 Welcome back to the Breakfast on Plastic with Africa, now with the time we have left let's quickly move into talking sports and of course for everyone except Arsenal fans we've seen the most interesting transfer window in quite a while, from Manchester United to Chelsea to Manchester City, everyone has you know brought out money from their pockets and done what needed to be done, included PSG which also made it very very new to buy the season. So we're going to be talking about that now with Wally Scott, there's a lot of you know little details here and there and you know, good morning Wally Scott, now this is undoubtedly the craziest transfer season, I mean that's how analysts are on the world are describing it, well why so? Just crazy, everybody consistently spoke about Lionel Metzi ending his career in Barcelona and then he moves to Pakistan, everybody felt like Ronaldo was beginning to settle down in Juventus in Italy and Syria, he had become a god in Turin already and then we heard he was going to go to Manchester City and we were like ah, Manchester City, you know you left Manchester United, you went to Real Madrid, you are a legend, you are a god. Now this guy goes on TikTok or something and burns his Ronaldo 7 shirts, when he was in Miami before thinking that he was going to go to Manchester City and Ronaldo eventually came to Miami United and an estimator said that that shirt would have been worth £200,000 if he had not burnt it, you know that's how crazy season has been and then you see Arsenal who have bought like six players now or five players, no names but we heard that but I am someone, I have been doing this for a while, a sports analysis and all that, I have been a reporter, I have gone abroad and this is the craziest, whoever thought Messi would leave Barcelona, whoever thought he would go to Pakistan, we thought he would go and play his trade with Manchester City with his former coach Pep Guardiola, whoever thought Ronaldo would go back to Manu after many years that he left. Are these money-motivated transfers or they are, you know, passion? I have no idea but I think post COVID, most of these clubs have become more money-oriented because we heard that Lionel Messi's jersey in Paris Saint-Germain sold out in 30 minutes. Who does that kind of business? They have made their money that they used to buy Messi from the chess sales in 30 minutes. My Ronaldo shirts have gotten so sold out now that some most of the shops in London have locked up because they don't have stocks anymore and the only thing they are coming to ask for is Ronaldo's number 7 shirt. Ironically, when they will show what number Ronaldo will wear. It's been confirmed he's wearing number 7 shirt by the way. Before that, they were just Ronaldo, no number on it. They were asking for it. Now that 7 has been put on it now, we have a different stock of people coming to look for it. Look at the kind of business these guys are doing. So let's talk about all the transfer rules. What are we hearing? Well, the window has closed already. We see us now buying players that are not just there. They've got this Japanese guy, Taki Ushu, he's a fantastic player but he's not in name. And like Osaregio said, these guys are doing right now his business. You're getting good legs, you're getting good players for the season but most importantly, what I've noticed is the English players are buying massively. Western United, for example, I am the Europa League for the first time in 60, 70 years. They were the ones that bought the most players, two seasons ago, they bought nine players, almost a whole team. But because the players they bought were not stars, we didn't notice them. But now they're in the Europa League, it's been a gradual crime. They've got a coach like David Moyers who has done very well with the club. Now they're buying more players too, they've got Daniel James from Manchester United. So I think it's a gradual process. Are there any fears of anybody flopping with their transfers? Lukaku already has started on a good note. Ronaldo hasn't played yet but I mean he had two goals against Ireland two days ago. Are there any fears that some of these transfers may be very, very much hyped but they may not deliver as much as is expected from Leonardo Messi, Romero, Lukaku, Cristiano Ronaldo, which of course is the biggest for now. I don't see, first of all, Messi doing his mercurial as he has been in Barcelona, in Pakistan. Lukaku, the defenders in England who finally get to catch him. When he was in Manchester United, when he first came in, he did very well. And then after a while, the defenders knew what to do right. He wasn't scoring anymore. With time, the defenders would know what to do right and he wouldn't score anymore. Jadon Sancho might be a flop for me, that is. But Ronaldo is good, he's the man that anybody wants to beat and the man you will do very well. But generally, which flop do I think would be the most major flop of the season for me would be Chelsea. Everybody is talking about them winning the Champions League, they've got a bunch of players, they will do well, this league is theirs, they won't win the league. I don't know who will in the interim league, but they won't win the league. It's not going to happen. That's the major flop that I think. Chelsea would not necessarily be a flop if they don't win it, they haven't won it since Morino, half day. They have a fantastic team right now. They've got a bond, they are together, they just won the Champions League and they are defending Chelsea. They are still a team to be worried about, to be scared of. They won the Champions League last year. But everybody, the bookmakers are saying that there's a large possibility this should be Chelsea's year and not Manchester's year. I don't think so. All right, anyway, we need to leave. I don't think so. Well, Escobar, thank you very much. Thank you. Of course, we have games this weekend. Thank you. International break. But we have a match tonight. The Super Eagles will be playing Liberia in the World Cup qualifiers tonight at the Test in Balogham Stadium. We've got a full squad and Mardukaw Koye, the goalkeeper, has said that he's optimistic and is going to keep a clean sheet against Liberians. But the record favour us against Liberians. We've played 14 times with 1-9. They've only beaten us once. The rest are draws. So I think it will be a good match tonight. So if you are around, well, the tickets are not being sold. It actually comes from invitation. But you can actually watch the game live on television on some few selected media houses. Only 38 journalists have been accredited to cover it. Only two terrestrial television stations have been accredited to actually show the match. It will be live. It starts at 5pm, Test in Balogham Stadium, Nigeria against Liberia, the World Cup qualifiers. All the best to the Super Eagles. All right, we'll need to go. Thanks a lot for being with us all through the week.
