Kane could go two games without scoring and he'll still win the award if he has two bad games that's all you remember Neuer so it's just a higher bar I just said was he into the ether it was Dara speaking in my ear that Manuel Neuer got third in 2014 but that's when they won the World Cup it is though because he could be really excited I guess if you're a goalkeeper

as part of a dominant winning side I guess you're not called into action that much but it's probably the crucial saves that you make to keep your side in it when it's tight like Petr Cech would do it Peter Schmeichel did it they weren't in trouble that much but when they were called upon they were excellent Look at like Ederson at Man City how much he was involved in everything the amount of goals he set up big saves at the end obviously they didn't win the Champions League when he was there I think at the time or maybe they did actually push why isn't he involved in it?

But he's kind of discarded now, isn't he?

He's kind of dropped down a level.

Because Pep wasn't having him anymore.

Yeah, Pep just does that.

maybe there is an award out there but it's just not well known that sounds like a sympathy thing it was like I'm going to give goalkeeper something as well this is who's part of it participation thing it's who's part of it but it is I don't know what's going to happen it's true but you have a goalkeeper who's just making phenomenal save after save

But it's a two-voter.

But you probably give it to the fella who's taking a shot then and was like, oh, that's a very creative shot.

they're looked after more than strikers in terms of wages so tonight 8 o'clock Shamrock Rovers against Bohemians the Barry Murphy Derby you could call it I thought it was really a few weeks ago I was like this could be their year now this could be it and look it's not over you were lulled in man not over I was I was I thought they had fixed their ills but maybe they have maybe they have but it does feel inevitable doesn't it that it's going to be Stephen Bradley's side again even though it is early days

There's a good quote here from Adam Reynolds.

Did you see this?

I don't have much interest in how Rovers are doing, only that we enjoy playing them and going to Tala.

I like that little bit of bite.

You know, it's good.

I was saying about like they're kind of slipping up a bit, but it's only their first defeat last week, wasn't it?

yeah where's the winning and losing of this game it's just hard to call because of that mad record in all those derbies yeah so Douglas James Taylor back for Bulls Dale Rooney then the re-emergence of Jack Berman I thought he was going to be finished under Stephen Bradley so there are obviously match winners on both these sides but there's also in-form players away from the collective team underperforming

That's 8 o'clock tonight, Sean McRovers against Bohemians.
