done will be done tomorrow um helicopters are flying all over the shop but CH how are you today brother I'm buzzing man I'm going to be honest I get finally getting kzer over the line for me was is a huge huge signing look I know probably people will say that you know what we didn't get uh a DM yet or a center back positions that we probably needed addressing but for me we just signed arguably a player that's good enough that's going to be hopefully back to his best and become world class again uh and look we can only be happy man having a front six of the having a front six of that kylo just tells you that we've arguably got the best front six in World football arguably but how can we not be happy man Liverpool fans should be should be happy today in terms that we've got the keyer in yes there's still time left there's time to go and really and we're seeing links to verella now a as well so why not we we go and we go and make this happen tomorrow with verela boys and you know we go into the big game on on Sunday with the with our chests out heads up and we say Okay City Arsenal here we are we're ready to go uh I want to uh come coming back to kza J I know you've been I know you I think everyone in World football but obviously you have a strong affiliation with Italians you dated one back in the 90s um you're on fredero kza his dad could pay a bit couldn't he in the 90s enrio he was really really good I I actually really really liked his dad uh a brilliant footballer I think he he started off at sdor was at Fiorentina um a brilliant brilliant footballer a proper Striker and back then if those don't don't know Italian football was uh the the Pinnacle of European football it was the hardest league in the world it was the best league in the world and that was seen as the Premier League um so fair play to his dad look he we saw the goal that he scored at the Euros I actually watched that game live just showing you guys my age when when the K anfield in Euro 96 and um yeah look getting Federico over the lineman is we really have really have signed a number believable forward who fits slot system who fits Liverpool just the way he spoke about how how much he's wanted to come to Liverpool how you know he understood the history he understood the fans he understood that this club is about going and winning trophies and and you know and he's a winner and I think that's the one of the biggest things that I can say about him is I believe he's a winner and he's direct he's a he fits Liverpool and Liverpool fits him um and and and I've been crying out that we need to have Pace in this side yes I wanted Anthony Gordon one of the reasons why because he has electric Pace this guy has abundance of pace and people will will say that oh he he's lost a yard he hasn't lost a yard we've seen the numbers in terms of he's the fastest played in the one of the fastest players at Euro 9 sorry in in the recent Euros so what an unbelievable player that we've got if we can get him to 80% of how good he was before we have signed a world beater I want to come on to ker to you Jake um he was pretty much the pinup boy the star boy of Italy three four years ago he was playing for fantina and he was being linked with everyone uh they 80 million at the time there was talk of 80 million euros there really strong talk that Liverpool had actually entered discussions uh with Fiorentina for kesa ghost wins the Euros um they obviously beat England in the Euros manini is Italy he gets his move to Juventus which is kind of the stepping stone for every sort of Italian um growing up or that dream move to Juventus you know where you you're going to be fighting for titles you will be competing in the Champions League gets that move and then it kind of goes a bit sideways here gets a nasty ACL injury um it's taken him a bit of time to come back we know that with acl's uh with his age as well 26 it does tend to take some time to get back to your best two years the good thing is he hasn't lost his speed um his short spurts though they have slightly come slower than previous prior to ACL but his long distance where we've seen some of his goals where he runs for like 30 40 yards his speed has remained the same I think it's 35 to 36 kilm per hour so he's still one of the fastest Wingers um if we can call him that in the Italian League what do you make of this signing he's not here to be a stop Gap he's not here to be no one's second fiddle if that's what everyone thinks he's here to make his Mark and we have had some bad luck with Italians um very few and far between in general in the Premier League uh football era have Italians really you know we can talk about the batelli the zolas but you know we've had sort of Desa aqu aqualine that didn't do it you know what do you make of this signing are you excited and it's a no-brainer wasn't it it was a great opportunity and at that money it's it's pretty much a freebie isn't it in in the modern game yeah listen I mean it's it's going to be hard for somebody to put together a strong argument for why this is a poor signing if want me to be honest with you for the for the price tag and the CER player that we're getting um it's a very lowrisk high reward type of signing I think what a lot of people are forgetting is exactly what you touched on when you're dealing with an ACL injury more times than not you're dealing with a two-year recovery period and I don't mean recovery till you get back onto the pitch I'm talking about recovery until you get back to 100% of the player that you were prior to that injury um we can look at our very own Virgil um as somebody who tore his ACL and his first season back after the injury he looked a shell of his of his former self and it sparked many questions for people wondering if you know I thought J J I think his first season back he was actually really good I think he was fine it the season where we tried to go for the quad the unfortunate Thing For That season was he didn't get enough rest but I thought he was imperious again that season I think and this could be a delay it can happen um talking to a few people in the medical sort of trade and departments you can have like a delayed reaction I think his delayed reaction virgils and not sure he could have been loss of form was the season we finished outside of the Champions League a couple of seasons ago where fatigue because of this previous season the 2122 season where he played 53 games after a long layoff of ACL I believe it was that season the 2223 season where we saw the effects I don't think he was at his best the season after his his injury um but that's an argument for for another conversation regardless the point being is more times than not somebody isn't at their very best the first season back from an ACL injury um it usually is that second season where you start to see glimpses if not some a player returning to to full form um so as it pertains to kza in this situation we're starting to see glimpses of the player that he was prior to the ACL injury um for the price tag for the caliber player that we're getting it's a fantastic signing this is a player that I'm telling you guys right now the fans are going to absolutely love the very first moment this player hits the field for us um he is the epitome of exactly the type of Winger that slot is looking for somebody that can pick up the ball go at a Defender beat a Defender One V one on the wing um and produce whether it's a um whether it's a goal or an assist a chance creating action off of the wing and he he's exactly that type of player um we don't as as D mentioned we don't have a ton of pace in our forward line he um immediately puts Pace into the team which is needed um when you're dealing with Diaz and potentially Kessa we got two Wingers now on both sides of the field that can pick up the ball and go at a Defender um and that's what that's what the manager likes that's what slot wants in in his Wingers we don't have many other players in this team that are capable of doing that if any um I think it's a fantastic signing as I mentioned I think he's going to hit the ground running if I'm being honest with you for 10 million pounds it's impossible not to like this signing as you mentioned he's not here to play second field with anybody they're talking about him playing on the right wing which of course is Mo's position he's not g to be able to take that position away from him however as it pertains to all the other forwards on this team he's going to come in and and fight for a place whether that's on the left wing whether that's time on the right wing um as a substitute whatever the case might be he's going to find his place in his team and it's going to happen quickly so as it pertains to the rest of this these forwards on this team right now um the the kind of bar has been set they they see what's happening they know the depth that we have in attack and they're going to have to be on top of their game if they want to see playing time on the field so um we have a very very strong attack that's not the issue as everyone in the comments is discussing right now we have other needs that need to be addressed immediately if this team really really wants to contend if you're talking about a player that can come in and make an immediate impact no question in my mind we're going to get that from kesa I just want to come to this uh Point great points there Jake but from un Perfection so Cavalia for twice what we brought Kaza for Kaza is also apparently taking the same 81k wages here that he got in Ju and someone with experience at being really good worth it g the great trait about kza is look I'm a bit I'm G to be straightforward no no jokes on this sort of point no banter here I am a bit skeptical G whether he can ReDiscover that form pre ACL you're skeptical because of because of what because I am allowed to finish you can finish go ahead I I would like to know why you're skeptical thank you thank you um the the Italian league and the Premier League is a different K fish first and foremost the Premier League is a lot faster he is quick he has come back from his ACL not looking the same player um and again like I've said that can take time that could take this year you know he's I think he's his third real Year from his ACL where he could really go maybe he needed a move there was discussions yesterday I saw on a uh on another podcast uh great points they said that kza is made for the Premier League um he's more suited to the Premier League in the way that we play Fast edged football where in the Italian League it's a lot more slower Keen I want to come to you because a great trait on ker where I love uh the player is he's both footed but he's so suited to that right hand side because he loves cutting in and he's got a hell of a left foot as well as well as his right and the beauty of he is the beauty thing of he is where Elliot doesn't give us when he's played out the when he's played out on the wing sometimes we saw it against brenford he's got the ability to go outside naturally Salah doesn't like going out on the outside but kza he will torment you torment you until he gets the better of you on the outside isn't it he's a Relentless Winger is isn't he that's what you get with him he's a guy that will go at you at every opportunity you know you mentioned he's got two two really really good feet he's really his decision making is really good his XG in terms of assists even last season was like eight even though he got two or three that that proves to you that you know the the strikers at uve weren't good enough to put his chances away he's an unbelievable forward who's got every single attribute and look I'm I can't wait to see this lad play and I tweeted today saying This you know this guy hasn't come here to to make up the numbers you know he's come to take he hasn't come to make up the he's come to take over and that's exactly what I I see in kza and look this guy if he can get to anywhere near the level that he has already shown us in a and he's he's come back to a team that you know it's going through a bit of a transition under a negative manager who played him you know Prime predominantly as a like a two forward type of role uh he is made for slot that Wingers the way we play with our Wingers one-on-one this guy is going to hurt every sing team that he plays against he's got the pace he's got the trickery he's got the knowhow he's got the nouse and you mentioned them two both feet he's and he's he's got a sweet left foot on him he can hit the ball if in both angles he's good enough to play left or right I mentioned yesterday don't be surprised he plays that good and he takes over the left hand side you I know he's com over to play on the Salah side but don't be surprised he goes he plays that good he takes over the left hand side because he is that good of a footballer and you can just imagine you mentioned Harvey Elliot and when Harvey Elliott comes on with 20 minutes to go um on on that left hand side you know for Salah it sly sort of changes the dynamic now you've got a player that's going to come in who's going to cause absolute Mayhem to any left left-sided fullback because he's just going to go atam atam just imagine a fully fit K are coming on with 20 minutes to go against these English fullbacks he's going to cause Havoc he really is and you know we've seen our performances how they've differed from the first half to the second half we've been Relentless in the second half this season so far so look we can only really go by what we think right now the ceiling is really really high he will come in and show how good he is I have no doubts that this guy I'm I really don't have any dos I think this guy is going to bang and we are going to see uh we're going to look back in two years time and think this guy was probably one of the best signings in the club's history in terms of when you look at the fee when you look at how good he is and what how what his ceiling is is going to be for 10 million quid you just simply can't go wrong I I agree with you 100% so my question remains why do you think that he's not going to hit the ground running this is fori he just all based on a lot of the Italians that have come over in recent years Jake that haven't hit the ground running um that taken time aqualani you know El pre when he signed from uh Roma we thought you know what this guy's G to be just a little bit better than aqualani because he can move around the pitch you know he's been dubbed this sort of totty uh D Roi hybrid he came had injuries didn't settle batelli although it was a wild signing from us back then everyone was ecstatic when he signed um guys we are going to address the Vera I am just waiting for a message from a very reliable source at the club who will be giving me a message but I am going to address the verela talk uh s is in the comments uh petulent little kid uh we will come back to that soon s don't uh troll please I will Buck you Bashi says yes the boys 320 people watching only 5 likes come on guys show your love to the best Liverpool content around smash the like button thank you so much uh think my other phone is bashing off guys we will we we will release some news let's see what happens um back to that question Jake I am a bit skeptical because look he was a brilliant player before the ACL he was worth 6070 million and now you know he's he's worth 10 million it's it's what is it lowrisk high rewards kind of signing I hope it works I want it to work has he got it in to work 100% he's got all the attributes slot with a bit of development a bit of coaching um and like people have said in previous podcast he's more suited he's more suited in the comments hold on guys hold on I have got got a phone call hold on hello hello hello John renes put the phone down on him on on this is is absolutely stupid hold on hold on hello I agree with Ashman I'm sorry I'm with put yourself on mute yeah um I'm actually with Ash you know in terms of you know have you mentioned all the players that that have played Liverpool Jake none of them have been Liverpool standard really you look at the likes of desna now aqualani was probably the only one I thought you know what because I really liked when I was actually really happy when we signed a thinking what Alonzo replacement might really do it but the rest of them were never to that sort of level this kid is the best of argument it's it's a it's a absolutely lazy argument that no no Ash says Ash says sorry I will address what happened Abby think of Deo Zola RAV de ravenet was one season Wonder Middlesboro left Danya good Shout good player Zola was incredible Deo Carboni Bonito Carboni was a good player vi vi wasn't he didn't set the worlder light at Chelsea I know he towards gb's career look those players You' mentioned they were the 90s players the modern players that have come through post you know 2000 or between the period of 2010 to 2023 Italians don't travel well they do like staying at home there's no there's no denying that but player who is probably more suited yes because he's quick because he's pacy because he likes the game uh fastpaced it is probably more suited that he will come in yes Jake look don't get me wrong I want it to work I think this I I always loved the concerns then I would agree with you but you don't so I'm just going to assume that he's gonna hit the ground running no no I hope he does I really hope he does I hope he can play on the left I hope if Diaz ain't performing he can come on the left he can go on the right I think there's another position he can play um it's GNA be a wild R not as wild as your shouts uh jakeob about having zos as left back I can see ker doing that a BOS L Ro through the middle he does like picking up the ball from Deep I've seen it for Italy I've seen it with fantina not so much at Juventus he can pick up the ball from deep I can see him do that little roll in behind the front three but no no sorry sorry I just I just seen s It's Kind CH told me K was better than Messi and S told me Arsenal was going to win the league last season no comment he told me they were winning champions league as well G you were right it was actually as him on the phone um but he wasn't speaking I don't know why um his interview though chin uh his interview his video interview um look very excitable didn't he he wants to be here there's a bit of a passionate desire to succeed in England um from the playing Journey from having his wife uh playing that you never walk alone on his iTune uh playlist he he desperately wants to succeed he wants to prove I think there's a lot of critics a lot of critics uh back home in Italy I think but he does want to prove a lot of people wrong and like I said and like Jake reiterate he's not here to play second fiddle 100% he he gets it and and that's the key you get certain players that want to you just just I've never seen a massive smile on the the way he was holding the shirt and looking at it with a massive beaming smile just you know he really wants to come here and he really wanted to be here and that's the that's a massive massive Plus for us because you know sometimes you get players that will come you think they might come for the money you think they might come for whatever other reasons but the way he he came across today he was was dying to come here he was dying to be here he mentioned you know my when I told my dad that Liverpool were in for for me my dad just said look Get It Go that club is made for you go get out there so he just goes to show that this he wants us we want him it is a match sort of made in heaven and honestly guys we this guy will prove how good he is his interview and and just everything about today and about K what is there not to love about him um from what we've seen so far and honest I just can't wait for the lad to get started if cuz if he start get to see him on Sunday even if it's just for three honestly just for even if on Sunday imagine being in the end he comes on and gives us 5 minutes just imagine that that and just imagine how he would turn up in that game for just 10 minutes what he would do for that in that 10 minutes he would run his socks off to do whatever he could and just I don't want to imagine if he scored what I do but anyway yeah that's what another you don't want to know what you would do definely hope it doesn't invol pulling your pants down but H man did you did you get a chance to see his uh interview what did you think the way he came across what were your thoughts if I'm being a 100% honest with you I don't put too much stock into into these interviews um obviously it's it's better to have a player that's smiling and that's appreciative to be here but at the end of the day nobody remembers these interviews is whether this guy's going to come in and bang or he's not going to bang it is what he's going to be remembered by I mean klopp said it absolute best I don't remember the exact quotee that he gave but the end of day basically doesn't matter what you think of him when he when he enters is what you think of him when he leaves and the same goes true for for CSA um so I don't put any stock into these interviews he's happy to be here that's wonderful I just hope he he could play in the Premier League and I think he can but he's got to prove it so we're gonna find out quickly J there's another um people want to mention it and I think that's enough for kza welcome to liol football club hopefully he gets to start or he gets to come on at Old Trafford gets some minutes um in a good situation with winning and give him a 10 15 minute run out and then let's see where it goes from there but look that's quite the six isn't it team gakpo Diaz Nunes J Salah fedo kza can we keep all six happy why not there's there's there's more than enough games to go around uh you saw the Champions League format today you saw the the the the fixtures that have come out you know be there's there's League Cup games there's FA Cup games we and we've always we've seen over the last few years Liverpool at do there's a tendency that we do pick up injuries um to our players especially in the forward line jot with the lights of jotter even Salah picked up an injury last season um and and even and dar so look we there's going to be the times where people are going to drop off the form all that type of stuff it just gives you every single forward there's no room for error now every single position in that front line has two players is good enough to start you look at the right hand side the right hand side Salah was the only player good enough to play in that position before nobody else was even good enough nobody was half as good enough to play there not saying that salah's not going to turn it on this season but just having another person there a player that's good enough to come in and challenge you know home hope look in any position if another player comes in you you increase 10 you know five 10% you want to give it a bit more because you know your position might be on the line but look we can only be happy with what's what we've got the all six that's a slot problem not my problem and your problem AI he can deal with them he wanted them they've got we've got him in now he can deal with it but for a Liverpool AI what a front six to have man now you know we heard over about we had an unbelievable five we had everything in our five in terms of our attackers imagine adding a player like or somebody saying Piers for [ __ ] sake I just shut down the's rumors anyway right we're looking at um what's his name J whaty the guys lost me now Bry James P man you set me set me off anyway the I was mentioning kza a fra 6 something in terms of a crazy CRA somebody that had crazy crazy PA and this is what Kaza has abundance of and look I honestly can't wait for um for the for him to start and and really really go for it but in terms of a look I haven't really come to you I know look you're a big fan of you're a big fan of kzer as well and especially what what do you think in terms of the the front front five and six you're always asking the questions but you must be like over the moon in terms of what we have up there right now it's that word isn't it embarrassment or riches isn't it that we have that that six I think in World football name me a better six than that name me a better you know gako who's got a point to prove Darwin Nunes who will be itching you know he's got a point to prove Diaz's got a point to prove Salah Salah he wants to prove to people that at 32 he ain't slowing down J wants to have a in injury fee season um this season he wants to um be clear and score goals centrally and then you've got Kaza who's got another point to prove we've got six hungry forwards Lions um who got a point to prove and I think SLO he will rotate them he will rotate them correctly he he'll rotate them as in fit as in fit of uh game day with Champions League we'll talk about that draw as well uh caribo cup West Ham at home uh the FA Cup once that goes into when that comes into play in January and the league he will rotate that six um very well I think there's goals in abundance in all six we can make changes we're struggling for a goal each forward has different attributes to one another J as your fox in the Box Nunes if you need a bit of chaos standing up against the Defenders you've got him you've got Kaza who can go left or right can go on the left and go on the right if Diaz or G on the left are not working you've got Diaz who's who's a bag of tricks who just need to put consistent numbers up and then you've got the likes of you know Kaza coming in you know you've got a six there that they will Terror terrorized the best of the best uh Jee that Real Madrid game at home it will be absolutely brilliant to see um who he goes with because look we're a match for anybody I know some people have already sort of dismissed us against Madrid in the first game of the champions league but we will come onto that draw but I think it's it's an area that we don't need to worry about touch wood over the next sort of two three years um Midfield however is an issue we're going to come swiftly to that there's been a lot of talk about Alan verel this evening and the latest that I have is we know what the release Clause is it's about 70 million euros now it's up to Liverpool to pay it uh all in one go will they do it I'm not too sure uh I did speak two three weeks ago that there were slight inquiries over fa Fabian Ruiz that was an initial loan that's been now moted I don't think there'll be a deal there but with Alan verela let's see what happens tomorrow I do believe we will get someone in I do believe that is he the right is he another right fit for you sir um Jean because I'm not solding verel as in he's not the slot type of player that we want we know what slot wanted we know he wanted I think he fits man I think he fits I think he fits Liverpool I think the way from what I've seen of him I think he does fit that does he improve to the next level is he a zubba mendi type of signing Maybe not maybe a slightly bracket law but the thing with me is I I just look I'm more that if graen B gets injured do we have enough there we don't have that so you definitely need somebody good enough because if once something goes wrong then what do you do we can't rely on a player that's just played three and a half games in a position right I'm coming the the the the preseason games as well three and a half games in a position in a new position for him and then for him to play there then expect him to play 30 40 games it just doesn't make sense it just doesn't sit right with me and I don't think it ever will but I'm happily give him a chance to to to prove me wrong but at least have something there at least have a backup in case something goes wrong we've seen grain Birch has has picked up um injuries in the past he picked up a couple last year and the last thing we want is us to be sat year left short again and I know people been know Alan verella I know somebody's just I think people message saying that oh James Pierce has shut it down all that type of stuff but James Pierce did say they we're not after that goalkeeper um Let me clarify that just not to defend Pierce but what Pierce said to be precise is we're not getting keeper this season was were the exact words that he used so in his defense the keeper is not coming in this season so to use that as an argument for why he could be wrong I think is a weak argument not to say he's wrong on verela or not but people are are if it said something like we're not going to get him a goalkeeper it was just weird that you would say this season when the no the noise of before that Jake was we're not getting him for this season anyway if the noise was if the noise was of that well you know what we're getting the keeper but he's coming next season but then he Tweets we're not getting one this season we we all know we're not going to get one this season we already knew he's going to be for the season after anyway so what's the point tweeting that you're not going to game for this season we already know that I don't know if that news was out at that point time or not I don't I don't remember the timeline just want to read out three comments that I did start one was from Zack breaking L want to make a move and signed Alan verel but couldn't FC portter declared his him non-transferable in this market that's from C Merlo another one from C Robinson thank you for tuning in L have made a formal offer to Porter for Alan verella the First Communication to find out his situation had already been made in April the Argentine Duo is coming in the red um rer that was he didn't have a source uh Roger source is probably mine Roger kle LFC have made a formal offer to Porter for Alan Bella the First Communication to find out his situation had already been made in April from Louie fros um I think it's really good Italian now I'm very fluent in Italian J come on uh I think it's going to be Mayhem in the next 24 hours uh gentlemen I really think if we're going to see all sorts popping up do I think we can get Alan verel yes Will Hughes like Muhammad naid has said will he box it off I'm not sure he's saying that he will box it off overnight let's see um sa ha has said James P declined look James whiz I respect him a lot he's been on our channel uh many a time but you know I just think we should see what's happening I think this club no one knew about Fredo k kza a few days ago including myself and I'm the biggest itk Cher Cher by the way that that's out there on social media right no one had a clue okay so let's see what happens anyone that does think they have got glue they're [ __ ] off their Rock let me tell you um guys swiftly moving on now a little bit to the Champions League draw Jake I'm gonna come to you I have it uh I'm not sure if this is the order that they will uh play in but just let you know we have Real Madrid at home leig away Bayer leusen at home Lan away Le at home PSV away bolognia at home and jerona away I think that's a fantastic draw I don't know what you even call it is it a group that we're in even I find those fixures fascinating I think the last five Milan Lil PSV bologna Jona I think we'll get the better of them the tricky ones obviously Real Madrid at home which we haven't overcome in the last s five six years um under clot but under slot it may be different Li Zig all is a great tie seeing the array of talent that Marco Ros is developing out there um if he still the man actually could be wrong with that and then obviously jabby Alonzo the Romantic tie isn't it jabby coming home for lusen what did you make of the draw you see us comfortably going through um and explain to me the format because I think you're more educated on the format than I am I'll try I'll try I can't I can't guarantee that I'm I'm 100% familiar with it but I'll try first and foremost let me say that the actual draw itself while you're sitting there watching I if you guys are actually watching but they pick a team from pot one then you find out you know which team that is and then Ronaldo's sitting there he just hits the little button and then the entire draw for that club comes out for me I thought it was absolutely fantastic I thought it was incredible drama I thought it was really entertaining the first time I saw I think city was the first team to get selected when the button was hit and all the teams came up on the screen I was in shock I had no idea what to expect it's obviously the first time we've seen it I think they did a great job um with the the new format of the actual draw I thought that was really really entertaining as far as the draw that we received um the entire time I was hoping we were GNA get Madrid I didn't care if it was home I didn't care if it was away once I saw that we got Madrid I was over the moon um I'm with you I think the draw that we got was absolutely fantastic and I thought so because we're playing some mouthwatering fixtures not only we're getting Madrid as you mentioned we're getting Milan away an opportunity for us to go to sanero that's incredible I've been there already um hope to go again we're getting lever crusen at home I don't even have to talk about how juicy that fixture is um and then we got leig away so for me the draw that we got from all of the teams in the entire uh Champions League I thought we got the best the best draw and I'm not talking about the best draw as far as the easiest because it's definitely not the easiest it's the best draw in my opinion in regards to the most entertaining fixtures listen if you ask me our team is strong we don't have to be worried about any of these teams in World football I'm not afraid of Madrid at home I'm not sitting here guaranteeing that we're going to beat them but I'm not afraid of them I'm not afraid of going to the sunzo I'm not afraid of Leverkusen Leverkusen coming to to anfield so while we do have one of the most difficult list of fixtures in my opinion it's the best that we could have gotten because I want to see this team play against the best teams in Europe because that's how confident I am in this squad um and our manager so for us to finish in the top eight um I think it's going to be a challenge not sitting here saying that we're not going to finish in the top eight but even if we don't finish in the top eight the way that it works is teams that are 9 through 24 it's one table there are no groups teams that finish 9 through 24 enter a playoff a head-to-head playoff I'm confident that even if we were to finish outside of the top eight which I don't think will happen but if it does happen we're gonna go through at a bare minimum is it one B table then it's one table one table top eight advance to the uh round of 16 25 through the rest of the table I don't even remember many teams are in there 36 or whatever it is are eliminated and 9 through 24 uh I don't know how it's set up it's probably a draw if I'm not mistaken I don't know exactly but 9 through 24 there's a head-to-head playoff for the remaining eight teams to get go into the The Knockout stage so I don't think we have to worry about not making Into The Knockout stage making into the top eight with this fixture list might be difficult I think we should still be able to make the top eight but even if we don't I'm confident in the head-to-head playoff we'll beat any of the teams that we're going to be potentially matched up against I'm very happy with this list of pictures that we got I think we comfortably make the top eight Jak comfortably it's possible absolutely I I wouldn't I wouldn't be surprised one bit I'm just saying worst case scenario if we finish nine through 15 or whatever it is I'm not worried about playing somebody head tohe Gina it's that uh old foe of ours Real Madrid um some already writing us off first game be pretty stupid to write us off it's a home tie at anfield plenty to prove not the first game just to be clear come out on Saturday Saturday my apology my apology that's why you good at this kind of we you should stick to knowledge football knowledge okay none of this outtake or intakes whatever um CH Real Madrid that's the game that everyone is looking forward to and jabby alono lusin but Real Madrid first and foremost yeah look he one needs to get over the line doesn't it yeah look at Real Madrid we know is there most an unbelievable football club one of probably the biggest club in the world after Liverpool and you know that's you got to give their dues they they've proven over many many years that there's if there's a li love affair with the European Cup more than poool is probably them uh you know they're an unbelievable side they've got an unbelievable team and to be fair look they've they've had the better of us over the last few few occasions you know I think we should have beat him in the Champions League final last time but we didn't they managed to do get another one over us but this is another tie we we going there confident so many of the players that were there last time there's they're a different sort of side anybody that R Liverpool off against um playing at unfield against any side in Europe has lost the plot that's just the way it is as the LI of Messi bar Barcelona the greatest teams that have come here in the past they've come here they've been turned over because if there's one side that can turn it up on a European night is Liverpool and to to give up and you know throw your the towel in before uh the games even started yeah say oh they're going to smash us and they're going to beat us you know you don't understand the you don't understand Liverpool Football Club you don't understand what unfield is about on a European night and you don't understand the history of this football club because we do the unthinkable many and many of times we are look we are getting W you know there there's comments we are getting whacked good luck to you mate you might be getting wacked but we ain't getting whacked we will go there confident we'll we'll show them the respect that they deserve but this is unfield and we will go again anyway in terms of the other ties uh I'm really really looking forward to lles in at home I I think he'll be a brilliant brilliant tie you know they've been they're my tip to winner yeah I know I remember you said that I remember you saying so wi the Champions League yeah yeah he he tipped him to win why is there is there a problem there there's aive problem they have no chance to win this tournament let's see let's see so I'm look I'm in terms of lus that will be you know a really good type but look the rest of them man we we go in it's the Champions League we go confident we we expect to win every single game and and why not you know Liverpool Football Club is Europe where to work at a completely different K of fish and and I'm I'm I'm really happy with the draw as well you know we've got some really really you know as the Sano away that'll be another experience for for the lads to go to the Sano again obviously with I'm sure you know there's not many many times left that Liverpool will be able to to travel to that iconic Stadium because I think I'm sure they they're moving away though it's going to get knocked down so it'll be another chance to go to the sanso um but I'm really really happy with the draw and and the thing and we go we go again yeah no I think the Real Madrid I think lusen I think the leig tie is a good one uh for me I think that's going to be an exciting TI the talents that are coming throughout there you know Chavis Simons a player of interest um you know they've just going through a little revamp with Almo going to Barcelona the Leo PSV you know PSV is a household name always been in the Champions League you know from the Dutch League exciting team young I think they won the league last season ahead of slot fod Le another you know batch in uh Club in France that produces youngsters um you know edin Hazard uh had that conversation that is that little game home or away Li game I think is a away I think it's that'll be a good away game man that'll be actually I don't know if that's a way or not I don't remember that game is it's at home it's at home that little game and then Jona you know uh question sorry see yeah yeah yeah that's what that's why I said you know and bologna who I won't be the same without Thiago M and they you know obviously a few players have left bolognia K Fury Joshua xery so let's see how bologna F but that's a good TR Milano is that romantic tie you know I know we beat them a couple of seasons ago wasn't it um 21 away and home the home game was really good you know they gave us a lot of trouble in the home tide but um no it's a good draw Gina 24 hours to go and this Mayhem is over then it's back to calmness Back to Football well we've got blood International break but Back to Football we we've got money un night yeah no no exactly once the um United game is over then we got the international break but this window I like you know before many years ago I didn't like that we couldn't buy players from September till you know January and then wait till January till May you know I like back in the day where it was you know you could buy whoever you want midseason throughout the season whatnot but it's needed isn't it this break is needed because it's you know the itks the chances the absolute bollocks that people are spouting um and then the clubs as well you know I don't think they want to be involved throughout the year negotiating should be glad that you know we should be glad have that you know if we don't have this to content with the whole year round because they' send me bonkers mate be honest it send everybody Bonkers um and you know what now at least it's done we've gone the 24 hours this time tomorrow it'll be done and you know let's let's move on from it I guess I I just hope that we can do some sort of business a in the next day too sorry in the next day if we can get one more in it just gives you that huge huge boost going into that United game uh especially with ker to you know what maybe are we are slightly short but uh you know it'll be good I think we'll still be good enough to challenge for the tile if we bring one more in um I still I still think we'll be there there about if we get if the look is on our side but now if we don't bring anybody in AI we need to look if you and then by that I mean no injuries and all that type of stuff but if we do bring one more in I think we're good to go you know I think you know what we'll be like okay man you're the ones that we chasing me when we're ready to chase I don't I don't mention you team because they're not the they're not the ones that need we need to chase just the one Jake back to you um some solid points is it imperative that we make that one more signing in that Midfield area is that the most crucial area that we've just got to address by tomorrow is it the most crucial area I mean you can make an argument that Midfield Andor Center back SL left back you can make an argument either way but I do think that it's crucial that we get another another player in whether it's in the Midfield or or Center back left back we're always talking about how we're constantly left short going into into a season um the depth in Midfield isn't good I don't have confidence in in Curtis Jones um I don't know if that's um if everybody necessarily agrees with that I know that's a a Hot Topic if you will but I'm not confident in him playing as a backup six or as a backup to mallister on the left side of the Midfield so when I take that into consideration the only real backup that I have any confidence in is is Harvey Elliott and that's on the right side so obviously macka can play a six if if need be um nobody wants that to happen but if if it has to happen then he can do that I don't know who can back up meca in that in that left-sided Midfield role because I don't have any confidence at all in in Curtis Jones and we haven't seen a very good version of him in the very very very limited time that we've seen him in this system he hasn't been impressive in my opinion well he he starts to show he start the previous years he started to show momentum soon as he shows momentum and he chips in with some goals good positionally pressing he gets that injury that's what we need to that's hopefully that gets eliminated this season I mean he started off the season with an injury already so that hasn't helped matters but I don't think he can play the sixth role Jake he has played it in the under 19s and under 21s when they won the uh European championships but for Liverpool Football Club we need more than that you know Cur Jones's best work is done in eight not in that six maybe um I mean what I what I think is very telling is that slot gave him the first opportunity to play um in in that sixth position in preseason and he didn't impress enough and even before he was injured he lost he lost that role so I'm not sure what the manager thinks of him at this point because he's moved him out of that position he's moved him into that left-sided Midfield role and we haven't seen a lot of him there um because of this injury so I'm not sure he has the confidence of the manager he definitely doesn't have my confidence not that that means anything um but to answer your question I'll take any signing at this point to strengthen us because we have ho in Midfield I'm okay with going into wasn't any signing no no but Jake wasn't any signing you can't say any signing what's any okay say ber doesn't happen who's next I don't know who's next but I'll think any depth in the Midfield it doesn't even have to be a starter I'm fine which I've mentioned many many times here would you be happy with t so then you happy with Tyler M staying then if you want if you just want depth and you said any that word any then you're happy with Tyler Morton staying there I and I probably would be if the club didn't show a desire to get rid of him I think is is telling the club has shown that they're willing to let him go which means that they don't think he fits whether he stays or not is a different story um because if you don't meet their asking price on a player then they've shown that they won't sell him they're not just going to sell somebody just to sell him you know even if they lose value on the player so I think them hanging on to him really doesn't say much of anything because I don't think that the manager or the club thinks he fits here so um no I don't necessarily think that that works but what I'm trying to say is when I mean anything is it doesn't necessarily have to be a player that walks in and walks into the starting 11 that's what I'm saying when I when I mean anything a lot of people are in in the comments on this show talking about they want a Wharton or they want a Varela or you know a 50 60 70 m a Bruno an 80 million pound player that's going to come in here and walk into the starting 11 I'm okay with grab starting there what I do want is some depth whether it's at the sixth position or on the left side in Midfield position because I don't as I keep saying I don't have any confidence in Curtis Jones or another signing that I would be okay with is somebody to take Robertson's position in the starting 11 at the left back position I would like somebody much more defensive oriented in that role to solidify our back line um so do I think we're going to get business done if I'm being honest with you I don't think so um but I would like for us to do business of course whether that's at left back or in the Midfield Gina uh Jake is alluding to a defender or a midfielder tomorrow I'll be honest I can live with uh without a Defender this year man because you know we've got Joe Gomez Joe Gomez ain't going he played in a few different areas I know Jake's not a big fan of it but Jake for me we need a six I've been crying out for this sort of a six stroke midfielder I've been crying out for this position now for three or four years three years ago I was told oh there's no player in the world that was good enough that we could buy last year yeah it was kaiso we couldn't find the same player we've changed the way we play now we still can't find that player I don't know what what where we're trying to find this player from because every year it seems like we're looking for this player and there's no player in World football that we your argument team when you say that when we're looking for a destroyer as a six and there isn't one on the market and now we're looking for a different type of six if there isn't one on the market I'm being honest with you it's a fabulous argument it makes the most sense I haven't heard anybody else talk about it no matter what type of player we're looking for it doesn't exist so I meaning we talking this is this this is my this has always been my biggest issue Jake okay for two seasons that we we couldn't find a destroyer or they were more of a different type now we don't want a destroyer we want a different type we still can't find them they're back to square one or thing in it but look they've got you know I'm still confident we bring one in what in terms of what position that is I don't really have a clue right now there are conflicting there are conflicting reports coming out of Argentina today um this Lou fosi is supposed to have a lot of good Intel um and I'm just reading actually DAV cop's I if IBS is the one that bra that's you thank you for tuning in yes um man yeah I already asked I don't know why you can I finish Argentinian reporter Louie frosi has gone as far to say that Liverpool have made a bid for Alan Vera and he will be joining Alexis mallister in the red so look I don't know this guy is supposed to have a lot of Intel in Argentina I'm just looking at his bio he's a periodista conductor and rela God knows but let's just see if there's substance to that look Alan verella is a good footballer he's not the zuie mendi but he's definitely a cleanup in that sixth roow uh more fabinho type good range of passing good on the ball he's a good pass of the ball he's not a uh he can't get away from the Lin like a graen bir who can seamlessly you know take a dribble take a run um get away from trouble but he's a he's a very good player he's been very highly thought of in the last should know Gina's an Argentinian fan and he saay quiet for the whole show Alan ver a I said see I've said I've really liked him Jak me and you did a show on him when we mentioned them five midfielders he was one that we said you know what we would we would take a little of granted that we wanted the lights of a I wanted a war and over any other midfielder out there but if if right now you said to me take alamel of course I'll take him I think he's he's a good footballer he's good on the ball he's the decent passer of the ball he's got that the we' got a bit of energy about him as well so I like him you know and mentioned the the the Argentinian connection him and mallister it might work you know but the thing is look I don't want to start talking about these players right now with 24 hours to go I don't even know you there's a there's news that you know what we're not after him that you know what it's the way of the world Liverpool I tell you what we are the best fans in the world because we're the only fan base that will track planes we will track cruise ships we'll track John Henry's Yacht Where is we'll track him down that he's in the highlands in Scotland right now it's a whiskey Distillery having some know whiskies with his wife and his kids where the only fan base that will track everything look today J you guys let me ask you guys one question first let's say we don't bring a player in let's say the window is closed now I'm not answering this question I'm not answering this question answer the question can we survive until January in the title race to bias that amount of time for us to bring a player in in the January window for the run in to the to the end of the season or will we lose the title between now and then because we do like a January signing look I think to have that expectation Jake first and foremost to say that we're in a title race in cops uh I'm asking you if we can we make January or not in slot's first season um okay up until January yeah we should be there they abouts okay I mean if we're five points away from the top in January then it's game on then from January to may you do what you do in the bus you do business in January basically you give slot something in January if you're five points away if you're like nine points away in January where the title seeming seemingly is going either to the Emirates or toad then you you still do business in January but you just make sure you're sort of you know in that third fourth risking risks risks risks risks again we're s there risking taking not taking the risk when we should have taken the no we should no we we should we should be getting a player in we should be getting a player Len we should have done our business weeks ago if we're being really honest yeah of course we all want to play now on another world in another world in another Ideal World Zu would have been sign zuba Mandy Kasa and Mish valy coming in next year we wouldn't have complained none of us none of us three would have complained maybe another Defender short okay fair enough okay but if it's if we're really waiting for that exact player of that left Center back hybrid role I'm willing to wait but we should have got a midfielder in there's more alternative to zuie meni okay not like for like but there's players out there who can fill that role we will have left ourselves short Jake and whether graen bir is ready for a big game uh like against the United where at Old Trafford where the atmosphere can get the better of you where it's going to be a bit of Torment whether he can play as's as well as he's been playing at Portman Road at I and brenford at home it's a different kettle of fish you know after that we haven't got another six you know Elliot cannot play that role saos cannot really play that role uh Jones out of stretch can do an okay job you're relying on mallister again to be that six Endo end and his best work is done Endo but you know most of us have written off Endo he was on the verge of joining Mars a couple of weeks ago if it wasn't of the diff playing ahead of mallister in that position a million or two million Euros so it's look we can get to Jan January definitely um with this squad I think we have a great Squad CL did leave a great squad for Scot to take over that's why we only need two or three tweaks but those two and three tweaks should have been done and it hasn't been there you know K is a great signing you know I hope it really works out for him but we had far more important far more important areas that should have been addressed the Midfield is one of them and a Defender was one of them thanks for answering my question even though you said you wouldn't I appreciate that of course anything I'll do anything for you darling uh Gina look I I'm uh I'll give my peace on this man it's I think I'm done I'm just I'm just like now honestly man I think that blood verella news has sent me a bit sideways when it happens
