Zabaleta : _some people criticise Pogba_ Souness :- _why are you looking at me mate ?_ 😂😂😂😂😂

zabaletta is trying to so hard to not smile

Gary will never blame the manager. Getting fired at Valencia changed him.

I’m here after the 4-0 thrashing by Everton. Gary Neville has been correct from the start. It’s a structural problem and not a managerial one. The players lack the hard work and compassion to win.

As soon as Neville defended Pogba Sourness was raging. He didn't even listen to the next question.

Gary Neville gets into a lot of HEATED debates lately

Zabaleta looks like a russian Assassin but speaks like a professor. If he doesn’t speak ur shook of him. When he does u respect him ✊

Souness: “no, no, no, now we’re getting into specifics” Continued argument talking about specific players

Zabaleta was GOLD in this interview

Graeme is right, Mourinho hasn't improved a single player since he took over. Alexis was far better at Arsenal, Lukaku was the top scorer at his last season with Everton, Matic was a title winner with Kante in midfield at Chelsea, Rashford was on fire under Van Gaal for United and England when he played as a central striker, Fred was amazing for Shaktar and was wanted by Man City, Mata was POTY for 2 seasons running at Chelsea, Pogba was a WC winner with France and one of the best midfield players in the world at Juventus, Bailly and Martial have huge potential that is being squandered at the moment. These are not all bad players. Some of them aren't the right standard, but they're not all awful.

Zabaleta's English is phenomenal- which is rare for South American players. Massive credit to him!

loool all up in the comments you see people backing Souness over Neville. Now with that everton result, we see Neville was right about those dead ass players LOOOL

Neville's gone too soft on managers ever since his failure of a stint in Valencia. He used to be way more critical of managers for poor performances. Give us that Gary back because Scholesy can't drive this anti-Mourinho train alone.

Lee Cattermole player manager is the answer

Gary Neville should be a politician. Great at dodging questions!

11:23 😂😂 oh Zabaleta, what a guy

If this was any other team Neville would be blasting Mourinho.

For once i agree with Souness I'm a united fan we have midfielders like Fred and Pereira that can play football but he decides to play Matic and Fellani when they can't pass forwards

"well I wouldn't play Fellaini" exactly!! First time I agree with Souness, he's spot on

8:10 Gary called Graeme "Martin" for some reason and he needed to be reminded that he was called Graeme lool.

Graeme Souness in my opinion is sometimes an incredibly biased pundit but this time he is absolutely spot on, Gary acknowledges the football isn't good, acknowledges that Mourinho isn't getting the best out of players, acknowledges that Mourinho still loves the slow, physical, safe midfielders instead of the quick, more modern and technical midfielders, and he still says that Mourinho is the right man?

For once i agree with Souness, you've got players that were in the final, semi final and quarter finals of the world cup in this team . Debatebly the best keeper in the world and players like Martial , Sanchez and Fred. The board have hired the wrong manager 3 times but if you can't get these players playing better then go

What an honest interview - good luck mate, hope you make a full recovery. I’m not a Liverpool fan but I have to say the club, the fans, the culture and what it means to Liverpool make me proud - they are the fabric of football in England and it feels right they are back competing at the top - where they belong.

Martial and rashford were better for louis van gaal.

Very disappointed in neville's attitude. Don't lie to us. We all know that mourinho clearly isn't working with the players. We saw it Chelsea and at Real. He has been here for three years, gone through 5 transfer windows and has failed to create an identity for the team with 400 million. Hell, Sarri and Emery have already implemented their philosophies successfully and have been managers for their clubs for a few months!

Zabaleta controlled his laughter.. Look how red Gary's ear was.. 😂😂

Did Gary Neville just say Lukaku wasn't a big player at Everton?

8:14 he calls him martin

alex ferguson won a league playing 442 and with tom cleverly in midfield. phil jones, ashley young and welbeck playing somewhere in the team aswell that season. jose and nevilles excuses are invalid. fergie shows what can be achieved when u have the ambition to play attacking football trying to win games instead of keeping it tight for 80 minutes trying to nick the game

WTF is wrong with Neville defending Jose all the time?? Even Sounes is talking sense

United is rotten from top to bottom the answer is Souness and Neville are both right Mourinho is a serial winner but he’s not the right fit for United,the owners are parasites with no interest in football,the chairman is very good at creating financial partnerships but useless at getting transfers done,many of the players are still Ferguson’s signings and at least 70% aren’t good enough to play for United they’re half way through the season and still on negative goal difference! Think about that for a minute NEGATIVE GOAL DIFFERENCE Manchester United ! some of those players must look at themselves in Manchester United’s dressing room getting paid vast amounts of money and think they must be dreaming.until a lot changes nothing will change.

The more people defend mourinho the longer & deeper Uniteds problems will be. Watch how they play & put it in laymans terms....they simply are not good enough!! Mourinho's tactics are all wrong. In this game, 1 shot on target..the penalty!! I always said when fergie goes so will the glory years...look whats happened..moyes( sacked),van gaal( sacked), mourinho...just a matter of time cos the time is coming when united fans will say " enough is enough". Mourinho lives on his reputation..in the past. It doesn't matter what you did ten years ago..it matters whst you do NOW!! Y.N.W.A!!😂😆👍👍👍👍

As a man united fan...i just want to know why jose buys attacking players if he's going to play defensive. I just want to know

6.49......Souness can't believe this load of complete bollocks he's listening to

United's transfer policy is sadly lacking! Central defence , goalkeeper & midfield dynamo required! Woodward wouldn't release funds during the summer! The Glazers are robbing the club of its profits which should be reinvested in the team! P.s. @Sounness- Sanchez had been dropped by Arsenal & Lakaku is a squad player not a Shearer, Van Basten or Van Nistelroy.

Neville: So if you were the manager tomorrow, what would you do Graeme? Souness: Id get the midfield playing two touch... Neville: You would get a midfield containing Fellaini playing two touch?!

SiMpLe QuEsTiOn gArY, YeS Or No, aRe UnItEd CRAP?

Gary knows United won’t improve under defensive minded Mourinho, don’t know why he is not admitting it!

sure a jigsaw is missing, but mourinho is smashing the puzzle to pieces...

Why is no one pointing out that the current Man Utd squad is a frankenstein mix & match from three very different coaches? You have signings from Moyes, Van Gaal and Mourinho all supposed to fit into one system...but they were signed for three different systems. Not only that but some of them were signed as sudden opportunities and don't fit into any of those three systems. Sanchez is a good example - a player that needs a team built around him in order to perform well. Klopp and Guardiola have built the teams they want, with players that fit into their systems. Wenger did too, but he obviously had 22 years to do so. But Man Utd keeps signing big names in order to sell shirts, instead of signing players for one single system. I'd rather see Man Utd go back to basics. Get rid of the disruptive egomaniac elements (Mourinho, Sanchez, etc) and create a system where the flair players like Pogba and Lingard are allowed freedom to roam and attack when surrounded by the more disciplined players like Matic and Valencia. Use Lukaku as a battering ram and overload opposition with a Martial-Lukaku-Rashford front three, supported by excellent passers behind them.

Zab’s English is great

Souness 100% correct. The fact that most of these pundits aren’t picking up on the fact that mourinho plays 3 DM’s every time united play (even in a 4-3-3!) is absolutely ridiculous. No wonder no one watches the lamesteam media anymore

3 years later, were still having the same conversation!!

Souness would out stare Superman's laser eyes.

Mourinho was to blame for that result. United’s midfield had no creativity which enabled City to walk through it. Mourinho is also destroying Dalot,Pereira,Bailly and Fred who he bought for 52 million to sit on the bench yet he complains about a lack of funds for transfers.

Mourinho this season vs the Moyes season All comps until 11/11 Points 20 Jose/21 Moyes Games won 8/10 Defeats 5/3 Points vs top 6 1/4 Scored 27/31 Against 25/18 Top Scorer 6/8 (x2) Clean Sheets 3/7 Cup Knocked out by Derby/Beat Liverpool & Norwich Top teams played 5/5 Only one of them had 2 years in the job & spent £400m plus along with two frees earning the highest wage in the league. The other was new & only had Fellaini.

8:49 he is calling Graeme Martin😂

Regardless of whether Pogba played or not, Jose had a bunch of creative and attacking players on the bench Why play 3 defensive midfielders who can barely run or pass very far when you have Fred on the bench? Shiuld have done a 4-2-3-1 with Mata behind Rashford. Bring Fellaini on later in the game and Sanchez

Souness; "Well I wouldn't play Felleini". That choked me up!!! Truth bullets.

Gary Neville this is the reason why you got sacked at Valencia because you refuse to look at what's under the bonnet instead you look at a piece of paper.

Gary Neville usually says what he himself wants to hear. He was wrong about Peps style of play not being suitable for the English game. He was wrong about City potentially struggling through the winter months. He was wrong saying last season was a fluke and never to be repeated. Here he defended Mourinho by saying he inherited a lot of the players! Well what manager didn’t in his 3rd season. Half the City team are inherited for Pep but he knows how to get the best out of them. I’m afraid Gary WAS a great pundit but no more.

Arsene Wenger would probably get better performances out of the United players!

Sourness turning out Neville!🤣🤣🤣

7:18 Cowardly stuff from Neville saying "I don't know", he'd answer no if it wasn't Man U.

Not often I agree with Souness but he’s spot on here. The gulf in quality between Utd and City was honestly alarming, it reminded me of a Champions League game where the likes of Barcelona come up against a part-time team for Cyprus. As a Utd fan, I look at the football player by City, Liverpool and to an extent Spurs, and I just wish my team could play like that. I just can’t accept that the Glazers or Woodward watched that game and didn’t immediately know things need to change at Utd.

Wow that quesion from Graeme destroyed Neville...Am big supporter of Graeme now

Disappointed in Gary's response. I understand what he is trying to say but Graham is correct.Jose IS NOT getting the best out of this group of players. Jose IS a great Manager and his record is not to be disputed. But he has a style that works with the right type of players and the right type of club. His struggles with Manchester United are due to the fact this group and this club do not suit his style. Jose could be challenging for the title if he has a group that included Pericic , Lakaku, Icardi, Willian, Matic, Pogba, Fellani, Bonnuci, Alderweirweld, Sandro, Milinković-Savić, Valencia. These are the type of players that he has or has tried to get at Manchester United. A group that is well established, in their primes or at the end of their prime and who will put in a shift. This is a group that he could stop any team and still get a goal or two. When Jose came to Chelsea they hadn't won for over 50 year and in his first year Chelsea lost 1 game and set a then EPL record of 95 points. That team had Drogba, Lampard, Terry, Duff, etc, etc. But if one looks at that team they score 72 goals his first year but only gave up 15 the whole season. His teams won with Defense not Offense. The second year brought another EPL title and again 72 goals was scored. Jose Maurinho has NEVER managed any EPL team to more than 73 goals in ANY season. He wins by being meticulous about every detail in preparing his team to DEFEND and disrupt and stop any team in the game, while relying on quality offensive players to nick a goal. In essence he's tony pulis with an open checkbook which works at Chelsea, Porto and Inter. The 3 years he spent at Madrid Jose's teams score over 100 goals on 2 occassions.....why? One word RONALDO. Christiano scored 46 goals by himself one year but Jose still wanted him to track back.That's Jose;s style. But this Manchester United club has better offensive potential than defensive potential. Jose was right , last year was one of his best years coaching because he actually got a team that had more offensive potential to play defensively and it didn't hurt that he had the best GK in the world, who won another best player of the year award. Jose doesn't have to change and start playing Barcelona style football. That's not his comfort zone and not every team can play that way. But what can be done with this group of players is to find the offensive style, formation and system that can unlock Pogba, Marital, Rashford, Sanchez, Lingard, Lakaku, Fred, and Periera. These are the names that Jose has and not the Willian or Pericics of the world. He is trying to force a group of young creative players into a style that does not maximum their skill set and that is proving to be a problem. Three years into his reign and he still is mixing, matching and trying to design ways to stop City, Liverpool, Bournmouth and Newcastle with this group. One last stat: Manchester has scored more than 2 goals in the EPL once this year in 12 games and 3 times in their last 18 EPL games dating back to last year. CIty has scored over 5 goals twice within the last month. United's brand has been built on Cantona, Beckham, Ronaldo, Giggs, Scholes, Rooney, VanNistleroy. Manchester United is not a publicly traded company because of the style of play of Ferdninad, Bruce, Neville or Vidic. Defense does win trophies and SAF and SIr Matt knew that but they also knew people spend their well earned money to see goals.

Agree with Graeme here. if Guardiola/Klopp/ Poch were man united manager how well would pogba martial rashford be playing

Hey Gary, I love you. I've always loved the tenacity you showed while you played football and how you've brought that into your punditry and management. There's alot that I agree with you on. But I'm sorry, this I don't agree with.

Lukaku (£90m), Pogba £90m, Matic £40m, Bailly £30m, Lindelof £38m, Fred £60m, Dalot £20m, Fellaini (resigned by Mou), Sanchez (£35m highest paid pl player). Why does gary Neville keep referring to this group like Mou didn’t buy anyone? This is Mou’s team how much more money does he want to spend? Messi and Ronaldo would struggle in this team and if Mou went to City would he play sterling, Sane, Silva or Debruyne?

Mourinho is a nutter playing matic and fellaini in the same midfield

Gary Neville is dodging the question. Manchester United have some real quality when you consider De Gea, Pogba & Sanchez. I know Manchester United hierarchy didn’t back him in the summer but too languish how they are currently, the coaching staff and the player need to take a look at themselves because if your team plays like that either the manager is handed his P45 or there a potential clear out of some dead wood in the squad.

Gary, answer the question??? “Don’t know “.. this sums up a lot about Manchester United players and management.

Glory days are over, just accept it. Every club has to be knocked off their purch. Utd did it to Liverpool in the 90s and city are doing it now to Utd.

Souness absolultey savaged Manchester United here.

As much as I hate it, Graeme won the argument against Gary. Lukaku had been much better for everton than he will ever be for United.

"HEATED"

Gary Neville says it the best! He respects the coach, and knows how hard it is to coach a team. Respect

Souness took Neville to school!! Wow and Zabaleta is talking more sense than Neville

I'm a United fan but have to agree with souness on this one,Neville didn't have the balls to say it.

United need a young manager with new ideas forget about trophies temporarily just let him build the team leo jardim will be perfect for united they need developing

Our big problem is inexperience. We really lack a leader that’s why I was thrilled in August for about 30 minutes when it looked like we might sign godin. He’d be my dream signing at this point. He’ll be able to help our other centre backs grow and also buy vital for us this season. I really think this new team just needs time a few new signings certainly not loads when u look at the amount of money spent. I don’t see a new manager doing any better at this time. Moyes was fucked from the start. LVG was hot and cold and José is the same. I’d certainly say stick it out with Jose til the end of the season see how we’re doing then. If we don’t make top 4 but we’re showing progress I say keep him we can’t just keep sacking managers it’s clearly not working

I don't know how people can hate Souness. I love the grumpy scot. He calls it the way he sees it and doesn't sugarcoat his opinions. Neville was great in this too, actually. Very honest despite talking about his club. Some fans will never say their team's crap even when it's obvious. Great punditry! The Manchester United board really need to take a *good, long and hard* look at themselves in the mirror. They've been awfully incompetent. Ever since taking control of the club, but the amazing Sir Alex papered over many cracks with his tactical genius, keeping Man United a fearsome outfit despite the mediocre signings like Anderson being bought in. Without him, the cracks are there to see and teams are just no longer afraid of United and rightly so. They're trash. I have a lot of sympathy for Jose but he really shouldn't have been signed. He never suited United. He was a great manager (and is still decent) in his prime but I feel he's not a rebuilder. He'll come in, spend and grant a team instant success. Man United were/are a team in need of a rebuild. Jose wasn't the right man for the job. Someone like Leonardo Jardim would've been ideal. I think he has potential to be a great manager if he can keep the spine of his team. Of course, a director of football needs to be hired. Woodward can't just keep buying overrated names like Lukaku because he'll get more flops than not.

Graeme Souness is spot on. Why won’t Gary answer the question?

Why does neville's voice always get high pitched

This is classic united vs liverpool they will never agree lol but in fairness i agree with souness and that comes from a lifelong united fan

Full of egos, empty team spirit

Even as a fan of Man United and Gary Neville's punditry, I think he's dead wrong here.

for its really sad see Zabaleta there....... it feels like yesterday hes still wearing blue :(

Damn! Graemes swagger is just on a whole another level in this video.

Souness a former liverpool player is correct about united. Neville a former united player is quite deluded at times on united

Ooooooooo Pablo Zabaleta... City loves you

As a United fan it pains me to say that the gap between us and city on the evidence of the derby will only get bigger if it continues on like this

Neville..Come on man grow up ...Why are you covering things?

Souness is tearing neville's ass and zaba is enjoying it big time..cmon city 😍😍

Souness is speaking exactly what all man utd fans are saying. Dont know why he is getting hate. I can understand Neville being partial towards utd but Souness is giving his opinion from a neutral point of view.

Best line out of the whole video, I wouldn't play Fellaini! Mind boggling that he is even in the United squad let alone starting.

Static Football. No 1 -2 passes. Players do not come closer to collect the ball. Also Midfielders that can't take on a man (that is why we missed Pogba). Ashley Young forever running then stopping with the ball and then passing back because he can't beat his man. So we definitely need a specialist on the right to help Ashley Young. Attacking players too far back to have a proper impact against the opposition. Also Mourinho will never when the league at Manchester United even if he and Guardiola stays for 10 years. We need too play with more risk, then only can we see where the problems are. Right now we bad all over.

Gary Neville is finished as a manager. Gary Neville is finished as a pundit. Judges every manager through the prism of his stint at Valencia

Gary Neville is a disgrace. Souness knows this thats why he came at him with a direct question. The manager needs to go before the style of play changes, everybody can see it. But Gary just talks and talks a whole bunch of crap without saying anything

Next video: Gary Neville has heated debate about football with his cat

Pablo was in the middle like wtf is happening 🤣

Any pl team would get a result ..least a draw...against the midfield united put today.. Fred not tested Perreira never near the 1st team Striker who can link up and hold the ball (sanchez) on the bench. Only creative player (mata)...although slow...should have brought on earlier.

I feel like the biggest problem with United is a lack of leadership the whole team is full of youngsters who are all caught up on social media. Don't get me wrong there's nothing wrong with social media but the team is full of egos. United don't have the players anymore like they used to such as Giggs, Scholes, Carrick, Zlatan and Rooney who we're great leaders who set the example for the team. Another issue is that we buy players and end up benching them. Why did we buy these players for millions? They're supposed to improve the team. I still believe the players United bought can improve the team. I still have faith in Alexis Sanchez I feel like Mourinho has really put him down and has gotten into his head so he's not performing. Same goes for the rest of the players that were bought. They aren't playing and now they don't have the spirit to play for United anymore. The problem is Jose Mourinho and the Board they are deluded and they don't have faith in their investments. This is a real big issue and it needs to get solved fast. Every time we sell or bench a player that we bought to improve the team starts us over to where we're at before.

Well how can a coach be blamed if there is no balance in the team how can a coach bring out the best if he don’t have the squad that matches the level of all 2 out of 11 being average for the team is acceptable but it’s Almost a different situation So how can Jose bring the best out of the player

That was the least heated heated debate I’ve ever seen

Zabaletta loving it

i understand what souness is getting at but its an oversimplified question. some of the players its hard to tell if they're not good enough or being coached wrong. theres more too it than just yes or no

in 10 years as per souness, who has more trophies in those 10 years - 2009 to 2018?? I agree momentum is with city currently but thats comes with good investment. Neville is right how many players do city have that were there 5 years back and how many are there in united in the first 11????

man United have attackin players,but they playin defensive doesn't make Sense
