I'm fascinated by this. That game is unbelievable.
What is the point here?
It's right off the tongue.
They needed the vibes, man.
Now that he's hopped on the magical plane across the England.
Hello and welcome to, I think, what's episode three of Outside the Box? I think it's four. Is it episode four? I think it's four. Ah, episode four. Oh yeah, we had one before Christmas. Yeah, we did. So episode four of Outside the Box. Very welcome along. Ben Symes, how are you? Mark Davis. Matthew Brennan.
Yeah, yeah.
No, never better. It's all good. I'm David Wilson for those that you don't know me and some Celtic fans have been getting on to me in my DMs recently. Tell us more. About my understanding of the Johnny Kenny situation, which... I don't know. We can come back to it another time. But yeah, basically last week, if you didn't see the pod last week or didn't listen to the pod, we were chatting about some transfer rumours and I thought maybe Johnny Kenny should get himself out of Celtic. Of course, he went and he scored at the weekend.
And those Celtic fans in your DMs would probably claim that he's now found his level, which would be totally inaccurate.
Yeah, totally, totally inaccurate. But yeah, Johnny Kenny obviously scored the weekend and Celtic linked with numerous, numerous players over this last January transfer. But you know, we're not really here for Celtic transfer rumours. We're here to speak all things Irish football, all things outside the box. So kind of without further ado, really, we're kind of thinking what, you know, we were chatting beforehand, obviously, we do put a bit of plan into this kind of podcast and we were chatting about what should we talk about. And in the last few hours, it seems that Evan Ferguson's time at Roma could be coming to an end. Yeah, it's slightly more in jeopardy than perhaps it was last week. Yeah, so I ran home in the rain and I managed to go and get this, pull out this Roma shirt for maybe the last time I get a chance to wear it.
So, yeah, Evan Ferguson, it looks like, we don't know for sure, but, you know, they've made two signings in the last week. They've signed Daniel Malin, Roma, and they've signed Rubinho Vaz from Marseille. Marseille. So they've invested heavily in their attacking line-ups. And just to get straight into it, Daniel Mallon scored at the weekend. Ferguson was kind of out with that sciatic nerve problem he's had. And yeah, we don't know where he's going to end up this side at the end of the transfer window. Ben, what do we think? Do we think he'll still be a Roma player on February 1st or 2nd?
Well, you're wearing a Roma shirt to reference his current loan spell. I'm currently wearing a West Ham jumper, which references his last failed loan spell.
I'm wearing a blue jumper to reference his parent club.
Yeah, which also hasn't been going so great in the last couple of months. yeah I think judging by the signings Rubinho Vaz they put 25 million in him it's a lot of money he's a young player he's four goals in Ligue 1 before he's come over in about 12 or 13 appearances that is a signing where you've gone that's our number 9 for the next however many years the Daniel Mallon one is the same thing there was a couple of other clubs linked with him he didn't want to go there because he wanted to play as a number 9 Roma said come to us you can be our number 9 and he scores a great goal on the weekend to be fair to him he should have had two he was unlucky to have one disallowed just prior as well should have had another I think Evan Ferguson needs to get out of Roma purely because of those two signings I don't know if you saw Antonio Arenas also made his debut the other day 16 year old Australian first goal was his first touch so they're now all of a sudden out of nowhere have a barrage of strikers Artem Dobrik isn't going to come back for another two months but that's another person when he does come back you're vying for one striker spot in Roma we know this by now and now you have the guts of five strikers battling
