Podcast appearances and mentions of Michael Carrick

Bruno Fernandes delivered a captain's performance when Manchester United needed it most, driving a devastating turnaround in a 5–2 victory over Ipswich Town. The firepower finally came alive at Old Trafford, but the defensive vulnerabilities Ipswich exposed leave Michael Carrick with serious work still to do.⚽

Gary Neville reflects on Manchester United's entertaining 5-2 win over Ipswich at Old Trafford, hailing hat-trick hero Bruno Fernandes as the club's best signing since Sir Alex Ferguson and assessing the exciting attacking options at Michael Carrick's disposal. However, Neville warns United's defensive vulnerabilities could undermine their season and explains why he would like to see the club bring in one or two defenders before the transfer window closes.Neville also looks at Chelsea's impressive start and their outstanding attacking options, but questions whether their defence can provide the solidity needed when the goals dry up. He turns his attention to Tottenham after their difficult opening to the season, saying Spurs need to “get a grip of it quite quickly” following defeats to Brentford and Newcastle.Plus, Neville discusses Newcastle's encouraging response, Liverpool's problems at full-back and why their lack of defensive recruitment could prove costly.•You can watch the Premier League action live on Sky Sports.

Rio Presents is back for a brand-new season, with Rio Ferdinand joined by Joel Beya and Stephen Howson to analyse the opening weekend of Premier League action.Rio gives his honest assessment of Manchester United's performance, explains why the midfield wasn't the decisive issue in their opening-day defeat to Hull and identifies the fundamentals Michael Carrick's side must fix.Having shared a dressing room with Carrick for several years, Rio offers a unique perspective on the manager's calm personality and explains why supporters shouldn't mistake it for a lack of passion.The panel examines United's new midfield options, the striker the squad may still need and why one result shouldn't define an entire season.They also debate the changing standards at Old Trafford and whether clubs and players are held to different standards on loyalty, amid transfer uncertainty surrounding Gabriel Martinelli at Arsenal and Ollie Watkins at Aston Villa.Rio also assesses the pressure on Liverpool's big-money signings Florian Wirtz and Aleksander Isak and asks whether their performances have received less scrutiny than their price tags warrant over the last 12 months.Plus, Rio makes a major prediction about Arsenal's title defence and explains why their stability could mark the beginning of a period of dominance.Subscribe for more elite football insight, honest debate and Rio Ferdinand's perspective, shaped by experience at the very highest level.#PremierLeague #ManUnited #RioPresents #RioFerdinand #RioFerdinandPresents #MUFC #MichaelCarrick #StephenHowson #JoelBeya #Arsenal #ArsenalFC #AFC #LiverpoolFC #LFC #AstonVilla #AVFC #EPL #FlorianWirtz #AlexanderIsak #GabrielMartinelli #OllieWatkins #HULMUN #FootballDebate #FootballPodcast #footballtiktok #carrick #wirtz #isak #footballshorts #PLSubscribe: http://bit.ly/15QO9WERio Ferdinand Presents: rioferdinandpresents.comRio Ferdinand Presents Instagram: https://instagram.com/rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents Twitter/X: https://x.com/RioMeetsRio Ferdinand Presents Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents Threads: https://www.threads.net/@rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Instagram: https://instagram.com/rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Twitter/X: https://x.com/rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RioFerdinandOfficialRio Ferdinand TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Threads: https://www.threads.net/@rioferdy5 Hosted on Acast.

The Premier League is back and there were plenty of shocks in the opening weekend, not least Spurs being beaten out of sight by Brentford and Hull City taking Manchester United apart.But who has more to worry about: Manchester United's Michael Carrick or Spurs' Robert De Zerbi?Gabby, Nedum & Mark get stuck into two very different problems and two very different ways to handle an opening day shock defeat: the Michael Carrick method of keep calm and carry on and Roberto De Zerbi's slightly more fiery approach of publicly throwing players under the bus who are making you look bad.Also on the show, another shock defeat saw Aston Villa thumped 4-0 at Brighton. Less than nine months ago Unai Emery's side were title contenders now they've sold their best players, more want to leave and Villa are staring down the barrel of a tough season - how did this happen and what does it say about the Premier League if only a few teams can afford to try and win it?Elsewhere we celebrate Liverpool v Newcastle the greatest head to head in Premier League history, Nedum gives us the inside scoop on an iconic Premier League penalty and 18 year old wonder kid Ayyoub Bouaddi is in the spotlight as his move to Manchester City takes a step closer.

Hannah Wilkes is joined by Miguel Delaney, Jacqui Oatley and Martin Samuel to reflect on the weekend's sporting action.We kick off with Manchester United's humbling 2-0 defeat to Hull. Jacqui believes it was the manner of the defeat that should concern United most, with questions being raised over Michael Carrick's side lacking intensity and appearing underprepared. But is Martin right to suggest United simply weren't willing to work hard enough?We then turn to Spurs, who have spent big in the summer transfer market and enjoyed a full pre-season under Roberto De Zerbi — only to lose their opening game 3-0 to Brentford. Is Miguel right to describe the result as classically Spurs?Then to the champions, who beat Coventry convincingly 3-0 on Friday. With a refreshed Saka and an even stronger squad available to rotate, are we likely to see Arteta take the handbrake off this season and unleash a more attacking Arsenal side?Finally, we turn to Liverpool, who, following Curtis Jones' departure, are without a homegrown player in their first team for the first time in 134 years. Miguel explores the importance of clubs staying connected to their communities, and whether there should be a greater emphasis on homegrown talent and giving academy players a pathway into the first team.-•You can watch the sporting action live on Sky Sports.

Hull City celebrated their Premier League return by defeating Manchester United 2–0 at the MKM Stadium. Their compact back five controlled central space, while superior aggression decided the aerial duels and second balls. Michael Carrick's false-nine system left United crowded outside the penalty area and dangerously short of movement behind the defense. Two set-piece goals exposed an opening-day performance built on possession but lacking authority.⚽

#1032 | Ed and Dharnish preview the season with a focus on how United's tactics are evolving under Michael Carrick. The pattern in pre-season has been more possession, more central possession, and an emphasis on third-man runs.  Where Carlos Baleba fits is still unclear: he's more carrier than passer, so the assumption is someone else, Kobbie Mainoo or Youri Tielemans, drops in to start moves while Baleba operates further forward.  The bigger worry is pressing. Pushing fullbacks and forwards higher creates gaps between midfield and defence, and neither Bruno Fernandes nor Marcus Rashford presses well enough to close them, though Baleba's mobility should help cover the space.  Up front, the squad is deep enough that losing Benjamin Sesko to injury or rotation shouldn't be a big problem, with Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo and a returning Rashford all able to play through the middle. 0:00 Introduction and season preview

Rio Ferdinand sits down with new Manchester United midfielder Youri Tielemans to discuss his surprise move to Old Trafford, his first conversations with Michael Carrick and why joining United was an opportunity he couldn't turn down.Tielemans reveals what Carrick told him about his role, why the United boss sees similarities between them and how he wants Tielemans to control the tempo, take responsibility in possession and how he can help connect United's defence with their attacking players.The Belgium captain gives his early assessment of his new midfield partners, discussing what Bruno Fernandes, Kobbie Mainoo and Andrey Santos can each bring to the team. He explains why Bruno is a "nightmare" to play against, where Mainoo can still improve and why Santos could give United's midfield the security to attack with more freedom.Tielemans also reveals some of the early details he's picked up inside the United squad - including which player was first to message him after his move, the funniest player on the training pitch and why he's been pleasantly surprised with the ego and ‘edge' within the leadership group of senior players.He opens up on playing alongside Marcus Rashford at Aston Villa and why the player he saw every day was completely different to the public perception around him, praising his commitment, attitude and the qualities he can bring back to United.Youri also reflects on becoming a Champions League player at just 16, the advice he'd give JJ Gabriel aged 15 and what he learned under Unai Emery at Aston Villa.Plus, Tielemans builds his ultimate five-a-side team from the players he's shared a pitch with, featuring Vincent Kompany, Kevin De Bruyne, Eden Hazard, Romelu Lukaku and Jamie Vardy – revealing what made Hazard unlike anyone he'd ever played with and why Lukaku doesn't get the respect he deserves.

Former Manchester United and Real Madrid striker Javier 'Chicharito' Hernández joins Rio Ferdinand to relive one of football's most remarkable careers, opening up on the dressing rooms that shaped him and the biggest names he played alongside.You'll see Chicharito like never before as he passionately explains why Cristiano Ronaldo was "never arrogant", revealing what the five-time Ballon d'Or winner was really like behind closed doors at Real Madrid and why the Portuguese icon's relentless mentality is so often misunderstood.The former United favourite also breaks down the movement that made him one of Europe's deadliest penalty-box strikers, analysing the famous Bolton goal that Rio still calls one of the greatest examples of striker movement he's ever seen. He explains why Erling Haaland can become an even more complete forward, compares Harry Kane to Karim Benzema and names the current striker he'd most like to play alongside.There's also a fascinating insight into Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United, why adapting to the club's culture mattered more than proving yourself immediately, the standards set by Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes and Wayne Rooney, plus why Michael Carrick deserves far more credit for restoring Manchester United's identity.Chicharito also reflects on life at Real Madrid alongside Ronaldo, Gareth Bale, Luka Modrić and Sergio Ramos, discusses why Gareth Bale remains one of football's most underrated superstars and reveals the five-a-side team he'd pick from the incredible players he shared a dressing room with.00:00 - Introduction & Cristiano Ronaldo's Mentality01:38 - Chicharito on His Playing Style & Movement02:32 - Adapting to Man Utd alongside Rooney, Giggs & Nani04:39 - Is Movement Instinctive or Learned?06:22 - Dissecting the Iconic Goal vs. Bolton (Movement Analysis)10:23 - Reading Teammate Body Language & Quick Attacks12:59 - Advice for New Transfers Entering Big Clubs15:43 - Manchester United Standards & Earning Respect18:40 - Family Legacy & Tough Love from His Father20:00 - Dressing Room Culture & Learning from Paul Scholes24:15 - Winning Player of the Year in His Debut Season26:08 - The Post-Ferguson Shift & Leaving Old Trafford30:32 - Manchester United vs. Real Madrid: Cultural Differences34:58 - What Cristiano Ronaldo Was Really Like Behind the Scenes40:52 - Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema & The Modern #949:54 - Picking His Ultimate Strike Partner & 5-a-Side Team#Chicharito #RioFerdinand #CristianoRonaldo #ManUtd #RealMadrid #MUFC #HalaMadrid #PremierLeague #ChampionsLeague #Ronaldo #CR7 #ErlingHaaland #HarryKane #KarimBenzema #GarethBale #LukaModric #PaulScholes #WayneRooney #MichaelCarrick #StrikerMovement #FootballAnalysis #StrikerMindset #Goalscorers #FootballTactics #FootballDressingRoom #5aSide #SirAlexFerguson #FootballPodcast #FootballInterview #ManUtdLegends #RealMadridCF #WomensFootball #FarahReacts #FarahMeets #PodcastHighlightSubscribe: http://bit.ly/15QO9WERio Ferdinand Presents: rioferdinandpresents.comRio Ferdinand Presents Instagram: https://instagram.com/rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents Twitter/X: https://x.com/RioMeetsRio Ferdinand Presents Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Presents Threads: https://www.threads.net/@rioferdinandpresentsRio Ferdinand Instagram: https://instagram.com/rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Twitter/X: https://x.com/rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RioFerdinandOfficialRio Ferdinand TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@rioferdy5Rio Ferdinand Threads: https://www.threads.net/@rioferdy5 Hosted on Acast.

Manchester United have moved fast and furious in the transfer market! In this episode of the Manchester is Red podcast, Steven Railston and Tyrone Marshall break down a massive week of business at Old Trafford, analysing how the squad is shaping up ahead of the new season. We dive deep into the £85m double-swoop for Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans, comparing United's business to Tottenham's big-money signing of Matheus Fernandes. Plus, we look ahead to the pre-season opener against Wrexham in Helsinki, discuss Karl Darlow's arrival, and debate the futures of Marcus Rashford and Kobbie Mainoo after England's World Cup exit.

#1021 | Ed and Dan discuss United's expected £50m signing of Andrey Santos from Chelsea, weighing fan reactions, Santos' strengths, and questions about his best role in the team.  But the broader midfield rebuild this summer still lacks an elite, established number six, with top targets like Aurélien Tchouaméni unavailable after renewing his contract at Real Madrid, and alternatives such as Alex Scott, Lamine Camara and Carlos Baleba carrying various degrees of risk. The conversation then shifts to the World Cup: criticism of Roberto Martínez's Portugal, Ronaldo's influence, and England's tournament so far, including frustration at Kobbie Mainoo not playing and a preview of England vs Norway. And what of Marcus Rashford's uncertain future after the tournament ends? 00:00 Intro and England at the World Cup 03:32 Andrey Santos Signs for United 14:15 The Search for a Unicorn Number Six 16:47 Weighing Up Alex Scott and Baleba 20:19 Michael Carrick's Playing Career 28:07 Tchouameni's New Real Madrid Deal 34:22 Ronaldo and Portugal's World Cup Meltdown 36:47 England vs Norway and Rashford's Future If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

#1012 | Ed and Dharnish conclude their tactical review of the season, focusing on Michael Carrick's interim spell at United. Carrick's appointment mean no return for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and quickly produced results, with a focus on pragmatic but front-foot football. Carrick immediately installed a 4-2-3-1 system, highlighted by compact defending, fast transitions, plus one- and two-touch combinations in tight spaces. The strong results won him the job permanently, but slow starts and limited pressing/counter-pressing point to opportunities for improvement next season. What will Carrickball bring with the addition of more physical midfielders? 00:00 Introduction 02:23 Carrick Appointment Context 03:24 City Game Tactical Setup 05:47 Compact Defence and Transitions 09:06 Rondos and Quick Combinations 11:03 Results Run and Carrick's Pragmatism 16:03 Next Step: Pressing and Midfield Evolution 22:03 Transfer Wishlist and Squad Gaps 23:41 Carrick's Track Record 26:02 Wrap Up If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

#1010 | Ed and Dharnish begin a three-part season tactical review, covering the start of the campaign through the autumn and setting up later segments on Ruben Amarin's downfall and Michael Carrick's resurgence. There's a review of early matches including Arsenal, Fulham, Burnley, City, Chelsea, Brentford, and a damaging loss at Grimsby. Why did Amorim lean into long balls, why wouldn't he move away from his beloved 3-4-3, and why did he insist on playing his best players out of position ... or not at all?  00:00 Intro and Season Overview 01:18 Early Season: Amorim Ball 04:13 Grimsby and The Low Point 12:06 Attack Clicks and Set Pieces Saving Amorim 12:58 Pressing & Defensive Issues 19:39 Three Wins in a Row and Brighton 22:18 Transition to Part 2: Amorim's Downfall If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

Ed and Dan break down Michael Carrick's appointment as Manchester United head coach on a two-year deal: why the job went to him over the alternatives, and what comes next. Sixteen games into the interim spell, the results speak for themselves. The floor has been raised, and his methods are not complicated: a back four, Mainoo restored to the team, players returned to roles they recognise, and Amorim's pressing scheme abandoned. From there the conversation turns to what's next. Does Carrick have a ceiling that meets elite Champions League sides? How does the summer midfield rebuild dictate whether United play the way Carrick really wants next season? And what does success look like? 00:00 Carrick's Record and the Reaction Online 02:52 Previous United Managers 10:08 What Carrick Has Done Differently 18:52 Midfield Profile - What United Need 34:31 Carrick's Character and Management Style 36:35 Champions League and What Success Looks Like 40:38 Summer Transfer Window - Who Should United Sign 45:40 Wrapping Up If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

#1007 | Ed and Dan review Manchester United's 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest in the final home game of the season. More than 4 xG created, 29 shots taken and Bruno Fernandes' 20th assist. Plenty of entertainment on offer. It's Michael Carrick's 11th win of his short tenure, but he's found a way for United to keep emerging victorious from these narrow-margin games. It was a day when Casemiro said farewell to Old Trafford, Luke Shaw scored his first goal for three years, and Bryan Mbeumo eventually got on the scoresheet too. There was some controversy about Matteus Cunha's goal, although rules are rules, innit? Inevitably, the conversation turns to the summer.
