The semi-finals are heating up. The tabloids are on fire right now in the UK. What are you making of this controversy? Is Jude and Tuckle kind of bust up? I think the English team will not survive this. I think they're falling apart. After Norway, Tuckle guy, his post-match interview and he's a pre-fiery guy and I also think that sometime he kind of comes off a little bit like he doesn't quite know the impact of every English word he's saying. Although maybe he does, people have been saying he has Jose-esque mind games going on, but he was basically like we didn't play that well. We know technically we were bad. We didn't cycle the ball enough. We made a lot of mistakes. He also was incredibly complimentary about their effort and their mentality. They immediately took those quotes, "Randid Jude" belling him and they were like, "Yo, what did you think of what Tom said about you guys after this game?" Jude kind of took a subliminal at Tuckle's not extraordinary playing career and he was like, "Well, it's really hard playing in these conditions and maybe he would know that if he played at this level." Now he didn't say that, but like kind of like that. And because we have this vacuum over the last couple of days, the English media has blown this up into crisis in the locker room, crisis between Tuckle and Bellingham. They're calling this princess Diana too. I believe they are. That's the headline in the Guardian today. I think this is much to do about nothing. I think that that was actually like a pretty normal quote. They didn't play that well. It was a weird game. It was 100 degrees or whatever with humidity. In Miami against Norway, I don't think it was like watching peak Barcelona. And I think he was probably frustrated with some of the football he saw. And it's not his job to be like we get a pass because of the weather. He asked it to may have more from them, especially if they want to beat Argentina. Shocking stuff indeed, Chris. Shocking. What about you? Did you think this was bullshit? Or did you think it was like actually spoke to like a schism between the manager and the best player? I think that the British tabloid press literally killed our princess. The Princess of Hearts. Generally speaking, if you think about the 1970, was it four final or when you know to build sent in or build whatever the name of the journal. Yeah. Send in sounds like a Dutch footballer, but build is the news. Yeah. Yeah. Stefan DeBuild. Yeah. And he's literally decapitated about four people. Yeah. During his short run at Manchester City before charges were placed for cocaine trafficking. Anyway, they said play idea. Oh, well, I have a screen play idea for you later on. Here's the thing is like everyone like I'll contrast it with the way that all the casuals and yanks and I don't know some people like think that it's it's Israel or something. Now it is messy is Israel or something. They're all making the Argentina team out into a villain right now. If there's any squad that will not ever be affected by people not liking them is the Argentine national team. I think if there's any team that is vulnerable to media circus, it has troubled England in the past and the funny thing is in 74, it was the other team sending the sexy girls for the sexy girl pool party to sabotage them. But England is like their press just does it to their own team. But Chris, I got actually because I have a couple of contacts in the media. One of my good friends actually a mentor of Pierre's more peers Morgan. I have a couple of I have a couple of covers of some tabloid bombshells that are going to be coming out and I think we're going to break them here first. But like yeah, I just saw a couple of these and I just wanted to get your reaction. The sun is dropping this tomorrow. A bezza beds naughty nanny. Apparently Jude Bellingham has slept with a grandmother. This is the second time of course this happened in the England team. The first one was Wayne Rooney of course. How can we forget? The man was a romantic. But that's not all in the daily in the daily mail. I think we can expect this. This is just an absolute bombshell. Yes. A tiny tuckel tits and boogles. It should be and boogles Sam not in boogles. But apparently Thomas Tuckel has had a wild night out. It seems like there's two factions in the media right now there's kind of the pro tuckel side kind of I don't know maybe the you know just more pure kind of and then of course there is the you know the woke side that's taking our captains side. This is what happens when you let a Jerry command our boys. Yeah okay. Of course let's not forget there's in the US tabloids this is this will be dropping tomorrow. World War II, German soldier discovered in Queens of course and you know ice gets a bad rap but they are getting this man out. It wouldn't rock wouldn't let me say Nazi. Also I tried to use more of the I tried to use claw and they were like this is this is actually dishonest making fake news but rock was a rock was like not see discovered in Queens. There's one one or two more actually I just these are just real quick I just wanted to show you okay and then of course this is a the Sun has I've just read my first book and I said I I guess they didn't do it right but I asked them to have him holding the book upside down okay let's keep going enough enough of the jokes. Yeah I mean but in reality I think yeah we'll see if it has any effect on the England camp it doesn't really it's not real but like on the other hand Argentina being being painted out to be the villain if there's any team that doesn't care it's that team I don't think that that'll have any effect on them if anything it'll make them more pissed off. I haven't even seen that much of a narrative yet building it I mean like the Maradona the ghosts the all of that stuff like it feels like that that is almost like fallen by the wayside because of this too cool belling thing which I don't think is a real thing and so this is actually shaping up pretty well for England I think not only do I think that they probably are superior for both side right now and if they're if they're healthy enough if like rice can play you know like they they should be in good shape for this. I think I've got five seconds of the of the man I love yeah I know I mean this is the thing that's been sort of strange about these semi-finals are incredible but we have a bunch of players who are basically dragging their bodies to the finish line right now like Lumin and Saka and deck and all these guys. What do you think is what are you expecting from this match on a football level? I mean I think we should just rather we should ask how each team wins I think that's the easier way of doing it. In general I think Argentina is looking for Messi too much right? I think and it's a they're far too predictable if their patterns of play just let him find the ball okay just let it happen it's gone okay. Are they going to play like a four-man and midfield, one of those match-ups, like Sam put that in the document, we get to skip that part. I don't know, who cares what we think about DePaul versus McCallister, or versus Anderson or whatever. Just like all of us, like we're watching the TV, but we're like looking for the little guy, right? And we just want him to get the ball. I think the defense is kind of doing that as well, and I think that they have to kind of trust their other weapons. Like, I really think Alvarez's looked great in this last game. England, on the other hand, didn't look sharp for the entirety of that last match. It was a fucking slug fest. They've now played in, I said this before, but if they can get through the gauntlet of Mexico city, then Miami and July, and then beating Messi, and then beating France or Spain. Or Spain, then they, like, you can't, nobody can put any ass curse on it and sports history. Anything. I would like to ask the, I'd like to know if those guys felt like Miami was harder than Azteca. I mean, it seemed dog shit. It seemed awful there. I mean, I mean, genuinely, and then you, of course, have the ghosts of the 255 beautiful boys who perished, Erwin John Phillips, Philip Jones, Michael Lancaster Ford, you, of course, you have Adrian John, Anzlo. Who good for you? Okay, but yeah, but like beyond all of that, like, I, it doesn't seem like either of these teams are like, like buzzing, right? So I don't know how to call this. If I had to, they had to choose, I choose England, Jude is, is, do it. He's kind of on the ZZU trajectory that we've been talking about throughout the tournament. I'm in love with, I'm really in love with him as a player. And beyond that, like him, he is the de facto, he's become the de facto captain of England, beyond being the de facto, like, on the pitch, being like the best player in this tournament for them. I really just, they need, I can't call an Argentina match. Like, because it's like they're playing with like magic beans and fairy dust right now. Like they're coming back from two goals down with like 15 minutes left, the Cape Verde out match. Like the, the, the Swiss match was just like week, we could talk about the red card. It's kind of like in the past now, but like, I did, there is something kind of, there's, you know, cards for simulation. Yeah, I mean, like that's, you just, a one hand, like football is full of injustices on like a daily basis. And if you watch club football, you're just going to go crazy thinking that everybody is, there's a conspiracy against the team you root for on the other end. That was just one of the most insane cards I've ever seen pulled. Even if it was a dive, it just wasn't a yellow, I don't think. But certainly not that game state. I think Harry Kane deserved a yellow. It, you know, earlier in the tournament. And then Jets fans, that was a real foul. And I don't understand why they just allowed that penalty. I mean, the man would never go down. Yeah, but I genuinely speaking, if it gets to like a like a sticky game state, I think Argentina would be perfectly comfortable playing for pens with, with their like, with Emmy, having the best, like, having the best kind of penalty keeper kind of we've seen in recent history in the tournament, you know, I think, I think England wins in regular time. Yes, and I think it's, it's moments, guys, it's June. It's, it's June. I mean, like, Jude has his moment. I kind of think, I kind of sketched out an idea of how Argentina can win though. And I just want to like, just real quick, I know we don't have a lot of time. I just want to read it to you. Interior, Tel Aviv, Israel, Mossad HQ. The head of the Mossad sits at his desk, the phone rings, Mossad Chief. Hello, Prime Minister. Our man has touched out in Dallas. We hear Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's voice muffled, he's furious screaming. Sir, project Freddie from Germany was run by amateurs. We've got our best man on this exterior, vacant parking lot, garage, Dallas, Tuesday morning, 0600 hours, Mossad Special Agent, Mark Gaye, he stands alone. He appears impatient. A shadowy figure emerges, hands him a briefcase, package secured, a car arrives. He gets in, he's whisked away. Cut to interior, the manhole, downtown Dallas, leather daddies caress each other's bodies, bottomless moose, bottomless poppers, a tomuffinland illustration come to life. Gaye is mesmerized by their bodies, house from music pulsates, in Gaza, they throw them off the roof. A gorgeous oiled down musselman approaches, he's glistening, Mossad acid, Shalom penis, the password, Gaye, penis, Shalom. The Mossad acid, hands Gaye Adossier, Gaye scans the room, in a world of betas and softies, it feels good to be in a place where men can be men. Mossad acid, let's not have a repeat of Benghazi this time. You're a loose cannon, but you're the best man we've got. Stay for one drink, Gaye, listen, you piece of shit. As much as I'd like to stay and play grab as I have to go, messy needs me, Israel needs me. I've got a world cup to lose. Do you think that I just want to note, just one note, the games in Atlanta, so all of that somehow, I thought it was going to be like an Oswald thing. That's why I was. Okay, listen, I thought it was Dallas, listen, to me as a coastal elite, that's the same place. Yeah. All right. Yeah. Let's go to France, Spain. Do you or is there anything else you want to say? No, let's do France, Spain. I just, I think, I don't want to like say this too many times, I just, I do think, I do thinking when we'll be Argentina, and I don't think it's coming, where's it coming? I think it's going back to the winner of this next match. But after the end, you think it's coming after it goes to France or Spain, will it come home? I don't think so now. Yeah. I think they keep it. I can't, I cannot find daylight in this next match. I, I think that Queen Elizabeth was a loser. Okay. And we got a new man in charge, his name is Charles. And guess what? We can expect every World Cup from here on out until the, the Megan Markle takes over as the next. Okay. Anyway, the beautiful pod is brought to you by Fandall on the biggest stage in the world.

Frantzbane, a replay of the semis from last year was what a match that was kind of the arrival of Yamal. If I had to, I kept saying witness, witness, just the kid from Akron, Yamal was phenomenal in that game, he's not fully fit, he's kind of coming off of injury. But we did see Nico Williams at the end of last match and once Marino and Williams came on, I feel like they looked completely different class than the team we've seen thus far. Hi man, Arsenal's own enterprise Renekar associate looking at Mikhail Marino cannot stop scoring. What a player, Arsenal's best striker, sorry about I'm talking about Arsenal. I think Marino and Williams can be game changers to them and I don't think that the golf of talent between France and Spain is as big as if assuming that they're playing a big part of the same final. I think that this could be way more evenly matched than we think it will be, but because I said that, that means six-nil France. How are you feeling about this match? I think these are the two best teams in the tournament, probably the two best teams in the world in international football and I can talk myself into either side like getting the advantage here we are also now at the culmination of probably the two dominant, I mean, Spain obviously had to rebuild after they're like the Tikataka like dynasty that they had and an incredible run of the NES to Shavi, Bouschets, Fabregas whole thing, but I feel like they're rounding back into like top form and France has been on this kind of incredible run since 2018. I think that France will win, but there is definitely a scenario in which like Spain would beat someone nothing, you know, or Spain beats the depends. I think I keep talking about it and being wrong, but I think this will be the one match where if Deschamps goes with the two-man midfield, Spain as a possession-based team can overwhelm in the midfield and I but counterpoint the drinks breaks makes that much. harder. I think Spain is a team that wants to strangle you for 45 minutes and pass you into oblivion. Have you chasing after the ball, expecting more energy than them? It's harder to do when you have to survive just 20 minutes. It's been cool actually seeing the four quarter system kind of evolve, but like in the like, for instance, in the Mexico match, like England needed to survive the first quarter. Conversely, in the Norway match, Norway kind of gave them the ball, and then second quarter came out firing, right? Which I think is the way more mature, smarter like coaching plan, actually, which was in 100,000 degrees, let the other team kind of run around and circle around and then just go health health, health for broke against them. Strength of schedule, we saw Spain has beaten Portugal and Belgium. France really has beaten nobody to be fair. And you know, like the against, if you want to say Morocco was a real team, the only guy that could score wasn't playing, right? So, you know, I genuinely speaking, it'll be really interesting to see if the shops keeps going with just like a two men, like double pivot behind basically like four insane attackers. And if he does that, I wonder what that looks like against Spain. And I wonder how much room to be coming back for this, right? Two amanias. I think two amanias supposed to be healthy for this game. So I don't know if that means Konae drops or what? They have to fist his fists has recovered. Yes. Yeah. Their, their depth is just, it's just too overwhelming. I mean, like, I think that there's like a three one France win and there's a one nothing or pen, Spain win. That's that's kind of how I'm feeling. It's either not that close and France is easily the best team in the world and what are you even talking about? Or like you're saying, Spain keeps the ball, doesn't let France have any incredible counters and just and just leads them out. Yeah. In the last round, like, Spain conceded for the first time in this tournament. But unisamone looked dog shit. For some reason, they keep like demanding to start their third best keeper. I don't understand why they're doing that. But in a penalty shootout, I'm taking magic, Mike, you know, if they're using some, it's two different types of depth, right? You have depth across across the front line, France, and then you have depth across the midfield with Spain. Yeah. Spain's got the deepest, most absurd midfield in the World Cup. They do have sort of a mid defense. They just can't get into a shootout with France either. Like, they don't have the goals to get into it into a three two, you know, like, I don't think they have that goal scorer on the side of all these other teams in the semi's due. I'm saying McElmerino 89, a brave one. No, he does it again. He really is. How does he do it? If you look at his McElmerino, like, wins the World Cup for Spain, I'm going to freak out. He literally looks like he's like, I'm here. Like, here are McElmerino's per 90 sets amongst midfielders shot attempts 94th percentile goals 100th percentile defensive contributions 65th aerial duels 1 97th percentile chances created 77. He's, uh, he is a juggernaut on paper. Yeah. Uh, I think it probably is effective maybe by usage rates, uh, uh, that like benefit your per 90 sets. But, uh, in general, like, uh, I'm really, I'm saying France probably, but like, uh, I don't know how to call the other match. Um, in general, like, how do we feel about like, you know, we, we had this conversation earlier, like, where you want, you know, there's a natural kind of, uh, uh, you know, romance about, uh, minnow or, uh, you know, kind of a Cinderella story, but like, in reality, I wanted these four teams to be in the, in those quarter finals. And I wanted to see these guys cook. And, uh, I, I don't know, like, how are you feeling about this? Like, uh, yeah, I, I, I want to be more democratic about it and, and say it would have been cool if Norway, even with my England fandom aside, like, if Norway had gotten to the semis or if Morocco had gotten to the semis again. And the truth is, is that I want to watch Messy versus Impape. And, and I really hate that it had to happen the way it did with, with Switzerland. It was like, that could have been a really awesome World Cup match that kind of got, got, got real weird, um, after the sending off. I don't, I think the round is 16. This worth a Cinderella's can, can check out, you know, and, and, and the quarters. I don't really want to get into, um, you know, having Porto and the Champions League final. Like, you know, if, if, if I'm being honest, like, I think, I think the way that the tournament is set up, it's so long, it's so grueling, it demands so much endurance out of these countries that I kind of want to see the best of the best right at the end. Yeah. The only example I could think of in, like, international football is, is Greece. Oh, too. Yep. Is that right? For the Euros? For like any, or Greece, oh, for, I mean, I'm trying to think of like any, like, Euros, Copenhagen. Yeah, I mean, I honestly, at this point, like, over the last, whatever eight years, I would, I would honestly consider Croatia to be one of a great European side. This moderates team is, is like, they've, they've, they've, they've been, they've been, they've just got to the final, forgot to the final, but they've been in and around, like, semis and finals for the Euros. And, and Sam, what's the last example of, of, like, a team that's not like a top, whatever, whatever the equivalent is of top six in international football? I would say probably Chile, winning back to back Copa Americas in 15-16, was the closest to like a dark horse winner, but Chris is shout-out Croatia is right for your two straight semifinals at World Cups for a country that small is incredibly impressive. Yeah. Well, I mean, you didn't compliment England about that either. I think England are doing well in the World Cup. I think they're going to beat Argentina. I think Spain are going to beat France, and I think England are going to beat Spain. Did you hear that Chris? He's sucking up to you. Are you going to cry if they win? Me? Yeah. I don't think so, but like, let's see how good the Wonderwall is afterwards. I'm kind of sick of Wonderwall. I'm kind of sick of it. Do you want them to switch it up at the very end? Yeah, I want them to switch it up into, yeah, sex pistols. I am an archaista. Do you want to do any happy trails for teams that lost over the weekend before we get out of here? Norway, Holland, I like you now as a guy. As a guy, I like you. You've convinced me this summer. I like what do you think about Holland as a player in a World Cup quarterfinal getting yanked? I don't know. I think about Holland playing for a team that their ownership is actively funding a genocide right now in Darfur. I think about that. I think about Pep, having the Pep, Pep, leaving honorably. No. I thought that Holland, yeah, why do they pull him? I actually think it's tired. You know, the truth is Chris, the exuberance that we're displaying in this episode is because it was a shit quarters. Yeah. It was an amazing 16s, an amazing 32s. The group stage was amazing. I think it was a shit quarters. It's too hot. It's too hot here. It's too hot. It's too hot in the east coast. It's going to be hot in Texas. I guess it's good that I presumably Arlington and Atlanta both have some air conditioning. So it won't be sweltering. It's not that. It's us dealing with the reality that we're not, it's going away. We're not going to be able to wash bowl, right? I just started John Adams for like four weeks. Yeah. I'm doing John Adams HBO right now because I need something after this. I'm doing Antonio Irial. Irial is first press conference over and over again. And then we have a Jose Maria three-part documentary. How was it? Was it good pressure? Yeah, it was cool. He was just like set pieces. Yeah, we're going to be we're going to be a river river pool. We're going to bring it back each going to be twist and shout. It's going to be the Beatles. It's going to be what do you say? He said that you're going to lose 10 in a row practicing a psycho psychopathic kickoff routine. And then you're going to be yourselves again. Yeah, that's a piece. He's a great, great hire. I love that hire for for Liverpool. Yeah, I don't know. I'm just sad that we're not going to be I'm going to miss the I already missed the World Cup. I was depressed last week. The one day we didn't the first day we didn't have a game since the tournament started. There was that one day. I think it was Wednesday. We didn't have a game. I was like, I'm going to kill myself. I think I'm going to really, really miss it. I'm really going to miss the I was in Philly over the weekend. And like there were four or five bars in this neighborhood that I was in that were all spilling out like hundreds of people out under the street watching, watching England Norway. And I was like, this is this is crazy. This doesn't have like this barely happens for the Philadelphia Eagles. Yeah, you really more than the Eagles. I think it's just summer. People are day drinking. It's nice out and everybody is like gotten into this and started to like right at the moment where I I think it's reached its peak, it's going away, which is always the way with the World Cup. - It's just hard right now, 'cause we're losing ball and Lizzie Graham hurt. You know, I was, we were texting about it. You said he was your favorite one. - He's my favorite senator, Everett. - No one of my first thought was when I heard he died, as it said, lost a big talent. Liz and I didn't think he was a good guy, but Liz, he was a razzle dazzle. - He was a razzle dazzle. - Anyway, guys, we'll be back Friday. We are having-- - In person. - In person. We're having a finale. For his and I are wearing suits. We're gonna have celebrity guests, Charlie XCX, the weekend, who else? - Karen Bass. - It's LA, yeah, Karen Bass. We're gonna get, who else? Kassin Vanderpump rules, who else? - A show day with Tony. - Yeah, Van. - Yeah, Harvey, Harvey from TMZ. - Maybe Bill will come by, who knows? - I thought he's Mahalo style right now. - I mean, he's a mysterious dude. You never know where he's gonna pop up. - You think he's, Bill comes back from vacation like you know when someone goes to Jamaica and they have like a shell or they have like cornrows? - Yeah. - You think like there's gonna be like a Hawaii style thing. He's gonna be like a Bayhain. Or like, I don't know if that's a real word in Hawaii. But it's like a Buhu, it's like a Bucco Bayhain. I was on vacation with my friends and we kept making up fake Hawaii words. It's probably offensive. - Were you in Hawaii when you were doing it? Or were you in like-- - No, no, no, we were in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Yeah, a Buhu, a Bayhain, a Bucco Bayhain. Yeah, dude, whatever. Cut that, I'm sure that I'll get Chris in a lot of trouble because it was his idea to say that Hawaii stuff. So it's been a great world cup and Chris and I are doing a daily transfer, daily four hours every morning. - Yeah. - Twitch stream. - Twitch stream, us for Breezeo, David and Warren's scene. - Yes. - And shot us to Jimmy, South Civil. All right. Why, why, I just, I'm tired guys. Sports is going away. - It's back in like three weeks. - For what? - The Prem. They're going to die. We're going to have eight players injured. That's how I knew England were going to win. I was like, Saka and Rice aren't injured enough. - Literally. - What's wrong with Rice? What does he have? - Back, nerves. It says, no, he's not nervous, he would never be. It's what's it called? - Does he have explosive diarrhea? - Why was he being isolated though? - No, that's Gary Linnaker and Paul Pierce. Do you think Paul Pierce and Gary Linnaker ever like squatted up and they're like, that would be great. If we got the two of them together, like a 30 for 30, like short. - Yeah. - They kind of like win like Kobe and Shaq at that first, like that special. We got Linnaker, Paul Pierce, the diaper boy, the diaper boys. - Great podcast. - What is this a podcast with him? Should I ask him if he was linked up with Linnaker? - You should ask him if he knows who Linnaker is. - I would like to know who Linnaker is. - I mean, I'm sure they're on like the list serve. - Turn on the WhatsApp. - WhatsApp. I mean, I put my pencil in an episode of Come Town. That's how I know. - Yeah. - You're on that WhatsApp. All right, brother, all right, partner. I'll see you Friday. Guys will be back Friday, preview the finals. We're gonna do an awards show. It's gonna be an award show for, we're gonna have most of the players that are out in the world cup live and present.
