 It is your fan favorite segment, the fan zone, I'm Robert Osora, and I'm sailing out to Itaira Zwayaki. It is zero-zero in the march currently between Leicester and Crystal Palace as other marchers will be coming away. Fulham vs Bournemouth, Wolves vs Nottingham Forest, and then Let Kikoff will be a big one there, Tottenham vs Everton. But tomorrow is where conversations are, Manchester will be playing home to Newcastle and the big one, the El Classico, is back with Real Madrid. And Barcelona tie us, big games tomorrow, how do you rate them between Madrid and Barcelona? Barcelona turn into shacks whenever they sniff Real Madrid, and it's not just average shacks, but shacks that have smelt blood, they go bonkers. They want them badly, they become a super Barcelona. We saw that last season, we've seen it in years go by, but I think the last time these two sides met, or one of the two times these sides met last season, Karim Benzema was not playing, am I right or wrong? Yes. Yes, this time Benzema should be playing, and when you look at Real Madrid, they are complete side. Barcelona are at times a very convincing side, very complete side, but at times they drop the standard. However, I don't expect that to happen tomorrow. El Classico doesn't disappoint. I think Barcelona, the worst they can do, should be a draw, but Real Madrid the best they can do is to win. It's a big one there between Real Madrid and Barcelona, but also another one tomorrow will be Manchester City against Liverpool. And from yesterday's press conference, Jürgen Klopp coming out saying we cannot compete against Manchester City, they are the best in the world at the moment. Is he considering defeat even before the field of play? This is one school of thought that will say those are mind games. Another will say he is speaking the playing truth. They are more or less at par, but well financially, although City have the head start, Liverpool are not owned by a popper. Just remember that the American chap is well oiled. Having said so, mind where I come in is in terms of football. Right now, Liverpool are really not at their strongest, everyone knows that. Last season, if you might remember, I said they had reached their peak. And I don't think many people agreed with me at the time, but now with the benefit of hindsight, I think they can agree with me. Their midfield is so porous, Liverpool. It is so, so porous, it has exposed their central defence. When you look at Van Dijk play, you can't believe this is the same guy who was being linked with player of the year and that kind of thing a few seasons ago. He is so exposed. That problem begins at their midfield. Their midfield is so wide open that the system they are playing exposes them to a lot of wide spaces that end up working against them. If you look at Manchester City, they are a proper solid site and their midfield is proper solid to boot. I won't even mention Haaland up front. Let's not even go there. I won't even mention Filford up front. I mean they are just brilliant to watch. Their passion levels, their self and collective confidence proper high. The tactics that they use proper high. But my problem with them is that they've got to agree amongst themselves when you have the ball up front, for instance if you feel Foden, and you don't have a crystal clear scoring chance, you can always give that ball to Haaland. It's like they are creating a competition amongst themselves who will score more hard tricks than the other. Don't be selfish, be selfless. Once you start playing a selfless game up front, sharing that ball, you'll be shocked, you'll be scoring cricket scores and they are capable of doing that. However, Manchester City will never meet a more weak Liverpool than Liverpool are right now. This is their best chance to beat Liverpool. I know it's at Anfield and that's just like Fort Knox. It's crazy going to Anfield and coming out with a point. Just one point is hard enough, let alone three. But I think City have this one. They wouldn't be able to live with themselves if they don't win this one. But it will not come easy. Well, it's a big one there between Manchester City and Liverpool. That will be tomorrow and then Manchester United versus Newcastle. But big talking point for Midweek was Cristiano Ronaldo scoring his 700 goal. Big for Cristiano Ronaldo. Not many players get to that level. Oh certainly not. And my heart's off to him. He's done pretty, pretty well. Scoring 700 goals at club level. Haaland who now already has about 15 goals out of 10 games on average for his new club and he's being touted as the best new thing since the mobile phone in matters football would have to score 35 goals for the next 15 to 20 years. 40 goals for 16 years. 40 goals for 16 years. That's absolutely insane. I don't think he can be able to do that. It tells you a lot about the measure of the man that is Cristiano Ronaldo. Even though I feel age has caught up with him and his killer instinct is not as sharp as it once was. When we talk of Messi, Maradona, Zidane, Pele, Cristiano Ronaldo will always be up there with them based at least on his stats. They're ridiculous. You can't knock him off. Well Cristiano Ronaldo now is back into that conversation considering World Cup it's just a month away, 36 days to go and the World Cup will be live here on KBC and on Y2F for big games that will be coming for you and will be giving you all that. But also sad news for Broughton midfielder and the Zambiazon Enoch Muepu who was forced to retire just the age of 24 because of a heart disease that is hereditary in their family. The question will be too bad and we are sad for that but couldn't you be cured considering that Erickson is back playing after the episode he went through in international duty? I don't think Erickson's situation or condition was hereditary. It's one of those things that are increasingly happening even amongst the fittest of us even amongst very young people. Muepu situation is one of those things that science just has to say to you ok even if we combine with technology we think the best thing for you is to call it quits for now but you can do other things in football and not just in sports because it's a big thing. Not only himself but also to remember Fabrice Muamba and the case that happened back in the day of Mark Vivian Voin who actually passed on during a game. So for Muepu obviously you feel the pain for him. He was a joy to watch. He was one of those promising Brighton stars that we've been watching over the last, this is on an I think last, he's really made a positive impact and he'll be missed sorely. Having said so, I'm glad they found this situation before it was too late and he can now provide his services as a massive role model either as an ambassador in the sport or just a businessman or all these things put together. He will definitely be in the picture. He will definitely be around for a long long time to come. Well Big Match has 28 minutes gone between Leicester and the King Power Stadium versus Crystal Palace and that game is still at 0-0. Coming up will be Fulham and Bournemouth versus Nottingham Forest and then Tottenham versus Everton a big one that will be coming on at the Tottenham Stadium but a little token point here will be Wolves in discussion with Nono Espirento to come back as their coach after the sacking of Bruno Large. I think it would be a welcome idea for me because they were talking of Lopetegi coming from Sevilla now that he's left Sevilla into the English Premier League and taking over Wolves but I think that was not just meant to be or it was meant to be at some point but there was some disagreement. The truth will come out at some point or the other or maybe it's already come out. Nono Espirento is one of those guys who had sort of figured it out with Wolves and he's a guy who understands that team like the back of his hand. He's the strong Portuguese connection in Wolves he can be able to fit in well it's like he never left and push the team forward. This is a promising side. This is a side that gives you 100% season in season out. We want them at the top tier of English football and having Nono Espirento back for me, I'm not going to be against it and I hope he can be welcomed back. He didn't live on bad terms as far as I'm concerned let him get on with the business. And also Nottingham Forest also sucking their recruiting and the scouting department because they brought in 22 players I think in the first time I transferred a window where you can sign a whole new team of 22 players coming on to Nottingham Forest. Funny thing they gave their manager three-year contracts, new contracts and that's debatable given that they are sitting quite down the log or the league table for that matter a lot of people have supported the idea that he was given a new three-year contract I think the players are happy everyone, the fans are fantastically happy as well but I thought no he could be given another role in the club but at some point you have to say this guy has as a manager played his part I had to use this phrase outlived his usefulness because it sounds like as though he was to be used and dumped when he's not needed but you get the gist of my argument I suppose he has done his bit now you need someone who can keep you guys up and now I'm seeing him struggling as we go forward in as far as keeping Nottingham Forest up is concerned. This is the kind of game that favours Tottenham because they are a bit better than Everton to put it mildly Tottenham tends to struggle against the bigger teams but we are not we are not we are not we are not we are not we are not we are not we are not we are not but on a occasion they can upset them they did the last season to Manchester City they beat them in the first game of season for those two sides season openers This one Against Everton would tend to think I would not accept any excuses if Tottenham were to lose局 Manhand Mr Everton right now because Thank you Lord Tyras, we are out of time actually, that's why we come to the end of Fanzona in the touchline here on Y254, till the next time good afternoon Enjoy the rest of your viewing here on Y254
