Gab & Juls Show: Is Liam Rosenior confusing Chelsea?
Chelsea financial charges
I think this is a BS punishment, to be fair, completely. That $10 million is nothing for Chelsea. The suspended year-long first-team transfer ban is just ridiculous.
If I'm at Aston Villa right now, or Newcastle, I think like, I'll do the same because I'll pay off some agents so I'm sure to sign Pedri and Lamine Yamal... and then in six or seven years' time, we're going to get a fine and a suspended transfer ban.
World Cup 2026 / Iran
I think it's obvious how silent FIFA have been on this [Iran/World Cup]. But equally, I don't blame them because FIFA want to have Iran at the World Cup. Equally, we're all mindful of the fact that if you have two countries that are literally at war with each other, it's kind of awkward to have one of them being there.
Managerial changes
I'm 99% sure Arteta will be back, and I'm 99% sure Kompany will be back, and Hansi Flick too. Other than that, for me, I think of the top teams, there's a decent chance that many of these guys won't be there. This really could be a massive, massive summer.
CAF title controversy
I think this makes football in general, African football, look so, so bad. It's terrible. You know what? If they're having issues getting the trophy back from Dakar, I'm pretty sure Gianni [Infantino] has a good friend who lives in a big white house in Washington, D.C., who's pretty good at going and extracting things.
Neymar Brazil squad snub
I don't think there's a single player in the world right now who receives more attention relative to his talent and his actual contributions on the pitch over the past 12 months than Neymar.
Ricardo Pepi transfer to Fulham
If you can lock him in before the World Cup, especially because he will go to the World Cup and imagine that he's on fire for the U.S. Men's National Team... the value would have maybe gone up. So I'm all happy with it.
Manchester United new stadium
I don't understand. We saw the mock-up. What is the joke? The joke is that, oh, in 12 to 18 months, we're going to submit a planning app. You've been talking about the stadium for a year. How long does it freaking take to put in a planning application?
Abdel Abqar suspension
I think this is a disgraceful ban. It should have been far more than two games. I'm sorry, you just can't do that. Two games is nothing.
PSG form analysis
I think it's more, again, the injuries which PSG compared to last season have obviously been impacted a lot by. Or if they haven't, like Vitinha, they've played so much for the last 18 months that they are showing it, really.
