1:43Hello everybody, welcome to the United Stands. I'm Mark Goldbridge. This is your latest Manchester United news. Lots to get into, of course, this morning. Man United definitely in crisis. Let me know what you're thinking. But some of the things I want to talk about this morning. I think there's too many facilitators in this football club. You know who they are. They're on social media. They're doing YouTube content. They're journalists. They just sit there and go, oh, it's not good, Brev, is it? Yeah, but you know what? I'm going to be apathetic. You're pathetic. You're part of the problem. You just sit there and go, Man United are at their lowest point they've ever been now.

2:20And they sit there and go, well, you know, Goldbridge is toxic. Goldbridge is toxic. Yeah, this is a problem in our fan base. I'm not naming individuals. I could easily have a big list of that. But these people who, you know, even after the JJ stuff, they'd rather go after a 15 year old than look at the club. These people, when the summer transfer window is a joke, they'd rather go after the United stand. Or these people, when we give Carrick the job, who's just another ollie, they start going, oh, stop picking on a club legend. They are pathetic. They need to take a look in the mirror because this football club deserves criticism.

2:55When you look at it, the owners are terrible. The board is terrible. The coaching is terrible. And the team is terrible. Like there is there is definite levels to the blame here. But the whole thing is broken. I had a mate last night who's a Coventry fan messaged me and said, your defense is worse than ours. But they've just been newly promoted. But what they also said was, there's nothing about your club that's good. You don't even have a team that's good with a shit manager or a good manager that's got a shit team or a board that know what they're doing or owners that are ambitious. You literally have got a pot of shit mixed together.

3:33Like everything is crap. And look, Michael Carrick came out last night. We're going to talk about some of his comments. Michael Carrick came out last night taking the responsibility. I disagree, Michael. I disagree. You might be at your depth. You might not be good enough, but you taking the blame, you're like the good Samaritan. I can see it in his eyes. He looks devastated. He looks hurt. Some people said he almost had a tear in his eye. He's got no enthusiasm in interviews. He's never had any, you know, he's never shown any passion in any interview, even last season when we were winning. He is the perfect victim for this disgusting ownership because he will come out like Oli, looking sad, taking the blame.

4:13You're not responsible, mate. You're about the... I don't even know what number manager you are. You're not responsible for appointing yourself and not backing yourself. He might not be good enough, but he is not responsible and he shouldn't be coming out saying, it's my fault. It's my fault. Of course, there's some blame. But look, if I had my way, right? If I had my way, I am not saying sat Carrick. I'm not saying Carrick out. I'm bored of it, right? But what I would say is, there's a PR going out this morning, basically. Let's get into some of the news. There's PR going out this morning from multiple sources, if you haven't seen it, that Man United have given full support to Michael Carrick.

4:52They believe he's the right person to stay in the job and he has their full support. You know what you can do with that statement? Ram it up your ass. Like, You know why you can ram it up your ass? Because I don't care or trust you. You can come out and tell me it's raining. I'm still going out in my bloody swimming trunks. Yeah. You can tell me it's cold outside. I'm going out in my shorts. Right. I don't believe you. I don't trust you. So when you come out and say Michael Carrick's got your total support, it's like a clown backing, you know, a custard pie. I don't care. Your opinions are shite.

5:28In fact, I would rather do the opposite of what you say. If you say you're thinking about sacking Carrick, I'd support him. If you're saying you support him, I'd sack him. I'd do the opposite of what our board and owners want to do. So I'm past all that. I couldn't give a toss if they come out and say they're backing the manager because they're to blame, not Carrick. Their decisions shouldn't be listened to. They are absolutely bloody useless. So I don't care about the vote of confidence or the support. They're the ones who put us in this mess. They are the people that have destroyed this football club.

6:00Absolutely. But look, I was driving back. I just had my hair cut this morning and I was listening to the radio. And I can't remember who it was who said it. I think it might have been a caller. They said, we can't keep sacking managers. I disagree. I actually disagree. I don't want to keep sacking managers, but hold on with this. Right. If you've been married four times and got divorced and you get married again fifth time, yeah? And you can even see your mates are tired of turning up for weddings, right? And a couple of weeks later, you go out with your mates and you say, I've made a big mistake.

6:36And they're like, you can't keep getting divorced. You can't. This is your fifth marriage. You can't get divorced again. We're definitely not coming to your next wedding. And they persuade you to stay, right? Is that right? Is that right to stay in a marriage that you don't think is right just because you've been divorced four times before? Of course, it's bloody not. You don't stay with something out of stubbornness because you've been divorced four times before. And you don't stay with a manager that's the wrong manager just because you've sacked a load of other ones. I look back We shouldn't have sacked Mourinho We should have stuck with him We possibly shouldn't have sacked Ten Hag We probably should have stuck with him And I definitely think we should have given Amrim longer But we were right to sack Oli We were right to sack Van Gaal So look, I disagree with this I completely disagree with You've got to stick with a manager Just because It's not a crap analogy, J-Fest You're thick You're just thick, mate, right?

7:35If you've been married and divorced five times and you get married again and it's not working, should you get divorced? Yes. Of course you should. You shouldn't stay in it. It might be worse than the other marriage. Yeah. It might be absolutely terrible. Of course you get out of it. And it's the same with managers. If it's the wrong manager, you don't stick with them because you've sacked a load of other ones. He might be worse than all the other ones. This is what I mean. Sacking managers isn't the problem anymore. Because if I had my way, tomorrow morning, I would definitely sack Wilcox, sack Barada, and bring in Rangnick and Nagelsmann to work with Favell.

8:20I'd do that tomorrow. Now, people go, you're mad. You're absolutely mad. But Ralph Rangnick's the person that spoke the most sense since Sir Alex Ferguson left. Favell's already here and Nagelsmann's available. Now, this is not going to happen, but people ask me, what would I do? I don't think this is about the manager anymore. I think this is about the structure. You know, the sporting director, the CEO, the owners need to go, but they've sacked so many managers over the years. Woodward stayed for years. Arnold stayed for ages. This, where we are now, cannot be put at the manager's feet because the next manager can't come in and say, let's stop sacking staff.

9:09Let's stop making cuts. Let's stop lowering the wage bill. Let's start spending big money. Let's start selling players better. As a manager, I can't do that. If I'm Nagelsmann or Konsei or whoever you want comes in tomorrow, I can't change the things that are going to make that team better. I can try and coach them better, but you can't polish a turd. So we absolutely this morning need to be saying or thinking. I think United are beyond repair. I think United are beyond repair, but think about it, right? What are the things that piss you off about Man United, right? Results, embarrassing results like that.

9:51Why do they keep happening? Does Michael Carrick have a squad good enough to win the league? No. Does he have a squad good enough to get in the top four? Probably. Will they get in the top four? Possibly. Will they play good football? No. Will they get results at some point? Yes. Will it be a rollercoaster season? Yes. How do we stop that happening? Get better players in. How do we get better players in? Michael Carrick doesn't do that. So the change that needs to happen comes from the top. Absolutely. It comes from the top. And that's where I go back to and say the owners are rubbish. The board aren't performing.

10:26Carrick's coaches are not performing and neither is the team. But sacking the manager, I don't think changes it. And that is why if somebody said, if Sir Jim Radcliffe rang me up now and said, what you tell me to do, I'll do, but the Glazers and me aren't going. I'd say, right, get Ralph Rangnick in as sporting director, keep Favell, get Nagelsmann in with his coaches, because at least you've got something similar to what Arteta has at Arsenal, Klopp had at Liverpool, and Pep had at Man City. You've got a manager working with a sporting team that he's worked with before. Rangnick knows Nagelsmann and Favell.

11:05So you've got people who know each other and work together. What you've got at the moment is a CEO who used to be at Man City, a sporting director at Southampton, and an ex-player who was at Middlesbrough with an ex-player that used to be a player in Johnny Evans. He's right man-man in Woodgate and Southgate's assistant from England. It's a mess. You've basically thrown a load of people together who have never worked together at one of the biggest clubs in the world. So I would say that what you need to do is get... I'm having a hypothetical conversation here that will never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever happen.

11:50But I would get together people who long term are going to work together. And Amrim, Amrim was put together with Wilcox and Barada and Favell, never worked with them before. so that's if we can't remove the owners that's what I would do and if Sir Jim Radcliffe and the Glazers can't figure this out which they won't figure it out we're truly lost but that's what I would do but we're not going to do that so we've got to hope that Michael Carrick can turn it around haven't we um but I think that yeah I've seen a lot of people talking about this and it's not nice to talk about sacking directors of footballers and CEOs but when you look at the last two years, it's an absolute shit show.

12:34It's an absolute shit show. And we've sacked two managers that were better than Carrick. I think Amirim and Ten Hag are better than Carrick. The team is getting worse, not better. And as I always said, when we gave Michael Carrick the job, I will back him. But when you give Michael Carrick the job, you have to back him more than you'd back Nagelsmann or Emery or Irreola because he's inexperienced. And what we did, and it's disgusting, and you could almost end the stream at this point, it's disgusting. Michael Carrick needed 400 million spending on him when an experienced coach probably needed 250.

13:15And we gave him 100. That's our biggest problem. Michael Carrick is so inexperienced, he actually needed more money spending on him than an experienced coach. We gave him half what you give an experienced coach. So look, these things fundamentally do go back to where they are. Lots to get into. I'm going to get into your comments. I want to talk about the lack of energy in the team. I want to talk about five players that I think we've got a big problem with. I also want to talk about the balance of the team and where it's going wrong as well. And I want to get into your comments as well. But it is Thursday, which means if you are a member, then you need to watch our Thursday video that goes out with me and Wayne.

13:52It's another community questions episode that's just dropped this morning. You can check that if you're a member. Join if you're not. It's a brilliant one. But just to give you a little bit of a topical, because you asked the questions and we answered them. And a lot of people said, did anybody ask Wayne about the protests? Well, here we go. Yesterday, the fans held up a banner that said the way you treat us is a disgrace. Both Jim Ratcliffe and Avram Glazer were at the game. Do both of you think it would have had any effect on them? And that's from Mr... That's from Mean Mr Bean. I think you'd like to think so.

14:26Because I think if I'm an owner of a business as your biggest... and your biggest product is the fans, basically. And you go to the stadium and that's all. I think you'd be disappointed. I think the Glazers have had worse, so I don't think it would impact them. I think Sir Jim Radcliffe has come out before and said that, you know, if the fans don't like me, I'll leave and he's still here. So probably won't make much of a difference. But I think when you've spent 1.8 billion to buy something and then had two years and you're pretty much disliked, you'd hope it would make a difference. But they have treated the fans pretty bad.

15:03That's why that's there. I mean, I think the treatment of season ticket holders, having their tickets taken off them, and for the, you know, 58 and the Red Army to be doing stuff together like that, protests and the banner, you know, they're the hardcore of the United fan base. So you piss them off at your peril, really.

15:24Why that went off so quick. So yeah, you can check that out on the member section. These questions are from you that we put to Wayne. So brilliant questions. Check that out if you're a member after this or click the join button and you can get all this extra content every week. Two videos going up each week on the member section. We will put those questions and a lot more on Stick to United as well. Look, I think that on from what I spoke about at the start of the show, let's deal with what happens in the immediate future. I've seen a lot of people saying Carrick should get sacked. They're not going to sack Carrick.

15:56At the end of the day, put it like this, right? You come home from work with a brand new Ferrari and you can't pay the mortgage. And you really want that Ferrari and everyone's telling you you're a fucking idiot for buying it. Some people would own up and say, I've made a really big mistake for the family. I need to get rid of this Ferrari no matter what I can get for it. Some people double down and say, no, I think this is the right decision. I think we've got owners and a board that are going to double down on a bad decision. I really do. My feeling about Carrick is that he's almost going through the seven stages of getting sacked here.

16:31First of all, there's the bravado. We've lost a couple of games, but we're a good team. And we're going to start winning games and we're going to have a good season. That was after Everton. we've now lost two games in a row badly and he's coming out looking beaten and saying it's unacceptable and taking responsibility himself I think as a player you go through two things there bad result against Everton your managers saying we're a good team these are good players you're losing to Brighton I'm at fault I'm not good enough that's unacceptable we're not very good as a player you're seeing weakness now You're like, well, he was backing us two weeks ago.

17:12Now he's blaming himself. It's almost the sympathy card now for Fulham. It's like, we need to be better for Michael. Look at how sad Michael is. You know, he's taking the blame. We need to take the blame. So we've been through all this before, especially with some of these players. We've been through all this before. And I think that we have to beat Fulham at the weekend, but it doesn't necessarily solve the problem. You can't trust these players, by the way. You literally cannot trust these players. I thought looking at the game yesterday, just to speak about players for a moment, the big problem he's got is that, look, Carlos Belaiba needs to be one of the best midfielders in the Premier League from day one.

17:59I look at our fan base over the summer and look at where they are now. You know, I mentioned at the start of the video, the facilitators who just seem to want to defend what the club is doing, even though it's unacceptable and get proven wrong all the time. They're just getting proven wrong, left, right and centre. They need to look in the mirror and go, you are just protecting the Glazers. I don't know what you think you're protecting, but you are just protecting the Glazers. Oh, it's JJ's fault. Oh, the transfer window was really good. Oh, giving Carrick the job and not spending money on him.

18:32That's a good idea. Oh, you know, sacking half the workforce. That's a good idea. Oh, the debt's not a bad thing. These are the same people in the summer who, when we were playing preseason, said that Santos was better than Casemiro. Go and get the receipts. They're there. Go and watch my match reactions. Go and watch the match reaction I did when I was on holiday and I got a load of shit for it. I can't remember what the game was. I was on holiday. I did it on the balcony and the comments are just, you know, ridiculous because we won a game and I was like, it's a pre-season game and I don't trust it at all.

19:07That was prime positivity gang, toxic positivity. Santos is better than Casemiro. Santos is cooking. Santos is better than Casemiro. Santos is a bargain. Santos looks like a£100 million player. Oh, we've robbed Chelsea. Oh, Santos is going to be better than Casemiro. Oh, the only reason he's not playing for Brazil is because they've already got Casemiro. that's one same people Xerxi Xerxi deserves another chance why is Xerxi not playing football Xerxi's cooking oh look at him against Sabah oh social media guy at Man United let's put a clip of Xerxi against Sabah cooking we literally are over it came on yesterday I've got died in the blood Man United fans of 30-40 years match going fans messaging me saying that Zerksy should never play for Man United again.

20:04These are people that will always see the positive and they're like, Zerksy should never play for Man United again. If I ever see him coming on the pitch again, I'm going to fucking lose it. The way he prances around like he doesn't give a shit, get rid of him. Why is he still at the club? So Sesko and Zerksy are cooking, according to some people in our fan base. Oh, Starboy Rashford's back. Starboy Rashford's back and he's cooking as well. Yeah, he's cooking. He's another one that's cooking. Bring him back. Bring the Starboy back. He's cooking. You know, brilliant. Absolutely brilliant decision that looks like so far.

20:37Luke Shaw's cooking as well. Stop picking on Luke Shaw. Pick a card. Don't pick on Luke Shaw. Pick a card. You know, Luke Shaw, pick a card. Yeah, Luke Shaw's a brilliant player. Luke Shaw. Oh, yeah, Luke Shaw. You're too hard on Luke Shaw. He's very popular at Man United, Luke Shaw. Didn't miss a game last season, Luke Shaw. Oh, yeah, Luke Shaw, Luke Shaw. He's missed 50 % of our games already this season. If there ain't a World Cup at the end of the year, forget about Luke Shaw. If there ain't a Euros at the end of the year, forget about Luke Shaw. But oh, no, no, he's cooking. That's not fair.

21:09You're not being fair. You're not being fair. And then, as I said, Balaba. Our whole season and Carrick's future probably rests on Balaba now. Now, I'm not going to make a prediction because I hope it's going to work. but our whole season depends on a guy that we bought late because we couldn't get anybody else, spent£70 million on, had a bad season at Brighton last year and is injured at the moment. Right, Wayne, what are we doing here today? Filming promo for a new podcast, me and Mark Goldbridge. What's the podcast called, Wayne? I don't know. What is it called? Oh, that was good. Wayne is a player.

21:52Exactly what Man United was all about. and 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 a... We'll be reacting to all the games. Do you do your own painting in your house? All the big stories. Just had my socks on and my underpants. Good. Hopefully no sackings. A whole floor. He's gone first. I've bolted him. 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 say for that, to be honest.

22:24Stiffy United has come on to him. I mean, no pressure, Carlos, but our whole season rests on you basically producing consistently form that you haven't done for over a year. No pressure. No pressure. It literally is all on Belaber now. If that transfer doesn't work, we need a whole new midfield rebuild next season. And look, Tillemans is OK, but he's 30 this season and he can't run. So this midfield rebuild that they've done rests on Carlos Baleba. Like he is literally our only hope after the transfer window because there's nobody to come back. I was looking at it last night and I was like, it's rotation, not injury.

23:10All right, Ahmad's got to come back. But I mean, Ahmad, I think has got the potential, but it's never, you know, it's never worked out as well as it should do. So I think that we're in big trouble. We're in big, big trouble. And everybody I've spoken to and everything I've read and listened to over the last sort of 12 hours is the acceptance that United aren't heading anywhere. They're not. They might be able to pick up some results, but there is no vision. And you know why there's no vision? Because that team has got no balance to it at all. There's no balance to the team. When I look at Liverpool and Iriola and Chelsea and Alonso and even Spurs and Deserby, I'm not saying it's all going to be successful because it probably won't.

24:00But when you look at Chelsea, Liverpool and Spurs, if you've watched them, they're not perfect by any means. There are holes in their teams. There are problems. But you can see what Alonso is trying to do and you can see some of the players that will be able to do it. At Liverpool, you can see what Iriola is trying to do and you can see some of the players. I mean, look, Gatpo was a bag of shit last season. He now looks like one of the best players in the league. That's Iriola. And look, Spurs will have to wait and see. At United, we've had Michael Carrick for eight months. I don't know what we are other than let's hope teams let us counterattack.

24:35And if you don't let Man United counterattack you, you will win. You will literally win. It's interesting that Brighton sort of played a little bit clever in the second half. They stopped playing this ridiculous high line and being open. And they actually started playing a little bit more compact, but the same in possession. You play like that against Man United, you're absolutely sorted. There's no balance in this team. Let me break it down for you, right? Our fullbacks are absolutely rubbish. We haven't got fullbacks. And in the modern game, even Newcastle have got fullbacks. We haven't got fullbacks.

25:12This is incredible. We spoke about this in May. Yes, the midfield needs solving, but is anyone going to talk about our fullbacks? Because they're crap. Our fullbacks are rubbish. So that's a problem. We've gone into a season with rubbish fullbacks. So we're not balanced straight away. Because if you haven't got fullbacks, they're going to hurt your wingers. We haven't got wingers who want to defend anymore. Mbermo and Rashford do not want to defend as much as Ahmad and Cunha. So we're absolutely rubbish down the flanks now. Defensively, we're all right going forward. Mbermo and Rashford, I think, are decent.

25:44but defensively, they're not going to help Deleuze and Shaw and offensively, they're not going to help them. So we are imbalanced on the flank, right? Which means having a six foot five striker is an absolute waste of time because you're going to get very little crossing into the box. You've then got two centre-backs who are slow. Maguire and Martinez are slow. So they're never going to push as high as they need to. And interestingly, in the first 20 minutes against Brighton, say what you like about Heaven and Yoro, we were doing well in the press because they were happy to go to the halfway line because they're quick.

26:16We've not pressed well all season because normally it's Martinez and Maguire who won't go high because they're scared of the ball in behind. So we've got a defence that doesn't help us press. Sorry, we've got centre-backs that don't help us press. We've got full-backs that don't give us balance. The midfield is brand new, trying to learn with each other. It's like, you know, your first day at a training course where you don't know anyone. Hello, I've driven in from Birmingham. My name's Mark and I like football. What's your name? My name's Jim. I don't like sports and I very rarely go to the pub.

26:49Why have you sat next? Why have you sat me next to Sir Jim? Not Sir Jim, Jim. You know, he likes champers. But the point is, the midfield is like a bunch of new people. And then Bruno is the ever-present Bruno. And up front, I don't know who the striker is going to be. I've just been through our whole team and the only consistent thing that might help us is Bruno. The width is done in. The centre-backs are too slow. The midfield's brand new and we don't know who our striker is. Hello. There is no balance in that team at all. So we're going, we've got to beat Fulham. We've got to beat Fulham. And then in October, we've got to beat Chelsea, Spurs, Como, Atletico Madrid, Leeds away.

27:30We're not balanced in that team at all. I was thinking about this this morning. if I did bring a decent manager in now with a decent head of director of football and whatever, what would I do for this season with no window? And I was like, that's not easy. That is not easy to solve quickly because you've still got Bruno and Rashford that have got to play. You've still got Cunha and Mbremo that have got to play. I know what I would do. There's no point saying it here. I would get some pace at centre-back. I would go Martinez and Yoro for now. I just would get some pace at centre-back and push us up.

28:14I'd ask Lomens to be more of a sweeper-keeper, and I'd get that line up. I don't know what I'd do at full-back. I can't do anything at full-back. I have total sympathy in Michael Carrick. At full-back, we are a fucking joke, and I can't magic full-backs. There isn't anybody in that squad that I trust. I don't rate our full-backs, so I'm screwed. Out wide, honestly, I probably would put Kunja back on the left and put Ahmad on the right when he's back fit but you know then neither one's not fit and one's not being used midfield two I've got to bet the farm on Balaba I absolutely need some speed and intensity in there Casemiro has not been replaced obviously I'm going to pick Maynou I need Balaba to work I'm going to have to pick Bruno at 10 and I'm going to I'm going to I'm going to be so stubborn on Sesco it's going to destroy everybody because I'm going to say I don't care how long it takes for him to get fit and how long it takes for people to pass to him, we have to build around him because if we can get a 20-goal striker, we will get out of trouble and we'll get in the Champions League.

29:14And that's what I would do. But it ain't easy, is it? It isn't easy. And also as well, and this is where I do blame the coaching. And to be fair to you, I'll applaud you and me as well as part of this because we should get a book out for Christmas. We really should put a book out for Christmas. The United stand, I was right. Always right, right? The amount of things we've predicted correctly from January is incredible. In January, when they sacked Amrim, I think things are going to get worse. In February, when it came out that the players were training less than they were under Amrim, this is going to screw us over.

29:58In January, I can see this JJ Gabriel thing going really, really wrong because we're not going to give him the time he wants and he'll just leave. June, this transfer window is going to fucking destroy the season. There's just so many things and most, you don't even need to watch the United stand. I think a lot of United fans were probably saying this to their mates and their missus and anyone who'd listen.

30:22But we said this. I'm going to give you the credit because I haven't massively seen anybody talk about this until now. We have definitely predicted now with Carrick's as mad. I'll come back to that. We have definitely spoken about this since probably late January, maybe February. And it's starting to get picked up now by the journalists and everything, right? You were months ahead of the game. A story came out about how everyone loves it under Carrick. You know, he's not working them as hard as Amarin. He's letting them train less. And, you know, it's really popular with the players. If I manage a team, right, if I ring up the studio today and say,

31:11take the afternoon off, I want to be a popular boss, take the afternoon off, right? I'm going to be really popular, right? But the productivity and performance of my business is going to go down the hill. My staff are going to love me, but we are not going to perform as well as we could do because I'm literally getting them to work four hours instead of eight. There is no way you need to play and listen to players. You don't, right? But factually, factually, since Arsenal and Man City, Carrick's teams have gradually got less and less energetic. Tielemans himself did that interview with Rio where he said we've mainly been doing ball work.

31:55there's too many hints out there that fitness wise we are terrible and I don't get it right because when I think about Man United well look at 99 we're losing 1-0 after 90 minutes in the new camp and our energy is taking us to to win that game with with Solskjaer right I think about when Wayne used to play right in you know between 2005 and 2010 how many times were we away at teams like Arsenal and breaking from a corner with immense energy and intensity. Man United's always been about winning with late goals. Man United's always been about effort. We've always been about intensity and fitness and energy.

32:40And I don't know what Carrick and his coaches are playing at, but we have not got any. We haven't. We've got all the energy of your bloody roadkill at the moment, especially in the second half. There's nothing there. We're getting embarrassed by Hull. I said it when we played Sabah last week. We're way better than them. And obviously we beat them. But fitness wise, for the first hour, they looked fitter than us. Everton in the second half looked fitter than us. Man City with 10 men looked fitter than us. And Brighton with their reserves looked fitter than us. But this was happening last season as well.

33:18I admit Arsenal and Man City under Carrick were brilliant intensity, speed, energy, stamina, brilliant but that was like two weeks after Amrim had been sacked and Amrim had been coaching that team for nine months the fitness doesn't disappear after two weeks but it will start to disappear after one month, two month, three month, four month this needs calling out Our fitness levels are visibly ridiculously bad. Now, look, people might throw out distance covered. Distance covered is bullshit, right? It's how quickly you cover that distance. It's with what energy you cover the distance, right? I can run five meters and not put much into it.

34:04I can run five meters and my life depends on it. So our energy levels are shocking. And I'm glad the press are starting to pick up on this because it's embarrassing. I watched the AC Milan game in pre-season was the one where I went, oh my God. Remember, we were talking about it. AC Milan in pre-season. Oh, Amrim's AC Milan, funnily enough. We couldn't get out our own half. Pre-season game and we were getting dominated by AC Milan and people brushed it under the carpet. Santos is the new Casemiro. Rashford's back. Yeah. Luke Shaw's cooking. Xerxes is cooking. people swept it under the carpet it started with AC Milan we exposed how unfit we were against AC Milan and it's been happening every game since it's ridiculous the only game where we've had any intensity was Ipswich and I think that was down to the crowd I think the crowd sensed the desperation and got the players up for 40 minutes and Ipswich fell apart but our fitness levels are absolutely disgusting exhausting.

35:13And that worries me because you speak to any player, fitness guy, coach and say, our fitness levels in mid-September aren't where they need to be. How do we get them back? And they go, you've missed the boat. You've missed the boat. Every manager that comes in for a sacked manager says, fitness levels are terrible. It's tough. And it's really, really different. If we could stop everybody going on international duty, you could spend two weeks of the three-week international break trying to get those fitness levels up, working exclusively on fitness. But we're not going to do that. Most of our team is going to be out on international duty.

35:57So, yeah, it's a massive concern because I don't know how you solve that. And the easiest thing in the world with Man United now is play a low block, be really intense and counter quickly. How do we deal with that? You've literally, look, football's so simple, right? Some of you will have coached. I certainly have. I would look at Man United and I would go, the worst thing we can do is commit men forward, high up the pitch and leave space in behind because they'll sit, conserve energy and break quickly. We're playing into their hands. We need to play out of their hands. What are Man United good at?

36:34Quick counters. What are Man United bad at? Games where the ball's in play, where they've got to work to get it. And the longer they have to do that, they get more tired and they can't break a low block. So if I'm playing Man United, I'm like, right, I want loads of energy. I want us to really get at them when they've got the ball. I want us to get at them and make them work. I want us to play with a low block because they don't know how to get through it. And then when we get the ball, I want us to use really quick movements to get through them because they're tired and slow. That's how you beat Man United.

37:07Low block, lots of intensity and speed on the break to exploit our tired space. And if you get 2-0 up, we're fucked, basically. So I think United have given a massive blueprint that they can't deal with at the moment. So I'm worried. I'm very, very worried about... Look, I said it when that window went shit. I said, I hate to say this, but if you give me fifth place now, I'll grab it with both hands and I hate those standards but I hate the prospect of another season not in Europe I hate the prospect of what that would do to the football club things will get worse things will get a lot worse if we don't get into Europe so I'm sort of like it's the middle of bloody September and I'm begging for fifth and people think we don't need regime change it's embarrassing they could use belaborate left back says Jay Well, this is, look, Michael Carrick's not going to get sacked, but you know what I said a couple of minutes ago?

38:10I'm going to get into your comments.

38:17The interesting thing with Carrick is what, you know, we can all say he's going to get sacked. Let me answer that question. What's going to happen with Michael Carrick? He's going to lose his job. At some point, he's going to lose his job unless he performs a miracle. Now, I think he sort of did perform a miracle last season, so maybe he will. But the interesting thing with Carrick is going to be what he does from here, because I think any United fan you listen to is talking about this needs to change, something massively needs to change. I think he needs to get back to some level of consistency ASAP.

38:54So Fulham is a bit of a free hit. If he can win the game, great. If it's a draw, he'd probably get away with it. If he loses it, he's under major pressure. but after the international break he's got to have a plan so I'm going this is my team I'm going to pick like he made a lot of changes last night I quite liked it because people needed game time but some people say he made too many changes when he needed to win I would say what team should he have picked to win then because the team at the weekend was shit as well like we don't know what his best team is so I think what Carrick needs to do and will he do it is change things now for me your front four is Bruno Ahmad or Mbamo Sesko and Kunja because it works Kunja works hard defensively and is it works Kunja on the left works Ahmad works hard defensively and it works and if he's not available he can use Mbamo and Sesko needs to play up front it's not the finished article he had a bad game yesterday but you've got to stick with it because Mbamo up front Kunja up front Rashford up front it won't work and Bruno's got to play there.

40:02You then got to play Mainu and Belaba. You've got to, you just got to hope that fucking works. Like you need somebody next to Mainu with speed and intensity who can tackle. It's going to have to be Luke Shaw at left back if he can get fit. I don't want Luke Shaw at left back. I wanted a starting left back, but we didn't do anything. So it has to be Luke Shaw. Right back, fucking hell, Masraoui probably. But again, these are not what I would do. And then I'd go Jaro and Martinez with Le Menz in goal. The back four terrifies me. But if I can get the front four right, I might score more goals. And if the midfield works, we'll be better in the midfield.

40:42But the back four terrifies me. I don't know what he's supposed to do with that, really. But I don't know whether Carrick will do that. Because I've just realised I've dropped Rashford. I've dropped Mboumo. I've dropped Tillemans. I've dropped Maguire. I just don't think he'll do that. so and I didn't I didn't drop them purposely because I think they're the problem I dropped them because I'm just putting the team that I would build with to try and get some results but I don't I don't see Rashford going on the bench I don't see Maguire going on the bench I don't see Tillemans going on the bench I don't see Mbamo going on the bench so Carrick's got an opportunity to rescue this situation by building a team that I just mentioned there that I think will give us a chance I don't think he's going to do that because I think he's already, he's almost fast-tracked himself to Oli's last end of days, really.

41:33Oli, at the end, had lost everything and was trying to get his favourites to get him out of trouble. Carrick, incredibly, is in that position already where he's already reliant on Bruno, Deleuze, Tillemans, Rashford, Maguire, Martinez and Shaw to get him out of shit. well unfortunately I think half of those players have sacked other managers multiple times so I think he's already in the position where he can't drop certain players that need to be kicked out the team and when that happens it's just a matter of when not if isn't it I just can't see a situation where the team he's picking is going to work I think it's just too open I think it's too easy to play against us but I think if you had Kunja off the left Amad off the right Sesko up front Bruno, Baleba, Maynou.

42:27You've got a much better balanced team for modern football. McCaffrey says, Steve Holland's only notable role was with England. He didn't need to worry about conditioning as the players did that with their clubs. Great point. Yes, the club have let Carrick down with signings 100%. What is shown on the pitches on Carrick? Lack of intensity, lack of sharpness in games come from standards on a training pitch. That's on Carrick, says Gus. Look, as we said at the start of the game yesterday, the owners have absolutely destroyed this football club. fact and that's where every blame should be leveled at but it doesn't mean Carrick isn't responsible for losses both things can be correct both things can be correct and you're right the fitness levels are a joke and the favoritism in the team is a joke I mean at the end of the day we're basically Southgate's England aren't we we're picking players on nepotism with no energy and we're you know we're in trouble I was at the game last night the clear difference in quality coaching between Carrick and Herzler was worrying.

43:27This is my big problem. This is my big concern, Josh. And I'm going to speak to Wayne about this next Tuesday because obviously he's a big friend of Carrick and he wants him to do well. I completely respect that. But it's a bit like Oli again. It was very obvious and it's very obvious now because Solskjaer isn't in the game. He is not a coach that's at the level of Herzler or even Keith Andrews. Like, you can want somebody to do well because you like them, but that's not good enough. It's like Deleuze. I want Deleuze to do well because I know he's a good lad and I know he cares, but he's not good enough.

44:08And I just think the club might be, we're going to stick with this because it has to work. If football was about sticking with things through stubbornness, then Manchester City wouldn't have needed to spend a penny. they wouldn't need to get Pep Guardiola. They could have stuck with Mark Hughes and they could have stuck with, you know, Mika Richards and Richard Dunn and everyone like that and just stuck with it. But they didn't because those people weren't going to take Man City to where they are now. It's a crap tactic to go, we're just going to stick with this through stubbornness. If they're not good enough, you need to make the change very, very quickly.

44:43And they will know. Jason Wilcox knows. Omar Barada knows. Sir Jim Radcliffe knows. and look, you're better off parting ways today if you know it's not right than sitting there praying till February and missing out on Europe. But that's not my decision. I don't have to make that decision. Thank you very much, Josh Gusneldo. The main thing I've seen in there is there are no fear of losing. Arsenal City and Liverpool fear losing. This group don't fear it. They accept it, says Gary. Patrick, panic mode is on. Carrick sacked cycle repeat, says JBS. Don't sack the manager in September. Respect the club, says AP.

45:22Jason Wilcox needs to leave three failed projects, says Austin. I do agree. I think if a manager can be sacked, why can't a failing director of football be sacked? Absolutely. I don't understand why that's not ever on the agenda. I said the same with Merta. It just seems to me we don't look at that. And it's obvious. And I agree with Daniel. They made Carrick's job impossible with that pathetic transfer window. Of course they did. The international break is basically a holiday for the players who aren't in duty anyway. They've probably already got the flights booked, says John. Is it too early to write off the season, says Hitton?

45:58Well, it's not too early to write off winning things. We still can fight for fifth. Don't forget, Rashford's like a new signing, says Stretford Signal. Do you think the owners misprofiled Sesco, says Jay? No, I think Sesco was brought into a team that doesn't exist. I think we misprofiled Mbamo and Cunha because we don't play that system now we play with one number 10 and that's Bruno we used to play with two number 10s so a lot of our signings were based on a system like Dorgoo was bought for a 3-4-3 he wasn't bought for a back 4 Sesko, Cunha and Mbamo were bought for a 3-4-3 not for a 4-4-3-3 so yeah we bought players that didn't suit the system that we're now playing watch them bring belabor in as left backs as Jay Steve Holland's only notable role done that from McCaffrey if he can do PRV on yesterday's performance what's a PRV don't know what that is should we renew Bruno's contracts as Kiel I couldn't give a shit actually these are things that I just I don't give a shit about like our club is in crisis and we are talking about contracts for players I couldn't give an absolute shit.

47:19I want to talk about replacing our director of football. I want to talk about whether we need a new manager. I want to talk about these owners that are just going to keep sending the club down and down and down. Bruno getting a new contract doesn't do anything for me. I want him here, but if Ten Hag was here, JJ wouldn't have left. He actually gave youth a pass to the first team. He would have been telling JJ what he needs to do and giving him five minutes here and there, says Nigel. Emily Derry says, the rebuild has been so badly planned. The one window full midfield rebuilds at City and Liverpool were completed by people who are competent, backed by owners who will invest.

47:53We have neither, this is Emily. Look, my stance, Emily, and everybody else on that midfield rebuild is none of those players were option A, B or C. They're all D. And it looks like it. And it definitely looks like Carrick didn't get the midfield as he wants because he definitely doesn't rate Santos at the moment. he definitely doesn't trust Santos at all Santos he couldn't get him off quick enough last night doesn't use him in Premier League games so why have we spent 50 million pounds on a player that the manager doesn't rate oh Mark you created PRV performance result vision well nothing PRV's been retired like the bloody hotometer I mean how embarrassing we used to have a transfer hotometer and it got retired in June in the transfer window So PRV has been retired as well.

48:43Performance, result, vision. Well, there was no performance. There was no result and there was no vision. So that's been retired as well. Look at how. Apparently, that's the first time we've lost at halftime in a cup game when we were winning. Sorry, lost when we were winning at halftime in 50 years or something. I certainly would not label you as performative pessimist. However, I would question your positivity predicting a top five finish, not a chance as Andy Atherton. I want to know what Pratt called me a performative pessimist in the Athletic. Because I've got a few words for them. I suppose, well, every Man United fan's a performative pessimist then, aren't they?

49:23Because we've absolutely got nothing to be positive about. Don't think Carrick will be successful. Second half, there is no intensity or anger from Carrick since sunrises. Yeah, I mean, look, obviously there's a lot of talk about Carrick this morning, but I'm very, very eager to balance that off with ownership, of course. But I think when you look at Carrick, my fear is, yes, we've been divorced a lot, sacked a lot of managers, but that doesn't mean sacking Carrick's a bad idea. Like, if he's not the right guy, he's got to go. And I'm not saying sack Carrick, I'm not saying that yet, but what I'm saying is some people out there are saying you can't sack another manager.

50:06But if he's so bad that he needs sacking, then I think you have to consider that. And I think that obviously his... Look, your player ratings gave him a 2 out of 10 in the derby and a 2 out of 10 last night. That's not just because we lost. You know, you can lose a game playing well. You can lose a game because you're unlucky. he's getting low scores because he is managing badly. He's managing games badly. His substitutes are bad. He can't get the team to react. So the big problem with Carrick at the moment is I don't think anybody wants him to be sacked. I don't think anybody is genuinely saying sacked Carrick.

50:58But I think a lot of people are like me. They're like, is he actually any good? Have they literally rewarded him with a full-time Man United job off a bit of a fluke. You know, how much... Is he just Di Matteo? I said this. Is he just... Di Matteo got the Chelsea job in the March and won the FA Cup and the Champions League and he was fucking shit the next season. And the reason they won the Champions League and the Cup is because he came in and catered for the players once and they went out and worked. And then they were like, this won't work. the question is, is Carrick just another Di Matteo?

51:39Research Di Matteo and see what happened when they actually gave him the job. They were fucking rubbish. Sometimes players will just go, we've got rid of Amirim. Let's prove everybody that it was Amirim and work hard for a bit. But they were playing one game a week. We were winning a lot of games by one goal. There was a lot of lucky wins. But that's the board. That's the owners. How could they not see that this might not be what it seems, you know? So that's what worries me. Aaron says, how many of our next five games would we win? We have Fulham, Spurs, Atletico, Madrid, Leeds and Como. At the moment, I see as only winning Spurs.

52:19Aaron, we're a funny team. I never like to look ahead and say we're going to lose five games in October. I said last night against Brentford, we'll either beat them convincingly or they'll beat, sorry, Brighton, or they'll beat us convincingly. I know it's 3-2, but I think they did beat us convincingly. I feel bad for Carrick. He's an inexperienced manager, says Emily, and has made mistakes, but he's out of his depth with a board who hung him out to dry and are too busy protecting themselves to throw him a lifeline. Ollie in by Christmas, says 19th hole golfer. I mean, as mad as that sounds, we probably would do it.

52:59I'm obviously never going to stop supporting Man United. But if we gave the job to Solskjaer next as an interim, we'd probably start winning again and they give him the fucking job again. That's my problem. Give Oli the job. Let him win a load of games. Let him get us in the Champions League, but then fuck him off. Don't give him the job. Don't give another interim the job if they do well. Like, you can't keep doing that. Russell Martin in, says Kian, he's shit. Daniel says Carrick looked broken last night and it epitomises United as the club is broken and some fans agendas and sacking managers won't do anything as the only way to fix things is to get rid of the disgraceful ownership look if it continues down this road for Michael Carrick he is a legend at the club by all accounts he's a nice guy and you know he does care about the club if it's broken I would urge him not to come out and take the blame I would urge him to walk and say that situation in that football club.

53:59I don't recognise it. I just don't like what he did last night coming out, taking the blame. I don't. He was even, you know what? I forgot to say this. He was even asked about the transfer window, right? So he came out. I absolutely am going to say this. I think this is absolute amazing, right? So he came out after the game yesterday and he took the blame and he said, I'm taking the blame. It's my fault, right? Okay. I don't agree with that. I think there's a bigger picture here. Yes, you didn't coach the game very well. You made some mistakes. Maybe you're not the right guy, but you're not the blame for Man United's downfall.

54:35He had the opportunity to answer a question and push the blame where it needs to go. Whether he feels he's been sold short in the transfer market this summer. The team is on me. When we win, people say I'm doing a good job. When we don't, a lot of that is on me. I'm not hiding away from that. It is what it is. So he was literally asked about the summer transfer window and whether he'd been left short. And he took the fucking blame. He said, it's on me. When I win, it's on me. And when I lose, it's on me. Michael, this is not you. This is, you know, that was a great question that you should have just said, look, it wasn't the transfer window anybody wanted.

55:15And he goes, it's on me.

57:03That's what they'll never get rid of him when he's protecting them like that as well. They'll never get rid of him. You know what Amrin would have said? I wanted players, they didn't give me players, and then he'd be sacked today. But when you've got a manager that comes out and defends the board when the board have done him over, Carrick is not good enough to turn water into wine it's crazy that we're asking him to fix everything says Ndeeb you speak the truth and it hurts but someone has to say it I'm glad says Supercar Simphy welcome to the members club thank you very much don't forget to check out the members video after this with Wayne we were speaking about the glazers and the protests on the members section so check that out every Thursday new one up today seeing Carrick stood there looking clueless looking for help from Holland and Woodgate was sobering the writing was on the wall if he didn't do what he needed look CJ it makes me want to throw up every time I see him turning to Steve Holland because I'm like it's like Southgate again these people just I just don't I just don't rate it I just don't rate the situation I hope they can turn it around because it'll be better for everybody but we know the cycle survive the weekend wait for the international break come back with a lot of PR and the idiots will bat the board how to stop it I think you're right Hitton actually I think as long as I think this international break will reset the facilitators.

58:20Halfway through that international break, people will be talking about the Labour's cooking, we're coming back again and we'll all forget this again until the next time. We know momentum now, whatever happens. All current Ineos clubs are bottom of their league, says Green Team. I said this on the match reaction yesterday. Nice are bottom of their league. Lezorne are bottom of their league. I think the women's team, Man United are doing terrible as well. These people just don't know football. It's not a guess. It's not speculation. It's not unfair. All their Ineos clubs are shit. All of them are shit.

58:54And the funny thing is, Nice weren't as bad as Ineos have made them. Nice, all right, they weren't winning the French League, but they weren't a fucking bottom of the French League team. They nearly got relegated last year and they're bottom now. Run them into the ground. Speak to Nice fans. Absolutely shocking. If we'd get Kante, his eventual meltdown would probably be funnier than the one we had at Spurs, says Perk. The club is beyond saving, rotting from the core, says JBS. I was at the match. Delo is the worst player I've ever seen. Sesco gets zero quality. Hoof and hope. Stadium felt the hell coming after first half, says Brian.

59:26Thanks, Brian. Sean says, I've been watching you since the start and United since the mid-80s. Can't watch this anymore. And my much club has been destroyed by these owners. Sorry to hear that, Sean. Too many wastes of space at this club from top to bottom. How often do we need to clear out and rebuild whilst other clubs that do it in the summer, says Cam Robbins. Look, let's take Harry Maguire, right? Didn't even play last night. Speaks very intelligently. Obviously has the interests of Man United at heart, right? It's not Harry Maguire's fault. It's not Harry Maguire's fault Man United are in this position, right?

59:57And I like Harry Maguire. I think he speaks sense. But he's never been good enough for Man United on where we need to go. Harry Maguire's never been a centre-back that would play for Liverpool or Man City and win a league title. He's 34 this year. He's not as good as he used to be. He's a massive influence in the club, but he was never good enough to take us where we need to go. That's not Harry Maguire's fault. That's the board. Like, you know, Harry Maguire is a senior player who is listened to in that dressing room, who was never good enough to take us to a Premier League title, who is 34 this season, still playing at centre-back for Man United.

1:00:35I mean, it's not Harry Maguire's fault, but you can say the same about Deleu. He's our starting right back. He's never been good enough to take us where we need to go, and he's a senior pro. Luke Shaw, the same. Like, it's not their fault. But it's somebody's fault. I lived through the levy years with this transfer MO you're fried. Wait until injuries and Champions League fatigue kicks in. No squad depth. Flipping managers like Burgers won't help. Only new board. Carrick will get the blame though, says Spursy. It does scare me, mate. It does scare me that we're dropping so many points when we're not even tired yet.

1:01:14like the big thing about October and November is the intensity of games are difficult there's no Sabah there's no crappy Carabao Cup opposition it's tough Champions League games and tough Premier League games every three or four days um Amrim had a far stronger CV yet finished 15th if fans can't can read Carrick's attacking patterns without data or re-watching clips what stopped coaches like Fark, Glasner or Andrews from figuring them out and exposing United is YT Ian Wright made a point yesterday that all INEOS teams are falling apart. United are abysmal. It is the top trickling down, says Aaron.

1:01:48Would any top manager even want their job, says Mr McElviss. I think there's always going to be somebody, but it would be career suicide to come and work under this ownership and this board at the moment for anybody. Because you're not going to get backed financially and they only want you to be a head... I mean, look, that's not been mentioned. Remember, you're a head coach at Man United. You're not a manager. So it doesn't work. I hate that anyway. We need a manager, not a head coach. The problem is, Mark, he was a great player for us, but my God, he's so uninspiring and laid back. I fear that mentality is rubbing off on the players, says Warrior of Sporter.

1:02:23Oh, so like Carrick's not charismatic, ambitious, exciting, so the players don't feed off it. I've never heard that.

1:02:37I mean, all I can say in my working life is that passionate, enthusiastic, hardworking managers are more inspiring than quiet, uninspiring, laid-back managers, definitely, yeah. No top manager is going to come to this mess, says Ray. Even a good manager won't work without the right backing, says Daz sack Carrick and install Carrick as interim says Simon how Delo managed to play 250 games for the club showed Aaron Ipster I don't know how Delo didn't get subbed on Sunday and I don't know how he didn't get subbed yesterday he literally cost us the goal but you know I don't know it was two the draw the second goal it was the second goal Oli Gunners welcome to members club Mark's metaphor is great United is the problem not the manager says Ndeeb Conte no top manager is coming to this mess is everything they wouldn't The scary thing is they wouldn't go near a Nagalsman or a Conte anyway because they're too opinionated.

1:03:37They want a puppet. I've worked with men like Carrick, never speaks up against those above, even when it's clear they're making errors. Happy to be there and knows he's not getting it better elsewhere. It's interesting, William, because on Stick to United, Wayne has said it two weeks in a row. He's literally said it and it's his mate. He said he needs to be banging on doors. he needs to be you know kicking people up the arse if he's not going to do it in press conferences and interviews after the game fine but behind the scenes he needs to be banging on doors he needs to be I don't get the impression he is we don't know but I don't get the impression he is when the fans are singing what the fuck how was that then this team will now stick its head in the sand still finishing fifth marks as average angle I think we have to why don't you Neville and Rooney put together a consortium with some wealthy Middle Eastern Asian businessmen and make a bid for the club surely Neville has some contacts in the region I mean I don't I'd definitely put my name to something like that Atari knowing our luck it'll be bloody Rio who does it and then we're really in trouble Mark like you I want what's best for United and if you're honest with yourself Karik ain't the best says Nug MUFC MPB hope you're doing well we all need to come together and get the ownership out and stay together until they sell we'll never be successful until they're out says MUFC MPB look I don't disagree with you on that mate respect But are there not 75 % of United content creators still rimming the glazes and saying nothing like they never do?

1:05:08Do we not have like 90 % of the journalists still rimming the glazes for access to press conferences? Even on social media, we've still got probably 50 % of our fan base rimming the glazes. So I don't know how you bring everybody together when some people are resolutely not going to do it because of the access they get to the club, etc. I don't know. Also, I think journalists are not fans. I don't think journalists are fans. Was there not a journalist who said, if Qatar get older Man United, I won't go and watch Man United play anymore? But they're there turning up for Glazer and Ineos games. I mean, this is what I mean Everyone's got different opinions Respect, but you're never going to get everybody together When people have such extreme opinions Client journalists, enemy of the club Says Jims What do you think of Conte or Xavi?

1:06:02Says Ryle, Xavi's already got a job I'll get hate for this, but I would take relegation If it meant the Glazers and Ineos sold up to Qatar I would I would, Wilbur, I'd do a year in the championship If it meant getting rid of this ownership Yeah I don't think many people wouldn't I don't think this fan base isn't Opposed to hardship to get what we need But What I don't want is no Europe And the Glazers and Ineos still in charge next year Do you think getting third was overachieving Says Pedro No, no, I don't I think one game a week and everybody else was shit Opened up the door to third and we took it But there's no way we would have got third If we'd been in the Champions League Sat behind the bench Carrick has no fight aura or juice.

1:06:46He looks resigned. Players feed off his energy. Whole squad looked like they know it's over, says Brian. Morning, Mark. I tell you what, Fulham are a very energetic team as well. You can get at them defensively and we might be able to counter them. That's a positive. They do concede goals, but Fulham will be very energetic. In fact, if Fulham just play a little bit compact and play energetic and counter, they'll kill us. My missus is in labour and asked to have you on some normality in the background, says L7. Well, it's been a slightly longer show for you today actually so I hope the labour goes well good luck don't push till they tell you to C and King welcome to the members club thank you very much and the thing is Mark nobody's standing up against the glazes and we aren't doing enough we're being sucked dry and they keep getting away with it says the great savagery do you think they'll spend in January it doesn't matter Sinead they should have spent it in the summer shouldn't they window is on the owners but we can also not ignore the fact that it looks like Carrick doesn't have the awareness to manage at this level Ashley, welcome to the members club Thank you very much for that Carrick was the plan to get Southgate in Sister Galahad Look, remember People talk about Nagelsmann or Conte They will never get a manager like that in Because they won't be a head coach If they go for somebody else They will go for another puppet So they will go for maybe Oli They will maybe go for Southgate Maybe an Eddie Howe They will not bring a manager is not going to solve the problem.

1:08:14Carrick probably isn't the right guy, but it doesn't mean that the right guy will ever come in. The only change is regime change that's going to save United, I fear. United Women are bottom in the WSL, says McAlvis. Is it really that the Glazers don't want to sell or are there other parties to play to this? Super Bowl champions just got sold for 10 billion. There's money out there. Look at people buying percentages in Liverpool Football Club. Like there's money out there. I just don't think they want to sell. We're always three years away, says Abbey. Daniel, welcome to the members club. This shows how important Casemiro was, says Ashton.

1:08:50Oh, we didn't replace him. The journalist is Matt Slater for The Athletic. Do Arsenal look ominous? Is the old Marcus Rashford back? Is the name of the article? OK, I've got to have a look at that. But it's behind a paywall though, isn't it? Never heard of the journalist either, so thank you, Yusuf. The problem is there are no alternatives to Glynios, so fans focus on the next nearest thing, which is the coach and the players. There's no hopes, says Pommy. We don't know if we will have our captain next year as we build the future around him, but each to their own, I guess, says Kiel. What's happened to Thompson?

1:09:20It's another young player that will not get used, isn't it? Put him in the list with Leon and Kone and Obi. Right. Thank you, everybody, for watching. A long show tonight, today, but it's been very, very good. I think we've got Ben Jacobs on with Beth at one. That'll be good. Interesting to get some insight at the club. I'm sure it'll be Michael Carrick's the guy and blah, blah, blah but we'll see I'm not blah, blah in Ben by the way I'm just saying I'm sure that's the PR that's going to come out I hadn't recovered from last night says Mojo and this morning I get a notification from United saying they've just saying have you checked Adidas Man United collection oh yeah money, money, money, money keep putting money into the club they'll get away with it thank you so much everybody for tuning in I am back with you at 8 o 'clock tonight because it's Thursday.
