 Welcome to the Premier League show. The transfer window has closed. It's over. Everybody has to cope with what they've got, suck it in to see for about 13 games when they can carry on spending almost £2 billion, which is what's being spent this summer by Premier League teams. It's a lot of money. It is a lot of money. The lads over on 888 sports, the playlist I've been discussing who had the best transfer within them. Let's see what they say They didn't say that though. They said who would've won the transferSomePeople What I did they say that around me They did they feels because I somebody I should of trademarked this. I should of team olwch wedi fydd o'ch edfrydd. Fel ymlaen, mae'n meddwl ar couch, mae'n fyddwch i'n tech o'r fideo ar 888 Sport Youtube channel. Mae'n ei weithgol yn y griffau. Mae sdd ymlaen.

I think of Leigh, Leigh's a Mardicoch. Duncan was in Hollyo because... I once heard him in the back of my cat. It's a different story for a different date. It's Anthony Costa this one. Anthony Costa. Probably wasn't him, but it looked a bit like him. Maybe it was him. Go over to the channel. See if they sing. Let's move on. Who won it? There's a phrase that, like we've just said, you couldn't see him. But who has won the transfer market window? Are they saying Arsenal? But it's Manchester City. Haaland. Haaland for just over £50 million. He's literally unbelievable. The machine. The Iceman. Unbelievable. The Terminator, whatever you want to call him. He's so back from the future and he definitely... Man City has played two games this week. Palace unsatty tune of that. And you see the importance of having a striker like him. And what a difference he can make. They're not turning that round without them, are they? No. Because last season they would have just passed, passed, passed. And all Palace have to do shit back and soak her up. And suddenly they've got a centre forward. They can do that. And that's what turns that game round. And then the other night they played Forrest. And it's the same thing. OK. Forrest are going to go then. They're going to try and maybe do the same thing. Suck her up. But he just scores one touch finishes. Well the first goal is literally him reacting quickly to a deflect across. And he's the first one. Which he set up. He gets across your world. That's it. Ugly goals. That's it. He hasn't been scoring maybe. I've seen Rory get a little bit of bit of a stick because he basically said. Of course. He said he wasn't sure. Maybe it's just a controversial statement. I don't know for the sake of it. But he's a tremendous player. And for me. He's got eight or nine already, hasn't he? He's got nine, hasn't he? He's got nine. He scored a new castle. I think he's failed to score in one game. He's unbelievable. So that on its own. But I think the other kid he brought in. Who scored two on the other night as well. Alvarez. He looks a good player. They've brought his centre back in as well. They've kept an adult silver. What did you make of his comments? He released a statement. Didn't he say in those man's city that he wanted to move because he wanted to move on to a different way of life. But if he stays, he'll give everything to city. He's a wonderful footballer. He maybe just felt at this stage of his career that it was time to maybe just see. But he's been playing last few games and he's a wonderful player. He did help to turn that game around. First goal against Palace. But they've moved players on as well. And they've got really good fees for young players going to Southampton as well. Sold 18 million players to Southampton. So for the FFP and all that, they've done nine Premier League goals. He's got them five games. They've done extraordinary business as well. Out as well as in. For me, it's not about how many you're bringing. It's about how it improves you and how it changes you. And the quality. And I think what man's city have done is just someone like Stalen's gone out because they've got great money for them and Harlan's come in and his users have gone out. And they will help the teams they've gone to. Don't get me wrong. Take points off. Will help try and take points off teams. Going up against man's city. Deliver pools of the world and each other. And I just think it's being an extraordinary window for them. I really do. I said at the time, it was ballsy, allowing Gabriel Chazuch at 25 to go. He scored goals for city. Raheem Staling at 20 goals a season for city. And the man was prepared to let the pair of them go. When you've got Harlan coming in and you've got Alvarez, he's young. What would you say? Would Arsenal second them? Would you say? Because they've had a good week. Arsenal are flying out. They won five out of five. On the last week, they've won two games. Full of them, they were behind him and they turned it round to win two-one. And then they beat Villa. The one they love, Villa's going to equalize and then they get the winner. You look at those two games and think there's a little bit of there's a little bit of something there to take. They might have been games last season that might end up being draws or whatever. They've won five out of five at the top of the league at the moment. He's brought in Jesus, who is the gold scorer, the person who keeps them occupied. But they've strengthened in other areas as well. I think they've done I think they've done decent. They've done the kind of business that you need to do to improve your team. Maybe they are just ahead of space. Maybe because Gabriel Chazews is a match winner. And that's what they got. They moved the Bamiang out didn't leave last season. They moved Lacazette out at the end of the season. And obviously to bring in Gabriel Chazews brilliant. So maybe, that is the reason why they go ahead. But I don't know, space have done well now, you know. Space have brought Besumer in, he's fantastic. He brought Jed Spenson. He can play it right back, Culevescu permanently. Obviously they have been to caring in the last you know, in the January transfer when the Britsialas has come in. Even Perisic has come in as well. He's got Ben Foster, Ben Foster Fraser Foster, as a backhoe keeper. He's made a permanent I think as well. So Dave brought key players into Antonio Conti's squad as well. So those who fighting it out. But Arsenal, maybe. Zincenco. Fabio Vieira. Salabar obviously, Cumbach. I think from the load. That's a different one. McQueenos is it? McQueenos. McQueenos, Brazilian wing. I know he's not great. But Zincenco and Azusa I think are a two really good back. That's one that you look at the end of the season. You can hand on heart to which plays have had the biggest influence. Oh, that's a difficult one I don't I think Spares and Arsenal have both improved. Maybe Arsenal, because they've put a match winner in their team where Spares have generally improved their squad. So like Britsialis is a sub and he's like he's a really good. But can you define but can you define how that makes you better because I can define how it makes Arsenal better. No, no, but Arsenal, but Tottenham have already got one of them. But what they'll say is we needed another one to take the pressure off and we needed to make our whole team better. So it's difficult to define where the one player, Arsenal could say on the go, yeah we've got a goalscorer there fans who are I don't think are particularly happy. I think I think Arsenal fans are Arsenal finished the window a player lighter than the end of the season. So therefore they'll go well okay you cut the fat that's great. But will that be enough to get us through the season where it's Tottenham will be looking at going where we might have signed anyone unbelievable but our squad is so much more better and it's so much more prepared now and it's a challenge of getting into the top four and being in the Champions League so that's, but what I would say is or this is the question I'll ask you is do you think both of those teams and Spares Spares had Spares be forest on Sunday but then drew with West Ham in the week. Now I know I'm just saying so they've picked up four points out of two away games, two toughish away games but do you think both of their business are better than Chelsea's and ultimately that's the team that both of those teams are trying to get above. You know they've brought in for Farre late in the window, they've just brought in a Bami Ang, they've brought in Dennis Zechari even though he fell in the middle apparently, they've brought him on loan, they've brought in Culler Barley, Rahim Stalen Cuckirella you know they've brought in they've brought in some really talented players there but they've brought some of them in they've brought them in at different stages and they've also missed out on a lot of targets you know they've they've had a mixed week you know they've got to be in the week by Southampton 2-1 after just about beating Leicester 2-1 at home going down to 10 there McConnor Gallagher getting sent off as well so that was a good win though no that is a good win I'm saying that's a good win but then they've gone to Leicester Southampton sorry after beating Leicester and lost the second away game in a row after leading they've got the players in but are they at a slight disadvantage or is it bringing in a Bami Ang late in the window to be there centre forward have they rectified the problems is it still early enough that it's not an issue yeah of course well there are points behind Arsenal because Arsenal got a perfect record at the moment but obviously things can change because Arsenal were bottom of the league and were fantastic so a year later they've changed that there are 4 points behind Spares 33 games to play obviously have to play both of them twice no they've already played Spares sorry they've played Spares haven't they they've got to play Tottenham away haven't they they've got Arsenal on my way so it's listen it's nothing has ever been decided in the first week in September ever in league football but what I would say is Chelsea Chelsea have brought a lot of names haven't they when you look at it that doesn't six starters as well but the names aren't the Culler Barley 30 30 mum 31 you've got a Bami Ang 33 Stalen 27 byr a lot of miles on the clock but then to flip that four final is 21 Cuckirell is 24 he brought in the kid from Villar as well as 18 but he's some one to he's a future player isn't he I think they'll say they want to to know that centre of field player because obviously Canty has had issues he's injured they've done to a couple of centre of field players in the week they weren't sure of so I think when it all washes through and Chelsea players fully integrated into their squad the only thing I would say is di gore Bami Ang I think he'll score goals if you create him chances they may just be a little bit like but then he got brilliant up there as well there was talk that he was trying to get Memphis to play in that didn't quite happen I think he'd either got him in I think he'd have gone he knows where the net is he's scored again the other night Raheem Staling will score goals for Chelsea probably 15 to 20 because he gets every season for City so there is goals in it once they settle down for Farners it's great him and Cule Bally at the back I think will do well for do the one just outside obviously Manchester United who have had a very strange window they've had a good week two wins Southampton Southampton away 1-0 and then went to Leicester and got another 1-0 two clean sheets but again a mixed bag in terms of when they brought players in they brought Christian Erickson in quite early and then they've had Sandro Martinis Casamene and now they've brought Anthony in Chirill, Malashir Malashir is the left back they've got Martin of course coming on loan from Newcastle so he obviously since that ball of game Brentford game sorry he's got more of I think that game was actually probably the best thing that ever happened to him because he gave him the right to go you Ronaldo sit down you whoever sit down you sit down you sit down and it's my way now and all the egos are out the door and he's brought in the plays he wants he's getting a tune out of the plays he had and it'll settle down for him so they are again this will be one way I'm not going to sit here and go oh they've had an amazing window the proof will be in the pudding for Manchester United over the long term where do you finish but I think just the Casamere one and the Anthony one it's just made people go oh okay that's interesting and also the Martinis one since he played against Liverpool which where he was brilliant in that game by the way and they've had a couple of clean sheets now and a row I think people are going oh actually that could turn out to be an amazing sign and as well so that's another one way they've brought in what they need I still think they're a striker like United I still think they need to bring in a centre forward but they've got I suppose they've got Rashford through the middle haven't they doesn't it's got enough goals no but he's scored against Liverpool didn't he he's got the talent no I know what you mean but he's got the tyre like Marcus Rashford but he doesn't it's got enough goals he's not a centre forward he's not a centre forward I think if you if you just left them to get on with it I don't believe you when you say that he's not a centre forward I do like Rashford though he's the same he's on the other side I just don't think the centre forward Ronaldo will score but doesn't do anything else now and I don't think he's going to play he's going to be sub isn't he I think he'll play some games of course but you've got it you've listened 10 hags coming he's they've backed them in terms of I don't mean fully backed on the mark of what I mean is they backed them in terms of he's the one they went all in on there was other options around everyone knew potatino was going to be available in the summer and all of that but they went with 10 hag which is fair news so you've got to allow him to get on with it now on and give him a bit of power well the other one that we haven't really mentioned is Liverpool so obviously they brought in Nunes Cavalio Cavalio out from Fulham Califgham Ramsey they brought in Arthur Mello as well on loan it's an interesting one that because Arthur Mello's coming to help that midfield he's a player who is just a complete possession sort of monster isn't he is that fair for pass accuracy and all that unbelievable do you know what I mean I think he can please add a game once where he has 100% pass accuracy and all that kind of thing he doesn't have any goals in him he doesn't have any assists in him but he's the ball everything goes through him so that's an issue Nunes that obviously the jury still out started well but then got descending off so again they've had a decent week haven't they, they won 9-0 which isn't bad and also in that game Salah doesn't even score or have an assist which is mad and then they come from behind and meet Newcastle 2-1 slight conservation in it it was you know 3x in minutes so they've had a good week but I think he'll be disappointed that they haven't got they haven't got a little bit more in maybe or someone who is you know you want to have someone who's not on I think they should have got a centre midfielder where it's like a top centre midfielder which is the future of Liverpool rather than bringing someone in maybe yeah maybe maybe he's one who's been obviously very heavily linked I think they wanted to shoot your men didn't they and obviously they didn't get any they were interested in him in January I think what was it last summer they wanted to look there in and obviously Bellingham's been mentioned quite a lot so they are looking at that and Liverpool's transfer business in general over since Klopp's been there's been fantastic this one is a little touch underwhelming on something to the red men lads and it was a little bit but when you've had so much success in the transfer market you don't really you just go right okay you can't know what to do Calvin Rams he's coming and I think he'll be a good player he's obviously had an injury they're hoping to get him back but yeah when you look at them they are probably that midfield is getting on and I know Jamie Carrack has voiced his concerns over it Gary Neville's mentioned it as well he's not really recycled it so maybe yeah maybe you can clap a look and go we could have done with another one you know he's losing sadly old man he's a huge thing you know it's people who try to down play and go we've got Darwin Nunes he's young and this Nunes might go on to be brilliant for Liverpool but man he was fantastic he's the man who got important you'd won a year crossover there wouldn't you anyone else court you like outside of obviously the top six West Ham have done a lot of business haven't they they've brought in they've brought in about seven new players they've brought in quite a lot of paid a lot of money to be honest Lucas Pickettas is West Ham's pick of the bunch really I'm not overly impressed with everything they've done some of them are a little bit you wonder where they you know what to look on but Pickettas is a good sign and Moise has got them strong anyway the one that stands out you just mentioned Forest with the 21-22 signings which is bizarre I think I think it could be a better what about someone like Newcastle obviously they've brought in Nick Pope Matt Target Sven Bottman they brought in Isaac this week you obviously scored on his debut and really should have had a second one and he's obviously their big money signing they've they've done alright I think they've done the kind of business where you look at and go after what they did in January that's going to push you up a few places isn't it especially in this league I think when you look at Newcastle there's obviously a lot of hype around them right to be fair it's probably not coming from coming from some of their fans because some of them are are the way they are and haven't been like that no matter what league they're in and I've seen them in all kinds of leagues but I think a lot of them it's just it's everybody else everybody else people have got 300 billions of spend when it's just nonsense it's just absolute nonsense because they haven't but what they're doing isn't they're doing it really well is they're planning what they're doing they're not they're trying not to just be we'll pay 80 million for Madison then just because Leicester are asking it they're trying to be careful I think to probably look their evidence and go and do not do what they did and absolutely don't because we spaffed it all up the wall so you have to you have to strategically plan what you're doing and if you've got some money backing that up then excellent and you start by making some money and he did surprise me that he really had done it because he wasn't like this at all maybe it was some money so maybe just add less pressure so we could almost play with it a little bit because there wasn't the same pressure what he's done is he's just made them solid and they're a very functional team now and what they are is they're very functional he's got Bruno Gimeris in midfield he's a good player, he's got the pace of St. Maxim, he's always a threat whether he has a little product but he's got a like all at wolves at the weekend and got them on point and now I have an Isaac who's got loads of potential, he's got a lad he can put the bone in it what man comes in makes them solid at the back target they've had there anyways so he's made them nice and solid and they've got some people who can win games yeah of course they went to wolves they've got a 1-1 draw a great last minute goal from Maxim and they got Peter and Phil as we said so two tough games for them but wolves are we mentioning there they've done alright business haven't they they've done quite well but just flipping it around less the city you know they've only brought in one wood first is that how you pronounce his name centre back brought him in from Stad Reims obviously to replace for Farnay they've seen Michael Leith which was a massive shock they've got you know Vadi's a year older Madison's probably being asked to do the majority of the work they've got younger players, they've got injuries they've had a shocker they've had a shocker leading your brand Rogers has come out and has been quite critical of the board and not being able to bring in place and basically also basically telling everybody that you know we said obviously they got beat by Chelsea to one at the weekend which they were unlucky but he's basically you know come out and go this is it this is what you're going to have to expect I've been given the tools after Manchester United we're not the same club we were two years ago basically just got a stick with the team because otherwise we're in trouble you know which is what he said and this is what happens in football and it's mad isn't it because everybody loaded less there and rightly so for the stuff that they've done they've had an incredible time they've won two big trophies and even won a charity shield as well they really have had good times in the last six years being a Champions League and everything so but the thing is is that once the money dries up this is how a lot of teams are on a precipice a lot of them of one way or the other it goes one way and all of the good times that you think you're having it can change the other way very very quickly there's a lot of even clubs like you know even clubs like Liverpool at time you know Jürgen Klopp on my own there's a lot of events over there there's other clubs there's only really Man City and Chelsea because of the revenues streams as well and United seems to be able to do it can spend the money you know mentioned Newcastle before but there they've got profit and sustainability constraints Everton are wealthy we know our troubles Aston Villa are wealthy we know their troubles I do feel less than a very unlucky though just in terms of I do feel their money problems have come from exterior forces of Covid and their owners so I do feel like they're really unlucky in that form I don't think they've squandered loads of money I think they've been very unlucky yeah yeah I think they've been very unlucky so obviously they've did what Brendan Rodgers say was that worse than what Scott Parker said Scott Parker's been obviously he got beaten 9-0 he got sacked he played bone have played Wolves in the Week and got a decent 0-0 draw so going from a 9-0 to a 0-0 that's interesting but he's been from what I've heard he's been doing this all summer he's been having digs at the border all summer going where's the money and he wanted to have a right go at it because obviously he was that fulham they took him from fulham he was that fulham and I don't know whether he got promise but he obviously understood how hard it can be if you're not back in the Premier League and they haven't done much of anything and this is what happens but I still think you know you can still set your team up to be playing those games and no team should be getting beaten 9-0 no there's definitely ways to stop yourself from being beaten 9-0 you get men behind the ball and you be disciplined and you might have to not be you might have to just suck it up on days you know what today lads you don't say that but you know this is going to be tough games today we need to play a certain way you have to know that you have to know that in the Premier League what did you get done at City five or six or something it's coming isn't it so you have to go on and go we have to sit in here all the teams have done it the nightclub didn't spend badly any money I know they were a different side Brighton who played nice football and had a couple of finishes near the bottom of the league but made sure they didn't ever get thrashed Brighton you just mentioned they beat Leeds one a little weekend did they and then they got beat by Fulham who on the flip side have probably done some decent they've done some decent business in the summer Mark, I was still not happy no and that's right you shouldn't be because you see what happens in the second season of Everton when you don't get what you want they just had a great start but they're having things to go in their way the two goals the other night were very fortunate I admit that they did really well to score his goal but it hit someone and rolled across the six yard box where the keeper wasn't in he tapped it in and the second goal was Lewis Duncan sticking a foot out and putting it in his own net but they've had a good start and the time will tell whether who they brought in is enough they brought William in didn't they and people like that so and as we mentioned before Forrest have brought in 21 players and they've been beaten twice this week obviously Spears and Manchester City so they're going to take time a lot of time to settle down and he's going to have to be working them on the training ground to get something in that we won't know with a team like that whether it'll ever settle down or because it's going to take such a that might be a case of get to that break for the World Cup almost like that pre-season you look at them to play and this doesn't actually matter because if you get a team function and it doesn't make any difference you look at who they brought in and you don't look and go oh try your what they've done some smart business there you look and go oh right but they spent 140 million you're thinking but then they like you that they were a league with that and they had a lot of loan plays lost six plays it's always too early at this stage for us could be brilliant because it could all clear you're looking at Aston Villa another one who don't think Stephen Gerrards overly impressed with their window they ended up with the donker on deadline they kept all the Douglas Lewis he's got 10 months left on the contract just before we finish Arsenal have had 25 million pan for them with 10 months left on the contract but you'd have accepted they've got a couple in that position isn't he they don't need the money maybe it's a show just one of those things with a show of force and maybe if Gerrard is asked for them to keep them then what can you do you don't want to go against your manager it's going to be interesting it's too early but the window is shut and everyone can just get on with playing games or football it's going to be busy now I know there's an international break at the end of September but in general busy now up until the World Cup isn't it there's obviously Champions League football start next week doesn't it so there's going to be plenty of games and we'll see what happens so there you go make sure you get over to 888 Sport check out
