1:21Hello, everybody, and welcome back to the United Stand on today's show. Elliot Anderson, Manchester United's top target but is he possible in the summer? It's looking like Manchester United want to do that deal but it's going to prove very very difficult which means Carlos Beliba is the favourite to come to Manchester United. Can Manchester United afford to miss out on the likes of Elliot Anderson? We've missed out on the likes of Jude Bellingham in the past, we've missed out on Declan Rice who we've been linked to. Would this be another mistake to not go and take that plunge, pay the money, wait for him after the World Cup and go and get him?

1:57Or will Manchester United just want a deal wrapped up very, very quickly, someone who you'd be able to get if you pay the price pretty soon at the start of the summer in Carlos Belieber, who might be a little bit more of a risk? Get your comments in, let me know. Would you rather Belieber in straight away, start the window, or would you rather wait around and hope that we can manage to persuade Elliot Anderson to join Manchester United and persuade Nottingham Forest to sell him for the right price as well. Let me know your thoughts on that. We're going to get into it. Also, some more news coming out about Ruben Amrim's wish for Anton Semenyo.

2:31We've heard about the release clause of Anton Semenyo. It's a fantastic£65 million release clause with£60 million up front. Ruben Amrim really likes the player, but how feasible is it for Manchester United? Well, it's coming out from The Athletic about some news around that, So I can't wait to bring that in and have a little discussion around Semenyo. Also a little bit about Sonny Lamens as well. Fantastic. Yesterday in his senior debut for Belgium. So very happy for him. I'm going to discuss him a little bit. And some more news coming out about Ruben Amarin. What he's like behind the scenes. What he's like with the players.

3:06The connection he has with the players. How he's seen in and around the club. And why he's been able to keep the dressing room onside. Going to talk about that. and there's some stuff around Shea Lacey as well. Could he be in line to make his debut soon for Manchester United? Amarim really likes him, so we're going to discuss that too. Anything else that comes out, we'll be bringing it into the show. Happy, happy, happy Wednesday. Midweek it is. And we're getting closer. We're getting closer to that Manchester United game on Monday night. I cannot wait for it. And I just cannot wait for Premier League football, to be back, to be honest with you.

3:39Although the international break has been a bit of a cracker, hasn't it? it's been a bit of a Christmas cracker nearly at Christmas so far I mean Scott McTominay's goal the bicycle kick fantastic and then Ireland that was a really good kind of story as well to watch Andy Robertson did everybody see his interview speaking about how he was thinking about Diogo Giotto when Scotland qualified it really touched my heart I had a tear in my eye it's been quite a good international break and usually I can't wait for Premier League football to be back and I still am you know itching to see Man United play again and get the Prem back but the international football on this international break I think it's actually been pretty good and it's made me a little bit more excited for the World Cup I tell you that but anyway get your comments in let us know what you're thinking what you're feeling on this Wednesday morning anyway let's start off so I want to talk a little bit about Elliot Anderson and the transfer setback that Manchester United could be facing with this deal so it's coming from Nathan Salt of the Daily Mail very good journalist knowing myself and he's got some good insight in and around the club and he has said this the long-term plan has been to undergo the extensive surgery in the summer of 2026 now that the club believe they have ready-made players set for other positions so the extensive surgery of the midfield the issue with Anderson is that Nottingham Forest are notoriously difficult to deal with and negotiate with he's set to play a starring role at the World Cup as one of the focal points in Thomas Tuchel's England and he's going to cost in excess of£100 million as a result of that and I can't wait to get Ben back on the show just to get it clarified again because there's a couple things I want to unpick here first and foremost are we incapable of signing a player just because he's gone to the World Cup I mean I know it's an international competition and I know that it does take the player away for a large chunk of the summer transfer window but there's periods before the World Cup, there's periods after the World Cup.

5:38Why does the World Cup make us incapable of signing players? Yes, it would be easier to do it outside of the World Cup but surely at Manchester United you want players that are competing on the highest stage at the highest level that are picked for their national teams. Elliot Anderson is going to start for England in the World Cup, I'm pretty sure of it. He's been fantastic this season, you want the best of the best playing for Man United. We should have players in our squad playing for England, playing for their countries. We should have that. Not just England, but internationally as well. Obviously, I'm English and I support England.

6:18So I look at the England squad and I've always recognised Man United players in there. I've always gone, you know, there's Wayne Rooney, there's Cobby Manu last season, there's Harry Maguire, there's Luke Shaw and what other players? Marcus Rashford other players that we've had in our lifetime and you kind of think back but we've always had players in the national team for England and there's always Man United players there it is really dry for Manchester United and England right now I actually don't think we have one player from our squad currently called up for Thomas Tuchel's England squad, am I mistaken?

6:55I don't think there's one player Marcus Rashford's the closest thing because he's on loan. That's it. That's not good. That's not good for Manchester United. When the lifeblood of Manchester United Football Club is our academy and bringing players up for the academy. And of course, you know, you buy in international talents. You go and buy in talents from South America, from Europe. And I'm all for that. I think it's a really positive thing we do. But to not have one player from Manchester United, the biggest English club in the world playing for England. I don't like it. I really don't like it.

7:33I like to be able to have some players in there. And I think it's good to represent the biggest club in England on the national stage as well. So, I mean, the closest one to get into that World Cup squad, I would say, by the end of the season, would be Luke Shaw. I think Luke Shaw could be knocking on the door. He's played every game for United so far this season. He's quality. And England have a little bit of a weak spot when it comes to that left-back area. He can play left-sided centre-back. He can play left-back. He can play left-wing-back. I wouldn't be surprised if Luke Shaw ends up getting in by the end of the year.

8:09Harry Maguire doesn't seem to fancy him. And plus, Harry Maguire's had his time in England. I wouldn't say he's had his time. I actually still would consider taking Harry Maguire if I was Thomas Tuchel. But he's had his prime years, hasn't he? He might not even stay at Manchester United past this season. And then you look across, Cobby Maynew should be there. I think he absolutely should be there. It pains me to see the likes of Elliot Anderson, Adam Wharton, them type of players kind of been given their flowers and Cobby Maynew's missing out because I feel like he has the talent. But he's not been played, so he's not there.

8:40We don't have anybody playing in the England national team and I think we should want players that are playing at the highest level. we should want players that are starting for their countries. I mean, Bruno Fernandes starting for his country is one of our best players and he's also one of Portugal's best players, in my opinion. So, you know, that's what we want kind of all over the pitch. And yeah, it might be difficult to negotiate for Elliot Anderson while the World Cup is going on, but it's not impossible. What you do is you make Nottingham Forest aware. You make Nottingham Forest aware very early doors and you make Elliot Anderson aware very early doors.

9:19we want to sign you this summer so if you're Manchester United you go on get in contact with Elliot Anderson's representatives Elliot Anderson's camp and you say we're gonna would you want to join Manchester United because we're gonna get in contact with Nottingham Forest about signing you and we really want you you're pitching the project this is before he goes out to the World Cup if he's if he's willing to listen you pitch him the project and you say are you happy with us contacting Nottingham Forest about a potential move he goes look I would love to join Manchester United I'm talking an ideal world I would love to join Manchester United I know there's quite a few clubs interested in me but I'd absolutely be willing to listen to your offer and I'm happy with you to negotiate with Nottingham Forest I want to put all my attention on the World Cup right now it's my first World Cup I've got a really big opportunity here to show myself on a world stage playing for England I just want to fully focus on the England camp and the World Cup and then when I get back because this is what most players do if not all most players would prefer it this way some some will move mid-tournament even even though it wouldn't be ideal for them some might move beforehand but ideally most footballers just want to lock in on the world cup you can speak to my agent throughout the world cup if you want he knows what i want but while i'm at the world cup i'm going to lock in when i get back that's where i'm going to decide which club i go to and what move i'm going to make and it's up to you to negotiate with forrest for that Manchester United goes Elliot I hear you it's one of the reasons we want you you're you're a top professional and on top of that we want players that are playing at this level and that's exactly what you are so we're going to go away now you give us the green light that you would sign for us we're going to go away we're going to talk to Nottingham Forest and we're going to figure out a way to do this deal Elliot Anderson gets back from the World Cup United have done the majority of the legwork with Nottingham Forest around a fee.

Because of how slow ships move for most of this war, the U.S.

11:54was still receiving oil that set sail months ago. But other parts of the world are already feeling it. Asia. Europe. Africa. That's why prices are rising now, because demand is increasing as supply tightens. But the U.S. is just beginning to experience the real shortage, and even if things stabilize, the ripple effects will last for much, much longer. Oil doesn't just power your car. It powers the systems that make and deliver your medications, and when supply slows, access becomes less predictable. The difference between panic and peace is preparedness with Jace. The Jace case is a doctor-prescribed emergency supply of essential medications and prescription antibiotics delivered right to your door so you're already ready when you need it.

12:41Get your Jace case today at jace.com. What fee would it take to get Elliot Anderson out of Nottingham Forest and to Manchester United? Elliot Anderson gets back. We've spoke to your agent. We've negotiated a contract. This is the offer we are putting to you. And I'm sure other clubs will probably do this. Newcastle apparently in the race. There could be other clubs in for Elliot Anderson. and he looks at his offers and he goes I want to go to Newcastle which would be gutting when you've put in all that legwork or he goes you know what I'm really sold on Manchester United Nottingham Forest have already agreed that fee with Manchester United or there and thereabouts there's not much to do the contract's basically in place it's been locked over by the agent Elliot Anderson just has to kind of approve everything and that is where you handle a player that's at the World Cup and just wants to be absolutely locked in on the World Cup.

13:28They have agents, not even Forrest's owners aren't at the World Cup are they? You can speak to them. It's not as if all communication to any transfer just locks off as soon as the World Cup begins. It's a busier time period and it is more difficult but you can get deals done and you can do them in an efficient way. So it wouldn't put me off the fact that he's playing in a World Cup. I want, I can't stress it enough, I want players that are the top level players to be at Manchester United when we're rebuilding our midfield which is what we're doing we're going under a process in this summer of completely rebuilding our midfield I want the best of the best ready to come in and play and if that's Elliot Anderson you do what I've just said in a roundabout way and you go and get the deal done you don't just go for an easier option because negotiations are going to be difficult or and we'll have to wait a little bit.

14:21It's a World Cup year. Deal with it and get the plays you want because this time next year, if you go for the easier option, Elliot Anderson's absolutely balling out wherever he ends up and we've gone for the easy option but he's not as good. You think to yourself, oh, probably should have just put the extra effort in in the summer to go and make sure that deal got done. Probably should have just paid the extra 10 million to make sure that deal got done. At the end of the day, you pay for what you get and the work you put in, you'll get back and the reason why it'll be a little bit more difficult to get Elliot Anderson in the summer is because he's worth it.

14:54It's because he's worth it. So I'm still on the bandwagon of I would want to go all in for Elliot Anderson. I am still on that path. I think Manchester United, if they let Elliot Anderson slip through their fingers, I think it'd be a mistake. Like, we've been here so many times before where top talents end up slipping through our fingers because we won't put the legwork in to get the deals done. We don't want to go and pay the money. We don't want to wait. We don't want to, or we don't, you know, we don't negotiate properly with the club. It's happened before. Declan Rice is a massive one. We wanted to go and get Declan Rice.

15:34Ollie wanted Declan Rice, but West Ham were quite difficult to negotiate with. They wanted a big fee. but Declan Rice was open to joining Manchester United it didn't end up happening he's probably on track to win a Premier League now I know Keir is in a good team at Arsenal he's one of the better midfielders in the league and he's going to be playing for England throughout the World Cup because that's the top talents the top talents go and play these competitions and we've let these top talents again I've got it's not as if because people will tarnish with the brush English bias but there should be some national pride of having some English players in the Man United side playing for us.

16:11And Declan Rice is one we missed out on. We've missed out previously. I don't want to miss out on Elliot Anderson as well. But let me know your thoughts. Jonathan says, Maynou is not good enough for England right now. Neither is sure. Right this second... No, because Adam Wharton's absolutely killing it. Elliot Anderson's killing it. Declan Rice is obviously fantastic. So we've got some really good midfielders playing for England right now. however I think if Maynard was actually playing football week in week out he'd at least be an option and be up there for Thomas Tuchel but unfortunately he's not being able to showcase himself the way that all these players are Adam Wharton starting every week for Crystal Palace Elliot Anderson starting every week for Nottingham Forest Declan Rice is starting every week for Arsenal like players are starting every week and Kobe Maynard can't even get off the bench half the time we're playing one game a week so it's hard to kind of show yourself when you're doing that I think Luke Shaw is absolutely good enough to play for England it's just whether he it's just whether he you know is fit enough to get into Thomas Tuchel's eye line because I don't think Thomas Tuchel's thought about him properly yet um so yeah and just on that as well with the England thing that it'll be the same for Adam Wharton by the way a lot of people want Adam Wharton I know everybody has their preferences but it'll be the it'll be the same thing for Adam Morton he's at the World Cup you're gonna have to negotiate with Palace during that time period and then you you put all the plans in place and this is where Manchester United have to be on it and I have more faith I have more faith in our current recruitment team with Jason Wilcox Omar Barada and the team they've got to do the legwork first I have way more faith because I'm going to speak about Semenyo in a little bit and we spoke to Semenyo in March last year about a potential deal We spoke to Brian Mbumo in March last year about a potential deal.

18:01So I have more faith in this recruitment team than I have in previous years for United. You've got to be in a situation, if you're United, where you have Wharton potentially lined up, Anderson potentially lined up, Belaber potentially lined up. I'm not saying you need 10 midfielders lined up and you just go, that one, after the World Cup. But if we're seriously interested in Adam Wharton, he's going to a World Cup. Get that deal. in place or get the ball rolling. Elliot Anderson, same thing which I've just explained. And the players that are going to be on the plane going to the World Cup, you've got to kind of get these things in place early doors so you have a crack at it because there's going to be other clubs that want these players.

18:42So yeah, let's see what happens with that. Regarding Belieber, this is why it makes me think United are probably way more likely to go for him. And it's a very interesting situation, isn't it? because like I said, United should have the best of the best, but Balaba is still going to cost a lot of money, you can assume, from Brighton. They do not let players go for cheap. Despite his dipping form, they are still persisting that they think he's going to be the next Caicedo, if not even better. And Caicedo, for me, is probably the best centre-defensive midfielder in the league right now. So that's what they're persisting on.

19:19Unless Balaba is an absolute nightmare from now until the end of the season, I still think they're going to want at least£80 million for him, if not more. and one, should you pay that anyway when the players had a bad season because that'll mean he's had a poor full season if the price drops to there. Do you still take a chance? And two, will Man United just go for the belabor option because he's been scouted out in the summer, Amorim really likes him, he likes his attributes, he feels like he can get the best out of him, or will they go for him because Elliot Anderson's a bit too expensive, Adam Wharton's going to be difficult to get?

20:01Is it just out of convenience that we're going to go for Carlos Belieber next summer? That is my question because if it's the Carlos Belieber of last season, I am there, I'm at the front of the queue, I think he could be fantastic. But I've watched him quite a bit this season now and he's just not been anywhere near at it. Bruno and Casemiro scored him at Old Trafford and they're the players that people are looking to eventually replace and upgrade on. Or not upgrade, but pass the baton on to. Them two midfielders that are over 30, we're looking to replace them with the likes of a Belieber, but Belieber's just been schooled by them this season.

20:38So are we going for Belieber because he's the absolute best, best, best possible target for Reuben Amrim's midfield? Or are we going for him because he might be slightly cheaper because he had a poor season and because he's not going for the World Cup. So it's just going to be, we can get straight to him. We can get that deal done. Is that why we're going for him? And I mean, do you think that would be acceptable even if we did do that? Some people might think just get somebody in quickly and they can embed into the squad. But there's not really going to be much squad there because a lot of our players are going to be on international duty.

21:10The reason Carlos Bley was not in the World Cup is because unfortunately Camarion didn't qualify, which I'm gutted for Mbumo about. But you do have a straight kind of run at him. And if he continues the way he is, I'm not sure how many clubs will be knocking on Belieber's door in the summer. They might give it another season just to see if he can get that form back. If we sign Belieber, I don't want to be too negative. It's not as if I'd be disappointed because I know that there's a player in there, but I would just be worried. I would be really worried. It's a very high risk signing for a very high fee.

21:42Has he got the mentality to not let the heaviness of the shirt affect him? Is he going to be the Belieber of last season or are we going to get the Belieber of this season? because if it's a blabler this season, I'm sorry, it doesn't start for us. It doesn't. Which one are we getting? The mind games he's played a little bit. Is that the kind of character you want in the team? We know Reuben Amarim, Jason Wilcox, they do these background checks. So I would kind of have to trust that his character has been approved by Amarim, his character has been approved by Wilcox, and they are so thorough on that.

22:13So thorough. If we did sign him, you'd have to trust that. Every player that we've signed under Amarim and under Wilcox has had a top, top personality and had full background checks done on them. So you'd like to think so. However, it's just, it's a little bit more risky for me. Whereas with the other players I've mentioned, specifically Anderson, you just know exactly what you're getting straight away. Exactly what you're getting. But that's why it's a more difficult deal to do. But let me know, I can see us going for Bleiba. We are going to go for two. So if we went for Bleiba, we could go for another player as well.

22:45and I think we will go for another player, but what player it would be. Maybe United think, look, we'll trust that Belieber's going to be the player that we scouted. We're going to trust our instincts on this. We can get him quite easily right now. Watch Brighton absolutely play hard goal. Hardball throughout the whole summer and we don't get him until the last week of August. I mean, it's just typical. But we could just go and get him right now if we pay Brighton the money and we get him sorted. And then the difficult deal we're going to do, we have the whole summer to focus on that then. So they might go with that approach, but I can see United going for Belieb out of ease, where I actually think we should be heading towards the more difficult deals because they're the best possible profiles for Amrim, for this team.

23:24And it's about the long term. And if you rush something. Hey, guys, Lady Luck here. Are you going on any road trips this summer? I know I'm going to be going on a bunch of road trips.

24:51Sometimes you don't always get the best result. Patience is a virtue. Patience is a virtue. you what uh what i wanted to get into as well is the fact that nathan salt said anderson's fee could be in excess of 100 million pounds is going to cost in excess of 100 million pounds the reason i brought ben jacobs up at the start of the show is because he's told us on the show twice now that there's a way there's something in his contract it's not a release cause, but there's some terms in his contract which means that Elliot Anderson could go for a lot cheaper than£100 million. And he said he would be very, very, very surprised if Elliot Anderson leaves Nottingham Forest in the summer for anywhere near£100 million.

25:37He said he thinks it will be over£50, but he doesn't think it will be anywhere near£100. So it's interesting that it's been reported multiple times. I think Plettigold reported it, Nathan Salt's reporting it. It's been reported that it's likely to cost over£100 million, but Ben Jacobs, who has had some really good moments and and really good scoops I mean he was one of the first ones onto Sesco in the summer before we got him right at the start of the summer has said to his knowledge Elliot Anderson will go from Nottingham Forest for a lot cheaper so I'd really love to get some clarity on that do you think it will be 100 million do you trust Ben that it's going to be less than that let me know your thoughts I mean I'm inclined to trust what Ben Jacobs has said because he's been right on multiple things we spoke about on the show however are the clauses what sort of clauses are they?

26:23Are they very niche? For example, if he plays in the World Cup final does it mean he can go for£100 million? Does it depend if England get there? There's loads of little... I mean, I really, really doubt that that's a clause in a contract but there could be clauses that mean if certain things happen it means that that lower figure is null and void but Ben must be quite sure it's gettable if he's said it twice now on the shows he must be quite sure that whatever the term is is very gettable for Manchester United that he could be lower than 100 million so I'd be very interested to see what happens with that so we'll have to keep an eye on that when it comes to Elliot Anderson but yeah let me get some of your comments in for sure for sure let me get some of your comments in going to the live chat now smash a like on the video by the way really do appreciate everybody tuning in and getting your thoughts in Daniel Kristoff says if Anderson keeps playing decent slash good this whole season and does it good with England and next season he can be a hundred million player but break through season a few good games and a hundred million plus well I don't think it is going to be a hundred million Daniel but that's that's what's being reported widely it's been mixed reports on that so we've not got a hundred percent clarity yet what I would say is patience is a virtue it really is patience is a virtue I've been renovating my house recently and my family are taking the mick out of me taking the p155 out of me because it takes me about five hours to paint one wall but when i tell you the walls i paint it's like i've paid a decorator top dollar i'm not to take my own horn but i could genuinely come and paint someone's house and you think that a decorator's done it it's like it could be like a secret talent if if if this if this fails you know speaking to you guys about football Manchester United then I've got a backup plan but I won't make any money because it takes me hours on end to get it perfect because for me I'm one of them people I don't know about you guys I'm zero or a hundred so I'm either not bothering and something doesn't interest me in the slightest or I am giving my absolute 100 % effort every single time so if I'm going to do something for example if I'm going to pay a wall if I'm going to compete in a high rocks if I'm going to go on a run I'm going to give absolutely everything or else I don't do it so it's either not all or everything and it has to be perfect I'm trying to get over the fact that things have to be perfect but give absolutely everything to it and it kind of translates in this transfer I'm either don't bother or go and get the best and we should bother and you know the likes of Jao Gomez would be a good option for us I do think there's definitely a player in Belieber and I do think there's options out there that you can get that are a little bit easier that will do a good job for us but I do think we'll regret it if we don't go for the absolute best and I do think Ellie Anderson falls into that category so it's worth sometimes taking the time when I look back when I'm just sat there with a cup of tea or a coffee I don't I don't drink tea I'm going to be so honest I'm a coffee drinker when I'm sat there with a coffee and I'm admiring my painting I'm going to think thank god I spent like five hours painting that because it looks amazing now and I can admire it and you feel better about it and in a year's time when Anderson is starting every game for United and he's killing it in the midfield United will be sat there saying I'm so glad we spent that money I'm so glad we spent that time negotiating this deal I'm so glad we did that because you could be in a situation where the player you have bought that was a bit easier he's kind of coming off the bench or he's doing alright but you're already thinking probably need to bring in another midfielder next summer or probably need to bring in some help to help this player settle in might need to go for another midfielder in two years you go and get the right one now and it can last you for years on end so it's like you know if you don't paint your wall properly this time next year you could be nagging the ball and chain saying you're gonna have to get a decorator in you absolutely mess that one up whereas if you just put the effort in to start with you know in the future you'll thank yourself and that's how i feel about united very long-winded but yeah that's how that's how i that's how i am you cheeky sod carp or die says bet you're repainting in less than a year no it's i do i might post some pictures on my instagram story and you'll be able to see.

30:54I've even got paint in my nails. Can you see that? All last night, working away. I don't know how HD the cameras are. Go big or go home mentality. Exactly, go big or go home.

31:11Some people think I'm overrated Elliot Anderson. I mean, maybe I've just watched the games this season where he's been basically man of the match every game and even for England he's done really well. But, you know, feel free to have your opinion, of course. I mean let's talk a little bit about Anton Semenyo as well, talk about Sonny Lamans, we've got so much more to talk about in this show, a little bit about Ruben Amorim, but before we do that I do have to tell you guys, because if I don't tell you, you might miss out and that would be devastating for you and I'm doing you a big favour here.

31:40that's football on Friday Bundesliga it will be Mainz versus Hoffenheim 7.15 the stream starts and it's for a 7.30 kickoff live match of the Bundesliga game Mainz versus Hoffenheim Goldbridge will be watching it along with you and giving you the commentary make sure you are tuning in and then we've got even more treats in store for you because as I said at the start the show Premier League football is back Burnley versus Chelsea Goldbridge will be doing a watch for that. Newcastle versus Man City, a watch along will also happen for that. And then Sunday, it is the North London Derby. It's Arsenal versus Spurs.

32:18Make sure you're there. That'll be a cracker. That'll be a good game. I wonder how each team will approach that one, but you can watch it all and get in that football community by heading over there, switching notifications on and stay tuned for them games.

32:37Stephen Brown says it took us seven weeks to get Mbumo in. We will have to start talks now. I mean, that's what I said. It might be easier on paper to go and get blaboring, but knowing what we're like, I mean, even when it's an open goal, it takes us a while, doesn't it? It does take us a while. But let me get into the Semenyo news because this is another player that we could look at. So this is coming in from The Athletic on Anton Semenyo. Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim admires Antoine Semenyo but meeting his 65 million release clause Bournemouth are asking for would be difficult for the club to do in January and then Duncan Castles has said Amorim had dinner with Semenyo in London at the end of last season to assess his character ahead of a future move but any move is unlikely to happen in the winter.

33:30So what you're telling me there is it's not completely impossible like that's that's given me a little bit of faith it's like when someone tries to close the door but you know when it's like a jar and you can see a little bit of crack of light coming through still still slightly open what gives me faith about this is that Ruben Amorim clearly really likes the player he was scouted out in the back end of last season and we begun talking to him in March.

Do you remember when... Right, I'll cast your mind back. Do you remember when Sonny Lamans came into Manchester United in the summer and he did an interview with the club? And one part of the interview which kind of really shocked me is they asked, have you spoke to the manager yet?

34:56And he said, no, I've not had a chance to speak to him yet, but I'm excited to meet him. And I thought, Reuben Amrum hasn't even spoken to Senegal Evans before we've signed him. Usually the manager would talk to a player and talk to them about their projects, what they see their future like in the club, what they expect from them, see their character. But to be honest with you, and it's all worked out now, I think Reuben Amrum was way more bothered about trying to bring Emi Martinez in. he had phone calls, multiple phone calls with Emi Martinez. This was well documented at the time. It was well reported.

35:28And the club opted to go with Sonny Lam. And so it was probably Wilcox who had spoke about the goalkeeper coach kind of getting onto his case and really pester him about Sonny Lam and saying this is the right guy to go for. So it was probably Wilcox, Vavelle, the recruitment team that kind of put the foot down on that Omnivruven Amrim and said, look, Emi Martinez is an option, but we really feel strongly that Sonny Lam is the right guy. and Amorim was probably just like okay I trust you guys like bring him in I'd rather have a goalkeeper coming in than no one coming in or god forbid Owen Arna starting for me for the whole season or Binders starting for me for the whole season so we went with Sonny Lamans but he hadn't actually spoke to Ruben Amorim according to his interview which is I kind of thought wow okay that's that's I'm shocked about that but Ruben Amorim he's already met up according to this report he's already met up with Anton Semenyo so he's gone out of his way to go and look at his character speak to him that shows that Amarim likes him it shows that Amarim does like Semenyo and clearly highly rates him so I think if Ruben Amarim knows about this release clause which he will that can be conversations that he'll be putting putting forward towards the board at Manchester United and I really do think he'll be pushing for him and I know the mood is on it said the move is unlikely and the Athletics said it would be difficult for the club to do in January so meeting the 65 million release calls would be difficult for the club to do yeah it'd be difficult to do but we want to do it I'm getting from that we want to do it Amorim would want to do it Amorim would want to have Semenyo I think the club would want to make Amorim happy by going and getting Semenyo I think he fits the criteria that Ineos are going for with their recruitment strategy 25 years old the same age range as Brian and Bumo and Cunha coming into Manchester United Premier League proven so not only is he at that age range where he's had a bit of a few years of experience but he's ready to go into his prime he's ready to hit the ground running straight away because he's already on fire in the Prem and he can just continue that but just wearing a different kit and in a different team just the same way that Kuno and Mbimo are and they've settled him really well and has good character Ruben Amorim clearly liked him when he went for that meeting with him because Manchester United are still interested and we were interested in him but I I think towards the end of last season, Bournemouth were quoting around£75 million for him and it was quite a difficult deal to do.

37:51And of course we had to go and get Brian Mbimo, who, I'm going to be so honest, as much as I think Semenyo is a top, top, top, top, top player, I wouldn't swap Brian Mbimo for Semenyo. I wouldn't. Brian Mbimo for me is the best signing we've done in years. Cunha was one that Rui Benamarin really wanted and he'd name-dropped him previously throughout the season. he had a release clause so it was an open goal for us really at that point in the summer we'd budgeted for them two number 10s now Semenyo so Semenyo got kind of got put on the back burner but as I was saying on the show yesterday he's a versatile forward that can play in any of them positions across the front line Ruben Amirim is a show more than ever this season he loves a versatile forward he likes to change the front line up and Bumo can play anywhere across the front three Kuhn you can play two positions across the front three that could be a really dynamic front three that you could play together with Benjamin Zesko settling into Premier League life, being a little bit younger and maybe needing a little bit more time, being more of a prospect and with the likes of Joshua Zerksy seeking a move away.

38:51I mean, I hope Joshua Zerksy comes in and absolutely smashes it and I think he's way better than people give him credit for and I do think there's untapped potential there with Zerksy, but I just don't think I reinfancies him. Semenyo's on the table in January, okay the deal might be difficult to do, but do it, but do it, do it you know it might be difficult to stretch yourself to to you know the really nice bed you want but you're going to thank yourself you're going to thank yourself you're going to thank yourself in a few months when you're having good night's sleep and I think United need to think about it that way with that with with the budget that we've got for the summer we do need to go heavy on the midfield and I completely understand that but also you've got to back Ruben Amarin throughout the season and if an opportunity arises like that sometimes you just can't say no to it so let's let's let's see what happens with it what what I would say is I don't expect United to do it I think Semenya will end up at Liverpool and you know come back to this I think Semenya will end up at Liverpool I don't expect United to go and do it but I think a top top ambitious club would be really looking to try and find a way to do that deal and people say but we need to spend the money on the midfield we need to spend the money on the midfield we do need to spend the money on the midfield but none of our midfield targets are available till the summer potentially Jao Gomez and I would look to do that deal in January as well I really would he'd be a player I'd be open to bringing in January but if the top top midfield target isn't available to the summer look we were already budgeting for a forward player anyway next season it's been reported that United want to bring in somebody to add a bit of depth for Benjamin Sesko and give him a bit of a helping hand.

40:32For me, it's just taking your budget for an extra striker and spending it on a versatile type forward. Joshua Zerkesy right now is our backup to Benjamin Sesko, yeah? Or Cunha is our backup to Benjamin Sesko. Cunha and Joshua Zerkesy both can play as a 10. And some would say are better as a 10. I think Zerkesy actually is better as a 9, to be honest with you but as like a false nine type nine but both of them can play as a ten and they're Ruben Amrum backups to Sesco currently slash if not sometimes Cunha's played ahead of Sesco a lot what if Semenyo is a number ten slash winger who can play up front as well and can play across the fold line if it was me I'd be looking to bring him in just because of how good he is and using the budget of our second striker to go alongside Sesco is the money to bring in Semenyo but let me know what you think I've just seen the comment in here from King Walker we can't let Semenyo go to our rivals and I agree I agree Terry says Beth has a wonderful imagination but Anderson is going to Newcastle do you genuinely think Anderson in the summer he goes to Newcastle over United if they both put the same offer together do you think he picks Newcastle over United in the summer I know that it's his boyhood club and that is a pull that kind of brings you back there but United is the biggest club in England and also I think has more chance of being in European football than Newcastle next season and I might be wrong and I might look absolutely silly come the end of the season but do you genuinely think Newcastle beat us in a race to Ellie Anderson?

42:15I don't think so, you know but I might be wrong on that I mean it'd be about time that Newcastle did beat us to something I mean Mbumo, United Sesco, United Cunha, United All three players Newcastle looked at And they ended up coming to Manchester United in the summer So Elliot Anderson's a bit different Because he has connections to the club But I think if United and Newcastle put the same offer together for Anderson And we had European football and they didn't I think he's coming to Manchester United I'm going to be so honest also remember to everyone to click the link in the description for your Christmas jumper on the lead up to Christmas nearly in December now it's got it's fine so quickly but I love the Christmas countdown and make sure you get your United stand Christmas jumper with the link in the description there as well a couple more things to bring in so Senny Lamans picked up a clean sheet on his international debut for Belgium in their World Cup qualifiers six games unbeaten since his Manchester United debut so round of applause for Sonny Lamans he has changed our lives still early days so again like I said not gonna start calling him smichel in disguise he would do that I may have sung that chant at Old Trafford I'm not gonna lie to you but he's exciting and it's something to put a smile on your face you know when United we've dealt with poor goalkeepers in Andre Narner in Bindir for the past few years, having Sidney Lamondsen, who is a prospect that could be our keeper for the next decade, doing really well, just enjoy the moment.

43:50And I don't want to put too much pressure on him because it's still his early days. Six games is nothing in the grand scheme of things, but it's nice to see. And do you know what else is nice to see? Players getting moves to United and it actually being a positive for them. Because how many times have Manchester United as a football club been known as the club where players' careers come to die. They call it a graveyard for careers. Really good up-and-coming talents. If you sign for United, they end up falling off a cliff. But that's starting to change now. Seniel Armens comes to Manchester United and he's getting his debut for Belgium.

44:26And I know Courtois' injury has a helping hand, but spotlights on him. People are talking about him as one of the better keepers in the league already. Six games unbeaten. And of course, he's got to do it himself. like I'm not taking credit but United gives you a spotlight and he's earned that through playing well to get them unbeaten games together for United to pull off them saves to have the positive start to his Manchester United career that he's had himself should take responsibility for that because he's put the work in and Manchester United have helped him with that but the spotlight's been on him and he's rose to the occasion so I like the fact that that's a player that's benefiting positively from joining Manchester United.

45:07Brian Mbumo, player of the month. And I know he already had recognition at Brentford, but I really do think he's kind of... Hanging out at the pool is great.

Shot off even further since he's been playing really well for Manchester United because this isn't new from Brian Mbimo.

45:52He scored 20 goals last season. Let that sink in. But he's now doing the business for United and he's getting even more recognition than he already did. So it's nice to see us recruiting players and them getting recognition and them kind of being propelled a little bit. Lenny Yoro, I think, is another one that's benefited from that. De Ligt. De Ligt is now, you know, he played for the Netherlands. And De Ligt's always, always been in and out of the Netherlands squad. But he had a bit of a rocky road with the Netherlands squad, especially since Ronald Koeman came in. And he started with Van Dijk.

46:25He had a brilliant game. His numbers were off the charts. So it's good to see our players doing well for the international teams and for Manchester United benefiting them in that way. We have Tom McBride in with a super chat. Says, if we added£40 million to the£65 million, we would pay for Semenyo. We could go for a midfielder like Valverde. We don't need Semenyo and we won't go for him. Tom, you are entitled to your opinion. Don't think United have a chance of getting Valverde, but I love your enthusiasm. I mean I would love Val Verde at United I've not even thought of that because I just I didn't see him as gettable I love his character I love his attributes I would love Val Verde at United but I just don't see United getting Val Verde out of Real Madrid I'm going to be so honest I love your enthusiasm you know shoot shoot the stars in land on the moon but I just don't see it to be to be quite honest and it's still very very very very expensive there over just over 100 million you'd have to spend but he's 27 Valverde so still you know still a decent age 28 in the summer but it's not as if he's you know that 24 25 age range where you don't really mind paying over 100 million for but yeah it's an interesting comment Tom and thank you for contributing.

47:46But like Seska Lover said, Valverde will retire at Madrid. I can see that happening as well. A little bit on Ruben Amirim to bring in as well. So Nathan Salt's article is really interesting actually. A bit on Shea Lacey first and foremost though. Shea Lacey is the clear frontrunner to make his first team debut between now and January. While Jack Fletcher, who Amirim likes a lot, Lacey is understood to have been very close to making the bench for the Sunderland home game before falling one place short. So, looks like Shea Lacey is the closest player to make his debut for Manchester United from the academy.

48:24So, he's the frontrunner to make his first team debut between now and the January, while Jack Fletcher is also kind of in and around it as well. He was in the squad to travel down to Spurs, I think, because Cobby Mane was injured. I'm pretty much correcting that. And he's an exciting talent as well. Jack Fletcher really is an exciting talent. Shea Lacey is an exciting talent. And apparently for Sunderland, he only fell one play short. So that's exciting as well. Shea Lacey, I think, would have made his debut way earlier for Manchester United if he hadn't been played with injury issues. So I just hope he can stay injury free because he's such an exciting talent.

49:01He really is. He's Phil Foden-esque. And I know I shouldn't say that because Phil Foden's from the blue side of Manchester. But do you know that once in a blue moon, another City pun, once in a blue moon kind of talents that is just that little bit extra. They've got that little bit extra bit of special about him, that bit of extra sparkle. That's what Shea Lacey is like. The way he can run with a ball and it just is stuck to his foot. The way he can thread passes through the eye of a needle. His creativity, his technical ability on the ball primarily plays as a number 10 but can play off the right, can play across the front line.

49:35and I think with Mbumo and Ahmad potentially leaving for AFCON this could be a real opportunity Sesko being injured we don't know when he's back this could be a real opportunity for Shea Lacey to potentially get some minutes off the bench so yeah let's see what happens with that but he's definitely an exciting prospect and I hope we see him get a few minutes but again you don't want to rush anybody in do you but yeah it's one to watch out for for sure and then just a little on Ruben Amorim as well so which bit did I want to read out here sorry guys I'm just getting up okay here we go Ruben Amorim is very direct but he's easy to deal with and often likes to exchange a joke or two with the regulars who speak to him each week earlier on he was guilty from the club point of view of being too honest for example calling his side the worst in Manchester United's history he's slightly more careful now but understands the job we do and plenty of other Premier League's managers can be far more hostile so Ruben Amorim he's a learner driver he's a learner driver Ruben Amorim and he's a young manager coming into the Premier League in one of if not the biggest clubs in the world he had some learning to do himself he learned about Casemiro and how to manage him he's come through it he's learned about how to speak to players in his squad that play for Manchester United, he's come through it.

51:02He's got the dressing room behind him. And I don't think there's anything wrong with a manager being honest and open with his squad. I think actually it's respectable. And I know he's got a lot of passion. And I mean, there was a report out that he, the incident where he smashed the TV and potentially even shed a tear. That was the report. Players actually gained a lot of respect for him out of that because he could see how much he cared. and when you're when you've got a manager type player relationship the most motivating thing for you as a player is to see that your manager kind of cares the same way that you care about the team and also your development as well and and when Amorim maybe sometimes goes a bit too far is a bit emotional it comes out of a place of care whenever you see extreme emotions in life it's because that person is passionate about it or cares about it whenever you just kind of what would you rather a manager be like you did this this this this this but this this and this and it's just going at you but also in a way you'll get the same back when you do well you'll get all the praise you'll get all the love you'll get it arm around the shoulder And I think Amarim kind of, he can be that player.

52:21I don't think he's ever going to bring a player in after a game and go absolutely in on them straight after a game because he likes not to speak to the players because that can happen because he's overly emotional. But after the game, in the meeting, he's where he kind of unleashes. And he's done it before. He went in on Garnaccio, told him to find a new club. Good luck finding one of them. He said he wasn't the same player that he had at Sporting Lisbon and he thinks he's kind of lost his way a little bit. so he can still be harsh on players but he doesn't always do it straight after the game and I think when you're a player you just want your manager to care and I think Amram at least does that and if you didn't have any sort of opinion then you'd be like what are we all here for what are we doing why aren't you even bothered so he's got the Manchester United job because of all of his attributes that help him be the best possible man manager and I think that's where Ruben Amram really has has it kind of has it understood now of how he needs to manage the Manchester United squad and he has it on lock a little bit I think it's a really strong part of his management his ability to manage his ability to weed out the egos and his ability to keep the squad harmony as well as doing that because when you

53:39do what Ruben Amarim's done which is get rid of the star boy in Alejandro Garnaccio. I'm not kind of the person that says star boy, but that's what everyone uses now. He got rid of the star boy from the academy. You know, we had Viva Garnaccio and he was starting every single week under Erickson Haag. He got rid of Rashford, who has been at the club since he, I know, I can't even remember what age he joined, but it was early days. I think it was like six years old. and the fans were growing a little bit tired of his seemingly lack of passion for the club still and his lack of work rate but the fans had a soft spot for because he'd come through the academy because the amount of goals he scored, the amount of times where he's carried Manchester United on his back, the moments that he's brought to the club.

54:33to do that and not lose the dressing room he's done very very well and if anything the dressing room has got a lot stronger even with the Casemiro thing that would have ruffled the dressing room a little bit Casemiro going below Toby Collier in the pecking order which Amram admitted himself but he's gained the respect from the dressing room by bringing him back to the forefront he's part of the senior leadership team and his first name on the team sheet now. And he's earned that respect from the dressing room because at first he was... Casemiro, don't fancy him at all. But because he's trained really well, because his mentality is top-notch and because he's played well, he's now my go-to guy.

55:16And you earn respect when you handle things in the right way. Erickson Haag lost the dressing room because he tried to weed out certain personalities, but the players didn't take to the way he did it. And that's how he ended up losing the dressing room. hanging out at the pool is great relaxing and playing vegas style games on my phone at the same time drink in one hand and a blackjack in the other it's all at spin quest over a thousand games including your favorite slots and table games be cool with this summer special new players get 30 coin packs for 10 at spinquest.com spin quest is a free to play social casino Void where prohibited.

Reuben Amarim lets him have a bit of freedom, and he has handled things in the right way. I always say it's not what you say, it's how you say it. And I think Reuben Amarim has handled certain decisions with poise, and handled them with respect, and handled them with an element of, I'm the boss still. respect but I'm the boss you're not the boss of Man United you're not the boss of Manchester United I'm the boss and while I'm here what I say will go however all of you are allowed your input all of you are grown men that's been put out there all of you will be treated with respect and if you work hard for me I'll work hard for you if you give me everything I'll give you more and I think that's kind of the message that Amram's put across to his squad so yeah it's I like the way that he's he's manoeuvred the squad to make it a better atmosphere to he's more of a tight-knit group and there's been multiple things he's changed to allow that to happen and and he also helped as well so yeah interesting to kind of get an inside scoop on that and then just a little bit more on Semenyo that I missed at the start of the show so this is from Nathan Saltz, a different journalist, it was the thing that we brought in at the start the show was from the athletic anton simeno is one to watch even if liverpool are viewed as front runners in that particular pursuit and expect united to be watching mark's gay situation with interest given his contract will be with six months from expiring a center back is on the agenda with limited progress made on extending harry mcguire's deal which expires in the summer he will be free to sign a pre-contract agreement with clubs abroad in around six weeks time as things stand so from Nathan Salt there, Anthony Semenyo is one to watch even if Liverpool are front runners, I can assume it's because of the prior relationship we've built with Semenyo through looking at him last year and last season not last year this year and last season and then Mark Gahey that is music to my ears coming out from Nathan Salt so again even though Liverpool are expected to be front runners keep an eye on the Mark Gahey situation we've scouted him previously and we've made limited progress on extending Maguire's deal it looks like Harry Maguire could be heading out of Manchester United and I've always said if he does go which as much as I love Harry I don't think would be the worst thing in the world you've got to replace him with a top top player because I've always said this I'd be open to keeping Harry Maguire if you know we weren't going to go and splash on a top centre back but and he took a wage cut to be that you know senior figure in the dressing room plays plays one game a week here and there but being that leader and being that experience you can rely upon.

59:05But if you let Maguire go on a free and then you sign Mark Gay on a free, that is brilliant, brilliant business. And that's exactly the type of business United should be doing because Maguire's had his best now and he's moving past his best and his contract's expiring. Mark Gay's on a free. He brings the leadership that you're losing out on with Maguire because of his captaincy and experience at Crystal Palace. He's playing for England, so he's played at the top level of international football as well. he's going to be England's starter. He's literally replaced Harry Maguire in the England team.

59:38So to replace Harry Maguire in the United team, that would be, you're moving on with the times, you're taking that step up, you're finding your replacement. And he's absolutely class and he's exactly the type of player we need. So, and he's played in a back three as well. He's played in the back three really well under Glasner. So I really would love to go and get Mark Gaye. And if we could get that deal done, it would save us a bit of money because it's a free transfer and you're getting a top, top, top centre-back for an amazing deal and it frees you up some money to spend elsewhere, could that money go on a Semenyo?

1:00:09Could that money go on a better midfielder? And I'm excited that Nathan Salt's talking about keeping an eye on Semenyo and Mark Gahey because they're two Premier League proven players that would come into this team and make a huge difference. And Mark Gahey absolutely would be somebody that comes in. and I mean could you imagine Mark Gay and DeLitt playing together I'd love it I'd absolutely love it but anyway smash a like on the video we need midfield I know midfield midfield midfield I know we need midfield guys we're gonna go for two midfielders but we can't just draw the line at midfield we need two midfielders left side is centre back left wing back potentially another forward potentially backup goalkeeper but as I said on the show yesterday could Harry Armas come and compete for that left wing back spot he's doing super well at Sheffield Wednesday you get Mark Gay on a free that's kind of I know you're gonna have to give him a signed on fee and a decent contract but still it's a way lower face that kind of takes splashing out big money on a left left side of centre back off the off the agenda and you've got more money to play with plus there'll be sales Rashford's wage will be going off the books 300 grand a week Bruno might go to Saudi we would get money in from there and that's 300 grand a week off the books.

1:01:26Castamira looks like he's going to be going 300 grand off a week off the books could even be more I think Castamira and Bruno on 350. I would have to absolutely clarify with the Champions League sort of condition it drops a little bit but and then you've got Harry Maguire who's on about 190k a week as well so the wage bill will be cut massively. Bruno might stay he's not made a decision on his future yet but if he does go money's coming in who knows what's going to happen with if he goes money's coming in of pure profit if Rashford goes which he will it's pure profit again so we'll make some money in the summer we will whether who is it from I don't know I'd like it not to be from Manu ideally but we will make some money in the summer we will have money to spend so don't worry we're going to spend on two midfielders I've just twisted my arm with my mic we're going to spend on two midfielders but we've got to look at other options as well it's not just the midfield there's other areas of this team that need improving for sure but anyway guys thank you very much for watching thank you very much for getting involved all of the comments uh a couple people they're saying i'm selling it to them i hope so sancho's wage gone yeah sancho's wage gone i mean i know villa are contributing towards it but they're not playing the full whack he's on 350 grand a week i mean 350 grand a week here 300 grand a week there 300 grand a week there 200 grand a week there like think about how much that is i'm actually going to before i leave the show i'm just going to quickly leave you on this calculator out oh god watch me get this wrong now so 300 i'm just going to do a basis of 300 grand a week yeah times bruno sancho casemiro rashford so times four i mean i don't need a calculator for this what's that coming out at so that's coming out at 12 am i one two three four five that's coming that's coming out at 1.2 million 1.2 million a week we could be saving on wages and then if you had another 200 grand a week on that from harry mcguire you know you're looking at around there like 1.4 million you could be saving weekly from wages and if you add that over the course of a year times 52 i don't think so i've just times that by 52 and it's 62.4 million i'm pretty sure don't don't quote me on it like that's a lot of money that's a player that's literally a fee for a really good player there so anyway i'm hoping my maths is right i'm hoping it's not botched there's a lot of zeros am i right there with 64 million someone will let me know mount is 250k sesco lover says yeah there's a lot of there's a lot of big wages a lot of big wages in this squad but anyway i'll leave you with that something to think about the wage is being cut you might not think about it because it's just a wage but that money really does add up and that gives us a massive helping hand when it comes to ffp and financial fair play as well anyway thank you everyone for watching have a lovely rest of your wednesday and i will see you on the next one
