What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
The flame-grilled Whopper from Burger King. The most food-filling burger... Is it, though? Is that... Yes. A slightly better version of you. I don't understand. Just like the new Whopper, that's juicier and tastier than ever before.
What challenges is Kyogo facing in his potential transfer to Celtic?
Same, same, but it's different. That's my line now. Oh, sorry. Whopper never tasted so good. Order now on the Burger King app. The Go Radio football show with Burger King.

The weekend is officially here. Paul Cooney, Barry Ferguson and Mark Guidi. Kyogo looks like a no to Celtic. For Rangers, Romains and Chukwani, say yes. Almost 10 days into the transfer window, a third of it has come and gone. Martyn O'Neill back at Celtic. Danny Rule on a roll at Rangers. But Hart's still top of the table. What's going to happen by the end of January? Give them a call 0808 17 17 700. The pantomime season is just about over. the dramas that have happened in the last month or so. Who would have believed it? Mark Cuban at the heart of the story with Martin O'Neill the other day because he came to Glasgow to go to Coscythe. Quite a story when we last saw you earlier in the week. He's back in, had a couple of press conferences.
But last night it looked as though Kyogo would be on his way from Birmingham. But at the moment, we'll hear from Martin O'Neill, looks as though the Japanese striker is thinking otherwise.
Yeah, I think Kyogo was on the radar. Certainly Celtic in the market for a number nine, Paul. They badly need one. And I'm just surprised they've not managed to get anything over the line ahead of the game tomorrow against Dundee United. So it looks like they've moved on for Kyogo, but they'll certainly still be chasing one, if not two, number nines badly needed.
Rangers fans heard the news last night, two on the way, both young, under-21 internationals. Barry, what do you know of the two players?
I know Chukwani played, obviously, against Celtic. I think everybody's seen that tackle that he put on Callum McGregor. But he's a real physical presence in the middle of the pitch, which I think is certainly needed in the Scottish game. Romans is a Belgium under 21 international left back it's an area where I think Rangers need competition so Rangers have started pretty early it's two good young players coming into the club and I fully expect Paul a couple more over the next week or so Whereabouts on the pitch do you expect? I think they'll look to add another midfielder and another forward-thinking player, whether that's a number nine or somebody who can play the number nine position or the wide position or just off a main striker.
So I did say earlier on in the week, I did believe that Rangers would be busy with players coming in, but also players going out as well.
Martin O'Neill will be speaking shortly. We'll hear him. So to... Will, the Rangers manager, Danny Rule.
What early transfer moves has Rangers made in the January window?
Mark, how surprised are you? Rangers have got two players in. Celtic have got one, a Roja before, and that was obviously a Wilfred Nance or a Paul Tisdale loan signing last week. Are Celtic fans beginning to get alarmed? They certainly are calling in here. 0808 17 17 700. Still no movement.
Yeah, I mean, I think what's happened, Paul, given the last two transfer windows a year ago and in the summer, there's clearly a concern about when Celtic get their business done. And Wilfred Nantes said he'd want players in early. Martin O'Neill was appointed on Monday evening. He'd have certainly been wanting a number nine in the door in time to play tomorrow, certainly to be part of the squad. And it's not happening. So, yeah, you know, the Celtic hierarchy, like I said on Tuesday, Paul, if you're a manager, a coach, you can put quality players and players that are within your budget, not unrealistic targets. But then you're powerless. You're powerless. It's up to the hierarchy to go and get it over the line.
And that's what the Celtic hierarchy need to do.
