London Is Blue Podcast ⭐️⭐️

⚡️ @Matt_Law_DT: Maybe Gittens has got a bit of a chance [under Alonso] because he's been injured & he's a bit younger. Garnacho just looks lost at Chelsea. So the future currently looks a bit bleak for Garnacho and Gittens. 🎧👉 open.spotify.com/episode/1QC1eO…

👀 @Matt_Law_DT on Alonso's 'manager' title: He won't be below the sporting directors. He will be on par with them, he would be able to go in there and say, this just isn't working. whether it has to be someone who goes or we have to scrap this. 🎧👉 open.spotify.com/episode/1QC1eO…

🧐 @Matt_Law_DT: If I'm Enzo Fernandez, who's won the World Cup with Argentina, if someone like Rosenior or his coaching staff is telling me where to run to, where to stand, where to pass, I am thinking... I'm sorry, you played for Hull City, your staff's played for Scunthorpe. Like, who are you guys? If Xabi Alonso is telling you actually should be 5 yards this way, or don't make that run, you're listening. This is a guy who's won the World Cup. He's won the European Championships. He was one of the best midfielders of his generation. He's played with all the top players, Liverpool, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich. You're listening. Believe me, you're listening.

🧐 @nickverlaney: Palmer, he just doesn't scare anybody right now. He just isn't moving the ball quick enough in transition. I don't see the intensity from him to take on players right now. I think he's conserving energy in hopes that he's gonna make the World Cup squad. That's my read of the situation that might be totally unfair.
