1:24Hello everybody, welcome to the United Stands. I'm Mark Goldbridge. This is your latest Manchester United news and transfer news with only really two days, a day and a half left of this transfer window. Are United about to do some stuff? Well, Carrick's transfer warning maybe doesn't fill us with confidence going into these final two days and we've got players like Joshua Xerxi rejecting loan deals. I mean, how do you reject a move out of Man United when no manager has valued you? We've made 10 subs in the last two games. You've not started. You've not come on. And you're still sat there loving it at United.

1:59It's strange. It's just strange to me. I mean, what goes on at Man United? Is it like the brand deals? Is it the growth of your socials? I mean, go and play bloody football, mate. I mean, go and play football. If he's still here on Wednesday morning, it's shocking to me. It really is. But look, before we get into the show, lots to get into. I want to talk about Glazenomics. I want to talk about what we can do. I want to talk about what Carrick said. I want to get into your comments. But first and foremost, Ipswich win. Good news. Great news. Happy, happy, happy, really happy. But because we've got two days left of the transfer window, we can't really dwell on that too much.

2:36It's a bit like Sunday. It's your sister's birthday. That's great. But Tuesday, you're going in for a major operation. So yeah, brilliant, happy. Ipswich, great. Not taking anything away from it, but the transfer window is going to shut tomorrow. And if we lose our next two games, that Ipswich result will be one winning four. So as much as I enjoyed it and it was good and hopefully we'll build on it, these next two days are absolutely essential. So we can't just, oh, let's just chill out. We haven't got time. We've got to move forward on this. Absolutely. And we've got to get some business done.

3:08And thank you, everybody who watched the Rooney Reacts video yesterday. We did a quick match reaction because he's on holiday. And look, isn't it so refreshing when I, that wasn't scripted. That was instant reaction from Rooney. Isn't it so refreshing when he says things like, Manu's the best player on the pitch, and we all thought that as well. You know, it's, I was really, I really enjoyed it. So check it out if you've not seen that. But look, we have to move on. Let's move on. The transfer window closes tomorrow. I think it closes at 11 p.m. Some people were saying 5 p.m. I don't know. What are your thoughts on this?

3:43Well, this is what Michael Carrick has had to say. He said, I think we've done some fantastic business and we've done it very well with the money we've spent. We're making the most of the situation that we have. The spirit is good and they want to fight for each other. I think that is absolutely terrifying. I think that is a joke. I don't blame Michael Carrick, but what language is this when you've got Tottenham spending hundreds of millions of pounds, Chelsea spending millions of pounds, hundreds of millions of pounds, Liverpool are going to do it, Man City are doing it, Arsenal are doing this, five clubs spending more than us.

4:15And our manager is saying, I think we've done fantastic business in relation to the situation that we're in. The spirit is good and we want to fight for each other. We sound like bloody Crystal Palace. He sounds like he's talking like we're broke. It's terrifying. And then to add insult to injury, he went and said the words no person should ever say. Nobody should ever say this. And look, it's not anti Rashford. I thought Rashford did well yesterday. It's the words that nobody should ever say. And when somebody says it, you go, we predicted this two months ago. Always difficult to say what's going to happen with the transfer window with so little time left.

4:54pleased with the business we've done, better group, better team, and Marcus feels like a new signing. Always looking to add, so I wouldn't shut it down, but have to wait and see. He literally came out and said, Marcus Rashford's like a new signing. Our manager came out and said, Marcus Rashford's like a new signing. And you sort of like go, look, having Rashford back could work really, really well, but he's not like a new signing. He's been here since he was a kid. He's just been on loan for a year. He's not a new signing, mate. We can't, we're not going down that glazer route. So I didn't like that from Carrick because he's a United fan.

5:30He knows we'll react to that and go, what? 18, you know, a day and a half left of the window and we're using Rashford's like a new signing. He's not like a bloody new signing, is he? He's a player coming back that, you know, ultimately we're still short. We need a backup striker. So Rashford hasn't filled any hole that wasn't there anyway. The issues in the team are still there. Look, Carrick can only speak what he speaks. And I think that what you've got to look at is when he's coming out and saying Rashford's like a new signing, always difficult with so little time left in the window, we've had a good window in the situation that we're in.

6:19These are really worrying. These are warnings. These are warnings and he's not responsible for it. Marcus Rashford's not responsible for it. You're not responsible for it. The people responsible for this are the people at the top. And I think we're sort of getting from Carrick. I don't know why it says fans forum there, by the way. Sorry about that. Fucking need to wake up here. Fucking fans forum. Jesus. There's nothing that irritates me more than shit like that being left up when it should have been taken out yesterday. Do your jobs. Anyway, back to here. It's like, you know what it is like going down in the morning and everyone leaves all their cups and plates from last night that you didn't use.

7:03OCD bridge. But look, I think Michael Carrick is sending us a warning here. when he says, I think we've done some fantastic business and we've done very well with the money we've spent. We're making the most of the situation that we have and we've got to fight for each other. He's basically saying underdog mentality. He's basically saying we can't compete. He's basically saying the situation we're in, we have to make the best of it. I have got to take issue with this. I don't know about you, but I have to take issue with this because it's not what we were sold at the start of the summer. Nobody told us at the start of the summer we were going to have to sit back and watch Spurs, Liverpool, Villa, Ipswich, all these teams outspend us and we were going to go into a season where we were going to have two arms tied behind by back and be underdogs.

7:51Now, if they told us that, maybe you accept it a little bit more, but we're sort of being, my issue with it is, we're sort of being told something right at the end of the window that we've never been told. Our manager is sitting there and basically saying, look, we haven't got any money. We've just got to crack on with what we've got. But that's never been communicated to us as fans. In fact, quite the opposite. You've got David Ornstein saying, I expect Man United to spend the most. And he never got pulled up on that by the club. You've got Omar Barada talking about the title this year or next year.

8:23You've got talk of a major rebuild. You've got dream targets like Chumini and Anderson. At no point have we ever been told we're working to a limited budget until now. So I think, you know what? I think the club are taking the piss. And I think they do it to sell tickets and sell shirts. I think they know they haven't got the money. I think they know they're not going to spend the money. But I don't think they tell you because they want to mug you off. And I find it disgusting that Michael Carrick is sat there having to put out that message that, you know, in the situation that we're in, we've done quite well.

8:59And it's sort of, you know, it's going to be a tough season, isn't it? because Michael Carrick is a inexperienced coach with an inexperienced coaching team who's going to have to play a lot of games with players we don't think are good enough. We're going to be heavily reliant on Bruno Fernandes again. And I sort of feel like this season's going to be the same as last season where there'll be ups and downs, but we've basically got to defy logic. Look, on the Rooney reaction last night, we had a little chat about transfers and he doubled down on the fact that we need to bring players in. And if we don't bring players in, Michael's sort of got to do a bit of a miracle again and I sort of agree with that I do I sort of do agree with that so look it is a concern Romano is saying this morning that he still expects Man United to sign a left back I mean I actually do I don't think actually I don't think I expect us to sign a left back I demand that we sign a left back I'd have to resort to you and you would have to tell me who we're going to sign because I haven't got a bloody clue I don't know what we're going to do I mean look I was asked this question this morning about what we're going to do in the last sort of day of the window for a left back my interpretation of it is and like I say if any of you have got any different ideas get it in the chat.

10:30My interpretation of the situation is is that we have a day and a half to move on a left back that we're not in talks with. And I'll tell you why we're not in talks with anybody because we'd know. This late in the window, agents don't keep secrets and neither do selling clubs. If United had moved on Cadillaclu, Brighton and Cadillaclu's agent would put that out there to try and pump up more interest. That's what happens. It gets panicky. That's why the Mattson story came out, because we obviously approached and hit a brick wall. So what worries me is there are still people out there that think Xerxes going and we're buying a striker and a left back.

11:11And yet we're not actually publicly in talks with anybody. And it's virtually impossible to keep anything quiet. So what you've basically got to do is move quickly with no room for error. It's panic. It's panic. That's what it is. So I don't know what we're going to do because we don't like overspending either. To me, this is the worst scenario for United to be in when they need a starting left back. There's two days left of the window. We're not in talks with anybody. You'd have to overpay and you've got to get it right. And none of those ingredients fit with our football club. We don't like to rush.

11:50We don't like to overpay. And apparently we don't like to panic. So I think it's a tough one to read as to what we do. Now, it's interesting because Rags says, why don't we put a£100 million bid in for Lewis Hall? That deal wouldn't get done in a day anyway. And this is another problem, time limitations. You can't do big deals in a day and a half. Because the selling club might put up a barrier. That delays things.

12:25United are slow because everything has to go through the glazes and back down again. And the player's agent might put something up. So it's going to be a tropical sailboat. I absolutely agree. It's going to be a loan deal. It's going to be a loan deal, isn't it? And I'll tell you what, we've played two games against newly promoted teams and Luke Shaw has cost us three goals. I don't think he was at fault for... No, sorry, it's cost us two goals. I don't... Yeah, it's cost us two goals. Definitely at fault for one of the goals against Hull. Definitely at fault for the goal against Ipswich. Definitely bang average left back who needs booting out the team.

13:06So... Not only have we got our manager sat there saying, we haven't got any money, we'll have to get on with what we've got. We've also got a left back who is doing interviews after a shit performance, by the way, distracting from his own performance. I mean, to be fair, he did sound disappointed as an experienced left back about what happened. Mate, it's not even a one off. You ain't a good left back anymore. That's not if you think that's a one off, you ain't it anymore. You're done. You need to do a Gary Neville. You need to put your hands up and say, I'm not it anymore and retire. But so look, it's funny because Rooney was saying it feels like we're picking on Luke Shaw a bit.

13:46We're not picking on Luke Shaw. In fact, I've stood up for Luke Shaw most of his career at Man United when a lot of people didn't think he was good enough. We're not picking on Luke Shaw. It's like Patrice Evra said, you can like Luke Shaw, but love Man United more. We're not picking on Luke Shaw. We just love Man United more. I want a left back at Man United that's decent. He's not decent. This is not the Luke Shaw stand. This is the United stand. We're under no obligation, whether he's a nice guy or not, to put Luke Shaw in that team. This is top level sport. It's ruthless. the reason Luke Shaw played for England and Man United at one stage is because he was the best left back in England there wasn't some other shitty left back that everyone was saying let's pick him instead it's survival of the fittest you ain't it anymore and United and Carrick shouldn't be under any obligation to pick him because he's a nice guy and he's a good influence around the dressing room Ben won a title for 13 years because of nice guys in the dressing room this club needs to kick up the arse like it makes me laugh for what we celebrate.

14:48There's a load of other things that need calling out as well, but we can only deal with what we've got in front of us in a couple of days. I would say the same about right back. You know, I don't think right back is much better than left back, but we can only deal with the problems as they are there. And left back is absolutely essential that we do something about it. Somebody said Ben Jacobs said two more could be coming. Mate, right. If you're hungry and you say, I want a Nando's and a McDonald's and I turn up with some stale bread, you're still getting food. I think this is really important as well.

15:21I don't care about two more signings tomorrow if they're a bag of shit. Like, this is not about... Well, look, for you, it might be. Okay, let's be fair. Like, everyone's got an opinion. For some people, we could end up with Zinchenko on free, like Ryan says. Yeah, this is what I mean. Do not be there tomorrow glazing a bag of shit, going, wow, what a good transfer. You know, there's certain accounts on X who if we get Zinchenko and Ogalo back, they'll be going, it's an eight out of 10 window. We've solved every problem. We've got a left back, a strike. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I fully expect us to go and get a couple of bags of shit tomorrow.

16:01That's obviously slightly better than getting nothing. But come on, we're Manchester United. We need a starting left back. I mean, this situation is so similar to the goalkeeping situation yesterday. And it's so similar to the situation we have with Ronaldo under Oli. How many times are we going to keep doing the same thing where we absolutely desperately need something? We ignore it and then we end up panicking and doing it at the end of the window. I mean, we were talking about Inanna needing to go in the March. And all we got told through the summer is, nah, we're not looking for a goalkeeper.

16:46We're very happy with Inanna. Then we start the season, Behimda's shite, Inanna's shite, and then they're scrambling. Remember, it was the equivalent of tonight that we were buying Martinez. And then the next day we got Le Mans. No, it was last night, wasn't it? We did it on the Sunday, Monday. So we've been in this situation before. Instead of a goalkeeper, we've now got a left back situation where our left back's been shit for the first two games of the season. And we desperately need a left back. But everyone's been talking about it all summer. So I'm very interested in what we're going to do.

17:19I think things need to happen today. We've all experienced transfer windows over the years. You do not want to be doing. I mean, I don't even know. It's a weird window. I do think Enzo Fernandes will sign for Man City for over£100 million in the last 48 hours of the window. I do think we might see Arsenal do something in the last 48 hours of the window that are big deals. So you could do a big deal and there might be an opportunity as the dominoes come round. And United may have£40-50 million to spend on the left back and I hope we do. I'd say at this stage though I agree with Tropical that it's probably going to be a loan deal.

18:04but the worrying thing is we don't really know anything about who that could be at all at the moment on Xerxes I'm very disappointed I'm very disappointed I don't even really want to dwell on it too much because I think up front there's a bigger conversation to have when the transfer window closes I think it's becoming clear that Carrick doesn't rate Sesco. A lot of games last season, he benched Sesco when he was fit. And I think Sesco's fit and he's still not starting him. So I don't think striker is actually the priority you think it is for Carrick. I think Carrick sees Sesco as a bench player at the moment and wants to use Cunha.

18:56I don't think he wants to drop Cunha, Embermo, Ahmad or Rashford. So I I think he wants to get as many of them into his starting lineup. I think it's very obvious from Carrick. He wants to get as many game changers on the pitch as possible, which is why Luke Shaw, Harry Maguire, I think he'll keep picking them because he sees them as game changers or important players. And I think Rashford on the left, Embermo up front or on the right, Kunja I don't think Sesco I don't think Sesco's a starter so it's funny because Rooney was saying last night he really wants an out and out striker to come in like I don't even I don't even I'd have to ask him on Stick to United what he thinks about Sesco but a few times he said I really want Man United to have an out and out striker so I get the sense if he could he'd buy Harry Kane or Osman or something like that so different people have different ideas some people think we haven't got that out and out strike and want to bring it in some people want a backup striker to sesco i think the situation is that carrick sees sesco as the bench striker anyway so i don't know that we'll get a striker in maybe we will but i don't think we will i think xerxi goes and we don't bring anybody in i mean he's played no minutes so um but i'm disappointed in xerxi because he's rejected a move to fiorentina juventus was probably where he was looking to go, but apparently they're now looking at Volta Meda.

20:29And look, I understand that he might have an idea of where he wants to go, but if he's still a Man United player on Wednesday, fuck it. Look, I ain't got anything against the lad, but in fact, I've always liked Xerxi, but I don't like doing player FC. I think you have to be fair with everybody. You know, if Luke Shaw scores a hat-trick against Everton next week, I'm not going to sit here and say he wasn't man of the match. You have to do that. What I would say about Xerxes is I've always quite liked him, but this is Manchester United, mate. I don't care how nice you are. I don't care how happy you are.

21:08Right, Wayne, what are we doing here today? Filming promo for a new podcast, me and Mark Olbridge. What's the podcast called, Wayne? I don't know. What is it called? Oh, that was good. Wayne is a player. Exactly what Man United was all about. but I'm sure we're not going to agree on everything. What would you think about Mark if you were a current player? Probably think he's just... We'll be wrapped into all the games. Do you do your own painting in your house? All the big stories. Just have my socks on and my underpants. Good. Hopefully no sackings. He's gone first on Boltonham. I think we will have debates.

21:40That's why I was saying you can go first. I did. On the volley. United. Oh, that's perfect. On the pitch, off the pitch. I've got a little goal in my garden. I have a say for that to be honest Stacey United has come on to him at Manchester United you've been here for over two years now you're clearly not good enough the manager clearly doesn't want to use you leave leave like it's ridiculous to be turning down office to go and play football to sit you know to stay at Man United he's got to go he's got to go Shane says Super Chat's been censored I've not said anything offensive. Fans can't have real discussions with you like this.

22:21They're not censored, Shane. Nothing's been censored at all. So you've probably just used an abusive word or something like that. But nothing is censored. Nothing's been changed in about six years. Cadillac glue is good to go and get him. Send Rashford to Fenerbahce, says DSG. I don't really want to talk about Rashford today. I'm just going to say, maybe on the 8 o 'clock show we'll talk about Rashford. I don't want to talk about Rashford on the show today because I think we literally feed the troll. Rashford's not the troll. I think by talking about Rashford, we actually do the thing I don't want to see happening.

22:53Marcus Rashford is not the star of this team. He's just a player. And yesterday he did quite well. But I see the cameras on him. I see every journalist, every ex-player talking about him. We need to just treat him as a player. And I'm sure he would agree himself. We need to stop talking about Rashford. He did OK yesterday. Like, it is strange seeing him back at Man United when they were desperate to get rid of him. It's strange to see Barcelona signing Jesus. I don't know why they didn't go for Rashford, but we need to stop talking about Rashford and just keep it for, you know, hopefully when he starts scoring goals and stuff like that.

23:31Cadilloglu is good. Go and get him, says DSG. At the moment, thoughts on Masraoui at left back? Absolutely not. Absolutely not, JBS. No, no, absolutely not. I saw somebody last night saying, we don't need a left back. we can use Masraoui at left back and you've got Shaw as backup and we can use Yorou at right back with Deleu. And I was like, oh my God. We may as well be bloody Stoke. I mean, what the hell are we doing? No, no, we need a left back. We're Manchester United, you know, we need a left back. Xerxi rejects move to Fiorentina. He's clearly happy to sit and be a bench warmer. Needs calling out the typical modern day United player.

24:08What are your thoughts, says Smith? I'll tell you what my thoughts are. My opinion is this. United are terrible at getting rid of players. When a player signs for Manchester United, our fans go online and go, when they signed for United, they only had 100 ,000 followers on Instagram and now they've got 5 million. And we big it up. But actually, it's a big problem because their commercial activity as a Man United player will be much bigger than it will be at Fiorentina or Juventus. The money they make from being a Man United player, even if they don't play, will be massive. Now, some players go to Saudi, some people go to the MLS, some people go to China.

24:49So you can't say that every footballer is motivated by playing football. A lot of them are motivated by money. We are too nice, as Savage says. We need to be ruthless with these people. Like, if they're not part of your plans... I mean, what Mourinho did to Schweinsteiger was horrific. He stuck him training with the kids. But, like, if I've got a player, let's say Serksy, and he's not part of my plans and I need him out and he's refusing deals all over the place and then he's turning up to training, high-fiving Luke Shaw and Harry Maguire and smiling and running around. I'm like, mate, out. What do you mean?

25:25You're not part of my plans. You've had options to go somewhere. We've done it the nice way. You're not part of my plans. You're training with the kids. Well, that's not very fair. Mate, you've got offers to go somewhere. We're not under an obligation to pay you a living. I don't want you part of this squad we've been nice about it now we'll try another way so if you enjoy it being here so much having a laugh with the lads go and train with the kids I know and that's really horrible that's really horrible but certain managers and certain clubs would do that we're too nice Shank says Endia deal to Tottenham is crumbling a Saudi club came for Richarlison with big wages and he's considering Saudi which will jeopardise the Endia deal to Tottenham says Shank I actually would like to see NDIA going because I think it makes Everton an easier game on Sunday Connie says if we don't get a left back now we either need two left backs next summer or God forbid they'll extend Luke Shaw's contracts says Connie Daka says we will sign Foucault in January great player says Dak dread the day we have to find a Bruno replacement says AJ Amas is only option it's a risk but worth it, says Jay Short.

26:42Look, I don't normally give out tips, but for all the people last weekend when we lost to Hull who tried to pin it on Bruno and spent the week talking about how we're better off without Bruno, the reason I said on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday is that is ridiculous and it's going to bite you in the arse is because you're an idiot. You're an idiot to try and guess this is the downfall of Bruno. It's completely the wrong player. It's just, it's so obvious that Bruno will sit you down. Like, Bruno Fernandes can have a shit game and score a hat-trick. He didn't have a shit game yesterday, but he is so intrinsically important to Manchester United and he is so head and shoulders above anybody else.

27:27He can't be the problem. He can't be the problem. It's like having a crap Formula One car with an engine that is the best part of the car. but other cars have got a better engine. Well, the engine's not the problem. It's the best thing in our car. There might be better engines out there but the engine is the best part of our car. It's not the problem in the car. It's the wheels. It's the steering wheel. You know, he is not the problem and he will continue to sit people down who try and say he is. Carrick's words and body language tell me he doesn't want a starting left back. He wants a backup at most.

28:05Long season ahead, says Sean. Look, in relation to Carrick, Look, selfishly, I'm just very happy that we won. I haven't seen a lot of negativity after yesterday, which is good. I think sometimes as a fan base, we just need a bit of positivity and a bit of respite. And it was nice to win and score five goals. But, you know, if we're being completely honest, we'll know a lot more about us by the end of October. And I think that's when the season will start anyway, because it becomes more intense after the second international break. We have got to try and sort of do a Chelsea. We've got to try and grab as many points as we can between now and October, because that's when it will get hard.

28:56It's not hard playing Champions League and Carabao Cup football in September and the start of October because it's still a novelty. you know oh I've played 10 games oh I've played 20 games it gets hard around Christmas when it becomes relentless and your body starts to go this is a bit much um so look I think you know very very happy with Carrick but I just I said it yesterday on the watch along he seems to have imposter syndrome um which is like he acts like he's been given something he shouldn't have and he acts like he's just going to be forever indebted to the people who gave him that.

29:42And I think he might find himself in situ... I mean, Rooney said it yesterday, Carrick needs to be banging on the door today asking for a signing. He does. He absolutely does. And I think certain managers would be saying that this transfer window is pathetic. Where's my left back? But Carrick does come across as somebody that's, understandably, I suppose, indebted to the club for giving him this opportunity. And that sometimes comes across as an imposter because he's almost like, oh, I'm just so grateful to be here. That will cause him problems in the future. He's got to fight his corner. I mean, we're fighting his corner.

30:19Rooney's fighting his corner. There's other people fighting his corner. But at some point, he's got to realise he's the Magnunard manager. He's not indebted to anybody. He's got to look after himself. and not a lot of fans actually like this ownership. Not a lot of the fans like this board. So being grateful to them is probably not the best public stance. He's got to start defending himself and his interviews yesterday were a little bit like, we've just got to get on with what we've got. We'll have to wait and see what happens. Whereas I think certain managers would be, and we've seen it with Maresca and we've seen it with Iriola and we've seen it with De Zerbi.

30:57They publicly come out and said, we need more players. and I think Carrick probably should have done that but I think he's still having that sort of I'm indebted to the ownership for giving me the opportunity. You're not indebted to the ownership, Michael. They gave you the job. It's yours. You don't owe them anything. Send Rashford to Fenerbah Chase as DSG. You're obsessed with that. Dorgoo played better last year by putting him on the wing. What if we did that for left back? That being said, should we bring back Sancho and make him left back, says Zuta. Good win, but no identity, says Marlowe.

31:31Short pre-season and Alonso has already given Chelsea a clear one. Carrick is nothing but vibes and moments, says Marlowe. Emily Derry says, are we going to just skate over the fact that we desperately need a left back? Luke Shaw was awful again. He's done. I'm not willing to accept promises of Lewis Hall next summer. They are empty promises. Matty says, why can other teams sell players but United can't? And I'm not falling for cat-knit moments. Bruno was good, but we must build the future around Maynou and Kunia, says Kiel. Bruno is our only number seven. Love, stick to United, says Paul. Thank you very much.

32:01Out tomorrow morning at 8am. And we've got our first guest tomorrow on Stick to United. So make sure you're subscribing and getting your notifications on. Irish Ghost says, I want us to fail. If cheaping out on the manager and players works, the board will double down. Even wanting United is a requirement after Kunja and Mbemo were convinced to say it publicly. How on earth are we going to get a left back in 48 hours, says Amit. Thank you very much. Look, I did a post yesterday that did quite well. It was just a little bit of a comment, right? I said there's two reasons this summer transfer window has been pathetic.

32:39One of them is the glaze of debt and the excuses around not being able to spend money is because they basically make us feel like it's shared debt. and there was actually an article I want to bring this in actually it just reminded me I do really want to bring this in there was an article yesterday by Sam Wallace in The Telegraph and a couple of other journalists have written similar things and Michael Carrick is sort of saying it as well United are in a form of austerity they're attempting to recover from all those years of mistakes by signing three low-risk Premier League proven players United have settled for some stability and this is what it looks like.

33:22United are right to be cautious in a transfer market after years of mistakes. And a load of people are like, yeah, yeah, that's right. Man United, you know, we've made mistakes in the past so we've got to be cautious. And my answer to that is, what a crock of shit. What an absolute load of Glazer PR bollocks. But some of our fans are going, yes, this is, what a great article. You know, we've made so many mistakes in the past. We've got to be cautious now and cut our cloth accordingly.

35:37But it misses one key point. I don't want the Glazers in charge of my football club with a load of debt. So I don't have to sit here and say I like the cautious approach. If you like the Glazers and you like that approach, by all means sit there and cheerlead it. But most of us didn't want the Glazers. They said they were selling the club and then Sir Jim Radcliffe helped them stay. And when he did that, most of us said this is bad for the football club because the debt stays and the constant drop-off continues. So when you get these journalists and experts telling us that United's sum has been a good one because they've got to cut their cloth accordingly because of past mistakes, the only reason we've got to cut our cloth accordingly and not spend big is because we've got debt and because the club don't want to spend.

36:31But if you remove the glazes and the debt and you bring in what everyone else has got, they go, well, Chelsea is spending. Like, it's a choice. We don't have to sit and say, oh, this situation's great. This situation's fine. You know, we can't spend money. I see other content creators. I see other accounts. I see other journalists, other ex-players at Rio saying things like, you know, we're not, the standards aren't there. They're here. You've got to be realistic. You know, we're not the club we were 20 years ago. we are where we are now and we've got to build the foundations and it's going to take...

37:08No, no, no, no, no, no. I don't remember Man City building any foundations. They got a new owner. They spent money. I don't remember Chelsea building foundations. They got a new owner. They spent money. It's not about being told we've got to wait and be patient and go cheap and spend 10 years waiting to see if this crap plan's going to work. No, that's not the choice. The choice is do you want to stick with the glazers and accept this crap plan? Or do you want to say, I never wanted this in the first place? I don't want the Glazers. I actually wanted Qatar. I wish we'd got Qatar. I wish we'd got Qatar and the debt had gone and they'd built the stadium themselves and we were out here buying people like Venetius Jr.

37:47That's what I wish happened. Oh, you're a criminal. Oh, you're not a proper fan. I'm sorry. Sorry. That's what I said I wanted three years ago. And that's what I'm saying this morning. So Sam Wallace can write whatever he likes. Henry Winter can write whatever he likes Talk Sport can say what they like Gary Neville can say what he like I don't care They're entitled to their opinion But I completely and utterly argue against What Carrick said You know We've got to deal with the situation we've got No, I disagree Oh, we've got to You know, we're paying for past mistakes I disagree There's not a lot of money there We've just got to get on with it I disagree We've got to fight for fifth for 10 years while we fund a stadium.

38:34I disagree. If the Glazers sold tomorrow, someone would walk in, clear the debt, pump the money in, and it would be very, very different. And I sit on that side. I don't know why people sit there as fans and go, well, the situation is what it is. You know, we've got to be tight asses and not spend money. Nonsense. We don't. We're forced to do that because of our owners. And I think as well, the Glazers have done a brilliant, brilliant, brilliant thing where they've basically made it feel like the debt is ours. It's like walking into a restaurant, right? And you sit there and you order it. And then a family of 10 leave.

39:14And the waiter comes over and says, they've left you their bill to pay. It's very expensive. And I go, yeah, fine. It's not my debt. It's not my debt. But they make it out like it's our debt. the Glazers and Ineos have put their debts onto our football club and made us feel like it's our debt and we've accepted this for 20 years it's not our debt it's not the club's debt it's their debt and every day I see you know people who've been to fucking university and have been journalists for 20 years talking about well you know United need to do this United need to do that and they never actually call it out for what it is.

39:54It isn't our debt. We as fans behave and Manchester United Football Club behave like it's our debt. It was never our debt. We were a massively profitable football club when the Glazers came in and we've been paying the debt that they put on it to buy our football club for 20 years. And now in 2026, we've got United fans sitting there saying, well, we can't bid for Elliot Anderson and we can't bid for Morgan Rodgers and we can't spend over 70 million pounds on a player because we've got to cut our cloth accordingly. You know, it's just the way it is. We can't overpay. Hold on a minute. We can. We absolutely can.

40:30Are you going to say why we can't though? We can't though because you think the Glazer debt is our debt. And this has become part of the psychological psyche in English football, in the media, in the ex-player community, in the fan base. That's not our debt. We've not got a left back because of the Glazer debt. We can't compete with Arsenal and Man City and Liverpool financially because of the Glazer debt. But people actually think it's our debt. I'm not wrong though, am I? People think the debt's ours. It's not. It's absolutely not. And it never has been. If we could operate on our own revenue and our own profit, we'd be fucking fine.

41:12But we can't. and Sir Jim Radcliffe's exactly the same. They've convinced this fan base when your ticket prices go up, when you're buying your shirts, when we're not buying players, we're all in it together. We're all in this together. We've got to work through this together. No, no, no, no, no, no. Fuck off and let somebody come in who wants to run this football club properly because your debt is not my debt and your problem is not our problem and I don't know why we all have to get in it together and pretend that it is. The second problem we have at Man United is that the money is in the Premier League.

41:48The money is in the Premier League. So if I'm Newcastle and I want to buy a player for£70 million or£60 or£50, as long as I'm selling a player for£60 or£70 million, I'm laughing. and this circulation of money in the Premier League is really clear to see. Tottenham, Man City, Arsenal, Liverpool, they're all buying big, but they're all selling big. And there's this strange world that we're not in where Chelsea will sell to Arsenal, Liverpool will sell to Man City, but you look at the league table, hold on a minute, Arsenal and Chelsea, when they play each other, it's a very big game. They're up at the top four.

42:31Man City against Liverpool, it's a really big game. They were competing for titles when it was Klopp and Pep, but they will sell to each other. Gakpo, Havertz, Maduaki. This money circulates around the Premier League because every Premier League club is wise enough to say, we might be rivals on the pitch, but off the pitch, we're not that interested in cutting your legs off because you can have Gakpo for 85 million because we're going to go and get Barcola for 100 and Saar for 50. Yeah, we're rivals, but you're giving us good money. And Man City will go, right, we'll give that 120 to Chelsea. And then Chelsea will go, right, we'll give that 115 to Villa.

43:14The money circulates around the top clubs. Where's Man United in all of this? We're not in it. And again, people go to bloody university and they get awards for being journalists for 20 years and they can't see what's staring them in the face. Man United are not in the conversation that all the other clubs are. We're trying to loan Xerxes for 5 million euros to the Italian league where there's no money. We should be selling him in the Premier League for 40 million to Everton and we've got 40 million pounds. But we're not part of that. Everton won't do it. Why won't they do it? Because we're arrogant, we're stubborn and we've burnt more bridges than any other club.

43:57So we're not in that conversation. This is a huge failing on behalf of the board and the ownership. And who knows where that will end? But we are not in that. We are not selling in the Premier League and everybody else is. And you can look at Chelsea's spend, but their income will be huge. You can look at Man City's spend, but their income will be huge. they're buying players for 115 million but they're selling players in the Premier League for 50 60 70 80 we're not in it we're not part of that conversation and I was speaking to an agent about this yesterday and they basically said what like what we were talking about two days ago United are their reputation is horrific they're seeing they walk around like their their shit don't stink and every other club just goes, what a bunch of morons and just does business amongst themselves.

44:53But not only that, not only that, United walk around saying we're not going to overpay as well and we're not going to do this. So everyone just goes, fuck you. You're not going to overpay for Mateus Fernandes. Fine. We'll take 85 million from Spurs and then Spurs will sell a play here. We're just, we're not, we're not, we're not part of these conversations. And I exclusively think that last three minutes is ours, this community. I think I've not seen anybody anywhere in the world, in the media, in any other part of the fan base. I've heard nobody mention this at all. And it's absolutely obvious.

45:37Every other club in the Premier League is circulating hundreds of millions of pounds amongst themselves. It's almost like swap deals. Elliot Anderson goes to Man City for 115 million. But then that 115 million, Man City get back for Sabino and Mamouche. And then Forrest spend 50 to Chelsea for De Lapp. And they'll spend another bit there. This money is basically an elaborate swap deal. It's not illegal. They're not doing anything wrong. They're just working together to keep the money in the Premier League. instead of chucking it to Spain or Portugal or whatever like that, they're circulating this massive wealth amongst each other and everybody wins.

46:22Everybody wins. You know, Aston Villa get£117 million for Morgan Rodgers, but you get Gannaccio and Nicholas Jackson for a combined£100 million, which goes back to Chelsea. All this is going on and United are going, we're not working with you, we fell out with you, we're not paying that. and we end up being idiots. No one's talking about the fact that Man United are not in the Premier League money merry-go-round. And it hurts. It hurts us. It hurts us big time. And that's why I've not got a left back. That's why we've not got a striker. Comments are being censored. I've done that one from Shane.

46:58I don't know what he's talking about. If you don't overpay, you ain't a part of the loop, says Kyle. But you're not really overpaying either. You're not really overpaying, are you? If I pay£117 million for Morgan Rodgers, but I get£50 million for DeLapp. DeLapp straight away is£20 million over price. So I can take that 20 off Morgan Rodgers. He's suddenly 95. Every deal I do, as long as it's inflated, I don't mind paying£30 million more for Morgan Rodgers if I'm getting£30 million more. I mean, look, Santos,£48 million. I worry about Santos, by the way. That's a great point brought up by me. I worry about Santos.

47:38he left Chelsea to come in and be a first team player for Man United I think he might end up being a bench player I think it's going to be really interesting to see what happens with Santos because£48 million for a Chelsea well he left because he was on the bench and at Man United he might find himself on the bench I mean look we've got competition for places he might not end up on the bench but I'd say the Labour at£70 million and Maynou are surely going to be the starters. Tillemans, I think he will try and play as much as possible. So Santos probably becomes the fourth midfielder. In which case, Chelsea have made 50 million pounds on a player that's not going to be a starter for Man United.

48:23I mean, hopefully, look, I want Santos to do well. That's not my point. My point is Chelsea got 50 million pounds for a player that probably won't start for us. So they've made good money on him, haven't they? yeah. But anyway, look, let me get back to your comments. We have got two days left in this window, but I think that last 10 minutes sort of explains why we are where we are. There's this PR that the media facilitate that it's our debt and it's not, and we should all share it and it's not fair. And I'm also, you know, we're not part of this merry-go-round. we're just not Juventus have made an offer to Man United for Xerxes the player is open to joining them hopefully he goes yeah hopefully he goes what did you think about Neville's comments I think he said something about the defence waiting to build the defence until next summer he's not happy with the defence just from what no private conversations Just what I've heard from everything else.

49:38Yeah, I don't think he does like defenders. I just read something from Swedish Rumble about whether Man United have spent what they could have spent this summer. Swedish Rumble is very good at breaking down the financial stuff. He's just put his post out on X, actually. Basically, what he's saying is that, yes, Manchester United could have spent a hell of a lot more money this summer and have chosen not to. The financial fair play limits, the cash flow, there was definitely the capability to spend a lot more money and they haven't done it. But they don't communicate with us, do they? So, you know, we don't end up with...

50:23Yeah.

50:35That.

50:39Are you worried about Luke Shaw being injured? No, I'm worried about him starting games.

50:47That's my big worry.

50:55Yeah, I mean, am I worried about the defence?

51:01I liked what we did defensively and I've got to doth my cap. This is why I like talking to ex-players because what they can tell you that we don't know is the stuff that goes on in the dressing room and the stuff that goes on at the highest level on the pitch. And I remember speaking to Wayne after the whole game last week and he wasn't happy with Maguire and Heaven saying they've got to leave the press. They've got to push from centre-back. and in the second half yesterday, look how high Martinez and Maguire were. It was brave, it worked, but obviously against better teams, if we press that higher, that high up with Maguire and Martinez, who aren't quick.

51:46I mean, people criticise Maguire for being slow. He's always been slow, but so is Martinez. Martinez is not quick at all. Mark doesn't like Xerxi. You know what? I actually got tagged in something today that somebody sent me that apparently I gave Maynou no praise after the match yesterday and I've always hated Maynou. And I'm sort of like, this is the hilarity of social media. Like, it just makes me laugh. I've always liked Xerxi, but it's time for him to go. And I don't like the fact, If he's still here on Wednesday, I won't like Xerxi. Let's put it that way. But I don't know these people individually.

52:31This is footballers. This is like Xerxi, the Man United footballer. I don't know him as a person. So how can you dislike somebody that you don't know? I think people get really strange in football when it's their player being scrutinised. Like I've never met Marcus Rashford. I've never met Bruno Fernandes. So how can I hate or dislike them? We're talking about them as footballers. Do I like Joshua Xerxes, the Man United footballer? I was hopeful it was going to work. It clearly hasn't. If he leaves in the next 48 hours, I like him. I wish you all the best. If he's still here on Wednesday morning, I think he's a waster and he's taking the piss.

53:13So it's all about the footballer, isn't it? It's all about the footballer. Look, in relation to Luke Shaw, I backed him for years. I thought he used to get a lot of unfair criticism about his weight, about his ability. And I always thought he was a brilliant player. But the same thing happened with Rooney. Look, I've said it to Wayne. I've said at the end, I think you fell off massively and I wanted you to leave. I was actually quite happy when you went to Everton. But you're a legend of this football club. And, you know, he was absolutely fine about it. And then we spoke about Gary Neville against West Brom.

53:48Gary Neville was shit against West Brom. He's one of our best ever right-backs. Football ain't forever. If you're lucky, you do your career, you have the adulation and you get out at the right time. Look at Ronaldo's end at Man United. He ends up doing an interview with Piers Morgan. So there is a time in a footballer's career and agents should be all over this. There is a time to protect your legacy and get out. And I think with Luke Shaw, that time was this summer. I think he should have been wise enough to go, I'm going to get exposed next season. But he's got a big, big contract, hasn't he?

54:27He's got a big contract. And I said this on the Watch Along yesterday. Certain players see Man United as a meal ticket. They use the club for their own personal selfish needs. People used to use the club as something they respected. So when Gary Neville played against West Brom and he wasn't good enough, that's it. I can't do a service to this football club anymore. My standards don't meet the standards of this football club anymore. We've now got players in our team who will keep playing, even though they're shit, for their own needs. And this is why I was arguing last week about that stupid comment from Rio Ferdinand saying that we need to lower our standards.

55:05When you lower your standards, you end up with Luke Shaw at left back playing on for his own selfish needs. When you have standards, you have people like Gary Neville at the end of his career going, I can't meet the standards. and retiring. That's where we've gone wrong. The standards of this club have come so low that people will just keep playing now. And some of us hold on to those standards. Sad to see that you're ignoring constructive criticism from facts. Shane, I don't know what you're talking about here. Comments are not being censored, Shane. You've tried to get hold of the comment. You've tried to drop us an email.

55:41I don't know what you're talking about. But you've done two super chats with loads of words in them and yet you're pretending that you're being censored. You're not being censored. Write what your problem is in your super chat because it won't be censored. Sorry about shame this morning. Strange interjection twice. We also can't sell in the Premier League because the players aren't good enough, says Connie. Yeah, I don't agree with that though, Connie, because Liam De Lappe shit. You know, Savinho is not an£80 million player. You can sell in this market if you've got good relationship. Villa were tentatively interested in Xerxi.

56:18So you can sell in this market. We just burnt the bridges. What got me thinking there, next spin will be we are stacked against the odds before everyone else is working together. So we struggle, says Seth. Thank you very much for that. How good was Maynou, says Zen. He was absolutely brilliant.

56:46Appreciate that.

56:51United always say they want players who genuinely want to play for them. So if a player chose United for that reason, why leave just because he's benched? Wouldn't he stay and fight for his place, says Nicker? Great show this morning. There is no bomb. But look, I'm hoping, logically, today is a bank holiday in the UK, so it's like a Sunday. But logically for me, something has to happen today. Like if we're going to do something, something happens today. It's very rare that you're going to do anything significant in the final day. So let's wait and see. Ricky said that Luke Shaw is the best left back.

57:29Mate, I love Ricky. I've got no interest in anything he says about Luke Shaw anymore because he just won't see sense. So you just end up irritating yourself. Luke Shaw is a bag of shit. We all know it. He needs to retire. from being our starting left back. Look, give him a season as a backup, but we need a starting left back. Absolutely. Take care, everybody. Stay safe. And Chunky says, very interesting take on the transfer roundabout. I'm stunned that we as a community have uncovered that obvious issue. We are not in it. I see all this money circulating around the Premier League and Liverpool doing a deal with Man City.

58:12They're rivals, but they don't care because that's 85 million coming in here. That's 100 million going to Chelsea. That's money coming in here. It just circulates and it benefits everybody in the Premier League to keep the money in the Premier League. And we're not part of it because we're arrogant, stupid and incompetent. Take care, everyone. Stay safe. I'll speak to you on the next one.
