1:30Hello, everybody. Welcome to the United Stand. Manchester United have won a game of football from 2-0 down. We've done a Brighton at Old Trafford, literally 2-0 down, 3-2. And doesn't it feel nice to have a break from losing? And we needed to win that game. I said it in the preview. It really didn't matter whether we played total shit and won 1-0 with a dodgy penalty. We'll take it. It wouldn't matter. But actually, I thought the second half, I mean, it's funny, isn't it? You do tend to get proven right. And I think one of the big questions I would pose is, and I think I'd probably run a poll on this in the live chat, is should Carrick stay?

2:13Does this change your mind about that? Does it make you feel like Carrick should stay? Let me know. We will answer that question in a moment. But one thing I've been saying, I'm no fan of the players. I think the players over the years have been, you know, not good enough for Manchester United. But what I didn't like, and I'm going to say it right at the start of this show, I saw ex-players at the start of the show going in on Martinez and Martinez being scapegoated. And last week, the players being booed, but the coach being cheered. I don't agree with this. I don't agree with the players are responsible for where Man United are.

2:50I think the people who are responsible are the owners and the board. And we keep making this same mistake of blaming the players and blaming the players. But that second half was the players. I didn't see any coaching there. I saw Lacey come on, who Carrick's ignored for two months and changed the game. I saw Cunha play a man-of-the-match performance, and he's been benching him and not using him since Rashford's comeback. So ironically, it's two players he's been ignoring that have saved him, really. So we talk about, oh, Carrick and coaching, but it's two players that he's basically been ignoring for others that have kept him in a job.

3:29And that's the ironic thing about football. So I don't blame the players. I think if Kunja couldn't have been asked today and thought, fuck you, we would have lost. I think if, you know, if he hadn't brought Lacey on, which he's got to be given credit for, we might have lost. So and also I think the biggest thank you of the evening goes to Roma. I mean, I ain't going to forget Roma in a hurry. I'd heard things about Roma. And when they were 2-0 up, I was like, if they were at the Emirates, they'd park the bus and take the win. They kept playing open football. And I think that gave us an opportunity as well.

4:01So Roma played their part as well. So look, I mean, look, it's great to win a game of football. That third goal by Kunja was a fantastic goal. I think it's Lacey, Maynou, Kunja. I mean, maybe the keeper could do better, but it's a rocket from Kunja. He's jumping into the crowd. It's great to see. It's been a long time since we've seen stuff like that. And I mean, look, you'll take any win. You'll take any win. I think at halftime, we could have been 4-0 down. Le Mans makes a brilliant save from Mallon at 2-0. I think they messed up a couple of other chances. We had no chances in the first half.

4:32So we could have been 3 or 4-0 down at halftime and it was over. So to have that opportunity in the second half, and I felt it was coming. I said it at the start of the half. I felt like the players sort of came out with a bit of an intensity. Roma looked a little bit open and it was a long half and we did get the win and I think a lot of people didn't see it but some of us did I think it was there and we grabbed it and we weren't even attacking the straight foot end were we in the second half so I think it was some good performances I'm looking forward to doing the player ratings because I think it's three or four players that actually did do quite well and look let's not forget the reason we were 2-0 down is because of Carrick and his bloody tactics anyway I thought it was ridiculous what he was doing with Deleuze and Deleuze was shit all night I mean, I don't know what we're trying to do with the low, but we're obviously not trying to use him as a left back.

5:19And it was a bit all over the place. And also, did there's a few? Look, Roma playing open definitely helped us and credit to Roma. They're going to be a good team to watch, but maybe they should be a little bit more disciplined when they're winning 2-0. I think they did the same thing against Real Madrid a few weeks ago when they were 3-1 up. It's the second time they've squandered a two goal lead. but what some people are not going to talk about is I actually think Balaba's injury helped us I know it's sad to see Balaba go off but I don't think he had a very good game the amount of misplaced passes it was a bit chaotic in that midfield as soon as Tillemans came in him and Mainu sort of got hold of that midfield it was far more disciplined and I know we didn't have any pace in there but neither did Roma Roma didn't have pace in their midfield so So Tillemans and Mainou worked really well.

6:11And we actually grabbed hold of the midfield from the point Baleba came off. So it's weird because I would always say you've got to play Baleba with Mainou. But actually in that game with so much space, Tillemans and Mainou actually work quite well. So, look, it's important to win a game of football. And the players have had a lot of criticism. Tonight, I would give credit to those players that played well. Mainu Yoro Kunia Embermo Lemens I think they all had good games Lemens made a very very good save And I'm not saying anybody had a really bad game Apart from Dullo But You know You've got to give the players some credit And you've got to give the fans some credit as well I mean a lot of people said The fans are the problem Cheering the players They didn't cheer the players at half time They booed them And in the second half When you Are spending that money To go And watch Man United On a Tuesday night In the cold travel, some of them from around Europe, some of them from around the country, why would you begrudge them getting entertained and celebrating goals?

7:15So I was really pleased for them because they deserve it. And it's been a long, long time coming. So yeah, look, we had to win that game as well. I think when you look at the Champions League positions now, and it's a stark thing to look at. We're into 17th place with that win, two wins and two losses. And also, if we'd lost that game, we'd be on three points and we wouldn't be in the top 24. We'd be out of that area and we've got some tough... We've got Sporting to play, they're sixth. We've got Bayern Munich to play, they're in the top eight. We've got Leipzig to play and we've got Villarreal to play.

8:01So we've got some tough games to come. We had to win that game. We had to win that game. Now, the big question is going to be, what does it do for Michael Carrick? I think Carrick survives now. I think Carrick survives now. I think we almost had that message at the weekend after Chelsea that they're not planning on making a change. And I think as long as he won one of the games between Roma and Villa, He was going to keep his job. And I don't think we'll lose to Villa on Sunday anyway. So, yeah, I think Carrick will continue in the role now. I think he just needed to win one out of Chelsea, Roma and Villa and they would have kept him.

8:43And I think they will keep him now. So, yeah, look, ultimately, you might not like that. but Omar Barada, Jason Wilcox, Sir Jim Radcliffe, the Glazers, these are incompetent people. I mean, we literally saw in an article yesterday that Wilcox suggested Russell Martin. This is not a guy who should be anywhere near Man United Football Club and Omar Barada recommended Jason Wilcox. So what do you think people who are making decisions like that are going to think about Michael Carrick beating Roma? They're going to think we've got the right man. So he's going to be here for however long. The reason I wanted Carrick to go and I would still get rid of Carrick is because I think if we got rid of him, we could still rescue this season.

9:38My fear with Carrick is he gets a couple of these types of results, but fundamentally, we're still not going to win enough games. we don't get into Europe and it's going to fuck us up in the summer. This season's going to go wrong. That's my fear. I said before the game today, like we can't keep losing. Even Wolves last season, when they were losing every week, still suddenly find a result here and there. But I don't think the trajectory is going to go up. I didn't see anything tonight that made me think we're suddenly going to be a good team. What I saw tonight is a Roma side that played ridiculously open.

10:15and probably could have won the game if they didn't. But respect, that's the way they want to play. It's very entertaining. I think when we come up against teams that don't play like that, then we will start losing games again. But yeah, I wouldn't be starting to think about an international break and change of manager. I think that they're going to persevere with this, rightly or wrongly. And look, I've said everything I've said about Carrick. I would sack him. I don't think he's up to the job. but that doesn't mean it's going to happen. I don't think it is going to happen.

10:53I might be wrong. I might be wrong. Maybe we'll go on an amazing run of results now. And I certainly enjoyed Man United winning. It's going to be a nice feeling for the next few days. And hopefully we can do it against Villa as well, because we bloody need three points in the league. But I don't think they're going to sack him. I think they're going to stick with him. and I think that will ultimately be a mistake because I don't think he's good enough for the job and I think we saw that in the first half I mean it was very like Chelsea actually but the other way around against Chelsea in the first half thought we were good and in the second half thought we were terrible and in this game I think we were terrible in the first half and we were good in the second half so I suppose we're at that crossroads really aren't we are we going to turn it into a good 90 minutes or is it going to continue to be a bad one so yeah I mean there's some good questions here.

11:43Don't you feel like that could be the spark? I think it's a great question. I think we need to hope it's going to be a spark because the club's not run by intelligent people. So they're going to think it is a spark. And if it's not a spark, we're going to lose a lot this season. Do I think it can be a spark?

12:07I think the players are playing for him. I think the players are playing for him you can't say that they're not because if they're not playing for him why would you do that so I think the players are playing for him I think we will get results like today I think it's incredible the bad run we've been on I always thought it would be a rollercoaster this season with bad results and good results and I think we will get some good results but ultimately we've still got to go to Anfield we've still got to go to the Emirates we've still got to go to the Etihad, we've still got to go to Newcastle, we've still got to go to Tottenham, we've still got to go to Brentford, we've still got to go to Bournemouth, we've still got to go to Brighton, we've still got a lot of games where I just don't think we're good enough.

12:52And I go back to that first half and it was such a bad half. like the intensity wasn't there but that first goal when Deleu is so far forward and we concede and you're losing your shit about it and then five minutes later he's out of position again that's not Deleu wandering off like a naughty dog that's Carrick telling him to stay high so we can play three at the back and we're getting exploited again so those sort of coaching decisions concern me because it's trying to run before you can walk I also thought in the first half half, all we did is kick long balls. Now, where I will give credit is in the second half.

13:36In the first half, we couldn't create anything against an open Roma side. And in the second half, we suddenly started creating things. So there was some tactical switch at half time. You have to acknowledge that. And if we lose that game, we're all here saying, get rid of Carrick. We've won the game. You've got to acknowledge. You can't blame the coach for losing and then not give him any praise for winning. I'm dead against that. So something changed at half time. And I think it was, I can only look at it from my point of view. I would, what I would have said at half time is, trust yourselves on the ball.

14:14Like we've got the ball, they're setting their shape and all you're doing is knocking it long into Embermo who can't hold it up. Trust yourselves. There's so much space. Trust yourselves on the ball and play through them and you will get space in the final third. And we started to do that. So I would imagine it was as simple as stop kicking it long and start moving the ball into the space. And we saw that with the third goal. Roma, I can't believe it. There was just so much space out there. And you have to applaud it because it helped us back into the game, but it was probably a little bit naive.

14:51But if that's the way they play, that's the way they play. I don't think it was a penalty, but sometimes you need a bit of luck. And maybe we haven't had a bit of luck this season when you think about Haaland's goal and maybe other things. I thought the third goal was fantastic. I think the second goal was a little bit lucky. But you need a bit of luck. We've not had much luck this season and yeah I think it was a I think it was it felt like a result for us because whatever happens we want to try and keep the season alive if they're going to stick with Carrick then we need this season to stay alive and I think in the Champions League we need to try and get through to the next stage and to do that we had to win tonight I would look at that group stage now with six points.

15:39And I think somewhere around 13, 14 points will put us into a qualifier, maybe even 12. So two wins from Sporting, Leipzig, Bayern and Villarreal. And I think we should be fine. So, yeah. And we, you know, we deserve it. I hope Carrick and the players come out and say that's for the fans because we fucking deserve it. It's been a shit last few weeks. You know, maybe Jason Wilcox will run out and do an interview now. We've won a game. But yeah, let's do the play ratings. Then I want to get into some of your comments. Oh, before I do that, a bit of a poll going on. Should Carrick stay? 29 % saying yes, 71 % saying no, which to be fair is not much different from after Chelsea where it was 25 % saying yes and 75 % saying no.

16:26So a slight shift, but still the majority not totally convinced. I have to answer that question. It's preposterous. to be Carrick out before this game and then change your mind just because we come back from 2-0 down against a wide open Roma. If he can go and win against Villa and then against Liverpool, I would start to go, okay. I would start to think maybe.

17:00But, you know, it's 45 minutes and we need to see a lot more than that. Let's be honest. If you have a cat, you've probably wondered what your house smells like before guests walk in.

19:01I could give Lemans a seven. I mean, look, I suspected people might give him a lower score, but I genuinely think you're doing a misservice to that save from Malone. I mean, Malone takes that so early, but he's having such a good season. He takes it early. It's low. It's in the bottom corner. Keeper's not got time to set himself. Yes, it's from distance, but it's a big save. And what I liked about it as well, and, you know, Anana and some shit goalkeepers can't do this. not only was it a big save, he got it away from Danger out for, I think, for a corner as well. So I think that save was pivotal.

19:34Pivotal. And I don't think he could have done anything on the penalty. I don't think he could have done anything on the other goal either. So I think Lomens had a good game. I'd give him a seven. Again, you know, Yoro, I thought Yoro, even in the shit games, has been doing well. I don't know why we don't use him at centre-back, because the way he plays at right-back, I don't really think he is a right back, but I think it was a strong seven from me. I thought Yoro played well. Maguire. Look, I think Maguire in the second half, when we got him into their penalty box, was a real threat. Like Harry Maguire of last season.

20:13Defensively, I think he struggles this year. So I'd probably give him a sort of six for me. Heaven struggled. He did struggle. but I do think I would give him a six for the simple reason that I don't think that if we'd played Martinez we'd have been in a good position because I think we needed a bit of pace I mean Deleuze I've got to go two I think you're being generous with the three I've got to go two I mean at nil-nil he misplaced about six passes then he costs the first goal out of position. Then he costs us the second goal out of position. A couple of times he gets forward and he's hitting the ball into the side.

21:01I just don't, I just don't, I don't, apart from, I will always say this about Deleuze. It's not personal. I think he cares about the club. He never stops running. When the label was on the floor, he was there like Captain Deleuze, patting him on the back. And he really wants to be a leader. But he's a milk monitor because he's not good enough. And he wasn't very good. I thought he was dreadful tonight. I'm sorry. I'd love to give him a higher score, but I thought he was absolutely dreadful. And that's on the board, by the way, for not buying a left back. Manu, I thought, was good. Seven, composed.

21:36I thought he was... Obviously, the first half was a bit shit, but second half was very good. And he wasn't awful in the first half. But, you know, Manu had a big part to playing that third goal as well. We miss Manu. He's our best midfielder. I'd give him a seven. Balaber, I actually thought, was probably a 5.5, other than being honest. Some of his passing was dreadful. I said this when we bought him. When he was at Brighton, he was averaging 30 passes per 90. People like Tillemans and Mainu and Casemiro will be about 50. And I think some people thought, well, that's because he doesn't want the ball.

22:11Part of it is because when he gets the ball, he tries a pass and he misplaces it because that's not a completed pass. So I think he could be out for Christmas now. that that injury unless he over overplayed it which i don't think he did that looked like a very severe hamstring um six seven eight weeks so that's going to be a blow for us in that midfield because he's the quickest midfielder we've got uh could be mason mount back in the midfield uh and burmo would give him a 6.5 he never stopped running um i'm happy with him burmo this season i think he gets a lot of stick but i think he offers a lot of threat and um you know unfortunately he didn't really get the chances today, but I think he's, in the absence of a striker, he's all we've got.

22:56Bruno, I mean, look, the first penalty was dreadful and he's very lucky to get to take that again. Apart from that, I would say it was decidedly average. I mean, we're talking about our best player here and whilst it wasn't dreadful, I don't think it was very good. I'd give him a 5.5. Ahmad I mean I thankfully I'm on the right side of history here I've always been a big fan of Ahmad but what I will say is and I've woken up to this recently he has

23:40been dreadful in relation to final ball for a very long time and it does need calling out. And somebody in the club, whether it be Carrick, Steve Holland, needs to work on it and he needs to work on it because we're Manchester United. You look at people like Elise, Mo Salah, even people like Harvey Barnes, there's an output. And as a winger in a Premier League side, look at Mbamo at Brentford. Goals, assists. Ahmad is in a privileged position as a Man United winger and his output is abysmal. Now, I like Ahmad. but we're not a charity. No goals, no assists most weeks. It's not good enough. When Marcus Rashford's on the left, people are telling us that after two or three games.

24:28Oh, no goals or assists for Rashford since he came back from Barcelona. Well, I'm sorry. We need to have these types of compositions. We have them about the manager. We can have them about the players. Ahmad's output is terrible. Don't dislike Ahmad. No hate on Ahmad. but there's a good player there but if you've got no output as a wide player what's the point? So, you know, he needs calling out for it 4.5 for me. Kunja, probably man of the match. You've got to give him an 8. You can never... I understand why people don't like Kunja by the way. I imagine he's quite irritating to rival fans but I like these sort of players.

25:11The Rudigers of this world because he's our player and, you know, the shit house player. Definitely think it was a dive, but he's quite good at that. And I think it was hard for the referee to tell. And that changed the game. I think at 2-0, you need something to spark it and he sparked it. So he wins the penalty. He scores the equaliser and he scores the winner. I mean, eight seems like it might be a little bit low, but in the first half I don't think he really did a hell of a lot but what I want to say here is is how the fuck have we taken a player that is a match winner and across the summer decided to basically bench him and it's taken till November for us to actually start getting the best out of him I think Carrick needs to look in the mirror tonight about this because he had Kunja in a good position and got into third place.

26:16And over the summer, something changed. And for the last two months, it's been baffling as to why he's not on the team or he's out of position or he's on the bench. Like, Kunya was motivated in that second half and that's what happens. He's involved in all three goals. Albeit, he did take a bit of a tumble on the first one, but we got the penalty. I mean, Kunya's basically rescued Carrick. and he should be very grateful for Kunya because I don't think Carrick has reciprocated that with him over the last couple of months you know he's had him out of the team for Ashford he's had him he's been subbing him off sometimes mount you know so I think Kunya man of the match for me Tillemans came on and did quite well he's had a lot of stick I sometimes confuse as to why we bought him but a very Villa type performance from Tillemans today it was tidy I'd give him a 6.5 Lacey off the bench, 7.5 for me.

27:10I mean, I just think it's glazing him a little bit. It's overhyping it a little bit, but that's what we need. There's not a lot to be excited about with United. It's been very disappointing this season, but he scored a goal in the last Champions League game at Old Trafford and we haven't bloody seen him since. I don't understand it. He is literally a get out of jail card from Michael Carrick. Like, if you feel like you're going to lose your job or something's going bad, this guy can come on and make fans like you, like, and support you. He's got to use Lacey against Villa. He's got to use him against Villa.

27:48You can't pick Ahmad. You've got to pick Lacey. And maybe we win the game. Martinez, I mean, whatever. Six. Six. Six. Carrick, I mean, look, if he loses that game, we're talking one or two or three, aren't we? at half time we're talking one or two or three aren't we but we've turned it around very Cunha inspired but I would still be

28:20open enough to say that in the first half we didn't have a fucking clue what we were doing the tactics were shit we were hitting the long ball and in the second half we stopped hitting the long ball so something was said in that dressing room and you've got to presume it's by Carrick So I'd be happy to give him a six, I think, in relation to that. Give him some credit. Man of the match, Cunha, 80%. Shea Lacey, 12%. And Lenny Oro, 4%. I think we can all live with that. So well done on that. I'm being told that Bruno Fernandes has said something. So let me just have a look at that.

28:58The Stretford End chant Michael Carrick's name as he leaves. Well, let's hope they're right. let's hope they're going to be right.

29:10Everyone felt that... Oh, here we go. Bruno Fernandes. Everyone felt that being benched was a punishment for the words I said. And if it was, it was right. The manager is the one that makes the decisions. I have to go forward with that. And it doesn't change the belief I have in the manager, the staff and every player in this club. And it doesn't change my aim to win every fucking game ahead of me. I mean, look, I like Bruno. He's not playing very well. but, you know, it's very easy to come out and be the big N when you've won a game of football. And, you know, we've seen this for years at Man United.

29:47They'll all be on Instagram tonight, winning team photos. When Man United win, everybody comes out the woodwork. Like I say, I wouldn't be surprised if Jason Wilcox came out and did something now. As United fans, you can make your own mind up. my mind is I couldn't give a fuck what Bruno says I really couldn't the most important thing was that we won the game I don't think Bruno played particularly well I don't think he was the reason we won the game I think Kunia was and it's one game we need to go and win we've won one game out of nine in the Premier League even beating Villa on Sunday we're not back you've got to go and do it against Liverpool and Brentford and Newcastle we need to go and win five of our next seven games in the Premier League just to try and get this season back on track.

30:34We've got seven points from 27. If we win the next five games, we would have 22 points from 42. Still not great, is it? So we have put ourselves in a position where beating Roma 3-2 doesn't reset the clock. We are so far behind, we've got to go and win a load of games. So back to work tomorrow. You know, back to work tomorrow. Simple as that. Let me get into your comments. If United beats Villa, United board will get credited for patience, says Andrew. Yeah, but then you come back from the international break, Liverpool beat you 4-0 and everyone's saying they're idiots again. So this is what I mean.

31:20It's don't fall for the spin. We were always going to win at some point. The question is, can we go and win again and again and again? that's what we want to see I'm happy we won tonight but I'm devastated knowing Carrick will probably stay one great comeback doesn't erase all the problems we've seen says Pistol they asked permission to talk to Pochettino says War Machine not sure about that players aren't playing for Carrick if we beat Villa I hope you apologise sorry Rash says players aren't playing for Carrick eh Mark if we beat Villa I hope you apologise I think I've just answered that previous question for this moron yeah good win In still moments football, none of these goals come from reputable patterns of play, says USB.

32:04Mate, I've watched lots of Man United this season, as I'm sure many of you are. If Roma had come out in the second half and said, let's be compact and counter, we lose that game. Incredibly, they came out and played like they did in the first half, wide open space. And, you know, we thankfully exploited it. We lost by five, four days after Atalanta in 2021, says Marble. this win is like trying to paper over the Crank Ganyan with an Andrex role I know this win is a quick Doug mean hit for his fans but let's not lose sight of the reality we're still a mess says Urfan I reckon we won this game because United were offering lovemaking after the game Mark says Lewis Yoro, Cunyre and Lacey man of the match but Yoro says Neg what is going on between Cunyre and Carrick says Judd I don't know I hope Lacey becomes the great player he can be but our team sucks at developing says Keita and Bermot is missing far too many chances says Shan changes nothing seen enough times remember Leon says Delon sack and we get Howe and Tyndall even worse says Daniel would you be happy if United only signed Fernandes and Tillemans this summer says Gorzilla strange one you should watch Bruno's post-match interview swore and called out media lies says Lodge yeah but I know what the lies are I've read this so basically Bruno said it was lies that he was dropped because of what he said and he was dropped for performance I mean fucking hell who gives a shit whether you got dropped for performance or you got dropped for what you said who cares it's worse getting dropped for performance surely i don't care he got dropped you know can keep can keeping him through this stock player power says ryan but i don't think it is player power it depends whether you think i don't think it is player power i think it's bad tactics and bad signings i don't i don't think player power is why we've lost games because it's the same players that got him the job i i i fundamentally don't think the players are good enough, but I don't think it's player power that's getting him sacked.

33:57Don't know if I'm overacting, but I think Mainu is more important than Bruno, says Joff. Is it true Favell's going to Bayern on a free? I hope not, but I have heard it. No Premier League team plays like this yet. We needed magics as Hitton. Five minutes in, I said Dullo in midfield. Coaches tactics as real life. Mark, have you seen Kunye was fuming at Carrick after the game and Carrick said something to him with congratulating him? I haven't seen that vision. This feels good, but I won't let this guy get in the way of reality. We're not going to be able to stay this energetic on Sunday. Injuries are inevitable, says Hitton.

34:31Rosemary, welcome to the Members Club. Thank you very much. I hope this gets the boys on track. Tired of losing, tired of sacking managers and tired of starting over every couple of years, says Christopher. I think it's really important we beat Aston Villa. Because I think with this win, they won't sack him in the international break anyway. So let's beat Villa and get three points on the table. Enjoy the win. says Big Steve. Completely agree. I hope this... Thank you very much, Christopher. Coaching is evidently very poor. It almost seemed like the players were sorting it out for themselves on the pitch.

34:59At the end of the day, a win is a win and we needed that, says Mojo. Completely agree. Bruno's doing a great interview right now, says Only United. Where was this intensity in the first half? They can have the intensity. I think the losses are more psychological than technical, says Addy. Can you pick my lotto numbers? As you said, United would win, says TSG. One win shouldn't be enough to let this utterly incompetent board off the hook. The pressure needs to stay firmly on then, says Eb. The haters all coming out. Let us have this clown, says Judge. A fitting title now stuck with Carrick for the whole season.

35:29United play like amateurs, get a proper coach with good tactics. Gasparini teams are so open, says Albert. Carrick told Kunja to stop celebrating and go down the tunnel, says Mr. Ricky. Naughty time in the Stretford end today, says Last of Redskins. Great win. Really needed that. Lacey needs to play more games, says Ginger Kid. Lenny Yorrao is by far our best defender, says D. I think we may be getting match fit after playing regular weekly football. We didn't train enough before the start of the season, says Axel. He doesn't get any credit for bringing Lacey on. He should have started him. He gets criticism for not playing Lacey since he scored against Brighton, says BRT.

36:02We are fickle fan base. Carrick out. Coxie as well, says Sean. Carrick in is the reason we turned it around, says Velvet Thunder. What was that between Carrick and Kunja after the final whistle? He got furious at Carrick, says Shrey. Kunja has to start every available game. Even in bad games, it looks like he can create something out of nothing. This is real life. All this does is paper over the cracks, says Joe. Carrick's going nowhere. We've got him till at least Christmas. United fans are so easily pleased. If he somehow gets a draw against Villa, they'll keep him, says Adnan. And let him go on a run now.

36:33Let's try and be positive, says Alex. I'm so happy we won, but I find myself frustrated. How can these players turn up second half like that, but played with zero energy in previous matches, says Armin. Carrick has the audacity to look smug. His tactics are awful, says Craig. We needed the points indeed, says Scaf. Part of me didn't want to get anything from that, says Savage. No, Carrick out, says Mohamed. Damned if we do, damned if we don't. Big win today, but I still stand by Carrick being sacked. Wilcott needs to go as well, says Stu. This was win, only buys him time. Glazers out, Ineos out.

37:05Thank you, Stu. Watching United in Europe takes years off my life, says we. This game says it all. Why we need a left back. The first and second goal were given to Roma because of lack of discipline. One game, but midfield looked better, says Sean. and first time I placed the best against United and this happens, says Doe. Long way to go, but a step in the right direction, but we must carry the momentum forward, says Lewis. Sad because Wilcox and Carrick will now stay. Lacey should start above Ahmad, says Andres. And Carrick and Cunha had some heated words after the game and Cunha was very, very upset and escorted off.

37:36There's a time and place for that, says Liam. Like I said, Ahmad couldn't have done what Shea did. Let's stop playing Ahmad, says Dean. And I take it back. I told you, Mark, that Carrick is the guy to lead us. It will be our Arteta. Mark, my words were winning the league in three years. This is breaking. Well, I will remember those words if it happens. Apparently, Cunha demanded Carrick Lacey plays more after match. That's why he was animated towards him, says Maz Rawawi. Happy with the win, Mark, from the USS, says Ben. Great result, Mark. Doesn't change the fact Carrick isn't good enough, says Peter.

38:05Poor half, OK. Second half, says Oliver. And what are your thoughts on Fabregas at Como? He's less experienced, says Kazim. Well, I don't think we need to talk about the manager. because I don't think that's in the plan for the club. I'm just looking at the clip here. Kunja.

38:29Yeah, Carrick's just telling him to go, isn't he?

38:41I think, to be honest with you, in defence of Carrick, I said it at the end of the watch along, didn't I? I literally said it straight away. And maybe Carrick's like me. You've been sent off.

38:57You've been sent off. So I don't think you're meant to be on the pitch. So maybe Carrick is just saying to him,

39:07get back out. But you can understand Kunya's point of view as well because he's just won us the game. and he's just kept Carrick in the job. I mean, he won the penalty, he scored the second goal, he scored the third goal. So you can understand why Kunja wants to come back on because there's not many times in your career where you're a match winner in a European game at Old Trafford. So I think Kunja probably wanted to be there and you can understand that, but Carrick may well have said to him, get back in the dressing room, you've been sent off.

39:50Yeah, I think it might be a bit of a storm in a teacup, really. What if United have no money for a new coach? There's Will, and so even if he loses to Villa, he's 100 % staying, says Pistol. Yeah, I think as long as Carrick won one of these games between Chelsea, Roma and Villa, he was going to stay. I don't feel that if we lost to Villa on Sunday, I still think it would be fresh in the mind about what happened tonight. Yeah. Yeah. Happy with the win, Mark, but hope fans don't get carried away thinking United are back or Carrick is the answer. The board's failure haven't disappeared and one win shouldn't be.

40:26I'm off the hook. That was from Ivo. Reminds me of Ipswich game and Oli against Atlantis as Rory. Look, we'll see. I wasn't impressed with Villa against Fulham on Saturday and by the sounds of it, they've been battered by Barcelona as well. So I think Villa are very gettable. The only difference you'll have in the Premier League is that nobody is going to play like Roma when they're 2-0 up. I mean, the space out there played into our hands. But yeah, I would take this as the satisfying and needed win it is. But I definitely agree about, you know, take Cunha out of that game. We don't win it. Bruno didn't win us the game.

41:09It was Cunha. So we might... Carrick's whole SP is moments from others. Whether it be Bruno, Maguire, Casemiro, they got him the job. And Sesco. And Cunha at times. You know, you look at that Everton game. Everton were all over us last season. Cunha gets the ball. Amazing ball to Embermo. Squares it to Sesco. we win 1-0. So Carrick's whole thing is counter-attacking moments. And tonight, it worked. You know, moments worked. If he's going to survive, he's got to get back into that vibe and let's wait and see. Let's wait and see. We needed that win. That's the positive. Let's look forward to Sunday and see if it is a spark that can turn into something.

42:04Callum, welcome to Members Club. Thank you very much. and watching the match without commentary, we did nothing special. We got lucky outside the goals we scored. Did we look like scoring, says Mick. Playing Rashid, moving Kunya, not playing Sesko when fit is another coach's decision that's cost us. Changed the winning team and momentum went downwards, says Real Life. You can't come back after the red. It's a rule, says K. Stone. I literally did say that. There we go. Thank you so much, everybody, for tuning in. 70 % of you would still sack Carrick. 30 % of you are not looking to do that at the moment and you are in the majority because that's what the club are looking to do at the moment back tomorrow at 10 o 'clock thank you so much for tuning in interesting night one that we finally won a game that's the main thing if we've lost tonight I think we're going out of the Champions League so we live on do you think there is a possibility that City and United will relegate this year?

43:00no I don't, Hrish I was never Oli out not even a second but I'm still Carrick out let's still enjoy the night Cheers for America. Apologies for the Glazers. Capitalism says Window. I just saw the Cunha Carrick clip. Not good, says Kiel. I don't think it's that bad. I think it's just Carrick saying you shouldn't be here. Get back to the dressing room. And I think Cunha was out there because he wanted to soak up the atmosphere he'd created, but technically he shouldn't have been there. I don't think it's that bad. Sleep well, everybody. You deserve it. Back tomorrow. Take care. Stay safe. And I'll speak to you on the next one.
