Well, welcome to the Gary Nell podcast. There's only one place to begin, Gary, the game we've just seen

between Manchester United and Bournemouth. Match of the season so far? Yeah, it was a stunning watch,

more for a neutral maybe, but even for me, I was really critical after the Everton in West Ham games

because of just the nature of the performance. I thought it was really bland. The Everton one where

obviously kept three at the back and against one and they were down to ten men

and there's no urgency, there's not a throwing a kitchen sink at it, same against West Ham,

letting large parts of the game drift.

Complete and utter opposite tonight. I can live with that all day long in terms of a performance and a standard

because they played really intent, played the ball forward, always played at full pace. We'll come on to

the mistake shortly, but I just think the way in which also, when United went three two down and

Ruben Amarim then went to 4-4-2 and did the right thing, forget the system, he did the right thing,

he got the right players on the pitch and it looked a massive threat. But credit to Bournemouth. In the first half, I thought they were really, I think they were overrun by United. I thought they were going to be out of the game. I thought that it would be probably two or three nil. But if you don't kill teams off, United, I think you said had more shots in the first half than any other team this season recorded in the Premier League,

which demonstrated their dominance, but still, Bournemouth had one or two good moments and get the goal and still are in it at half time.

And Jamie Carriger's words just coming out before the second half that Ruben Amarin will be thinking we should be further ahead in this game.

True.

The second half was absolute mayhem.

Absolute mayhem.

But just generally in terms of sort of what would be, you know, and the fans feel the same thing.

You know, there were big booze after the West Ham and the Everton game.

There weren't the big boos here after this game tonight.

There was disappointment. But there are a lot of fans we just seen stayed in the stadium to clap the team because they can live with that. If you're a kid coming to United, my kids have come tonight, my two girls have come tonight and they'll be thrilled walking back across that four court. They won't be happy that United haven't won, but they'll have seen a great game of football, and that's what you come to Oltraft for.

You come for entertainment.
