I'm Gab, he's Jules. Blue skies over West London. Not so much the football club in West London, and we'll be getting to that in a minute, but we are through. We've had a three-goal first leg deficit overturned. Sorry, Boda. We have our quarterfinal matchups, and we'll be breaking... All of that down. Big news out of CAF. Oh, incredible. We have a new AFCON champion. Two months later, yeah. For now. For now. Because you can be sure there are going to be more appeals. We'll get into that. But I think we have to start with Chelsea. Chelsea hammered at home by Paris Saint-Germain 3-0. Obviously, they lost the first leg 5-2. So it was obviously always going to be uphill there. Yeah. We're talking about the game. At the top, though, we need to know about the big news that came out Monday.
They were punished by the Premier League. This is the old story about their 10 bazillion counts of illegal payments to agents that date back to the Abramovich era. They made a big deal like, oh, record fine. Like, yeah, it's not that much. It's like 10.75 million. Yeah. A nine-month academy transfer ban, which I'm guessing does not apply to Strasbourg. And also a year-long first-team transfer ban, which is suspended. So I guess if they make illegal payments again. A lot of times it's because it was self-reported. We're going to look at this a little bit later. Because there's a lot going on at Chelsea. The other thing, I want to start with the stupid stuff. But it was so stupid that I feel like I need to mention it.
Rossignol is getting absolute pelters right now. There was a weird thing with the huddle and respecting the ball at the weekend, which I guess you and Natum talked about on Monday. Now, Was it 3-0 down or 2-0 down? He sends on Garnaccio and he gives Garnaccio detailed instructions. There's five minutes to go. Yeah, they were 3-0 down, yeah. What's going on? I don't know. To give it to Tosin, he's on the shallow by injury. So, I mean, I was just behind him. I could not believe it either, to be fair. And Garnaccio, who then guessed a piece of paper, is walking towards Tosin to give him the instructions. And I guess of the reshuffling of the defense because Chalobah is coming off. But it looks surreal that in that situation,
at that moment in time after pretty much everything that liam rossini tried in this game didn't work out failed um that he thinks it's a good idea at that time caught by all the cameras obviously but every even the chelsea fans who were not far from me could see and were like why is this what is going on here yeah uh we're gonna talk about him some more i you have to i'm all for you want to do new age stuff like like the huddle or or even you know the notes that's that's normal But you have to be aware of how it's going to be perceived and how people are going to perceive you. And I don't think he helped himself there. But let's talk European champions. Mr. Negative, after the 3-1 loss to Monaco, the wheels are coming off.
The Club World Cup ruined everything for us. How close are you to last year's level? Oh, far away.
What happened in Chelsea's 3-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain?
I mean, there was nothing against them in this game. Chelsea were horrendous. In the first leg, it was a bit different. In the second leg, there was nothing. So I want to see a better opposition, a team with more cohesion. I'm not sure if Liverpool will offer that in the quarterfinal, but certainly it's better from PSG. For me, it's still... far from what we saw in the second half of last season. So for me, one of the fascinating aspects were over the two ties, Paris Saint-Germain's expected goals, depending how you count them, were around two.
