 Skibet Championship games last night and despite the fact that leads didn't play they have been promoted to a flight. What does that feel especially for big man Marcelo Bielsa who's been missing out on during the last minute? He's had a long career but he's had very little trophies to show what he's done. He's a coach who people like Mauricio Pochettino and Pep Guardiola say he's one of the best ever in history and for him to come to the championship he failed short last season just as the season was sent here by a whisker but the season leads have done it and they didn't even need to play yesterday to be back in the Premier League and let's see how they'll perform next season. I'm really looking forward for it. Osoro but you remember last year we were here and leads united were in playoffs and they missed out by a whisker and good to see you know the big man back in top flight just like Ken indicated I think Marcelo Bielsa is a man regarded as one of the best but even the heavyweights are leads Fagasonas and Venga Jose Mourinho Pep Guardiola How does that feel for leads? A team that Rio Fadnand played for and yesterday he celebrated I think the last time my leads was in the Premier League was in the early 2000s after they were relegated they never came back again but it's a good one for them because we realize that now they team one of leads went for a coach and trusted the coach this is a coach who doesn't even understand one word in English all the time he works with an interpreter Risavi is drama theatrics of the touch line his team has been really playing well in the championship they have had some good moments and them coming onto the Premier League they can go ahead and perform better I think the president has been set by the likes of Sheffield United team that came from the championship and now they are fighting for european places and leads also coming back is going to be a very good I think a very good competitor when the Premier League comes back in September Well indeed and of course this happening three days after you know Manchester City survived an axe of champions league ban after their appeal was lifted on Monday by you know a court of arbitration for sport you know ruling in their favor and you know good read dance to city who are looking forward playing in champions league football next season their second as you speak right now which means they are guaranteed over sport what does that mean for you know teams that have been chasing for top four finish led by you know the usual culprits us none I think they are really disappointed because everyone thought that UF or the CS will still uphold the ban and Situ will not be in the champions league but now that they are in the other teams who thought fifth will be okay to go to the champions league now have to really work and get into fourth because that's the reality fourth takes you to the champions league and many managers and many people connected to this sport are disappointed in that decision because people like Phil Neville and Jose Mourinho have come out and said that they have no faith in UFA they expected the ban to be afail but it wasn't and Mourinho said something very interesting he said that why would they find if they have no nothing to be punished for and I think the sentiments by Jose Mourinho what does the insinuit of city survival is he trying to mean that you know city were favored I don't think so city they were in an appeal process and they want the appeal I think that's how courts work you are inducted you go you have a bad day you come back the decision is not for you then you go you appeal and then you win I think Jose Mourinho is coming to a realization that is in a club that cannot give him resources there has been used to so that's why he's coming to that decision thinking he wanted a kind of a decision where now they are on the level playing fielding that he knows that city is not going to spend as much to bring in good players because Tottenham cannot do that I think that's why he said so Phil Neville is a Manchester United player Manchester United fan also and Everton fan and he knows that this decision is going to go against them because now as a United fan it might take long for them to lift this trophy because city has got the resources to buy the best of the best I think that is it but I think the decision puts now you have for people to come and explain themselves because why did you find these people what was the criteria and they said that Manchester City defied the financial fair play rules now it is you have for now to come out and tell us these rules that they broke how did they do it on the appeal process how did they win it in the appeal process because they said that city was using more money than what the club brings out in profits so what the club brings out in profits so they are using outside cash so they need to prove that because now they have opened the decision for everyone everyone who has money can now go out there and buy and now that everyone who has got financial muscles can buy a player he wishes to is Fifa fair play rules dead and gone I think it is because these days you just see the big clubs they can buy anyone and the amount that those players are going for when for example you look at La Liga the type of players the money they can get players for is not the same as the other little club so there is no fairness when you look at it because financial rules came with Michelle Platini and it was to put a level playing field between the financial muscle clubs well of clubs and the clubs that do not have that now as it happens at the moment the richer and big clubs will go on being like that and these lower clubs are going to suffer more with it Ken I'm going to put you in the spotlight who has been your best player for Real Madrid this season Karim Benzema for me Karim Benzema why I mean this season he's really stood up he's last season when Ronaldo left he stood up but this season he's been extra amazing than last season he's the top scorer for the team he's a leader and the way he plays his football the way he can also assist he can also he gives them a lot of dimension going forward and the fact that the Madrid fans adore him and he's he's took that adoration and made himself the best player this season is just amazing wow those are good comments of Karim Benzema I think this is the man we watched in olympic Lyonnais Fagason then was in charge of United and he could chase for his acquisition something that he didn't manage until Real Madrid secured his services but I think I have counter opinion Sergio Ramos is a man played with Radines Dan in their last professional football in 2006 a few years when he had been signed from Sevilla and you know he lifted the title with Zidane as the manager and him as a skipper with Zidane as a captain that's 14 years later and this man has been you know the penalty taker for Real Madrid he's been a leader he's been the skipper and he's termed authority who's been your man for Real Madrid this season Sergio Ramos has been a good player has been a good leader for Real Madrid and that can be seen there with the way he plays and everything but there are two people that Real Madrid have got to thank for lifting this title after three years that is Tony Cross and Luka Modric they have been the midfield engine for Real Madrid and you look at even the marches Luka Modric missed a few of the marches because of the injury but Tony Cross has been playing the marches season in season out since he joined Real Madrid he has been the link up between defense and attack and he has they have put a very good midfield engine that is very hard for you to surpass the leak yes it went to the was going to the wire although Barcelona was not going to lose that one but it's good also to break that Barcelona dominance and those are the players who have done it because Real Madrid is going through a bit of transition young players are coming on to this team the likes of Inesias Junior they are coming on to the team now these older players they are retiring they are getting on to the five twilight years in the game but they have really shown that they can still play at the big stage and they are showing the young players how to do it at the moment and you must have followed you know the proceedings of Real Madrid celebration that night they were crowned the champions and one man Gareth Bale the Welsh international you know I tend to think by the virtue that he's British he's being underrated you know he's been an integral figure at the Santiago Barnabu you remember inspiring the team to champion's league title against Liverpool two years down the line but when the rest of the team was celebrating you know this man was just casual like this is it attributed to the way Zizu has treated him subjecting him to lack of regular playing football yeah yeah I think it's that because he just looked out of it when the other players were there throwing ups he then was just on the side he didn't even look that much into it and it's it's sad to see someone like Bale who this season he's only he's only featured 16 times for Real Madrid and he's a person who can give them a lot more you know and you see Asenchi is being preferred ahead of Bale do you still believe that you know Bale with this experience permanent form is permanent glass is temporary Bale is still a quality quality place that is just that him and Zidane the relationship is gone I don't think Zidane wants to see him play at Real again I don't think the problem is in Adin Zidane because in Adin Zidane wakudu with Ronaldo and everything I think Gareth Bale himself was to put himself into a report card let's say let's have his report card as a player wakudu very well at Tottenham playing at even the top level and then you are being bought by Real Madrid he came to Real Madrid at a bad time for him I can't say because you are going to be playing at the shadow of Cristiano Ronaldo that one can be bad and everything can be happen when you are playing at the shadow of Cristiano Ronaldo and he has got some of the injuries and all that from the body language of Gareth Bale all the time I think from the Euros and everything and the way lies down and everything playing golf with the flags and everything it tells you that this is a player who was not taking Real Madrid to heart he was not having Real Madrid at heart his agent is ever telling him you need to go think you confirm designing this season after dealing with a Chinese club failed down on the last minute then he signed for the club I think that is the player he never took Real Madrid at heart and play for it and he is not the only player who crossed over from the English Premier League and shown with Real Madrid and we cannot say that he is playing in the shadows of Ronaldo and all the others because the Galaticos at the end of the day have been playing with big stars Mike Owen played with David Beckham and they were a good team Luis Figo came in when Raul was there a big team Ronaldo Carlos so him coming here I think being in the Spanish capital for six to seven years and even not learning even that language was bad for him anyway we all agree regardless that you know Gareth Bell has been world class he's been excellent his career at Santiago Bernabas been last class he's the captain for Wales national team and I think we wish him the very best in his next move amid you know the exodus of players from Real Madrid considering the age and the upcoming of young talents away from that now five substitutes to be used in the next season contrary to three that we are used to would that you know sort of that dramatically favors the the bigger clubs you know because their benches when you look at it's pure quality expensive players so having that luxury of having you can just pick five out of or out of eight or nine who are world class is just great for the big teams but not so much for the young teams where you find players are there on loan from bigger teams players have just come up from the championship it's it's unfair and the best thing that happened from this route being changed is that they said any competition can choose to have it or not so for the Premier League La Liga I don't think they should have them because that would just throw a big bang in this case Manchester City are they favored because there is much quality on the bench yeah very they are very much favored it's like having a new team when you substitute because you see there are coaches who come with two substitute at halftime we realize that they like Man City can substitute two players at halftime they can bring in Gundogan and let's say Foden at halftime and have Dev De Silva out and then in the 65th minute they bring in two other players that's having like a new that's like refilling at the petrol station that's changing yeah yeah the quality is still at the big level so these other clubs I think I've seen with Bournemouth how burnout has scaled some of those players with injuries and how they get had with Burnley not having the good resources to have those teams so those four players and with the rotation and with many competitions that you have you are going to have that these bigger clubs actually are going to have a bigger advantage compared to the lesser clubs Andres Shule we all remember him during his jail 16th now retiring at 29th we've had such cases a few of them though where players have announced football retirement professional play at a tender age maybe owing to lack of regular playing football frustrations injury what do you remember Andres Shule for? I remember him for two things and both of them in the 2014 World Cup when he came on at halftime versus Brazil he scored two amazing goals during that 7-1 demolition and in the final he's done was assisted Mario Godse for them to actually lift the trophy he's his retirement just shocked everyone because 29 these days we see players playing until that 6th that 7th but he's retired at 29 a player who's much accomplished a player who's who's good but made some bad decisions during his career and also some little injuries and maybe that's why he's retired he's realized he may never rediscover the form he had before before he left church what are the bad decisions he made? I think him going to Fulham was just bad decision very bad one because nobody expected them as much as they had spent a lot of money last season nobody expected Fulham to be top to be contenders for Europe or anything you know yeah and uh when he went into that team everyone wanted him to be like the the torch the guiding light for the team but he wasn't for it he just he scored very few goals and he didn't produce the quality everyone expected him and when they were relegated I think that just that just took the shine out of him to say this guy has been relegated with Fulham whereas he just went to Russia a league which is not covered that much and yeah that's just everything for sure but there's much pressure that we wind up the show but I know these guys are very good friends I'm an extension of 5 minutes it's much appreciated as long as on a condition that we don't we don't talk bad of Arsenal which we accept anyway we winding up tonight's clash semifinal stage of FAA Cup live and exclusive on KBC channel on Arsenal against Manchester City some people saying that you know when Arsenal is playing against City you can just you know if you are an investor they are passionate about betting and you can take one million shlings and put it on City and expect you know the good outcome in your favor but Arsenal played very interesting football against Liverpool shocking the word they are 2-1 victory against the Reds the champions can that happen tonight? teacher was a student a lot everybody is saying about Pep Kudyola having taught Michaela Teta to be his protege at the moment but I think of late you can see that Arsenal has been playing good football yes they have won some critical and key matches on the road they have defeated the champion Liverpool this season they have defeated Manchester United itself they have had a good I think a very good run in the matches I think the only problem they have defeated teams that we didn't expect them to defeat Old Fum to Nwanderas yeah they have got young players Sheffield United as well on their side they have got young players on the side and all that I think it's a 50-50 chance it's a knockout competition and you can be knocked out at any time but City as you have already said it they have a higher advantage you look at the way they have been demolishing it's like they are preparing for the FA Cup is the title that they wanted and the FA Cup was going to get it can I don't know could get them back to Europe and all that they have got the chance but don't write off Arsenal as yet don't write off Arsenal as yet Ken, your last what's with regards tonight's game Arsenal against City where are you putting your money Manchester City obviously because when they played Liverpool Liverpool made two uncharacteristic mistakes yes if City don't make those mistakes tonight's Pep wants to have every trophy you know if City don't make those mistakes they explain them to him comfortably and then and then just just one thing Arsenal players need to work on concentration for them when you are playing Man City I think teams that have defeated Man City this season have told us that that is a United Chelsea Liverpool you have to work on concentration they make those blandas like the way David Lewis did against Tottenham Brighton that's where you lose the game against City United against Chelsea tomorrow your team chasing for top four finish FA is it you know what they can consult themselves with now that they have missed out on English Premier League one more time I think they'll want to go for that trophy I think they'll give everything and they've already beaten Chelsea twice this season so I thought won't be so bad for Wale I United will win they're playing very well at the moment and Chelsea their defence quite shaky so I see it as a United win as a United win Wale indeed touchline has been the shown 1, 2, 5, 4 time always not on our side but of course due to public outcry we shall be looking forward to hear from the management on whether they can add us more few minutes but it's been a good show next Saturday same time, same place my name Max Olwasika alongside Osoro Robert Ken Andrew has been our robust panelist coming in through during the fan zone and of course from us stay blessed stay safe
