Mata niiwezi, In ötita, barsalona did against them in 2011, seven years down the line when the local host against each other. Next month on fourth during the fast leg. Joe, straight into the champions league draw, whatever that happened yesterday, do you expect juventus agenest Ajax, Amsterdam, FC Porto, playing against Liverpool, man United agenest Barcelona and Tottenham Horspers. Of course that English Premier League derby agenest Manchester City. Maad—其m yung par maa Tottenham maganis Manchester City. Tottenham's form has not been that great. Manchester City has been great and for me I would obviously say Man City going through. Porto again is Liverpool. For Porto to get to the quarterfinals is something good that they are doing in that team. We cannot overlook them and just say they are going to be a walk over no way. We should expect Liverpool to win that game but again I believe Porto will give a good account of themselves. And then finally Manchester United v. Barcelona. I think it's going to be a tricky fixture. And on that one you have to be objective, no partiality. I'll be objective. I think it's a tricky fixture for Manchester United. Obviously the strengths in Barcelona cannot be ignored. However if we play against their weakness which will be the defence I believe Manchester United can get something away if we're starting away. But if we are not careful, they are tracking prowess of Messi, Suarez coming into this game, Rakitich in the midfield. They are going to overhaul Manchester United obviously. So it's a wits to be honest but if Manchester play towards their weakness Barcelona weakness, Manchester can get a win. Ronald Okotu and I know that in football anything can happen and all those teams that have made it to the quarterfinals stage of the FIFA Champions League football individual brilliance have got what it takes to get to another level. That's the final stage of the second most prestigious football tournament especially after World Cup. And of course Roma did pull some magic and huge surprise against Barcelona some time back. And you know that not everyone expected that to happen. But what do you make of the draw, your overall assessment about the draw? I think the draws it was exciting. It was exciting to see the way the teams have been pulled and to me the match that will be getting my attention will be Manchester United vs. Barcelona because if you look at the Manchester United I've really clawed their way into that quarterfinal match that will be playing against Barcelona. I think nobody expected them to be there. And against all odds they managed to get some scrappy wins and now here they are, they are going to play against Barcelona and to me it's a team to watch, it's a team to watch even though everyone is ruling them outside out but to me I think that the team to watch probably they might be the underdogs when playing against Barcelona but I'm really excited to see who will be making it to the quarterfinals even though I can predict that maybe it will be either Manchester City Barcelona or Juventus. Prior to the draw, fascinating performance from individual players Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi for Juventus and Barcelona respectively and that reigniting heated debate the conversation of who between the two is the most prolific player on earth. Ronaldo scoring a heart trick against Atletico Madrid to overturn a tunnel deficit that suffered away and Messi also scoring a brace during 5-1 demolition against the opponent. What do you assess about the way the road to the quarterfinals do you think all that made it to this particular point deserves? Yeah I do. It's based on merit. No, no, no, no, it's hard work. I was watching the Juventus game in the tunnel as we were getting in to play the game and you would see Cristiano Ronaldo talking to the players he's motivating the players we need to win this game it's not about Cristiano Ronaldo anymore it's about the team and if you see his first goal again the assist was brilliant for him from the header he's a maverick in this competition Cristiano Ronaldo he's been there he's done it with Manchester United he's done it with Real Madrid and now he has to do it with Juventus on the other side you have a one club wonder called Lionel Messi he's done it with Barcelona a couple of times but if you look at the intensity that the two teams are needed to qualify for the next round for the quarterfinals I think Juventus would have wanted it more and worked for it more than Barcelona did in my honest opinion hence you would say there was an edge to what Ronaldo did over Messi not saying Messi is not great I'm not saying Ronaldo is not great but in terms of the hunger to qualify for the quarterfinals I think Juventus needed this win again is Atlético Madrid if there is a time Juventus have been in crucial need of victories and especially lifting UEFA Champions League title is that time when Gyan Nugi bufond the veteran goalkeeper was still at the old lady I also wish them to carry the trophy just for his sake but since he left Juve are still sparkling of course Paris Saint-Germain French Money Bugs a club he joined her have already been eliminated from the show piece by Man United but do you think Juventus desperately needs this particular title definitely I think they do they do plus looking at the main man Christian Ronaldo I think he went to Juventus for one thing you know to chase some you want to conquer you want to conquer across the continent I think and Champions League the Champions League trophy winning it with Juventus I think that would be a major boost in his career and they are really desperate to go they were up to the finals and I'm looking at a situation whereby the finals will just like I said before the finals will be maybe two of the teams two of the teams two of these teams that's Liverpool, Manchester City and maybe Barcelona or even Juventus so I think it's such a kefere and for Juventus to claw their way up to where they've reached I think they'll not be leaving anything a chance no they won't of course no much English Premier League action this particular weekend Watford playing against Crystal Palace this particular evening Swansea City against Manchester City that is a cup fixture Man United at 10.45pm East Africa time tomorrow of course Sunday Brighton against Milwall then in English Premier League as far as the fixtures are concerned don't laugh you of them Aaron Card Burn Mouth against Newcastle United Man United against Leicester City West Ham United against Huddersfield then tomorrow I think it's sort of fascinating Sunday because it's Chelsea against Everton then Fulham against Liverpool quickly about the English Premier League Grace of course as it stands Manchester City and Liverpool Manchester City the current holders and Liverpool serious challengers what do you make of the rest so far? I mean tomorrow it's a must win for Liverpool Liverpool need to win tomorrow get the slight advantage before Manchester City can come and play their game obviously for Chelsea again for the rest of the top four with Chelsea's win tomorrow it will push them again to fifth position just below Arsenal difference will be the goal difference they need that win again against Everton it won't be easy against Everton but they need the win but more so if you look at the corresponding fixtures after that for Manchester City they'll have to play Tottenham three times twice in the Champions League and also in the premiership they have to play them again so again if you look at those fixtures against Liverpool's fixtures not saying again Porta is a small team but if you look at the other fixtures they have Cardiff they have they have Cardiff they have Sothampton also to play so there are these points that they can pick up that Liverpool can pick up that Manchester City might lose this point so it's very vital right now for tomorrow for Liverpool pick up these three points to guide them through at least to have a gleam of hope because the fixtures that Manchester City will have later on as compared to Liverpool Liverpool have a higher chance of getting more points on the board as compared to Manchester City your team man United is also chasing to finish to qualify for UEFA Champions League football and they are like last show last weekend against Arsenal where they were beaten to kneel also derailed their chances of making it to top four do you think that reality check was awakening call to Olegunasolshia it was an awakening call definitely I mean Arsenal played the best football I've seen in quite a while they outpaced Manchester United wow that is sportsmanship they outpaced Manchester United tactically they were brilliant so it was a wake up call for Manchester United and now tonight's fixture against against Wolves it must be a must win for Olegunasolshia because you look at the race for the top four to qualify for the Champions League and then you look at this other avenue that you have winning the FA Cup and obviously getting a chance even if it's a glamour of a chance to participate in European competition I think for Olegunasolshia he has to look at all these options and also regard the fact that there's a Barcelona waiting so again it goes down to those fixtures those fixtures between the beginning of the first match against Barcelona all the way to possibly if they will get to the finals of the FA Cup those points that are in between those teams those points are needed for Manchester United at least to push for top four finish Ronald Manchester City do you think you're going to retain the title of course Pep Guardiola denying claims that he's headed for Juventas, CU and I I know we read several headlines indicating that Pep might be headed out of English Premier League football to join Juventas but now he says that his key priorities is to help City retain the title and probably live to your champion's league anything is possible what do you make of their potential it is so far well my only concern is they have been luckily winning fixtures though not luckily they deserve it but looking at the way Manchester City are playing right now and to make it even worse they are in the frontage they are once now dictating how things are going I think it would be so hard for Liverpool to catch up with them because Pep Guardiola he's been there before he's won it with Manchester City so I think he really knows how to handle the players when there's a lot of pressure in the team and when it's needed most because I think going into the last stretch of the league and you need all your players to be mentally strong to be physically fit to be dedicated and to just be professional and trying to maintain that focus so that they can win all their remaining matches so I think being a manager of his calibre even though there have been rumours that he may be he may be heading to Juventus and all that but I think his first priority is now to try and win this trophy which to me I think that's his most priced possession live alone even in the Champions League I think he'll be concentrating a lot on trying to win this the IPL trophy so that even when he'll be leaving even maybe at the end of the season or whatever time he'll be leaving I think he'll have left a legacy behind so to me I don't think Liverpool will take this I'm sorry to say that because in Manchester City they've been a club that's been there before and Liverpool bottled it the moment they started losing the previous matches or even getting some poor results man there is this announcement that you know grabbed international headline grabbed international attention and focus the return of one big man Zizu Ruzinadini Zidan to Santiago Banapu to replace Santiago Salari Solaro's been not performing very well with the Los Blancos of Real Madrid insinuit that you know we lack high profile tacticians because why should we keep on recycling these coaches man it's not a amount of recycling I think it's a amount of quality if you have a good man if you have a manager like Zinadini I mean who else would you want to hire and I think Pochettino but anyway Pochettino there's no possibility that Pochettino can live can live Tottenham even though it's an indication that he has a project at the SPAS at White Art Lane but he has to finish fast even though Joe sometimes back say that he's been there for like 10 years he's been bottling something for 10 years and maybe very soon he'll be setting up a bottle factory that's character assassination that's character assassination but I think a manager like Zidini he understands Madrid well I mean he's been there he knows how to deal with the players and to me for Madrid it's about trying now to bring in some fresh players because I think the ones who are there they've overstayed their welcome and it's just a amount of time before we start seeing some new names coming on board so that people are ready to work with the new manager and I think it's the right man for the job Man, do you think heavy remuneration package convinced him back at the Santiago Banabo because immediately after the announcement that he will be coming back to continue being the manager for the Real Madrid there are stand out players who have been mentioned as the targets to head to Madrid one Paul Pogba David Dehaia Christian Eriksen from Spas Eden Hazard from Chelsea football club Kylian Mbappe you know high profile names even Neymar was on that particular list even Neymar on that particular list do you think Mani also financial muscles played a role first of all I would like to disagree only one thing that Ronald Al said for him to come back to Real Madrid it will not be the same way when he got the job the first time because Ronaldo left not only that he came in and won almost all the trophies that were available with the team that was there so it will be a big challenge so now he's coming in to prove himself as a coach you're coming in with a budget of about 500 million pounds give or take euros you're coming in with that type of amount you're coming into a locker room that obviously there's some players that have left Cristiano Ronaldo there's some players that feel they deserve better Gareth Bale there's some players who should be leaving Real Madrid Marcelo is leaving is leaving is going to Juventus Sagiramos again age is catching up so now it's going to be a tough time for him why I say the struggle will continue it will continue because you need now to buy new players you need again to set up a new team they need to gel into your tactics so it's all going to be very easy this time for Zidane I'm not seeing him next season when he comes in I'm not seeing him next season winning the La Liga I'm giving him another season so that he can win the La Liga for now he's coming in damage control obviously reputation it's Zidane Zidane it's Real Madrid it's a perfect partnership but the hard work is going to start immediately when it gets into that dressing room another former high profile player that has left his club is Paul Aaron Scholes English International and he's well known for his criticism especially towards Jose Mourinho one man who also announced international football retirement that's Luis Van Gaal Mr. Philosopher so Paul Scholes has left the club he's lived admiring and being a fan of that's Alham United I think it was by Muchul argument do you think whatever someone showcases on the pitch doesn't necessarily determine how a good manager you can be because even Tier 100 left Monaco after short spell ya it's true you can be good as a player but you can be poor as a manager and I think 100 proved that at Monaco he was very critical critical of father manager when he was giving the job he also bottled it and now he is Paul Scholes I think he just pulled a 31 day challenge he pulled a 31 day challenge I mean and there's talks that he resigned via text he sent a text message to the club to the club owner and to me I think he just he succumbed under pressure because maybe the things he expected that older maybe he didn't get them but having said that I think you can be a good player I mean these are man who's made like over 700 appearances for Muchul United and now he's been given an opportunity to try and maybe be a manager and I think hasn't gone down well with him plus having said that I think he also owns a club I think in the law divisions and we've seen him sucking the managers at his club every now and then so to me he should just maybe stick to what he does best I think that's maybe punditry because having being a player and being a coach those are two different things Louis Van Gaal the Dutchman announced this retirement from football now official I thought he had retired sometime back but now officially declaring that his age is catching up and he won't be making any manager or come back to football again but you know several young players whom Louis Van Gaal gave an opportunity at the tender age especially at Man United you know joining the rest of international battalion to wish him well unlike before Marcus Rashford Anton Marcia you know several players Memphis Depay Memphis Depay Mr. Philosopher was he good passionate at the age factor in terms of developing players I think will football miss him? Football will surely miss him definitely he brought something different into football management trusting the youth obviously trusting the young players Sir Alex Ferguson had done it before with Manchester United he got a very big backlash then but again Louis Van Gaal if you look at the number of people that have passed through you know his courtship even you look at the likes of Patrick Clovert when we start from there look at all these players that have come through you know Memphis Depay now Anton Marcia he has believed in the youth system he has believed in the young players and it's something that the coaches and I guess that's why again Pochettini is not living totem I think he also believes in that philosophy of you know what get good players from the academy system put them in the game believe in them and trust in them and I believe football will really miss him especially European football a few minutes before we wind up the show but before we do Three Lions Gareth Southgate named his squad as they prepare for international break and you know it has also attracted heavy criticism and huge praise of course both in equal measure same inclusions that probably people think they don't deserve inclusion and some omissions that you know people deserve or to have been included Ronald O'Cott England performed spectacularly well during the just concluded workup in rush of course getting eliminated from the showpiece by Croatia at the semifinal stage but what do you make of the squad that was named by Gareth Southgate is a man who's been touted as you know and heavyweight in terms of just like Louis Van Gaan developing young players well I think if you look at the way he performed with the boys at the World Cup I think he did exemplar well and one thing about him I think he said that he's trying to build a team for the future and his sport for choice because if you look at the guys who've been called up in the national team most of them you know the young lads people you know trying to make a name for themselves in the national team and all that trying to establish themselves and maybe get a solid place a permanent place in the national team so to me I don't think the team is that badly off because I mean all those guys who've been called they deserve it and for maybe those who didn't make it it's just a matter of working hard and you know try to impress the coach and maybe you'll get a call up because after all the manager's word is always final and Jo I think you know the call ups to Declan Rice Sancho proves that he's ready to gamble with these players first of all secondly he's telling the football association that we are building as Ronald had said we're building a team for the future however they have to be very patient with this team it's a young team full of vibrant people the likes of Delia Lee the likes of Rashford the likes of Harry Kane I think Harry Kane Harry Kane is one of now the mature sort of James Ward-Prowse James Ward-Prowse again he deserved an increase he deserved he was not in the squad one besak at the right back for Crystal Palace again what Ronald again had said and I'm going to echo is that he has a preference of players to choose from and again sometimes you have to agree that you're not cut out for the national team this selection Garret Sauget not only does the scouting he has his assistant who also does the scouting for the players normally when you watch the English Premier League games you'll spot him here and there so again performance of the team matters a lot if James Ward-Prowse was in Manchester United he could have been picked up but because they're not performing very well with Southampton it becomes another issue I think there's that schematic of how your team performs vis-a-vis your call-up but that being said we have seen surprises whereby a couple of players were picked up Taroski once was picked up from Burnley so we need to obviously understand that this manager wants to experiment a lot with the youth but at the same time they should not expect too much again from this youth you remember what happened to David Beckham there was so much expectations from him and then when he bought a lit up at the last minute he was called all sorts of names after that tackle he was called so many names against that match against Argentina so again this time we need to obviously you'll be patient with this manager he's trying something new and it's going to be great we are winding up I think the same thing is happening back here at home because you've seen some guys being given a call-up and maybe fans have not it has not gone down with the fans because they feel that people will be left out would really deserve to be a national team than the others so I think it's up to the manager to always call those those who we think will work best with him Thanks gentlemen for coming through Joe Sayinaman United supporter and football pundit alongside Ronaldo
