Summary
Welcome back to the Fan Debate, brought to you by Sky Bet.
Jamie Carragher is joined by Paul Scholes and some of the biggest fan channels across England to dive into all the biggest talking points in football.
We kick things off with the fallout from the Manchester Derby, where Manchester United pulled off a smash-and-grab against a crisis-hit Manchester City. With City looking out of sorts, how does Pep Guardiola turn things around?
From there, we ask the key question: what’s on every club’s Christmas wish list?
Do Liverpool need to strengthen at left-back? Can Chelsea keep up the pressure?
Nottingham Forest are flying high under Nuno Espírito Santo, but can they maintain their momentum? And is Vítor Pereira really the right man to lead Wolves forward?
We also hear from HLTCO, who gives us the lowdown on Crystal Palace and what they need to get their season back on track.

| 0:00.0 | Is Rashford that good that you're actually going to lose that much by him not playing? |
| 0:03.9 | It feels like the end for him, doesn't look happy to lad. The spontaneity that Neba was referring to there is what makes football so beautiful. Oh, you've made to know? I should not forgive him for that. It's just a struggle to see City at the minute. It's not a struggle, it's brilliant to be fair. Survive 10 minutes, no one said a word to me. I've just been tired of quiet. |
| 0:21.9 | But with where we are at right now, |
| 0:23.8 | I don't see us winning the league. It's not struggling. It's brilliant, to be fair. Survive 10 minutes. No one said a word to me. I've just been tired of quiet. |
| 0:21.9 | But with where we are at right now, I don't see us winning the league. |
| 0:25.1 | And you all went on your TV channel and made sure he never got the job. |
| 0:27.9 | I did this. |
| 0:29.3 | But any England ones? |
| 0:31.5 | England. |
| 0:32.3 | No, we f***. |
| 0:41.9 | Hello and welcome back to the fan debate Brought to you by Skybet |
| 0:43.4 | And I'm joined by my fan debate |
| 0:46.0 | What, a partner in crime |
| 0:47.1 | Feels like it, so we should be going |
| 0:50.0 | Get to the weekend, should me? |
| 0:51.2 | Yeah |
| 0:51.4 | Are you feeling on the back of that? |
| 0:52.5 | You seem quite excited on your Instagram stories that are so. |
| 1:11.6 | I can't remember. No, brilliant. Obviously, it wasn't the greatest of games, I don't think, but when there's a way to win it, I think that's probably the best way. I don't think there's much quality in the game, probably doing the worst derby as we've seen for quite some time from |
| 1:11.3 | from both teams. But of course, you take that. I think Diallo was really good on the day. |
| 1:17.3 | He was probably the United's best player, which probably wasn't that difficult. And as we all |
| 1:22.1 | know, City have got some problems. We talk all the while, we've said it on here many times |
