Micah was an embarrassment to pundits yesterday. He kept saying hes not defending rashford and then proceeded to defend rashford with zero argument for 10 minutes.
HE was saying rashford has been man united sa scapegoat and perhaps there are plenty there there f reason reasona all the bad things at the club. Move along along. People linking it to race defending need educating.
Big Meeks is telling a different story today about Rashford. Not sure why he was defending him yesterday on Sky, just because he scored 30 goals two seasons ago? Be fair and honest mate, Gary and Roy are right on point
I think the sky producers may have scripted that. Only explanation cause there is no defence for Rashford. And Walker? Practising for his next career as an Olympic diver!
He knew he was awful yesterday so trying to make excuses and change the narrative but still brought up terrible points to try and protect his ego...Micah needs to stay humble, eh....
@@shoppingforleaves3162 excellent seasons? You mean half seasons? He has had 3 good seasons all 2 seasons apart from each other. Is that what you call "good"
Come on Micah, give it up with defending Rashford and saying "it's come to this". Rashford only has himself to blame. He's not looked bothered for a long time. If I was a utd fan I'd be cheering after seeing a manager who is finally leaving him out
@@Theguyman We all have stuff going on in our personal lives, but the difference is if we don't work we don't get paid. If he doesn't work or produce the correct results at work, he still gets paid...A LOT! That's why people get pissy at this argument, because it's nonsense. Roy Keane said it best.
Alan is spot on with Rashford view …. Michah had a bad day at the office with the Gary Nev Debate, never guessed it was because of his lack of a trim 😂…. sounds like there is underlying issue that is being skirted around but Amorin is clear - he wants commitment….
Possibly Richards had someone from Rashfords PR team ask him to go easy on him. Keane mentioned 2 years ago when Maguire was getting memed on that he got a similar ask. Though I have to say I think Neville was going a little overboard in the theorising. There needed to be some pushback on it.
Why do the Media talk about Rashford like he was a world beater. His mostly been below average for years and regardless of the salary, he is not good enough to play for a top premier league club.
It's the power of PR. His agency did the charity eating fluff piece (which got Rashford on the most generous donor's list despite it just being big corporations that donated and none of Rashfords personal wealth 😂) and he's been a media darling ever since despite rolling around in his 6 rolls royces and achieving precisely nothing on a football pitch for years
Yeah let's all wonder why he picked them 2 too defend but the one getting abused who's not English he doesn't mind getting called out..Walker isn't honest at home what makes anyone think he was gonna act differently on the pitch and Rashford is always backed like he's elite even though he's never even been average for more than 3 months at a time.
Fed up of giving City a pass because of injuries. Where was the sympathy for ETH when he had the same issue. If it involves Pep he gets special treatment from the pundits.
@@peterparkerlovesmjso isn’t that further proving the point that injuries are absolutely devastating to a football team as even the best manager crumbles without his squad
@@peterparkerlovesmjYeah , but he has managed Barca with the best team ever, Bayern and City where they have 115 charges. If he is that great, i would like to see him defend the title with these many injuries!!
Micah, you've got to put it to bed. Too many people think you're accusing Amorim and Gary Neville of racism (which is a wild and unfounded interpretation IMO). You did have a bit of a howler on Sky, but I'd have thought that's because you care personally about the players, not because you thought Gary was being racist. If you think he needs personal support, support with mental health, more separation of public & private life - Don't let people misinterpret what you're saying. Also, it's ironic how today's fan landscape hate "cancel culture" but they're ready to kick you off Sky after interpreting your opinion as playing the race card.
Even as a Newcastle fan, I'm amazed nobody called out Bruno for diving; likewise no mention of Walker's cheating to try and get Hojlund sent off - the fa need to stamp this out with retrospective action, not least because the ref forgot to book Bruno, despite giving a free kick for the dive
8:00 i love you Micah but be honest, you were running defence for your pal Rashy by mentioning 30 goals two years ago repeatedly, you were not trying to embarrass his current form
Amorim is the first coach I really believe will get us back challenging in 2 seasons when he's rooted out the one's he can't trust and has built his team. He respects the history of utd and the values that brought so much success and he's not intimated by the big players and won't bow down to player power 👌🇮🇪
I don’t think Micah understands real pressure… what Beckham went through after 98 WC was real pressure not people being mean on social media. Becks rolled up his sleeve and went to on to win the treble.
Everyone saying Man Utd were poor but they had 50% possession against city at home, can’t remember the last time someone had that possession against city at their ground
My eyes don't fool me. Lineker ALSO appears to be going through something. That segment on Rashford almost made him emotional. Something is up with Lineker.
yeah but that happened in the last couple seasons, it was just hard to execute enough counters vs rodri. now they have no alien freak snuffing 10 counters a game
God, you guys are hard to listen to sometimes! United try to play a killer ball every time? Are you nuts? Do you even watch these things with an analytical eye or just rat off the last thing you remember saying about them? Amorim has changed that completely. ten Hag used to do that 15 games ago. Not doing it is by far the best change Amorim has made Do better, all of you
I think MOTD missed a trick not having Shearer in the studio on Saturday, that would of been great.. I can see that going down hill when Gary leaves it’ll be a massive shame😔
Rashford is just a lazy entitled millionaire at this point. The players have to change at that club. Also great to see this show how Pep is with a team when he doesn't have the world best talent available. I've always said he could never do what Klopp and Jose could do with average players. Pep has always had the best talent in the world his entire career.
To be fair, Jose was a bit of a chequebook manager as well at times, but he's got his Porto and Inter teams as proof he could do it with less resource. I think Klopp is the real counterpoint in the sense that he vastly improved players.
Why is no one in media talking about about mancity extra 15 more charges, and they are wondering why pep is not doing so well lately. When they add more charges and not drop a few charges, and its concluded. Waiting for verdi🤷🏾♂️
What else do you want them to say? There is no new information, so why would they just repeat themselves for a few idiots who spam comment "115...115..." Get yourself out there, kid. Touch some grass.
Maguire, McTominay were lynched online but were still total pros on far less money. Amorim is clearly NOT seduced by Rashford's potential, but convinced by actual reality and deserves massive credit for making this call.
I actually agree with Micah Richards on rashfords personal life. It has nothing to do with the pitch. BUT where was this defence when the media and commentators used to do the same thing to Paul Pogba- commenting on his hairstyles and dancing. He didn’t have the same energy there
Kyle Walker’s antics shows the lack of confidence in the squad. Top teams and players NEVER throw themselves to the ground, NEVER show weakness, should have been sent off or asked the ref to send him off due to being a complete fanny
Why does Micah keep mentioning it as a "sad story" that rashford isnt scoring 30 goals a season? Did he ever do that before? No. Wasnt sad then. Hes an overpaid brat who doesnt play football for the right reasons. Simple as.
I guess sometimes things are not so obvious for some.. much of the problem with Man City most likely stems from the pressure felt from the financial fair play accusations and the charges, imagine if you can...you are a player on the team and for the past, roughly, 8-10 years you and your team have dominated the league, winning most of everything, collecting trophies and medals galore.. all this while hearing accusations of cheating, only for those accusations to become a reality, and then realising all of those things you collected might, and should be taken from you if those accusations are proved correct.. that is some burden to be carrying. I believe that the players are not only affected by what might happen, they know it is most likely going to happen. Everyone is concerned about the players being injured and not being good enough to play, its basically the same team that had to endure and prevail through injuries last season, this season they just have more pressing issues.
Before I watch let me guess …. The derby was bad Man United didn’t play well even though they was the better team through out the whole match and playing away! Let me guess … it’s so tough for Man City with allllll the injuries and missing the best CDM to ever play the game so they can no longer play football. Let me guess little to no credit given to Man United and Amorim but they might throw in a light Amad big up in there… wonder how much I got correct before even watching
Rashford has to show attitude, seriousness and commitment for a career that only lasts 10 to 15 years. Marcus played very well for 2 years, got a big contract, then, down the tools. Because he knows it will be difficult for MANU to sell him with his huge wage. Rooney, Beckham, Giggs, Scholes were week in week out: legends.
Footballers forget to think of themselves as the team. When they look at the team objectively like it's not them, they start easing up. But yeah, City are tired, especially picking up the slack of missing players and form. United manager has the right approach and they can only improve
With Rashford I do wonder if he doesnt have that many friends in the squad. He was big mates with Lingard, and Jesse got moved on because of his attitude and hasnt done anything since. This latest depression kinda started when all the stuff with Sancho was happening last year too. I do wonder what all the foreign signings think of Rashford, and whether he gets on with them, whether they are trying to help him. I was kinda happy when he was spotted with Casemiro at the NBA over the international break, because at least that meant he was hanging out with his team mates, as much as Neville wanted to stick the boot in for it.
Alan I was at the game when you scored your 200 and 1st goal against Portsmouth what was it like to be on the pitch when the whole stadium is singing the hey shearer song for what felt like half an hour ,merry Christmas lads keep up the good work
So basically what Man United were doing the whole season last year, and these people were going nuts, but Pep gets all the grace. Although Pep never struggled in any of the teams. Kept buying best players!!
"Gvardiol moving to centre back" -his actual position by the way. Could have played him left back with them having stones on the bench if that's where he should be. Too many players running out of steam at the same time. They've been class for years but some key legs are going. Couple of transfer windows with quite a few ins and outs is what's glaringly obvious for city in my amateur (neutral and unbiased) opinion.
Look at Saka missing THAT penalty in the EUROS and all the horrible abuse he got from 'so called fans' He managed to use that as fuel to power on and to become one of the best wingers in the world right now. Rashford has no excuse and I don't understand why people still try and protect him!!!
That was a clear Red Card on Robertson. It doesn’t matter if the touch was heavy just as it doesn’t matter if the touch is heavy when a goalkeeper rushes out his goal and brings the striker down in the penalty area. The argument here is that the heavy touch can be argued only to have taken place because of the illegal challenge that follows. I thought that’s basic football knowledge but apparently it’s not.
everyone in the comments melting down about micah on sky yesterday when there has to be someone on the panel giving an opposing view, cause whether you like it or not someone has to be there to 'balance' out the arguments instead of just spending 20 minutes shitting on one player
I agree...football like any sport is about opinions and if people don't agree that's fine then just agree to disagree...On any televised sport it's good to have differing views as it encourages debate on screen and off...⚽️⚽️🏟👏🏻👏🏻
@@Zoro3-3 What happened to ‘they wasted a billion on a bunch of average players’? You cannot have it both ways. Give them their flowers or admit you’re a hypocrite.
People saying city need to re build…. Pep has secretly tried to do that but it’s failed…. He’s let players to, he’s signed a good few new players and it’s not worked let’s be honest
Micah, the possession was relatively equal. Completely disagree on the analysis of Manchester United always playing the final pass. Very different from the previous Manchester Derbies.
It spills over into his personal life because he does things in his personal life like going to Ireland to go on the lash, and missing training because of a hangover. I truly wish him all the best if he's having personal or mental problems. But I dont want to sound callous. But accepting a huge wage that he's on, from Manchester United, comes with a high level of scrutiny. He can pay for whatever help he might want to try out to help with the pressures. I hope he is. Drinking at least isnt the help he needs.
Micah can't track his own side of the debate. Argues that people shouldn't talk about Rashford's personal life and simultaneously speculates that Rashford's issues go deeper than football. Complains that people spotlight Rashford when other players have similarly poor form, but continues to make it more about Rashford than anybody else.
If Leeds had not dropped form and gone up automatically instead of Ipswich, Southampton would probably have faced Ipswich in the playoffs and not had enough against them
City might have an excuse for while their starters might be injured, but there is never an excuse at this level for not working your balls off. What a disappointment (for both sides)
City players are showing what happens when you play 60 games a year for club & country, with little or no rest. You get injured, or get less rest so form drops..
Love Micah and his energy and punditry when it comes to defending but he waffled on Rashford and Garnacho badly. His wild stories about his playing days and a bit of lack of discipline don’t help when he tries to defend the two.
The problem with man city is still trying to play the same system with players who either can’t play it or are not fit enough. Pep needs to shore up his defense & midfield in January and change his system until he can re jig!!
We all know Rashford is dead at Manu, but he's still a decent player. So, come January's window, where's the best place for him to go? I reckon he'd be ok somewhere like Palace or Everton.
Micah was an embarrassment to pundits yesterday. He kept saying hes not defending rashford and then proceeded to defend rashford with zero argument for 10 minutes.

@Footy5sPOV i doubt it, he hasn't mentioned that sort of thing even once
Micah just waffling about rashford. He's crap. Had two good seasons since he's been in the squad. Doesn't deserve the wages or the status.
Rashford wouldn't have got on the bench in any of Ferguson's sides. Considering him a main man is a testament to how far Utd have fallen.
Finally a manager that sat rashy down. Jose was his father, ole was his friend but this man is his reckoning. I hope he smarts up.
People said the same about ETH when he dropped him over his behaviour and attitude. Rashford will outlast Amorim as he has all the others
You say that as if he didn't have excellent seasons under both of those managers.

Spent billions so not much needs to be said. Doing what’s expected after spending that much amount of money
Let's keep going under the radar, it suits us this season
Keep cying ❤ @@Zoro3-3
I’m sick of pundits including fantasy league in their analysis, it has nothing to do with anything

What happened to ‘they wasted a billion on a bunch of average players’?
You cannot have it both ways. Give them their flowers or admit you’re a hypocrite.
A question for the next pod. If Alan had not had his 2 serious injuries, what would have been his premier league goals tally?
I think Alan and Gary should play FPL next season, just for one season. They should create a mini league for the pod as well. Would be nice
the 130 charges probably playing a part. The players will all be looking for a new club soon!
Micah bursting onto the pub scene with his pint-pulling.
People saying city need to re build…. Pep has secretly tried to do that but it’s failed…. He’s let players to, he’s signed a good few new players and it’s not worked let’s be honest
Why don't MotD have a rule that whenever Leicester, Man City or Newcastle play each other in a Saturday game, the OG trio aren't allowed a day off?
Micah, the possession was relatively equal. Completely disagree on the analysis of Manchester United always playing the final pass. Very different from the previous Manchester Derbies.
Gary is fucking brilliant! (not Neville btw)
It spills over into his personal life because he does things in his personal life like going to Ireland to go on the lash, and missing training because of a hangover.
I truly wish him all the best if he's having personal or mental problems. But I dont want to sound callous. But accepting a huge wage that he's on, from Manchester United, comes with a high level of scrutiny. He can pay for whatever help he might want to try out to help with the pressures. I hope he is. Drinking at least isnt the help he needs.
I for one hope Marcus finds his form again! I really do. But if he doesn’t turn it around very soon he has to go and that will be so sad
Surprised Micah made it, thought he'd got lost up Rashford's backside.
No academy players. Liverpool had a tough last season and the youngsters came to the rescue
Micah can't track his own side of the debate. Argues that people shouldn't talk about Rashford's personal life and simultaneously speculates that Rashford's issues go deeper than football. Complains that people spotlight Rashford when other players have similarly poor form, but continues to make it more about Rashford than anybody else.
If Leeds had not dropped form and gone up automatically instead of Ipswich, Southampton would probably have faced Ipswich in the playoffs and not had enough against them
City might have an excuse for while their starters might be injured, but there is never an excuse at this level for not working your balls off. What a disappointment (for both sides)
Did Micah just say united are only playing long balls since amorims come in lol. They’ve been doing that for years. He’s dropping them from doing that
"who's winning the League?" "Nottingham Forest"
WHAT TIMELINE ARE WE IN?!?
City players are showing what happens when you play 60 games a year for club & country, with little or no rest.
You get injured, or get less rest so form drops..
That wasn't what Micah was sayinj yesterday. This is a full 180 change in his analysis...embarrassing...
Love Micah and his energy and punditry when it comes to defending but he waffled on Rashford and Garnacho badly. His wild stories about his playing days and a bit of lack of discipline don’t help when he tries to defend the two.
The problem with man city is still trying to play the same system with players who either can’t play it or are not fit enough. Pep needs to shore up his defense & midfield in January and change his system until he can re jig!!
If they don't let Amorim do his thing there's no chance for Man U, look at Arsenal a 3 year process
Delighted Alan pointed out Micah's pint. Absolute disgrace.
Micah fighting his BVM hard while discussing Rashford
Once again no Forest chat. This is a joke.
One of the best games of the weekend too and I'm not a Forest fan.
Was there massive overhaul of the squad and huge spending a genius move, or is it fluke?
City looked like they were trying to lose. The penalty for no reason and then not stopping Amads goal.
So right Sir Gary, I support Arsenal, some of those fans come across as rude and aggressive.
They make me cringe and their language is abysmal
We all know Rashford is dead at Manu, but he's still a decent player. So, come January's window, where's the best place for him to go? I reckon he'd be ok somewhere like Palace or Everton.
