Welcome to the United Stands. I'm Mark Goldbridge. This is your latest Manchester United transfer news. And look, there is some things that will annoy, concern and frustrate.

1:43Welcome to Manchester United summer transfer window. But before we delve into all that, we've got United legends saying that Man United aren't far off Man City. We've got Man City moving for Man United targets again. We've got Liverpool spending£100 million on Barcola. I don't think we're far off. I think we're very, very, very far off. And we'll delve into that. We'll also talk about this big news around Man United in the last five days of the transfer window because big news is coming. But I want to start off on a positive. Maybe that's a rarity. I want to start off on a positive because today at five o 'clock, we are live doing a Champions League draw.

2:22This new Champions League concept that's been running for two years, which I absolutely happen to love, we are part of. And there are many, many reasons to be negative around Manchester United because that's the oppression we are delivered by this ownership. There is not much to smile about when you are being fed shit. But we are in the Champions League draw. I am very excited. And this is because of Michael Carrick and those players. Now, unfortunately, I don't think those players and Michael Carrick have been backed since they did that. But tonight we do get to revel and enjoy a very exciting Champions League draw with us in it.

2:59We might not be in it next year, but we are in it tonight. So I'm looking forward to that. And we'll delve into, look, just as a little teaser, we will play two out of PSG, Bayern, Real Madrid, Inter, Barcelona and Atletico. So we're going to get two really big ties because we will definitely play two of Paris, Bayern, Real Madrid, Inter, Barcelona, Atleti. So we're going to get two absolute bangers for definite. Let's delve into the news, though. People are saying, what's the big news? The big news is to check out our members section. No, I'll talk about that in a bit. The big news is there is going to be a big announcement around Man United's final five days of the window very, very soon.

3:47Now, you might see it as much as I've seen it. We are still rinsing the Belaber deal. We signed him two days ago. We had a here we go five days ago and United is still posting him turning up. Now, some people feel that that is evidence that we're not about to do any more business. I personally retain the belief that we will and I think with five days left in the window United are going to do one of two things they're either going to brief out their business is done and we have done that in the past if you think about the last few transfer windows they've not actually been that good towards the end or we're going to move on something and we will go and get that left back I'm hopeful that it will be a left back you've got Patrice Evra last night talking about it we've had Wayne Rooney talking about it we've had Gary Neville talking about it everybody knows we need a left back Every fan knows we need a left back.

4:32I'm sure Michael Carrick knows we need a left back. Are the club going to deliver it in the next five days? It's very difficult to get any information around Manchester United at the moment. We've got Ben Jacobs on at one o 'clock. I will be watching that. I'll be very interested. But the indications are, from the people that know, is that Man United haven't closed the door on this transfer window. And that's all I can give you. That's all I can give you. We haven't closed the door on this transfer window. So I believe there is a big movement coming in the next few days because we've only got five.

5:03And that means a left back that maybe we've never heard of could be still there for Manchester United. And whilst I wouldn't sit here and promise it and get massively excited about it, and I have to temper my excitement because of the Champions League, I do believe we'll go and get a left back. Now, I might end up being a moron for that. And if I am, you know, call it me on Wednesday morning. But I believe United have to do business in the next five days. And we're not talking about five weeks here. We're talking about five days where we've got a Champions League draw tonight and a game against Ipswich on Sunday.

5:39So really, you've probably got two or three days to actually start motoring on this left back. So I'm expecting, demanding. And from what I'm hearing, the door is not closed. So therefore, a big announcement should be on the way. It could be a big announcement the other way that we're not doing any business, but we're in the last five days of this window now. What do you think is going to happen? I do think we will do something. And it's very interesting as well because I think this season for Manchester United is so defining. And I'm almost loathe to say what I'm about to say because we've done it so many times.

6:16But I think this season's really make or break. I think it could go okay. It could go well, or it could go absolutely horrific. And it just depends on what these players can do with what they've got and what Michael Carrick can do with what he's got. And what I mean by that is, I saw Brian Robson this morning, Man United legend, still very close to the club. So he's probably not going to say anything negative. But he said, I don't think we're far off Man City. Those were the words of Manchester United legend Brian Robson. I don't think we're far off Man City. And I thought to myself, look, you can respect people and you can, you know, discuss their opinions.

7:00And this is a news show. But what I would say is Michael Carrick is going to have to defy logic to get close to Man City. I'm not here to ridicule Brian Robson or any other legend or any other fan. but we are far off Man City. To publicly say we're not far off Man City, to me, it's bordering on propaganda. We're very far off Man City. Apart from personal opinion, I actually pose the question, what good does it do to say we're not far off Man City when most people would say that's bullshit? So what good does it do? Are we basically saying that if Michael Carrick does badly, we weren't far off Man City, so he's to blame?

7:50Are we basically saying to Michael Carrick that you've got to be close to Man City? Because, I'm sorry, I look at Manchester City with probably£400 million of spend this summer and probably£400 million of sales this summer, a ridiculously well-run football club in the sense that they can sell£400 million and buy£400 million. I mean, imagine you've got a car that's worth a million. Who's got a car that's worth a million? Imagine you've got a car that's worth a hundred grand. Imagine you've got three cars that are worth 300 grand and you want to buy three other cars. Sell them for 300 grand, buy three.

8:26This is not, you can't criticize this. This is like, I've ended up in the same situation with the same amount of money in my bank. It's incredibly well-run football clubs. How can we be far off Man City when we were far off them last season and they've had a better summer than us. I mean, we're really hoping that just because they've replaced their manager that we're not far off. I mean, that's basically it, isn't it? Pep's gone, so we're not far off Man City. They are this morning, wait for this, Manchester City this morning, who are bringing this Brazilian Alain in. They've brought Boadie in.

9:00They've brought Anderson in. They're going to bring Enzo Fernandes in. They're now going for Endia from Everton, a player that we wanted. a player that we wanted they're going for Liverpool I've just had here we go Bomba on Barcola they're also getting Saar they've also got Munez and people think Liverpool the hilarious thing is people think Liverpool's transfer window is not very good Liverpool fans don't think they've done enough but they've already gone past us now in the space of 24 hours they've spent on two players what we've spent in our entire summer so I think we're very far off I think we're very far off Spurs I think we're very far off Chelsea I think we're very far off Arsenal I think we're very far off Liverpool and I think we're very far off Man City in relation to ambition in the transfer window that doesn't mean we won't be far off at the end of the season Michael Carrick might work a bloody miracle again but it is time I think that people stopped burying their head in the sand and you know I could shout out certain ex-players I could call out certain content creators.

10:09I could call out certain people in the media, certain journalists. But I really do think that I would call them all out and say, at what point are you going to remove your head from the Glazer's arse and call out what is staring you in the face? This is an abysmal transfer window with no ambition. And it is pathetic backing of a manager when you look around this league and see Iriola being given£100m players as a new manager at Liverpool. And De Zerbi being given hundreds of million pounds as a new manager at Spurs. And Alonso being given£100m players as a new manager at Chelsea. And Maresca being given£100m players at Man City as a new manager at, you know.

10:52and they're all in the Premier League, why is there not universal agreement that the way the Glazers and Ineos have supported Michael Carrick and this fan base this summer is disgusting? Why are people out there still cheerleading for them, saying, you know, it's a good summer? What about being a Man United fan makes you not want us to be going out doing the business Liverpool and Chelsea and everybody else is doing. I mean, I hear people in the fan base saying, I don't want to buy people for 100 million. I'm sort of like, I mean, I even see, I saw an article this morning. I haven't read it, but sometimes the headline can give you an opinion.

11:40Basically, there was an article in The Guardian today saying that Jadon Sancho and Paul Pogba are without clubs in 2026. and it shows how badly United have bought over the last few years. I thought, here we go. Here we bloody go again. Pogba cost£89 million. Jadon Sancho cost£75 million. They're expensive signings. This is why we don't need to do them anymore. Get out. Do one. What a load of shite. So£89 million for Pogba and£75 million for Sancho, they both flopped. So we mustn't do those sort of signings anymore.

12:18so what about Arsenal buying Declan Rice for£100 million that worked this is what I mean there's almost like this bloody cult cult cult in our fan base that believes the shit these owners feed you that we don't need to spend on big players anymore because in the past it's gone wrong listen We've made transfer mistakes Remove expensive Expensive mistakes is an irrelevance Expensive is what makes you think we shouldn't spend money anymore We've made transfer mistakes Expensive transfer mistakes Remove the word expensive Expensive is irrelevant We've made transfer mistakes Whether you've spent£100 million on Well, whether you've spent£90 million on Paul Pogba or£35 million on Donny van der Beek.

13:14Both mistakes. Both mistakes. Whether you spend£30 million on Xerxes or£60 million on Agate, both mistakes. We don't make expensive mistakes. We make mistakes. There aren't many players we've bought for under£50 million that have actually done well either. So, I think it's a pathetic transfer window and the proof's going to be in the pudding. We will find out over the next few months just how bad this window is going to impact on us. Because if all those teams that have gone and been ambitious end up better than us and we're sinking down the league, I want you all to remember this. Michael Carrick delivered what we're going to get exciting tonight, a Champions League qualification.

14:06The board then didn't back him. so when we're doing really shit if we're doing really shit and hopefully we won't but if we're doing really shit in the next few months and everyone's screaming Carrick out just remember this abysmal transfer window and also who appointed him that's all I want to say because it could go well hopefully it'll go well hopefully we'll be fighting for their title in the Champions League and you know everyone will be saying what a great job Glynios have done how did they do it you know but I just want people to remember if it all goes to shit, remember who's responsible.

14:41Remember. Very, very important. What's the big announcement, Mark? Well, we don't know what the big announcement is, but with five days to go in the window, there's going to be a big announcement. We're either going to go and get this left back, which I think we will, and we'll find out who it is very, very soon, or we're going to announce we're doing no more business. And either way, that's a very, very big thing. And we've only got to wait probably two, three days to find out what we're doing. But tonight at five o 'clock, we have got the Champions League draw. Somebody's just asked, how does it work?

15:11So basically, five o 'clock tonight, we will be live. I can't remember the last time we were live doing a Champions League draw, actually. Very much looking forward to it. So tonight we are live at five o 'clock for the Champions League draw. Always a good laugh. Ranieri always turns up as a right load of shit. It's a bit like when Terry Wogan used to do the Eurovision when I do a Champions League draw. So tune in. It'll be good fun. So basically, we'll get two games from pot one, two, three, four. So all I want is PSG and Real Madrid. Not a lot to ask. But you get eight games. So people go, I don't want to play PSG.

15:46I don't want to play Real Madrid. I bloody do. I want to know how good we are. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised if we beat PSG if we get them at Old Trafford, by the way. Newcastle did it. People are going to fall off their chair and go, what is Goldbridge smoking? Like, Man United against teams that attack them. We love it because we can counterattack. But look, let's not start saying we're better than PSG. We will get two teams from pot one, two, three, four, like I say. I want... Look, in pot four, you've got Slavia, Prague, Bratislava, Stuttgart, Athens, Lask, Como, Lenz, Viking, Sabah. Whoever we get out of those, unless we get Como and Stuttgart, six points.

16:27Pot three, we'll get two out of Feyenoord, Lille, Bode Glimt, Napoli, Leipzig, Villarreal, Venobache, Shakhtar and Galatasaray. Tassaray. Slightly more difficult, but again, you'd be looking to win those games. Pot two, we'll get two out of Dortmund, Roma, Sporting, Porto, Bruges, Betis, and PSV. And again, you'd be looking to... So you know what I mean? Pot two, three, four, six games. You'd be looking to win four or five of those. That puts you into the qualifier at least. So you can have a bit of fun in pot one. Pot two, three, four is where you've got six games, you've got 21 points, 18 points, and that's where you get your points to get through to the knockouts.

17:10Pot one will get two out of Paris, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Inter, Barcelona, Atletico Madrid. I mean, look, we could get Inter and Atletico Madrid. I think we'd be very unlucky to get those. they're probably the easiest games but I want to get Bayern Munich I want to get Real Madrid I want to get Barcelona I do want to get them because I think it's just that's what we're in this tournament for I want to see where we are I want to get I want to see is it the Nou Camp or in Paris so yeah I'm very excited about it I think my one prediction it's written in the stars we'll get Barcelona because of Marcus Rashford but I'm very excited look there's not a lot to be excited about with Manchester United, but I love the Champions League concept.

17:55We're not been in it for a while. And the great thing about this new Champions League format is unlike many things in life, when people change things, they normally change it for the worse, but sometimes change is good, like we've seen with the PGM all this season. We will, you know, sometimes in the Champions League, you go in it, you're in a group stage, you don't get anybody decent, and you get knocked out, a whole year goes, you didn't play anyone any good. This time, before Christmas, we should play two out of, you know, potentially we could get Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, which would be bloody brilliant.

18:27I was so excited about it. Really looking forward to it. However, the realist in me says, still a shit transfer window. And we have been let down big time, certainly. Let me get into some of your comments very, very quickly and then we'll carry on with the news. What happens if we lose our first five games, says Al Imar Wintlau? I can't guarantee anything in life, but I think we'll beat Ipswich. I think Everton is 50-50 but if we do beat Everton we've got six out of nine and then it's a Manchester derby where we always seem to do well in the Manchester derby. So we could have nine from 12 in four games time.

19:09So look, you've got to... Let's not go from Hull to losing our first five games. I think that there's a lot of football to be played and we're not horrific as a team. And, you know, we've also had the cup draw, haven't we? We've got Brighton in the Carabao Cup, somebody just said. Then we've got Fulham away after Man City. So look, and we'll have a Champions League game. So look, the only problem with Man United at the moment is our owners. If we had ambition this summer, I'd be very, very excited. But look, it does concern me that Morgan Rodgers goes to Chelsea for 115. Tonali goes to Spurs for 90, Mateus Fernandes for 85, Bacala, Bacala, Barcola goes to Liverpool for£100 million.

19:56Chelsea, Spurs and Liverpool are not Man City and Arsenal. They're pretenders and they're spending big money and we're not. I said it to Wayne, I'll say it to you. There is no evidence in the modern football world that you can be successful with a tight arse. And what I mean by that is there is no evidence in the modern world that you can build a sustainable era of success by not spending money. It's football. It's not your fucking mortgage. It's football. Too many accountants in our fan base. 20 years ago, you'd sign someone like Wayne Rooney and it'd just be up yours. We've got one of the best up and coming players in the Premier League.

20:35Nobody mentioned the fee. Nobody mentioned the wages. Nowadays, people are analysing the wage and the fee before they even look at the player. Well done Glazers. That's what they've done to our fan base. In fact, we are so indoctrinated to finance in our football club, no other club does it. Man City fans don't say, oh, I don't know about£90 million on Boadi. Arsenal fans don't go, oh, I don't know about£100 million on Declan Rice. Chelsea fans don't go, £115 million for Morgan Rodgers. We're not even in Europe. We've only got a 40 ,000 capacity stadium. How are we going to do this? It's so irresponsible from the club.

21:09Why are we spending£117 million on Morgan Rodgers? He's not even the best number 10 in England. Oh my God, 40 ,000 capacity and we're not in the Champions League. Oh my God, what are we doing? Oh, why are we buying players for£117 million? Stop it, stop it. Cancel the deal, cancel the deal. Let's go and buy a player from Preston for£30 million who might be brilliant in three years. Welcome to Man United because we do that. We would do that if we spent£117 million on Morgan Rodgers, half this fan base would be shitting themselves saying, oh, the finance, the finance, it doesn't work. That's what we've become.

21:45No other club does it. No other club does it. 20 years ago, we didn't used to do it. We have fans now who tell us not to buy decent, exciting players because it's too expensive. Oh, what about the debt? Oh, you know, I just, I just, it's an age thing. It's definitely an age thing because those of us who grew up with Sir Alex never used to think about British transfer records or anything like that. But nowadays, people are on transfer market. Oh, look at the injury record. Look at that, to be fair, injury record's good. But yeah, everybody around us is showing ambition and our fan base is acting like accountants, telling us we shouldn't overpay.

22:27We shouldn't overpay. I've never heard such shit in all my life. Man United fans saying we shouldn't overpay on transfers while they sit there spending 120 quid on a Man United top being absolutely ripped off. Yeah? I think it probably will end up as a short, Craig. Wouldn't be surprised if it's announcing the Pepe, the Page signing, build you up and disappoint you, but who knows? Yeah, I mean, look, Smoggy, I think that Lewis Page from Leicester probably still could happen if we're being honest. Chin says, none of the signings excite me. We will struggle this season and Carrick will be sacked.

23:00The players lack the zeal to run more fights and work hard. Look, 10 seconds, right? Michael Carrick does really bad and gets sacked. What are you going to do about it? You'll all get excited about the next manager, whether it's Eddie Howe or whoever, and it'll all be Carrick's fault and then we'll start the cycle again. It's not negative to have standards. It's not negative to be real. I don't want it to go wrong because I don't want us to sack another manager. And I also don't want it to go wrong because I'm so bored of the same cycle of manager gets the blame, someone else comes in, does well for a little bit, doesn't get backed, gets sacked, gets the blame and it all starts over again.

23:41What good comes out of Michael Carrick failing? Nothing. The only thing good that happens to this football club is a change of ownership. Because the next guy comes in and the next message is we're not going to overpay. We're not going to overpay. they're not going to overpay they're not going to pay they're not going to pay for whoever the manager is so we won't compete we still should have beaten Hull regardless of the transfer window let's focus on that now Rory I do agree with you on that one I literally said that on Stick to United didn't I I said not a fan of the Glazers not a fan of Ineos but regardless of a shit transfer you should still beat Hull with the players that we've got I completely agree same with Ipswich I think the transfer window and the pathetic backing of the manager that starts to hit us in about two months.

24:27United did not buy Perisic, ignored reports and Oli on Haaland, screwed up on Bellingham and several other not expensive mistakes, which are now 500 million, this is bail wall justice. That's what I mean about the cycle, mate. It just goes on and on and on. Como are underrated in pot four would be a fun game. I'd love us to get Como, mate. But the trouble with a draw is if you just want one team, it's quite difficult to pull them out. But I would like Como, yeah. Robert McCormack says, I would love Real Madrid at Old Trafford so badly. Yes, yes. Mourinho back. We're going to get two good games.

25:01If we're lucky, we might get five or six. If we pull the right teams out in the other pots, we might get five or six good games. But look, Michael Carrick earned this. I won't say that cheaply. He earns us this and I'm going to enjoy it. But you've got to be scared about whether it's going to happen again. I mean, I saw, I don't know whether I read it or I saw it or I heard it yesterday. And it's way too early to say this, but it should come as a warning. Look, this is not going to happen, but you can say it's a warning. And if I was the owner of the club, I would take it as a warning. So basically, what was said was Arsenal are clearly going to challenge for the title, top two.

25:49Man City probably are going to be there as well, top two. Chelsea, no Europe, actually look really well drilled and hungry. Top four. Liverpool, Iriola, already getting good results when they look like they were going to lose. Adding better players will get better as the season goes along. Top four. That leaves one spot. Fifth place. Man United, Aston Villa, Tottenham or a shock. you'd say Man United at the moment but it's precarious what if Spurs do really really well without Champions League without Europe 5th place United are out so it was a really good comment because it wasn't like saying United aren't going to finish in the top 5 I think we've all predicted that they will but you can already map out it's precarious now with a week left in the window so if I'm the owner and I don't buy players in January, I'd be looking at that and going, yeah, Champions League's qualification, which we absolutely need, is precarious on the opening game of the season.

26:58Let me go and make sure it's not precarious. But they won't. They'll roll the dice and hope. Other teams are Frankenstein teams, great players individually, but are they great teams? Reason I was adamant about Belaber is he fixed exactly what this team needs. If we beat low block, we can catch City. Oh my God, Kiel. I hope you're right I hope you're right What a day Champions League draw and GTA 6 preview bring on PSG says Marku and Craig Smith says if we beat Ipswich on Saturday they'd be the type to say we don't need more signings we beat Ipswich put the budget on the stadium Coxie says Craig Smith Joe says what about Everton's Jake O 'Brien left back centre back watch this space I thought he was a right back he's about 6 foot 5 No, I don't mind Jake O 'Brien.

27:47I think he's a good player, but no, not for what Man United are looking at. That would be, no, we can't do that. Would Beppe have counted as Premier League proven, says Tristan. Ruben had better eyes for players than Carrick, says Chin. And fascinating interview with Wayne. We are at least four players from Man City's level. Carrick is running off miracles and hope, unfortunately, says Constantine. Thanks very much for your message. Let me just drop this in as well. Oh, actually, did I get an answer on this?

29:53I don't think I did if you are a member please watch this today it was so much fun to film it chocolate bars and questions were asked this is our bonus members section So Stick to United goes out every Tuesday at 8am. You can watch the first two episodes, of course. But on a Thursday in our exclusive members club, which you can join by clicking the members button, we have Wayne Rooney plays Tenable against Mark Goldbridge, which is out today. And there is a part at the start where there's a load of chocolate bars on the table. If you know, you know. So do not miss that. It was a good one. We enjoyed filming that.

30:36and a bit of a quiz involved as well. So good stuff. Check it out in the members section. Also, every Wednesday on the members section, we have our fancy Premier League, which some of you are in, that you can get involved in as well. Emily Derry says, City are going for Endia, not because they need him, but because he makes their squad better. United are quibbling about signing necessities like a left-back to come into the starting 11. I mean, could you put something more articulately than that? Absolutely spot on. Man City and other clubs are buying players to fill out their squad. So that if a problem comes along in the season, they have backup.

31:15Arsenal do this. That's why they bought Konza. They've already got Mascara. They've already got Calafiore. They've already got Hincape, all who can play centre-back if there's a problem with Gabriel or Saliba. And they bring Konza in because they're thinking, what if, what if? That's what you're up against if you want to be the best. Teams who have starting 11s and backup 11s. Then you've got Man United who won't buy players who are needed for the first team. How can you compete against teams in your league that are buying top quality bench players for 60, 70 million pounds and United won't even spend 60, 70 million pounds on necessities and they'll leave it open?

32:00Look, we'll all have to wait and see what this season throws up But what I would say is You can bury your head in the sand and hope And maybe it'll be okay But the warning signs are there in 4K It's not speculative Everything that's happening around us is fact Other clubs in our league are spending big money On very good players building out squads and we are sitting down saying, we're not spending any money, let's hope it works. It might work, but if it does work, it's by look, it's not by design. And one thing I think we've all learned in our time on this planet is that you can throw a six and you can get away with it.

32:49Now do it again. Now do it again. And at some point you won't throw a six. And that's what United are trying to do. They threw a six in January. They got Champions League football. You're now asking Carrick to throw a six again. That's not how to run a football club. You can't run a football club on luck. You've got to run it on structure, plan and efficiency. We're not doing that. We're not doing that. It needs calling out. And I'm disgusted. I am absolutely disgusted by the void of silence from the media. You know, if you had one news outlet around Man United, you'd go, maybe it's just incompetence.

33:28There are at least 10, 10 outlets around Man United that live off Man United News. With journalists working for them who say nothing about the reality of how bad this summer transfer window's been. Nothing. Because they're scared. They're in the pocket. They're like, oh, I might not get an interview at the press conference. it's disgusting. They are facilitators of this ownership. There's very, very few people out there calling it out for how it is. Very few people. And it's not about screaming and shouting and swearing and ranting. It's about communicating in a very clear way with facts in your pocket that all these clubs in the Premier League around us are willing to spend these amounts of money that we're not to bring in good players and fill out their squad to compete for top five.

34:27And we are sitting there going, we'll get by on plan D, E and F signings. And we'll also leave holes in the team as well. That's not fair on Michael Carrick, you prats. Forget fan opinion. We're talking about a manager and a team that's not been reinforced. And I know for a fact there will be players in that squad who are fuming about it. fuming about what everyone else is doing and what we're doing. But nobody will talk out about it. Not enough people are talking out about it. Shea says, Hi, Mark. Thanks for helping me get through the passing of my mum with the team we have now. What stage of the Champions League should we get to?

35:07It's hard, Shea. I mean, the Champions League nowadays, you play eight games. If you finish in the top eight, you go straight through to the last 16. If you finish eighth to 24th, I think it is, or 30th, I can't remember. you go into a qualifier game. Man United should be looking to get to quarterfinal. That's where I think Man United should be. But the quarterfinal puts you in the top eight in Europe. Are we a top eight team in Europe? Probably not. So I would say last 16 is the minimum we need to get to. That's where I think we need to get to. Because we're probably not a top eight team in Europe, are we?

35:47If I'm being honest. but my standards say quarterfinals minimum because I'm a Man United fan and that's the standards I, you know, I think we should challenge for titles. I think we should hit the quarterfinals of the Champions League as a minimum. In reality, we're not going to fight for a title and we're not a top eight team in England. So probably 16, last 16.

36:09Yeah, but it depends who you draw as well. Somehow I get the feeling Coxie and Barada did a movies night and watched Moneyball together and decided that this fits the scheme of things, says AJ. look how Man City's moving on players that aren't good enough they finished second and are doing everything to get back on top we hold on to scraps says Christophe love the aura maxing in today's intro says Gorzola thank you very much pal Alex welcome to the members club thank you very much don't forget to join the members club if you are a member make sure you watch that video tonight please do a GTA 6 watch tonight Mark says Ross what time is that out because I will definitely watch that Kieran welcome to the members club as well

36:52and Daniel Todd. I tell you what, quick story. I nearly didn't do a show today. So over the last few months, a lot of people have said to me that you need, when they've noticed in my company that I do need things repeating. So they've said, you need to get your ears tested. I said, I don't need to get my ears tested. I'm just a very ignorant person and I hear what I want to hear. Anyway, I went for an ear test and they said the right ear might be slightly off. So they've sent me for an MRI scan today to have a look at the ear. So an MRI scan is one of these tube things. I had an MRI scan when I was about 15 because I used to get headaches and it was something to do in my eyes.

37:35So I had an MRI scan and they check if you've got metal in your pockets and all this sort of stuff. Anyway, I'm fine. You know, bravado, absolutely fine. Have you had one before? Yeah, I'm absolutely fine. Do you suffer with claustrophobia? Nope, absolutely fine. Lie me on the bed. Anyway, put headphones on. And then they put this thing over your head so that your head doesn't move. It's like a contraption over your head and they bolt it. I'm like, I don't really like this much. Fine. Are you okay? Yeah, fine, fine, fine. Then the bed moves into the tunnel. Your whole body's in the fucking tunnel.

38:07Anyway, you've got this buzzer where if you're feeling uncomfortable, you can do it. I'd only been in there three seconds. I'm pressing the button, pressing the button. I come back out and they said, what's wrong with Do you need the toilet or something like that? I said, yeah, I'm nearly just shit myself. Why? I said, it's like I'm in a bloody coffin. I can't move my head. And like the wall's that far in front of me and my whole body's in a tube. I said, is there a different way we can do it? She said, no, it's an MRI scan. I said, well, how long am I going to be in there? She said, half an hour.

38:35I said, what if there's a fire? She says, what do you mean? I said, what if there's a fire? Oh, we'll get you out first. Well, you won't. You bloody won't. I'll be bolted in a bloody tunnel and the fire alarm goes, you're a bloody leg it. I've been in bloody office blocks. When there's a fire, don't get your bag. Don't log off your computer. Get out the building. As if you're going to go, hold on a minute, there's a fire. Let's go in there and get him out of the MRI scan that's going to take us about five minutes. You're going to fuck off and leave me. She says, you need to calm down, do some breathing exercises.

39:04I said, there must be another way of doing the MRI scan. She said, if there was another way of doing the MRI scan, do you think we wouldn't have come up with it now? I says, well, what are we going to do then? And she said, will it help if you play some music? I said, no. So we had a big conversation. Anyway, I did it in the end. She said, I can talk to you through the headphones. And basically, when you're in the tunnel, it goes, the scan will take two minutes and it makes a big noise and then it resets and there's a bit of a gap and then the scan will take two minutes so every time there was a gap she's having a conversation with me and she was like is there anything you want to talk about and I said yes Manchester United and she was like what do you want to talk about the summer transfer window so every time there was a gap she was like what do you think she knew nothing about football she said I'll let you lead and I was like in the first gap she was like what do you think about the transfer window I said I think it's bloody pathetic by the end of the half an hour because there was gaps in between she was asking good questions she was like well aren't man United meant to be good Yeah, it took my mind completely off it.

40:06It calmed me down loads, but fucking hell.

41:50I wouldn't class myself as claustrophobic. I don't know whether many of you would. And I wouldn't class myself as scared of heights. I wouldn't class myself as, you know, someone who panics in water. But put me in a bloody swimming pool with a great white shark and I'll panic. Put me at the top of the Empire States building and ask me to stand on a one metre squared slab. I'll shit myself. Put me in a tube with my head locked down and the fucking tube about that far and you know, your whole body's in it. Yeah. Yeah. It's tough. I said to her at the end of it though, does this happen all the time?

42:27And she went, no. And I went, oh, and then she went, no, yeah, it does. I said, you should have said that at the start. That's funny. That makes me relax. Yeah, anyway, I don't know where I am now. That's a bit of an after show on a 10 o 'clock show. People only watch the morning show, like, what the fuck's this shit? Yeah, we sometimes do this on an 8 o 'clock show. But I just wanted to, basically, I'm sharing the story because we're all vulnerable. You know, we all pretend we're not, but we are. We're all vulnerable. And Man United are vulnerable. Man United are vulnerable. And sometimes when you're vulnerable, you panic.

43:04And sometimes when you panic, you don't perform. And I think Man United are going into a very vulnerable season because we're not equipped. I would say that Michael Carrick is being sent up a mountain and he might make it, but it's going to be hard because the Glazers haven't given him enough food. They haven't given him enough oxygen and they haven't given him the right equipment. So at times he's going to get hungry. At times he's going to get cold. And at times, you know, he's going to really struggle because of lack of oxygen. It doesn't mean he can't make it if he's determined and he's resolute.

43:47And, you know, he can do it. But he shouldn't be climbing that mountain with the facilities he's been given. And that's my concern. He can do it. I predict the United will finish third. They could also finish 10th. This is a vulnerable season and people need to wake up and own it and be honest and say, look, even the most positive fans, it can be a good season. But you should still call out. Because I don't understand how people are pro Carrick, pro the team and pro the ownership when very clearly you can only be pro Carrick and the team and anti the ownership. because they're not in synergy anyway.

44:28They're just not. They're not. Somebody just said the bonus material is not out. It is. I think it's just dropped now. They drop it straight after the 10 o 'clock show. So let me just double check that for you. Wayne Rooney plays tenable. I'm just going to go into the back system. Remember, it's a members only video, so that might be not why you can see it, but let me just double check. Content. Yeah, it's had 104 views and it's only been out for a minute. So it is up there on the member section now. If you are a member, get involved. And if you're not, then become a member. In fact, you know what?

45:10It's a Thursday. We're a great community. Let me gift out. I'm going to gift out 10 today. So 10 of you who aren't members get to go and watch it straight away because it's so good. I want people to see the bonus stuff we're doing. And we are going to start a very... The bonus, the member stuff's bonus and it's very, very good. But I've also got another idea that I ran past Gary yesterday and he said, go for it, Mark.

45:4310 of you should get it. Now, there it is. There it is. So, Grant Williams, you got one. Fenkin got one. Hayden got one. Anton got one. Rico got one. Tottenhamer Goats got one. Oh, God. How's a Tottenham fan got a bloody free membership? YouTube, that's shite. CT scans even worse. They inject a fluid into your body, which feels like ice going through your veins whilst you're in a tunnel. Worst feelings is smoggy. I tell you what I did have once. When I was about... It's a bit vulgar, but basically, I won't tell you the symptoms of what was going on. I was about 21 and I couldn't eat for 24 hours.

46:26And obviously it was a stomach issue. Then they gave me an enema, which no matter how much you think you've gone to the toilet, you still want to go because it basically clears you out. And then they gave me a drink that was some sort of dye that goes all the way through your stomach, right? So it helps them see easier. Then they put you in a machine. And it goes up and down and that. And I think they pump liquid into you as well. I just remember it was like going round and round on a bloody roller coaster with a stomach full of fucking... Oh, it was horrible. Maybe it was a colonoscopy. Oh, yeah.

47:05Did I have a colon... Maybe it was a colon... I think that's what it was. I think I've had a colonoscopy. I think I've just realised I have actually had a colonoscopy. That must be what it was. And I was only 21.

47:26Yeah, I won't tell you what the symptoms are. I won't tell you why on an early morning show. Still baffles me our biggest spend on a player is Pogba a decade later. But I don't think Pogba's a flop. I will argue this with anyone. I don't think Paul Pogba was a flop. I think Paul Pogba's problem was the people he had around him, the personality he was. he didn't make the most of the talent he was. Paul Pogba could have been Zidane. Now that sounds preposterous because Zidane is Zidane, but he could have been. So I think that Pogba didn't do what he could have done, but I don't think he was a flop.

48:16And he also had injuries as well. Pogba, I mean look how can Pogba be a flop? How many players go to the Etihad in a Manchester derby you're 2-0 down at half time and Man City are going to get named champions in 45 minutes he comes out in the second half and completely runs the game people forget that 45 minute performance from Paul Pogba because they like to class Pogba as a flop he wasn't a flop he didn't achieve what he should have done I mean Paul Pogba could have been a could have been a Ronaldo he could have been a Rooney he could have been a Roy Keane he could have been a signing that came in and became goated but he wasn't a flop he wasn't a flop are our players so bad that they cannot be moved for a car boot sale of Paris either Chelsea and City have sold players worth 350 million I don't think we've sold players worth 10 says Mojo we spoke about it last night didn't we Mojo Chelsea have done about 400 million pounds of sales Man City have done about 400 million pounds of sales you can moan about them buying players for hundreds of millions of pounds.

49:19But when you're selling players for hundreds of millions of pounds, that's how it works. It needs to go on the poster behind me. United fucked themselves by not being able to sell this summer. Yeah. Morning, Mark from Florida, but the Glazers rely so much on t-shirt sales. Don't you think that may account for one big signing? Maybe just wishful thinking. Thanks for making a top tier community. Look, Stain Wagon, thank you very much for your super chat. I think we're going to buy a left back. I think this big announcement is going to be that we're signing a left back. It could be that we're not signing anybody else.

49:49I've got Ben Jacobs at one o 'clock. Let's see what he says. I just, lots of people call me an idiot at the moment for saying this, but I'm absolutely convinced we're going to buy a left back of quality in the next five days. It just feels like it's the calm before the storm and everybody knows it. You know, Patrice Ebra last night, I saw a clip, very good left back for Man United, Man United leader left back. Wayne Rooney, one of the greatest players we've ever had our top scorer of all time man united need a starting left back gary neville man united need a starting left back the fan base man united need a starting left back it's not just a little little opinion it's not like a niche opinion we'd be better off without bruno it's literally we need a left back if united ignore that i think sometimes the board are quite savvy and they will realize that's the sort of thing you can't you can't ignore you can't ignore that chelsea in the last four years have sold players for over a billion pounds, says Elliot.

50:42Sounds like you won't hear the alarm anyway, says Robert McCormack. The GTA 6 reveal is at 8pm on Netflix. Can we do a watch along? Well, I've got a show at 8 o 'clock here. Rob says the exact same thing happened to me. MRI is scary, says Rob. Look, if you ever have to have an MRI, the reason we tell you these sorts of stories is because we're all vulnerable and we're all humans. So you can all laugh when you have one and go, you're not alone. They are quite, I think, especially if you've got like, some people think I'm on the spectrum for something. I don't believe in that, but I have got a creative mind.

51:20And whilst I was in there for half an hour, I did start to think about all sorts of things like, and my heart rate was going up and down and you have to try and control it. So yeah, if you ever have one, that's why I told you. So you just know. Rodri replaced with 100 plus player Salah replaced with 100 million plus player Casemiro leaves I love this from Sean So Rodri goes Man City's best player Replaced with 100 million pound player Replaced with two maybe Bawadi and Enzo Fernandes Salah, Liverpool's best player Replaced with 100 million pound player Casemiro, one of our best players Nowhere near 100 million pound player Sad to see my team getting ruined I love that Sean and I think that's the comment of the day.

52:05Brilliant. Sad to see my team. No, it's not that I don't believe in autism. I don't believe I've got anything like that. Autism, ADHD, whatever. Sad to see my team getting ruined, says Imp. Please do the watch along, says Ross. Okay, okay. I know that I say sometimes crazy things, but we did beat City. Kiel, we did beat Arsenal and we did finish third. Mate, I'm not saying we're going to have a shit season. I said we'll finish third. I said after we lost to Hull, we'll beat City in the match reaction. That's who we are. Jacqueline Hyde, rollercoaster FC, Ronan Keating. But you also have to acknowledge whatever happens this season, the board have screwed Carrick.

52:52So if we have a good season, I don't want to hear people saying Wilcox and Barada did a good job. I think they're fucking useless. If we have a good season, the statement is this. If Man United have a good season, the only person responsible for it is Michael Carrick. You cannot claim any credits for the season we have if it's good, if you're the board, because categorically, that's pathetic. So remember this, if it all goes wrong, it's on the board. And if it all goes right, it's on Michael Carrick. Because that summer transfer window is a disgrace. And no CEO, director of football or head of recruitment should be taking any credit for anything good that happens this season.

53:33because even Belaber, Santos and Tillemans are not plan A, B and C. So you can't claim credit when you buy plan B. It'll be Carrick who gets the best out of Belaber and Santos and Tillemans. He's been given nothing or plan C and D. It will be on him. It'll be on him if he can get the most out of this shit window. And if it goes wrong, it'll be on them. Take care, everyone. Stay safe. We're back at one o 'clock with Ben Jacobs. Let's see what he's got to say. We've got the Champions League draw at five o 'clock. Let's see what I've got to say. Bring on Barcelona. I guarantee we're going to get Barcelona.

54:08And don't forget to check out the members video. A lot of you will enjoy it because you've been asking about, asking Wayne about what his favourite chocolate bar is and where he'd put it. That's on the members video that's just dropped and we play Tenable, a very good one as well. Check it out. Bit of bonus for the members. I've gifted 10 of you as well. Go and watch it. Speak in a bit. Take care.
