United Stand reacts to Manchester United’s 4-1 loss to Como, arguing Michael Carrick should be sacked immediately. The host claims the team lacked fitness, tactical clarity, and passion; results previously masked problems; and the club/board failed to prepare the squad and make the right managerial appointment. Key claims include: no shots on target in the first half, possession below 38%, tactical substitutions backfired (Bruno subbed late; Cunha removed while Tillemans stayed at 10), and the club won’t sack Carrick because no replacement is lined up.
Leeds match “positives” were spin; Carabao Cup exit after leading 2-0; relegation-form league start (7 points from 21).
no named guests appear; the episode is primarily the host plus live chat/commentary and mentions of pundits/ex-players (e.g., Piers Morgan, Rio Ferdinand, Gary Neville) rather than interview guests.

1:52Hello everybody, welcome to the United Stand. And Manchester United lose 4-1 to Como. And there's only one place to start here. And that's the future of the manager. I was a little bit late there. Because I wanted to quick scan of what journalists were saying. And ex-players. And I'm seeing stuff like it feels like that should be the last game for some of these Man United players. And I tell you what. Let's have a harsh truth here. Because there will be people out there that come running to the defence of the coach. And there will be people out there who are screaming and shouting. and the message get lost in Hyper Bowl.
2:26And there will be people out there saying we can't sack another manager. Absolute nonsense, right? That performance from a coaching perspective was like you'd won a competition to manage Man United on a packet of cornflakes. It was bereft of idea. There was no passion. It was absolutely abysmal. And as much as Michael Carrick is a legend of this club, and I think he's one of the most underrated players we've had in an England shirt in the last 20 years, As a coach, he ain't that. He isn't that. And 90 minutes, you should never judge a player in 90 minutes. But a lot of people are saying, how has it gone so wrong so fast?
3:06It hasn't. You were just naive. You got lost in the Oli train with the Carrick train. But the problems were already there. The reason in January when we were winning with Carrick, I kept using the PRV vision, was because results were masking the truth. There was no performance and there was no vision, but there was results. And the results were very fine margin results. We were winning games by one or two goals. I think four teams had a man sent off against us last season as well. We were playing one game a week. Bruno Fernandes was exceptional. Casemiro was exceptional. And you had people like Maguire and Luke Shaw who were playing at their limit to try and go to the World Cup.
3:53There is no World Cup. There are two games a week. There is no Casemiro. Bruno is a busted flush. And the tactics are shit. You could see this coming a mile off. It's got nothing to do with why has it gone wrong so quick. It's to do with how did the club not see the vulnerability of giving the job to Carrick. How did people, some fans, but you're not in charge. How did the club not see this? How have we got a director of football who has given this job to this man? It's crazy. Absolutely crazy that they didn't see this coming. He is out of his depth like Bilbo Baggins in the deep end of a swimming pool, like I said at half time.
4:34It's, look, there is nothing wrong with what I'm about to say. And I do feel sad to say it, but a competent football club. And Man United is a football club that should have the highest standards in the land. If this was Man City, Carrick's gone. If this was Liverpool, Carrick is gone. If this is Arsenal, Carrick is gone. So at Manchester United, whether I like saying it or not, Carrick should be gone tonight. That's not 1-0 unlucky loss. You're under massive pressure. That is an absolute schooling. What he comes out, I've got subtitles on, what he comes out and says, I will have it here live and I'll react to it.
5:18But apparently we had our best training session last week. Apparently there was lots of positives against Leeds. Bullshit. We know that for what it was, spin. The positives and bravery of what he tried to do against Leeds was bollocks. It was less than 40 % possession and Leeds could have won the game in the second half. The fantasy best training session we've had this season didn't exist. It was pure spin to try and put a positive on a shit situation. And what we've been delivered is the worst performance of the season. Como absolutely took us apart with intensity, precision, tactics, system, everything we're not.
6:04We didn't have a shot on target in the first half and we were below 38 % possession. It only went up to 45 % possession because Como basically sat and parked the bus in the second half because they could afford to. His tactical masterclass at halftime when we were 1-0 down turned into 3-0 down 10 minutes after he made the double substitution. Across 90 minutes, that was a tactical disaster class for Carrick. There are no positives. There is no player that comes out of that. I mean, Deleu, Mount and Tillemans were horse shit and they played 90 minutes. Why was Cunha subbed off? What has Cunha done to Carrick?
6:42Cunha's on the left wing being played out of position. Tillemans is playing at number 10 like shite and he takes Cunha off to keep Tillemans on with no pace. I don't even understand that. Cunha as a number 10 has mobility. Tillemans doesn't. I'll take Cunha off. he takes Bruno off with 20 minutes to go which is a big play but I can see through that that's about going look at me I found a backbone I've took Bruno off I mean it's just it's a catastrophe and it's sad to say because Michael Carrick will always be a legend as a player but just like Oligon O'Souza is is not a mangane-eyed manager and people people must withdraw compassion and sentimentality and say it how it is.
7:26I don't hear or see anybody coming out saying we've got to stick with Carrick. And in fact, I'll blow another myth out of the water. It's not Carrick's fault. It's the club not backing him in the summer. No, no, this needs to disappear, right? I even said it. I said it before the season started. If Carrick fails, we must remember that the summer transfer window was shit. The problem is that's not true. That's not true, right? We do need a left back and we do need a striker. But the team he picked today and the team that played against Leeds and Hull and every other shit performance should be way better than this.
8:07Yes, the owners are shit and we're never going to win the league with these owners and Wilcox is shit and the club is being flushed down the toilet. But Michael Carrick as a coach is his own problem. Like if I was a new owner, I wouldn't keep Carrick. If Conte comes in and fails because the owners, it's very different to Carrick failing. He is failing because he is not a good coach. He is failing because we are unfit. we are a really bad team and he's a really bad coach. And yes, he could have been given better tools, but he hasn't used these tools very well. Like the fitness levels are abysmal.
8:51The tactics are abysmal. The possession, you know, I used to mock Thomas Frank at Brentford because they were less than 40 % possession. And that's us. And I wouldn't ask anybody to watch that game back. But at any point, can you tell me what the system was, what the plan was, what the tactics were? It was absolutely off the charts. Terrible. And, you know, look, it's unfair to single out one player in a performance where we have shit owners, a shit board, shit coaches and a shit team. But if one player simplifies or symbolises Man United, it's Deleu. Now, I know for a fact that Deleu cares about Man United and he works hard and he's a good lad, but he ain't a good player.
9:42Deleu is now on the senior leadership team at Man United, having never proven he's a Man United player. He's just on the senior leadership team because of longevity. This was a young player we brought in from Porto with potential that he never reached. and yet he's a senior player. I mean, that to me symbolises Man United's problem absolutely on point. Deleuze has become a senior player at Man United just by hanging around. He never actually achieved his potential and yet he's a senior player. And tonight, that first 45 minutes, he should never be coming on at second half and let him play 90 minutes.
10:21And I've seen Deleuze four or five times this season play absolute shite and still play 90 minutes. what is the coach doing? Mason Mount playing in the midfield. He's fucking shit in the midfield. Tillemans at 10 with no pace. I mean, this is just like we went from 1-0 down at half time to foot. Normally, you have a crap first half and a better second half. We had a worse second half than the first and the first half was shit. It's mad. It's absolutely crazy to me how bad we were in the second half. And yet the first half was incredible. Absolutely incredible. And I just think that on a serious note, I don't want to get bogged down by mistakes or individual players.
11:14We've got seven points from 21 in the league, which is relegation form. We got knocked out the Carabao Cup from being 2-0 up. And in the Champions League, we've lost two out of three. And let's be honest, the three points that we got was against the team that's one of the worst teams that's ever played in the Champions League. So I think that with regards to what we do with the manager, I'll tell you now, this club will not sack him because they've done nothing. They've not prepared to do anything. So they won't sack him, but they should. They've not prepared. They haven't got a manager lined up and they're determined to stick with Carrick.
11:57But you know why they're keeping with Carrick? It's just stubbornness. They're just being stubborn. They won't get rid of him because if they get rid of him, it shows Wilcox is shit. I mean, Sir Jim Radcliffe, if he knew anything about football, would sack Wilcox and Carrick tonight and would promote Favell and get Nagelsmann in. Berrada doesn't need to go. I'm not bothered about Berrada, but Wilcox and Carrick need to go. Carrick, because he's not up to it, and Wilcox, because he caused it. Give Favell Wilcox's job and get Nagelsmann in. It's the obvious thing to do, but we won't do it. And we'll probably beat Bournemouth on Sunday and it'll be, oh, everything's okay.
12:40And then we'll be back here again at some point in the next few weeks. Whether it's Chelsea away, Liverpool away, Villa at home, whatever. Maybe it'll be Arsenal just before Christmas. But at some point we'll be back here again. And we'll have wasted the chance of actually trying to salvage the season. Because I genuinely do believe that the fitness levels are so bad that if a coach came in and actually organised us and got us running, we would improve. And the players won't come out and say it publicly. But it's very obvious that they're not conditioned to the level they need to be to play in the Premier League and the Champions League.
13:20And they're not being coached tactically to the level that is needed. This is just a sympathy contest. You know, to me, this is just mates rates. You know, Rio Ferdinand, Manchester Evening News, some of our fans, Jason Wilcox, Sir Jim Radcliffe. they're not keeping this manager now because they believe in him or because he's a good coach. They're keeping him because he's Michael Carrick. If his name was Ruben Amrum, he'd be gone. If his name was Ten Hag, he'd be gone. And that's not, you know, I've done videos in the past where I've screamed and shouted such and such out, Van Gaal out, Tenai.
14:08I respect Michael Carrick too much to do that. But he has got to go because personally, I want us to be back in the Champions League next year. And every minute that we don't make this change, we jeopardise that. This is just a sympathy vote. This is just fantasy. And I'm telling you now, I listened a year ago to Ruben Amrim, have his name dragged through the mud because he wouldn't change from a 3-4-3. and yet in his entire career he played a 3-4-3 and yet the reason he got the job at United was because he played a 3-4-3 and he hadn't been given any midfielders and he refused to change what he believed in and he got absolutely rinsed for it absolutely rinsed for it so
14:59here we are a year later treating somebody not the same because they're a former player with a British passport. Journalists, ex-players, fans. This is the worst start to the season we've had in 40 years. And also, you can have bad results and vision. Not only have we had the worst start to the season we've had in 40 years, we're playing some of the worst football I've seen in my life. it's only consistency of performance that's covering up the fact that we had no shots on, I mean when you go down 1-0 after two minutes most teams in football will get hold of the ball and get at the opposition and most teams that go 1-0 down will be compact and counter for a bit we didn't have a shot and we had 37 % possession and Como dominated us.
16:02At 1-0 down, we got worse. And then at half time, at 1-0 down, he makes changes and we're 3-0 down 10 minutes later. I mean, not only are we losing games, we are getting absolutely outclassed. And yet, we have players that are way better than that. Way better than that. So, people want to blame it on the players. Some of the players are shit. Look, Harry Maguire tonight was rubbish, but Harry Maguire is going to be 34 next year. I think Harry Maguire might be the end of his career. And he's starting games for Man United every three days. There are mitigating circumstances. Bruno Fernandes, not playing very well, but Bruno Fernandes in a Man United shirt is like a bloke trying to ride two horses with one arse.
16:56It's impossible. At some point, things are going to go wrong and you're going to fall off. That's United's fault. We've been too reliant on Bruno for too long. We've never looked at contingency. We've never looked at building a team around him. If Bruno Fernandes has bad games, Man United suffer.
17:14Some of the players aren't good enough, but there's reasons for it. And one of the biggest reasons are we can't fucking run. We've got no fitness levels. That's where we are. Let's do player ratings. I am starting to get some of Carrick's comments coming through and I will bring them in to the show. Let me have a quick look.
17:37Do you think Carrick would resign, Mark?
17:42Carrick has apparently apologised to the away fans.
17:54Piers Morgan says, if Man United's board have any sense, which I doubt they won't leave Como until they've sacked Carrick and hired Fabregas.
18:07Bruno Fernandes has said, I think we sometimes have to be more brave under pressure. This is crap.
18:16Do you think Carrick would resign? I think Michael Carrick would get a statue. I like Carrick. I respect Carrick. I don't want to get angry at Carrick because, as I say, he was one of my favourite players. He's not up to this job. Tactically, personality, he's not up to this job. That's my opinion. Everyone's entitled to another one. If he was to resign, my respect for Carrick would go through the roof. It would show he's a Man United man, and it would show that he's not up for the job.
18:56and I'd love him to do that because I think it would cause huge problems but I don't think he'll do it because Ollie wouldn't do it. You know, I think it will be a sense of duty to try and turn this around but I don't see that happening but I think something needs that. Let's be honest.

20:53something needs to happen let's do the player ratings quickly and then I'm going to go into your comments I mean I think Lemense was probably my man of the match and it's not a high bar but he didn't really do anything wrong I'd give him a six I don't think he could do anything on any of the goals he was very busy and as a goalkeeper you know when you have a team performance like that it's rarely your fault yeah So I don't have a problem with Conte. Sorry, with Conte on the brain. Lemends. I mean, Delo, look, I see you lot do it. I very rarely do it. I'm not really interested in, you know, being sensationalists.
21:39But I think it's got to be a one. I thought, you know, the miss has an easy chance for a professional footballer. and if he scores that goal, we'd probably still lose. I'm not saying we win the game. It would have been one chance, one goal. We'd have sat deep. They'd have broke us down. I think they still would have won the game, but he's got to score the goal. He's got to score it. And then, I mean, he was tackling himself. I thought Deleuze's performance was just abysmal and that's on Carrick. You know, that's on Carrick. I mean, who could he bring on, I suppose? But, you know, this goes back to the board, doesn't it?
22:18we need a right back and a left back and we've needed a right back and a left back for years.
22:25Bruno's calling out the staff. We'll come back to that. I'll get some quotes on that. Maguire, I thought, was probably a three. Maybe you've given him a low. Yeah, I mean, look, I've got a lot more time from Harry Maguire than I have to load tonight. I think Maguire, you know, captain's armband always tries his best. I just think, you know, the game's up. We saw it with Gary Neville, didn't we? I think the game's up for Maguire this season. I don't think it's a lack of effort. I think he's just fell off. I think we've seen it a lot this season. Like, I just don't think he can operate at this level anymore.
23:03De Ligt, look, De Ligt was a four simply because I think he's got the biggest excuse out of anybody. I mean, and he wasn't good, but he hasn't played in a year. So, yeah, I'd say a four. Masraoui, again, I'd probably give him a three. I didn't really notice much. So, yeah.
23:42Santos. Bloody hell. I mean, I forgot about him. Three. Yeah. Lucky he didn't get sent off. Had to be subbed at halftime. Carried with the right thing. Tillemans. This one for me was wild. I'd I just don't understand why you sub Kunja, who you've been playing out of position, to keep Tillemans on at a 10. It was slower than a snail's handbag. And Kunja, we bought for£60 million as a number 10. And he won't fucking play him as a 10. It's mad. You've got Bruno playing false nine and Tillemans playing 10. And they've got no pace. And Kunja can actually play that position. I don't know what's gone on with Kunja.
24:22Yeah. Yeah. so look apparently Bruno has said it was the decision of the staff to not go man for man whatever that means yeah Kunia's got to get a three because he came off but I think he was harsh Bruno three not very good Mount absolute rubbish a three Embermo I mean look I like Embermo again he has to be better than that but I do feel there is a good player there we probably just don't get the best out of him playing in a very strange system with no pace in it as well so I'll give him a 3 Ahmad did alright when he came on I'll probably give him a 5 I thought Ahmad did quite well when he came on he looked bright to be fair Kunja had a fallout with Carrick and was subbed off yeah I thought Ahmad was okay Balaber look I want Balaber to do really well because Santos is a 48 million pound flop at the moment I mean fucking hell Carrick wouldn't pick him then he picks him and subs him off at half time I mean 48 million pounds who made this decision I don't know I don't know maybe there's a good player there and Carrick's not using him I don't know but it's not looking good.
25:43Tillemans looks like a player that we shouldn't have bought because he doesn't actually suit the team. So Balaber needs to work. And when Balaber comes on, you do get the intensity, but he makes mistakes. Same thing happened at Brighton last year. He runs around a lot and there's definitely talent there, but it's not the finished article. He's rough around the edges. And, you know, he made a massive mistake on one of the goals, but I mean, I give him a four probably. But we need Belaber to work. We need Belaber to work. Look, Xerxes can have a five. He scored a good goal. And I'm not going to give any of these lads anything other than a six, because they're not responsible for that.
26:23Michael Carrick, I mean, look, we've lost to Hull. We've lost to Brighton. We've lost to Atletico Madrid. We've lost to City with 10 men. we've drawn a few games playing shit but we've not been hammered we haven't been hammered until tonight and I just think the whole performance I mean look if you own a football club and your manager's under pressure and they lose 4-1 that's your decision it's like Oli when he lost to Watford right? you know we've not been hammered by anybody we've just been poor but when you get hammered that doesn't happen very often. So it's got to be a one and it's got to be gone.
27:08You know, it's got to be gone. Ahmad got man of the match with 27%. Xerxi, can you see this by the way? I read it out and then, yeah, you can. Ahmad, 27 % of the vote, man of the match. Xerxi, 23 % and Le Mans, 17%. I don't have a problem with that. Ahmad came on and did okay. Xerxi scored a goal and I thought, you know, Le Mans conceded for, but, you know, can you really blame him? I'm not 100 % sure that you can. Fan forum will be very interesting. We're still waiting to hear from Michael Carrick. Please do subscribe to the channel, by the way, everybody. We're only 20 subscribers away from 313 ,000.
27:45Remember to get involved with the United Stand. We're live every morning at 10 o 'clock, every evening at eight o 'clock. And we have got a fan forum coming up straight after this. I'm just going to get into some of your comments, but I am getting stuff coming in from Bruno. Not directly. It's the decision of the staff to not press man to man and leave a bit of space in behind to wait for them and give them the ball. But sometimes when you give the ball to these teams, they get confident. I mean, look, that's not as big as Bruno.
28:22Bruno. Sorry, that's not as big as what Martinez said last week. But let's be real here. When I hear those comments from Bruno Fernandes,
28:39the...
28:43Carrick's resigned. He hasn't resigned.
28:49No, he hasn't. When I hear those comments from Bruno, he's basically saying, I'm not...
29:07Why am I not getting any...
29:21He's on TNT talking at the moment.
29:27I'm just, I don't know why I'm not getting any bloody quotes on this.
29:40No, I'm lip reading. It doesn't look like he's resigned. He looks like a manager that's answering questions. So no, he's not resigned.
29:58No, there's nothing happened there. But look, in relation to Bruno's, what Bruno has said there, I mean, that's undermining the coach. But that is 100 % undermining the coach because he's basically saying that, you know, if you give the opposite, we didn't press them high up the pitch man for man because the coach said not to. So Bruno is basically saying that the coaching is not very good in a nice way. So it's another huge kick in the nuts for Carrick and his coaching team when you're captain and you're best player. He's saying stuff like that. So just to let the chat know, we've got a few idiots in the chat.
30:44Michael Carrick has not resigned. I'm looking at his interview here and isn't that absolutely not so look I think in relation to Bruno talking about tactics like that and saying it was the coaching staff's decision is deflecting the blame but you've probably got a very frustrated player who doesn't want to be scapegoated who's been subbed off after 20 minutes with 20 minutes to go as the captain who is you know putting the blame on somebody else effectively so I think that's
31:17basically what's happened there. Thank you to... Welcome to all the new members. Angeline, Corey, Peter, Oli. Thank you very much. Alonso says, I've got a feeling Carrick will be out the door. No support from the owners and board. I don't think he will. Oli says, Carrick couldn't motivate a jack-in-the-box. Amazing the drop-off since Casemiro. Such a disgrace. Carrick needs to go. Anne Wilcox says, KS. Could be worse. Amrim could still be manager, says Josh. What's it got to do with Amrim? and it wouldn't be worse under Amrim, Josh. You're talking out your ass. Have City paid Wilcox and Barada to dismantle us, says Ricciardo.
31:50What's happening to your right night right now is almost similar to what happened to Leeds in the early 2000s. That's ultimately got them relegated. That was from Angel. PRZ says, in summary, we need a defensive rebuild and a midfield rebuild. Oh, the midfield rebuild is horrific. Absolutely horrific. Yeah, absolutely horrific. Dylan, thanks for being a member of 51 months. I've got a feeling all the players have just given up on Carrick. Nosk says, in loving memory of MUFC, T-Bomb, Cunha's defensive work rate is also better. I'm sad Carrick will go before Glynios and I never wanted Carrick's 13.
32:24I don't think they'll get rid of him. I'll say it again. They haven't spoken to anybody to replace him. We're playing Bournemouth at home on Sunday where they'll be thinking if he wins that, it takes the pressure off. So, yeah. I think it's, they will definitely keep him because they don't have anything else. lined up. No point in sacking anyone because nothing is ever going to change, says David. Both Manchester teams to go down, says Real Shoal. Didn't want Carrick, but I take no pleasure in being right. I'm afraid he has to go after that, says Yoz. I didn't want Carrick and I'm not sitting here saying I told you so.
32:58I'm just not surprised where we are. What does surprise me is that we got here this quick. I think it was inevitable we were going to end up here because Carrick worked with Oli. It didn't work with Oli. And then we go and get Carrick as manager. It was stupid. Absolutely He's survival football bollocks. And as I said, you know, the football he's trying to play, 4-2-4s, 3-4-3s, it, you know,
33:27it's like learning to run before you can walk. It really is. First super chat, Carrick needs to go. So Stephen, he's missing the skill and the tools to deliver what we demand. If that was check job interview, he smashed it. Thank you, Stephen. How is it possible that we've got an executive group with a worse hit rate on decisions than a coin toss, says James. Get Emery in and Raniuk as sporting director. We won't do that because it'll cost too much money. Seeing Carrick means some admitting the board made a mistake. If we sack him, says Azur, their collective ego won't allow that to happen. Yeah, and you know what?
34:00This is why we are screwed as fans, because we've got no power. Like, I want change because I want us to be back in the Champions League next year. But these stubborn owners with egos will be like, no, we're sticking with Michael, we're sticking with Michael. All he's got to do is get fifth. And we could still get fifth place with Carrick because City are going to get relegated. So they'll stick with Carrick out of stubbornness. But the reality is there's a very real chance that we might not. Why do you think we will win up against Bournemouth, Sussou King? because we need to win. I don't know.
34:39Get him out tonight. United need a high quality manager, not a borough rejects as S-Ban. Missing the international break where we were three weeks undefeated as BRT. Bad worker always blames his tools as Scott. Our board will take a year to find the new coach, says Anil. Look, the great thing about the coaching market is Nagelsmann's worked with Vival and is available. Conte is a short-term fixer and is available. And Eddie Howe has Premier League experience and is available. Now, I know who I'd go for, but there are three available and they'll be cheap because they're not under contract. Radcliffe told us three years for Amrim, he was gone in three months.
35:16All it took was Wilcox telling me his coach at heart to break his word. Manager aside, these people are ruining things now. Manager aside, they're running things, says Praj. Xerxi Tilleman, sure, the low and mount does not belong. We might not agree on this, but that's how I see it, says Nosk. Mark, the date Chelsea away last game for Carrick, it's Caroween. says Andy Carrick out get a real manager in there and drop Bruno he's a scrub says my best of friend we were run better by Glazers than Ineos the sporting organisation says Mirror get rid of him immediately it can't go on any longer it's just going to get worse it ain't going to get better says Man United Hodge what did Carrick learn from Oli's downfall nothing says Marble and granted Carrick is out of his depth but he knew this would happen board and owners need to go Ranjik for director of football we need to remember why we're here says Tom relegation battle around the corner as gentle.
36:06Sack Carrick and hire him back as an interim, says Ash. Forget Conte, I'd go for Antonio, the Conte, the cone at this point, says Matt. Tell us. Carrick's a great player, but he's a soft touch in management. He avoided making decisions that would upset anyone. You can't be a people pleaser as a manager, says Thesp. And don't think he will resign because he might forfeit the payout. He's not resigned, Cal. It was just some joke in the chat. Nack, says Carrick, zero out of ten. Corin says, spot on with how Amarin was treated. He's four points off the top of the Italian league with his system that was too hard for United to play.
36:41And reports circulating that Carrick resigns as Adam. Well, it's bollocks. This is clueless manager, not the players issue, says Mank. And was in year eight when we lost 4-1 to Watford under Oli. Now in uni and nothing's changed. Perfectly reflects the endless cycle the owners have caused, says Matt. United's board are meeting tomorrow morning for Hobnobs with a cup of tea, says Mojo. We suck, Mark, that's all, says last of the Redskins. and it's my birthday today. I knew Como away was going to be tough, but not whatever that was. Unbelievable. Shout out to Carrick subbing Bruno off, says Titan, and we should go get players such as Anderson, Rice and Kane would get us in a good spot, says Willie.
37:18It's a shame because I was absolutely looking forward to that game and it was absolute shit. It's not about me, says Carrick, about digesting the game and how it went. I care an unbelievable amount about the supporters. They're the heartbeats and always will be. all the travel. I can only apologise to them. No excuses at all. Well, at least, look, it's the first time he's come out and spoken sense after a match. And if he cares about the supporters, he should resign because there's no shame in not being a good manager. You are a brilliant player. Very few people are brilliant players and brilliant managers.
37:55There's no shame in not being up to the job. I will not disrespect Carrick in, you know, the way maybe I disrespect with Van Gaal or, you know, other managers. You're just not up to the job. That's fine. But move on. Move on.
38:15Yeah, that's the main thing that needs to happen. Because he won't come back from this. I think that's the big thing for me. he won't come back from this.
38:34Managers don't come back from this. Interim coach gets the job because the team played once a week and was reliant on Bruno. Gets the job and instantly has the worst start to a season in 40 years. The story is he shouldn't have got the job. He's not good enough. He was just an interim that did well but he's not a full-time coach. He's just been battered by Como. Now he might find a few scrappy results for a few months but we'll be back here at some point very, very soon. He won't come back from this. He won't come back from this. We all know he won't come back from this. We might get fooled that he can come back from it.
39:09We might want him to come back from it. I'd love him to come back from it. It's the best thing for United because you don't have to go and rebuild and buy and spend money. But he won't come back from this. It's shit. It's absolutely shit. And one of the reasons he won't come back from this is the players have got every right to blame him. If you're a Man United player, and I've never said this before, they have the perfect excuse. They were not prepared for this season. Their fitness was not at the level that it needed to be. And they have every right to say, tactically and fitness wise, you didn't prepare us for this season.
39:53and as much as you might want to drop me or rotate me or put me out of position, every game, our tactics are shit. Every game, half the team is out of position and every game, none of us are fit enough. So you can moan about players, but actually, they've got the perfect excuse. Technically, it isn't their fault. They have not been prepped for this season at all. Thank you so much, everybody, for watching. We've got a great fan forum for you. Make sure you get over there. They hadn't spoken to anyone before they got rid of Amrim, then they appointed Fletcher. What makes you think not speaking to anyone means he's safe?
40:28Sheamus. Mohawk says, I can't wait for Bayern. What would you do at this point, Marks, as last of the Redskins? Jason Wilcox won't sack Carrick because it exposes how shit he is at his job. People will keep Carrick in a job to protect themselves. Sir Jim Radcliffe needs to be wise to that. But I don't think he's very wise. Gary Neville did an interview with Sir Jim Radcliffe and asked him why he got rid of a£50 ,000 a year charity contribution to ex-players and why not run a raffle to get that money. And so Jim Radcliffe went, well, no one mentioned that before. It's a good idea. So Jim Radcliffe ain't the sharpest tool in the box when it comes to football.
41:08But Wilcox won't get rid of Carrick because it makes himself look bad. So basically, Man United at the moment isn't a football club. It's preservation of ego. Now, what I would do is remove Carrick and get Nagelsmann in. And I can do that in 24 hours. That's what a football club does. And you might go for a different manager, but we'd probably be, we would agree that we need to make a change. What United will do is preserve egos and not the club. I fail to understand how some fans speak highly of Casemiro and abuse Bruno. Casemiro was not all that at this point. I feel sorry for the players. Look, I said it and I'll say it again.
41:51Bruno Fernandes is not playing very well, but Bruno Fernandes has been the best player for Man United for many years. He got us into the Champions League. They didn't do anything in the summer. You'd be demotivated. You'd be tired. As I said, he's a guy being asked to ride two horses with one arse. It's impossible. And he's been getting away with that for years. but mentally he's probably done. Fitness levels aren't where they need to be. People jump on Bruno Fernandes. He's the only player that actually has everything you need. Lifestyle, intelligence, ability, robustness, perseverance and he's getting absolute pelters.
42:39We should have seen the end of Bruno coming and we should have built a team around Bruno. and it's like that Batman line, isn't it? Live long enough to be a hero and you'll be a villain or whatever it was. This is not on Bruno Fernandes. This is on Wilcox, Ineos and the Glazers for the big decisions they've made. Right, fan forums on. Get yourself over there. Thanks everyone for tuning in tonight. I will speak to you at 10 o 'clock tomorrow morning unless something happens before that, which I doubt it will. Get yourself over to the fan forum and have your say. But for me, Carrick needs to go.
43:13sooner rather than later for everybody.
