I think he is trying to justify Utd reluctantly sticking with Ten Hag after doing a series of conversations with other managers.

Also thereâs a difference between Liverpool speaking to potential managers and Manchester United speaking to potential managers. We didnât have a manager already present that we were looking to replace.
United decided that ETH wasnât good enough , spoke to a bunch of managers and then decided on keeping ETH. They then compounded that by giving him a huge load of money to spend.

Absurd position to take, because that process lands them squarely where they are now. Losing comprehensively at home to a rival is bad, but it happens. Their real problem now is that they are right back to the level of uncertainty at the start of that process. Any vague signal of confidence they provided him at the conclusion of it is now moot.

Neville is constantly embarrassing himself over the gymnastics he performs to present things at Utd in a positive light. Sky are long past having to do an intervention, unless they dont care on paying someone to say delusional things so it can be dunked on over SM

Itâs all about the views and clicks.
Truth doesnât sell, controversy does.
Donât think Amorim would even have been a serious contender. They might have had some preliminary discussions. The intent was primarily to take Kloppâs team forward and not do a huge overhaul of the team.
Yeah if I remember correctly he was ruled out because his tactical approach was considered too radically different to what we were doing.

He finished yesterday by doubling down on his previous prediction that united would finish above us. Stated âI have to back my teamâ.
No dickhead, youâre paid to be a pundit not a supporter.
Carra gets some flak here but I think he finds a good balance between clearly supporting Liverpool but also being honest in his contributions

He can double down on all his predictions that he wants. Forget top 4, Teams like Newcastle, Spurs, Chelsea will make it difficult for United to even be #8.

The press were reporting on who we were supposedly interested in talking to, and some of this started before Hughes was even announced. From what I remember when Slotâs name first came up Alonso and Almorim were still not ruled out and some of the reporting were claiming he was Hughesâ preferred option.

Top 3 are miles ahead of the rest. The next 7 could be in any order. Brighton and Villa will be up there also

Iâm picking Villa as a top 4 team.
The others,yeah including Brighton would be 5th onwards.
A good run by any other team like Brentford for instance can even put United in danger of finishing 10th.

Carragher trying not to be biased makes him come across as an idiot at times.
That made the Carragher dig even more delightful when he said it all used to the Glazers fault.
