 Welcome to the Premier League show. There is no Premier League, but we're still doing the show, because why wouldn't we? Me and Ned are going to have a chat this week on the last fan standing. The lads have been speaking about Paul Pogbaer, so let's hear what they have to say on that. I think whoever gets Pogbaer, they get in. Man, look, he's made some mistakes at Manchester United, but Manchester United also made a lot of mistakes in how we've handled him and handled a lot of signings and a lot of players, and I think you're going to see a Paul Pogbaer, and everyone's going to go, why wasn't he doing that at Man United? Like the facts are, over the years, there were some periods of time where he was a glorious football player. He was in the PFA team of the year at one point, you know, when he helped us win a couple of trophies, he was on fire for periods, and the soul shy was great. He's had injury issues, which is one of the reasons why I didn't select him as value, and also his wages and signing up, he's going to be high, but you're going to get a motivated Paul Pogbaer, and you're going to get a Pogbaer that wants to do something between now and the end of his career, and I think, whilst I kind of agree with George that he's not that guy to lift a dressing room and drag them all on his back like a Roy Key, he's also a guy that, if he joins a settled dressing room, if he joins a dressing room where the coach is settled and the coach wants him and all that, and the teams play it, like, we gave him Tom and Ian Fred for most of it, like, that's an awful midfield, like you already had George talking about Cante and all that, if he goes to another club, I think they get a Paul Pogbaer that's motivated, and potentially goes on to win a few things, so I think he could be a valuable signing. I'm not one of those that goes, Pogbaer's completely to blame for what we're on at Man United. I think he has to take some responsibility, but I do think United made some mistakes along the way as well, and we'll see that in the next couple of years. Mmm, interesting. Paul Pogbaer, it's obviously leaving Manchester United. Will he be a good shrine for someone else? Obviously he came in at United at a good age and cost a lot of money, and it was always like, he's always waited for him to kick off, but it sort of felt like he never built a good relationship with, I don't know whether he was happy at United, whether he never had a good relationship with a manager, or plays, I just don't really, his question is character to be honest, his question is determining, and it seemed like when he's like Juventus, the first time, he was like he loved his footy, and he got on with the plays and the manager so well, and then I thought like it was when Olly Gunnar Solskjaer first came in into United, he had that spell, he was really good, and it seemed he really got on with the manager, and the manager spoke really highly of him, and it seems like it's just you know what, that relationship obviously didn't last, and he just feel like he's, I don't know whether it's an attitude thing, but it seems like he's got a bad relationship, and I think he's done it at United now, I think gone too far with him and the fans, and plays, and managers, you know we've not got a lot of, you know as much game time as you should if you're talking about his talent, so thinking he's that new fresh start where he can go, go on a manager who can handle his ego or attitude, get him back into the game, and enjoying his footy again, because he's 29, 30 now, you know he's got a few years left, and it will go like that on it, football being football, it goes very fast, so I think if someone can get the most out of him, because he's a very talented football player, if someone can get you know the best out of him, then I think it would be a great signing, but I think they need to get his attitude back in order and get him loving football again. Yeah I mean, you know obviously he was at United at that fall-up with Ferguson, that he went abroad, went to UV, and was sensational that he went to UV, and when United got him back, he was a hell of a lot of money when United brought him back, I was thinking he's, he's got everything, he's seen him for France, he's got everything, you know his physique's fantastic, dead talented on the ball, you know he's seen him win games for France, just dominate games, and you're almost all coming back to United, he's had that grandeur at UV and performed on a big stage under Allegrae, and I thought he'd come in and do really well, and he fell out with Merino, I don't think Merino liked him really because of the disagreements, and you thought Sol Siar would put an arm around him and get the best out of him, and that didn't really happen either, and then Rang Ych hasn't been able to get anything out of him either, and obviously he's come to the end now of his time at Manchester United, but I think for, I think if a club, the talk of him going back to Juventus, there's obviously been talk of him going to Manchester City last week, but I think whoever gets him, they need to have a strong manager, whoever it is, I think you need that, there's obviously the PSG, the stuff there as well, you know back to France, but he'd be in PSG with him, likes him and Bap E, you know his friends team, he'd be able to bring that Champions League to PSG, which is what they all want, he's still there as well of course, so it's dead intriguing, I think where he's going to go, but I do think if a manager can get a tune out of him, you've got an unbelievable football player there, because when he's on it, he's very difficult to stop, but you're right, I think his attitude just hasn't really been there for the last year or so, and I think Grime Tunes will be made up if he goes anyway, because he doesn't, doesn't he? Yeah, I think even then, you're watching for France and he's playing like he did at Juventus or like when he did for the first few games under Olli Gunnar, he's playing like he's really enjoying his football and he will do with France and he's playing for his country at international level, he's playing with all his friends, teammates and all the teammates, big clubs like Benzema and Cante, all top top players, and I think United, he's probably got this attitude or this thinking, I'm better than this and that's probably why I disagree with managers, but I think if he goes somewhere, he's got a manager who can control that attitude, not so much that they've got a bigger ego, but they've got like, they're a big manager, they're big, like highly respected, someone like a Carlo Ancelotti or someone who will go into the dressing room and say, I'm the boss. So if he goes back to Juventus, Allegri's back there now, someone who's had them before and you look at that obviously, PSG things a bit up near because obviously they don't know whether they're sticking with pot or chin or maybe he knows being mentioned there again, so he's not going to go there but maybe he knows so. It's going to be interesting, but he's got that relationship with Juventus fans and Juventus obviously and you know the club obviously love him, obviously they made a lot of money of him so I imagine to get him back when he's still still a talented player and obviously he's got that relationship with Allegri anyway so I think I think if he goes back to Juventus it could be a good signing for him, you know probably be already one of the most talented players in Italy I presume, so if they can get him back playing which probably more possible than a lot of teams at the moment and still obviously a top team, then it'll be a very good signing. Interesting one, interesting. Make sure you check out the rest of that video on the Beffick the website, the link is in the description below, go over, comments, what's the video, it's good, it's a good chat. Another thing that lads have been talking about this week is Ushmain Dembele, he was being linked with a move from Barcelona to Chelsea, he was talking about French players then with Pogba and he's another one who falls into that hugely talented French player, you know lightning quick, struggled a little bit with injury over the past few years but the last couple of seasons has got his game together again, you know we had that terrible injury when he played nine games a couple of years ago but he was back, he had a strong season, not the one gone the one before and then that he's followed it up again this season so I mean he's 25 now broke on to the scene, based on to the scene at Wrenge was excellent for them, then got the move to Dortmund and then got that 105 million pound move or whatever it was to Barcelona and hasn't quite gone as they hoped I think at times of Barcelona but if you get him right he could be a fantastic sign for Chelsea. Yeah it was so highly rated at Dortmund and he was a young player but he was like so bright, big athletic, he's so so fast as well and obviously got the move to Barcelona he's had that injury but you know he's playing again and last season 20 appearances which is you know it's okay in the top side and I think with his with him is it obviously you've got the 13 assists playing with with other top players but you know I think what Chelsea need right now obviously they haven't got like a 20 goal a season striker I thought they thought LaCaca was going to be that so I don't know whether to be hanging on to LaCaca but he's another player who can come in and probably create more chances he's not going to he's not like a prolific goal scorer like 20s a goal scorer he's I think he only scored one last season but here's that player who can come in and add to the attack and obviously they've got you know have it scored eight, made some amounts scored I think made some out what might have been the top scorer with 11 goals so players who will score goals so to add to the team and add a bit of quality would be would be good and be good for Dembelly to kick on and try and get somewhere we can be in the first team and and and help the squad out. I think you make it it is a dead interest on point what you said there about the goal scorer because obviously it looks like if you believe what's going on in the press it looks like LaCaca could be going back to Inter on a loan deal they can't afford them obviously Chelsea had 100 million pounds transfer Chelsea had one big money back but they don't really have a striker the you know have it like you say it's more of a 10 but he did play like a false nine for them last season through the middle and you tried way in a day but he's better wired you know you've got pool of shits out there hudson of doys at Chelsea so you know if Dembelly comes in he's another wired player who goes to the middle do the push way in an inside and have a fluid front three or do they go looking at seeing them linked with the Charleston and everything but he's another player he plays wired false winger isn't he yeah you know Dominic Calvert-Lum is another name that was mentioned but he's more of a back to goal type striker but then he probably will benefit from crosses and and so Dembelly does so it Chelsea are an interest on one because they were a team and they got Rom last year I thought they would push Liverpool and City for the title and the first few months it looked like they would but they fell off a cliff it yeah to be fair to Chelsea they lost both wingbacks they lost James and Chilwell and that did hamper them but Rom never settled in early did he ever had a really poor season so I think they started off obviously they had I think the defence were and they were so one of the most like solid teams and most hard to beat teams in the league and you know they obviously they scored a lot of goals against Norwich I couldn't even tell you I think it was like seven or something wasn't it um but you know I think they are missing I think they do miss a prolific striker if they want to like try and push for the league obviously City don't have well haven't had that they might have that now with Harland but like they won the season and with like you know folding, chipping in, sterling, mares, Gundog and Bernardo Silva obviously De Bruyne got quite a few yeah because you get goals a lot of goals yeah well who's got it but they didn't have that like prolific 20 to 30 goal striker a season which you'd expect to you know a winning a winning you know a title winning league that teams are have but I think with Chelsea they've got a lot of talent out wide and they do create a lot of chances but I think they do need a I think they are missing a 20 goal you look at Liverpool if they need to above them they obviously got Salah and Marnie and they got other players who chip in with which Chelsea have plays that chip in with goals but they don't have that one that just will score them 20 to 30 go the season but Dembele in terms of the player he is I think he could be really good for Chelsea but if I was if I was looking at bringing players in for Chelsea I'd be one in a striker more to be honest there is there is that talk obviously the striker the talk they're going to need defenders rather because obviously gone off to Real Madrid Christiansons are a contract they've got a couple of other issues Aspel Aquetta's getting older defenders are what they need as well but also I guess the striker like you say but I think he'd be dead interested and I think if he went there because I think he's a player that athletically and physically I think he can play in the Premier League I think he looks like he could shoot it obviously like we've said that there was that concern a couple of years ago over the injury but he seems to I think he's played 60 games since the injury or something now so he's got that game back in his legs so it's going to be it's going to be very interesting to see whether he does it looks as though according to sources the deal is getting close now so I think Chelsea did get him and he's worked with Tussials before as well at Dortmund so I think so I think he could be an excellent sign and the final thing they were talking about on this week's last fan stand I want you to check it out is quite a controversial one this just because it brought up by the Chelsea lad on there is did Chelsea have a better season than Liverpool now what it's been based on in this argument is that Chelsea got two trophies that they didn't have before which is the the Super Cup and they won the World Club Championship of course they lost in the FA Cup final and they lost in the Carabao Cup final and finished third in the league so the Chelsea lad on there is kind of saying you know what a season they've had really did the frustrated because they didn't run the top too closer but they've ended up with two trophies and lost in two finals on penalties they didn't really lose the finals they lost on penalty shoots out that's his angle whereas when you look at Liverpool Liverpool got to Champions League final they played in every game played in every game they got playing they were runners up in the Premier League they won the FA Cup and they won the Carabao Cup now okay albeit they won them were outscoring the goal and on penalties but they won them they won it Chelsea didn't score a goal exactly Chelsea didn't do it either so Liverpool won them played in every game they couldn't got to the Champions League final so if you if you had to if you had to say who had the better season in your opinion who would you go for it it depends which way you look at it it's in simple terms it's clearly Liverpool they want to domestic trophies and they finished higher in the league but if you're looking at Chelsea I think third I think if they obviously the two finals went in the top club but if they hadn't won the Super the Super Cup and they hadn't won the the World Club Cup I think they'd have been you know and then they went and lost the two the two other finals domestically they think they'd been a massive failure they'd have expected at least third in the league with Liverpool and Man City being the teams they are they but they just won the Champions League um obviously Tuchel's first Tuchel's first full season spending 100 million pound on a striker who didn't go very well I think they basically had a season which was Berm and I remember to be honest they won the two trophies they expected to win um playing they weren't playing a Liverpool or a city were they they didn't finish above Liverpool or city which is like the the go the two teams to finish above so I wouldn't say they had much of a successful season they played they played every game domestically that they could at Liverpool and they got knocked out in the quarterfinals by the eventual winners I have to allow to be fair if you've been ultra critical of Chelsea Db3 and the look and then you get in the bare about stadium you should have closed the game out really and they didn't you know and and then obviously be sure but if you look at Liverpool they won the FA Cup won the league cup and just fell short of the league they're pro as a team or as a club they're probably thinking that's not a successful season we wanted we had the Champions League final and we were pointing out the Premier League we beat Tottenham and we beat Westam away so obviously they got beat or other games they got beat or drawn they win the league but Chelsea are probably thinking we've had an okay season we had a good season they're finished third one to one the super cup in the world club cup so Liverpool are thinking one two we should have won a question hang on hang on I agree I sort of agree what you're saying and I agree I think personally I think Liverpool had a better season personally for me if I'm making that decision but I'm not convinced Chelsea will say we've had an okay season I don't think they will because I think if I was a Chelsea fan I know what the Chelsea fan did and if I'm looking at it then as a neutral and you look at Chelsea and you go they would have expected a challenge for the title when they got real carcumin things like that they didn't do it they didn't and Christmas it was they fell away they got the two cup finals domestically yeah sound but they lost both of them and he went out and of course the final of the cup so I think they were looking a bit frustrated that he was so far off the top two having spent money and that he he lost both finals to the same team yes they're playing the top side in Liverpool but they're the top side they've got top players so they'd expect I think you'd look at Chelsea and go they've undercooked themselves a little bit there yes they've got two trophies but yeah at the start of the season they're probably expecting to be a lot closer to it especially the way they they got off to a good start they'd have been expecting to be a lot closer to the to the to the top two teams but for them they've basically got like a minimum of what they expect finished there don't finish below any teams that you don't like you don't expect to finish below yeah yeah and remember what you can and you want to trophies that you'd expect them to win I expected them to at least win at least one of the two finals against Liverpool they didn't fair enough so for Liverpool I'd say Liverpool had the better season unfortunately for us I don't know what there is what it is I agree I think Liverpool did have a better season there you go let us know what you think you had the better season out of Chelsea and Liverpool you know does the well club cup and does the european super cup is that better than the FA cup in the carabao cup I still think Liverpool who were very close to win the title and got to a champions league final I think that's a better season for me but do you think Chelsea will be closer to that do you think they can close the gap between the top two in the season I think to be honest I think it's too early to call at the moment you've got a way to the recruitment don't live up to look like the sun and down and noon as yeah for whatever it is the 85 million or whatever it is and I'm not going to lose my night of buying and stuff Chelsea are in the infancy but so we've just talked about them below they're looking at centre backs yeah so I think it it I don't think you can say it this way we're in June you know the second week in June I don't think we can we can start putting predictions on I think what we can say is City and Liverpool will be going for the league again whether Chelsea can get closer to them depends on the recruitment process but it's going to be an interesting summer that's for sure so yeah there you go let us know what you think make sure you check out the beffick that last fan standing
