But you can't have... But we would have heard it if he'd brought somebody in.

You can't have a young manager, young players, young supporters, young owners in terms of Premier League.

They're young owners.

To be honest, I don't think we've ever talked about other people's opinions on this show, but obviously Kevin has played with him, Liam Rossignol, and he said, look, I've played with him.

He said, I just can't recognise this individual.

Almost in some way, it was a massive takedown of him, which, you know, ultimately, he said he's changed, he's swallowed a dictionary.

That's Kevin who'd done Dancing on Ice, wasn't it?

Yeah.

Ian you're right because who in the changing room is exactly the same 10-15 years later when they're a coach or a manager or a pundit everyone's different yeah because they're not in charge of the players obviously find out the philosophy it's horrible to see it is how does this play out because ultimately Chelsea but are we surprised are we surprised it's panning out at Chelsea no I don't think so

same old stuff for Chelsea innit seen it before they're still on the edge they've got a game against Port Vale coming up I think in the FA Cup then they play City United so they've got a chance to win the FA Cup they obviously to be fair finished in the Champions League places they've still got a chance of getting in the Champions League it's going to look at the moment it's tight up there in terms of what's going to happen they've said I read a report this morning that and it was obviously someone had been briefed in the paper that he's staying there he'll be the manager next season or less

But if the vice-captain... I want to read this statement again because I think it's quite brutal after the PSG game.

Say it again, though.

We lost a manager who gave us identity, structure and direction, a Club World Cup winner, and no-one, not even the players, understands why.

Mid-season, everything changed.

The system collapsed, the stability went with him.

Oh, he's fine.

I did.

If you gave me stability, I never once took for granted the idea that you couldn't get injured, you couldn't all of a sudden lose your form.

I played for United.

If they offer me a seven-year deal, I'm just really happy.
