Conte and Keane's imagined United double act gets a Netflix pitch
The Good, The Bad & The Football turns its managerial discussion into a hypothetical partnership that viewers are already casting as must-film training sessions.
Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 267,518 views a day, 7.3 times a normal first day on this channel (36,536).
Conte AND Roy Keane at Man United?! 😂
Bring Antonio Conte in to shake up Manchester United, one host suggests. Add Roy Keane, says another. By the next response, the proposed coaching arrangement has become a television proposition: "I'll tell you what, I'd be getting straight onto Netflix. Film this."
This is a hypothetical, not an appointment announcement. But pairing those two personalities gives The Good, The Bad & The Football a sharper comic premise than another managerial shortlist. The Short reached roughly 148,000 views in nine hours, with its estimated first-day pace more than seven times the channel's usual Shorts start.
Hosted by Paddy McGuinness, Nicky Butt and Paul Scholes, the podcast has a personal connection to the suggestion: Butt and Scholes played alongside Keane at United. The clip begins with an argument for Conte to impose discipline, then escalates almost immediately to the idea of bringing both men in together.
Viewers are imagining the training ground as much as the dugout. Some wonder how two such forceful personalities would share authority; another sketches out Conte as manager and Keane as the intermediary who would resolve problems before they reached him.
The pairing sits among separate uploads considering Conte, Unai Emery and which United players should stay or go. Here, though, the hosts reach a production decision before anything resembling a staffing plan: get the cameras in.
