Summary
Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE.
With Christmas just around the corner, the studio has a festive feel as Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright look back on a big week of football. We start with the Sunderland vs Newcastle derby and the team share memories from some of the biggest rivalries they played in.
The focus then turns to Manchester United after a dramatic 4-4 draw with Bournemouth. We break down Ruben Amorim’s tactical changes, how they’ve improved United going forward and whether they’ve left the side too open at the back.
We also debate Kobbie Mainoo’s future, with questions over his game time and whether he feels stuck at United, while the team are split on what comes next for the young midfielder.
There’s also discussion around the Mo Salah situation as Jamie reflects on his comments and what the future may hold for the Egyptian forward.
Super 6 returns with predictions ahead of another Premier League weekend before we finish with your community questions.
