0:35I hope you're doing well this morning. We're so close we can almost touch the return of Premier League football. And it's a Manchester derby, of course. We'll be building up towards that over the next couple of days. But this morning we've got the latest Manchester United news for you. Could there be a return to Manchester United for Marcus Rashford and Andre Anana? We'll give you the detail on that. Kobi Maynou still looking at a January exit, according to reports this morning. We've also got something coming out from The Athletic around the goalkeeper situation and who could be in goal at the weekend.
1:07Malasia is on the move to Turkey too. And I've been sent an incredible, what do you call it? Winner stays on. Winner stays on, basically. It's probably one of the best ones I've seen and I haven't really thought it through. So I'll do it live on here. Basically, it starts off with Kunyurur Mbumo and then you go which one you want and then it goes to Maynou and then it goes to... I'll go through it with you in a bit anyway. Anyway, good morning. Hope you're all doing very well. The sun is shining for now and hopefully it's shining on a more positive period for Manchester United. It's certainly about to get very interesting, isn't it?
1:41Next two games, Man City against Chelsea. And they're only playing one game a week, Sunday Man City, Saturday Chelsea. So they'll feel very compact those two games when they come along. Also, the return of the chart show tonight. Get ready for that. I'll give you the detail on the eight o 'clock show. But let's fly into some of the news. I will talk about Rashford. There was a lot of noise last night about Rashford coming back to Man United next summer. How he looks so built now, scored a penalty for England. It's not beyond the realms of possibility. I will delve into the detail of that. Also, we've got this main news story for you as well.
2:11But let's just start off with a little bit that's come out this morning, actually from the Athletic and from Laurie Whitwell around the Inanna story. So effectively, Inanna is somewhat in shock about Manchester United moving him on. And we've got a little bit more detail here around the goalkeeper situation, around who might be in goal at the weekend as well. There's some on Le Mans who's been in training since Monday. But look, this is what Laurie Whitwell is saying. And it's a little bit more meat on the bones, really, because some of it's not groundbreaking, but it does add clarity and verification on stuff.
2:44So Inanna is going to fly out to Trabzon via Paris after Cameroon's costly World Cup defeat to Cape Verde. He's set to face Edison in Istanbul on Sunday, a rematch of last season's Etihad clash. Anana wished to discuss his salary with Manchester United since it was cut from£170k to£120k due to no Champions League football. He has people who depend on him in Cameroon where he has opened up the Andre Anana Foundation. And although it is a straight loan, Anana is effectively ending his United career with this switch. An Old Trafford return after a season of Super League football is highly unlikely.
3:22Now, there are a few quotes flying around about Ananda that aren't true. Something about, it's not, it's a fake quote. So if you've seen it, just beware. I think we have responsibility to do responsible reporting and not cause pylons unfairly. I mean, I think there's a reason to pile on to Ananda. He's not been a very good goalkeeper for us, but fake quotes aren't great. It's something about, you know, people blame what's going on between the sticks, but there's a bigger picture going on. But it's a fake quote anyway. What's not fake is that Anana clearly came back wanting a pay rise. Look, I mean, we're allowed to pass judgment on this.
4:01Like, Anana gets all the best from most people, including me, on his future projects. And apparently he's going to earn big money in Turkey. so the people that are dependent on him in the Andre Inanna Foundation will have money going in and that's great. But Man United's not a charity. It isn't. And Inanna wanting a pay rise is one of the biggest laughs we've all had in years and we've had plenty of laughs at Manchester United. I mean, it's comedy. If he walked in to Omar Barada's office asking for a pay rise, I hope he walked in in clown boots with makeup on and a flower that squirts water because that's a clown move.
4:40In fact, he may as well come in with a big pee on and a cape saying Pratt Man because, you know what, I find the reporting is brilliant on it because it gives us the clarity, but the detail is embarrassing. I mean, you know what, I'm sure there was plenty of people who Man United sacked last year whose mortgage was dependent on the wage they were earning out of Man United and whose kids, you know, clothing, food, presents were dependent on that wage. I couldn't give two shits about Inanna needing a pay rise because people are depending on him because we're not a charity. And I think it's great that he's found a move to go elsewhere.
5:20My point is here, obviously I care about any charity that people are doing, but my point is he was asked to leave and didn't leave. He asked for a pay rise and didn't get one. If he'd have been in goal for Manchester United, he'd have earned 120k a week. So I sense a little bit of confusion around this because if he'd started against Arsenal and Fulham and Burnley on 120k a week, he wouldn't have left. So the whole dependent, people are dependent on me and I want more money. Well, you didn't put a transfer request in when we said, no, you stayed. You wanted to be the number one. So I don't get, I don't really get that.
5:57I mean, obviously he did ask for a pay rise and, you know, that's laughable. but the whole, you know, people are depending on me. Well, why didn't you leave then? Why didn't you put a transfer request in if you need to earn more money? You've got that more money now, but you only did that at the end of the window when you realised you lost your place. So, look, I'm not disputing the story. It just seems a little bit strange that, you know, he needed more money because people are depending on him. Absolutely fine. But you were going to stay if you'd been number one. The only reason you're leaving is because you're not.
6:27So, you A little bit of a weird one there, but look, clearly did ask for a pay rise, which is funny in itself. With regards to the wider situation at Manchester United, the essential situation here is that Le Mans did train at Carrington for the first time on Monday. And the big question is whether it's going to be Biinder in goal or Le Mans in goal. And I'm sure we're going to have that conversation a lot over the next few weeks.
7:00and, you know, and it really is important to, you know, that Amrim gets that right. I think Biinder did play, did get called up by Turkey, but didn't play. Le Mans did not get called up for Belgium, which apparently was a surprise. I don't really care. I mean, you know, there's a benefit to that. If he'd have been joined, you know, if he's been training with Man United since Monday, I think there's very much a positive to that because he's at United. But I'm not going to sit here and predict what's going to happen with the goalkeeper on Sunday at the Etihad. I hope it's going to be Le Mans, but part of me thinks it probably will be Behinder.
7:43But then at some point, you've got to make that decision. And I think if you go with Behinder, as I said yesterday, it becomes the Casemiro effect where a player is coming in and taking your spot. And I think that's, you know, very much... I don't know why that wasn't on. I don't know why that's doing that. Here we go again. Shut up. Sorry about that. I normally have it on mute. Bring all your fucking light now. Anyway, so yeah, I think it's... I think it'd be very interesting to see who he goes with. But Le Mans has been there all week. Biinder hasn't. it's a chance for Amrim to take a look at him.
8:20I think everybody's back training today. Well, not everybody. I think you can tell me about what's happening with Agate and Uruguay. But yeah, interesting. Just on Rashford, a few people saying what's going on with Rashford. So basically last night, Rashford scored for England. I was watching the England game on That's Football. When he came on, he looks very different physically. I think the last couple of years with Rashford. He's been quite trim. You know, very trim.
8:49The United Stand Team: He looks bulkier. Now, I don't know whether that's the England kit. Remember the kit that made it, the Man United kit that made everyone look fat? I think it was last year's kit, wasn't it? So maybe it's the England kit. I don't know. But he nearly scored a good goal. Keeper made a good save. Obviously took the penalty well. The normal pile on on social media, bring my star boy back to Man United and all this nonsense that you're always going to get. But, you know, real talk. Is there any realistic conversation about Marcus Rashford coming back to Manchester United? Well, certainly not in the short term.
9:24That story about Barcelona sending him back is a load of crap, and that's
9:27The United Stand Team: the worst thing that could happen for Rashford because there is no relationship with Amrim. So in the short term, no. Next summer, Marcus Rashford will still be a Manchester United player and I believe, I believe he has a contract that runs till 2028. I'll just double check that for you but I believe I am right on that. Here it is. I don't want to look at his stats. I want to look at his contract. Moto Casino is pure American energy.

10:24here we go marcus rashford contract is 20 28 and I don't know whether there's a plus one on that. So next summer he'll still have two years left on his contract and there may be a plus one on that and we know it's a very expensive contract. For Marcus Rashford to come back to Manchester United, just to humour those who want it to happen, I would imagine he'd have to have a bad season at Barcelona, Amrim would have to get sacked, he would have to come back, the new manager would have to be desperate to keep him and Bridges would have to be built with the club because it's not just Amarim and Rashford that have sort of burnt their bridges.
11:03It's the board and Rashford's people as well. So it's not beyond the realms of possibility, but if he has a good season at Barcelona, he won't be coming back. If Amarim stays as manager, he won't be coming back. And if we get a new manager that wants him, there'd still be bridges that need to be built with the club. So look, it's not beyond the realms of possibility, but it is somewhat amateur and childish to be saying bring him back when even the most simple of simpletons knows that nothing can happen until next June anyway, which is virtually a year. So I just think it's a waste. It's like what I was saying on the show last night, what's the biggest barrier to Amrim's success?
11:43Most of you did say the Glazers and Enios. I said fans because I just think we just have this very vocalised cult of negativity around the club that just constantly grows off the media and stuff like that. And I think that bring Rashford back movement is just idiotic because it's September and he can't come back till June anyway. So a lot of things are going to happen between then. But we should get used to it because every goal he scores for Barcelona, every good performance he has for England, people will say bring him back, bring him back. But if you know anything about Amarim. He ain't bringing anybody back.
12:21The United Stand Team: And I don't think there's any desire from Rashford to come back either. So he's got his dream move at Barcelona at the moment. So look, you know, I want him to do well. I do. I've said it loads of times. I want him to do well. He definitely looks different. Like he definitely looks a bit bulkier. Maybe he's done that because La Liga is not as quick as the Premier League. So he doesn't need to be as trim. Maybe he's gone for a little bit of bulk in a league where he can get away with that. I think that's quite a clever thing. But yeah, look, I hope he does well because ultimately it's better for everybody if they move on, I think.
12:58The United Stand Team: Talking about moving on, let's... Monday morning headline, beginning of the end for Pep at City. I would love that to be the case, Nectario, but it's going to be a hell of a result for us to go and win at the Etihad. I know we did it last year and I know we've had some good results that the Etihad, but we should never take it for granted that it's a difficult place to go and win for anybody and they have lost two of their first three. So, I mean, I've not even thought about the preview yet. I've not even started thinking about my line-up yet, but it's a tough game. Meynou, this is a bit of breaking news coming out this morning.
13:33Believe the source or not, I suppose it's logical in a way. Kabi Meynou will seek to resurrect a lone move to Napoli in January if he does not get more game time at Old Trafford. He wants to be in the England squad for the World Cup. The source of this is ESPN. I think the interesting thing about this story this morning is twofold. One, the Napoli thing. Essentially, Napoli was the only real option in the room that was viable to Mainu in the last week of the window. United were never going to entertain anything Premier League based and the belief was that Napoli was the best place because of relationships through McTominay and Ganaccio and obviously Ganaccio there were talks with Ganaccio and obviously Rasmus so I think Maynus side quite fancied it I think Napoli quite fancied it Man United were always resolute that it wasn't going to happen but it looks like that was the the option that that that was there that the player was open to and Napoli were open to Obviously, United shut it down.
14:41So I suppose there's an element of common sense that if Maynou wasn't playing between now and Christmas, then Napoli would be an option that would maybe be pushed. So, look, I don't dispute the validity of the fact that, you know, maybe Maynou to Napoli in January could happen and he wants to play in the World Cup. but again where I would jump in on this and say well whoa whoa whoa let's not let's not it's like talking about signing a player in January isn't it like it's a long way off there's a lot of football to be played there's a lot of results there and as Robert McCormack would say Amram needs to start winning if he doesn't win between now and Christmas I don't think the big story is going to be Maynou to Napoli I think it's going to be about the manager so these sort of stories sort of like you know I take them with a pinch of salt not because I don't think they're true, but because I think there are other things that are going to happen before that.
15:35And essentially, what we're going to see is a period of time, which is effectively four months before that January transfer window. Now, if Maynou doesn't get picked much and isn't in an England squad, then desperately he's going to be saying, I want to go to Napoli. I want to go to Napoli. I've got one international break to get in in March ahead of the World Cup. I want to go to Napoli. Of course, I understand that. But my theory is we've only got four midfielders. Casemiro is not reliable. Agate is, you know, our fourth best midfielder. I'd say Maynou's third at the moment. You're telling me that our third best midfielder is not going to get opportunities between now and Christmas.
16:15He may even get opportunities to come into the first team and therefore be in the England squad before the January transfer window. The most relaxing thing for me is that Kabi Maynou is a Man United player. The transfer window is closed. It was a bit nervy for the last few days, but the window is closed. He's here. There are two international breaks between now and January. There's only one between January and the World Cup. His time is now. If he wants to go to the World Cup, Napoli ain't going to help him in January. Because all he's got is March and that's it. And that might be too late. Looking at England last night, they're starting to build rhythm.
16:51Look at what Elliot Anderson's done. I mean, that's a player many of you might want at Manchester United. So I don't look at the Maynou exit stories now as anything other than a waste of space to us United fans. Because, as I say, it's a long way till January. We've only got four midfielders. Maynou has to be knocking on the door of starting anyway. And there are so many games to be played before January and there are two international breaks. So if he's working hard in training like he says he is, I'm sure he's going to get the opportunity. opportunity. If we're loaning Meynou to Napoli in January, something's gone very wrong between now and Christmas.
17:30That's all I'm going to say. I just think the opportunities are going to be there. And ultimately, you can say this to the player, you're going to get your opportunities between now and January. I wouldn't be thinking about Napoli. I'd be thinking about Man City. I'd be thinking about Chelsea. I'd be thinking about the next three months and grabbing the opportunity in front of you because if you want to be in the England squad, there's two England squads to get into in the next two months. Get in the Man United side, do well, get in the England squad. Put it like this, if Manu plays against Man City and Chelsea and does well, he'll be in the next England squad.
18:05Guaranteed. Jordan Henderson's in the fucking England squad, in the midfield. I mean, come on, if I was a midfielder playing for bloody Wrexham, I'd fancy my chances getting in ahead of him. So all he's got to do, get in the team, do well, and we're absolutely sorted on that one. As Savage said, Manu needs to believe in himself. He has the talent. He just needs the fitness. He just got to back himself getting that team. Simple as that. Let me have a look at some of your comments.
18:29The United Stand Team: Then I'm going to talk about Malassia. Anyone who does the I want talk should be sold, says Kiel Robinson. I've got to put my hands up and say, I don't know how true it is. We must never take stories in the press as being totally gospel. But I don't actually understand the... If I was Maynou and the people around him, I'd cut back on the World Cup. I don't know what you think, but I'm allowed to have my opinion. I would cut back on the World Cup stuff because Liverpool and Man United fans don't actually give a shit about England. In the main, we don't. We put our club before our country. So look at what Luke Shaw did putting England before Manchester United.
19:12The United Stand Team: Did him irreparable damage and he openly did it. All we seem to be hearing around the Maynou move is he wants to play in the World Cup. Now that could be the press saying Maynou wants to lead because he wants to play in the World Cup. Maybe Maynou wants to play first team football for somebody. But I don't really want to hear about the World Cup because I want to play in the World Cup for England. you're not going to win it. And Man United pay you wages. And Man United's my priority over England. So I'm not really bothered about the World Cup dream, to be honest. I wasn't really bothered about Luke Shaw's Euros obsession.
19:50I'm bothered about Manchester United. So this World Cup thing doesn't really wash. It wouldn't wash with me if, you know, Bruno had an injury and was desperate to get back for the World Cup. I'd be like, well, you should be desperate to get back to Manchester United. So, look, it's the same with everybody. But the World Cup thing, I think, is just a little bit... I couldn't give a shit about the World Cup, you know?
20:13The United Stand Team: Let's play well for Man United, then you get called up for England and you'll get the World Cup anyway. Jacob says, how bad would it look if Glynios sacked Ruben, backslid on the Rashford decision and bring him back, would look very spineless, what she thought. look I don't think that that scenario is impossible I actually said in the summer as a hot take it wouldn't surprise me if Rashford outlasted Amorim and a few people were like well he's for sale that's not going to happen well he didn't get sold did he? he got loaned so he could come back next year and Amorim might not be here it's a hot take I don't want to happen but it could be true so my thoughts on that Jacob are is Man United a football club or is it a business?
21:00If there was a business case to bring Rashford back under a manager that wanted him I'm pretty confident that Sir Jim Radcliffe and Joel Glazer would do it We'll have to just wait and see Babe, did you see that Moto Casino is giving a 1 ,776 ,000 worth of prizes?

21:43The United Stand Team: Patrick Lynch says it's tough for Le Mans. Being goalkeeper for United is already pressurised, but because of the poor performance from Inanna and Bienda, it will be magnified. He's going to have to be very, very strong mentally, Patrick, that's for sure. how is Inanna in shock is he the only one that doesn't see how poor he's been we can't have him back says Martin Taunders look in relation to in relation to Inanna returning I think every player that's on loan you've got to realise that they can come back we've seen it before with Pereira we've seen it with Donny van der Beek these players do come back and can come back Jadon Sancho obviously will be out of contract next summer unless we renew it so he could come back Rasmus Hoyland could come back as well.
22:27The United Stand Team: Very good point. Someone just said in the chat. So these players are on loan.
22:34I think the Inanna return is, I mean, I said it in The Athletic today, but I would say it myself, next to impossible. I think there are certain players that it's next to impossible to come back. I mean, I don't necessarily think there's any chance of Rashford coming back, but you could see a scenario, however unlikely. I think with Inanna and Sancho, It would never happen for different reasons.
22:58The United Stand Team: But with Inanna, it will never happen because how does it happen? You come back next summer, you go in goal, and everyone just thinks you're a prat, even the media. I just don't see a way back for Inanna at Manchester United. I think that ship has well and truly sailed. Eubin has gifted 20 memberships. What a legend this Wednesday morning. Get a W in the chat for Yubin. If you've got one, say thank you. That's great. Thank you, Yubin. Tyrus has just gifted a membership as well. Thank you very much for that. Tony says, hello, Mark from Sarawak. Great to know you are well. Thank you very much, pal.
23:38The United Stand Team: Hope you're all well as well. Let us know where you're watching from this morning. I just need to speak to you about Malasia, don't I, as well? So Malasia has, Sarawak is in Malaysia. I had to Google that myself. It's a Malaysian state. There we go. Big Man United supporting Malaysia. Bit of geography there. I didn't know it myself. Apologies. So, yes, Malasia is heading out on low. I don't know what's wrong with my throat this morning.
24:18The United Stand Team: Look, I've got something in my throat. It's not the fly. If you know, you know. I did say at the end of the stream last night that fly won't survive three minutes.
24:32Let's just say I wasn't wrong.
24:36The United Stand Team: My slipper got a flatmate. We'll leave it there. So, Inanna, we've spoken about. Malassia, let me speak to you about him. So, Ayup Spor. Ayup Spor. Is that a place in Leeds? Ayup Spor have reached an agreement with Manchester United. I've gone all Leeds now. Ayup Spor have reached an agreement with Manchester United for the loan transfer of Terrell Marcia. Decision now up to Malasia. This came in last night. So, another Turkish move. In relation to Malasia, I don't care I've said this before we only paid£15 million for him he's on very very small wages I mean he's been injured for what feels like five years I know he was put in the bomb squad I don't really understand why but I mean look my opinion on Molassia is I would never do I mean look how late we're talking about it in the video We're half an hour in.
25:41The United Stand Team: It's just a meh, you know. And that's not in an offensive way. I just think with Malassia, he ain't very good, is he? And my only hope with him is that he can go and play football elsewhere and do well. As simple as that. I don't even know how long he's got left on his contract. He was good mates with Rashford, apparently. and maybe that's why Amarin put him in the bomb squad but what all I'm saying is I don't really know of anything that Malassi has ever done wrong apart from play shit and be injured so obviously you need to move him on but I think putting him in the bomb squad almost inflates his importance I just think you know find a club, move on and goodbye you know, all the best basically Fish and Chip says It's not the bum squad, mate.
26:36The United Stand Team: It's the bomb squad. I'm not saying bum in a posh way. It's not the bomb squad. It's the bomb squad. Mojo's gifted 20 memberships. Who would have thought you'd get 40 memberships gifted on a 10am show? This is why you need to tune into every show. Get your badge in. Thank you very much to Mojo. Hope you're doing well. Big Z says, have you seen the movie The Fly with Jeff Goldblum? I have. It's a bit weird. A little bit weird. Okay, I've got a few more things I want to talk about, but I'm very excited about this. I got sent this by one of you, actually. Big shout out to Stuart, who sent us this.
27:10The United Stand Team: He's got one for That's Football later on as well. But basically, it was one of these winner takes it all. I thought, you know what, we'll bring this in. It's an international break. We'll bring this in and we'll give it a go. So basically, I get given two players and I have to choose winner stays on. So maybe a bit controversial here. I've got the list. I've not really looked at it and given it any thought. and you're not allowed to give it a lot of thought when you go through it. So we start off, Cunha or Embermo? Cunha. Cunha or Mainu? Cunha. Cunha or Bruno? Bruno. Bruno or Carrick? Carrick.
27:53The United Stand Team: Carrick or Keen? Easy. Keen. Keen or Pogba? Keen. Keen or Scholes? Keen. Keen or Rooney?
28:11Keen.
28:12The United Stand Team: Keane or Giggs? Keane. Keane or Beckham? Beckham. Beckham or Ronaldo? Beckham. I know the chat's going to go mad there. I know it is. But you know what it is? I didn't do it on pure ability. I did it on what they mean to me as Man United greats. That's what I did it on. So on ability, I'd probably do it very differently. but I did it based on Man United greats to me and that's why I went Carrick over Bruno. That's why I went Keane over Scholes gigs. That's why I went Beckham over Keane and Beckham over Ronaldo. So it's not bias. It can't be bias, Rip. It's personal opinion and I've been supporting Man United a lot more than many of you.
29:01The United Stand Team: Like a lot of you, understandably, would have been rammed right up your mum's chuff when people like Beckham and Keane and everyone else was playing. I've seen the entirety of the Premier League. so Beckham and Keane to me are your Ronaldo and Roonies so I get it but I've seen them all play and they were my heroes growing up so I hold them in very very high esteem obviously I know Ronaldo's a better player than David Beckham but I'm holding them up as Man United players I'm not interested in what they've done at Real Madrid or being one of the world's greatest players It's what they mean to me as a United great.
29:41The United Stand Team: So it's mine and you can do yours. LJB says, you're pissing me off. Well, mate, I don't care because it's my opinion and I'm not changing it. I just gave it there, simple as that. I really do think some of you don't understand that other people can have different opinions to you based on their own experiences. You really need to grow up. If you want to go and do your own, get yourself on TikTok with that list. I'll put it in the, I'll tell you what I'll do, because I'm a nice guy, I understand community and different opinion. What I'm going to do is, right, because some people are getting really mad in the chat.
30:19The United Stand Team: I'm going to copy and paste the list that Stuart sent. Yeah. I'll put it as a pinned chat in the video description. Then you can get your phone and go on TikTok and record your own either or, and then it's there, you know, and I think it will make you feel better because it's my opinion and it's your opinion and I did it based on who I believe to me are United greats. Winner stays on. Thank you very much. But I will do that for you instead of throwing abuse at you for your opinion. How can people get mad? I don't know, Pam. I genuinely don't know. Anyway, get your comments in. We've still got plenty to discuss this morning.
31:03The United Stand Team: when's the preview for Man City um babe did you see that Moto Casino is giving a 1 ,776 ,000 worth of prizes that's why they're called America's Social Casino celebrating the birth of America bigger than anyone else you can win incredible experiences at NASCAR and F1 races and a grand prize of 1 million sweeps coins so what are you waiting for spin now on Moto Casino download the Moto Casino app today Moto Casino, the social casino.

31:43That's got to go first because it's got more of the story. And then the preview will be up in the next 48 hours. Talking of which, I saw this on the United Stand this morning on the Twitter account at UnitedStandMUFC. I think that's right. or is it, I don't know what United Stand Twitter is. At United Stand MUFC, yeah. So how many points do you think Man United are going to get from our next five games? So we've got Man City away, Chelsea at home,
32:08The United Stand Team: Brentford away, Sunderland at home, Liverpool away. Why is it at every bloody five games we have at the moment are really difficult? Remember at the start of the season, it was Arsenal, Fulham, Burnley, Man City, Chelsea. And all right, we haven't played Man City and Chelsea yet, but then we go on to our next five and you've got Man City, Chelsea and Liverpool. in it. It's not, this is why for me, until we hit game 10, I think this, I think this is going to be, you know, a roller coaster. But look, Man City away, Chelsea at home, Brentford away, Sunderland at home, Liverpool away. Fucking hell, that's tough.
32:45The United Stand Team: I thought we had Liverpool at home. Look, the three away games are difficult. I think we've got to beat Brentford away and we've got to beat Sunderland at home, so that's six. Liverpool away, I don't think we'll get anything. City away, point. I'd like to say 10 from 15, but that's very optimistic when you've got Man City, Chelsea and Liverpool there. It could be six lose to Man City, Chelsea and Liverpool. I think we might end up with seven. Two wins and a draw. Two losses, two wins and a draw. Which is not terrible when you look at who you're playing. And I guarantee if we've got seven points from 15, we'll still be in and around touching distance for fifth.
33:30The United Stand Team: And we'll have played all the top four. I look at it as a marathon, not a sprint, basically. Obviously, I know if we lose to Man City at the weekend, Amrim out, we'll start incredibly. Chelsea, the same. Liverpool, the same. But actually, after these next five games, we'll have played the top four teams in the country. So if we're within a few points of fifth, I'll be very, very happy. And then I think that's when our season starts. So, yeah, it's a tough five games, isn't it? Liverpool, Man City and Chelsea in the next five. I'm going to go with seven, but I think if we beat Chelsea, it could be ten.
34:06The United Stand Team: But yeah. Dazzo says Rashford will be back. Barcelona have got a tight budget and he's still shooting for everywhere and been poor, says Dazzo. I think the thing about Rashford coming back is even if Amrim is here, he could still come back because Barcelona, like you say, might send him back. He's on very, very big wages.
34:29And if he did come back and Amarin was still here, I don't know where we could move him off next. We're almost moving him off each year just to cover the wages.
34:40The United Stand Team: But I think there's a very high chance he'll be in the World Cup squad. So that, you know, surely inflates it as well. Next summer transfer window, just I don't want to talk about transfers, But the next summer transfer window is going to be very, very different to this. For the simple reason we have got such a short transfer window next year. You're going to end the season. It's going to be all about the World Cup buzz. And then the World Cup is going to go on until the middle of July. And then all the teams that go late in the World Cup, and I think a lot of teams will go late in the World Cup because there's so much crap in the World Cup this year, you know, they're going to go on their holidays.
35:19So most players aren't really going to be back until sort of back end of July. And then you're going to be starting the season middle of August. So it's going to be very difficult to do business next summer in the way that United are already projecting. Because the World Cup is so big, so many teams are going to be in it. This is what I mean when people start talking about, oh, next summer, next summer, next summer. I think it's going to be really difficult because there's going to be so many teams that are playing in that tournament and players will be saying I'm focused on this. Look, funnily enough, correct me if I'm wrong, I haven't been keeping a mad eye on what's promoted and what's not.
36:06But I think Cameroon might be missing out on the World Cup, which makes you think about Balaba. But then that makes me think, well, OK, you might have a clear path at Beléber because he's not playing in the World Cup. But does that not catch the eye of Liverpool or Arsenal or Chelsea or Real Madrid as well, that there's a player they can go for that's not playing in the World Cup as well? So I think it's going to be a very challenging summer transfer window and very, very difficult to this one, which basically we've had a whole window of activity because there's not really been anything going on apart from the Club World Cup.
36:38The United Stand Team: So, yeah. Would you mark World Cup in the US? A bloody advertisement nightmare, says the little Primark. I think six and the only teams we beat a City and Liverpool, says Gaz. So we're not going to beat Sunderland or Brentford. OK. I mean, that would be the most United thing ever. Beat Liverpool and Man City away and then lose to Sunderland and Chelsea at home. I think I'd be pulling my hair out of that, really. Let me just go through some of your comments. Brian C says I can see a mid-July World Cup bump directly into panic buys it'll be very interesting what United do with the tour next year as well because
37:25the United States is going to be awash with football for the World Cup would you then send a weak United squad out to the States to do a tour I think they'll be all footballed out by then So I just wonder whether we might go, I don't know what we'll do next year, really. I think the World Cup is just going to be what it's all about.
37:47The United Stand Team: Sugar says, what the fuck? I watch Rashford. He is not shooting at Barcelona. It's a lie. Some of our fans don't deserve football. You've upset him. Where have you been the last five years? We struggle with teams who are mid-table or low in the league. We play very well against the top teams, says Sabi. Any updates on Cunha or Mount? Hope you're well, says Ray-Anne. Well, I was literally on the list to talk about injuries. So Man United are back today with the vast majority of the squad. What I do know is, let me just have a look at fixtures because obviously some people are still playing tonight.
38:25Some people played last night. So yeah, look, England players, I don't think England have got any. Uruguay played last night as well but it was probably a silly kick-off time which is obviously Agate I don't know whether Lyon played for Paraguay or not I'm not too sure I don't know whether he even got called up but he wouldn't be playing anyway so I think most people have played now there is no other international games everybody has played obviously some people have got to get on planes I know De Ligt's back today because the Netherlands played I think on Sunday or Monday so effectively you're going to see a trickle of players coming back to Manchester United today and tomorrow ahead of the game against Manchester City.
39:15Casemiro was back anyway because he was suspended for the Brazil game last night. As we know, Manu didn't get called up, Maguire didn't get called up. so yeah look hopefully everybody returns okay I mean look I saw something about Mamouche bruising his knee or something like that so you know that's for Man City I think from all reports we're getting we've not picked up any injuries over the international break as far as we're concerned but as far as we're aware but obviously Kunia and Mount as Ryan quite quite rightly communicates were injured in our last game So what is the latest on them? I think the next 48 hours will add a lot of clarity because when the team's back properly training ahead of the game, this is where you're going to get clarity on their availability.
40:10what we do know is and we reported this last week is that Mainu sorry Mount is not expected to be back until the Chelsea game which is a week on Saturday and that Kunja whilst not as bad there was hope that he could be involved on Sunday but now there are other suggestions that that won't be the case so I think that Mount was more precautionary Konya had the potential to be five or six weeks with a hamstring thing but it's not as bad so you've sort of got this scenario now where it's like well are we going to get a shock where one of them are available for Sunday I don't think we will and if they're not available for Sunday will they be back for Chelsea which is on the following Saturday which is not far away I suspect neither starts on Sunday just because of the way Man United work We're so health and safety focused when it comes to injuries now that we don't seem to take risks on players anyway.
41:14I think a few years ago, maybe one of these players could start and you take the risk. But we just don't seem to do that. It's computer says no, isn't it? So I don't think they're going to be involved. Hopefully, they're both back for the Chelsea game. And I say that because we don't really have a lot of leeway this season. Like we're out the Carabao Cup. We're not in Europe. So Premier League points and Premier League games become cup finals in themselves. And we have to treat every game like that. And look, we haven't in the past. Let's put our hands up. We don't treat every Premier League game like a cup final.
41:49We don't. We go, oh, you know, we've got this, you know, we've got Brentford and then we've got, you know, Roma in the Champions League or whatever. So we've got to treat every game like a cup final. And part of that is making sure that your best team plays in every game. So the fitness departments at Man United need to do their bloody job. And we can't just be going, we'd rather take a precaution and keep him out for the next three weeks. If I'm Amarim, I'm saying, hold on a minute. If you want to keep your fucking job, stop telling me about precautions and, you know, taking it steady. I want, I need these players.
42:21These points are really important. And these players are really important. I need these players. My fellow Americans, this July, we're celebrating America's birthday at Moto Casino by giving away$1 ,776 ,000 in prizes. And one lucky winner is going to take home$1 ,000 ,000 SC.

Visit Moto.us for more details. Moto Casino. America's social casino. So stop thinking about precautionary and best case scenario. I want these players.
43:03So how do I get these players back? And don't tell me they're fine, but we'd rather give them another week. If they're fine, they're fine. But the balance of that is if they're injured, you can't use them. And I think we will find out in the next 24 to 48 hours. But don't expect Amrim to say in his press conference on Friday that they're both out. I just think that the chances of them both starting are going to be minimal. But the positive thing is neither injury has been described as long term. So, you know, with Mainu, sorry, I keep saying Mainu. With Mount, he tends to get injured and you don't see him for three months.
43:42It's not sounding like that. And with Kunja, although he was clutching his hamstring, it's not like... I saw the other day that Dalap is out for like three months with his. and a similar thing happened you just pull up so in some ways we're fortunate
44:01The United Stand Team: I think we have to go all in for Elliot Anderson he's going to be special this is Callum I think in relation to the thank you very much for your super chat this morning Callum get your comments in for the last few minutes of the show I think in relation to Elliot Anderson I sort of look at Newcastle and go isn't PSR a bitch because 22 years of age looks like one of the best up and coming midfielders in the league I mean it's not like Newcastle don't have a good midfield, he probably wouldn't be starting. So for him, it's probably a really good career move to go to Forrest. But he does look very good.
44:32The United Stand Team: He looks very good. Like I watched him yesterday playing with Declan Rice and he looks really good. Yeah. He was at Newcastle and they sold him to Forrest. So look, he'll be on the move somewhere. I suppose the positive is Anderson, Wharton, Balaba, Yulmland. There are Stilla, you know there are options out there and there will be more options if we scout well um it's a shame we didn't get one in in the summer but at some point obviously we we have to appreciate and accept that that window is closed so yeah look I like the look of him will man united look at that I'm always of the opinion like the striker market this summer we benefited massively the fact that there was a lot of strikers.
45:24You know, we landed on Szczesko after looking at another four or five and we still got a good striker. And that was really positive because as much as I would have liked Osman or Jokeres, we still ended up with a good striker because there was a lot of good strikers. I look at the midfield market and I think it's already shaping up that way. And that's before any breakouts. I mean, there's a couple of players in the Bundesliga that I think could be very interesting around March next year if they continue to grow. There's a lad at St. Pauli, Fujita, who I really want to look at again. He looks good.
45:56There's a lad at Leipzig who they've only just brought in and he only had a cameo against Bayern, but I think he might come through as well. And no doubt there'll be others around Europe. So if that midfield market expands, you can't miss. It's like shooting fish in a barrel. You can't miss. If you've only got, if Belabe is the only decent midfielder and four or five teams want him, you know, it becomes problematic. But look, Callum, I agree.
46:24The United Stand Team: I think Elliot Anderson's another player that you've got to add into the list. And I think, you know, the ideal for Manchester United is to have English players. We're a bit short on English players or British players and you do need to be careful about the homegrown rules. So, you know, Wharton, Anderson would be very attractive players, but there's a long way to go. and I hope that there are a lot of other options as well. Liam Vernon says, people will say after watching England bring back Rashford, he's a brilliant player. That's player FC working into effect. England is not Man United, says Liam.
47:01I quite enjoyed watching England last night, which is a rarity, but you know what my thoughts are on international football.
47:07The United Stand Team: It's slow and it bears no resemblance to the realities of club football. Yeah. Brian says, Fujita looked average for Japan last night. I rest my case. As I said, I've only seen him play once for St. Pauli. He might be an absolute bag of shit. He's only just come into the Bundesliga. So, there will be players in other leagues as well. Draw with Liverpool. Pump the rest, says Kiel Robinson. Thank you very much to Rayan. I appreciate that as well. And we've done that from Kiel as well. Where are all the English strikers, says John. I don't know. I don't know. I was having this chat last night. England haven't produced a world-class goalkeeper since David Seaman.
47:54In 1995, the list of English strikers was incredible.
48:00The United Stand Team: You had Teddy Sheringham, Andy Cole, Alan Shearer, Chris Sutton, Ian Wright, Les Ferdinand, Robbie Fowler, Stan Collymore, Chris Armstrong I think Peter Beardsley was still playing as well I mean there was just so many English strikers and it just I suppose it just goes in swings and roundabouts we seem to have loads and loads and loads of number 10s at the moment don't we? Cole Palmer Gibbs White Morgan Rogers Phil Foden Duke Bellingham there's just loads and loads and there's a lot of wide players as well Rashford, Gordon, Saka, Ezi, Maduweke. Yeah, but there's not loads of strikers. I don't know why.
48:52The United Stand Team: Maybe something's happening in youth football that people don't want to play up front. When I was growing up, everyone wanted to play up front.
49:04But yeah, if we're going to buy next summer, we need to be scouting really, really well and we need to be ahead of the game because I think next summer market's going to be very condensed
49:15The United Stand Team: because of the World Cup, of course. Anyhow, let me just take a few more comments from you. Dwight York wasn't English. Would you go for Liveramento? I like Liveramento, Liam, but obviously he's at Newcastle, so I don't think he's going to go anywhere. I think United tried to get Belieber earlier as getting player Wharton still is hard as both are very demanding for the club, especially Stilla, says Jan. I think Beliba will be very difficult to get as well. Beliba is the real thing, says the Rogue. SM says, so many gifted memberships and I didn't get one. I've got some memberships to gift tonight, so tune in at the 8 o 'clock show tonight.
49:54Morgan Rogers looks the best of the bunch to me, says John. I like Rogers. Very good player. I'm very surprised Villa have had a bad start to the season, actually. He's a very, very good player. he'll be on the move soon we don't need a number 10 though do we
50:09The United Stand Team: we really shouldn't need a number 10 for a long long time
50:17Nosebag says moaning about bringing the players back but then you're moaning when the physios don't look after the squad
50:26The United Stand Team: I think you make a good point but we're not in Europe we're not in the Carabao Cup we've basically only got Premier League games between now and Christmas that is unique and scary we've only got Premier League games between now and Christmas so every Premier League game becomes a cup final and we need to be putting our best team out in it we can't have a bloody injury crisis when we're not playing many games every game I said this maybe the international break has changed things a little bit but we need to be scrutinising every aspect of every game between weekends. I don't think we've ever had that opportunity before because you go from one game to another.
51:10But we need to be scrutinising every area of every game in the midweek to the finest detail because we need to be treating every game like a bloody cup final. And if there's a half an hour where the left wing back's done this and they've scored a goal. We need to be scrutinising that. And the club do as well.
51:32The United Stand Team: We need to be getting the best team out we can, week in, week out. Thank you everybody for watching. I'm looking forward to it. And I think the chart show is going to play massively into that because obviously you're going to see how the chart show is going to run. Did I not mention Ian Wright? I think I did say Ian Wright the Bitter Moose. But if I didn't, that's another one.
51:54The United Stand Team: What's your line-up against City? You'll have to wait for the preview. you have to you have to do you think Mainu will start against City no I think he'll go with Bruno and Casemiro unless well I'll give you a spoiler if Mainu if Mount and Kunja can't play Bruno's got to play as a 10 and Mainu's got to play with Casemiro thanks everyone for watching take care we're back at 2 I'm back at 8 got lots to get involved in and make sure you smash a like and don't forget it's exciting because the chart show is coming back thanks everyone where you've been watching from live or not leave your comments and I will pin the winner stays on thing because obviously that caused some disagreements speak to you all in a bit take care
