1:55Hello, everybody. Welcome to the United Stands. I'm Mark Goldbridge. This is your latest Manchester United transfer news as Wayne Rooney signs for you. The United Stand community will talk about that. Could Carlos Belaiba be heading the same way? Well, not to the United Stand. I'd reject that deal. But he is potentially going to be a Man United player now more than he was yesterday. Some big developments around Brighton's willingness to sell Carlos Beléber. Also, Jed Spence has gone to Inter. Man United had an opportunity to sign him, apparently, but he was too expensive. So where are we within the last few weeks of the window?

2:31Also, some stuff from last night, of course, the Leeds game. And more importantly, Carrick, Man United, where are we heading? So lots to get into on the show. But of course, it would be remiss of me not to start off with probably the biggest news of our summer transfer window. And incredibly, it's not Manchester United who've made the signing of the summer. It's the United stand with Wayne Rooney, now a regular on this channel. If you remember, you already have access to Goldbridge meets Rooney. It starts off at his amazing mansion and ends up in our new studio. A half an hour episode between me and Wayne introducing what we're going to be doing.

3:10A little bit of debate in there as well. we're going to have regular stuff on the member section but most importantly I would check the member section out it's brilliant and you can do that on Patreon as well links in the description if you can't access YouTube memberships or you want to go through Patreon you can do that but every Tuesday you will get a full hour episode of Stick to United for free on the United stand so extra member stuff which is going to be incredible but a full hour each week with me and Wayne in our new studio on a Tuesday. So look, overwhelmed. I just want to say thank you personally to everybody involved and none more so than the community.

3:51These things don't happen without you. So yeah, very, very, very excited. And yeah, brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. I've explained how the content is going to work. I think as well that it's important to say that, you know obviously I'm aware of the haters all I would say to them is would you rather Wayne Rooney sat down with some content creator who kisses his arse and talks about how great Man United are or would you rather Wayne Rooney sit down with someone like me who will continue to call out the glazers and the degradation of this football club and why I don't think we're heading in the right direction so you can dislike me you can dislike the United stand but I think when in life you want content.

4:36If I want to listen to a politician I really like, I want to listen to a politician argue with him I don't like. I want to see the real debate. And you can be a hater of this, but do you really want to see two things you like, sat having a friendly conversation? Or do you want to see something you don't like with something you do like having a proper debate? And that's what you're going to get. So I don't really get what the problem is because I've spent time with Wayne. He won't suffer fools. He's already called me a twat and he'll do it again and again and again and again. And he's very pro Carrick.

5:08He's, look, I want to delve into some of these conversations with Wayne because he said to me in the car, you'll see it on the members video. He's down Old Trafford and Carrington three or four times a week and he's seeing things he hasn't seen in a decade. So I want to delve into that. So it's going to be very, very good, proper debates. I also want to say, look, you know, massive for the community. Who would have thought we'd have Man United's all time top scorer as a regular on the channel, stick to United. But, you know, I've got to say, and it absolutely is 100 % down to how this has happened.

5:42It's down to Gary Neville and the overlap. Like, I wouldn't be able to do this deal. It's down to that link up that we have now. And when it comes to directors of football, Gary fucking knows what he's doing. Relentless, get the best. It was always, when we started talking about this deal way back in, you know, February, January time, And he mentioned, let's do a Stick to United show. And I was like, sounds great. And he was like, who do you think we should go for? And I was like, well, I mentioned the name. And he was like, let's get, I'll do everything I can to make it happen. So, you know what?

6:18I wish we had a director of football like that. Relentless, best-in-class attitude. I really do. So, look, very proud. And I think a lot of your comments on the videos and on the members' videos are that you're just smiling from ear to ear. Yeah, well, you should do because it's because of you. So great. And as I said, let the haters hate. I think I think they'll be entertained as well. I think we're going to have some really big debates about things we really disagree on, which is what life should always be about anyway. You don't get anywhere if you don't challenge. And that's what we'll be doing.

6:49So lots to get involved in. As I said, every Tuesday morning, we'll drop Stick to United on YouTube for all of you to watch. and on the members section every week we're going to have exclusive extra content you'll get access to Wayne for questions and Q &As we've got Goldbridge Meets Rooney which is live now on our members section a whole half an hour from his house with me and him doing stuff conversation all the way to the new studio really good episode you can get that on the members section and we've recorded a load of other stuff as well which is going to be great which is going to come out as well.

7:29And there's a load more stuff to come for the United stand too. So very excited by it and you deserve it. So thank you very much. Link for the member section is in the live chat. Link for the Patreon is in the video description. Take your pick and watch that today. It's there to be watched. OK, let's get into the show. I will answer some of your questions, but I want to get into the show because it is a new show. That's not going to change. So could Carlos Balaba be Manchester United's final third midfielder? Very interesting story this morning. Not directly to do with Manchester United, but it is out there.

8:05Remember, we've got Ben Jacobs on the show at two o 'clock, so we can probably delve into what's happening with Man United and the transfers. We'll talk about the fullback, but this is the latest in relation to the midfielder. Now, we still do hold talks with Kone. That is still a positivity. But this was from Craig Hope in the Daily Mail. He was the chief football reporter for the Daily Mail and has good connects around Newcastle. He says that Balaba's injury is not as serious as initially feared, so he should be back for the start of the season. He's on the list for Newcastle and is definitely one to watch.

8:45Newcastle won't go near£100 million for Balaba, but he's been told on good authority more recently that Brighton would be willing to listen to offers in the region of 60 to 65 million pounds. Now, that's all about Newcastle. But does that not now bring him back into Man United's reach? Because if Brighton are willing to accept between 60 and 65 million pounds, and I do just want to run a poll on this one as well.

9:21Do you want Balaba? I suppose. Balaba is desperate to sign for Manchester United. And if that price is going to come down to 60 or 65 million pounds, then would Man United leap at that opportunity? You would think so. You would think so. But I suppose. Look, my reservations on this are one, Kone is cheaper and I think he's better. Two, Stilla is cheaper and I think he's better. Three, Bergfell is cheaper and I think he's better. And four, Alex Scott's only going to be another 15 million pounds and I think he's way better. So I think there are better options than Belaber. However, I respect the fact that a lot of you like him.

10:13You know, I don't discount the fact that, you know, maybe there is something there. I think he's been absolute dog shit for a year and he doesn't deserve a move to Manchester United, considering he nearly got a move a year ago and then he takes that chance and, you know, wipes his arse with it because he was crap for a year. I do not think he's worth£60 million. I think he's worth£40. I don't think his form or ability. You can't be worth£65 million because you had a decent season two years ago and that's the only decent season in your career. I think he's a£50 million player tops. So I think he's overpriced at 60 to 65.

10:48Also though, an interesting new take, because none of that's new, you know I've said that before. If we did sign Belaba for 60 or 65, he would be our marquee midfield signing. what happens to Santos and what happens to Tillemans? Because I ain't benching Santos for Beléber. I know we've only seen Santos in pre-season, but I am not benching Santos for Beléber. Already what I've seen from Santos, and look, maybe Santos will flop in real games. Maybe he'll struggle. I don't know. But from what I've seen in pre-season, if you buy Beléber for 65 or 60, you end up starting him. We can't start Beléber and Santos, So you actually stick Santos back on the bench a bit again.

11:36So I don't think this is a good deal for United anymore. I think we do need to bring a midfielder in, but I don't think we need to bring in a player that had a bad season last year, make him our most expensive summer signing and derail what we've done with Santos. So for me, I think that the third midfielder needs to be somebody like Kone. It needs to be somebody like Stiller. It needs to be somebody like Bergvold. I think Balaba comes in with too high a profile and disrupts. I think if you've got Kone, he competes with Santos. I think if you've got Stilla, he competes with Tillemans and Santos.

12:15I think if you bring Balaba in, you have to start him because it's such a big signing. So I think that's become a bit of a problem for that deal. But overarchingly, I would say that. Do we not think 65 million pounds is out of our pay? I don't know that 65 million pounds is within our. Parameters anymore, I don't I don't know that United want to spend that amount of money on a player anymore. So, look, it's definitely opened the door more than it was opened before. Absolutely cannot deny that. But I feel that Balaba, this late in the window, is just not worth our effort. I don't. And if he goes to Newcastle, he goes to Newcastle.

13:06I would rather I'm more than happy to go with Tillemans, Santos, Maynou and another midfielder that comes in and competes I don't want to bring a midfielder in that sort of has to play and my concern would be if you spend£65m on Balaba you've got to start him because he's our biggest signing if you start him and he struggles like he did last season you've got to stick with him because he's a new big signing and that could be to the detriment of our performances. I just think there's too many red flags with Belaber. There's been too many red flags with him for a long time. But I know a lot of you like him and what I will acknowledge is it's probably, there's more chance today that we go for Belaber than there was yesterday because of this Newcastle story and this willingness to potentially do a deal for about 60, 65 million pounds.

14:00Interestingly, 60 % of you wouldn't go for him, But 40 % of you still would. So interesting on that. One player we're not going to sign is Jed Spence. I think that in relation to Jed Spence, I would say that I would not have gone for Jed Spence. But the report is that Man United were offered him but didn't fancy it at the price. I think the price is about£32 million or euros. So I just don't get that. I don't get that. I don't get where that story's come from, that we didn't want to pay the price for Jed Spence, who has apparently gone for like 32 million euros. I mean, that's not a bad deal for a player that was starting for England in the World Cup.

14:46Financially, I personally don't care about the price. I wouldn't have gone for him anyway. I think it's not, you know, he's a right back playing at left back for a start. And I don't really feel like he's the right player that Manchester United should be looking at. So for me, it would be a no on that one. A couple of other things. I mean, there's a couple of strange ones that came out from last night as well. I just want to delve into as well. this was from Simon Stone really strange really strange this one so Juventus AC Milan and Galatasaray are all keen on Bruno Fernandes however it is thought the players preference is to stay at Man United potentially for the remainder of his career Bruno Fernandes is on £300 ,000 a week and he's going to play in the Champions League with Manchester United how on earth would Juventus and AC...

15:51I mean, Italian football has no money. So how would they even afford 300 grand a week? Galatasaray could afford it, but it's like, I said this this morning to somebody, I said like Bruno being linked to Juventus, Milan and Galatasaray is like, it's like bloody Erling Haaland being linked to Villarreal, Lazio and Marseille. You just sort of go, why would they go there? Yeah, so it was a bit of a strange one because I almost thought maybe there's something in it because it's so strange, but I would be absolutely stunned if Bruno Fernandes wanted to leave Manchester United. But then again, there is no new contract signed at the moment.

16:33So I suppose while that's going on, it's maybe not about this season. It's maybe not about, maybe it's more about next season. Right, Wim, what are we doing here today? Filming promo for a new podcast, me and Mark Oldbridge. What's the podcast called Wayne? I don't know. What is it called? 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 reacting to all the games. Do you do your own painting in your house? All the big stories.

17:07Just having my socks on and my underpants. Good. Hopefully no sackings. I hope not. He's gone first on both of them. I think we will have debates. That's why I was saying you can go first. I did. On the volley. United. Oh, perfect. On the pitch, off the pitch. I've got a little goal in my garden. I'd have to save that, to be honest. State United is coming soon. Also, some very interesting comments coming in about Marcus Rashford last night. I think the feeling is with Rashford now is that he will be part of the plans next season. the reintegration whether you're against it or for it has just happened in the space of a few days really isn't it wants to go to Barcelona Man United want to get rid of him total hypocrisy in sacking half your workforce to save 20 million a year but then bringing Rashford back to spend 15 million a year but that's the that's Ineos for you but this is what Carrick said after the game he's our player he's come back in great spirits he's just like any other player I've known him for a long time he gives us something a little bit different look This is a project that Michael Carrick is going to stand and fall on, isn't it?

18:15I think that I hope it works. I've got a very open mind about this. You know I have. I don't blame Rashford. I don't blame Carrick. I blame the club. I think it stinks of hypocrisy to cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, refuse to pay big wages to new signings, but then bring a player back on 350 grand a week. It's just totally and utterly hypocritical from the club. But that's not Rashford's fault. That's not Carrick's fault. I think it has prevented us buying a winger, but it is what it is. I think the danger here is not really for us as fans. If it goes wrong, a lot of people will look at it and go, well, I told you so.

18:56If it goes well, I think most of us would go fair play. So I don't think we lose as fans, really. I think for Carrick and Rashford, there is a risk there because they've almost... What is success for Marcus Rashford back at Man United? Because I saw a great comment this morning. It was somebody moaning about JJ Gabriel not getting any time last night. But then they were moaning about how shit Fletcher was. And somebody quote tweeted it and went, but you're exactly why I don't want to see JJ being thrown in too early. Because you're absolutely slating the Fletcher brothers and their kids. and it just exposes the immense change.

19:41Because United have been so bad for so long, the frustration in the fan base is very high. It was never like this in the 90s and the noughties. There was a lot more patience because you trusted the manager, you trusted the ownership, you trusted the players to win big things. There's such a lack of trust in the club now that people have so little patience. You know, you're not going to be patient with something you don't trust. I look at Rashford. If he scores a goal in his first six games, it will be Starboy's back, Rashford's back, right? OK. In the next six games, if he's terrible, it'll be like we never should have brought him back.

20:17And that's the sort of problem I see for Rashford. It's not about being good for a few games. I think if he's not good every game, then...

20:34I've just been sent something here. I'm going to have to stop. I'm going to have to stop.

20:43I'm going to stop here because this is very sad news. This has just come out in the last few minutes. I've just been sent it in our group chat. I'm sure a lot of you will know the YouTube channel Webby and O 'Neill Darren Webby obviously on that channel I've been on it a couple of times lovely lads who run the channel Webby and Tony O 'Neill I've just been told that it is with deep sorrow and unimaginable grief we announced the passing of Darren Webby yesterday on the 12th of August after a long battle with cancer Darren absolutely loved life his family, friends, followers and his beloved United that is you know very very sad news to get especially live on the show I met Webby a few times lovely guy always had time for any United fan was always around hotel football absolute lovely guy you know in this fan base there are people who have very high opinions themselves you know make their mind up about people you know for somebody who's a lifelong red.

21:51Lovely guy and absolutely horrible news that cancer has taken another lovely guy. So yeah, look, thoughts with everybody there, especially, you know, there's so many people in the United fan base that will know whoever he is. And quite shocked. I knew he'd had his battles with illness and obviously I think most of us had hoped he'd come out the other side but shocking news, sad news and rest in peace Webby, absolute legend of the United fan base and yeah, very, very sad. Very, very sad. Very, very shocked to hear that as well. But very important that we, yeah, very, very important that we mention that and rest in peace Webby.

22:49Yeah, I'm shocked about that one, but...

22:58Yeah, okay.

23:04So, yeah, just talking, yeah, going back to what we were talking about Rashford there. What was I saying? Yeah, yeah. So I think with Rashford and Carrick, Michael Carrick is we can speak about Michael Carrick in very open and honest way because we've seen it with Ten Hag we've seen it with Amerim we've seen it with Oli we've seen it with Mourinho as a Man United manager we've seen what gets managers sacked and we've seen what keeps managers popular if Carrick goes down the route of Rashford and it doesn't work out it damages Carrick as an inexperienced coach if Rashford comes back and it doesn't work out it gets toxic very, very quickly.

23:44So it's very dangerous for Carrick and it's very dangerous for Rashford. And it doesn't matter what they say privately or publicly about how this is going to work. They don't control the story. No manager controls the story. I was watching the Mourinho documentary. One of the greatest managers has ever been, but also probably the greatest manager at controlling the story. Even Mourinho cannot control the story when things aren't going well. So my concern about Rashford is he's on huge money and that's always going to be big news. But if he has a run of games where he's not very good, he will get a load of shit.

24:23So the question I ask myself, is Marcus Rashford good enough now to play well every week? I don't think anybody's good enough to play well every week. I don't think Ronaldo was good enough when he came back to play well every week. So I think hopefully it's going to go well, but I'll keep an open mind when it comes to Rashford. But Carrick, look, Carrick definitely, I think, wants to keep him at the football club. I would want to keep him at the football club if I was being told that there's three weeks left in the window and you've only got two signings. I would be literally, you know, I'd be trying to keep Xerxi at the club because I'm like, am I actually going to get anything to replace him?

25:01So, yeah, it looks like he's staying. Just on Xerxi, there was an update from Fabrizio this morning about Xerxi. And I'm just going to try and find it for you now where it came from. Where was it? Here we go. Not here we go. So Juventus really want Xerxes. They would need to sell a player permanently before they can proceed with a loan, including an obligation to buy. United are happy with Xerxes and will not sanction and loan unless there is an obligation to buy at the end of it. I think this just sort of, to me,

25:38exemplifies the issue that we have at Manchester United right now in the sense that, yeah, there's about two and a half weeks left of this transfer window. And I think that we are still making decisions on Xerxes, Amas and other players. Structurally, a pathetic transfer window. Whatever we had planned in April and March and May, none of it's happened. Whoever the players we were trying to bring in haven't been brought in. And whoever the players we were thinking about getting rid of haven't been got rid of. so with two and a half weeks left I think it's just chaos very happy with Tillemans and Santos I think we pivoted quite well onto those two but where's the third midfielder?

26:27who's the left back going to be? why is Xerxes still here? you can't polish a turd and it's been a turd of a transfer window and I think United sat here with two weeks left or two and a half weeks left or under three weeks left or whatever it is saying we don't know whether we're going to keep Xerxes why is it up to Juventus? if we're keeping Xerxes or not? Is that the behavioural type of a football club that's in control? Well, if you don't do it with an obligation to buy, we'll just keep him. An ambitious football club should be, we want rid of him and this is the replacement. And it feels like, well, if you don't take him, we'll keep him.

27:03If you do take him, we'll have a look at what's in the market. And it's almost like we don't know what we're doing. You know? And the midfield, I'm sure we will surely buy another midfielder, but it's almost like we don't know what we're doing. And when I look at the game last night, I think the things I learned about last night were we definitely do need a left back. Amas isn't ready to be a starting left back and Luke Shaw is not good enough to be our starting left back. So we need a starting left back. I think we 100 % need another midfielder because Fletcher is not ready to do that either.

27:39And I'm hoping that Amas and Fletcher can be Man United players of the future, but they're not ready to do it this season. so the fact remains is we still need to sign a left back and a midfielder um but with every press every passing day um it becomes a little bit more problematic doesn't it so you know that's sort of where we are at the moment um and i'm sort of loathed to get too excited about any well there isn't a story out there to get excited about at the moment i think uh is the honest answer as i said the belabor story is more about newcastle and maybe we can end up doing something there um but at the moment it's looking um very very quiet um let me get in some of your comments very very quickly um fantastic mark now let's get belabor says keel to be fair you have always said that uh thank you very much um is this part of the strategy have crap windows so signings from now are loved by fans as we just want someone.

28:38They still need to be the right player. Well, Dan, I think it is a strategy. I think it is a strategy. I think when you can always... They can do it to me. And they can do it to you. And we're very on the ball when it comes to calling out the club. But it will still work on me and it will still work on you. I think it's been a pathetic transfer window. I don't think they've backed Michael Carrick. I think factually it's the worst window we've had since we sacked Mourinho the summer he had just before. It's a horrible transfer window for a new manager who is effectively having to pretend that Rashford is a new signing.

29:13He is having to pretend that Rashford is a new signing. I think that's why you've got people like Rio Ferdinand using that vocabulary. I wouldn't be surprised if it's been briefed out that people talk about Rashford like a new signing. I think Maz Raui said he's like a new signing last night. It has to be classed as a new signing because you're not going to get one. But I do agree with you, Dan. I think that in the last two weeks of The Window, it won't matter who we sign. Fans will be positive because we signed somebody. And this is what I mean about lack of structure. We're already in the desperation area.

29:48If we sign Tyler Adams, people will glaze it. It doesn't matter who we sign now. People will go, oh, it's a good signing. But it's not because it's too late and it's better than nothing, isn't it? I can't wait for the social media meltdown says Daniel Honestly mate I don't really care about the social media meltdown we're talking about Rooney aren't we Look as I said before ultimately it's not about me it's about you this is great for you to have Man United's all time top scorer legend of the club regularly on the United stand is great for you and I think that as I said I don't really care what people think about me in relation to this because I think the best debate comes from the word debate and hate all you bloody well like.

30:41I know a couple of content creators, if you sit them down with Wayne Rooney, it'd be fucking rubbish. They'd just sit there kissing his arse, talking about the good old days. It would be shit boring content. This will be proper debate. I will literally sit there and say, I think the Glazers are destroying Man United. And I think Wayne will probably come back with a completely different argument. If Carrick's not doing very well, I will sit there and say, I don't think he's the right guy. And I think, you know, Wayne will have a different approach. So pick your sides. If you don't like me, pick Rooney.

31:16It's absolutely, I don't care. I think it's just going to be great content. I don't think it's, I don't think you can lose on this. I really don't. Well done, Mark and the team taking United stand to new levels. Looking forward to hearing the debates from two legends, says Ashley. Well, there's only one legend, obviously. That's Wayne Rooney. Just on that, by the way, a lot of new members in the chat. Thank you. Next Tuesday will be episode one on YouTube of Stick to United with me and Wayne. We are going to have guests and stuff. Some of you will know this already because you'll have watched them.

34:20Dinner tonight is what's that horrible cheese you can buy? Not mozzarella, it's another one makes me actually want to throw up it looks like mozzarella but it doesn't taste like mozzarella I think it begins with a B it's like a white lump and you cut into it and it's watery in the middle Italians will know what it is not Stilton Anyway, if I'm hungry tonight and somebody offers that up to me, I probably would eat it. Berrata, that's what it is. Ray, Rhys, that's what it is. I fucking hate it. But if I was starving hungry, I'd probably eat it. And I think that's sort of like what our window could end up like.

34:57I don't want the Labour. I don't want Sanderberg. But on the last day of the window, if it's that or nothing, I will take it. I don't mind Feta. Keel. if Newcastle are looking at him how realistic is it that the prize stays at approximately 60 million Brighton could turn it into a bidding war yeah great point Emily great point yeah just watched the members only video with Wayne cracking show I think it's one of the best bits of content I've ever done Ian to be able to basically turn up on Wayne Rooney's drive walk up it meet Wayne Rooney who's knocking balls into the top corner meet him for the first time and yeah it's just if you like going for Goldbridge and driving with Goldbridge.

35:38It sort of fuses that with the United stand, which I've never done before. So it was great. Check it out if you remember.

35:48Shawnex says, the trailer was so good for Shaw would be entertaining. Congratulations. Do you think we gorge Newcastle's bid and United go and match it for Belayba? Look, there's a long way to go in relation to signing Belayba, But the difference between us going for Belayba and Mateus Fernandes will be if Newcastle make an approach for Belayba and start to get close to a fee and then Man United come in, Belayba will tell Newcastle to fuck off and say, I only want Man United. and we've seen this film before Man United love players that only want Man United and Newcastle love being beaten to transfers by other clubs so that's why I say it's very very possible but for me I'd be asking the question what does that do to Santos because it benches Santos and I think that would be I think Santos is better than Blaber so why would you why would you unsteady your own ship to overspend on Balaba.

36:49I just wouldn't do it. In fact, if it wasn't for his age, I'd probably prefer Sanderberg to Balaba because at least Sanderberg would be a bench player to Santos, whereas I think Balaba benches Santos. But I agree with Jammie, just get Kone. Absolutely. Birthday shout out to Daniel Thompson amongst everything that's going on. Happy birthday to Daniel. We've had good news and bad news today, of course.

37:20and that bad news of course is Darren Webb, Webby of the Webby O 'Neill YouTube channel has passed away, that's just come out today but also it's important to remember as well that many of you might know Webby as door security around Manchester, certainly at Hotel Football Man United Supporters Club at Hotel Football looked after everyone there and lots and lots of Man United fans will also know him from the bandit bus which is the away day trips as well so certainly well-known legend across the United fan base and I've never seen anybody have a bad word about him as well lovely guy, rest in peace and thoughts to everybody who's I'm sure absolutely stunned and shocked and saddened by that news today Buzz Abello says I don't necessarily think Belaber would have to start because of his price tag Sesco cost us 85 to 90 and he isn't a definitive starter in this team I disagree I disagree I think if you spend 65, 70 million pounds on a midfielder he doesn't spend all season on the bench does he I think he has to play and you know there is a hierarchy I think sometimes you want to you want a starter and a challenger.

38:42You don't want two starters. So if you bought Chumini, you wouldn't buy Caicedo. If you bought Haaland, you wouldn't buy Mbappe. So if we've got Santos as the starter, why would I buy Balaba? I'd buy Kone. I'd buy somebody that's going to challenge, you know? Balaba fits what Carrick wants more than others, says Kiel. Thank you, Kiel. seeing clips of Rashford already looking pissed off says Sound Dog I haven't seen any of them Stewart says let's get Kone or Stilla rather than Belaib I mean Maz Raui did say if Rashford's going to stay he might not stay he might still go just want to say congratulations love the community and you're a legend can't wait to see everything unfold over the season says Andron who can United buy to start in midfield right now Kone Adams Sanderberg Belaib Bergval Scott Stilla and Meechie there's someone else as well there's still a lot of players left yeah thought I'd prefer Stilla with Champions League experience but I'd settle for Belaber if they don't go for anyone else and in need for a third midfielder thank you pal Belaber would come on 50 grand a week he would be a sub I'm sorry like I'm sorry, I'm going to have to just be what I always am.

40:13Argumentative. You don't spend£70 million on a player who's on£50 ,000 a week and then sit them on the bench. And he won't be on£50 ,000 a week. I don't know where you've pulled this bollocks from your arse, but rubbish, absolute rubbish. Wayne Rooney was one of the reasons I supported United and to see yourself and Wayne doing this is very exciting. Sorry, I'm kind of behind. No problem only, Michael. Thank you very much for your super chat. Joe says, I don't think Ben Jacobs is very good for news this season. Thanks for your super chat there. I just really resonate with your thoughts on United.

40:48I made a short film on the club's current state. Will the Glazers ever fuck off? At Just Be Films says, at Just Be Films. Thank you very much, pal. Look, you know, it's been a strange show today. Emotional ups and downs. and but it's you know it's a great day for the community in relation to you deserve this it's your thing but look if negativity is calling out the Glazers and Ineos for the way that they're running this football club then call me negative if you're calling me negative for anything else please let me know because I've got no idea what you're talking about and all those people who are having a pop at me or anyone else involved in the channel for being negative, I take it you're happy with what's happened to the football club.

41:37I take it you're happy with the debts. I take it you're happy with the transfer window. I take it you're happy with Michael Carrick not being backed as a manager. If you're happy with that, great. I'm not. And I'll keep calling it out. Thank you so much, everybody for watching a massive day can Man United make a bigger signing than the United stand signing Wayne Rooney bollocks no they can't absolutely not they haven't got a director of football like Gary Neville for a start so absolutely no they can't signing of the summer made by the overlap and the United stand stick to United up and running big day for the community and look as I said let the haters hate let the lovers love I think everybody's going to get something as Rooney said on the clip what do you think the players think of Mark Goldbridge probably think he's a twat I agree I agree but guess what I think some of the players are shit so it works both ways doesn't it that's what a proper conversation is all about thanks everybody for watching we are back at 2 o 'clock with Ben Jacobs we are 8 o 'clock live it's Thursday with me yes and obviously we're working towards another pre-season game on Saturday against Amarim's AC Milan.

42:52Can Manchester United now start to do what we've done today and make some big moves in the final weeks of this transfer window? It's over to you, United. What are you going to do? Let's wait and see. Thanks for watching. Rest in peace to Webby. Speak to you in a bit.
