What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
This podcast is part of the Sports Social Podcast Network. Big loss. Dag, do you know what I was thinking today?
Yeah.
Like, we are literally, literally one injury away for Endo or Gravidburg to be playing centre-backs.
Like, if we want Virgil to go down... Do you think we need two centre-backs in Jan? I think so.
Absolutely do, but absolutely no, we won't. I know, but we do need it. We 100% do.
How urgent is Liverpool's centre-back problem and do they need two signings in January?
Guys, let's analyze this for a couple of minutes, right? We have Virgil, who is, of course, on the downward spiral. Now, you can take that how you want, right? But he's on a downward spiral, right? But he's still our captain, leader, iconic legend, et cetera, et cetera. Then we have Ibu Kanata, whose form has picked up, but we still don't know his contract situation, or if he's staying or going. That's it. Leone's out for the season, and Gomez is in and out. He can't play more than two, three games in a row. We really could have, I think, in the next three windows, a whole brand new pair of centre-backs. How do you say four?
Quartet?
No. Quartet? Yeah, it's a quartet.
A quartet.
Not the back. I think we could have, in two windows time, a whole new quartet of centre-backs.
Oh, and that's nice. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Fair enough. I mean, I think they need to do it now, bro. I honestly think if they don't, they need to get Gehi and another in if they can get them in. It's difficult, but they need to get two players in. Otherwise, the season's going to be real stuck.
Well, let's start off with, we'll go back into the lineup for Spurs, but because you mentioned Gehi and we need to do it now. That man Glasner's come out again in the press conference, don't know if you saw that.
Oh yeah, he's not leaving, so he probably isn't. But hopefully, Glasner Fs off as well, you know? To some lawyer.
Yeah, doesn't make any difference to us now. Why does it make any difference to us now?
No, I hope nobody gives a shit about Glasner and they take the money instead of giving him for free. Surely it's valuable to get 20 million rather than zero for him. Surely. And that's got nothing to do with the manager.
Yeah, but they've got to weigh up if that's worth more than the runs there they could go on with Gueye and the team. What runs?
The only runs they're going on is shit? Nope. What runs have they got? They're losing games?
I know. What I'm saying is that's the whole point of it. I think their eyes are on the Arsenal League Cup quarter-final.
Well, that's just the other day. Next day or so, if they lose now, that's all done.
They're still in the FA Cup.
Oh, my God. The FA Cup's not even started.
They're still in Europe. Oh, who cares? Who cares about that? They do. They do. They care. Thank you. I think Gehi will be very difficult to do in January. This is why I want to ask, what do you think we should do?
What is the current contract and transfer situation around Ibrahima Konaté and Gomez?
Do you think we should pursue an alternative centre-back for now and then go back for Gehi? Or do you think, OK, if Gehi can come now and he's still undecided for the summer, like some reports are suggesting he's now being receptive of other offers, what's our tactics now then?
Well, I think this is the tactic from Mr. Slutout, is now maybe he should be Slotterbeck in a new thing. But anyway, yeah, or this, I would get both of them in. If Gehi's coming in the summer for, what's his name? For Gehi for Canati, let's say, right? But these two should be replacing Gomez. Gomez. Gomez is such a big loss, man.
Well, it's going to be. You know, it's going to be.
I do shampoo, bro. Why? Is it good? Thank you. Absolutely. Get them all in. Get them all in. We should just get all of these guys.
Which means get them all in. You famously predicted 7-8 in the summer. I want to ask you, what are you famously predicting for the January?
I think Semenya. I think Semenya in Jan is a possibility. I've got a feeling he wants to come to us if he can't go to Arsenal. And I don't think Arsenal are going to go for him because I think they've got a settled squad right now. I don't think they're going to try and sell Martinelli and all that. Everything's working okay.
