Well the South American sides of interaction in fact Peru are in action right now just inside the last 20 minutes against Croatia Peru a turn up and if I can hold out Wayne What a night that can be the what a day that completes the South American sides because that will be 5 victories out of 5 for the South American seems. Perhaps an even bigger issue than the coming World Cup I Ain't No Mountain High Enough I know goal wide enough to stop you doing a Dyna Ross impression of same the nagger though it's a. Good disco dog and I'm a nobody told me I was doing pretty much it didn't have enough football boots it was raining the board is slippery and I didn't realise how far away from the penalties what the goal mouth is once you get there and your face by an island incidental Yeah goalkeeper and. Excuse why go yeah OK the 1st one the 1st one was only inches away yeah only inches away I try to do you know. A load of nonsense in his face you know to put him off and everything and he'll say Oh just just just go straight down the line just hit it in the middle. Think you know to the right of him and I just missed it by a couple of inches but the 2nd one I admit was miles away that's because I go into this thing I was thinking oh let me do away really you know when when really does. As he approaches the poor try to do that so it's a good way really even think about where they go mouth was not how we move on. I just told us I don't feel it in preparing the defense. I don't that sound like a prepared speech to me in case anyone does know what we're talking about a reminder Can I just measure how far it is from the ball. 234-567-8910 you 9 should join me on the left hand side of the right hand side and show you the constable having any say would probably be the moment legs are having the go because if you go what if I go the right way I think about a chance of saving OK I'm going to try and watch your eyes. I'm not nervous Minerva's would I be nervous you know going to score is a challenge yet come on they should challenge me on Challenge OK Right that's it no this is this is for real now this is true he's challenging me he reckons I'm not going to score because somebody just hold the marker he reckons I'm not in school yeah this is true this is true. I'm messing around now yet you would prefer I'm not going to school now that's not true I've been there for 12 hours today I mean it's from school well I'm just published I think he's only probably saved one of my panel things OK So you know very good hockey is going so he said tearing up on the place with the last thought but you know let's talk a little and see what your mind is yeah he what you are is good insights are actually looks and she said she had tried these things are going to put it all right I think if you think the left you're going to go there right here and that's OK What you see I do know I said. Oh yes. I don't know what's going on but he's not very happy he's in the nets is in the corner of the net he's come off I mean he's no very happy and so. It was very music for us to watch so I always in the now. Still in the know there we go could. You want to go you're going to go. For more go of all God Oh my God Yeah you know I was on the spot until just before you know this is it this is to win the World Cup for England. He steps up what is right but. Is ended up in the Manchester ship canal be on it we're not going to get the ball. Don't think that you can apply for a new ball let's go miles. Could have been turning 40 Can haven't. Given the recycling me out you know things like yeah that's what the best the best bit best for me was You missed the you missed the penalty and then you know in a fit of absolute rage which you tried to fire the rebound as well I mean. You do understand well these families are off again you understand the rage Yeah you do understand the rage I didn't want possessed me I did want into the Gaudet lot you Kimi did in that World Cup when he scored for Nigeria because a body gave a net Shay Given stood there with his arms folded like where you go you go off behind me if you want to do that you go to the I was side of me. Kero this well. I think I think on your pre-season it's the Scot now yeah yeah well he's nice and that he's go some ways we're seeing that video it's all goalies a little bit away you know in training for the next season and. 50 he's just talking about I remember the phone number 080859 I'd say it's not true like joining a guys you know it was 100 years. Exactly tomorrow. The former Tottenham Hotspur and Northampton F.C. Footballer all to toe he went on to become the 1st black officer in the British army. Lost his life on the fields of Flanders exactly 100 years ago today. Says Keep that in mind as we have this well for war fighting as Remember that others sacrificed a lot for us to be able to enjoy this wonderful game and enjoy this wonderful country as well keep that in mind so let's go to some of the questions that we've already got their fired in already from listeners this is from Carl and he says question for both contributors in the spirit of international break which country do the pundits think have the most potential about becoming a strong competitor in the coming years in their region that's a good question be a strong give side growing interest in the game or rather it doesn't necessarily have to be a side which qualified for the tournament team you go 1st. Well I suppose that the side that's made most progress over here is Venezuela because it was starting from the lowest point and football in Venezuela 20 years ago really was hardly on the map it was it was a supporter It was a sport kept alive by kind of immigrant communities of like Portuguese or Italians or Spanish or whatever but the mass of the population were much much more interested in baseball than they were in football and now you don't Venezuela last year there reached the final of the world under 20 Cup and they're going to get to World Cups in the future they've they've made terrific progress so and I think there's still more to come you know not withstanding the economic problems that the country is going through the one South American nation that you could really see winning the World Cup that hasn't already done so would be Colombia Colombia has the 2nd biggest population in the continent outside of Brazil it's it's a football crazy country it got the bug light than the south coming in Argentina and Uruguay and playing catch up for a while but you know 1st World Cup quarter final in Brazil 4 years ago and what a result today you know you go to France you're to kneel down and you come back to win 32 that's a real result to give Colombia hope for the World Cup I don't think they're going to win it this time I actually hope they don't win it this time because Carlos valdés ARMA has promised to shave all of that hair off if Colombia win the World Cup and I think. They can do that so I don't think is going to happen this time but that that that's the one nation that could add to the titles you know Brazil of $15.00 and as a couple each for Argentina and Uruguay Colombia have the potential to be the South American nation to have been one to the list of all the hair of if they do win the World Cup They've got with the World Cup Now if they don't know if they do if they do in the world knows or even if they don't win the world you know we're. Going to be there what about from you in your region of Europe. I'm going to. This is an easy one really for me but with a caveat. I think Turkey have got an excellent and excellent core of every very young inexperienced at international level players that. We've been saying this feels like we've been saying this for 2 or 3 generations now with Turkey and they always manage to find that even more ridiculous wait to not qualify for the nation Solomons but the likes of you so if you as ichi OK you're crucially they go so you into at the center of the fence and assume. Who's being super for Rome that they seize all of these players most of the 2021 years or older and as a look an awful lot of talent in that in that 2nd side at the moment and make challenged rescue having not qualified for the World Cup through them all into it in Antalya against the Irish and they won one nil. Now the problem really is an institutional problem with with Turkey and that tends to be disparate groups within the national team set up. That tends to be groups based upon affiliations with various seems very strange for most. Nations I think or football fans of most other nations around the world that. Certain players would be if they sit with certain officials within the Football Association and managers have their favorites and of course the divisions a cup level a slow srong that it's hard to sort of meld those players into a cohesive footballing unit when they come together for the national team and we've seen issues in recent seasons that would would make you mind Boucle really you know in terms of clashes between players while on international duty but even more established players like hack and shall have no clue is only 24 years old so there is a unity should they get the right the right coach of the Michelle the cesky. That somebody that can really heal those divisions that have come about in recent seasons or certainly worsened in recent seasons that Turkey could really go on to become a strength in football is such a massive massive thing over there I think you have to really go there and experience what football is like to understand and I think if you saw the Munich. Cash game in the Champions League recently I mean they were 7 or 8 down at one point and it was still the loudest stadium in in European football history you know and that's the kind of religious fervor that that people who follow football in Turkey bring to the game and and you know the Turks are incredibly Patry all sick and it doesn't matter which side of the divide they fall on that club level they want to see a Turkish national team do well and and and really they have we seen players come through before. Ones and twos for Turkey that have gone on to do great things but but right now I think Turkey have a core of young players that can go on and really challenging particularly that you know that they want to host the European Championships in 2024 if they given that they they hosted a youth World Youth Cup recently as well if they're given that opportunity ahead of Germany to host that and I think that would be a real boost for the game over there even more so fingers crossed that they do manage to get that would be a great place to go in and watch a major tournament I think Bush excess. Responsible for cats gate and. I'm sure that same you know. Him sees this every week you know the narrative and I'll. Just ask him to join his radio something you know he's played there was a there was a cat on the pitch at the Vodafone Arena in Istanbul which by the way is an absolutely stunning stadium on the bank that is also has for years a slave the list because around the coast. Account found its way into the pit and in typical jobsworth U.A. For style they were fined there's apparently something Frank elations that that you know allowed any animals or a page where you can get fined for it if a line was sold to the page they shouldn't find them. Well I mean it was a you know that's not possible and it was a domestic cat I didn't know what kind of a cat I just saw. And there's nothing get him Tim's famous last words do you remember when Public Enemy used to say Terminator X bring that beat back. As you draw to bring this thing back to them bring that back which And any particular beat yeah be where you went on about South America. Getting a clean sweep in the international break going to bring that beat back. Now the South American World Cup qualifiers the teams of that have qualified for the World Cup final. Yet to bring about did you know in charge in China anything he didn't write. Another matter believe. It Or is sound no losing to coalesce around and this is the national Thanks a column and done different points in that one. Didn't go to the Internet just check yourself. In a kind of. Saxon as Harry Thomas paid for I want to mention. That Richard in Oxford is with us good morning Richard good morning guys how it very well good is ridge a very legal question in the interest of what actually go ahead yes this question came about through the scenario where there are strikes parents and prayers and formations. Trailer which he paid for a fight for me personally are you believe that there are formation macaws if you're going to have her in caring for you or about friends you're going to sacrifice even worse all of us for the progress of a ship whereas are still present for for the phrase the best Malaysia where you can get which are very chary better. Rush right Sterling carrying all the same thing so I was wondering for the rest which countries Larry agents are going to work up have a similar problem in terms of a star in the right formation prayers. Which prayers start to take in those positions and also see if I might add with your permission Richard which of those 2 formations you mention is the most likely to be played in which a region that we're talking about here 1st of all yeah I mean I think we'll see an awful lot teams play a 3 at the back of the well Cup I think we've seen a almost a seat pains to. So that. Kind of thing whether it's a 343 or a 352 A variations thereof is is generally we seeing and seeing an awful lot more that the example that came to mind was funnily enough the one that Simonson just now was it was France now I mean France have a real wealth of talent huge huge reserves of talents and it's not an easy job. Even with slip down to a 23 let alone a starting 11 he has a mean he likes a focal point to his attack he likes root there was a curious situation when Sure it was a bit at Arsenal that she was playing for the national team ahead of lacquers that who had taken his place in the Arsenal team which you know goes just goes to show the you know managers have their preferences in terms of style and formation Now if you play Giroud as a focal point and I mean that played a 4231 today with can say and then that's the double pivot and then Griezmann pay and to Malema as the 3 Behind series but then you know you have December and you know who's been in excellent form like a set who's injured but will probably be be back in time for the World Cup This month Amberley didn't play today and you know if if you if you switch that 2 or 3 for 3 or 433 I think you've got an opportunity to push further forward and Griezmann and maybe with a lack a set saw is so difficult and so much of it does fall on on whether they will be at all flexible in his tactical outlook but it doesn't look to be the case to be perfectly honest c he's pretty much set in his ways and well I think Griezmann playing almost as a number 10 as the you know 2nd striker I think is a waste. I think he needs to be further up the pitch by then and by pay has been in sensational form for P.S.G. As well so is it is a tough decision for England I think there was something of a tweak today based on the fact that hurricane wasn't available I don't think we'll see a front 2 of Rushford and Sterling I think that I mean I know Rushford started every game I think under the south gate but I think that will start with depending on the form in the last couple of months of the season I think you'll start with a 343 with Cain through the middle and and either rush that will link up one side and Sterling the other so yeah I mean it's I was surprised the performance was pretty good for 70 minutes today and so invariably the number substitutes interrupted the flow of the game. But I was surprised by the personnel and I could only think really that Southgate wanted to see a number of players in this game will go for a more something more like his starting 11 or at least the majority of the starting 11 that are available starting on Tuesday against Italy and from your region Tim. If you play a qualification campaign of 18 games and at the end of it you don't know what you're formation is something's gone badly wrong and something went badly wrong for Argentina because they got to the end of 18 games without really know what their formation is they changed coaches 3 times along the way and some Polly who came in for the last few rounds and is the current coach and he really wants to do what he wants his team to do is play about 3 because he wants to push high up and he wants to play in your off the field and he's finding it very very hard on the last time out in November when they played Nigeria the defense just absolutely fell apart with his back 3 and you had to wonder if you know for this idea that he wanted this high price you had to wonder if he had the players to play that white 1st of all his midfield were pressing very well 2nd he didn't really have the pace in his back 3 to. Play a high line so I dropped deep and thirdly doesn't really have wing back so he was asking wingers to play that role and so they were having to run back 18 meters and defend at the end of it so lo and behold against Italy Man City Stadium. At Man City Stadium there when we mentioned cat so I just want to wonder if we're going to have Pavlov's dog there from from from. But he's he started from scratch so he went with a back 4 so and here we are that's a new formation that he the he's trying less 100 days to the World Cup and that show it my in my and out working I think they were better with the back 4 and Italy were very good Argentina 112 nil Italy clearly in a bad why after failing to qualify for the World Cup So it's really weren't very good but I think the the probably the more conservative idea of the back 4 and having cover along the entire defensive line. Is probably the way that Argentina will have to go but finally in the run up to the World Cup Some polie will have time on the training field with his players and he says he's making it clear he doesn't actually want to play these games he doesn't want to play he didn't want to play Italy today airplanes flying on Choose day doesn't really want to do that and what he certainly doesn't want to do is break off his training camp in Barcelona is going to tell of even played and plays royal on early in June he doesn't want to do these things what because what he wants to do is spend his time on the training ground and that's why I'm here because he still has to work out what he's based formation is going to be and whether it's some Why that he can find the players to play the way that he would really want supply and Richard of course Gareth Southgate might say to you we were in the Netherlands. Yeah straight a tree we're talking it seemed like Tim said you haven't qualified for the World Cup You are very like that and not got the quality of prayers that they heard maybe 4 or 5 years ago so yes it was a good performance. You know in the back of courtsey team or better quality team would they have heard much the bowl as they heard in the game again today so. I don't know I don't think so I don't think so but then you know like I said Richard I think I think that this evening was about south looking at the French play as you know probably foremost in his mind how is is whistling down the 27 that were called up for these friendly games dance 23 still doesn't know who his 1st well maybe he does but we don't know who his 1st choice goalkeeper is going to be that was Don't pick that 2nd the England captain I you know we all know the trouble that Joe Hart's had this season he's been. You know so anywhere between really awful and pretty average at best so one of the 3 pope picked for the 2 Oberlin they're going to come in in between the posts but they've got 7 now 8 international caps between them which poses a problem all of its own you know we had full full backs essentially on the on the pitch at the start of the game I know Joe Gomez has played and will go on to play a sense about more but you know trippier. Rose and and goannas in a in a back 5 you know you know when backs and back 3 so I don't think this evening was about. Necessarily about about the victory although you'd rather win than the not I think it was about having a look at those French players with a view to who is not going to make the squad for the summer and we've got 3 friendlies remain in before the World Cup but only one before the provisional squad is named so I think that's foremost in the minds of most coaches at the moment swizzling squad stands 20. 3 And I said I think against Italy a very very inexperienced It's least quote by the way you know they they haven't qualified for the World Cup and it is the 1st time in 50 odd years or whatever it is OK and you know we've got an opportunity there I think to see a more settled 11 from from from Gareth Southgate although England did well enough I think this Richard thanks a lot for kicking off the world for Wolf early this morning by the way thanks very much was more calls please 180859 or 96 not 3 talking about football in Europe and South American of course the international friendlies ahead of the World Cup It's got a lazy far lot of headlines for us as Alison his home digital all my smartphone and tablet this is B.B.C. 5 Live.

Sports. 28 The Australian The Great Race come and pray and I was listening reaction coverage from. The U.K. This is B.B.C. 5. Point 5 I will football 30 this morning is Europe and South American players from over there playing you know who the legendary sim victory over in Rio take care of your South American questions and preserve their playing in Ali's And we've. Got to Sarah's pull pull Sarah's head in the U.K. Trying to declare an interest this morning for a change. No honey. Mention Joe hot Well we were talking about England I know you say you mentioned Joe Hart. Mentioned in that was declared an interest Talking of which actually and Jesse he said just bear with us one second and the reason I say please bear with us because if I did he most always charming is that when you get an e-mail from one of the your long time listeners and this is. Shark name is shark or presumes he love the show and the podcast has been a Saturday morning treat for me for years I had a question for Tim as some kind of drink with a coup wouldn't come up I always see Luis Suarez drinking I believe it's called Matty a lot of South Americans seem to be found fond of it can you tell me more about this but let's ask the sales poor 1st of all though because you know this wire is a South American players only in Europe so it is so Martin Quito So he went abroad Well yeah. Infusion like a cold tea I guess yeah However as well as pretty much alike and how bright is that Tim That's that's correct and it's almost like a religious ritual in Europe why they all wander around with these flasks you don't wander around like Karen O. Flask with and it's really really important to their culture and they'll say that you know if you're in company then you'll sit round and pass the matter around and guess the conversation flowing and if you're on your own it it gets your thoughts flowing so it's something which is very very important to their culture there are other parts of South America that do it but no way no one takes it quite as seriously as you're a guy and the Frenchman we were met mentioned already Griezmann played with so many your requirements in his time that he's almost like a doctor going to Europe going identity if he could not France and he well he wanders around little flask drinking as well he's picked up a matter a habit. Jesse in his thing Good morning little wonder you are you done I'm all right there's so much I owe you. My boats answered some of the commanders. Well you can play you've been playing tonight you know not going to Texas. Because I'm just going to exist doesn't mean you can't play football you know he's got the. Whole Sex and the home. And this is going to. Start So blades on the. Grass is really dry sections Regulus. Regular were studs OK but my favorite films are seeing James Dean in giant that's what Texas is like his is is basically barren and this is all everywhere and of course is Rock Hudson and. Yes or yes. As they say said some people who should be destroyed. I said it's an illness I'm an elephant understand I was doing it I don't do to deserve it so called me back the ring goes dog does is to be cool by the way mad at me anyway Jesse goodes Rigi God. Because you can pretty much always like asking questions about the game in England yesterday you know and particularly really just because it's believed that they watch a lot in the United States. People but they're going to Europe or Asia as well as South America and America but. Things are reaching more the more I want to discuss the success or lack of the national team I always ask this question because I like to get that kind of thing as a pundit. My question this is this guy was only an opinion about it and I said I was not really playing abroad meaning I'm tired of the U.K. When they play in South America or if they were to play like Spain Italy and I believe like I would that really help them and improve and actually winning their national tournaments or maybe even have been a good one in the world from the European Championship for me because I feel personally not the highest level looks like it on paper they get you know the stars but I feel like if I have a player like Carrie Kane a lot of the I want to have eliminated only battling I would kill leanings or even in Turkey playing in these environments that are not like. They're learning something new pics of the new tricks or to help England now do a lot better and catch the international tournaments. Unusual good to Tim 1st will bear with me but a pool table just a. I would I think that this would improve English players in 2 aspects one is is football football experience and specifically football experience and the example that comes to mind is what is how Gary Lineker developed when he went to Barcelona how he became a much more complete striker in terms of his movement in terms of understanding where he could move in making one run for the defender and then breaking away in another round fought for the ball so that I think there is all there all kinds of football experience that you learn from from. Being open to other cultures although I think some would argue that those other cultures these days come to England but only because there was a saying think I was going to say that the other aspects that you can't reproduce is life experience and I was having a chat with Alan Shearer about this when I was back for the World Cup draw because this is a question as always nag in my mind do you think you know when it comes to tournament's that English players just not used to being away from home you know if they're away from home for 2 or 3 days or some of that it's a disaster so when they go away from long for long periods they're just not used to it they don't they don't they never had that experience in their lives. And then I asked him about that and ether Yeah it is you know because they get bored or something and you know and. Thankfully I think things are changing now with the England team because at last they've got a process going on where the the criteria for play selection is not just based on club performance it's based on having a huge structure where you're promoting players through that structure and I think it's great that England won last year you know they won almost everything they won the World under 17 Cup the world on the 20 Cup and so on they didn't used to take these tournaments particularly seriously now they are now there is no guarantee that those players especially under 17 ones who are so exciting there's no guarantee that they will develop through but you have given. Those plays the experience of a tournament both the football experience of Atonement how different games have to be approached in different ways but also simply the experience of being away from home for a couple of months and honestly think that that is something which is which is has been greatly lacking in me in me in the life experience of English players yeah they fell drop the bomb dropped the bomb to member go go music from Washington D.C. Ports remember no talk of music Trouble Funk drop the bomb Yeah and the bomb in this case is the name Alan Scherr So when I say when I say to him drop the poem you should How high should he name drop the book and you get me to write it anyway he furrow infer exactly where those say that he would I knew they would say South America or take it from a South American perspective varies as you go go abroad to get these players but he himself acknowledges the experience the international experience in cultural differences in football comes to us here in England now certainly so worried do we need to go abroad to get that experience he talks of well I mean. We learn an awful lot with with the advent of more foreign coaches coming in to coach Premier League teams and and players coming in from over there and playing in our leagues but this is no substitute comparable to actually going and living every day in a different culture different language you know so few players. When he went to the U.N. System he said well it's no different it's like playing in a different country you know we saw your eyes that you know one you say this is so many times that. You would have I think. I was I was writing something this week actually about about players that you didn't realise was still playing and one of them was Florence in I'm up on goal been playing. He's been on the whistle stop tour of all of the strange and unusual leagues around the world he's been in India he's been in Malaysia and and he he won the Golden Ball at the under 17 World Cup back in 2001 and. If you look through the list of players that were on that just off on a tangent here for a moment if you look at that the list of players that that won the Golden Ball of under 17 level one half of the mean Ever hear of again so rather than holding great hope in the end the 17 England team that won the World Cup last year and you know you look up to the on the underside when season you'll see that. The the success rate of those that actually make it at the top level goes goes up but there are many coaches that have come over here I'm going to Clare an interest here because Pep Guardiola said it this week he said English players need to go and play abroad they need to go and learn different footballing cultures. And that will help with the evolution of the England national team also we don't have a winter break which is a minor but important detail but mostly we have prioritized our domestic football over international football we have we have put the importance of the Premier League product there not to say that it would but that's essentially what's happened over any potential success of the national scene but the biggest biggest percentage of non English players playing in the league much more than in Spain and Italy and Germany and we don't really have a culture of having recently was nothing more. Encouraging for people to get behind the national scene than than them to actually win something and for the most part in my lifetime. National team have been a disappointment and the way things are at the moment I think a lot of English football fans see international breaks as getting in. In the way of watching that club team and the tribalism comes. You know. On a Saturday afternoon week after week when you follow your club scene and not with the national scene and obviously there is to that but that's human of of England but. I was I was quietly confident that England would perform well this summer before the seat and I saw the team she and I thought you know what was was going on and then we played and we played pretty well so well Tim said this is a horse that has now of a plan in place whereby we're taking age group players through a lot of the 11 this evening on even playing 1st choice for the club teams but they're playing for England and they're doing a good job and you know I think that's important to see a pathway through to a full international states assert the younger to have got to World Cup semifinals is not a disappointment not every team can win the World Cup but I wouldn't know it was 191990. 3 doesn't remember he wasn't born or some of it was one of us remember it well a violent person maybe Jesse you're calling out from a U.S. Perspective in PAP's that question is more personal and if you know my me suggests is a to the U.S. Team. Is it important for you would the international seeing Team USA improve if more of the players should Team USA played abroad which I think they do many cases many of them but would it improve if more of them played abroad on or. Absolutely 100 percent and you get it right on the nail he can't send exactly where my point of the story when asked this question because a lot of us International's passion president one or 2 out of maybe 20 or you know handful that go abroad one or 2 will be successful and I think that translate to the national T.V. Obviously they didn't qualify on of a very weak I'll be honest and a very weak qualifying campaign it's not that hard to calm thought of concrete have almost 3 or 4 guaranteed to make it and the fact that they don't have continuous players in Europe or even in the more competitive the that. Shows goes to show you that they didn't qualify that lack of ice a lack of just shocking lack of confidence. Tim says it's just personal life experience they don't learn abroad. They lost a chance a bagel. They didn't lose just this and qualifying cycle they had and want to games and I think 1990 I want to say or 9092 where I want to actually carry that being to push them through to 90. 9 could at least progress so it was in 96 I want to say I actually think something once. I kind of like I don't want to step on. Toes who have but the 2 things I think for the U.S. Men's national team the main issue for me the way that I see it is the Gold Cup concave Gold Cup every 2 years it's played in the USA The USA have got a monopoly on hosting of the Gold Cup and obvious to the when they go to a World Cup the USA This is the only major international tournament that they play outside of their own shores now if you have to go and play in the Caribbean or you have to go to some pederasts or in Honduras so you have to go to Costa Rica and stay there for 2 or 3 weeks and and play a competition I think I think that this this this is is huge in the development of play is to to face that kind of adversity throughout a sustained period of time when when you're playing in in the U.S. It's all very comfortable and another thing that that does for me is that it's skews the reality of the U.S. Status within Kancha Now the U.S. 100 xico have been head to head for a long time in the Comcast Gold Cup and I appreciate that Mexico gets an awful lot of support particularly with games that played in Texas and in California with the huge. Migrant population Mexican population and other Central American nations too but it's an awful lot different to have to go to Guadalajara automates coast city and play in a competitive game everything. 3 days you know and and I think if the Gold Cup was shed around amongst the constituent nations have come to Cafe appreciate the sun con the fall to host it and the US doing everybody a favor in that rig God I think that we would see the whole reflective reality of where the US saw in comparison to that neighbors and you know really because I when I act. I am sorry to jump into a 2nd time because I did call maybe a year ago or 2 are not budging These are members I actually know about the fact that they were thinking toying with the idea of combining. A lot is possibly in adding like a couple of numbers from the molester he get numbers from and make is not legal in Mexico and possibly adult and I'm a lot of I know the travel is hard in this in that they were discussing something they are doing some type of turnabout like that in content. I think there's a future I think at a club level I think it's it's the future the ovo the travelling user is a huge huge problem and distances are just vast so to do it on some kind of league basis I think the travelling is is prohibitive for that for the time being but some kind of tournaments for this is for club football not not not so much for national teams up I think some kind of club tournament would be so good for both sides and you can you can see it happening you can imagine it happening. There's a lot of heads to be to be knocked together but I think it's a future there and thank you Jesse appreciate that those cowboy designs on calling if I can just one point on that I mean if you look at the Concord Cup Champions League since the year 2000 it's been one. Every year apart from 3 by Mexican seems no U.S. Team has defeated league and next team in knockout phase of the count got Champions League in living memory I think again before and the last clubs want to consider mixing it with the big boys of South America they need to start actually performing in these these 2 legged ties against Mexican seems because the way things have been for a very very long time and they're less clubs are way way off the pace when it comes to matches against their Mexican counterparts and also teams from Costa Rica as well so yeah I think rather than getting hammered every week by the big boys of South America they need to look to start dominating their own Confederation before even considering the Frys all in Birmingham says from your ISP are 2 regions which nation if possible do you think has any real chance of winning the World Cup for the very 1st time such a Belgium or Colombia and your thoughts on why the Colombia Colombia from yours a Belgian viewers who you know. Yeah I mean again on paper Belgian looks to be the choice but. But behave heavier. The 2nd part of the question before you answer. You've each gone for Belgium and Colombia respectively Europe and South America to see that you think has a real charms of winning the World Cup possibly for the very 1st time however this is the flip side of fuzz questions your thoughts on why they can or can know when it also took a year ago I go far seeing as they haven't won in Young's they somewhat have the potential to sail through unnoticed Tim. Yeah I'm very optimistic about Europe why I'm just in the last few months they've completely revamped their so I admit you're going to have this process in place especially on the 20 sides and they keep producing players and that's how a country with a population of just over 3000000 keeps punching above its white because they're producing these players and feeding them through and that they've that they've got such a talented generation of midfielders suddenly emerge they beat the Czech Republic to nil today in China they're playing wilds on Monday so that might be a chance for U.K. U.K. Views to have a look at them and I'll Verdi is not there is injured at the moment of luck Onya Betancourt of Ventas just don't mean ites the time no knows when to do what's really really well Lucas tornado just coming off of that some Doria little midfielder with huge years but what a dynamo he is you know those ears he just flies around the field I think is one unfair advantage with those ears and you know that you've got a fairly solid defense and you've got SWAT is in cover up front you can produce you can just produce magic you go relatively easy draw 444 you're quite so I'm pretty optimistic about what you're going to can do in this World Cup and a few months ago I doubted if I even get there so this revamping of their side I think has been very very important to the process and blue stars does know that it is football this amble in a way live that's one side it was it was 8 years ago would you ask that question about Jack Chan in 1966 No but it was not the English press never they never do that they never do it they yell cheat who is why it isn't here you know remember I didn't show and do the same thing that's what I said it was just if you remember and I were in Gardiner of the time watching that match the good name fans they were very happy they were that a great time to be fair they brought the drums in towards the match from Garcelle and to go about better penalty. Right noises other blaming other people for their own work Colombia with the World Cup. I don't think they're quite there. Quite day yet. I think I would remember the 1st quarter finals was only 4 years ago and I look at that scene now and see I still see potential owing to they were they were very good in qualification I'm not even sure that. Is the best I can do up front is link twice so poor is an excellent front to goal finish but he's link play can be poor and that can maybe on balance that same they're not quite there and as well the goalkeeper off spinner he just keeps finding new and bizarre ways to throw the ball into his own net and he's their only real top class keeper so those Awara useful Colombia perhaps has more potential than reality in this World Cup given a fair wind quarter finals every move they have for him poor as to why Belgian won't win the World Cup for the 1st time in a moment or 2 or maybe he'll say they will win it sort of the moment is deadly I read an amazing article you no doubt say more about the moment really recommended their merits is.
