YES or NO to potential next Man United manager! 👀

Antonio Conte gets a no from one pundit and a decidedly less categorical answer from the other: "Don't see why not." Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt's Manchester United manager game doesn't always fit neatly into its yes-or-no format.

Off-screen host Jack reads the names, while green checkmarks and red crosses record the verdicts. Roy Keane's turn brings a different consideration: "It'd be fun," one of the pair says. Daniel Farke's name meets a more immediate objection: "Leeds? Come on, Jack."

The Short drew about 260,000 views in its first 12 hours, already far beyond the channel's usual full-day Shorts audience. Its comment section was nearly ten times as busy as a typical first day, too.

Keane supplies a running joke, with viewers imagining what his dressing room would look like with cameras allowed inside. Elsewhere, commenters question the rejection of Eddie Howe and Julian Nagelsmann, discuss Unai Emery's credentials and ask whether debating replacements is fair to Michael Carrick while he is still in the job.

That last question gives the game its sharper context. The channel's accompanying episode reviews United's three-goal defeat to Bournemouth and questions Carrick's future. That discussion, plus separate Shorts about Bruno Fernandes and the crowd's booing, also drew unusually fast audiences.

The quickfire list closes with agreement on Kieran McKenna: both pundits give him their approval.

What viewers say

They agreed on Emery, Keane and McKenna. Emery is the standout candidate

How Nahelsmann & Howe both get a unanimous no is baffling to me. They’re maybe the best two candidates on the list IMO
