🚨Noah Okafor on What Daniel Farke told him before he was subbed on
Interviewer 🗣️ Noah that's a super sub performance by you today against Tottenham Hotspur. Would you mind telling us what inspired your second half performance?
Noah Okafor 🗣️ During the second our coach told me to get ready because he wanted me to replace Nmecha.
After warming up he called me for few instructions,he said to me " Calvert-Lewin fought hard against the likes of Van Hecke,Van de Ven and Pedro Porro and he was unlucky not score.
Mathijs Tel is out of the game now I want us to play with two strikers,that way we are going to exploit their weak defense.
So when I replaced Nmecha I allowed Calvert-Lewin to do the dirty job of trying to bully them while I waited patiently for them to make mistakes.
Along the line I got one opportunity and I took advantage of it and I scored,I'm so happy I was happy to execute the plan properly and most especially for the three points.

🚨 Nemanja Vidic on Noah Okafor goal vs Tottenham
🗣️ I think Daniel Farke got his substitutions right in the second half,he took off Nmecha for Noah Okafor and I believe he switched to two strikers with that one.
Calvert-Lewin fought against the likes of Van Hecke and Van de Ven alone in the first half so the introduction of Okafor made them look more dangerous.
Roberto De Zerbi will be disappointed with the way his team performed in the second half but I think he made a mistake subbing off Matheus Fernandes because Sandro Tonali and Gray were so average today.
Mathijs Tel was brilliant before they lost him to injury, Mohamed Kudus and Omar Marmoush didn't make any meaningful impact before they were taken out.
Kulusevski and Dominic Solanke couldn't help matters after coming on the the second half.
After Spurs defeated Chelsea at the Stamford Bridge,I thought they were going to have a long run of success winning matches but after their abysmal performance against Leeds United, I doubt if they are going to do well this season.

🚨Gary Neville on the Manchester United choosing Pochettino as a potential replacement for Michael Carrick instead of Antonio Conte.
🗣️ I'm afraid that this might not be the solution at end of the day. It's a shame that the INEOS, Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox are always getting the gentlemen coaches.
They fell out with Ruben Amorim because he refused to be the nice guy and watch things go wrong as usual,then replaced him with the gentleman Michael Carrick.
They refused to sign players for him,watch things fall apart under his watch,ruin his managerial career and then want to replace him with Mr Nice Guy Mauricio Pochettino.
I know they were going to avoid Antonio Conte because he won't take any bull sh!t from them.
People will always tell you he burns bridges wherever he goes but that's a lie,he was Juventus boss for year and was successful there.
They simply don't want him because they will be exposed,now there's a rumour that Lisandro Martinez and Youri Tielemans had a fight after Atletico Madrid defeated the Manchester United.
This means that the dressing room is also divided,I saw Bruno Fernandes having issues on the pitch with Diogo Dalot vs Aston Villa.
The only man that will solve the problems at the Club is Antonio Conte but they simply don't want him.

🚨 Alan Shearer on Rumours linking Mauricio Pochettino to Manchester United.
🗣️When you look at Poch Premier league career, at Southampton, Tottenham and Chelsea respectively,you will see a good coach that lacks the pedigree to win titles.
He won the league with Paris Saint-Germain but it's easy for any coach to win the League with PSG.
He's the same man that had Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar Jr playing together in the same team but couldn't make it to the Champions League final.
At Spurs in finished second in the Premier League, lost Champions League final to Liverpool.
If the INEOS,Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox had supported Carrick,he could have done a great job but it seems they planned it to frustrate and sack him at last.
With Mauricio Pochettino at Manchester United,if the club can spend on quality players,he might give them a good run in the Champions league and in the Premier League but I don't see him winning any of them.

🚨 Jamie Carragher on Mauricio Pochettino being linked to replace Michael Carrick.
🗣️Mauricio Pochettino has coached the likes of Southampton, Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea football club and won nothing with them.
He's greatest achievement is finishing second with Spurs and reaching the Champions League final which he lost to Jürgen Klopp's Liverpool.
As at that time,Spurs have one of the best team in Europe but somehow he couldn't win anything with them.
The likes of Harry Kane, Dembele,Dele Ali and Son Heun-Min were on fire but Pochettino still couldn't get the job done. The only league title he won was in France.
Manchester United are currently being linked with him, Eddie Howe, Antonio Conte and Julian Nagelsmann but I think Antonio Conte is going to rebuild the Club if the INEOS, Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox will involve him in player transfers.

🚨 Alan Shearer on Gareth Southgate being linked to Manchester United job
🗣️ I don't mean to disrespect anyone, Southgate is an incredible manager and I respect him alot but I don't think he's going to be the right man for the job.
This isn't International Football,where you can select the your favourite players from clubs in the country and work with them.
The INEOS,Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox runs the transfer at Manchester United and they might not give him his very favourite players.
If that happens, things are definitely going to get awry and he will find himself in a similar situation with Michael Carrick.
The likes of Julian Nagelsmann, Antonio Conte, Eddie Howe and Mauricio Pochettino are also being linked with the job.
Manchester United needs to go with coaches that are into club football, Southgate is definitely going to be a huge gamble.

🚨 Bastian Schweinsteiger reacts as Vincent Kompany returns to training
🗣️ We've had some couple of bad news this season,earlier it was Jamal Musiala that collapsed on the pitch then Vincent Kompany.
I was worried when I heard he collapsed watching the reserve team train. Vincent Kompany is a strong person, I've known him from his playing days.
The moment I heard the news I was shocked because, anything that brings Big Vincent down must be something serious.
Today he returned back to training,which means he's ok, I'm excited he's recovered and I want him to always stay strong and healthy.
Football is a beautiful game but healthy issues like this makes it look bad

Marc Cucurella and Enzo Fernandez planned joining Real Madrid together even when they still celebrate with the Chelsea badge.
Marc Cucurella finally made it to Real Madrid while Enzo Fernandez had to join Manchester City,the club Marc Cucurella snubbed for Chelsea.
One thing I love about Real Madrid is that no matter how you love the club,they won't sign you if you ain't their level.
They will keep the rumours alive but you won't wear their jersey. It happened with Leny Yoro.
Enzo Fernandez thought he's made it to that level where Real Madrid would jump on him if he declares he's leaving Chelsea.
The truth is that he's never that level,Marc Cucurella at Chelsea remains the World best left back. Real Madrid signing him isn't a surprise.
Enzo Fernandez is never top ten in terms of ranking the world best midfielders. All he had at Chelsea was the love and the PR of the fans hyping his stat padded career.

🚨 Wayne Rooney on Manchester United List of coaches to replace Michael Carrick
🗣️ It's sad that the INEOS, Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox have dragged Manchester United into the mud.
Is Michael Carrick a bad coach? No he's not,he finished third last season after taking over from Ruben Amorim.
These owners didn't back him up properly in the transfer market and along the line he had to face the new season with alot of his players injured.
I have seen rumours linking Julian Nagelsmann, Antonio Conte, Mauricio Pochettino and Eddie Howe to replace Carrick.
These are wonderful coaches but none of them will succeed if these owners refuse to sign players.
They should fix the issues of quality lacking in squad if they want to rebuild the team.

🚨 Gary Neville on Mauricio Pochettino being linked to Manchester United
🗣️ It's been a nightmare season for Manchester United and Michael Carrick but I'm not surprised because the INEOS were less concerned during the transfer window.
Manchester United has got some couple of good players but most of them are injury prone.
Omar Berrada and Jason Wilcox signed Youri Tielemans, André Santos and Carlos Baleba but guess what! One of them is injury prone.
Carlos Baleba came with injury and now he's injured again. The problem of Manchester United is lack of quality players.
Pochettino is a good coach with good Premier League experience but if he becomes the person to replace Michael Carrick in the dugout,he won't do well unless these owners back him up with quality signings.

🚨 Bastian Schweinsteiger on Fermin Lopez performance against Atletico Madrid
🗣️ Diego Simeone and his men succeed in stopping Anthony Gordon and Raphinha but couldn't find a solution for the young man.
He's a hole player,you can't predict his movements,he takes defenders unawares and score beautiful goals.
He and Lamine Yamal, Pedri under stands each other alot and they punished Atletico Madrid.
Hansi Flick replaced Farinas with Frenkie de Jong and he did amazing job in the second half as a false right wing back. He really made defending easier for Pau Cubarsi and Gerard Martin.
Diego Simeone on the other hand should have introduced Alexander Sorloth earlier because Julian Alvarez was wasteful and I think he's part of the reason they lost to FC Barcelona.
Hansi Flick must be proud of his team reaction in the second half,they defended well and completed the comeback.
It's a great win for Barcelona,no Rodri but the young man Marc Bernal was superb until he was replaced. He's going to have a great career.

🚨Gary Neville on Manchester United late goals against Aston Villa.
🗣️ It might not be the best of result for Michael Carrick but twice this week Old Trafford witnessed great football.
We conceded Early in the first half from Alysson and Nicolas Jackson but Manchester United bounce back through Bruno Fernandes and Youri Tielemans goals.
Again in the second half Senne Lammens was reckless and we conceded two goals yet again. I never believed it will end 4-4
I think Michael Carrick made his substitutions at the right time,Shea Lacey replaced Amad Diallo ,Ayden Heaven came on for Harry Maguire.
Dorgu and Joshua Zirkzee replaced Diogo Dalot and Bryan Mbeumo respectively. Then Manchester United continued asking questions.
I have already given up by 90th minutes but then Zirkzee and Dorgu came through for Manchester United in five freaking minutes.
It's absolutely madness from the Red Devils and Sir Alex Ferguson must be proud of this outcome.
Michael Carrick made a mistake by Starting Amad Diallo while Shea Lacey starts from the bench.
Once he introduced the young man and Miracles happened. He might be Manchester United lucky charm.

🚨Jamie Carragher on Sunderland Penalty
🗣️The reffings we see these days in the Premier League is pathetic. Brian Brobbey bullied Levi Colwill before falling inside the box the ref gave penalty to Sunderland.
During VAR review,he was clearly seen holding Levi Colwill shirt. It's never a penalty. Sunderland are playing tough and it seems the referee has got their back.
Xabi Alonso needs to find a way to stop the threat Brobbey gave them in the first half, secondly he needs to find a solution to their low blocks.
Palmer isn't in the game,I think he needs to replace him with Danny Welbeck or Emmanuel Emegha while Pedro Neto plays on the flank.

🚨 Kylian Mbappe Hails Arda Guler after his stunning performance against Valencia.
Interviewer 🗣️ Kylian Mbappe that's a great victory for Real Madrid tonight and yet another goal for you. How do you feel about Real Madrid Performance tonight?
Kylian Mbappe 🗣️ Well our team performance was excellent,we were able to play the way José Mourinho wanted us to play.
Aurélien Tchouameni and Bernardo Silva had to sit back while we attack. The plan was for us to be strong defence and also very dangerous on the attack. I think we really achieved that.
Interviewer 🗣️ which of your teammates stood out tonight and how would you describe the chemistry between you and Arda Guler?
Kylian Mbappe 🗣️ Fede Valverde,Yan Diomande,Jude Bellingham infact I would say everyone played well but Arda Guler stole the show with his beautiful goal and assist.
The chemistry between me and Arda is fantastic,I have been able to understand him right from training.
I call him the Turkish Lionel Messi because of the uniqueness of his left foot and his ability to make quick and accurate decision too.
As for the goal,I knew where to position myself the moment he had the ball,so I scored and we put the game to bed.

🚨 Luis Figo on Arda Guler goal against Valencia
🗣️Arda Guler is special,he doesn't struggle to score goals he's just amazing.
He's got smagnetic feet,he received the ball and dribbled past Valencia defence like he's Lionel Messi. That's incredible!
I see alot of Chemistry between him,Yan Diomande,Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe. He's also linking up well with the Tchouameni and Bernardo Silva from the midfield.
He's got a bright future ahead of him. Jose Mourinho has really brought out the best in these Real Madrid dressing room in his first season.
The club is gradually getting back to where it used to be at the top. Thanks to The Special One for his incredible impact so far

🚨 Gary Neville on Fede Valverde Goal vs Valencia
🗣️ At this point Trent-Alexander Arnold and Axel Dumfries will be asking themselves some questions.
Why is it that Jose Mourinho prefers a player who's naturally a midfielder to them but his impact every match day tells it all
He's so versatile,he reads the game well, knows when to sit back and when to join the attack.
Jose Mourinho knows he's good at the Right wing back position,plays him there to create space for Aurélien Tchouameni and Bernardo Silva in the midfield.
Once again Yan Diomande,Jude Bellingham and Arda Guler behind Kylian Mbappe is the real deal for Real Madrid and Vinicius Jr might face tough competition from Yan Diomande.

🚨 Wayne Rooney on Manchester City defeat to Nottingham Forest.
🗣️At this point Manchester City needs to understand that they're delusional to believe Enzo Maresca is the right man to succeed Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.
He started well just like he did at Chelsea but along the line,he started losing. He's not been consistent as a manager.
We know how good the likes of Marc Guehi, Erling Haaland, Ryan Cherki have all been under Pep Guardiola but today they were playing like confused set of people.
Ruben Dias, Khusanov, Josko Gvardiol were all good playing under Pep Guardiola but today they reminded me about Wesley Fofana and Tosin at Chelsea
Today Liam Delap scored twice and bagged MOTM, something we've not seen for a while. Nicolas Jackson also scored against City.
For me they've been looking for the opportunity to express themselves on the pitch against Enzo Maresca because he didn't believe in them.
They're inconsistent playing under him and am afraid the same thing might happen to Erling Haaland.

Manchester City to winning the Premier League after Enzo Maresca replaced Pep Guardiola

We genuinely thought Maresca was some tactical genius after watching Chelsea win the Conference League and Club World Cup.
Now we're beginning to ask questions.
Was it really Maresca's masterclass, or was he simply being carried by the quality of players like Palmer, Caicedo, Gusto and João Pedro?
The football we're seeing now is raising serious doubts.
