But the big one tonight uh comes to you from the Alliance at 8:00 p.m. It's the German champions Bayern against the English champions Arsenal. It's live on talk sport. The days following the gunners win at Forest have been dominated by accus accusations of boring football by the likes of Gabby. Something that keeper David Reya hit back at yesterday. >> People has their own opinions and we have our own opinion. At the end of the day, uh, we are we have lost one game in 11 games this season. And if you call it that boring or irritation, um, I don't know what to say, but we we enjoy playing football. We enjoy going out there every single day um to win football matches and that's the most important thing. >> David Dreer there basically saying, Gabby, you're a That's a >> God's sake. For more on this, we can bring in the presenter, content creator and quitter, traffic quitter Joe Bayer, who ditched his plans earlier this morning to join us in the studio due to London traffic apparently. >> Or is he just scared of Oh, Gabby. >> Morning, Joe. Sorry for that. Sorry for that stress this morning, Joel. >> Listen. Listen. Honestly, I wanted to come in and look Gabby right in his eyes because I heard what he said about Arsel being boring. How can you say we're boring when Villa, right, they've only scored seven goals this season and you're 12th? That's boring. >> We don't spend what you lose every week. >> We don't spend what you spend. >> What Arsenal are allowed to spend your your net spend as well. >> The options you've got from the bench. You know, you need a goal. You bring Bruno Garz on. Bring Madi on. You know, you got so many top players. I want to see a bit more, Joel. 11 goals from seven games. It's not enough. >> Boohoo. Mate, don't get on to Arsenal, mate. We've done really well. Um, as of yet, we've won eight out of eight out of our nine in all our competitions, mate. The only defeat was against Brighton. And you got so excited about that going, "Ah, besides that, we've done really well, man." >> Was you entertained on on the weekend on Sunday? Super super Sunday 4:00. You was entertained, >> man. 100%. Who doesn't like a game where it's a little bit ky, but you do well, you score late on, and you scrape through and everybody's happy. Makes you go home giddy, right? Really? >> Yeah. >> You don't want to see your team play like Man City, you know, entertaining, sexy football. >> Listen, I wouldn't worry about them, mate. They're about to get Dr. 100 points. They're about to get docked 100 points. I'd rather be where Arsenal is. Thank you very much. >> Sure. Do I take it? You You won't be in Munich tonight or are you flying out later? >> No, the traffic to get to Munich would have been too difficult, mate. So, >> the traffic control was a problem, isn't it? >> Traffic control, mate. First time in two years, by the way. Just putting it out there. What a game. What a game to miss, mate. That's a cracker. That is >> a shame. Is it too hard to get to He ord? >> No. >> Oh, no. No, no, no, no. >> Why? >> Not Joel. No, no, no, no. >> What tube? I don't live near the tube. >> Anyway, we talking about tonight's game or not? >> Where where do you live, Joe? Where do you live? Come on. Where? What part of London? >> Oh, I'm not I'm not telling everyone around, mate. That means that means clap him or something like that, doesn't it? >> Telling everyone online, mate. >> Oh, you're funny, mate. What do you expect tonight then, Joel? What are you looking for from the game? No. Elise say for Bayern Munich. That's a big loss for Bay, isn't it? >> I do expect us to um to win. I mean, I mean, our last performance against Bayern Munich, we won 3-1 uh back in 2025. I mean, yes, they're always going to be a threat, but they don't have Elise. Elise is the highest creating player in the Champions League. He created 44 chances. The majority of those Harry Kane goals are coming from him, mate. And with him not being there, some might argue he should be in contention with Balandor, but he's not there. That means we got a free run. You know, Arsenal looking strong. I don't see them being a threat at all. >> Don't see them being a threat with Gabri, Diaz, Kane. >> Definitely. >> What year is this? 2023. Come on, guys. >> Lennard Cole, you're not a fan. >> Sorry, Carl. Yeah. fantastic player. But I look at it this way. You're you're talking to Champions League finalists and Champions League semi-finalists. We're going to go >> I don't have to serious note. I think you're underplaying this game tonight. >> I think I make you second favorite. >> Yeah, we've lobbed on buying to win. >> I do. >> Gabby, wasn't you the one Gabby that said that Arsenal are not a threat? They're only a threat when it comes to the group stage game, but when it comes to the knockout stages, there's now all of a sudden we're in a group stage game and you want to act as if it's it's big trouble. >> No, but it's the way you say Arsenal Champions League finalist like that's like a pat on the back. >> Is that a lie? >> You had an easy run to the final and you got to the final and you parked the bus and lost. >> No, no, no, no, Gabby. We got to the final because we beat all the teams that were beat. It's not our fault. Who did you beat? It's not Did we not beat a tough Athletico Madrid? Did we not? >> Cough. >> Okay, next. >> Well, we lost. We barely lost to PSG, by the way, on pens. >> How can that be an issue? >> Cuz you parked the bus. >> No, we didn't park the bus, mate. They've got better players than us, but we still went out there and scored the first goal. What are you talking about? >> Yeah, I just think I do think Arsenal need to get that Champions League win though, Al because, you know, like I said before, our big clubs, Celtic, not even Forest, Villa, you know, all won the Champions League and Arsenal not. Joel, do you think Saka will start tonight for sure? Graeme Sunnis has called him. They call him a cheat. >> Cheating diver. >> What about that one? >> Yeah, you know, I don't think that's fair. You know, everybody who watches Sacka knows that he's an honest player. I mean, if you look at him in a Champions League, he's got 14 Champions League goals. >> He's not He does dive though, Joel. I like him as a player, man. >> No, let's focus on the positives. Let's focus on the positives. He scored and he assisted against LIIL off the bench. I think the boys had a decent season. you saw what he did for England as well. I do think he gets uh criticism. It's a little bit harsh, but that's what happens when you're a champion and um you know you you do well, people start to target you, right? So, it is what it is. >> I just my ear out >> Kensington Clap him clap him to London Bridge is 12 minutes. >> I don't >> What about what we going to what Joe? what we're going to do with EZ cuz he's a top top player but he's just not he's not sparkling at the moment with Arsenal is he >> well to be fair with EZ I think it definitely has been a little bit of a slow start but what EZ gives you that other players don't is he's got that moment of magic I mean we saw against Spurs last season a couple times you know like when you need those goals he comes through how many times have you seen an EZ volley or scissor kick or whatever that may be when you need it um and also he scored in the last game as well So for me, we've got a big enough squad where if he's not cutting it, we can switch things around, mate. You can put Naimo there on the left hand side who he was getting criticized. You saw what he did on the weekend. So I'm not worried about our squad whatsoever. Like you said, Gabby, we got a big squad compared to Villa, mate. We can do what we want. So I wouldn't sit there and worry. >> Yeah. Okay, Joel. We'll see you tomorrow tonight. I'm >> see. Yeah. Make sure you get me on when we beat Bayern Munich, by the way. >> Well, well, if you don't, you're still coming on, right? Yeah. No, he doesn't have to commit. >> He can't get in because he doesn't use public trans. >> We'll talk to Joe live from Clappam. >> Joe, >> enjoy tonight, Joe. >> Not bad. Joel, >> I will do. >> Far side supporter. Thank you. >> Uh, what was I going to say? >> Nothing wrong with Clapper, man. >> No, Clapp's a nice place, but it's 12 minutes in the train. We're at London Bridge. >> London's everywhere you can get public transport clients getting to London. Why is he getting in a car? >> Big time. Big time. Charlie. >> Uh, right. One of the things I did read in the paper says an absolute disgrace. We're going to talk about that in a moment, Gab. And it's a disgrace. Coming up, we turn our attention to the front pages as Bear Grills has come out and said he'd eat his dog if he had to. >> Oh, >> I find that absolute scandalous. >> I don't like that. >> Scandalous. Would I eat Hugo? That's coming next.
