For the ones who get it done. So what are we talking about on the show this morning? We're going to be talking about this big Fabrizio Romano update from about Tonali.

1:05We're going to be talking about Mason Mount saying that this team can win the Premier League. We're also going to be talking about Manu's wages and whether they're too much, 150 grand a week. Rashford potentially being used as a swap deal. Palacios bid coming out of Germany, who is Palacios. Some of you might not realise who he is. And a fascinating bit of news around Michael Carrick's approach compared to Ruben Amarin. And if we hit a couple of thousand likes, I might go and do a little bit of keepy ups for you behind me. You might get a bit of that as well. But how are we all doing this morning?

1:41Hope you're doing very well. And 150k is kind of fire for Maynews, it's Kartik. I think in relation to Maynews, I think in relation to Maynews wage, the club messed it up, is my opinion. 150 grand a week doesn't bother me too much. But ultimately, we sat on his contract for two years when he wasn't really playing. Now he's playing well. He gets the contract he wants. United could have got that a lot cheaper if they'd just agreed to deal with him before. But they sat on it themselves. So I think that's all on them, really, isn't it? Anyway, let's start off with this story about Tonali. Good boost for Manchester United.

2:22I was actually falling asleep watching the football sewage last night. Football Heritage, PSG against Bayern, football sewage, Arsenal against Atletico. It was a load of crap. But during that, the highlight of it was the guy doing the sandwiches at half time and also probably my stream not working and also Romano's drop in relation to Tonali. So he says Sandro Tonali is not planning to return to Italy this summer, despite reports that he's ready to stay in the Premier League. Tonali is on top Premier League club shortlist and he's keen on staying in England at the highest level. Movements soon about his future.

3:01Remember what I said to you a couple of days ago that I got told about keep an eye on Tonali and it will come out in the next week or so. Literally comes out 48 hours later. So, yeah, very, very good news around that. I think that with regards to Tonali, it does go on to say as well that, I mean, look, the big boost is that this Italian return isn't looking very likely. It goes on to say that Manchester United are waiting to understand how expensive Tonali's total package is going to be. They believe, as they did one year ago when they were interested in him, that it could be too expensive. So it could be complicated.

3:40A move to Italy is considered impossible. He'll be happy to stay in the Premier League. Also goes on to say that he will stay in the Premier League and there's absolutely no chance of a move back to Serie A because of Newcastle's huge valuation of somewhere between£90 and£110 million. He wants to stay at the top level and he's happy to stay in the Premier League. Both Man United and Man City are monitoring him closely. United showed interest last year but found him too expensive and they're still assessing whether to pursue a deal depending on Newcastle's demands. Arsenal have some interest but no active operation yet.

4:18Tenali is set to be one of the summer's key summer signings and a player certainly to watch, which is what I said to you a couple of days ago. It's almost like we have good info, isn't it? But look, I mean, Chumini is difficult but not impossible. Anderson is difficult but not impossible. Tenali has to be in there with those three. I think Bruno Gomérez is gone now. I think you have to rule out Bruno Gomérez because we're just not going to go there, are we? Ridiculously because of age, but there we go. So I think you've got Tenali, Anderson, Chiamini. There's not really an excuse for Manchester United to not get one of those three players.

4:53Now, obviously, you're not going to get two of them and there is a possibility that we don't get any, but I think for where we want to be, and I'll keep saying this, the player we want to replace in Casemiro, I think that we have to get one of those deals done. And I think also, I was speaking to somebody yesterday and we've spoken about it ourselves. Are Manchester United trying not to do this deal because they're worried about the gambling, right? Now, I think it's not necessarily a bad idea to say, well, it's a lot of money to spend. It's a gamble to spend£100 million on a player who might have a future gambling issue.

5:31But my answer to that is, well, why be so risk averse? Football is about taking risks. And it's not like nobody wants Tonali and we're the only player. You know, sometimes you get a player that's caused trouble everywhere they've been. And, you know, Sam Allardyce used to do this a lot at Bolton. He'll take a chance on them and that chance ends up, you know, being good. We're not talking about Tonali that nobody wants. we're talking about Tonali that Newcastle would love to keep. We're talking about Tonali that Man City would like. We're talking about Tonali that Arsenal would like. So why Man United going, oh, the gambling thing?

6:10I don't think that's actually a valid point at all. I really, really don't. And I know some people do. And some people say, well, we had the gambling issue in the past. But we're not the only auction in the shop. You know, there are other people looking to buy him. So I just think it's a bit of a bit of a cop out for me. And I think that he is the right sort of player to go to. Where do you think he's going to go, Mark? I actually think he's going to go to. I think he's going to go to Arsenal. Yeah.

6:45I mean, you can sort of. Yeah, I think he'll go to Arsenal. I think he nearly went to.

6:55he nearly went to Arsenal well there was Arsenal interest in the January transfer window I think Arsenal probably do need another midfielder despite having Ryzen's of a Mendy and I think that's where he'll end up going and that would be a very ambitious play by Arsenal I mean look what I do not think is acceptable this summer is that Anderson goes to Man City Tonali goes to Arsenal Chouamini stays at Real Madrid and we signed the Labour. I think that is... I think that would be criminal in many ways. So I think that for me is something that I would certainly... As I say, I think United have got to get Tenali, Anderson or Cermini.

7:40The only other player I would go for is Bruno Gameraes, which we're not going to do. We've got to get one of those three players. But it is an encouraging update because it does mean that he is going to stay in the Premier League. So if you're tuning in a little bit late, where were you at 10 o 'clock? But Romano basically saying that Tonali wants to stay at the top level in the Premier League next season. So he's going to be a Premier League player next year. Absolutely going to be a Premier League player next year. Real Madrid are not looking at Tonali. They're looking at different players like Rodri and Enzo Fernandes.

8:09And the midfield market, I mean, look, let's add Enzo Fernandes in there. He's not a player that we're going to go for, but he is a player that Man City or Real Madrid might go for. So it's another midfielder in the ring that we won't go for, but will leave a player that we want. Like Man City can't buy Enzo Fernandes, Tonali, Anderson. They won't buy three. So there are enough midfielders in that, top quality midfielders for Man United to get one. And as I say, Fabrizio Romano saying keep an eye on Tonali for Manchester United. And also saying that he'll stay in the Premier League. So I think you've got to be all over that.

8:48If we get 2 ,000 likes this morning, I will do some keep-ups. Yes. So, yes, I'll have a go in the background. There should be a ball there. Is it there to my left-hand side? Is it? Maybe it's hidden. I'm just waiting for it to come through. It will come through on my screen in a minute. There we go. Make sure you smash a like in the garden again. Hope you're doing very well. still 10 10 a.m according to your graphic i don't know i don't know why we uh keep the time on actually i really don't uh anyway we've got a couple of super chats coming in here daniel thompson as always says hope you're all doing well at nice garden really positive update about tonali and it's a golden opportunity we must do everything to get him it's like he's saying come and get me don't waste 70 million on the labor you'd walk towards tonali thank you daniel good morning and thank you very much for your super chat and planet jupiter has given us a super chat this morning as well um conrad says would you take would you i like this nice nice cup of coffee sun on my back talking to you good people maybe we should do this more often um would you take tonali and wharton says conrad um i would i take tonali and water i mean i'd be happy with i do i i think whatever your combination is we need three um it's not about greed it's about need um very david brent it's not about greed it's about need um it's not about greed it's about need because whatever your two are let's say you get tonali and wharton let's say you get tonali and anderson next season first two games of the season premier league you start with mainu and tonali and anderson's on the bench then mainu's you know gets a bit tired so anderson comes on but tonali says i'm tired who comes on I've seen your first two games, let alone injuries, drop of form and calendar.

10:42If you have three midfielders and you start two of them, you can only sub one of them. And if you get one injury, you can't sub any of them. So it's a numbers game. It's not about would you take three crap midfielders and two good midfielders. We need three midfielders. It's absolutely nailed on. Shane says, good morning, Mark and the United Stand. Love the back garden shows. Would you rather Anderson go to City and Tonali come to us, vice versa? Ooh, I mean, look, we've got lots of news to get into, but it's a very good question. I would say that, I would say that, would I take Tonali? So basically, one of Tonali and Anderson goes to us and one goes to them.

11:22I would take Tonali at Man United and they can have Anderson. In the long term, it might be a bad decision, but in the short term, I think it's the right decision. We need a player for now. Man City can afford to take Anderson in and develop him because they will be in the Champions League next year. We take Anderson in and it takes him a time to develop or he flops and we're not in Europe next year. We're in trouble. You take Tonali in, he'll hit the ground running, got a better chance of being in Europe next season. I think United, you know, nothing in life is ever obvious. And I think United need an element of short term and an element of long term.

12:03And my most essential requirement for next season is Champions League football. I'm almost at the point where I think next season is such a gamble on the manager, on the transfers, on what the league's going to be like. Things out of our hand. We don't know how good Chelsea will be, Liverpool will be, Newcastle. They could all bounce back next year and be better than us. So there's so many permutations for next season that I think that I'm almost at a point where if somebody said you can take fourth place next season and a good Champions League run, I take it. Now, some people would say that that's very low standards, but hold on a minute.

12:37The standards of the last 13 years for United, fourth place and a good run in the Champions League. Well, we won the Carabao Cup in the past. We won the FA Cup in the past. I think it's not about stability. It's about, it's not stability. It's progress. And I think progress next season is to be back in the Champions League and stay there and then build again. And I know that that's horrible in a way to say, well, don't you want to win the Premier League? I mean, that's a dream. That's a pipe dream. I saw Mason Mount and his interview today. It was making me laugh, actually. I'll bring this in because it's topical.

13:12So Mason Mount's done an interview and he's basically said, yeah, he wants Carrick to get the job. What a bloody surprise. I mean, can I just say any player that wants Carrick to stay, can we just understand the modern football player? It's self-preservation. They want to come and have a sit in my garden and sit next to him and we can have a chat, Mason. or any other player, it must be good goal bridge interviews. There's plenty of space on the bench. But it's a good idea for a show, get Ricky down. But I think that the issue I have, that is a good idea for a show. But the point I'm making is every Man United player that sits there and says, I want Michael Carrick to get the job, I mean, it's self-preservation, isn't it?

13:52If you're at work tomorrow and you get interviewed about your boss, unless you've got something else lined up, What are you going to say? I don't think they're very good, actually. You're fired. You know, it's self-preservation. Ultimately, it's self-preservation. But he also went on to say that he wants to win the Premier League and he thinks we can with this group. He's talking at his arse. I mean, you know, occasionally you do get good interviews with players, but most of the time it's PR crap. I mean, Mason Mount says we can win the Premier League with this group. mate we're paying so now we're paying you a quarter of a million pounds a week to be a pundit and not a very good pundit because for three years he hardly ever bloody plays pay him a million pounds a month we paid 55 million pounds he's hardly played for three years and now we're paying him to be a crap pundit man united can win the premier league with this group i mean just there's a time and a place for it mate you know and just keep your mouth shut and focus on playing football that's what we pay you to do and that's what we'd like you to do because i think Mason Mouton as a footballer could still be quite useful for us if he can actually stay fit.

14:59I think that's the big problem there. Gabrielle says, I am watching you for years. You are the best. I'm visiting Old Trafford for the first time on Sunday from Cyprus. I wish I can celebrate a win. I think you will be celebrating a win. I do. I think we will win on Sunday. Preview later on tonight, I think we'll be celebrating a win. I'm very confident that we are going to do Liverpool home and away for the first time since 2015-16 season. So 10 years. It's 10 years since we beat Liverpool home and away. And that's what Sunday is. Tony, sorry, Tonali, Belayba, Garner. I don't want Belayba, Liam.

15:34Look, Tonali, Belayba, Garner or Tonali and Garner. Yes, I'll take Belayba, but only because I want three midfielders. Tonali, Garner and Scott would be our target, says Rajaf. Thank you very much for that. I appreciate you super chaps that are coming in. Thank you so much. How are we doing for likes? I'm worried about my keep-ups. We're on 700 likes. So keep sharing the video and smash a like on the video. If we get 2 ,000 likes, I will do some keep-ups. Yesterday, I went down the slide. The Labour is going to be fine at Man United, says G-Man. It's okay. G-Man says the Labour is going to be fine at Man United.

16:09We can all piss off and go and enjoy the sun, Tom, because G-Man says the Labour is going to be fine. I'll tell you what, G-Man, let's spend 90 on it. If you say it's going to be fine, let's spend a fucking hundred. Let's split the difference. I mean, come on. Come on. Okay. A couple of bits I want to just bring in. I've got a very interesting bit I want to talk about in relation to Maynoo's wage, but also Carrick. I've got an interesting thing. There's an article in The Athletic this morning about Carrick, which actually adds nothing. It's a bit of a slow sports news day, but if you haven't read any of that stuff, it's quite a good article.

16:47It just encompasses everything, style of play, what the players think, who's available. There's nothing we haven't discussed on a daily basis, but it was quite an interesting article because it spoke about style of play. And there was something in there that I just didn't, I wanted to know. I wanted to know, I have a theory with Carrick that he is very good in relation to getting results, but it is very, if I was on the board, we're back in the meeting room, if I was on the board, I would say to Wilcox and Barada and Sir Jim, I think these results have the trademarks and hallmarks of interim football.

17:26I think this is classic interim football, where you've got a manager who has come in, put his arm around all the players, focused on his senior players and just chased results. and he's bloody got them and it's brilliant and well done to him. But I genuinely don't think there's much beyond these results and I don't think they're very sustainable. I also think when you look at it, under Ruben Amorim, and I'm not saying we should have kept him, but you can't argue with this. Under Ruben Amorim, we played possession football, high intensity, and were focused on scoring more goals. last summer Wilcox and co sold us we were spending money this year on scoring more goals we needed to score more goals and in the last 13 games that Amrim had he was averaging 2.15 goals per game and Ahmad Mbwemo and Kunya were playing well so we were averaging scoring in the Premier League 2.15 goals per game in Amrim's last 13 games and Ahmad and Mbwemo and Kunye were playing well.

18:39We weren't winning every week, though. We weren't winning every week. You know, we weren't. He didn't get the sack for that, by the way. He got the sack for falling out with Wilcox. But under Ruben Amrion, there was definitely a focus on creating more chances, which we were, having more possession, which we were, and playing higher up the pitch, which we were. Unfortunately, we couldn't turn those goals and games into enough wins. We didn't win enough games. But the vision was getting the best out of our attackers, scoring more goals and playing high-intensity football, which we were on the pathway to doing.

19:10I don't think anybody can deny with that, but the results weren't there. Under Michael Carrick, we are averaging 1.8 goals per game instead of 2.15. Here's golf legend John Daly.

In the last 13 games, we're averaging 1.8 goals per game compared to 2.15.

20:26So there's a distinctive drop-off in the amount of goals we're scoring and the amount of chances we're creating. And whereas I think the previous manager was focused on attack, intensity, and chance creation, I think Carrick and his coaches are focused on results, sitting back, counterattacking.

20:47so what is the vision in the future these are stats these are stats we have dropped off on chance creation we have dropped on on possession and we have dropped off on goals scored per game and as part of that Embermo, Kunya and Ahmad have dropped off as well so what is the vision for next season because we are scoring goals we're still nearly scoring two goals a game 1.8 but most of those goals are coming from set pieces and Bruno Fernandes. Whereas under the previous manager, we were scoring more goals, creating more chances, and Ahmad, Embermo, and Kunya were playing better. And the emphasis was playing higher up the pitch and pressuring and scoring more chances, but we were conceding more.

21:31Whereas under Carrick, we're conceding less, we're sitting back with less possession and counterattacking. So my fear is that for all this Carrick propaganda, there's some very distinctive changes in what we're doing. I think at the start of the season, we wanted to score more goals and play more entertaining football and higher intensity football. But at the end of the season, we're getting better results, but we're playing more defensive football and our attackers aren't doing as well. And interestingly, under Ruben Amram this season, we scored four goals in the Premier League three times. Under Carrick, we haven't done it once.

22:05Carrick, in Amram's last 13 games, he scored four goals three times. under Carrick in his last 13 games, I haven't done it once. We've got three times, but four no times. So look, I think that you have to take, look, I'm not, in no way, shape or form am I saying bring Amarin back or we shouldn't have sacked Amarin without that ship has sailed. But what I am saying is there are some very distinctive facts and most of the time, pro Carrick people can only point at results. And that's all they can do, definitely. And it's interesting that the club's strategy in the summer was to buy attackers and make us more attacking, which we have done.

22:46And now, what I'm trying to say in a sentence is the club's philosophy has changed. Don't blame Carrick. Don't blame Amorim. At the start of the season, we want to score more goals and we want to be more intense. And at the end of the season, we're happy to park the bus. So, you know what I'm saying? Forget Carrick. Forget Amorim. forget arguing with each other, we're back in the boardroom again and saying, what are these Prats doing? At the start of the season, you told us the emphasis. I mean, I remember stuff coming out of the club about how this summer it's about buying players to score more goals.

23:24You know, they literally sort of came out and said, the midfield will be next year. This year, it's about scoring more goals. That's why we bought Sesco. That's why we bought Mbermo. That's why we bought Cunha. we've spent 200 million pounds on making us score more goals and that that was the vision last season i think we can all agree with that but now at the end of the season we've sort of ripped that up and gone well we don't know whether we're about that anymore because we're not scoring as as many goals we're not creating as many chances so yeah we are gonna we are gonna definitely look at the midfield this um this summer there's no doubt about it but there's also no doubt that the vision that was sold to us has been changed.

24:08But that's what the interim does. The interim gets your results. So will we go back to being more attacking next season? Well, it would have been nice to see that now, wouldn't it? Why can't we do that in the next few games? If I was Carrick, I'd be listening to these sort of stats and going, fucking hell, I'm getting exposed here. I'm creating less chances. I'm scoring less goals. My forwards aren't doing very well. I am getting good results, but people are sort of scrutinising me now and going, I'm a bit of a partner bus ollie manager, aren't I? For the next four games, I'd be like, front foot football.

24:40You know, front foot football. That's what I would do. But, you know, I'll have to wait and see. Will the overlap deal get you player interviews, says Mike? I'm not talking about stuff like that, mate. You'll have to wait and see. Do you think it's scary? All I'd say is watch this space. A little bit like I said about Tonali on Monday. Don't take your eyes off Tonali. don't take your eyes off in einstein on the next few weeks do you not think it's scary bruno had to tell the team before brentford we win every game that's our mentality from now so before they didn't want to do that says ellen oh can i just applause that absolutely brilliant absolutely i thought exactly the same thing you know while somebody was you know you know why some people were knocking one out to bruno's um chat about we have we win every game from now on i actually sat there.

25:28I wouldn't say I was angry. I just sat there going, what is this propaganda? Bruno's been here for years. Maguire's been here for years. Shaw's been here for years. Delo's been here for years. Most of that team has been here for years. And now we're doing chats about we need to win every game from now on. What about the last few years? You didn't need to do it then. You didn't need to do it then. I did think the same thing. Pritice says, hi, Mark. My opinion, and I was always hammering him in. I felt his only letdown was he didn't adapt his formation, but he was building something. We played attacking football.

26:01Our XG in shots was no more one. Yeah, and you were saying it's his protest. Look, I don't, I actually personally don't really give a damn about the hammering stuff anymore. I would have kept him till the end of the season. I think we would have got Champions League football. But I don't actually have a massive, you know, it's done. what I have a massive issue now with is what we do next Wilcox will be responsible for you know breaking up that conversation of course he will but the vision under Amarim at least I understood it the vision under Carrick I don't understand it at the moment and I think that is something that we would all agree with Wharton should be out of the Labour signing says Cameron I can't believe we've I can't believe we've written off Wharton I think it's a financial thing this whole Wharton's too similar to Maynou I think Belayba's similar to Maynou I think Belayba's as similar to Maynou as Wharton is to Maynou in the sense that they're not similar, none of them are Thank you very much to Gabrielle Okay, let's have a look how we're doing here because people are saying, we're on a thousand likes at the moment, if you want some keep-ups give me two thousand likes so if you've already liked it share the video and if you haven't liked it like the video and we might get there um okay let me maynew can you talk about maynew's wages mark i mean i was going to talk about a rashford swap deal but there's plenty of time so let's go with that um i so basically chris wheeler in the daily mail put an article out last night saying that maynew's wage is 150 grand a week and i thought you know i'll remember that for tomorrow morning um because we've spoken about that quite a lot and um i think it's a very interesting topic because basically it feels like main news contract's been discussed for about 18 months now and some people were like i wouldn't give him any more than 100k there was rumors that he wanted 200k um some people seem to think he's on 135k but the daily mail and chris wheeler are saying it's 150k um i my stance on it is that you can't really argue about mainu at 20 being on 150k a week when he plays and starts for man united and is in the england squad i don't think you can massively argue about it it might be slightly more than you'd like it to be but two things for me one, I'm not an accountant and I don't want to talk about wages and salary unless it's stupid.

28:46So it's not hypocritical to say you're not interested in wages and salary and then moan about the labor for 70 million because that's just stupid money. If you want to give Luke Shaw 300 grand a week, that's stupid money. But I'm not going to argue about marginals. Like Emberma for 65 million, I think we probably paid 5, 10 million more than we should have done. but it's not worth arguing about. And Manu at 150 grand a week, maybe it's 25 grand more than you'd want to pay, but it's not ridiculous. I mean, we're paying Mason Mount 250 grand a week. End of conversation. You know, you can't argue about Manu at 20 being on 150 grand a week when he's starting for Man United every game and he's in the England squad.

29:35You can't say that's too much money. When Mason Mount's on 250 grand a week and for sitting on his ass being a crap pundit, you know, selling Man United track suits. I mean, Mason Mount's only worth is to do the latest kit release, isn't it? Because he hardly ever bloody plays. Luke Shaw's on more than Manu. He's crap. Harry Maguire's still on more than Manu and he's 33. So I don't have a massive problem with it. And it's a big contract as well. It's a five-year deal. It's 2031. you want. So he's locked in to 150 grand a week till he's 25. And I'm sure there are targets in there. But if Maynou becomes one of the best midfielders in Europe, we'll still be paying him 150 grand a week for the next two or three years, in which case he's cheap.

30:24So you've got to look at the length of the contract. You've got to look at the age of the player and you've got to look at the context in relation to everybody else. It is a little bit steep, but it's not massively steep so i'm not really bothered about it at all i've seen a few people moaning about it but there's other players at united on more than that i mean look if he flops it's a lot of money and you're never selling you know you're when you pay somebody 150 grand a week at 20 years of age you're basically committing to them for the next five years and if he flops then that's an expensive flop but we didn't pay anything for him he's come through the youth team i i don't i don't see an issue with it at all i really i really don't i really don't and actually if you do see an issue if you do see an issue with it whose fault is it main news main news agents have played a blinder you know they've played the long game they've refused to sign crappy contracts um and now that he's in the team and doing well man you're not a need to get him to sign a contract and they're in the strong position aren't they because there are clubs that would want him um united had an opportunity over the last two years when he was on 20 grand a week i mean mainly he's been on 25 grand a week for two years mainly played in the euros final in england no it was when was the euros final well anyway whenever the two years ago the euros final he played it it wasn't in england um and he's been on 25 grand ever since man united could have got him after the euros final and said you've had a great debut season, you've played for England in the Euros final, there's 100 grand a week and a five-year deal.

32:03And he probably would have signed it. Now they're paying 150 grand a week because they didn't do the contract. So I think, you know, I think it's United's fault. Two years ago, he played in a Euros final and they've had him on 25 grand a week. They could have got him on a cheaper contract. They negotiated for too long. Patrick Lynch says, what is Euro's wage? 100k plus Maynou is a more established United player and older, he should be getting about 150k. Thank you very much, Patrick, for your super chat. And Shane says, if our board have a pair, they will appoint a manager like Emery, sign Tenali, someone like Stiller and Garner or Scott.

32:38Obviously, that wouldn't happen, says Shane B. Who is to say they did not have that speech before? I'm sure players will always play to win, says Zach. We was four to one for Champions League when Carrick came, says Robert McCormack. Why were those? I mean, I don't disagree with you, Robert, But why were the odds? I do think, look, okay, I'll take that right. Okay, maybe we were four to one, but everything I've said is still true. We're scoring less goals per game. We're creating less chances per game. We're parking the bus. We've got less possession. Carrick's possession average is now below 48%.

33:16Across 13 games, his average possession is below 48%. That's Thomas Frank. That's laughable. below 50 % for a top four club is laughable. So all these things are still factual. But the four to one to be in the Champions League when Carrick came in, we were joint fifth. We were joint fifth when he came in and fifth place is the Champions League. So why was he four to one? I don't really understand that. I don't really understand those odds. Look, I've said it before. I'm absolutely convinced Amarim would have got Champions League football because I knew fifth place would get Champions League football and Liverpool and Chelsea and Newcastle were shit in January.

34:03So look, how are Villa, you know, forget Man United for a moment. People laugh when I say I think we'd have got top five with Amriem. How are Villa in the top five still? Their whole midfield missed three months. McGinn, Kamara and Tillemans got injured in January and didn't come back till April and they're still in the top five. So I'd love to know what Villa's points accumulation has been since January. But anyway, look, we are where we are. We are where we are. With Carrick, United will be out of Europe next year, it says Neon. Well, not necessarily. That's the gamble, isn't it? You could play Carrick ball next year and still get top five because if Newcastle, Chelsea, Liverpool and Villa, if three of them are bad, you'll be in the top five by default won't you so it's absolutely lovely today it's so nice i just go about going to line on the grass our live stream um the glazers want a premium for their united chairs but won't pay a premium for top players uh reality speaks different says we desperately need hypocrisy at its peak thank you very much pal would you be third with amrim right now says ryan i don't know that i don't know that you could put his third i'd definitely put his fourth or fifth um i'd say under amram conservatively fifth um but

35:55download the moto casino app today what we need to remember is though we shouldn't have that argument we're in the champions league character's done a really good job we should celebrate that and we shouldn't live in the past because we can't change the past. And it's not about Amory more Carrick. It's about next season. That's what it's about. We shouldn't compare Carrick to Amory. I think a lot of people do this. They compare Carrick to Amory. That's the past. It's about whether Carrick should get the job now. And Amory is not a competitor for that. So that's where I'm living. I would take Luis Mraker and a left back and a midfielder, then Carrick and five players.

36:35Without an experienced manager, we will never succeed, says Amroad. look i'll take emery guirreola pochettino narblesman conte marco silver i'll take all those over carrick i've seen enough now um results are very good but stylistically i don't like it so there's a lot of managers i would take um over carrick because i'm worried about the drop-off Enchanters, the parking of the bus, the reliance on Bruno and Maguire and Casemiro, the amount of goals we're scoring. I think we are getting results playing crappy football, to be honest. And I personally would call out people like Rio Ferdinand, Anderson, Mason Mount, all these people who say that they want Carrick to get the job.

37:26I think it's because you like him and he's your mate. and I'm happy to have that conversation. You know, you sit there doing interviews and stuff like that. One of you is a YouTuber. Let's have the conversation because I think you're just saying it because he's your mate and I get that. But you can't put performance in there when factually the performances aren't good. Results, amazing, brilliant. He's got to be in the conversation. He's got to be interviewed. But in those interviews, I'd be scrutinizing factually why the goals per game has gone down, why the chances per game has gone down. Why would park in the bus at Old Trafford?

37:58why are we so reliant on casemiro and bruno and and maguire all these things next season are a big red flag big red flag how reliant do you think united are on casemiro a lot how reliant do you think they are on bruno a lot why doesn't a team just man mark bruno fernandez what are you going to do that why doesn't a team just put a man on mark bruno fernandez actually um spot on the football has got worse and this is my fear uh says ray carl brown look ray we're having a we're having a conversation here and in this conversation have i ever said i don't like michael carrick no i think he's i think he's i've never met him but he's probably a nice guy i think he's an incredible footballer and he's probably an intelligent footballer and he's probably an intelligent coach i like michael carrick but and the results are brilliant whenever i've never said they're not you know i like michael carrick and the results are good there's a reason to give him the job.

38:53But we've been crap for 13 years and I don't think we can afford to take a risk. I don't think we can afford to take an Ole Gunnar Solskjaer risk. And I'm not, you know, people say you can't ignore the results. You bloody well can. I bet Chelsea wished they'd ignored the results when Di Matteo won them the Champions League and the FA Cup because it was a very costly mistake giving him the job. And as I keep saying, Chelsea were getting knocked out of the Champions League. Chelsea were crap. He came in, he turned that tie around, he took them to the final, they won the final and they won the FA Cup.

39:28You know why they won the FA Cup in the Champions League? Because players like Drogba and John Terry and Frank Lampard, who were in their early 30s, got that team together and basically ran that team and got them results. And then the next season, it all went to shit. Well, hello, Terry, Drogba, Lampard, casimero bruno maguire good results interim i mean the evidence is out there look he might be the next vincent company he might be the next pep guardiola but he might be the next di mateo he might be the next dolly and that is a fair conversation and you can disagree with it i can't disagree with the people who say giving the job on results and you can't disagree with me saying things behind results are quite concerning it's a debate we don't have to make the decision but it's a debate um what about this swap deal okay okay loving the show this morning 7 000 legends watching 1 400 likes if you want the keep ups you better get liking and sharing the video um

40:43okay i've got another good comment coming here it was about uh glenn c says we were joint fit but every chance we had to get into the top five we failed to do it and couldn't win two on the spin uh apart from once yeah then fair point but you're sort of going backwards aren't you you are going backwards and we need to look forwards and amram's not competing with karik for the job so what are you saying you would give karik the job thoughts on simon jordan saying difference between karik's success and rosinia's failure is karik has experience in support of steve holland absolute horseshit asher um yeah absolutely horseshit um the difference you know look i don't mind simon jordan he does talk horseshit but he also talks sense i don't mind some of these points But the thing about opinions, it's a bit like arseholes.

41:36Everyone's got one. And, you know, Rizinha didn't fail at Chelsea because he didn't have Steve Holland. Michael Carrick has probably benefited from Steve Holland because he's taught him everything he knows from Southgate about parking the bus and just chasing results and not playing good football. So, yeah, has helped Carrick. But if you gave Steve Holland to Rizinha, he wouldn't have done any better. because he hasn't got Bruno Fernandes, Harry Maguire, Casemiro. There's nobody over 25 at Chelsea. They've got no experience. So it's not Steve Holland's not the magic bullet. Absolutely not. I've done that one.

42:16Thank you very much about Yoro's wage. A lot of people talking about Ange Postacoglu. I don't know the context. Please tell me. And if you're not at finish third, do you think Ineos take Carex as Ryan? I don't think it's about where we finish. I don't think it's about where we finish. I don't actually think winning more games should change the situation because Champions League football is the achievement. I think it's about how we play and how many chances we create and what style of football we play. I don't think it's about winning more games. It's about how you win those games. Tenhall got contract with result in FA Cup final, says Jason.

42:58context, please. And Constantine says, for the in-carrikers, do you think we can fight for top four next season with Carrick at the wheel? He's an interim manager at best. And Carnadave says, it's funny to see Michael Owen using your talking points now, talking about United strikers being a graveyard shift. They listen now, perhaps, says Carnadave. Or, well, I don't think they necessarily listen. It's just slow sports news, isn't it? I always feel like we talk about things and then three or four months later it actually makes its way through to certain uh outlets um united knicks as i'm going to the liverpool game on sunday i'm coming down from aberdeen the fergie connection if you know you know hope we win and guarantee champions league football well we're in the champions league anyway united nick we i think we'll have champions league football on saturday night because as long as brighton don't beat newcastle they can't catch us because they're 12 points behind sorry they're 11 points behind but there's only 12 to play for which means they've got to win every game and i can't see brighton winning at newcastle um i really can't uh rashford swap deal okay so italy italian reports linking us to liao again and also we've been linked to another midfielder so let's summarize these so italian reports linking us to liao again of ac Milan not for me um bit inconsistent not the right sort of winger I don't think we should be going for him but they're basically saying that there could be a bit of a swap deal there with Rashford going to AC Milan if it doesn't work out with Barcelona or Agate going there because George Mendez is doing something there I mean look the only interesting element of that is that we've been linked to Liao again but I don't see I don't see swap deals swap deals are hard deals uh if anyone can remember mkhitaryan and sanchez that's what they're hard deals to do um because you're dealing with if you buy one player you've got one agent you've got signing on fees you've got wages and then the deal's done so it's like it's like buying a house when there's no chain in it you know it's the seller and the buyer and that's difficult but when you're in a chain you've got another house and another house so it doubles up the work swap deals i mean when was the last swap deal they just don't happen that very that often and also palacios has been linked to us at leverkusen now bundesliga bridge i know well about the bundesliga um palacios is an argentinian midfielder for leverkusen they've had an okay season he's a you know he's a decent midfielder i mean he doesn't score goals so he's definitely more of a defensive midfielder but he's good on the ball he can carry the ball um he is a good player but again uh this is coming in from build in Germany that make United are interested in him.

45:39He's a good player, but I don't think United will be looking at him because he's 27 and he's 28 in October. So, look, I hope one day I'm going to be wrong about this, but I just do not... United have been comfortable with it being out there that they won't buy players over 26, and it's stupid. It's absolutely stupid, and it's destroyed Chelsea. and they don't buy players over 23. So at least ours is 26 and it's allowed us to buy Cunga and Mbermo. But we haven't bought a player over 26 under Ineos yet. And I don't think we're going to do it. And there's plenty of players out there, but I don't think we're going to do it.

46:23But Palacios is interesting. What I would say is I'd probably... If Palacios was available for under£40 million, I'd probably take him over Belaba. but Scott, Garner, Tyler Adams, I'd probably take all of these players over him, to be honest. So it's not even a good signing as far as I'm concerned. Rashford for Ganacho back, Marky, says Ryan. Yeah, you made your bed, you better lie in it. We're not taking Ganacho back. We've done very good money out of that one and yeah, we'll leave that. We're not going to hit the 2 ,000 likes. I'm not going to be doing kick-ups. you had your chance there's 7 000 people watching um leal swap maynew amram done that one mount carrick tonali alasios let's have a quick look what else is going on in your cell always nice to see that people forget people forget we are back at two o 'clock yes i'm undecided whether i'm doing the europa league forest against arsenal later i think i might do uh scott parker's left burnley i mean what do they expect i do i do i do sort of look i do that's football if you've not got involved with that's football that's our other youtube channel general football um i do some i do sometimes think about football and go scott parker gets burnley promoted they get relegated and he gets sacked and you sort of like go but we all would have relegated Burnley the minute they were promoted.

47:59I don't know, you know, maybe they look at Sunderland and Leeds and say we should have stayed up, but I think Sunderland and Leeds have got better players than Burnley.

48:15What else have we got going on? Ashley Young's announced his retirement from football. I genuinely thought he retired a couple of years ago. I certainly thought he retired in the summer.

48:39Sorry, I'm starting at something there. I'm back at Borla League on Monday, yeah. Looking forward to it. I'm looking at a bloody wind.

48:53What did you think about Arsenal? Oh, God. I've got a whole day ahead of me. I don't want to fall asleep. Don't make me tired. Basketball Crazy says, my name is Damali. Do you think Tanali is coming?

49:12I think Tanali is the guy. I think Tanali is the guy. But whether United do it or not, I don't know. Look, the reality is, when you look at what Chelsea are doing, Chelsea are going to interview Iriola, Conte, Marco Silva, Xavi Alonso. And they're going to go and buy experienced players. So Chelsea have finally figured it out. Manchester United, by the sounds of it, are still briefing that they can't get Tenatoli, they can't get Anderson, they can't get Tremini, and there's no managers out there. So please tell me, how are Chelsea going to buy experienced players and interview four or five experienced coaches.

49:56But in the same league, in the same country, in the same sport, Man United are making out, they can't get experienced players and there's no managers out there. And that, to me, is incredible because we're in the same league, in the same sport, in the same country. And Chelsea are going to interview four or five experienced coaches and United are saying there's no one out there. And this is what I mean about our fan base. I keep seeing people, well, let's give it to Carrick because there's no one out there. and I'm like, have you seen what Chelsea are doing? Have you seen what Real Madrid are doing?

50:27They are football clubs going after experienced coaches. I mean, look, you can't just say it. If I was the Man United board, obviously you'd be moving heaven and earth to try and get Enrique, but it looks like he's going to stay at PSG. I think we messed up on Tuchel. I don't understand how he signed a new contract to England and I still think if England don't do very well in the World Cup, you could still get him. you can't put a barrier on the World Cup by the way I was doing my schedule of watch-alongs for that's football and a lot of teams unless they get to the semi-final and the final will be out of the World Cup by the 10th of July well how long how long the holiday does a manager need so So your manager's going to be in by the end of July, no matter what.

51:17And so we shouldn't be ruling out managers who have been in the World Cup, is my point. So if I was Man United, I'm going after Pochettino, Nagelsmann. I'd still have a go at Tuchel. I'd definitely try and get Emery. I'd interview at Iriola. I mean, that was five straight away. And I'm sure I could think of a few more. So I think there's plenty of people Man United can go for. I just think they're putting in their own parameters. It's like filters, isn't it? You know, when you go on a, you know, you know, if I want a shirt, this Ralph Lauren shirt, right? But I go, I don't just put Ralph Lauren shirts in.

51:53I go, I want a 100 % cotton, medium, lightweight, turquoise, short sleeve that can get delivered tomorrow. see i'm not just getting a shirt anymore am i i'm going i'm filtering it out so there's probably no results and that's what united are doing that they're putting things in so there's zero results oh we caught you can't be somebody who's going to manage in the world cup you can't be somebody who's already got a job um and also i think as well i nearly copied and pasted it and printed it right in the athletic article it said how much cheaper will carrick be than any for anybody else and i thought oh frame it hang it in the louvre because he is cheap we don't talk about it at all him and his coaching staff are cheap and and that might be number one reason how much money will man united save by going with michael carrick and welcome to man united that that might be a reason Robert McCormack says, I always thought Pochettino is the one.

53:02You know what, Robert? I don't mind Pochettino. I actually like listening to him. I watched the overlap thing this morning. Every interviewer, I like him. He's a likable guy. He's got experience. He's got Premier League experience. He's got Champions League experience. He's got international football experience. He's managed big clubs like Chelsea, Tottenham, PSG. He knows the Premier League. He's respected by the media. so they've been none of this outsider arm room and ten arg stuff i think pochettina and also he'll be out of the world cup by the end of june usa will not be in the world cup in the middle of july so and also people say they need a break you know what's laughable about these world cup managers right is and nobody has said this well you can't give it a world cup manager because they need a holiday.

53:52Eight months of their year is a fucking holiday. They're only working for a month. They've had two months off before it. If you are a manager like Enrique and you're also managing Spain, you're probably going to need a couple of weeks off because you've been managing PSG for two years and then you've got to manage Spain. But if you're an international coach, why do you need two weeks off after the World Cup? You've literally had eight months of the year off. pochettino will will leave usa and come straight to man united so if usa are out the world cup in the first week of july he'll be at man united in the second week of july and and this is the bullshit that gets pumped out there by people where you can't take a manager from the world cup they don't need a holiday they don't need a holiday you might give them a week but they don't need a holiday they'll just be straight in um it's madness it really is but i do like pochettino roberts and it's interesting about pochettino because i did in january you just i remember saying in january i've been told keep an eye on pochettino it'd be interesting if we go back uh lucas says culture depends on people and owners managers come and go but without the right vision and values from leadership tasting success fades lasting for success fades says lucas thank you very much um we didn't quite hit 2000 likes but i'm gonna have a go anyway I'll have a go I don't know whether you can see the ball I feel like I don't know why we can't see the ball here let me have a look if you want to leave you can this is the bit where it goes a little bit astray haven't done any keep ups for a couple of days as well so might not be the best just want to have a look at my streaming here I don't know why I can't see the ball.

55:45I'm over there.

55:50All right, okay. The ball's behind me there. So if I go and stand where that ball is and do some keep-ups. Here we go. Oh, me back.

56:03It's because it's flat. I'm not used to doing it on a hill. 52, apparently. That'll do. 100 tomorrow. and we'll... 100 tomorrow. If I don't do 100 tomorrow, I'm backing Carrick. There we go. I have five minutes tomorrow on the morning stream. If I don't get 100, I have to back Carrick and say give Carrick the job. There we go. OK, we're back at two o 'clock. Thank you, everybody, for watching. Has that ball got stringed? That's me on a bad day, Robert. I'm not even happy with that. I'm way better than that. way better than that there's a bit of a wind it's a bit of a hill and I'm definitely better than that ok thank you everybody for watching, fantastic show this morning apart from the ball juggling skills Anthony says 359 is my 359 is my record I think my record is about 510 but not on a hill with a bit of wind but yeah It's been a few years since I did that.
