Hello there, welcome to a brand new R-Splugged R-Scast right here on R-Splug.com.

Hope you're well. It's cold here tonight in Dublin. It's really fucking freezing actually.

We've had good weather. It's saying it's too, but it's like real feel of minus six.

And the fire is downstairs and I'm upstairs and that's fine.

But I might just for this particular episode, issue my usual high standards of ensuring that everything is absolutely tip-top professional as good as it can be,

doing retake after retake after retake to make sure that it's perfect for you because I'm fucking cold.

And the sooner I can get downstairs, the better. Anyway, we're going to talk about stuff on this podcast today.

We're going to talk about stuff and we're going to talk about things. So it's all in the mix.

Obviously, the Liverpool game that took place on Wednesday night will have to go over that to some degree or another.

I took quite a big degree. Who knows? I'm going to chat to Amy Lawrence about that and other things that's coming up as well.

What else will look ahead to a game against Stoke? Wow. Isn't that something? A brand new signing? Muhammad El Neni.

Yes. He is signed. He is ours. We have bought another human being for cash. We went to FC Basil and we said, hey, you own that man.

But we would like to own him instead. How much money would it cost for us to buy him from you?

And they said it would cost about 7.4 million pounds with add-ons and you may own this human being.

And we said, okay, that seems a reasonable deal. So we paid them that money and we now own a person that we didn't own before.

And that person is ours for as long as we want to own him. Or until such time as we deem him replaceable by another human that we own.

And we will sell him to another institution. I mean, is there anything? Anything in this world as pure and beyond reproach as football's ability to buy and sell and trade human beings in order to win trophies.

I mean, you know, I don't think there is. Mankind has evolved over millions of years to reach the point where it's deemed acceptable to trade the life of another person in order to help you win a trophy that lots of people on the internet want you to win.

Sport. Gosh, it's so great. It really is.

So look, stuff and things I said we'd be talking about. That was a stuff. And maybe we should talk about a thing, right?

Aaron Ramsey scored against Liverpool. Good goal it was to.

Can ask some questions about the rest of his performance, but a good goal.
