| 0:00.0 | My name's Sharzad Kiade. I'm a Gemini Pescatarian, a mom of two wild little boys. I'm Susan Yara. I'm a mom of two also. This morning, I went to the bathroom alone. I woke up at five, put my boob in her mouth, and then she took a dump because that's what she uses me for. That's what you're going to hear a lot of our stories and experiences and our crazy journeys to motherhood. It's for all moms, |
| 0:22.9 | not for all dads, not fathers and moms, for all moms. It's going to be good all time. You guys are |
| 0:27.6 | going to want to stick around, promise. So subscribe. Hello, and welcome to the TIFO football |
| 0:35.0 | podcast. I am Joe Devine. And today I am joined by Alex Stewart. |
| 0:39.2 | Hello. |
| 0:39.7 | Hello. |
| 0:56.0 | And Simon Harrison, my friend and yours. Hello. How's it going? Good, thanks. How are you? Yeah, not too bad. A little bit warm. It is hot here today, isn't it? A little bit. It's unpleasant, yeah. But Simon is here because today we are doing a second edition of the sensible transfers podcast. I don't know if you know, but we've been making videos about this |
| 1:01.5 | as well where we pick a football club and we identify problem areas and then suggest solutions |
| 1:07.1 | in the form of incoming players, i.e. sensible transfers. And we've been having a bit of fun |
| 1:11.5 | with this on the podcast as well. A couple of weeks ago, we asked for listeners to suggest team names |
| 1:17.1 | and roles on the pitch. And then Alex went through all of his big databases that he's |
| 1:22.1 | drawn on the wall in blood in his bedroom at home, in his parents' house, and picked out the best footballers |
| 1:28.3 | that might fill those roles from an analytical point of view as well as from a statistical |
| 1:33.3 | point of view. |
| 1:33.9 | So the idea is that we are looking for players who are not only good players as individuals, |
| 1:37.9 | but will fit the systems that we, the teams that we're suggesting are playing. |
| 1:43.2 | And today we're doing a La Liga version, |
| 1:44.8 | which is why we've invited our friend Simon here, because he is our La Liga expert friend, |
| 1:49.6 | aren't you? Yeah, no pressure. Yeah, not all. I mean, I suppose given the fact that |
| 1:53.6 | Realm Madrid have already spent over 300 million, the sensible transfers, he's already been |
| 1:58.1 | put to the test. But yeah, definitely. There's a lot to talk about |
| 2:01.6 | from the top three especially. |
