Winsome, Lose Some (s01e08)

But it seems I was thinking, you know, the discourse is, oh, Michael Carrig is over at hand.

Who will we have now? You know, we begin debating who would be next to hop into his recently vacated chair.

But I was thinking, and I'm not the only one.

The players are here the problem.

How come you can't fire players? Managers are getting fired every five minutes.

But what Manchester United really need to do is fire five or six players because they're not really serving the enterprise best.

I mean, that is what you do when you leave Bruno Fernandes on the bench, right? It's basically soft.

If there's soft quitting or quiet quitting, is that quiet firing? I guess quiet firing is sidelining, basically.

Well, if you actually have him turn out for the reserves... that would be more of a message, really, wouldn't it? Yeah, the bomb squad.

He gets to sit in that seat and watch the game, although I wouldn't envy him having watched that game.

I also don't think that that

seat is particularly pleasant.

You see so many players just freezing with blankets and Gatorade in that seat.

That seems really unpleasant.

That is

its own punishment.

Well, there was one photograph of him and he seemed like Smirky.

Did you see it? He's got this vague, supercilious grin on his face as he's sitting in there.

I do not know what's going on in his head.

For the record, obviously, I did not watch that game because I was busy being happy at the pub watching Liverpool v Brighton.
