As part of OneFootball’s collaboration series with Shoot Music we’re interviewing an artist every week about their love of football.<\/p>\n
This week it’s Tottenham fan Kidwild and Manchester City supporter Blanco.<\/p>\n
When did you start supporting your respective teams and why?<\/strong><\/p>\n Kidwild: I began supporting Tottenham in 2015. I was inspired by a friend’s dad who had a season ticket and took me them to a first game.<\/p>\n Blanco: I’ve always watched football. I was a MOTD magazine (& others) kid cutting out footballer portraits and sticking them on my wall but didn\u2019t have a strong admiration for a particular team. I had a lot of Robinho posters so when he came to Man City I watched and supported them to be different. I didn\u2019t know where we would end up.<\/p>\n Do you think your teams have what it takes to topple Liverpool this season and win the Premier League title?<\/strong><\/p>\n Kidwild: I think Tottenham can win the Premier League title. I\u2019m unsure if they will do it this season but I’m biased so I’ll say, yeah they can do it.<\/p>\n Blanco: I mean it\u2019s not Liverpool we have to topple it\u2019s Arsenal they\u2019ve been the best team for three seasons and have gotten stronger while we\u2019ve regressed. They have the best 25-man squad however if we get a RB & RW in the January transfer window we could be in the conversation. Since Donnarumma\u2019s arrival we\u2019ve kept clean five clean sheets in seven games so our defence is one of the best in Europe. If Haaland keeps scoring then we could win silverware<\/p>\n Talk to us about that Europa League win last season. What were your emotions at full time?<\/strong><\/p>\n Kidwild: At full-time it\u2019s the best I\u2019ve ever felt. I have never seen the team lift a trophy before, so it felt so good after that win.<\/p>\n Do you think this is likely to be Pep Guardiola’s last season in charge? And if so, who could replace him?<\/strong><\/p>\n Blanco: I can\u2019t predict Pep\u2019s state of mind he\u2019s all over the place so I don\u2019t know. But the best appointment I believe is Kompany or Fabregas. Kompany makes sense as he has a playing style similar to Pep\u2019s but he\u2019s just signed an extension (at Bayern). I do personally prefer Fabregas\u2019 philosophy.<\/p>\n Why do you think Tottenham have had Man City’s number in recent seasons?<\/strong><\/p>\n Kidwild: Tottenham has just been the better side when paired with Man City in the Premier League in recent seasons. I reckon it’s that simple.<\/p>\n Blanco: I think Tottenham are the best at playing on the counter against us because their players are very athletic and quick. We play a high line and have slower players so it\u2019s been a recipe for disaster. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s going\u00a0happen again with Khusanov, O\u2019Reilly, Gvardiol\u00a0& Dias with Nico Gonzalez in the midfield.<\/p>\n Tell us about your new song ‘Remontada’ ….\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Kidwild: The new song is named ‘Remontada’ which means comeback in football competitions. It\u2019s inspired by Jude Bellingham’s use of the term while at Real Madrid. I felt the song had the same feeling so felt it was right to name the song that.<\/p>\n Kidwild and Blanco’s latest single ‘Remontada’ is out now.<\/em><\/p>\n You can follow them both on Instagram here: @Kidwild<\/a>\u00a0\/\/ @Blanco<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
