Gary Neville comes to the table with a ledger, not a theory. Eleven managers in 13 years, £1.6 billion spent on players, £1.2 billion of debt and infrastructure he describes as crumbling: that, he argues, is the Manchester United Mauricio Pochettino would be walking into.

The Stick to Football episode was recorded while Michael Carrick was still in the job. "All things are pointing towards Michael Carrick will lose his job tomorrow," Neville says, adding that he thinks United are "finalizing the deal with Pochettino as we speak." About 1.3 million people have watched it since yesterday, and the comments came in more than six times faster than on the channel's usual first day. The episode is sponsored by Disney+.

The football comes first. Neville calls United's defence "probably the worst back four in the Premier League" and points to mistakes in the recent match against Aston Villa. Carragher says the squad doesn't look physically at the level of other Premier League teams. Keane boils it down to work without the ball: "It's what you do out of possession. That's the key." That makes Pochettino an interesting fit, because Neville says the Argentine puts physical fitness "really at the top of the agenda".

Then the panel turn to the club itself. Neville criticises the owners for handling Carrick's dismissal from a meeting in Monaco rather than in Manchester, and says they lack the cash to support a successful team. His condition for Pochettino is blunt: defensive signings in January. "They have to give it to him, or else he shouldn't take the job." Scott, for her part, believes Carrick "will bounce back".

Many viewers joke about how much of every episode goes to United. The show does give time to Manchester City's midfield and mood, and the whole table agrees that Jayden Bogle's challenge on Mathys Tel deserved yellow, not red. Neville also recalls the FA Cup tie at Anfield where a Michael Owen tackle left him with ten stitches in his ankle, which Carragher is happy to discuss.
