 what it is. 827 00:48:27.280 --> 00:48:30.800 And so we tried to cover it as best we 828 00:48:31.079 --> 00:48:35.159 could because literally, we could keep going and we would 829 00:48:35.199 --> 00:48:37.880 still be going down you know, rabbit holes and everything. 830 00:48:37.880 --> 00:48:40.119 But there are certain tent poles that we needed to 831 00:48:40.199 --> 00:48:44.320 kind of grasp on to here involving what is being said, 832 00:48:45.079 --> 00:48:47.159 who might be going where, what the. 833 00:48:47.079 --> 00:48:48.880 Cost is, and what the background is. 834 00:48:48.920 --> 00:48:52.159 And I thought that the background was important involving this 835 00:48:52.239 --> 00:48:55.000 particular transaction. And hopefully, like I said, we can get 836 00:48:55.000 --> 00:48:56.599 some experts in the field to kind of break down 837 00:48:56.639 --> 00:48:58.760 how owners are allowed to continue to function like this 838 00:48:58.800 --> 00:49:03.159 next week morning four card. So Atlanta United going up 839 00:49:03.280 --> 00:49:09.039 against Chicago. Chicago is not known for a solid backline, 840 00:49:09.280 --> 00:49:12.519 but they are known for scoring goals. And you know, 841 00:49:12.679 --> 00:49:14.440 you can go to your favorite bakery and get your 842 00:49:14.639 --> 00:49:21.000 good good loaf of z Incernagle and the Zinkernagle, Gudierirez 843 00:49:21.280 --> 00:49:24.880 Hugo Kuipers. You anticipate they're gonna score, but you also 844 00:49:24.920 --> 00:49:26.639 anticipate they're going to give them up too. 845 00:49:28.000 --> 00:49:29.960 Yeah, and that's that's kind of how I'm going into 846 00:49:30.000 --> 00:49:33.719 this one just on paper, but I am concerned with 847 00:49:33.800 --> 00:49:37.679 the fact that Atlanta has not really scored goals barring 848 00:49:37.760 --> 00:49:41.280 a penalty that almost got saved at the very end 849 00:49:41.320 --> 00:49:45.639 of the last game. I I gave my prediction over 850 00:49:45.679 --> 00:49:48.079 on scars and Spikes as a three to two win 851 00:49:48.199 --> 00:49:54.280 for Atlanta. Okay, because of the on paper version, they 852 00:49:54.280 --> 00:49:57.760 should score against a leaky back line, but to be fair, 853 00:49:57.800 --> 00:50:04.719 Burholter has got them scoring as well. I can only 854 00:50:04.800 --> 00:50:10.039 hope that just being back at the bins gives this 855 00:50:10.119 --> 00:50:12.239 team an extra gear and gets them locked in in 856 00:50:12.280 --> 00:50:14.400 a way that unfortunately we haven't really seen. I mean, 857 00:50:14.599 --> 00:50:16.519 to be fair, they're on a winning streak at home 858 00:50:18.199 --> 00:50:21.719 last two before this insane road trip that was everything 859 00:50:21.719 --> 00:50:23.280 we thought it would be, which was rough. 860 00:50:23.519 --> 00:50:24.440 Yeah, happened. 861 00:50:26.880 --> 00:50:29.440 They had some games that they won. They weren't like 862 00:50:29.679 --> 00:50:32.599 convincing wins necessarily, but they won. You know, they did 863 00:50:32.639 --> 00:50:37.920 the job. And I think Chicago's always been one of 864 00:50:37.920 --> 00:50:41.000 those teams with Atlanta that like you just really never 865 00:50:41.159 --> 00:50:44.000 know what you're going to get, even when like like it. 866 00:50:44.119 --> 00:50:48.000 Right now, Atlanta has been playing not great, Chicago's been 867 00:50:48.000 --> 00:50:51.320 playing pretty okay. I don't know that that's necessarily going 868 00:50:51.400 --> 00:50:54.079 to turn into what the score line looks like at 869 00:50:54.079 --> 00:50:54.840 the end of tonight. 870 00:50:57.239 --> 00:51:00.079 So yeah, I'm looking at a lot of goals and 871 00:51:00.119 --> 00:51:02.239 I think I think that you're onto I think you're 872 00:51:02.280 --> 00:51:07.679 onto a path with Atlanta at home. And so it 873 00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:12.679 is a it is a challenging three matches in eleven days, 874 00:51:12.679 --> 00:51:16.199 if my math is correct. And then after this one, 875 00:51:17.440 --> 00:51:22.480 the team comes down eighty five and the the self 876 00:51:22.519 --> 00:51:28.519 imposed number one rivals of Charlotte FC and Patrick Ajumong 877 00:51:28.800 --> 00:51:35.280 is now officially over to Darby County and we find 878 00:51:35.320 --> 00:51:37.599 out yesterday I don't know if you did you see. 879 00:51:37.360 --> 00:51:41.000 This yesterday with Ajimon, which which thing. 880 00:51:41.119 --> 00:51:43.559 The the the apparent reason that he's not going to 881 00:51:43.639 --> 00:51:46.800 be starting training in the season at Darby County at 882 00:51:46.800 --> 00:51:50.159 full time. I did not see this, Okay, So our 883 00:51:50.159 --> 00:51:55.599 friend Carol Walton, Carol worked here in town for the 884 00:51:55.880 --> 00:52:01.280 longest time, and so yesterday and Carol is with the 885 00:52:01.400 --> 00:52:05.760 Ledger and they are now waiting for the Commissioner himself 886 00:52:06.719 --> 00:52:09.400 to announce that b of A I think is going 887 00:52:09.440 --> 00:52:13.559 to have the next All Star Games. So yesterday, Carol writes, 888 00:52:14.559 --> 00:52:18.159 Patrick Ajimong will undergo surgery from a lingering hernia issue, 889 00:52:18.199 --> 00:52:20.800 which Darby County mentioned in its release in misopening games 890 00:52:20.800 --> 00:52:22.840 of the EFL season. Quote A Jiemong has been playing 891 00:52:22.880 --> 00:52:25.360 for most of the twenty five Major League Soccer season 892 00:52:25.360 --> 00:52:29.360 with a hernia injury that has been managed without surgery, 893 00:52:29.840 --> 00:52:32.079 but many he's been playing in discomfort with a long 894 00:52:32.159 --> 00:52:34.079 term view of mind. All parties have agreed he'll undergo 895 00:52:34.199 --> 00:52:37.199 routine surgery and is therefore likely to miss the opening 896 00:52:37.199 --> 00:52:38.880 games of the twenty five to twenty sixth season. 897 00:52:40.119 --> 00:52:41.760 So Dean Smith. 898 00:52:43.039 --> 00:52:47.039 And Patrick Agyemong, I guess came came to some kind 899 00:52:47.079 --> 00:52:50.920 of an agreement. Yo Big Pat, we kind of need 900 00:52:50.920 --> 00:52:54.559 you to play well, and we know you've been diagnosed 901 00:52:54.599 --> 00:52:57.840 with a hernia. Can you go Can you go out 902 00:52:57.880 --> 00:53:01.360 there and play forest fam Sure? So he was playing 903 00:53:01.360 --> 00:53:07.039 with a hernia problem. That's a tough dude. 904 00:53:07.159 --> 00:53:09.559 I was just about to say Abby brought it up 905 00:53:09.559 --> 00:53:12.480 in the chat. But if Atlanta United fans know anything 906 00:53:12.480 --> 00:53:17.159 about hernias situations, it's because of Sosa. And he went 907 00:53:17.199 --> 00:53:24.440 out for significant time and when he got back, I'm 908 00:53:24.480 --> 00:53:26.079 not going to say he lost a step, but he wasn't. 909 00:53:26.199 --> 00:53:27.519 It took him a while to get back into the 910 00:53:27.559 --> 00:53:30.559 swing of things, which could partially just be being off 911 00:53:30.599 --> 00:53:32.639 for so long, but like, this is not a quick 912 00:53:32.719 --> 00:53:35.800 thing that you return from. I mean, I guess if 913 00:53:35.800 --> 00:53:38.119 they're gonna do it, yeah, do it as soon as possible. 914 00:53:38.519 --> 00:53:41.840 He's got the whole rest of the season and then well, 915 00:53:41.880 --> 00:53:45.920 I'm not in their case. Offseason, yeah, you know, to 916 00:53:45.960 --> 00:53:48.800 get into what maybe the early fall. 917 00:53:49.079 --> 00:53:51.119 Yeah, so I would imagine where you know, he might 918 00:53:51.119 --> 00:53:53.800 miss the first say month, the first four or five 919 00:53:53.840 --> 00:53:56.639 matches of the season in the forty six match sprint 920 00:53:56.679 --> 00:53:57.719 that is the championship. 921 00:53:57.880 --> 00:53:59.159 But the fact that he's getting called up to the 922 00:53:59.199 --> 00:54:00.840 men's national team everything else. 923 00:54:00.840 --> 00:54:02.840 And still playing with a Hernia. 924 00:54:05.039 --> 00:54:07.920 Good for good for Pat. I I think Darby has 925 00:54:07.960 --> 00:54:13.280 been royally ripped off in this entire transaction. But that's 926 00:54:13.400 --> 00:54:16.360 just my opinion. They did it. They did it. It's 927 00:54:16.360 --> 00:54:17.519 not not my problem. 928 00:54:17.800 --> 00:54:23.159 I mean, I get I look, like I said, I 929 00:54:23.199 --> 00:54:24.960 get Big Pat all the credit in the world for 930 00:54:25.000 --> 00:54:30.639 playing with a Hernia and apparently doing so with see 931 00:54:30.679 --> 00:54:36.840 and and this also lends itself to the notion of uh, 932 00:54:37.320 --> 00:54:40.360 I assume Mario. No, I'm assuming. 933 00:54:40.679 --> 00:54:41.440 I would hope so. 934 00:54:41.519 --> 00:54:42.400 I would hope so. 935 00:54:43.199 --> 00:54:44.840 And you're still putting Big Pat out there. 936 00:54:45.679 --> 00:54:49.079 I would hope it adds It adds more to the uh, 937 00:54:49.360 --> 00:54:52.559 it adds more to the subtext and the context of everything. 938 00:54:53.800 --> 00:54:57.440 I mean, I mean, yeah, that's that's kind of wild. 939 00:54:58.360 --> 00:55:02.199 I don't imagine though. I don't know, man. I just 940 00:55:03.480 --> 00:55:05.960 I find it hard to believe that that Poachagino would, 941 00:55:06.159 --> 00:55:09.599 if he knew yeah, would would then go and say, hey, yeah, 942 00:55:09.679 --> 00:55:13.960 go ahead and play. I just unless they were able 943 00:55:14.000 --> 00:55:17.000 to wordplay it enough to where they were like, no, no, 944 00:55:17.039 --> 00:55:21.119 it's not that bad. It's not that bad, Like it's okay, 945 00:55:21.159 --> 00:55:21.960 he can play, but. 946 00:55:22.000 --> 00:55:23.400 He just it's not that bad. 947 00:55:23.559 --> 00:55:25.920 He's gonna have to have surgery of someone I don't know. Man, 948 00:55:26.320 --> 00:55:28.480 That's that's just really weird to me. 949 00:55:30.039 --> 00:55:34.559 So, uh, we'll I'll be busy tonight at Mercedes Benz. 950 00:55:34.679 --> 00:55:39.360 So SNS was last night and you had your your 951 00:55:39.360 --> 00:55:43.079 discussions last night.

There goes Tyler, and uh, yeah, 978 00:57:02.480 --> 00:57:05.159 so this morning, like I said, I thought it was 979 00:57:05.239 --> 00:57:11.519 important to try and carry as much information forward as 980 00:57:11.519 --> 00:57:16.079 possible when it came to Thiago Almada and the chaos, 981 00:57:16.199 --> 00:57:20.800 the economic chaos that is attached. I mean, because you 982 00:57:21.039 --> 00:57:26.239 have right now, you have this, uh, you have this 983 00:57:27.440 --> 00:57:33.760 situation where I mean, if if you had a player 984 00:57:33.800 --> 00:57:38.559 that is as talented as Thiago Almada and you were 985 00:57:41.320 --> 00:57:44.760 what see, all right, let's let's let's think about this 986 00:57:44.800 --> 00:57:47.960 for a second. If you had Dylan Butler joining us 987 00:57:48.159 --> 00:57:51.639 in like a second and a half here, if you 988 00:57:51.880 --> 00:57:53.519 had and I'm gonna look at the standings and then 989 00:57:53.519 --> 00:57:55.519 we'll look at the ownership groups and things like that. 990 00:57:56.199 --> 00:58:01.719 So if you had say, let's see, I'm trying to 991 00:58:01.719 --> 00:58:07.760 see if there's somebody that isn't all of that financially, 992 00:58:07.880 --> 00:58:10.920 maybe a DC United with Jason Levian in that group. 993 00:58:13.880 --> 00:58:18.920 So it's like someone that really has a Salt Lake 994 00:58:20.360 --> 00:58:25.679 Sporting maybe someone in those veins if they were in 995 00:58:25.679 --> 00:58:30.119 the situation that Atlanta is in involving Thiago Almada where 996 00:58:30.599 --> 00:58:35.760 thirty million is hanging out there and you really needed it. 997 00:58:36.400 --> 00:58:39.960 I mean, that's that's where we are right now. And 998 00:58:40.000 --> 00:58:44.239 so we bring in Dylan Butler from MLS Soccer dot Com. Yeah, 999 00:58:44.280 --> 00:58:47.840 Dylan only spent the first hour discussing economics down here. 1000 00:58:48.440 --> 00:58:53.760 Fun well, and because of the Thiago Almada transfer that 1001 00:58:53.880 --> 00:59:01.320 is being reported from Botafogo to Athlete and Atlanta is 1002 00:59:01.360 --> 00:59:05.119 still being owed money from a summary judgment from FIFA 1003 00:59:05.239 --> 00:59:09.920 back in late February from the initial purchase by Eagle 1004 00:59:09.960 --> 00:59:13.360 Football Group of Thiagua Almada to get him into both 1005 00:59:13.360 --> 00:59:16.159 the Fogo Crystal Palace, Leon Chain and John Texter, and 1006 00:59:16.199 --> 00:59:18.239 we had to go down that rabbit hole to kind 1007 00:59:18.239 --> 00:59:20.199 of sit there and figure out where things stand. That's 1008 00:59:20.239 --> 00:59:22.920 where we spent our first hour this morning talking economics 1009 00:59:22.920 --> 00:59:25.800 down here and thirty million dollars and who who's in 1010 00:59:25.880 --> 00:59:28.360 line to get that from Eagle Football Holdings in a 1011 00:59:28.400 --> 00:59:31.239 situation like where are you in the queue serving number seven? 1012 00:59:31.320 --> 00:59:33.599 You know who? Where are you in this kind of thing? 1013 00:59:33.679 --> 00:59:34.440 So that's where we were. 1014 00:59:34.480 --> 00:59:36.440 That's where we were this morning, trying to break everything 1015 00:59:36.480 --> 00:59:39.639 down because uh, dude was told by FIFA, you know, 1016 00:59:39.760 --> 00:59:42.079 Atlanta United money and then you sell the player again 1017 00:59:43.199 --> 00:59:45.719 and so that's that's and it was just an odd 1018 00:59:45.760 --> 00:59:48.679 transfer in the first place. And so yeah, so we 1019 00:59:48.679 --> 00:59:51.039 spent our first hour not really discussing a whole lot 1020 00:59:51.039 --> 00:59:55.480 about matches in the midweek, but about economics. So, uh, 1021 00:59:55.519 --> 00:59:57.880 you are our savior and our salvation to discuss all 1022 00:59:57.920 --> 00:59:58.800 the matches in the midweek. 1023 00:59:58.880 --> 01:00:00.800 I don't know about that because I'm dealing my own 1024 01:00:00.840 --> 01:00:03.360 economics and Newcastle here. Have you have you heard this? No? 1025 01:00:03.480 --> 01:00:04.280 What's the latest? 1026 01:00:04.960 --> 01:00:07.880 Oh well, I know that. What's what's up with ESOC 1027 01:00:07.960 --> 01:00:11.519 and everything? I know that we exactly so ESAC staying 1028 01:00:11.599 --> 01:00:12.519 not staying what's up? 1029 01:00:12.920 --> 01:00:20.519 I don't know. I mean, Liverpool allegedly reportedly have one 1030 01:00:20.559 --> 01:00:23.719 hundred and twenty million dollar bid in on them, which 1031 01:00:23.719 --> 01:00:27.159 would be which would be a Premier League record or 1032 01:00:27.199 --> 01:00:33.840 they're bandying about that amount. Uh you know, I know, 1033 01:00:33.920 --> 01:00:36.320 I know we're shopping in Germany as well. 1034 01:00:37.679 --> 01:00:37.880 You know. 1035 01:00:37.920 --> 01:00:45.039 The whole financial fair play nonsense obviously plays a factor. 1036 01:00:45.119 --> 01:00:48.679 Like we we probably couldn't have both players on the roster, 1037 01:00:49.199 --> 01:00:55.360 so I think, I think, what what is a painful 1038 01:00:55.480 --> 01:00:57.920 lesson in all of this is as a Newcastle supporter, 1039 01:00:58.800 --> 01:01:02.960 you know, and we're trying our darnedest to move up 1040 01:01:03.039 --> 01:01:07.679 the food chain. Yes, the stark reality is that there 1041 01:01:07.760 --> 01:01:12.920 is in fact a food chain and we ain't Liverpool yet. 1042 01:01:12.880 --> 01:01:17.239 So no, but that that to me will be you know, where, 1043 01:01:17.880 --> 01:01:22.000 how what would it take to keep him in house? 1044 01:01:22.840 --> 01:01:24.960 Or do you sit there and go, well, it's nine 1045 01:01:25.000 --> 01:01:28.119 figures to the left of the decimal place. We probably 1046 01:01:28.159 --> 01:01:30.079 should boogie on that so we can invest it in 1047 01:01:30.119 --> 01:01:32.280 other players and hopefully find someone that could be just 1048 01:01:32.320 --> 01:01:33.000 as valuable. 1049 01:01:33.320 --> 01:01:36.840 I mean, it's probably going to be a case of what, 1050 01:01:38.840 --> 01:01:41.679 you know, what's the number? You know, like it's not 1051 01:01:41.800 --> 01:01:46.800 it's like one twenty is what's being bandied about, you know, 1052 01:01:47.000 --> 01:01:49.760 is it one fifty? You know, maybe one fifty would 1053 01:01:49.760 --> 01:01:53.880 do it. It would be hard to turn down one 1054 01:01:53.960 --> 01:02:00.760 hundred and fifty million for Esach. Right, absolutely, he's outstanding. 1055 01:02:01.119 --> 01:02:07.800 But uh yeah, I think uh, I think it's unfortunately 1056 01:02:07.840 --> 01:02:12.519 it's it's it seems likely that would happen. 1057 01:02:12.880 --> 01:02:16.679 Huh Fabrizio Romano at all making an approach to Newcastle 1058 01:02:16.719 --> 01:02:18.400 with a fee of around one hundred and twenty million 1059 01:02:18.400 --> 01:02:23.360 pounds being discussed. Gimme sports. Sources previously reported Liverpool considering 1060 01:02:23.360 --> 01:02:25.800 making a player to secure Esocks and making a play 1061 01:02:26.400 --> 01:02:29.400 to secure Esocks signature, willing to pay a British record 1062 01:02:29.400 --> 01:02:32.880 fee to sign him this summer. Yeah, that I thought 1063 01:02:32.920 --> 01:02:37.039 was one twenty and that's where Yeah, so one and 1064 01:02:37.079 --> 01:02:41.760 twenty million pounds splashing the cash in the Estesoch pursuit. 1065 01:02:41.800 --> 01:02:45.079 And this is uh Danny Rust and Ben Jacobs over 1066 01:02:45.119 --> 01:02:50.000 at GMS and they're ready to shatterr the British transfer 1067 01:02:50.039 --> 01:02:53.760 record for a second time in quick succession. Described as 1068 01:02:53.760 --> 01:02:55.440 the best striker. 1069 01:02:55.000 --> 01:03:00.760 In the world. And so, uh, he's on the clock. 1070 01:03:01.960 --> 01:03:05.679 I mean, Milo's kirkash and Esach and one hundred and 1071 01:03:05.719 --> 01:03:09.039 twenty million and if that does, that does happen. I 1072 01:03:09.320 --> 01:03:12.559 want to know what the market is for you Common 1073 01:03:12.599 --> 01:03:15.480 Newcastle Comma in the trickle down trying to find folks 1074 01:03:15.559 --> 01:03:18.400 to uh to get folks to replace that kind of scoring, 1075 01:03:18.440 --> 01:03:19.840 because that's rough to get a FA. 1076 01:03:19.840 --> 01:03:23.400 I mean the number I think, uh, I can't remember. 1077 01:03:23.800 --> 01:03:29.159 I think it's the lever Cusian striker that were we're after. 1078 01:03:29.440 --> 01:03:31.960 And I want to say, that's in the eighty ninety million. 1079 01:03:33.199 --> 01:03:35.000 Yeah, I think that's that's in the that's in the 1080 01:03:35.039 --> 01:03:39.000 eighty and so, uh, your your fellow Jordie Alex. Look 1081 01:03:39.000 --> 01:03:42.679 at what Liverpool did with the money from Kutino as 1082 01:03:42.719 --> 01:03:44.760 a part of all of this discussion. At some point 1083 01:03:44.760 --> 01:03:47.320 Newcastle will have to sell a player at peak to 1084 01:03:47.400 --> 01:03:48.320 fuel transformation. 1085 01:03:48.400 --> 01:03:50.159 That's what it just it just it sucks because like 1086 01:03:51.599 --> 01:03:56.880 you know, it's I get the reasoning for the financial 1087 01:03:56.920 --> 01:04:01.000 fair play, right, yeah, but financial fair play wasn't in 1088 01:04:01.039 --> 01:04:07.519 play for Manchester City and Liverpool and Arsenal and Manchester United, 1089 01:04:07.639 --> 01:04:11.559 like they all became these mega clubs before this happened, 1090 01:04:12.679 --> 01:04:15.239 you know. Now all of a sudden, you know, like 1091 01:04:15.320 --> 01:04:18.880 when when other clubs are looking to to kind of 1092 01:04:20.159 --> 01:04:24.719 pierce the top grouping, you know there's financial fair play 1093 01:04:24.760 --> 01:04:25.239 is involved. 1094 01:04:25.400 --> 01:04:30.679 Yes, so uh nothing nothing like little FFP like more 1095 01:04:30.679 --> 01:04:34.320 more economics down here. Uh So did you survive Open 1096 01:04:34.360 --> 01:04:39.039 Cup after dark from last week? Uh? 1097 01:04:39.159 --> 01:04:41.920 Yeah, yeah, yeah, I was. 1098 01:04:41.840 --> 01:04:44.840 Trying to remember back jo overtime. 1099 01:04:45.360 --> 01:04:48.519 No, you know what I wasn't on Tuesday. I was 1100 01:04:48.559 --> 01:04:57.079 on Wednesday. And my Wednesday started off brilliantly. I so 1101 01:04:57.199 --> 01:05:00.239 I had. I had a double of can champ An 1102 01:05:00.280 --> 01:05:06.920 Open Cup going right, So my Wednesday started off with, uh, 1103 01:05:06.960 --> 01:05:10.760 you know, checking checking the socials. Oh look, there's a 1104 01:05:11.440 --> 01:05:13.440 we're delayed in Philly. All right, We're off to the 1105 01:05:13.559 --> 01:05:17.719 great start. Yes, let me let me tune into Montreal 1106 01:05:18.000 --> 01:05:21.760 over here right. Uh, oh, wait a minute, there's a 1107 01:05:21.760 --> 01:05:27.239 power outage as Statsaputo, we lost a feed. Oh wait no, 1108 01:05:27.320 --> 01:05:30.599 the it's actually in the stadium. So now we're waiting 1109 01:05:30.639 --> 01:05:36.199 on that. They decided to restart the match before they 1110 01:05:36.199 --> 01:05:40.000 were able to restart the TV. So like Prince of 1111 01:05:40.079 --> 01:05:44.800 WUSU scores, nobody sees it except for the couple thousand 1112 01:05:44.840 --> 01:05:45.480 in the stadium. 1113 01:05:45.480 --> 01:05:50.000 That stops t folks in the stadium. 1114 01:05:51.039 --> 01:05:53.800 And then uh, and then what did I have that 1115 01:05:53.960 --> 01:06:01.920 had the wildness of Nashville d C which effectively ended 1116 01:06:01.960 --> 01:06:03.320 the Troy Lsine era. 1117 01:06:05.199 --> 01:06:07.119 They are no longer l Saine in the membrane. 1118 01:06:07.360 --> 01:06:12.440 Yeah, yeah, and uh. And then it was Vancouver with 1119 01:06:12.559 --> 01:06:16.960 a ninetieth minute winner to be the only MLS team 1120 01:06:17.000 --> 01:06:21.320 to advance to the can Champ Final four. So it 1121 01:06:21.360 --> 01:06:22.360 was a pretty wild Wednesday. Y. 1122 01:06:22.440 --> 01:06:24.880 Yes, you had nothing going on, basically what you're saying, 1123 01:06:25.320 --> 01:06:29.599 it was all boring. It is three matches in either 1124 01:06:29.639 --> 01:06:33.880 eleven or twelve days for Major League Soccer, and tonight 1125 01:06:34.639 --> 01:06:36.440 we got a lot of earlies.

You know that that 1140 01:07:25.159 --> 01:07:31.360 Messi's really good at soccer. We started looking back, so 1141 01:07:32.480 --> 01:07:37.719 he's on five consecutive braces that we were able to 1142 01:07:37.760 --> 01:07:43.360 see the he had six with Barcelona in like twenty twelve. 1143 01:07:44.519 --> 01:07:49.480 So that's the that's kind of what he's chasing right now.

What would what would benefit? 1172 01:09:11.800 --> 01:09:13.640 What benefit? You're writing the most? 1173 01:09:14.560 --> 01:09:18.840 Well, I'm not the one writing, I'm assigning, So I listen. 1174 01:09:18.880 --> 01:09:21.640 I think it's a cool it's a it's honestly looks 1175 01:09:21.680 --> 01:09:24.319 it's all about the start value, right, it's a Vander, 1176 01:09:24.359 --> 01:09:24.960 and it's messy. 1177 01:09:25.039 --> 01:09:25.159 Right. 1178 01:09:25.159 --> 01:09:28.680 That's lots a ton of fun right there. So you know, 1179 01:09:28.720 --> 01:09:30.560 I'd love to see both of them kind of show out, 1180 01:09:30.600 --> 01:09:33.119 you know, like you said, maybe go over maybe a 1181 01:09:33.119 --> 01:09:36.079 four to three kind of game. Both of those guys 1182 01:09:36.119 --> 01:09:37.079 get a brace maybe. 1183 01:09:37.239 --> 01:09:39.439 Ooh, and a Vander apparently is being looked at by 1184 01:09:39.479 --> 01:09:43.960 teams in South America for the total of seventeen million euro. 1185 01:09:44.079 --> 01:09:45.560 I think that's the number that I saw. 1186 01:09:46.560 --> 01:09:49.000 Uh So, three and a half is even money plus 1187 01:09:49.000 --> 01:09:51.279 one hundred four and a half is a plus two 1188 01:09:51.319 --> 01:09:52.960 twenty eight. So if you're looking at a three to two, 1189 01:09:54.119 --> 01:09:55.720 then you could get that at a plus two twenty 1190 01:09:55.760 --> 01:09:57.760 eight on the over five and a half. If you're 1191 01:09:57.800 --> 01:10:02.039 looking at your your three to three plus four ninety 1192 01:10:02.079 --> 01:10:03.640 two and then you get your four to three like 1193 01:10:03.720 --> 01:10:05.640 you were saying, that's a plus ten thirty three in 1194 01:10:05.680 --> 01:10:09.399 the composite, that's a plus ten thirty three if you 1195 01:10:09.560 --> 01:10:11.319 if you want your three, if you want your four 1196 01:10:11.319 --> 01:10:13.439 to three matchup. That's what folks are doing in the 1197 01:10:13.439 --> 01:10:17.119 composite right now with the juice boxes. I don't have 1198 01:10:17.119 --> 01:10:20.600 any juice boxes. It could cover that is out there 1199 01:10:21.079 --> 01:10:26.239 the other seven thirties Charlotte and DC. Don Garber is 1200 01:10:26.279 --> 01:10:29.479 in town today to announce that B of A is 1201 01:10:29.520 --> 01:10:31.039 going to get the new All Star Game, the next 1202 01:10:31.119 --> 01:10:32.760 All Star Game. I don't know if it's going to 1203 01:10:32.760 --> 01:10:34.720 be a new All Star Game unless they take what 1204 01:10:34.840 --> 01:10:36.520 we wanted to do with the All Star Game and 1205 01:10:36.560 --> 01:10:40.560 turn it into new Red Bulls hosting the revs. Purple 1206 01:10:40.600 --> 01:10:43.439 team in NYC, Philly in Montreal. What sticks out in 1207 01:10:43.439 --> 01:10:44.439 those early kicks for you? 1208 01:10:47.880 --> 01:11:00.920 Cincinnati? He lookt NYC. It is a team that is uh, 1209 01:11:01.560 --> 01:11:03.319 you know, it's like it's like the roller coaster in 1210 01:11:03.359 --> 01:11:07.479 Coney Island right there. They're up and down. No consistency 1211 01:11:07.520 --> 01:11:11.520 in any form They've gone like win loss, win, loss, 1212 01:11:11.600 --> 01:11:15.600 win loss, I think for the past six or seven matches. 1213 01:11:15.680 --> 01:11:21.399 So Orlando will will be upset that they gave up 1214 01:11:21.399 --> 01:11:28.520 that late equalizer to Montreal Philly. 1215 01:11:29.439 --> 01:11:29.640 Yeah. 1216 01:11:29.640 --> 01:11:35.119 I don't know, Charlotte. Uh, you know, let's see. Let's 1217 01:11:35.159 --> 01:11:37.159 see if if that was a one off, you know, 1218 01:11:37.239 --> 01:11:40.960 with the Agimon replacement, or if they have found him 1219 01:11:41.159 --> 01:11:44.359 in house. Did you I'm still not a fan of 1220 01:11:44.359 --> 01:11:44.720 that move. 1221 01:11:45.079 --> 01:11:46.239 Did you well? Did so? 1222 01:11:46.399 --> 01:11:48.800 Did you see the report that came out of the 1223 01:11:48.960 --> 01:11:51.239 Darby County release that we were talking about before you 1224 01:11:51.279 --> 01:11:57.319 popped in? No, he was playing with a hernia. Huh, 1225 01:11:57.399 --> 01:12:00.680 he's gonna have surgery. Darby comp is going to a 1226 01:12:00.720 --> 01:12:04.680 lot for surgery, and so in the release in the 1227 01:12:04.720 --> 01:12:06.520 sale of Darby County, which I think was for like 1228 01:12:06.560 --> 01:12:13.560 seven point two US, so the release from Darby County quote, 1229 01:12:14.199 --> 01:12:16.600 Ajimong has been playing for most of the twenty five 1230 01:12:16.640 --> 01:12:18.960 Major League Soccer season with a hernia injury that has 1231 01:12:19.000 --> 01:12:22.359 been managed without surgery, but meant he has been playing 1232 01:12:22.399 --> 01:12:23.119 in discomfort. 1233 01:12:23.479 --> 01:12:24.560 With a long term view in mind. 1234 01:12:24.560 --> 01:12:27.159 All parties have agreed he'll undergo routine surgeries, therefore likely 1235 01:12:27.239 --> 01:12:29.479 to miss the opening games of the twenty five twenty 1236 01:12:29.520 --> 01:12:38.279 sixth season.

I think there are two points out of 1253 01:13:35.239 --> 01:13:42.399 first right now. They are the set piece specialists of 1254 01:13:42.920 --> 01:13:48.319 Major League Soccer, going old school right, like they're going 1255 01:13:48.399 --> 01:13:51.640 like nineteen nineties high school soccer, Like, let's get a 1256 01:13:51.760 --> 01:13:55.439 guy with a long throw, yeah, and then just throw 1257 01:13:55.600 --> 01:13:58.239 numbers in the box and something will happen and it works. 1258 01:13:58.520 --> 01:14:03.039 Hey, Michael, throw this as far as humanly possible, and 1259 01:14:03.079 --> 01:14:03.439 you're right. 1260 01:14:03.640 --> 01:14:05.079 You're right. There are two points. 1261 01:14:04.760 --> 01:14:10.560 Back and and Nashville Columbus as well. Right, Columbus, you 1262 01:14:10.600 --> 01:14:14.880 know the Rockies if you will, right of Major League Soccer, Right, 1263 01:14:14.920 --> 01:14:19.159 throw on the ropes, cut me and we'll just we'll 1264 01:14:19.199 --> 01:14:23.680 just cruise to a win in hell is real, you know, 1265 01:14:23.720 --> 01:14:28.359 against the Nashville team as well, right that. That's like, 1266 01:14:28.439 --> 01:14:33.399 those are four of the I don't know, maybe six 1267 01:14:33.560 --> 01:14:36.880 best teams right now, seven best teams in MLS, all 1268 01:14:36.960 --> 01:14:40.199 kind of going out against each other. So that, yeah, 1269 01:14:40.239 --> 01:14:41.239 I think both of those are fun. 1270 01:14:41.479 --> 01:14:41.680 Yep. 1271 01:14:41.880 --> 01:14:47.399 So to your point, Nashville and Crew, that's three and 1272 01:14:47.520 --> 01:14:49.680 four right now, they're both at forty one points with 1273 01:14:49.720 --> 01:14:53.359 twelve matches to go forty one points. Nashville has one 1274 01:14:53.359 --> 01:14:55.880 more win, they've got better goal difference. Columbus is fourth, 1275 01:14:56.520 --> 01:15:01.319 then Minnesota and LAFC. Era Long is out for the year, 1276 01:15:01.479 --> 01:15:05.239 so that got announced the other day. Minnesota's second, eight 1277 01:15:05.279 --> 01:15:09.039 points clear of LAFC, but LAFC has three matches in 1278 01:15:09.159 --> 01:15:13.600 hand on Minnesota two matches in hand on everybody above them. 1279 01:15:13.640 --> 01:15:15.520 So I mean, if you end up with five points, 1280 01:15:15.560 --> 01:15:18.199 you're basically in fourth and you've got your home match 1281 01:15:18.880 --> 01:15:23.279 for opening round of the playoffs. You're ten o'clock Seattle 1282 01:15:23.319 --> 01:15:25.840 and Colorado. Seattle a big favorite at home at minus 1283 01:15:25.880 --> 01:15:30.600 one seventy five Galaxy and Austin Noah US Open Cup 1284 01:15:30.600 --> 01:15:33.600 hero Brandon Vasquez for the remainder of the season. So 1285 01:15:33.760 --> 01:15:37.239 one third of your goal total is gone. One third, 1286 01:15:38.239 --> 01:15:42.000 and that Brandon Vasquez has five of the fifteen that 1287 01:15:42.039 --> 01:15:44.560 have been scored by Austin Right now, the biggest question 1288 01:15:44.680 --> 01:15:48.319 for me is his own goal make a return to 1289 01:15:48.720 --> 01:15:51.720 climb up the rankings. When it comes to goals being 1290 01:15:51.760 --> 01:15:54.239 scored by Austin. Who picks up the slack in Austin 1291 01:15:54.520 --> 01:15:57.720 and they're going up against an LAG team, Oh my god, 1292 01:15:57.920 --> 01:15:59.720 Lag is hot. 1293 01:16:00.600 --> 01:16:02.760 Yeah. And then this is one too where they've like, 1294 01:16:02.920 --> 01:16:08.000 this is if the if they want to somehow defy 1295 01:16:08.079 --> 01:16:11.159 the odds and and make this un you know, improbable 1296 01:16:12.560 --> 01:16:16.600 leap up the table. These are three points they have 1297 01:16:16.720 --> 01:16:20.840 to absolutely have. I do like though, what we're seeing 1298 01:16:20.840 --> 01:16:24.039 from Marco Royce. I think he's he's definitely leading the 1299 01:16:24.039 --> 01:16:29.600 line for them playing really well. So yeah, they've got it. 1300 01:16:29.640 --> 01:16:30.880 They've got to get those for sure. 1301 01:16:31.079 --> 01:16:31.520 Yeah. 1302 01:16:31.560 --> 01:16:35.600 And so Seattle minus one seventy five, Galaxy of minus 1303 01:16:35.640 --> 01:16:38.640 one oh eight at home with Austin at a plus 1304 01:16:38.640 --> 01:16:42.079 two sixty eight Portland plus one thirty one. They're on 1305 01:16:42.119 --> 01:16:46.640 the plus side going up against RSL San Diego Big Favorite, 1306 01:16:46.680 --> 01:16:49.199 No Surprise against Toronto FC. I haven't had the chance 1307 01:16:49.239 --> 01:16:50.960 to talk to you about the two oopsies that got 1308 01:16:51.039 --> 01:16:53.600 dropped in two and a half hours last week with 1309 01:16:53.720 --> 01:16:57.159 the Insignior and Bernardeski, And it's like Oopsie one and 1310 01:16:57.199 --> 01:16:59.520 then Oopsie two, So literally we had both of those 1311 01:16:59.600 --> 01:17:00.720 dropped ring the show. 1312 01:17:01.439 --> 01:17:04.600 They did it. They did it like like the end 1313 01:17:04.800 --> 01:17:13.239 of the god Godfather won right, like it was hits 1314 01:17:13.239 --> 01:17:21.479 almost simultaneous. Yeah, one guys, one guy's uh on the 1315 01:17:21.520 --> 01:17:24.119 massage table and and gets shot. The other guy gets 1316 01:17:24.159 --> 01:17:27.399 locked into the doorway and and gets done. 1317 01:17:27.439 --> 01:17:30.760 And yeah, yes, I'm right there, I'm right there with 1318 01:17:30.800 --> 01:17:34.720 you with that. Then San Diego Big Favorite, No Surprise 1319 01:17:34.800 --> 01:17:39.479 of minus two seventy eight San Jose and FC Dallas 1320 01:17:39.680 --> 01:17:42.119 San Jose Big Favorite at a minus one seventy nine 1321 01:17:42.239 --> 01:17:45.159 FC D on the road basically a plus four hundreds, So. 1322 01:17:46.439 --> 01:17:48.079 I think of the late ones, it's for me, it's 1323 01:17:48.119 --> 01:17:51.279 Portland salt Lake. Yeah, that could be interesting, right, Like 1324 01:17:51.359 --> 01:17:56.720 Portland's a much they've I think they have three straight 1325 01:17:57.079 --> 01:18:00.880 road losses, obviously a better it's team at home. Salt 1326 01:18:00.960 --> 01:18:04.119 Lake is getting their mojo back a little bit, right. 1327 01:18:04.239 --> 01:18:08.439 Luna's back with them obviously, and you know, A gotta 1328 01:18:08.520 --> 01:18:12.640 scored a for them on the weekend, so you know 1329 01:18:12.680 --> 01:18:16.239 that that could be one that gets you through those 1330 01:18:16.319 --> 01:18:18.720 late kickoffs. 1331 01:18:17.920 --> 01:18:22.039 And uh, I will circle back Atlanta and Chicago. Atlanta 1332 01:18:22.079 --> 01:18:25.199 favored at home at a plus one twenty four draws 1333 01:18:25.199 --> 01:18:28.279 a plus two ninety, the fire a plus one eighty one. 1334 01:18:29.079 --> 01:18:31.479 What are you envisioning in this one other than probably 1335 01:18:31.479 --> 01:18:33.720 the total going over? 1336 01:18:35.319 --> 01:18:41.479 Um, yeah, I don't know, hard to hard to. 1337 01:18:41.479 --> 01:18:45.199 Tell, uh huh. Your diplomacy for either team? 1338 01:18:45.399 --> 01:18:47.720 Yeah, Like I said, I mean, it's that's why I 1339 01:18:47.720 --> 01:18:49.640 figure you might get a lot of goals scored. And 1340 01:18:49.680 --> 01:18:51.159 of course, now that we say that, it's probably gonna 1341 01:18:51.159 --> 01:18:56.359 be like one mil. It was announced this hour Charlotte 1342 01:18:56.359 --> 01:18:59.560 gets the All Star Game in twenty twenty six. Thirtieth 1343 01:18:59.600 --> 01:19:01.560 All Star matchup is going to be next summer at 1344 01:19:01.560 --> 01:19:05.039 b of A quote from Don Garber from the league, 1345 01:19:05.119 --> 01:19:09.079 they're excited. League record seventy four, four to seventy nine 1346 01:19:09.119 --> 01:19:13.520 when they had the matchup against lag to start. Quote 1347 01:19:13.520 --> 01:19:16.760 from David Tepper two sentences long. Made the announcement at 1348 01:19:16.800 --> 01:19:18.600 a press conference today with a lot of folks with 1349 01:19:18.600 --> 01:19:23.039 the last name of Tepper, Charlotte Mayor Vy Lyles, Secretary 1350 01:19:23.039 --> 01:19:25.840 of Commerce, co chair of the Charlotte Sports Foundation, marking 1351 01:19:25.880 --> 01:19:27.640 the first ever All Star Game played at b OF 1352 01:19:27.720 --> 01:19:31.600 a Daton opponent obviously announced at a later time, photos 1353 01:19:31.600 --> 01:19:35.479 and video having been released week long celebration Governor Josh 1354 01:19:35.479 --> 01:19:38.479 Stein from North Carolina with a couple of quotes by Lyles, 1355 01:19:38.520 --> 01:19:40.680 a couple of quotes, Will Pitts a couple of quotes, 1356 01:19:41.319 --> 01:19:45.159 and they discussed what's going on with David Tepper as 1357 01:19:45.159 --> 01:19:48.640 we await the twenty twenty five All Star Game coming 1358 01:19:48.720 --> 01:19:52.199 up a week from today at Q two in Austin 1359 01:19:52.359 --> 01:19:55.119 in front of a smaller than it should be crowd 1360 01:19:55.159 --> 01:19:59.239 of probably twenty thousand and change. So that was the 1361 01:19:59.239 --> 01:20:01.439 news that came out of Major League Soccer this morning, 1362 01:20:01.520 --> 01:20:03.920 is that they now know where they're going for the 1363 01:20:04.000 --> 01:20:05.760 All Star game next year. 1364 01:20:07.680 --> 01:20:12.079 Yeah, I think Charlotte's you know there there's a buzz 1365 01:20:12.119 --> 01:20:15.720 there certainly right like that that place gets uh, it's 1366 01:20:15.760 --> 01:20:19.520 it's one of the rare cases, I guess. Well at 1367 01:20:19.560 --> 01:20:21.319 Lanta is one of them. Seattle is another one of 1368 01:20:21.359 --> 01:20:26.680 them right where the football stadium, even if it's not 1369 01:20:26.760 --> 01:20:31.279 necessarily going to be the long term because I think 1370 01:20:31.319 --> 01:20:33.800 there's some discussions right about a soccer specific stadium there, 1371 01:20:33.840 --> 01:20:39.800 but I think it works for them right like they 1372 01:20:40.000 --> 01:20:43.279 they can, they have the opportunity to draw the big 1373 01:20:43.319 --> 01:20:48.960 crowds and uh and and Charlotte kind of regularly does 1374 01:20:49.000 --> 01:20:53.000 that as well too. It's it's noisy, it's it's a 1375 01:20:53.119 --> 01:20:55.880 nice kind of compact city. 1376 01:20:55.720 --> 01:20:56.039 Right. 1377 01:20:57.560 --> 01:21:00.439 Yeah. Yeah, there's a lot to like about that, I think. 1378 01:21:01.159 --> 01:21:04.560 And pars to your point, I think at the skills 1379 01:21:04.560 --> 01:21:07.199 and everything that's going to be on Apple, So keep 1380 01:21:07.239 --> 01:21:10.960 an eye on that. The thoughts in the timeline from 1381 01:21:11.119 --> 01:21:14.960 once again your fellow, your fellow Jordi Alex looks like 1382 01:21:15.039 --> 01:21:18.319 Rodrigo de Paul deal very very close, depending on who 1383 01:21:18.359 --> 01:21:24.239 you follow on social media. Gustin a Duel is confirming 1384 01:21:24.239 --> 01:21:27.119 a four year deal right now, and Gaston has over 1385 01:21:27.359 --> 01:21:32.920 a million followers on the twitters done deal sign with 1386 01:21:33.000 --> 01:21:37.119 four years nothing like nothing confirmed confirmed, but everybody's leaning 1387 01:21:37.119 --> 01:21:39.920 to that four year deal right now. For Britzio Romano 1388 01:21:40.039 --> 01:21:44.920 twenty minutes ago closing, he's using closing in on Rodrigo 1389 01:21:44.960 --> 01:21:50.039 de Paul being Messy and friends next signing Athletic COO 1390 01:21:50.079 --> 01:21:53.399 Madrid have accepted the proposal, according to Forbritziy Ormano, talks 1391 01:21:53.399 --> 01:21:56.800 already advanced reported last week. Now deal almost done, final 1392 01:21:56.840 --> 01:21:59.960 details being sorted on a four and then here we go. 1393 01:22:00.079 --> 01:22:02.640 So for Britzio is like here we go as close 1394 01:22:03.119 --> 01:22:05.319 Gaston a duel is like not it's confirmed, it's a 1395 01:22:05.319 --> 01:22:10.640 four year deal. And so now with Rodrigo de Paul 1396 01:22:10.760 --> 01:22:15.880 coming in, this my guess is and I was talking 1397 01:22:15.920 --> 01:22:20.560 with Jamie Watson from Apple about this last week because 1398 01:22:20.560 --> 01:22:22.760 he was getting ready to call the Messian Friends match 1399 01:22:23.159 --> 01:22:26.560 last weekend. This is going to cause one of two 1400 01:22:26.640 --> 01:22:29.560 things to happen in Major League Soccer, and specifically with 1401 01:22:29.600 --> 01:22:33.680 Messi and Friends. So let me, let me, let me say, 1402 01:22:33.960 --> 01:22:35.880 let me say my theory here, and you tell me 1403 01:22:35.920 --> 01:22:38.880 if I'm if I'm loopy or not. One of two 1404 01:22:38.920 --> 01:22:42.600 things is going to happen Major League Soccer is going 1405 01:22:42.640 --> 01:22:44.319 to announce at some point that they're going to go 1406 01:22:44.319 --> 01:22:50.239 to four dp's. That's theory number one. Theory number two 1407 01:22:50.760 --> 01:22:55.000 is that Luis Suarez, who is a high TAM and 1408 01:22:55.079 --> 01:22:57.319 right now Messi and friends, last time we checked out 1409 01:22:57.319 --> 01:23:00.000 a little bit more than three million in Garber bucks available, 1410 01:23:00.039 --> 01:23:03.720 they have three million in AM available. They signed Rodrigo 1411 01:23:03.760 --> 01:23:06.399 de Paul this year to a pro rated AM deal, 1412 01:23:07.479 --> 01:23:09.600 sign him as a you know, a high a high 1413 01:23:09.680 --> 01:23:13.880 salary AM player. Then for the remaining three years of 1414 01:23:13.960 --> 01:23:15.800 the deal he turns into a DP or he's a 1415 01:23:15.880 --> 01:23:18.159 high TAM and folks get bought down to where it's 1416 01:23:18.279 --> 01:23:20.800 navigable and what have you? 1417 01:23:20.840 --> 01:23:24.560 So or and choice three would be that both happen. 1418 01:23:25.600 --> 01:23:28.800 What do you think gets laid out with this Rodrigo 1419 01:23:28.880 --> 01:23:32.399 de Paul deal.

Thank got 1578 01:32:13.960 --> 01:32:17.439 Atlanta is a good financial shape where John Texter is 1579 01:32:17.479 --> 01:32:21.439 not screwing them over the barrel financially by refusing to 1580 01:32:21.479 --> 01:32:28.319 pay money. Yeah, and I look, if if the money 1581 01:32:28.359 --> 01:32:38.640 comes down the line here where where where letting the 1582 01:32:38.720 --> 01:32:42.159 Madrid pays the money to Texters Group, and if that 1583 01:32:42.239 --> 01:32:46.159 money isn't immediately in Atlanta's bank account, like, I don't 1584 01:32:46.199 --> 01:32:47.680 know what you do at that point? Do you go 1585 01:32:47.760 --> 01:32:50.520 back and like open up an entire new line of 1586 01:32:50.640 --> 01:32:53.960 appeals of hey, not only have we not been paid 1587 01:32:54.359 --> 01:32:56.840 they sold the guy they bought from us and didn't 1588 01:32:56.840 --> 01:33:00.279 pay for, made money on the deal and didn't pay 1589 01:33:00.359 --> 01:33:01.880 us anything that they owed. 1590 01:33:01.840 --> 01:33:04.479 But the larger question is where are they in the queue? 1591 01:33:04.520 --> 01:33:04.800 Though? 1592 01:33:05.479 --> 01:33:07.279 That yes, and that's that was gonna be the next 1593 01:33:07.319 --> 01:33:09.119 thing I was gonna ask, is you know where are 1594 01:33:09.199 --> 01:33:13.880 they in the queue? Because non zero chance. Look, there's 1595 01:33:13.920 --> 01:33:20.399 a non zero chance if if but a fog slash 1596 01:33:20.520 --> 01:33:25.720 Crystal Palace slash, they all slash. John Texture hasn't paid Atlanta, 1597 01:33:26.720 --> 01:33:28.720 non zero chance that there are other clubs they haven't 1598 01:33:28.760 --> 01:33:34.720 paid to, and some of those clubs might be first 1599 01:33:34.760 --> 01:33:38.359 in line. That's okay, because they might have had a 1600 01:33:38.520 --> 01:33:45.399 like a chronologically speaking, a going back in time longer complaint. Also, 1601 01:33:45.479 --> 01:33:49.159 they might literally need money to function. Mm hm, completely 1602 01:33:49.640 --> 01:33:54.439 a possibility there, dude. I have no idea. I have 1603 01:33:54.520 --> 01:33:57.479 no idea how to appeal like that. Doesn't just go no, 1604 01:33:57.520 --> 01:34:01.359 we've been over this, pay the money, yeah, but whatever. 1605 01:34:05.319 --> 01:34:10.439 I'm happy for Thiago though, you know, like Almada is 1606 01:34:10.479 --> 01:34:17.680 getting to live the dream now of playing h of 1607 01:34:17.840 --> 01:34:20.399 playing in Europe for one of the top clubs, one 1608 01:34:20.439 --> 01:34:26.359 of the most famous managers in Europe. And I'm happy. 1609 01:34:26.079 --> 01:34:26.960 For the kid. 1610 01:34:28.199 --> 01:34:30.520 But I also want my money. 1611 01:34:31.920 --> 01:34:32.840 I want my money. 1612 01:34:33.399 --> 01:34:38.399 Yeah, mm hmmm. So tell John Texter to make that 1613 01:34:38.520 --> 01:34:42.399 check out to any United and beat mm hmm. Get 1614 01:34:42.399 --> 01:34:45.920 it done. M hm. Also pay all the other people 1615 01:34:45.960 --> 01:34:47.640 who they may or may not owe money to. 1616 01:34:48.000 --> 01:34:48.439 Mm hmm. 1617 01:34:51.159 --> 01:34:53.520 It's a separating thing, though, because, yeah, I'm very happy 1618 01:34:53.520 --> 01:34:59.279 for Thiago because he deserves, he has played his way 1619 01:34:59.439 --> 01:35:02.680 to deserve being that kind of payday and that kind 1620 01:35:02.680 --> 01:35:05.840 of opportunity to live his dream. Good for him. I 1621 01:35:05.840 --> 01:35:08.920 don't want that to be lost in the bickering about 1622 01:35:08.920 --> 01:35:11.239 the money. Is still because John Textra and paint is 1623 01:35:11.319 --> 01:35:13.880 debts and pulling a low key Foster Gillette. 1624 01:35:14.119 --> 01:35:19.640 Yes, and Alex is absolutely true in his assessment of this. 1625 01:35:20.439 --> 01:35:22.760 You need to get the paper boy from Better Off 1626 01:35:22.840 --> 01:35:25.000 Dead to collect the that's two dollars. 1627 01:35:25.600 --> 01:35:26.840 I want my two dollars. 1628 01:35:26.920 --> 01:35:28.640 I need to get that drop. Thank you Alex for 1629 01:35:28.640 --> 01:35:34.000 reminding me about that. Just so folks know the total 1630 01:35:34.239 --> 01:35:39.760 revenue percentage and this this, this is. These are the 1631 01:35:39.840 --> 01:35:42.199 numbers that came out at the end of the calendar 1632 01:35:42.359 --> 01:35:49.600 year of twenty twenty four from Eagle. They had one 1633 01:35:49.680 --> 01:35:53.039 hundred and seventeen million dollars or pounds or whatever the 1634 01:35:53.319 --> 01:35:53.920 format is. 1635 01:35:53.960 --> 01:35:56.479 I think it's euros matters when you get to that much. 1636 01:35:56.640 --> 01:35:59.119 Yeah, one hundred and seventeen million euro, one hundred and 1637 01:35:59.119 --> 01:36:02.680 seventeen and a half million euro in total revenue. Then 1638 01:36:03.600 --> 01:36:07.279 you had personnel costs which were almost one hundred percent 1639 01:36:07.319 --> 01:36:12.600 of your revenue, ninety nine million euro in personnel costs. 1640 01:36:13.239 --> 01:36:14.720 But I mean a lot. I think a lot. I 1641 01:36:14.720 --> 01:36:19.479 think you'd find a lot of clubs run like that. 1642 01:36:20.600 --> 01:36:23.640 Ebitt Dah was was a net was a loss of 1643 01:36:23.720 --> 01:36:24.800 forty six million euro. 1644 01:36:25.359 --> 01:36:29.079 I think you would find a lot of clubs run 1645 01:36:29.279 --> 01:36:32.800 right along that. If they're making profit, it ain't much, 1646 01:36:33.359 --> 01:36:38.159 or they might be losing some money. Again, owning a 1647 01:36:38.199 --> 01:36:40.760 sports franchise is a long term investment. You don't own 1648 01:36:40.800 --> 01:36:43.239 a sports franchise to flip it in two or three years. 1649 01:36:43.279 --> 01:36:46.399 You own a sports franchise with the intention of owning 1650 01:36:46.439 --> 01:36:50.800 it for fifteen twenty years seeing the value appreciate substantially. 1651 01:36:52.119 --> 01:36:53.680 Go back and look at where Arthur Blank paved for 1652 01:36:53.680 --> 01:36:56.399 the Falcons back in the day versus what they're worth now. 1653 01:36:57.000 --> 01:36:59.680 Go back and look at what almost any of these 1654 01:37:00.119 --> 01:37:03.079 professional clubs are worth now versus what they were worth 1655 01:37:03.079 --> 01:37:05.279 twenty years ago. Yeah, you buy a club and you 1656 01:37:05.279 --> 01:37:06.920 hang on to it for fifteen twenty years. 1657 01:37:06.960 --> 01:37:07.720 Absolutely true. 1658 01:37:07.960 --> 01:37:08.079 Uh. 1659 01:37:08.199 --> 01:37:10.279 Trading players in the first six months of the last 1660 01:37:10.279 --> 01:37:14.960 fiscal year thirty four point seven million euro and that 1661 01:37:15.119 --> 01:37:19.039 is down window to window sixty three percent had to 1662 01:37:19.079 --> 01:37:22.399 do with first six months of the financial year selling 1663 01:37:22.479 --> 01:37:26.960 Jcobrien to Everton, selling Sarda Strasburg, Jeffino de Botafogo, Mama 1664 01:37:27.000 --> 01:37:29.880 Balde to Brest incentives worth two point two million euro. 1665 01:37:30.520 --> 01:37:33.119 By December of thirty one to twenty three they had 1666 01:37:33.199 --> 01:37:37.079 ninety four point nine barcolat psg Leucaba de Leipsig and 1667 01:37:37.119 --> 01:37:41.880 Fiver to Bournemouth. So that was say that was player acquisitions, 1668 01:37:41.960 --> 01:37:46.439 but first six months of the fiscal year last year, 1669 01:37:46.600 --> 01:37:50.479 ending New Year's Eve twenty twenty four, they operated at 1670 01:37:50.520 --> 01:37:53.239 a loss of one hundred and a minus one hundred 1671 01:37:53.239 --> 01:37:56.239 and seventeen million year million euros. 1672 01:37:56.239 --> 01:37:57.520 So that is that is an Eagle. 1673 01:37:57.600 --> 01:38:00.279 That is a press release put out March twenty seven 1674 01:38:00.359 --> 01:38:05.600 of this year. First half twenty twenty four results nevertheless 1675 01:38:05.600 --> 01:38:08.760 impacted by lower players sales activity over the first six 1676 01:38:08.800 --> 01:38:10.880 months of the financial year and changes in the scope 1677 01:38:10.920 --> 01:38:15.840 of consolidation following asset disposals of Leon Feminine, the Valet 1678 01:38:15.880 --> 01:38:20.079 Arena and Rain to Michelle Kan So Eagle Football Group 1679 01:38:20.079 --> 01:38:23.079 it's all. The document itself is public, it's on their website. 1680 01:38:23.119 --> 01:38:25.760 But anyway, that's the first half results. And then after 1681 01:38:25.800 --> 01:38:29.760 that in June they transferred Ryan Cherokee to Manchester City 1682 01:38:30.520 --> 01:38:33.079 and they transferred i mean sorry to Hellas Verona. The 1683 01:38:33.199 --> 01:38:40.760 Cherokee transfer alone is like eleventy billion dollars. The Cherokee 1684 01:38:40.760 --> 01:38:43.560 transfer alone forty two and a half million euros, six 1685 01:38:43.600 --> 01:38:46.720 million bonuses, added a fifteen percent bonus on any future 1686 01:38:46.760 --> 01:38:50.199 so a fifteen percent sellon. So the money is there 1687 01:38:50.199 --> 01:38:53.279 in the Ryan Cherokee transfer if they wanted to slide 1688 01:38:53.279 --> 01:38:53.960 that along too. 1689 01:38:55.399 --> 01:38:57.359 So that's that's where we are. 1690 01:38:57.439 --> 01:39:00.399 But the larger questions once again, and Alex is absolutely correct, 1691 01:39:00.560 --> 01:39:04.199 you need the paper boy. You got to figure out 1692 01:39:04.199 --> 01:39:06.840 where you are in the queue. Yeah, you're owed the money. 1693 01:39:07.359 --> 01:39:10.399 It is currently appealed. It is Eagles right to do that. 1694 01:39:11.039 --> 01:39:12.640 But it's to the point now where you need either 1695 01:39:12.680 --> 01:39:15.039 Judge Watn or Judge Hatchett and get this get this 1696 01:39:15.159 --> 01:39:19.520 issue done. We've been kind of drifting back and forth 1697 01:39:19.600 --> 01:39:23.079 Jared about tonight in Major League Soccer. We kind of 1698 01:39:23.239 --> 01:39:27.159 blew through SI. Yeah, it is Atlanta and Chicago. What's 1699 01:39:27.199 --> 01:39:27.640 on your mind? 1700 01:39:28.399 --> 01:39:32.520 Should have win the game? You won two straight at 1701 01:39:32.520 --> 01:39:35.880 home going back and I know that's I know that's 1702 01:39:35.880 --> 01:39:38.000 been a minute because he played five straight on the 1703 01:39:38.039 --> 01:39:41.800 road and three of them went about a sideways as 1704 01:39:41.880 --> 01:39:50.359 humanly possible. But you pulled two draws out of the 1705 01:39:50.479 --> 01:39:55.239 last two of those, which is better than losses. But 1706 01:39:55.760 --> 01:39:58.600 you you need you have to basically win all your 1707 01:39:58.600 --> 01:39:59.159 home games. 1708 01:39:59.680 --> 01:39:59.960 Mhm. 1709 01:40:00.119 --> 01:40:03.039 There's if you want to, if you want to not 1710 01:40:03.119 --> 01:40:05.439 even make the playoffs, but be in the conversation for 1711 01:40:05.600 --> 01:40:10.439 like in the hunt, because you blew a lot of 1712 01:40:10.439 --> 01:40:12.000 home games early in the season that you didn't win. 1713 01:40:15.399 --> 01:40:17.800 You should, you should, It would behoove you to win 1714 01:40:17.840 --> 01:40:21.399 this game. How you do that? That's a great question. 1715 01:40:21.920 --> 01:40:25.880 That's that's a great question. I think it seems like 1716 01:40:26.039 --> 01:40:28.319 the last I've heard, it seems like Brad New's anna'll 1717 01:40:28.319 --> 01:40:32.439 be back for tonight, although Jaden Hibbert made a great 1718 01:40:32.439 --> 01:40:39.399 impression for his future. Yes, I know we got we 1719 01:40:39.439 --> 01:40:45.359 got real intimate yesterday in our discussions about about who 1720 01:40:45.359 --> 01:40:47.720 should be coming back arsus who should not be coming 1721 01:40:47.720 --> 01:40:52.439 back for Atlanta next year. But as for the guys 1722 01:40:52.439 --> 01:40:55.119 you have there now, I'm I'm I still love the 1723 01:40:55.119 --> 01:40:59.920 belief of play the kids. Yeah, it sounds like I 1724 01:41:00.079 --> 01:41:04.199 think Derek Williams is getting back in practice. I'm interested 1725 01:41:04.199 --> 01:41:10.159 how you slot that back line together now because you've 1726 01:41:10.199 --> 01:41:12.039 given up one goal off of a set piece, And 1727 01:41:12.079 --> 01:41:19.920 granted DC and Toronto are not exactly offensive juggernauts, but 1728 01:41:20.039 --> 01:41:22.279 he gave up one goal off a set piece from 1729 01:41:22.359 --> 01:41:26.119 those and in one of those fraand Morales was arguably 1730 01:41:26.159 --> 01:41:29.439 your bann of the match. Does he go back to 1731 01:41:29.479 --> 01:41:32.960 the bench now? For Derek Williams, do you keep him 1732 01:41:32.960 --> 01:41:34.960 in there? But if you go three at the back. 1733 01:41:35.239 --> 01:41:36.880 When you were going three at the back and it 1734 01:41:37.000 --> 01:41:40.800 was working. Matt Edwards was playing as a right side 1735 01:41:40.840 --> 01:41:44.479 center back and basically had that damn thing on lock 1736 01:41:44.520 --> 01:41:46.680 that put he put that position in the Stanard recliner. 1737 01:41:49.159 --> 01:41:53.479 So do you go back to three at the back 1738 01:41:53.680 --> 01:41:57.319 and figure that out? Maybe Derek playing in the middle 1739 01:41:57.720 --> 01:42:00.960 kind of playing you know, tank commander, do you stick 1740 01:42:01.039 --> 01:42:03.720 with four? How do you play this? Because I don't know, 1741 01:42:04.800 --> 01:42:08.319 I don't know how you want to to line this up. 1742 01:42:08.600 --> 01:42:13.039 If you're Atlanta United against Chicago team that would lead goals, 1743 01:42:13.680 --> 01:42:16.119 which would be great if Atlanta had a functioning offense 1744 01:42:16.119 --> 01:42:22.279 despite spending all the money in in in the coffers, 1745 01:42:23.920 --> 01:42:26.720 it would be it would be great for you to 1746 01:42:26.720 --> 01:42:29.159 to put up three or four goals. And I think 1747 01:42:29.439 --> 01:42:35.399 Chicago will give you the opportunities, but you actually have 1748 01:42:35.479 --> 01:42:37.880 to take them. In Atlanta has not been consistently good 1749 01:42:37.920 --> 01:42:40.640 at taking them. 1750 01:42:41.000 --> 01:42:45.079 So it was you you're dealing with in Chicago. And 1751 01:42:45.119 --> 01:42:49.000 it looks like we might be getting Kieren Maguire on 1752 01:42:49.039 --> 01:42:51.079 the show next week to talk about economics. 1753 01:42:53.479 --> 01:42:53.760 Derek. 1754 01:42:53.840 --> 01:42:56.279 Not a hat, not not a pleasant thought from Derek 1755 01:42:56.319 --> 01:42:58.960 on the Magic eight Ball last time. 1756 01:42:59.680 --> 01:43:04.119 I'm I try. I try and be more. I try 1757 01:43:04.159 --> 01:43:06.520 and be leaning more to the optimistic side of things 1758 01:43:06.760 --> 01:43:08.720 while try and keeping it in the realm of realism 1759 01:43:08.760 --> 01:43:12.119 and trying to thread that need. And it's tricky sometimes, 1760 01:43:12.600 --> 01:43:17.279 But I don't blame people for feeling that way right 1761 01:43:17.319 --> 01:43:20.720 now because of what you have been given this year. Yeah, 1762 01:43:22.319 --> 01:43:26.560 doesn't mean it's gonna last that way forever. But when 1763 01:43:26.600 --> 01:43:32.319 you have spent the money that you've spent, and again 1764 01:43:32.399 --> 01:43:33.920 you give up one goal in the last two games 1765 01:43:34.119 --> 01:43:37.920 on the road, Like if you give up one goal 1766 01:43:38.840 --> 01:43:40.199 over one hundred and eighty minutes and it was a 1767 01:43:40.239 --> 01:43:42.119 set piece, and it's it's just a good it's a 1768 01:43:42.199 --> 01:43:44.600 night least when nicely works set piece, good delivery, good 1769 01:43:44.600 --> 01:43:50.279 screen action, free header ish happens. Yeah, you give up 1770 01:43:50.319 --> 01:43:51.920 one goal over one hundred eighty minutes on the road, 1771 01:43:53.000 --> 01:43:55.479 you have to win one of those games. You have 1772 01:43:55.560 --> 01:44:00.000 to You have to find a goal somewhere. You cannot 1773 01:43:59.800 --> 01:44:01.560 be in this league where it is hard to win 1774 01:44:01.600 --> 01:44:03.520 on the road. I know you've had this. I've had 1775 01:44:03.520 --> 01:44:05.159 this debate with plenty of people about you know, other 1776 01:44:05.159 --> 01:44:06.520 teams went on the road. I'm like, yes, they do. 1777 01:44:06.600 --> 01:44:08.520 It's it doesn't mean it's not easy. It doesn't mean 1778 01:44:08.560 --> 01:44:11.159 it's not hard. Just because other teams do it doesn't 1779 01:44:11.159 --> 01:44:13.800 make it easy. Atlanta had done it in the past. 1780 01:44:16.359 --> 01:44:20.039 But when you give up one goal in one hundred 1781 01:44:20.039 --> 01:44:23.199 and eighty minutes on the road against two teams that 1782 01:44:23.720 --> 01:44:26.920 are down there in the cellar with you, you have 1783 01:44:27.000 --> 01:44:28.960 to win at least one of those games, and you didn't. 1784 01:44:31.520 --> 01:44:36.720 You have to find goals tonight where you find them? 1785 01:44:36.960 --> 01:44:45.079 Yeah, great question, fantastic question, because I would like to say, well, yeah, 1786 01:44:45.079 --> 01:44:48.119 that does forty fifty billion dollars to sput on attack. 1787 01:44:50.520 --> 01:44:54.119 Should have come from there. It should, but it hasn't consistently, 1788 01:44:54.319 --> 01:44:55.319 and I don't know how you fix that. 1789 01:44:55.720 --> 01:44:58.560 Yeah, last time out, No, I was gonna say last 1790 01:44:58.600 --> 01:45:03.520 time out, Chicago initially allegedly lined up in a four 1791 01:45:03.640 --> 01:45:05.560 three three, but like I said, that's just staring at 1792 01:45:05.560 --> 01:45:08.880 a graphic because you know that, uh, things are gonna 1793 01:45:08.960 --> 01:45:13.000 change once the whistle blows. And it was a matchup 1794 01:45:14.039 --> 01:45:18.600 where San Diego went to town and Hugo Kuiper's obviously you're 1795 01:45:18.600 --> 01:45:22.600 sitting there and it's like, okay, it's Kuiper's, Zinkernagle Gudieras, 1796 01:45:23.359 --> 01:45:26.119 And it was a four to three to three last 1797 01:45:26.119 --> 01:45:30.159 time out, So it was Gutman, Elliott Rodgers and Boso 1798 01:45:30.239 --> 01:45:33.760 at the back, midfield Goudiera's Mauricio Pineda, who's been a 1799 01:45:33.800 --> 01:45:36.079 pain in the butt in the past, and o and 1800 01:45:36.319 --> 01:45:41.319 Ora Hell then three up top Bamba Kuiper's Zinkernagle. If 1801 01:45:41.319 --> 01:45:44.840 it is a four to three three, then are you 1802 01:45:45.039 --> 01:45:49.920 looking possibly at either you know, are you matching that 1803 01:45:50.000 --> 01:45:53.119 four three three or are you going three center backs 1804 01:45:53.439 --> 01:45:57.000 and trying to make sure that you've got folks that 1805 01:45:57.039 --> 01:46:01.159 are paying attention to Kuiper's and Zinkernagle or uh Bart 1806 01:46:01.239 --> 01:46:03.800 drifting back? How are you looking at this defensively with 1807 01:46:03.880 --> 01:46:05.840 this attack with all these different dudes coming. 1808 01:46:05.680 --> 01:46:05.960 At you. 1809 01:46:08.880 --> 01:46:13.079 For Atlanta, If if you have Derek Williams back and 1810 01:46:13.159 --> 01:46:18.079 if he's one hundred percent, I'm curious if you go 1811 01:46:18.279 --> 01:46:21.600 back to that five in the back, look, maybe stick 1812 01:46:21.640 --> 01:46:24.399 him in the middle play Luis bram I would imagine 1813 01:46:24.439 --> 01:46:30.800 on the left side, and then maybe stick Matt Edwards 1814 01:46:30.800 --> 01:46:32.079 on the right side of the three in the back, 1815 01:46:33.760 --> 01:46:37.319 because that what I thought worked well in that homestand 1816 01:46:37.880 --> 01:46:41.520 which was great for a minute there, Yeah, until you 1817 01:46:41.560 --> 01:46:45.079 went to to to New York and against Red Bulls 1818 01:46:45.079 --> 01:46:47.239 and then watched all the all of that burned down. 1819 01:46:49.439 --> 01:46:53.079 What was really fun there for a minute was Saba 1820 01:46:53.159 --> 01:46:55.520 playing as a wing back. Yeah, was not going to 1821 01:46:55.560 --> 01:46:58.000 give you covers a wing back, but he's going to 1822 01:46:58.079 --> 01:47:03.279 give you on predictability and borderline reckless decision making. Yes, 1823 01:47:04.319 --> 01:47:05.960 but he does it in the final third, which is 1824 01:47:05.960 --> 01:47:09.439 what I can live with. Again. My issue has been 1825 01:47:09.520 --> 01:47:13.600 so often that Ronnie Diler will talk about how Atlanta 1826 01:47:13.680 --> 01:47:18.359 United should be more more risk taking in the final third, 1827 01:47:18.439 --> 01:47:22.640 Like you're in the final third, drive it, somebody play 1828 01:47:22.800 --> 01:47:25.840 that risky through ball that maybe it comes off, maybe 1829 01:47:25.840 --> 01:47:28.239 it doesn't, but if it does, it's a game breaking ball. 1830 01:47:29.479 --> 01:47:34.800 Take those chances. If you're Atlanti United in the attacking third. Instead, 1831 01:47:34.840 --> 01:47:36.479 it feels like they're afraid to do it. And the 1832 01:47:36.520 --> 01:47:39.800 place where they seem to be taking risky your chances 1833 01:47:40.159 --> 01:47:44.520 is in the defending into the field. And it is breathtaking, 1834 01:47:44.600 --> 01:47:48.000 the mind boggling to me that when we see the 1835 01:47:48.039 --> 01:47:50.239 mistakes some of some of the mistakes they've made, like 1836 01:47:50.439 --> 01:47:53.439 Almoron in New York at Red bull Rato hell Almaron 1837 01:47:53.479 --> 01:47:55.880 against DC where Efra had to step in a block 1838 01:47:55.920 --> 01:47:59.279 a shot on goaleh where you know he drops way 1839 01:47:59.319 --> 01:48:01.920 back into the right backspot for some ungodly reason because 1840 01:48:01.960 --> 01:48:03.560 he's chasing the ball and he has to have the 1841 01:48:03.600 --> 01:48:05.960 ball and he's playing a square ball back to center 1842 01:48:06.039 --> 01:48:10.000 back and leaving it short multiple times, Like why is 1843 01:48:10.000 --> 01:48:12.960 that where you're taking risky plays? Why is that the 1844 01:48:12.960 --> 01:48:17.760 place you're making decisions that are not safe? And I 1845 01:48:17.760 --> 01:48:19.079 get it when you're playing out of the back, like 1846 01:48:19.119 --> 01:48:21.920 you are going to take risks, but the fact that 1847 01:48:21.920 --> 01:48:24.760 you're doing it there and basically almost refusing to do 1848 01:48:24.800 --> 01:48:29.880 it in the attacking half is it makes my brain hurt. 1849 01:48:30.600 --> 01:48:33.680 You would love if Saudi Arabia had not broken Jay 1850 01:48:33.720 --> 01:48:37.520 Fortune because you would love to have him here because 1851 01:48:37.560 --> 01:48:41.520 you have been like you have been mediocre in the midfield. 1852 01:48:42.720 --> 01:48:45.520 You you, DC is paying a DP way for a 1853 01:48:45.560 --> 01:48:48.000 guy in your midfield who has not been the difference 1854 01:48:48.039 --> 01:48:52.439 maker that you necessarily need him to be. Bartuctually, like 1855 01:48:52.520 --> 01:48:55.199 I said, has has answered the bell in the second 1856 01:48:55.199 --> 01:48:57.079 half of the second half of the first half of 1857 01:48:57.079 --> 01:48:59.920 the years whatever however you want to break it in. 1858 01:49:01.239 --> 01:49:05.439 When Ronnie Diala took the gloves off, Barsley seems to 1859 01:49:05.439 --> 01:49:09.399 have answered the bell but your midfield has not been 1860 01:49:10.920 --> 01:49:15.319 bossing things like you need it to. And so yeah, 1861 01:49:15.359 --> 01:49:16.720 we can talk about how you want to line up 1862 01:49:16.760 --> 01:49:18.720 that that back line all day long, but if you 1863 01:49:18.840 --> 01:49:22.760 are not going to be good enough in the midfield, 1864 01:49:24.359 --> 01:49:25.840 then you're going to get overrun. 1865 01:49:26.199 --> 01:49:26.359 Yea. 1866 01:49:26.880 --> 01:49:29.239 And whether or not you go that three or four 1867 01:49:29.279 --> 01:49:31.560 is can also depend on do you want to people 1868 01:49:31.640 --> 01:49:36.079 sitting in the midfield or one person sitting single double 1869 01:49:36.079 --> 01:49:39.560 pivot however you want to figure it out. However you 1870 01:49:39.600 --> 01:49:43.560 want to kind of flood that midfield and put Chicago 1871 01:49:43.840 --> 01:49:44.600 on a defensive. 1872 01:49:47.199 --> 01:49:52.479 Other matchups in Major League Soccer, you've got Charlotte, DC, Sincy, 1873 01:49:52.640 --> 01:49:55.399 Messi and friends. Messi and Friends. Still are they pulling 1874 01:49:55.439 --> 01:49:58.439 away a little bit as a favorite? It's still on 1875 01:49:58.479 --> 01:50:01.479 the plus side at tqu all, but their favorite Red 1876 01:50:01.479 --> 01:50:08.760 Bulls revs. Purple Team NYC, Philly, Montreal, Houston, Vancouver, Minnesota 1877 01:50:08.800 --> 01:50:11.800 hosting LAFC. Their favorite at home on the plus side, 1878 01:50:12.199 --> 01:50:15.279 Nashville and Crewe. Nashville is actually a minus side favorite. 1879 01:50:15.359 --> 01:50:19.800 Last time somebody was a favorite against Crewe was last 1880 01:50:19.840 --> 01:50:25.239 week against Cincy in Hell is reel and Crewe designed. 1881 01:50:25.159 --> 01:50:29.640 Since he just botched another two goal lead, Yeah, playoffs 1882 01:50:29.680 --> 01:50:30.479 and ish the bed. 1883 01:50:30.640 --> 01:50:32.000 Yeah. 1884 01:50:32.039 --> 01:50:36.119 So Crewe is a book. So get this tonight. And 1885 01:50:36.159 --> 01:50:40.399 the numbers have changed since the show started. Nashville is 1886 01:50:40.399 --> 01:50:43.159 a minus one oh two at home against Crewe. Crewe 1887 01:50:43.199 --> 01:50:47.560 is a plus two fifty on the road the draws 1888 01:50:47.600 --> 01:50:52.760 of plus two seventy five. They're riding the idea that 1889 01:50:52.840 --> 01:50:54.960 Sam Surge and honeymoot Tar gonna score a boatload of 1890 01:50:55.000 --> 01:50:57.279 goals tonight to get that minus one oh two. I 1891 01:50:57.279 --> 01:51:00.199 would lean Crew in that one. I legitimately would either 1892 01:51:00.239 --> 01:51:02.479 at the draw and at plus two seventy five or 1893 01:51:02.479 --> 01:51:04.439 the outright at plus two fifty. 1894 01:51:04.640 --> 01:51:07.279 Crew sitting in a fourth place, but like two points 1895 01:51:07.319 --> 01:51:09.119 off top of the East, and I feel like Crew 1896 01:51:09.119 --> 01:51:14.720 are slipping into that Seattle range because like the Seattle's 1897 01:51:14.720 --> 01:51:17.079 in fourth, but Seattle is like a fair number of 1898 01:51:17.119 --> 01:51:20.720 points off, like they're nine points off, ten points off 1899 01:51:20.760 --> 01:51:23.159 of San Diego. But I feel like they're slipping into 1900 01:51:23.159 --> 01:51:27.039 that Seattle thing. Where Like if I ask people associated 1901 01:51:27.359 --> 01:51:30.159 or fans of the crew, I'll hear about things like, ah, man, 1902 01:51:30.159 --> 01:51:31.880 we gotta watch out for this, Like we have this problem. 1903 01:51:31.920 --> 01:51:33.520 We have these problems. We have a B and C. 1904 01:51:34.079 --> 01:51:37.079 This is bad, like this could be better, blah blah blah. Bro, 1905 01:51:37.159 --> 01:51:39.239 you're sitting two points off the top of the table. 1906 01:51:39.399 --> 01:51:42.640 Seattle is the team that does this that like is 1907 01:51:42.800 --> 01:51:45.520 like wringing their hands about things and still sitting in 1908 01:51:45.560 --> 01:51:49.239 the top half of the playoff picture every year. The 1909 01:51:49.279 --> 01:51:51.319 problems you have are not the problems of others, and 1910 01:51:51.359 --> 01:51:53.359 I need you to understand. I need you appreciate that 1911 01:51:53.399 --> 01:51:56.359 the problems you have are minor compared to other teams problems. Yeah, 1912 01:51:56.359 --> 01:51:59.079 it could be so much worse for you. 1913 01:51:59.159 --> 01:51:59.760 It would be. 1914 01:51:59.760 --> 01:52:03.000 Saying Lewis, you could be the Galaxy, you could be Atlanta. Yes, 1915 01:52:03.680 --> 01:52:05.760 your problems are not real problems. 1916 01:52:06.319 --> 01:52:10.560 Yes, I do want to discuss it picks. 1917 01:52:10.760 --> 01:52:14.359 Yes, before you do, you have your Irish goodbye schedule 1918 01:52:14.399 --> 01:52:15.199 the next couple of minutes. 1919 01:52:15.279 --> 01:52:15.760 Yes, I do. 1920 01:52:15.960 --> 01:52:21.640 Okay, So before you go, I do want to I 1921 01:52:21.720 --> 01:52:27.840 do want to show the archive collection from Adidas. 1922 01:52:28.079 --> 01:52:30.359 That is going on with Major League Soccer right now. 1923 01:52:31.159 --> 01:52:33.920 And this is this is off of the Instagram account, 1924 01:52:34.000 --> 01:52:36.920 so it's got like movement and things like that. So 1925 01:52:37.239 --> 01:52:44.399 I'm staring at the jerseys. I love San Jose's. I 1926 01:52:44.439 --> 01:52:45.960 love the San Jose jersey. 1927 01:52:46.520 --> 01:52:49.359 You know what, I don't love having this moving sequence 1928 01:52:49.399 --> 01:52:52.039 here where the pictures keep changing where the where like 1929 01:52:52.159 --> 01:52:56.000 each frame on that that that's that grid of nine 1930 01:52:56.079 --> 01:52:59.000 keeps changing. So if you look at one, yeah, when 1931 01:52:59.000 --> 01:53:00.800 it's moving, if you look at one, like in the 1932 01:53:00.840 --> 01:53:03.079 middle was the Dallas Byern, but then it changes and 1933 01:53:03.119 --> 01:53:04.880 something else is in the middle, it pisses me off 1934 01:53:04.880 --> 01:53:05.359 to no wind. 1935 01:53:05.399 --> 01:53:07.600 Okay, So then I found I moved forward. So here 1936 01:53:07.600 --> 01:53:10.680 are the individuals. That's Minnesota, Minnesota. 1937 01:53:10.359 --> 01:53:11.600 It's a throwback. 1938 01:53:11.760 --> 01:53:15.000 Yeah, it's a throwback to the Kicks Jersey any as days, 1939 01:53:15.159 --> 01:53:17.359 all right, Rapids they went with the green, which was 1940 01:53:17.399 --> 01:53:18.000 a good play. 1941 01:53:18.600 --> 01:53:20.039 It is rapids man would try. 1942 01:53:20.199 --> 01:53:24.039 Yes, rapids Man with the green Charlotte. Do they deserve 1943 01:53:24.079 --> 01:53:24.640 an archive? 1944 01:53:28.159 --> 01:53:28.640 You're not old? 1945 01:53:28.800 --> 01:53:32.199 I mean we did the same thing with Tampa Bay Rays. 1946 01:53:32.279 --> 01:53:34.880 Like when Tampa Bay wears a throwback, that isn't the 1947 01:53:35.000 --> 01:53:39.479 nineteen ninety seven throwback. Yeah, that was white with rainbow 1948 01:53:39.560 --> 01:53:41.600 and the Manta ray on the front. 1949 01:53:41.920 --> 01:53:43.239 You know, the Manta ray was the best look. 1950 01:53:43.279 --> 01:53:45.439 I still have the golf shirt, the hard hat crew 1951 01:53:45.520 --> 01:53:48.520 jersey is always is always stellar. 1952 01:53:48.800 --> 01:53:51.359 The Orca for Seattle, Orca is. 1953 01:53:51.359 --> 01:53:53.920 A good throwback logo.

Uh, 1963 01:54:18.560 --> 01:54:20.399 I think you were correct. They should have gone with 1964 01:54:20.399 --> 01:54:21.760 the Nashville Diamonds. 1965 01:54:22.039 --> 01:54:23.520 I would have loved them too, And it might have 1966 01:54:23.600 --> 01:54:25.279 been a licensing thing. It might have It might have 1967 01:54:25.319 --> 01:54:28.319 been a choice. I like this logo by the way, 1968 01:54:28.359 --> 01:54:30.960 better yeah than the than the octagon logo, and I 1969 01:54:31.039 --> 01:54:33.119 forget it was one of the Nashville Riders brought that 1970 01:54:33.199 --> 01:54:37.439 up as well, And I agree completely the sound wave 1971 01:54:37.520 --> 01:54:41.439 logo from Nashville. I a hundred times over, loved that 1972 01:54:41.520 --> 01:54:43.920 better than their standard logo. And you, well, you want 1973 01:54:43.920 --> 01:54:46.920 to change the color scheme on this to match that 1974 01:54:46.920 --> 01:54:51.359 that gold and dark blue. I'm totally okay with that. 1975 01:54:51.680 --> 01:54:53.159 I so much prefer that logo. 1976 01:54:53.880 --> 01:54:57.279 The clash is fantastic. There is no parallel. This is 1977 01:54:57.279 --> 01:54:57.880 my number one. 1978 01:54:57.960 --> 01:54:59.920 No, this is this is number one. This is a 1979 01:55:00.720 --> 01:55:04.119 this is a walking trapper keeper and I love it absolutely. 1980 01:55:04.720 --> 01:55:08.520 And then the Revs with their finished with all of 1981 01:55:08.560 --> 01:55:12.119 the the zubaz Revs. Jersey is the other one. So 1982 01:55:12.800 --> 01:55:15.960 you can't you can't go wrong. You can't go wrong 1983 01:55:16.000 --> 01:55:18.920 with the Zubaz Revs. 1984 01:55:18.680 --> 01:55:21.560 The easy conversation to have is if it were Atlanta, 1985 01:55:21.600 --> 01:55:24.520 what would you do and you had so much to 1986 01:55:24.600 --> 01:55:27.279 draw on because you have the Chiefs back in the day, 1987 01:55:27.359 --> 01:55:30.079 you have the Apollos, you have the Atlanta Attack, you 1988 01:55:30.119 --> 01:55:33.520 have the silver Backs. You could have gone in a 1989 01:55:33.520 --> 01:55:35.479 lot of direction if you wanted to do one for Atlanta, 1990 01:55:35.520 --> 01:55:39.079 I would. I wish Atlanta would get one. That is 1991 01:55:39.159 --> 01:55:43.239 kind of that throwback look. That is paying tribute to 1992 01:55:43.279 --> 01:55:48.560 the former clubs that were here, because everything in the 1993 01:55:48.600 --> 01:55:51.199 past is a foundation for what you have now, even 1994 01:55:51.239 --> 01:55:53.279 if it is not a large part of the foundation, 1995 01:55:53.439 --> 01:55:55.840 it is still a part of that said foundation, as 1996 01:55:55.920 --> 01:55:57.840 these clubs will attest to and these people in those 1997 01:55:57.880 --> 01:55:59.960 communities will attest to who have been through the ring. 1998 01:56:00.920 --> 01:56:07.560 Yep, so we got that. I'm booking guests at the 1999 01:56:07.560 --> 01:56:09.159 same time that I'm talking to you.

In addition to all of this, 2013 01:56:46.640 --> 01:56:49.479 Willie Davis, head coach of North Carolina Courage You twenty 2014 01:56:49.520 --> 01:56:52.359 three's joining us tomorrow because they are in the finals 2015 01:56:52.439 --> 01:56:54.760 of the w League for the third year in a row. 2016 01:56:54.840 --> 01:56:58.800 And then Nino and Nico will discuss world transfers, Major 2017 01:56:58.880 --> 01:57:00.840 League socrawlet stuff in the Power Hour and Hour number 2018 01:57:00.880 --> 01:57:04.840 two Friday, Jan Hernandez chattanoogefci's women at nine fifteen.

Seattle, Colorado, 2022 01:57:15.920 --> 01:57:19.880 Lag and Austin Portland, RSL, San Diego, Toronto, San Jose 2023 01:57:20.000 --> 01:57:20.800 in Dallas. 2024 01:57:21.039 --> 01:57:22.920 San Diego. Toronto is gonna be a war crime. 2025 01:57:26.520 --> 01:57:28.319 Toronto is now at plus six fifty. 2026 01:57:28.359 --> 01:57:32.199 By the way, I'm not touching that. No, that's a 2027 01:57:32.199 --> 01:57:36.159 fun number. But yeah, Mike, San Diego has been better 2028 01:57:36.159 --> 01:57:38.079 than I ever expected they would be. Obviously they're believing 2029 01:57:38.079 --> 01:57:41.600 the blessed they Obviously they're better than you know expected. 2030 01:57:43.800 --> 01:57:46.560 I was not sure that that how that build would work, 2031 01:57:46.840 --> 01:57:48.880 but it had done the job because they're sitting on 2032 01:57:48.920 --> 01:57:52.439 forty two points, two points clear of Minnesota, who's second 2033 01:57:52.479 --> 01:57:54.720 in the West, and every nothing about my life makes 2034 01:57:54.760 --> 01:57:58.399 sense right now, And I'll tell you right now, I'm 2035 01:57:58.960 --> 01:58:01.079 I'm not a full believer in Minnesota. And it's not 2036 01:58:01.159 --> 01:58:03.560 to say that I think Minnesota is a bad team. 2037 01:58:03.600 --> 01:58:06.239 Minnesota clearly a good team. They know exactly what they're doing. 2038 01:58:06.359 --> 01:58:09.079 Eric Ramsey knows exactly what he's doing and he has 2039 01:58:09.119 --> 01:58:13.920 full buy in. My concern with Minnesota remains that when 2040 01:58:14.000 --> 01:58:16.880 you get to the playoffs and teams get more pragmatic 2041 01:58:16.880 --> 01:58:19.239 and kg I want to see what they do because 2042 01:58:19.279 --> 01:58:26.159 they thrive so much without the ball that if they 2043 01:58:26.279 --> 01:58:30.319 get in a situation with another team that basically is 2044 01:58:30.359 --> 01:58:34.560 that dares them to carry them carry the game. I 2045 01:58:34.640 --> 01:58:36.800 want to see how Minnesota does with it. Yeah. I 2046 01:58:36.840 --> 01:58:38.319 don't know how they'll do with it. I'm not going 2047 01:58:38.399 --> 01:58:41.039 to tell you they'll automatically lose. They might come out 2048 01:58:41.079 --> 01:58:45.600 and be just fine, But so often I've seen them 2049 01:58:45.640 --> 01:58:49.239 post these matches where it's a win, but it's like 2050 01:58:49.319 --> 01:58:51.680 thirty percent of the ball and it's just hard to 2051 01:58:51.720 --> 01:58:55.520 do in the playoffs. Yeah, it's kind of like it's 2052 01:58:55.600 --> 01:58:57.680 kind of like being that all offense, no defense game 2053 01:58:57.720 --> 01:58:59.680 in the NBA, and then you get to the playoffs 2054 01:58:59.720 --> 01:59:02.399 for team actually trial defense. Mm hmm, it's like, oh, 2055 01:59:02.399 --> 01:59:04.920 well see now it's kind of a different game. 2056 01:59:05.359 --> 01:59:05.560 Yeah. 2057 01:59:05.600 --> 01:59:09.600 Well, like when like when, like when All Caps made 2058 01:59:09.640 --> 01:59:13.520 their way through the regular season as an expansion team 2059 01:59:13.720 --> 01:59:16.600 and cleared through the West. It's great in the one off, 2060 01:59:16.640 --> 01:59:18.239 but then you get into a series and you get 2061 01:59:18.239 --> 01:59:22.560 found out and you get work and people can find workarounds, 2062 01:59:22.600 --> 01:59:24.800 and then you get bounced in a series and everybody 2063 01:59:24.840 --> 01:59:26.880 sits there and goes, well, what's wrong. You're great in 2064 01:59:26.920 --> 01:59:29.880 a one off situation, but then when people can adjust 2065 01:59:29.880 --> 01:59:31.880 to you, how do you adjust in turn? And that 2066 01:59:31.920 --> 01:59:33.920 makes that makes the issue, at least. 2067 01:59:33.720 --> 01:59:34.239 To me anyway. 2068 01:59:36.159 --> 01:59:40.600 Yeah, and it appears that Rodrigo de Paul, according to 2069 01:59:40.640 --> 01:59:43.279 says Luis Merlow, is gonna be heading. 2070 01:59:43.479 --> 01:59:47.760 Just announce it. Yeah, don announced the fourth DP. We 2071 01:59:47.840 --> 01:59:48.560 know you want to do it. 2072 01:59:48.760 --> 01:59:53.239 Fifteen Yeah, it's Gaston Duel. We mentioned gastone Jule said 2073 01:59:53.239 --> 01:59:53.720 it was going to be. 2074 01:59:53.720 --> 01:59:57.560 A four year deal, so probably a half comes in 2075 01:59:57.560 --> 02:00:01.239 in the window, half this year and then three after that. 2076 02:00:02.279 --> 02:00:03.800 There's no way. I don't know that there's a way 2077 02:00:03.840 --> 02:00:06.680 you get him without without it being a DP. So 2078 02:00:06.800 --> 02:00:10.880 either they're going to sell someone, buy someone down somehow, 2079 02:00:11.239 --> 02:00:13.600 or just announce a fourth DP and open things up 2080 02:00:13.640 --> 02:00:14.239 for everybody. 2081 02:00:14.479 --> 02:00:16.359 Yeah, just do it. 2082 02:00:16.640 --> 02:00:20.159 Yeah, fifteen million euro is what says Luis Marlow is 2083 02:00:20.199 --> 02:00:22.760 reporting plus add ons contract. 2084 02:00:22.239 --> 02:00:25.039 For four in a way. Hell, you're not dping that. Yeah, 2085 02:00:25.119 --> 02:00:28.920 there's no way out, but no seriously out a fourth DP. 2086 02:00:29.000 --> 02:00:30.399 Do you know much fun this window would be if 2087 02:00:30.399 --> 02:00:35.399 everyone gets a fourth DP like July seventeenth, Hey, everyone 2088 02:00:35.399 --> 02:00:38.560 gets a fourth designated player? And you would you would 2089 02:00:38.600 --> 02:00:42.039 do that, assuming that like teams have known about it, 2090 02:00:42.079 --> 02:00:44.359 like would have known if that were the case. 2091 02:00:44.159 --> 02:00:46.920 You're ready to pound, yeah at. 2092 02:00:46.720 --> 02:00:50.520 A fourth DP and watch this summer just go.
