Patrice Evra: “I really don't understand the lack of support behind Michael Carrick; he's one of us and he's doing very well.

There's been negative analysis from Scholesy, but also from Roy Keane and Gary Neville. It annoys me because we want to be in the top four, and those comments are unnecessary. But this is what you do when you work in TV. You can't be positive; you have to be negative.

Most of these guys get a managerial job and get fired straightaway. I said to Neville: "It's easy to talk on TV. When you were at Valencia, they asked you for paella, and you gave them fish and chips.

People can't forget what they have done as a manager. As players, they're legends, but as managers, they haven't done a great job.”

Talk your talk Patrice. It has to be jealously why they’re coming for Carrick’s neck. How are three failed managers turned pundits going to talk shît about a former player? It just reeks of bitterness.

Ex-players who don’t support their club or former team mates are always funny style to me, unless something exceptional happened to cause a rift.

But David Raya wastes more time than any GK he said?

Its not just ex players the fans as well think they are entitled we have to have a top/named/brand coach/manager in charge in England. We've seen with both Yanited and Spurs even that doesnt guarantee success if you get them type of coaches. When you compared it to Real Barca Bayern Juve Milan PSG theyve all hired a variety of coaches from the best to failed to names to inexperienced ones. But in England the idea seems to be to get one of the top jobs who need to have won 2 Euro Comps and 3 Domestic league titles otherwise you arent viewed good enough by the ex players or fans.

Regarding Carrick and the football being played is crap. Who is actually play good football in the Prem and across Europe presently? Como? ( And they dont have any European comp) I just see a whole lot of teams running on fumes trying to get to the end matches hoping they havent sustained any more injuries before moving onto the next game/competition.

That’s a helluva hype video to announce Lingard

Wonderkid that bounced around too much. PSV, PSG, Leipzig, now Tottenham

Shoulda stuck it out at Barca, La Masia kids are given time to grow

Fati and Gavi arent growing back new knee ligaments. Yamal's groin will be an on going issue for the next few seasons unless he is forced to get surgery. + the attempted murder of Pedri who isnt even from La Masia.

Xavi Simons was in the academy during the time a delegation from Brazil went to visit La Masia and they quickly realised it was nothing but hype. They came out and said:

Based on form this Wolves Liverpool game may actually be fun

Barca medical staff is a separate conversation

They run kids into the ground but they give out playing time

Over playing and treating 16-18 year olds like they are a decade older physically isnt allowing them to grow. It shortening careers both physically and mentally.
