0:00

You'll never stop this thing, I will

0:03

never let you go. But

0:30

they've been denied two victories over Erichten

0:32

Hark's side by VAR

0:36

penalty calls. One

0:39

given, one not. Against

0:42

Iraola's side was the decision

0:45

to award a penalty against Adam Smith, from

0:47

which Bruno Fernandes scored to draw Manchester

0:50

United level for the second time in

0:52

this match. But when Bournemouth late on

0:54

thought they'd won a penalty, it

0:56

turned out that the contact on

0:58

Ryan Christie was outside the box. Dominic

1:01

Solanke scored the first

1:03

goal for Bournemouth when they led

1:05

Fernandes through Manchester United level. Clive

1:07

had got them ahead again and

1:09

despite the spirit they showed in

1:11

this match, Bournemouth couldn't see out

1:13

the victory. Iraola still

1:15

questioning the decisions with Tony

1:17

Harrington, the referee. He'll be

1:20

perhaps particularly annoyed about the handball

1:22

decision, but also about whether the

1:24

contact on Ryan Christie continued

1:27

into the area. Manchester United

1:29

in the meantime, still 10

1:31

points off the top five, losing a little

1:33

bit more ground in the race for Champions

1:35

League football next season. It's

1:37

all amicable, thankfully, between Iraola and

1:39

Fernandes, who was the inspiration for

1:41

the Manchester United recovery and its

1:43

finished Bournemouth 2. Manchester

great since he's come in and I'm I'm

5:31

I see a quasi chances this season. I'm

5:33

probably a lot more than than last season.

5:35

Where to start of place around to see

5:37

a man? I'm yeah benefit from that. They've

5:39

got the Arabs have a say in the someone I'm

5:42

sure you've been Ocelots the ball with. That's how I

5:44

remember it well every once and now at what your

5:46

feelings on it. Right now you think it's a bit

5:48

of a shootout between to Self Watkins Live in Sony

5:50

5:52

a score as many ghosts of Bubbles and see where

5:54

5:56

Oversaw enough to be there, are messing around with

5:58

enough to be that. For your your continent

6:01

in a big tournament not dice is everyone's

6:03

dream I'm but yeah like you sell assets

6:05

are to keep score and I'm psych as

6:07

many as I can from from noted that

6:09

ended a season and I'm there have like

6:11

and been of a shop. Dominica,

6:14

Want to work? even know that about manager since

6:16

his com in. Housing, You know what's

6:18

changed in the intensity of the way that

6:20

you guys play in? I want the key

6:22

differences and how's it been And plane under

6:24

under and. Yes,

6:27

Been great for we had a baby slow

6:29

start adopting today to the style of play

6:31

buffing come with the players that we have

6:33

of in case he says like a glove

6:35

i'm a guy Law hardware can play as

6:37

in a team and will not suppress habit

6:39

6:41

got the season as is come from not

6:43

so is definite benefit us and I'm like

6:45

I said this is great for me I'm

6:47

with us presence or have to pets cause

6:49

we winnable back hello and and that that

6:51

resources for me as well. It

6:54

a final thought dominic on on

6:56

playing against Manchester United as a

6:58

team it for so long were

7:00

dominating English football but after of

7:02

sits away recently you've had twenty

7:04

shots against and your team to.

7:07

D. Sales that when you're playing against them they're

7:09

going to give you a chance. or or. It's

7:12

easy to create chances against them. Are

7:17

things like comments and early where it was such

7:19

a confident side this the season I'm we believe

7:21

going into the most of the games that if

7:24

we it with what if we're on our gamed

7:26

and with a flea create chances are seen as

7:28

it a big club bomb we've we've done

7:30

well against and in both games a season so

7:32

it is so them how well we can do

7:35

I'm on our day I'm like oh my son

7:37

at their great team so for separate on many

7:39

chances sciences or them how could be been. I.

7:42

Just before we let you go, somebody actually

7:44

gonna start our analysis by looking at the

7:46

penalty that that Sam Adam Smith I gave

7:48

away. early in the second half

7:50

and but what was he saying about that

7:52

discs? Did he feel a little bit hard

7:55

done by. Yeah,

7:57

I'm obviously haven't seen it back properly.

7:59

Bomb. If you've ever seen a happy

8:01

I'm never nice given away a penalty

8:03

am. But yeah sometimes if it would

8:06

be decent happen like that. I'm Medicine

8:08

managed to say about Cap I'm yeah,

8:10

I'm so he'll He'll be annoyed A

8:12

Binary. Handled entity beautifully. Dominic regulations

8:14

on another golf another point on so many.

8:16

I wish you all for the rest of

8:18

the season and of course hopefully for the

8:21

arises. Well, Thank you

8:23

for zag as. Second, As

8:25

something so like he has his team to points and

8:27

I let's start with Issa Handball. then. Debated.

8:31

It's a seem like there was a redesigned look

8:33

on Adam Smith's face and it didn't. Seem

8:36

like Siri Sanborn as he

8:38

was a minute later. This

8:41

evolved is an important for Adam

8:43

Smith from Hong Kong single and

8:45

has a keyhole home of putting

8:47

of his position as the ball.

8:49

Guys that like having any has

8:51

a site that that is that

8:53

nursing. Adam Smith knows that we

8:55

think that he pencil needs. His

8:57

father's was the ball and reaction

8:59

at the end of this poll

9:01

says it all for me personally

9:03

because he knows what he needs.

9:05

His arm slot records the ball

9:07

as is as a society is

9:09

of ha ha. Funny. It's a penalty. Is

9:12

a switch out? There is a part

9:14

of the first rate is one of

9:16

those is thought full of the and

9:19

that's how things react Sometimes. I

9:22

have personally of course we the want to see

9:25

me see them but this the current climate the

9:27

why the hopper was move with somebody humble are

9:29

seem a lot was given them that you know

9:31

you can see there is the slices movement fiat

9:34

and just the put his right arm out it's

9:36

just gets his shoulder in a position I remember

9:38

you're right I think Marcus lesser behind him and

9:40

Marcus's of beyond if I. Think he finds

9:42

it's way out. the part that lets it

9:44

run across his body and in cook up

9:46

the line. but I think this just and

9:48

it happens if we got split seconds to

9:50

think about decisions and sometimes you panic and

9:52

it just felt that slightest little panic like

9:54

that and just a slight movement and it

9:56

was all the that would actually been on.

9:58

Fails every every level. It's going to be over-turned

10:01

main. Never. After that, pretty major to over-turn it,

10:03

which wasn't going to happen. So, Bruno

10:06

Fernando steps up and converts the penalty. How well

10:08

did he play tonight? He was fantastic. You

10:10

know, he takes so much responsibility on him.

10:12

It's just so calm. He ran

10:15

over, collected the ball and, you know, he wanted to win

10:17

the game. Of course, he would. Grab the ball and was

10:19

like to the rest of his team. He sent a signal, you

10:21

know, come on, let's go and do this now. But

10:24

it wasn't to be. He gets a lot of

10:26

stick, Bruno. Lots of stick from people and

10:28

some of it I get. I

10:31

also think it's unfair. I

10:33

think when I watch him play, I

10:36

see a player that genuinely cares. There's

10:38

a frustration. Yes, there's someone's petting. Sometimes

10:40

he's calling out his players. But

10:42

when I, if I was coming into that club or if

10:44

it's the manager, if he keeps his job, Eric Tenhago, whoever

10:46

comes in, he's the sort of player you

10:49

look at to build the team around. He's a

10:51

player. He makes things happen. I see

10:53

him try to order people around. But what the

10:55

frustration comes from and we'll look at some of

10:57

the goals. I don't think people care as much

10:59

as what he does. I

11:01

see that as it's

11:04

like an epidemic at the club where people don't

11:06

really do enough. Do they really care? Do they

11:08

go flying into tackles? He on the

11:10

other hand does and I think he gets a sometimes

11:12

gets himself into situations that he perhaps shouldn't. But I

11:15

tell you what he cares about the club, the team.

11:17

He thought is what he's got his team back into

11:19

that game today. I know it's a penalty, but the

11:21

first goal. But I just see a player that you

11:23

can build a team around and I don't see there's

11:26

too many others right now that are showing that kind

11:28

of appetite that he does. What were you going to

11:30

say on that? I was just going to ask you why, why

11:33

aren't others following his kind of lead because he

11:35

does show it week in week out. I totally

11:37

agree with you. He, you know, he often has

11:39

a little bit of patch and I think the

11:42

hangover from last season's defeat at Anfield, you

11:44

know, the way he behaved in that game has

11:47

hung over him and I think he knows that.

11:49

But you're right. He shows up every single week.

11:51

But what I off the back of what you

11:53

said, it's just interesting to wonder what you think

11:55

about why are the players not? Yeah, it's

11:57

a great. It's like it's a culture at the club,

11:59

isn't it? I see

12:01

players, I see champions league, multiple champions

12:03

league winners, at times walking around the

12:05

pits looking like they don't care. And

12:08

you can't have that. So you think he is the

12:10

character, the type of character, we've gone a little bit

12:12

off course here, do you think

12:14

he is the type of character that they'll

12:16

be looking at, people like today Brailsford who's

12:19

very much big on culture and

12:21

building that winning environment. Do you know

12:23

what I'm big on? I

12:25

get the culture thing but I'm also big on good players,

12:27

players that want to care, want to run around, want to

12:30

do well for their team. And I think if you've got

12:32

the right players in and around him, you've done it at

12:34

Portugal, I get his frustration,

12:36

it must drive him insane. We'll

12:38

look at the second goal that they conceded by Clive

12:40

and he's trying to get his team up the pitch

12:42

and he sees Casamiro there and he's walking around and

12:44

jogging and Coby Maina has got to be careful because

12:46

he doesn't want to get dragged into that as well.

12:48

You know, I want to see more energy from him.

12:51

It wasn't the Brentford game which was a horror

12:54

show. I mean it's like the sequel today.

12:56

It's never quite as bad but you were

12:58

still watching it through your hand. If

13:00

you're a United fan you're going, what is up with my

13:03

team? We've got a stats guy, he's told me,

13:05

I had to ask him five times. They've

13:07

had... Because he's not listening, the first four.

13:10

No, you need the two... Man

13:12

United have had 241 shots

13:15

against them in the last 10 games. I

13:17

said to him, are you sure that's not the whole season?

13:19

He said, no, the last 10 games. How can that be?

13:22

How can that be when the players that they've

13:24

got, that they can concede that many opportunities and

13:26

give up that many chances against them? We're not

13:28

talking about brilliant teams, we're talking about Bournemouth, we're

13:30

talking about Brentford to this world. That

13:33

is not good enough and that's because

13:35

people aren't doing their jobs. Sorry

13:37

Ringo, you know, I didn't mean it. Yeah,

13:40

Ringo. Ringo time. Right,

13:44

let's go back to the second half,

13:46

Bruno Fernandez who Jamie thinks they should

13:48

be building the team around, equalised from

13:50

the penalty spot and then right

13:52

at the end of the game there is a crucial

13:54

moment where Manchester United might have lost this and

13:58

the outfield referee decides to go. I did

14:00

it was a penalty when Ryan Christie was

14:05

taken out by Willie Tambualla. Izzy,

14:08

what do you think? VR have had a very

14:10

close look, they say contact is outside the box.

14:13

And that's what I thought initially, and for

14:15

me I stand by that actually. The

14:17

contact of course was Tambualla, so he had

14:20

to step and he steps it exactly the

14:22

right time that it's not in the box. Six

14:24

inches deeper and it's a penalty so more.

14:26

But Christie's really clever here, the way he

14:28

nicks the ball past Tambualla. And I think,

14:30

to be honest, I think Tambualla's got his

14:33

body shaped wrongy square, which means that he

14:35

actually takes Christie out with his arm. You

14:37

can't really see it on this picture. So

14:39

is that an important point Izzy, in terms

14:41

of being a defender in that situation, to

14:43

try and get yourself side on? I

14:46

think he needs to get side on and show him

14:48

down the line. I think his body shape's a little

14:50

bit too square, wasn't the centre back myself, but I'm

14:52

just looking at that situation the way it unfolded. He's

14:54

only 19 years old, like I don't

14:57

want to be too harsh on him, but I think he steps it exactly the

14:59

right time. He steps any slower, it's a penalty. We'll

15:02

have another look because, Jamie, just a second, we'll

15:04

have another look, because there was also the other

15:06

question to consider about whether the infringement

15:08

continued into the box. Was

15:10

there maybe a question that Tambualla is holding on to

15:13

him as well? That's my point with this. This is

15:15

where they're really lucky. I'll be interested to see what

15:17

Dermot Gallagher made on Monday morning on Sky Sports, and

15:19

how he interprets this one. I

15:23

think once he steps out, it's almost irrelevant,

15:25

because you are still holding him and stopping

15:27

him running into the box. That's

15:29

where I actually thought this wasn't going to get overturned.

15:31

You can see it's like a rugby tackle. He sticks his

15:34

left arm out, and

15:36

you're stopping a player getting into that box. It's almost

15:39

irrelevant whether he's outside the box, because he is going

15:41

to get into the box now, and that left arm

15:43

comes out, and that's where it stopped him. Is it

15:45

not more of a shoulder rather than a hold? Christie

15:49

runs into him at that point. At that point, I understand what

15:51

you're saying, there's contact, but because

15:53

he's square Tambualla and Christie runs into him, you've

15:57

got to say what can Tambualla do in that situation. as

16:00

he runs into it. Yeah, but like you say, you

16:02

just don't get involved in that situation. Once that left

16:04

arm comes out, as soon as you do that, you're

16:06

blocking the player. I think he's just got to just

16:08

run him down the side. But once he's made… And

16:11

I think Ariola, the manager, will say, no

16:14

doubt at all, that he's stopping him getting into the box.

16:16

Before we hear from him, did you say penalty or not

16:18

penalty? Yeah, I was amazed it

16:20

got overturned. Look, I get that it's outside

16:22

the box, but the fact

16:24

that he's still travelling into the box was my point

16:27

and why I think it should have been given. We'll

16:29

come now then, Antonio Iraola with David Craig. Antonio,

16:33

another fascinating game here, but is this

16:35

a game that perhaps you could be

16:37

taking more than just one point from?

16:40

Yeah, obviously we cannot finish nothing with

16:42

the point. You have to give importance

16:45

to a point against Man United, but

16:47

I think we were. The

16:50

team that decided the three points, I think we

16:54

missed. We missed chances, especially in the first

16:56

half. I think we should have gone with

16:58

a better result even in the second half,

17:00

but also the reason we

17:03

didn't win is because we missed

17:05

the chances and all the refereeing decisions went against

17:07

us. It appeared

17:09

in the first half that the two goals you

17:12

scored had a greater degree of difficulty than some

17:14

of the chances that you didn't take. Yeah, of

17:16

course. I think we had a lot of very

17:18

good clear chances, I would say, sometimes in Man

17:20

United, sometimes in our bad finishes. We

17:22

were doing a good game, I think we were playing

17:26

well. You know that United always

17:29

finds a way to be dangerous, to score

17:31

the goals. When

17:34

you don't finish these kinds

17:36

of teams, they

17:39

find a way to score. Two

17:41

huge decisions in the game, we'll look

17:43

at them in isolation. First of all,

17:46

the handball that you conceded with Adam

17:48

Smith. What was your view? There was

17:50

some disagreement of opinion amongst our commentators

17:52

whether they thought it was or wasn't handballed.

17:55

I think it's a, I think it's in the

17:57

rules. It comes from a revolt from

17:59

your own teammate. He doesn't have

18:01

this instinctive whatever, he does his instinctive

18:03

like he is the ball and I

18:06

think he does normally they don't call

18:08

this kind of hand balls.

18:12

If you want to continue with the decisions, I

18:14

will continue. And then Ryan

18:16

Christie there was a big shout from your

18:18

bench for a penalty. Having had the ability

18:20

to have a look at it, do you

18:23

believe it was then the right decision? Completely,

18:25

I believe completely. Because if you see the

18:27

penalty they call us against Newcastle, we start

18:29

pulling two metres outside the box. He goes

18:31

inside, okay it's a penalty because it works. And

18:34

when he starts first frame, you put

18:36

the first frame more probably one centimeter

18:38

outside the box but he continues to

18:40

stop the players inside, one two metres

18:42

inside. You know, he's not, and he's

18:44

in the last moment, he's not just

18:46

one kick, no no, he

18:48

goes with Ryan Christie two metres inside the

18:50

box. So clear penalty for you? For me

18:52

it's obvious but it's not the penalty, it's

18:55

the other penalty. It's that Covimino dies

18:57

in the first half, it's no yellow car, second

18:59

half, Ryan Christie, there

19:01

is contact, dies is a yellow car for diving.

19:04

What does it change? What's the

19:06

reason why one half is a

19:08

yellow car and the other half

19:10

is not a yellow car? I

19:13

think we're back to a conversation we have with many

19:15

managing coaches. Consistency, is

19:17

that what you're suggesting? Yeah, I

19:20

understand that we are safe, we are, you know, but

19:22

for us it's very important every point, very

19:24

very very important and we are having all

19:27

the last games, since we are safe, all the last

19:29

games, all the teams have gone against us. We've

19:32

been unlucky but at the end

19:34

we need the same respect of the other

19:36

teams, we all are playing for

19:38

important things, all the teams are playing for important

19:41

things. And it cost us one point for us,

19:43

a lot of work and hard work, and

19:45

at the end it's normal, we demand

19:48

some consistency. Can

19:51

you understand his frustrations? Yeah,

19:53

I can, I mean for me it's still not a penalty, I think

19:56

the contact is outside the box but I mean I understand what

19:58

he's saying about... the first

20:00

one and the natural reaction but he's a

20:02

manager who wants to win and he sees

20:05

this as an opportunity to beat Manchester

20:07

United side which is vulnerable at the

20:09

moment and it says a lot that

20:11

he's come away disappointed. Yeah, they've

20:13

not managed to do the double over Manchester

20:15

United for the first time but they have

20:17

stopped United beating them for the

20:20

first time in two league games in a

20:22

season. We'll hear from the Manchester

20:24

United boss next. You

21:01

More frustration tonight from Manchester United. Drew two

21:04

a piece this evening at Bournemouth but it

21:06

might well have been worse. Here's their boss

21:08

now, Eric St. Harz with David Craig. Eric,

21:13

once again today did we see two

21:15

sides of your Manchester United team, a

21:18

team that occasionally can self-harm but a

21:20

team that also can find in it

21:22

the fight to come back against adversity?

21:26

Yes, definitely we are the team's most

21:28

resilient and character. We

21:31

want to win and twice we fought

21:33

back from losing positions but we

21:36

come in losing positions and that's

21:38

totally unnecessary. Totally

21:41

necessary, we lose three

21:43

times balls in areas where you should

21:45

not lose those balls that

21:47

we were not always good organised especially

21:49

over the right side. There

21:52

came some gaps and the opposition to

21:54

benefit from it and we should have

21:56

done this better. Particularly

21:58

in the first half. Were you

22:00

fortunate perhaps to go in at half-time

22:02

with just that goal deficit given the

22:05

amount of chances that Bournemouth were creating?

22:07

And Eric, what do you think is

22:09

behind the fact that your players are

22:11

allowing the opposition to have that amount

22:14

of freedom? First

22:16

of all, I just explained,

22:19

we lose balls in

22:22

position like the first goal. It was

22:24

actually a very good setup outside, but

22:26

then we lose control of the ball. And

22:29

then of course it's still not a goal and it should

22:32

not happen even at goal. But

22:34

it's about taking control of the ball there. And

22:37

there were two or three more occasions

22:39

where we should have dealt better with

22:41

the ball. And

22:43

then the second part is over the right

22:45

side, we had problems to stop them. And

22:48

there were clear jobs to do there and it

22:51

was not always be done in the first half. And then

22:53

you get problems. Second half was

22:55

better. We

22:58

took more responsibility and then we closed the

23:00

side. It had also to do

23:02

in the back line, Harry McQuay was struggling in

23:04

the first half. We

23:07

were very pleased he overcame because we

23:09

don't have centre-halves anymore. And

23:11

then you see second half, his leadership

23:14

is coming in, he's guiding and then

23:16

we are more closed. You've

23:18

been very honest there and said that

23:20

your team did make mistakes today. When

23:22

we spoke before the game, it was

23:24

about individuals cutting out mistakes. Were these

23:27

collective mistakes today or once again was

23:29

it individual? Individual

23:31

mistakes like the ball losses and we

23:34

have played, they can do better with the ball. But

23:36

I say over the right side, just go

23:39

with your opponent, that is your job and

23:42

close it and it's

23:44

a small part in it.

23:46

It's about collaboration but the

23:49

main part is discipline. Clearly

23:51

you want to eradicate these mistakes. You're spending

23:53

plenty of time with your coaching staff up

23:55

at Carrington trying to do that. Is

23:57

this something that's going to take

23:59

time? or is it something that

24:01

you can do more immediately because

24:04

no team has now faced more

24:06

shots per Premier League game than

24:08

your side this season? Yeah, but

24:11

now we are twice the same back line and

24:15

these players they keep everything and they keep

24:17

their maximum and yeah

24:20

they are young, they are sometimes inexperienced,

24:22

to do it every game in the

24:24

Premier League they have to get used

24:26

to it but that is the demand

24:28

of Manchester United and they have

24:31

to deal with it every opponent is

24:33

so eager to win versus us and

24:35

you have seen also today I'm

24:37

sure about they went to their

24:39

limits and every opponent will go

24:41

to their limits against us but

24:44

we have to take

24:46

and to go

24:48

against them to show resistance and we have

24:50

to control it and we have to dominate

24:52

it. As you've said there there was a

24:55

distinct improvement in the second half you made

24:57

the change with Gennacho taken off what did

24:59

you send out what words did you say

25:01

to your players to send them out with the

25:03

start that second half? Second half, two

25:07

things, stay in the formation in

25:09

possession and don't get

25:12

erratic because we will create a

25:14

lot of space also away and

25:16

the second is do your job

25:18

in the defending part. What

25:21

does this result do today for those ambitions

25:23

that you held and we spoke about before

25:25

the game of still trying to catch Aston

25:27

Villa and Spurs? This is

25:29

not enough we know that we

25:32

know when you're coming into

25:34

the final state of the season this is

25:36

not enough and but

25:39

the truth is today we

25:42

didn't deserve more and maybe

25:45

in the end but if you allow

25:47

them so many chances in the

25:50

first half then as a team you don't

25:52

deserve more and you have to take control

25:54

don't allow them the chances take

25:56

control of the game and score goals

25:59

for yourself. Just finally, Eric,

26:01

football is not easy. Nobody has

26:03

a magic wand. Patience is a

26:06

word that's used a lot. Do people

26:08

have to be patient with your young

26:10

players, this team, the direction you're going,

26:12

and you yourself? Yeah, up

26:14

to them, but it's the truth. We,

26:18

in this moment, with all the problems

26:20

we have, we

26:22

play to our levels. We

26:25

can play very good to our levels when

26:28

everybody is top-on, but

26:30

you have to do it over the course of

26:33

the game, till stoppage time, and in the last

26:35

four games, we dropped points where we often were

26:37

in a winning position. Not today, we were losing

26:39

position and we fought back. Eric, appreciate your time.

26:41

You're welcome. Thank you. He needs patience,

26:43

says Eric Tenhagen. Also, there's a little bit of

26:45

a reading between the lines. What

26:47

do you expect our team to do with

26:50

the amount of injuries we have right now,

26:52

particularly, I suppose, at the back

26:54

with Martinez, Shaw, Varan, Lindelof, all missing?

26:57

If they're playing, is the first goal you would

26:59

expect to be avoidable today, is he? Yeah,

27:02

and I think the first goal was

27:04

the epitome of both teams. I think this

27:06

is Manchester United. I'd say

27:08

a little bit naive in this area. Bournemouth went

27:10

man for man, and in here,

27:12

there's quite a lot to break down, but

27:14

they lose the ball really cheaply, and

27:17

this is where we flip it onto Bournemouth and go slanky, ruthless,

27:21

and they know that Bournemouth play, they turn the ball

27:23

over, they attack, they score. But

27:25

there's a few bits in this. If you watch the

27:27

ball as it goes up to Hoelen, where's the communication

27:29

to say bring it down? You do not

27:31

need to try and check that first time into

27:33

the path of Garnaccio. This bit

27:35

of skill here from Felanque is so clean,

27:38

powerful through the goal. But

27:40

this is the picture which epitomizes

27:42

Bournemouth. They have gone player for

27:44

player. This is his centre

27:47

back. As the ball has gone over his

27:49

head, he's

27:52

the one that wins the ball. This is where Hoelen needs

27:54

to keep hold of it, and this

27:56

is where they nick it. If I

27:58

rewind it a little bit in here... They're brave aren't they?

28:01

They're really brave. They're very proud football men.

28:03

But it's the trade-off with the way that they play and

28:05

they're so comfortable in it. If you look at the distance

28:07

between Sonesi and Dallow here, that's

28:10

bizarre. That's a centre back and that's a full back. But

28:13

they're so comfortable in their roles, extremely well

28:16

coached by the look of things. But

28:18

if you just watch Lewis Cook in here, he's

28:21

the one that actually ends up as a

28:23

centre midfielder covering the space to allow Sonesi,

28:25

whose attributes allow him to be front foot

28:27

and to win the ball. And what they

28:30

think about doing as soon as they win

28:32

it is can we attack? But

28:35

from Manchester United's perspective in here, I'm like just

28:37

keep the ball. You do not need to force

28:39

it. And then this bit is

28:42

just purely Salangi. Because that's exposing a weakness, isn't it, that they

28:44

have at the bat? Absolutely. Yeah,

28:46

they've just gone straight down the side. They

28:48

targeted that area between Dallow, the

28:51

whole game in the first half especially, and then

28:53

they got their just rewards. But they did fight back. They

28:55

did show character get back in the game, Jamie. Yeah, yeah.

28:58

It was a scruffy goal. But

29:01

sometimes you're away from home, you're struggling, you're 1-0,

29:03

you're not in the most confident mood

29:05

as it is. Bruno's heavily involved

29:08

in this game, in this goal. He's always moving,

29:10

always on the move trying to get something there.

29:12

And they don't pick him up. You just watch

29:14

him there, number eight. No player really attracts themselves

29:16

to him. It's too easy for Manchester United's point

29:18

of view. The ball force him, too

29:21

easy. There's no one really getting close enough. And that's

29:23

what he does ever so well, Bruno. But when he

29:25

sits there, unless he's trying to get back with him.

29:28

He's almost then got to go, OK, where is he again? Let me

29:31

just get man for man. Let me try and stop him. But it's

29:33

almost like that is two, three yards always. Never anyone close enough to

29:35

him. That is an element of luck.

29:37

It pops up lovely for him. And

29:39

he dispatches it well with his left foot. You

29:43

know, it's a decent strike. But it

29:45

was one that they needed because they weren't really in

29:47

the game. They weren't free flowing. And Bournemouth looked at

29:50

better sides. Remember, he hit the

29:52

bar just before halftime. Really good strike from outside

29:54

the area. But it was Bournemouth that took the

29:56

lead into the interval because of the terrific effort

29:58

from Justin Clive. Always

30:01

have to work hard to get the first name

30:03

and not say Patrick. I played the Izzie's dad,

30:05

his dad could play and this kid's not bad

30:07

either. Well he shows some really nimble feet here.

30:10

I'll come back to it. I want to come back to something about May

30:12

Knight and Serp in a second. Let's just look at it from Bournemouth's point

30:14

of view here. Because it's a good piece of play. They moved the ball

30:16

really well. They get into a really

30:18

good area. Like Izzie said, you're trying to find

30:20

little weaknesses in teams and

30:22

how you can exploit that. Now,

30:24

just take that back. That's

30:27

not too bad. You can see there that

30:29

Willie Campala is now

30:31

pointing. He realises he's got a bit of a problem. Could

30:34

Garnet Cho maybe do better just to stop

30:36

that ball getting played into adjusting

30:39

Clive Oats feet? He doesn't do enough. For

30:41

me, he's got to try and work that, check his

30:43

shoulder, look what's behind you. Can I scan? Can I

30:46

screen? He doesn't do it well enough. Dallo's

30:48

obviously got a problem because he's got the left winger out

30:50

here. What

30:53

I would say to Willie Campala in

30:55

that situation, if you're not sure, there's

30:57

too big a gap, obviously, between Harry Maguire as

30:59

well. You've just got to go to him. He's

31:02

your man. Go and get close to him. He doesn't.

31:04

He's trying to point. By that time, it's too late.

31:07

Now you've got a problem because a player is going to

31:09

pick up speed, get into the box. He wants to shift

31:11

it onto his right foot really well like he does, and

31:14

then reverse it very quickly into

31:16

the corner and the near post. We were saying

31:18

about the role of Casamiro in all of this. When

31:22

it unfolds, we had

31:24

an excellent discussion off air about

31:26

it. When the centre back is in control

31:28

of the players in front of him, so

31:32

the point you made about Garnaccio coming across

31:34

the ball, that's

31:36

the communication. Get in line of

31:38

the ball, right shoulder. You're screaming from behind,

31:40

right shoulder, right shoulder. As soon as Casamiro,

31:42

the centre midfielder, sees the space. This

31:45

is it for me. Casamiro now, he's your

31:48

two midfield players. I think about May United

31:50

at their best. Engine rooms, I think about

31:52

Keens, Skolz, players like that who will get

31:54

around people. This is the engine room

31:56

right now. You've got Maynou and you've

31:58

got Casamiro. Well,

32:00

I'm a big fan of this obviously some of

32:02

the things he's doing incredible But look a couple

32:04

of things one how deep they are and look

32:07

at also how passive they are and how easy

32:09

it is because nobody's Showing any aggression because there's

32:11

a midfield player there You could maybe go go

32:13

and press in and go get close in they

32:15

don't and but and just keep your on Casa

32:17

Miro now Ball gets played out to him

32:20

now. That's gonna it can see a problem. He's

32:22

nasty decides to walk now Why are you walking

32:24

there? Why are you walking? There's

32:27

things happening so quickly You've

32:29

realized that I'm thinking now Roger. I'm thinking Declan

32:31

Rice two are the best sort of players in

32:33

that position Are they going to be walking there

32:35

when they know that he's gonna go face him

32:38

and a one-on-one? Situation as quickly as he can

32:40

why is he not thinking? I want to come

32:42

across and help my mate He's 19 years of

32:44

age. Just you've got experience. You've won Champions League

32:47

just as it carries on now look He's still

32:49

walking now. We decide okay. I'll get into a

32:51

bit of a jog now look

32:53

how close he is When

32:55

he's gonna shoot There

32:58

if he would have run or had

33:00

just decided to just change pace a little

33:02

bit He would have blocked that is there

33:04

not also the point Jamie if you if

33:06

you're we're talking about Protecting a 19 year

33:08

old center back in Willy Kamwala Is

33:11

there not also the point that Dallow outside him

33:13

as making his a hundredth Premier League appearance in

33:15

Manchester United? He's got Harry Maguire's played in countless

33:17

big games for Manchester United and England behind him

33:20

and a and a European couple in Casa Miro In front

33:22

of him should they not be communicating with him to tell

33:24

him where he should be now you can't that's too late

33:26

There I don't I don't agree with that. He has to

33:28

see that danger first of all, so he's made a mistake

33:31

But what I'm just on about is the

33:33

culture of just running and sprinting and helping

33:36

your teammates And I watch Casa Miro at

33:38

times today And I'm I have watched him

33:40

for many years and he's one of my

33:42

favorite defensive midfield players in world football I've

33:44

loved watching him play, but right now I

33:48

Watch him. It looks like he's in soccer aid It

33:50

looks like he's playing at such a pace where

33:52

the game is it's a bit of fun And

33:54

you know their celebrities coming on the pitch. No,

33:56

this is the Premier League. You've got so much

33:59

experience and that is isn't really a case of

34:01

anything else apart from running. And I think

34:03

to myself, Rodry, what would Rodry do in

34:05

that situation? He'd have been flying out there

34:07

to help his teammates. And

34:10

that's what you should be doing. And I

34:12

don't know why. And this is my point

34:14

with Kobimenu. Now,

34:16

he's got everything that will roll to his feet.

34:18

But you need great role models to get to

34:20

the top. You need people that you're going to

34:22

look up to and aspire to be like. And

34:24

at the moment, he's not setting the right examples

34:27

to the young players around him. And as I

34:29

say, I'm a massive fan. But that isn't good

34:31

enough. Because if he'd have sprinted, he would have

34:33

stopped that. Soccer

34:35

8's harsh. I've seen you play soccer 8. Yeah, and

34:37

I was useless in soccer 8. I couldn't run. That's

34:42

why I couldn't think of a better analogy. When

34:47

we come back, we're going to have a little

34:49

chat about Dominic Solanke, who is surely knocking on

34:52

the door now for England. 17

34:54

for this season. We'll discuss those options

34:57

facing Garret Southgate, ahead of the

34:59

Euros this summer. Here

35:12

is a player who is absolutely brim

35:14

full of confidence right now, leaving Willy

35:17

Kambwala on the deck and slotting that

35:19

pass Andre Anana for the opening

35:21

goal of this game, which finished 2-2 with

35:23

Manchester United. But what about Dominic Solanke for

35:26

England? I'm sure that's what former fans

35:28

are asking. Here is the updated top scorer's

35:30

chart for this season, a penalty for Haaland

35:32

today. Solanke up to 17, 2

35:35

for Alexander Isaac today as well.

35:38

And when we think about English

35:40

options, Ollie Watkins, Solanke, Cole Palmer, trying

35:42

to force his way into

35:44

the squad as well. Let's

35:47

just change this graphic on and show you the options that

35:49

Garret Southgate has. Harry

35:52

Kane, of course, will be going. Who

35:54

else should be on the plane, is he? Well,

35:56

well, well. I mean, Solanke's

35:59

forms. Terrific, you

36:01

know, he's been unstoppable But

36:03

for me we talk about Solanke going going to

36:05

the Euros I wonder why he wasn't at the

36:08

last international window for Garris I was getting his

36:10

stuff I think it's too late for him then

36:12

possibly possibly it's a great point. Why didn't you start

36:15

looking? Well, yeah, let him see what he's like in

36:17

that company I think you look at the Ollie

36:20

Watkins and even Tony a very different period And

36:23

if the squad sizes do get increased

36:25

to 26, I think there's

36:27

definitely poses a question You know how many

36:29

of those strikers can go Southgate take can

36:31

he take Tony and Watkins the Solanke sneaking?

36:33

I'm not sure but I would like to

36:35

have thought that if he was in the

36:37

plans He would have been looked at in

36:39

the last I've been told I have to go I haven't

36:41

only had a longer run up Jamie's had a couple of years Miss

36:44

he's been on the last two games He's

36:47

got obviously got a little bit carried a bit of a knock at the moment But

36:49

I was going to ask is Dominic Solanke at

36:51

the wrong club That's

36:54

a great question because if he was If

36:57

he was getting those kind of numbers at

36:59

as an example this former Club, Liverpool It

37:02

is different, you know you get once you go

37:04

to a top four top six club and you're

37:06

playing regularly England call-ups

37:09

come whether that's right or wrong that

37:11

might go against him and it's a it's

37:13

Extremely harsh because I'm seeing a player that

37:15

is at the in the top of his

37:18

game at the top of his game He's

37:20

doing everything right now Heather's individual goals tappings

37:22

Forget Jerry Bowen for now Jamie he could play

37:25

as a wide forward as well You're taking Harry

37:27

Kane you can have one of Solanke Tony Watkins

37:29

who's going sorry. I think I'm losing the signal

37:31

with oh My

37:35

goodness David, it's your 50th birthday. You're asking

37:37

the whole question Between

37:42

Solanke so right now the squad is you

37:44

can it's 22 23 is it yeah, and

37:46

it might change to good well Go to

37:49

26. This is what all the coaches are

37:51

campaigning for say are because the tough decisions

37:53

You're gonna have to make dominant is

37:55

he makes a great point But the fact that Dominic

37:57

didn't go in the last squad is certainly counts again

38:00

against him. I

38:02

think Ivan Tony in the

38:04

last game obviously scored the penalty and

38:06

I would say he did better than Ollie Watkins. Ollie

38:09

Watkins is a bit more mobile. I

38:11

think he's going to go with Ivan Tony.

38:13

We're going off that. We're going off that.

38:15

Southgate and his staff are going off everything

38:18

else. How are they conducting themselves around the team? What

38:21

they're like for Team morale, the culture, everything around that.

38:23

That will have something to play in it. Thank you.

38:25

We've got a party to go to. Thank

38:27

you. You're not invited. Who would

38:29

you take up the floor? Tony.

38:31

To the party. To the party

38:33

today. Today's 50th. You didn't invite me to your party.

38:37

Today's 50th. Yeah, 50th. Who

38:39

would you take? I think Tony's got

38:41

to be in the question just purely for his penalties. It's

38:44

really difficult. I mean, the numbers... Ollie Watkins. That's

38:46

what he gets paid

38:50

the big bucks for. I'm glad we got there in

38:52

the end. The question is not why didn't you get

38:55

invited to my 50th. The question is why a 50-year-old

38:57

man doesn't have a grey hair on his head. But

38:59

anyway, James, thanks very much. There's a few sneaking in

39:01

these days.

39:03

Don't worry about that. All right.

39:05

Thank you very much. This is what you

39:07

have to look forward to. Don't forget the golf

39:10

is continuing right now on Sky Sports main event.

39:12

It's getting exciting in the Masters and then tomorrow.

39:14

Liverpool Palace from 1. Arsenal, 4.30. Monday night

39:18

football. Chelsea Everton from 6.30. And

39:21

game of the day is a

39:23

thriller. The city ground between Nottingham

39:26

Forest and Woolf. It's

39:28

thanks as ever to Izzy Christensen and Jamie

39:31

Rednapp. Manchester City have gone back to the

39:33

top of the table tonight. But

39:35

for how long? Bye from us.
