Episode 15 | Carrick Masterclass, Arsenal Slip

Michael Carrick steps into the United dugout and immediately does the unthinkable… beats Man City.

New manager bounce or football heritage restored? We break down what actually changed and whether Carrick deserves more than just a caretaker label.

Arsenal, meanwhile, drop points against Nottingham Forest and miss a huge opportunity to put daylight between themselves and the chasing pack. Was it just one of those games… or the start of something more worrying?

That leads to the big, uncomfortable question:

If Arsenal don’t win the league this season, should Mikel Arteta be under real pressure? Or is that pure football Twitter madness?

We finish by looking ahead to Arsenal vs Manchester United next week.

Momentum vs expectation. Pressure vs freedom. And plenty of opinions you probably won’t agree with.

As always, zero balance, maximum conviction.

It finally happened… Michael Carrick gets the keys at Manchester United.

We break down:

• What Carrick as interim actually means for United
• Whether this is calm before the storm or just more chaos
• And if anyone genuinely knows what the long-term plan is (spoiler: probably not)

We also get into:

• Multi-club ownership and whether football’s heading in the right direction
• The grey areas nobody really wants to talk about
• And how it’s quietly changing competition across leagues

Plus…

• Are Arsenal actually on for the quadruple?
• Or is the hype running ahead of reality (again)?

As ever, plenty of strong opinions, zero tactical diagrams, and absolutely no fence-sitting.

Give it a listen and let us know where you disagree most 👀⚽
