Rebecca Lowe

So I think they'll probably end up keeping him.

Gary Neville conspicuously absent on Sky Sports yesterday, but he was over with Rebecca Lowe and Phil Neville on USA Network.

I keep seeing it being called.

USA Network.

Yeah, the schadenfreude has subsided a bit because we've all gotten so used to United not being very good that it's not something worth celebrating that much.

I remember talking to Rebecca Lowe or texting back and forth with her after the World Cup because we had talked about Manchester United.

And to your point, it's actually a compliment, even if it's a backhanded compliment.

But so many people hate watch matches.

Yeah, 100% Henry.

And I know a good friend of the show, Rebecca Lowe, and her son who, you know, Rebecca grew up as a Crystal Palace fan and loves Crystal Palace.

And Paul is in the game and has managed a lot of teams.

And he loves, I mean, he loves a lot of footballers, but he really loves Bakayo and Arsenal.

Another thing that you talk about in the book that kind of leads to all of this, you know, the decision-making, the power, the removal of the captain, the contracts, communication seems to be something that maybe he looked weak at with media, and you sat in those early presses.

I remember talking to Rebecca Lowe about Mikel in those early presses and how she wanted him to give a little to the media.

But...

Whether or not he was not communicating or connecting on the outside, he was absolutely communicating and connecting on the inside.

It's got, it's crazy.

Like you and Tariqo could just go in and Rebecca Lowe and could just host.

I could be like, I could literally put a made up sport in a different language in front of the three of you and you could somehow make it happen.

So like that, that's, that's the esteem that I hold the three of you in.

Yes.

Rebecca Lowe on soccer.

Relatively new, at least here in the States, but she does a great job.

I think if you looked at all those people and you're like, what are their broadcast measurables versus Ernie Johnson? What is their DVOA? Yeah.

Robbie Musto, who was on there? I can't remember who was the other one.

Anyway, Rebecca Lowe asks them, you know, what happened here? What did City get wrong in this match? And both guys said pretty unequivocally, nothing.

Villa were better.

Villa is a really good team.

I think it has to be resolved this season if the Premier League want any credibility here, because there was a really good piece of the day.

I couldn't believe NBC actually did it at the commentary with when they were there saying Rebecca Lowe was like, this city team is purring.

It was a couple of weeks ago and they'd made it five out of five or six out of six.

And they're like, OK, they've made it six out of six, but.

like it was fine i think it was fine i think there's too much of her i think i think it's just it's fine when it should have been better i guess but it's fine yeah

the things i liked about her were the way that she is basically a mirror for rebecca yes this is yeah we Yeah.

Reminding Rebecca of where she used to be and how far she's come.

And like one of the things that I love a lot about the season as a whole is Rebecca's journey throughout it, both in being amazing and wonderful friends with Keely, which is that's the best part of the whole season.

But also the fact that she is, you know, moving forward with her life and deciding what to do with it and the kind of person she wants to be.

And having Zelda in there and having her immediately bounce off Zelda because she recognizes that kind of anger was really, I think, an important part of Zelda's piece.

They're bookending the success.

They take their promo that people made fun of and they turn it into a promo that's great.
