Genuinely might be the best football conversation I have heard
i agree, im amazed and only 25 mins in
It was very refreshing especially after being inundated with fan football banter after every match instead of them talking about the actual game
Not better than the one with my barber this morning, he said rangers and celtic should join the Dutch league
@@Do27gg nah, it didn't land
@@AyaGumede only thing that should land is you in turkey to sort that hairline out
Nedum is such a phenomenal orator and to be fair James, you get the absolute best out of him. Superb content!
He really should be used by one of the TV channels
Nedum is an amazing person
@@Denchanter He is on ESPN regularly !
Great video, just need to find a way to get it to that woman at lotus road! 😆
This is such a welcome departure from the pop culture punditry I can't seem to find refuge from without avoiding football at all.
But Micah Richards is so funny, Right?! I'm sure he is - he laughs a lot. He must be. Can't think of anything funny he's said though. Or anything he's said about football that means anything. Guess you are right!
@@joso7228 German punditry is even worse. There's only sociopaths who regurgitate and ruminate idioms from the 90s. British football punditry is bad, but German... holy hell.
Great golfer too.
@@needfoolthings German football is living of an aura of intelligence that was earned by those decades ago. It pays to pander to that ethic than admit that your football is in decline.
@@needfoolthings Mate that's the entirety of British football discourse below James or Tifo. A team could score 100 goals a season, not win the league and the modal advice would be "get a tall tap in striker even if you score less, generic platitudes about passion and don't bottle"
"It's a bigger risk to not take a risk" what a quote that is, not even just for football but for life in general, don't live your life with regrets because you were too afraid to take a chance even if it doesn't always work out.
Bro, that's very bad advice. If I had followed that advice, I'd be homeless right now. 😆 Calculate the risk and ask yourself if it's worth it.
For example, if you want to sleep with a really beautiful woman, you should ask yourself whether sleeping with a really beautiful woman is worth ruining your marriage .
@benedictjajo that’s a subjective question answered with personal perspective. Me, as a single man, would be delighted to sleep with a beautiful woman. But indeed, not all men are single, and not all men are interested in women. Subjectivity!
@@benedictjajono, this is just bad understanding of good advice lmao. Obviously you don't take EVERY risk that comes into your life. Not sure how you read that and don't infer that.
I remember my coach saying: "Everyone can be Messi for one day, its all the other days that count"
24:50 what Nedum said here regarding Villa and Arsenal is very true and Mikel knew that and stood off Spurs for this reason because he knew they would kill them if they did this all game. Damn what a conversation
Just come back to football after losing interest in the early 00's. This is what I'm after, thoughtful and insightful conversations with some depth. Makes mainstream punditry look like a joke. Keep it up chaps.
Certainly one of the few unbiased, insightful football content creators in the scene. Keep it up.
i can feel my brain getting more folds listening to this, such wonderful insight as always Jimbo!
I was randomly recommended another episode of this the other day. Such an insightful podcast. I could listen to Nedum Onoaha talk about football all day.
Nedum is one of the best pundits out there. He actually tried analysis instead of wishful thinking and tribalism.
Absolutely, Actually articulate and intelligent. The rarest attributes in football pundits.
Man, I could listen to Nedum read the shipping forecast.
One of the players who really thinks for themselves and it's clear as day is Cole Palmer grew up in the Man City academy for sure. Had the best coaching could have easily turned into a player who just listened to what the coaches say, but instead when you see him at Chelsea's all over the pitch look at his heat map. He's wherever the ball is is where he is cuz he knows if he has the ball he can create for this team. And I think that's exactly what we're talking about here. He's the perfect example
Really like this guys, a lot of valid points. Feel like pundits get drawn into just saying things and scapegoating players rather than proper analysis.
Very refreshing to hear. Love it🫡
This is one of my favourite panels for a football podcast I’ve ever watched, please make this regular Jim👍🏻
I think what a lot of Footballers and Pundits, don't see, or understand. Is that the vast majority of Football "Fans" don't go to watch football. They go to experience it. They go to scream, to chant and to shout. They go to have societal and communal interaction. To be part of a Tribe. To feel a part of something. They go to escape the economic system they are trapped in. They go to vent anger, and frustration. To give manifest to anxiety in their lives. The most visceral reactions are for goals (scoring, we are better than you), hurling abuse and (less and less these days) acts of violence, of physical dominance over your opponents over the other Tribe, i.e. the crunching tackle. We all know this deep down. It's the adrenaline rush, the dopamine dump that we go for, we go for the drug, not the football.
That being said, this is a brilliant podcast for the aficionado, the connoisseurs of football 👍
Erm no I go to watch football and support my team. I love tactical analysis. I don’t go for any of those reasons.
@@SW-kr9fl OMG then you must be erm...in the minority. But thanks for reading and understanding the written word, SW-kr9fkgvht12routerpasswordkey865 good luck in life.

I loved listening to this! I think Hazard is a good example but another example where that tactics has happened is Jack Grealish. There are interviews of him talking about the system he must follow under Pep compared to the free role he took under Dean Smith at Villa, especially in the Championship. Grealish is still a great player but his game has completely changed.
15:54 the pent up frustration is real
Being aware of surroundings and knowing what your strengths and weaknesses are and knowing what they are of your teammates or opponents
One of the best, most interesting and illuminating podcasts about football i ever heard.Thank you James, Nedum, Harry and Dan ❤
1 hour 21 minutes and 48 seconds felt like a breeze listening to this. Captivating stuff.
I'm a boro fan so I have no connection to Qpr/Onuoha; and I'm not sure I have ever heard him speak before. I shouldn't be surprised because its a lazy stereotype that all footballers are thick but he is clearly at the very top end of the inelligent footballers. Excellent content, he should be on national radio.
He works for ESPN fc for the U.S. market but I agree, he should be on tv/radio in England, miles beyond so many useless pundits.
Incredible conversation!! You know a pod is good when you’ve gotta pause to take some notes 🔥
This is a lovely watch
I like Nedum as he´s honest and not just self-important hot air
I like the spanish commentator for La Liga matches, he’s very good
This is such an amazing chat. I'd love to see a follow-up on this along the lines of individualism vs collectivism in athletics & sport. I think a lot of the interesting points Harry made fall along the lines of prioritising individualism, but I align more with Nedum's way of explaining how teaching people how to be part of a collective in a professional team being a key factor to excelling as a footballer.
Wow what a episode. I can listen to nedum all day
Imagine how much better the coverage would be if Nedum replaced Micah
but alas its all about entertainment, clicks, engagement, and reaching new (aka younger uneducated) audiences
if you're talking about cbs, keep micah, replace carra instead. that would be a real upgrade to the show.
apples and oranges i think, micah isn’t bad either he’s just less formal but he’s very entertaining and i think good overall
That would be a miniscule change because TV doesn't understand their pundits' job to be within the confines of the entertainment which is the match. Their intent, and yes, I use the term deliberately, is to ADD to the entertainment because they think they add to their audience that way. That's what makes all pundits EXECUTE their bosses' INTENT the way they can, changing their nature in places. Fancy dresses and hair for the gurls, childish behavior for the token king's fool, and all that.
Do you still think you would want to watch Nedum in that environment, changing what he does best according to the yaysayers around him?
Micah was a footballer and his style is different, maybe a bit casual but he is one of the best out there and doesn't speak too much like other player pundits
This is my new standard of tactical football discourse. I never want to hear Robbie Savage or Jamie Redknapp or Efan Ekoku talking about "who wants it more" ever again.
Deserves more flowers. One of FEW who actually can understand what they want to explain and how to articulate a view or point.
Great episode, so many aha moments. Nedum is a class guest
Nedum is the best football commentator (in my opinion).
Such a great convo man I love nedum so much
This was one of the best pure football conversations I ever heard…I actually learned a lot about the ins and outs of what goes on in the game
Incredible group, incredible conversations. Love this!
So true, i grew up watching italian football in the 90's. So many mavericks, passing with the outside of the foot or flick. Player's now are trained all the same. Flair is rare these days.The time for defenders.
Been looking for this quality of insight from an experienced panel. Thank you for making this content.
This guy is genuinely excellent. He should have a greater punditry profile than he has.
This was a very phenomenal conversation about modern football. Honestly one of the best I’ve ever heard. Not just criticisms and critiques but solutions - and lots of them 👏🏾
Flashed this on and couldn’t stop watching. Brilliant. Learned a ton. More of this please.
What a brilliant, insightful conversation.
Kudos to you James for getting Nedum on here. He's by far the most insightful eloquent and knowledgeable panelist across all formats! His insight and tactical breakdown is phenomenal. Love this. Keep up amazing work fella
I work in IT and some of the stuff you were talking to applies to us as well. It’s deep knowledge of the subject vs associative knowledge. Some people just learn doing X fixes Y and when faced with an unfamiliar problem they just start spamming all the Xs they’ve picked up haha. If you actually understand the subject and WHY X fixes Y you can use that knowledge to come up with Z, which might fix a new problem.
This content is truly mind blowing, cannot find anything like this anywhere.
Such a breath of fresh air. I think the Overlap does this well, too (at times).
Ironically, people like Simon Jordan, who will spend time telling you they tell it like it is or offer a unique perspective, often end up straying into platitudes ("they wanted it more", etc).
Agreed
The Overlap is well produced
Simon is the Brian Cowell of the lot.
It's almost like someone has been listening to AND actually understanding Ange, best conversation of the year .... 😮
Nedum continues to be the best pundit for non-hype, fact-based insights. Always worth listening to.
This type of conversation is one of the wonders of the internet💥
This is one of the most insightful football conversations I've seen/heard for sure
This was amazing jimbo ❤
The lack of understanding from pundits is why we need match broadcasts with game sounds and no commentators.
It’s great to listen to Nadum. He helps me understand the game a lot more.
I remembered Nedum was one of the few that rubbishes the notion that Ole was a mediocre coach and he stuck to his guns that the real problem lies with the club and transfers, not the manager.
I still maintain that to this day.
I don’t ever comment but I’ve honestly been waiting for this podcast for years. As result of the standard discourse in punditry I don’t watch any mainstream commentary, build up shows and even interviews. In American sports, though they aren’t perfect, there seems to be a more elevated understanding of each sport by those commentating and this is the closest thing I’ve experienced to that. Brilliant! Please keep it up!!!
Thank you triple-fold for this. Pundits, media and fans are constantly making observations from bygone 442 eras. Football has changed so much. One of the clearest which still hasn’t been understood is the “9” is no longer the 9 from 90’s and 00’s. No matter how much people are watching the game it seems their beliefs and understanding aren’t evolving.
The game hasn't changed that drastically though. Of course there's a wider adoption of systems and I'd say teams have become more compact. But overall, the principles will never change
@@arsenalogist4285 it has though. The principles always will be the same obviously but if you are going to provide an in depth analysis then you need to understand the intricacies and the evolution that happens to the game overtime which none of the pundits or the media are in touch with. Their comments consistently prove just how out of touch they are..
@monarkjain613 I hear you, and certainly, compared to pundits abroad, we're a bit vague on detail in this country. However, that doesn't prove the games drastically changed.
Unbelievable work how far this channel has come is brilliant to see. Was great to hear a great positive insight from professionals rather than the constant complaining that we regularly hear on mainstream media/youtubers.
What an absolutely first-rate show! Loads of content and reflection on that content.
Can you please start a podcast with Nedum Onuoha. His insights are facinating. It's rare to hear an athlete this articulate and introspective
Great conversation. Makes me want to get on the pitch asap. Football.. What an incredible and beautiful sport. Great chat lads.
Sack the entire crew of current pundits and get these gentlemen and others who actually understand modern football.
For me this is your best video. Bring these boys back for another
This is the most informative conversation about football I’ve heard in a long time! Where is this stuff on the tv ffs!
Nedum is quickly becoming the best football speaker/pundit in the business.
Best football conversation on a podcast og tv show ever. I have been screaming this at the tv for 15 years. I feel seen today. Nedum should say some of this stuff when he is on. The football narrative is designed not for understanding. It’s for feeling and reacting. It’s for money. It doesn’t have to be like that.
Thank you
We can be given all the statistics and tactical mumbo jumbo in the world but it’s rare such insight ever shines through in football-related media. Grateful for this one
The best football conversation I think I’ve ever heard
This was absolutely brilliant, fascinating. I could have watched this conversation go on for much longer.
this was an eye opening podcast for me. I never played football, but I am growing to love it as a spectator. The mentality for pundits that you put forward would be absolutely refreshing and I think bring us Americans into the fold.
Excellent analysis and insights shared!
Algo for the win, I need to watch the rest of this later, easily best football convo I’ve heard… clearly I’ve been missing out!
This was an amazing watch
Nedum is one of the smartest footballers, genuinely very intelligent
Absolutely fantastic discussion, aside from the part perpetuating the Ben White misunderstanding. He never said he doesn't like football. He said he doesn't watch football in his time off but loves playing it
The best ever
Please we need the whole game analysed for us viewers to understand
Brilliant show that. First I've seen on the channel. Well worth the time.
very interesting coverage of the modern football dynamics between structure and individual freedom - top quality
While I understand fast and slowing down the pace, it virtually comes down to one or two touches and not holding the ball too long.
Otherwise at the highest level, those little channels close to fast.
Informative discussion, really enjoyed this one.
felt the same way for a long time. it’s become particularly glaring under klopp. we’ve never had a plan b. we stick to the same system and patterns and squander so many chances and drop so many points as a result!
What a video, wow. I don't normally watch the ripple effect, but this video fully captured me
Extremely insightful discussion! Just wanted to make two requests. It would be amazing to have a more philosophical discussion on how specifically positional play has, in my opinion, killed off the old school no.10s and dribblers and how that is detrimental to the game (viewers and players). This relates to developing players like Taraabt who don't really fit into the positional play paradigm we see everywhere now. This is in the context of the current debate between two paradigms of positionism and relationism which has sprung up recently. Additionally, it would be absolutely brilliant to have David Brooks elaborate on his experiences in working with the kids in Palmeiras academy.
amazing episode, learned a lot
This is one of the best talks I have ever heard on football . So many times stuff CLICKED that have never clicked before .
More football discussions like this please!
I genuinely think Martin Odegaard Is one of the best players in the world at the moment, top 10 maybe 15. When he's freed up by Rice, Partey or Jorgi on a good day....its incredible. His intelligence, vision and creativity is amazing.
Yes, players like Rodri, Odegaard, Jorginho, Silva, are so aware of the game state they can even help making sure players on the team are in the right place at the right time.
Lovely content just subscribed🎉😊
Love Nedum, I think he’s brilliant
Absolutely fantastic, James.
brilliant video
So pleased I've found this channel. Unbelievable content.
i came across this totally by accident and it was great , thanks :)
Really great content, an intelligent football conversation, it’s rarer than I want but some great insight here
I love ur vids bro
This is a great use of your time James. Brilliant insight! 🎉
I think when players take less risks, their opponents do not develop ways to overcome technical players...and a vicious cycle ensues hence the boring lack of "ballers" we saw 15, 20 years ago and before. As much as the tikka takka style of play is successful it's monotonous with ultra control type of management of games.
Excellent group of guys who know there stuff.
You lucky fellow James. Talking to the gorgeous Nedum.
Do you think this applies to Sunday league level? Like because most amateurs don’t have real tactics are games harder to read?
Absolutely fascinating discussion
