Dan Ashworth to United & Is The Champions League Boring? | Stick to Football EP 19
Welcome back to Stick to Football with Gary Neville, Jamie Carragher, Roy Keane and Jill Scott - the original show from the award-winning The Overlap, brought to you by Sky Bet.
With Ian away in St Lucia and Jill back in the studio, the panel kick off the show with the reaction to the first round of the Champions League knock-out stages, where holders Manchester City beat FC Copenhagen whilst Harry Kane’s Bayern Munich lose to Lazio.
Gary, Jamie, Roy and Jill discuss whether any team can anyone stop Pep’s City, whether the Champions League has gone stale or not and how next season’s rule change could be beneficial to Europe’s elite competition.
As Manchester United have approached Newcastle United’s director of football Dan Ashworth, the team talk about what changes he could bring to Old Trafford if he decides to move and how important the off-the-field staff have on a modern football club.
Lastly we end on our Super 6 segment, has Gary pulled further ahead of Roy and who will they predict in the latest round of fixtures?

Feels wrongy without Wrighty
With Wrighty not present, it feels incorrect
An absent Ian Wright leaves the podcast amiss of something

One of the great thing about GN as a host is that he knows when to shut up and listen to others. The bloke doesnt mind not saying anything for a couple of mins, same during his overlap interviews. Great skill that not too many pundits/journos possess these days.
he's become one of my favorite people, nevermind host.
Considering all his teams mates have said Gary never stops talking, he seems to have taken to presenting very well. it is an art to stop talking and just listen when heading a show.
Yeah he's class, great mentality
Good point, well made. He's not so arrogant that he feels he has to be the main main, he's humble enough to give the others their chance to talk. Excellent host.
Talks enough the rest of the time to shut up for a couple mins
"Banker, you said...?" Roy Keane is hilarious 😂😂
Only criticism for this show is that 1 hour genuinely isn't long enough for an episode. We NEED longer ones!
The prequel before the show officially starts, feels like an after gaff at 5am.
Gary on the gear would be chewing your ear off all night

I agree with Cara. I miss the away goals. Was one if the few people I know that didn’t want it to go
100%
I think they were the best thing about the champions. Just made it different and games felt bigger.
Me too. The only change should have been in extra time. Having an extra 30 minutes to score wasn't fair on home teams.
@@Gagefelstead yeah I agree.
CL ain't the same anymore It was unmistakable a few years ago
I agree with Jamie about the away goal taking some joy from these fixtures. Imagine how massive lazio's 1-0 vs bayern Munich would be if away goals still counted. It would mean that lazio could go to Allianz only needing to score 1. Without the away goal rule it feels like bayern will inevitably roll lazio over as they won't fear lazio getting an away goal. It would add so much more tension to the first legs of the round of 16. Something that's been somewhat stripped away by taking the away goal rule off
Almost as if UEFA wanted to take away from the current format so as to get people to buy into their shiny new one…
@@olliewalton361 also because the underdogs have a better chance with the away goal rule and uefa want the big teams in the last 8 because they want big draws not upsets. Even though upsets are why we watch knockout tournaments as neutrals. New format = mores games = more money to uefa they're trying to squeeze as much money as they can out of the product
@@alexholt6810good point!
You haven't watched much of bayern have you?
I agree mostly. I can't remember the games, but there have been instances where, the lack if away goal rule has improved some fixtures
What I love about Neville is he has no problem being the butt of the jokes calling him a liability as a player but in reality there’s only one or two right backs you could argue are better than him in Premier League History
Is it 12 premier league titles that he has? He can laugh, because he was so consistent that he has no equal. Top guy too.
He did the basics well, I'll give him that, but being one of the best in the premier league history? Ehhhh I don't think so.

Roy Keane, the guy just gets better and better. All football fans are starting to see the depth of his personality and razor sharp wit through this show, something us Irish fans were aware of for years. Glad, everyone gets to enjoy him now.
Calm down
We all knew it. It wasn’t some big secret kiddo 😂
wot u puffin? leprechaun cigars
Strange comment
I can imagine Roy's face reading your comment... "something us Irish fans were aware of for years"...Embarrassing...gimme a break
The away goal in the Champions League was such a good rule - defined the whole feel of the tournament. Getting rid of away goals; VAR; blue cards... do the people in charge know how to make football better?
That's funny because I assumed everyone hated the away goals rule
@@ELCNUmorFnaMehTeveryone did, all the comments just have short memories. It created really defensive mindsets as teams were too scared at home to concede and teams set up to just counter attack away. Pros and cons but no one was happy back then either.
@@ukspringbreaktours there was also far more jeopardy with away goals. But away goals have always been weird
Most boring talk in football for me is director of football talk and general behind the scenes structures and ownership talks.
@@ELCNUmorFnaMehThated everything about it . Why should a goal basically count as 2 . Drawing a game 1-1 and losing makes no sense . Teams getting that away goal and then just playing defensively
Dang Wrighty really adds a lot to this podcast. Has great chemistry with everyone and tells a great story. Hopefully he's back for the next one.
keane's little giggle at the banana >
"Seen bigger".

@@userJ1J123or did it start when you started watching him in a laid back podcast with his friends rather than doing punditry on a game? He’s the same way in his other videos with Neville and they were years ago.
The best bits of the entire show are the pre “recorded” bits
So you only watch the first 5minutes
@@AD82_23 What? ☠️ I watch the whole show but I like their human interactions the most too tho
Facts
@@AD82_23or he just enjoys that segment the most?
"these are big bananas..." And the boys start chuckling 😂😂
Carragher is absolutely spot on with everything he's said about the champions league
Also they should change it back to league winners only. Its now greed
"Banker you say" - Roy had me in stitches! :D
“I’ll change it from boring to actually I just think they’re a little bit unwatchable” Good save Gary 😂
The chat about man city just made me remember how mental villa's performance and win against them was earlier in the season
They smoked us in years I havent see anyone dominate us like that
Wolves too and I even expected us to lose
@@joshuahandley9884 agree you Guys were better but villa really smoked us😭😭
Bit of late night Overlap.. Nice. Bout to roll up a fat one 💨☕
Cool
Christ you must be cool
1000% agree with Carra on the away goals rule
See I couldn't disagree more. You saw too many teams make it through without deserving to. An away goal should have never been worth two at any point in history. If the rule had never existed, no one would be here now begging for it.
Any rule that forces teams to score in both legs is a good rule.
The champions league was fine with groups of four, with away goals I thought, why change it
Keane has a heart of gold not fake,,,, misunderstood
Roy cracking up when Gary was pinned up in tunnel was hilarious!!
Agree about Pep's brilliance, however an aspect not talked about is the way that if someone isn't suitable he can afford to simply bin them off and replace them. He simply hasn't had to deal with a poorly run club, owners not backing him or a sub par squad
I think the fact that pep makes clubs well run might have something to do with success, this isn't Wrexham btw
Haha does he reference it in this episode? Didn’t catch it
Gary was very underrated as a player, and a club man..... far and few between . This pod cast is great and gary has made it . Fair play . Great characters and informative. Class act
Away goal was great. Liverpool were 4-0 up against Barca in that game and there was about 20 minutes to go or so & if Barca scored 1 they were out. The tension and atmosphere that created until full time is also what made the game amazing
I'm a Liverpool fan I really thought we would win 3-1 and go out
Roys head shake when he agrees with Gary is so gold haha 4:98
those 5 mins of pre amble are the why i tune in 😂 something comfortably social about the nothingness of it all
Keano - “I’ve seen bigger” 😂😂😂
sad times when the podcast is as entertaining as the champions league
Instantly deflated knowing Wrighty isn’t in this episode, but will watch it anyway 😂 love this series
I hate the fact that crosses are less frequent during games, the amount of times wingers choose not to cross and instead pass the ball around for it to come to nothing can be infuriating. How many times during the last 10 minutes when teams are chasing a goal do decide to cross and it WORKS! Decent crosses if not scored can also cause chaos for for opposing teams.
And yet in the last World Cup and Eros so many goals from crosses and set pieces.
I just enjoy watching you guys chat over food n tea it is relaxing hearing footballers tlk bout the game in their own sense brilliantshow guys
Was expecting an episode tomorrow morning after not seeing it today or yesterday but I’m here for it. Also Roy saying he’s feeling old today but looking younger than he usually does lol
Roy Keane you LEGEND
“Have you got one of Wrightys hats..?” Lol this show has you giggling straight away😂 #WHEREISWRIGHTY
The away goal only had to be removed from extra time. That was my only issue with it. That the away team in the 2nd leg got an extra 30 minutes to get an away goal if it was a draw.
Absolutely love the pre show before you run the logo
These shows have really brought the best outta keane he seems alot happier and more sociable it's great to see
It’s always nice when he breaks character and smiles etc 😆
I thought it would be on this morning and was so disappointed. Glad I found it tonight! In the US
is it just me that enjoys the small intro/behind the scenes part bit at the start the most? love the channel!
This brings out the best of Roy. I love him anyway, but he loves a laugh! He’s a good lad!
Great lad.
Still waiting on that Ince Keane reunion! Would be a great chat.
Been waiting all week for this! Thank you! ❤
Feel for that producer, getting thrown rule changes and suggestion on the spot. I know its pre-recorded but brilliant entertainment seeing his disbelief.
These episodes have been good for the public perception of Roy Keane imo. He was always dour in tv studios but you can see his funny personality in these.
Agreed. Joe Rogan always says that about podcasts compared to interviews. Long format is much better because personalities shine through
Carra saying this is Ten Hag's football is pretty disingenuous. I think Ten Hag couldn't fully implement his system in his 1st season because of De Gea, so he had to adapt it. This season, he has Onana, but then he lost his entire back 4 and holding midfield for the majority of the season ... He has tried to implement his style at times, but we were shipping goals, so again he has had to adjust. Obviously results and performances need to be better, but I've got faith performances will improve if he's given another 18 months.
Yeah I feel like people forget just how decimated with injuries utd have been this season, it's forced ETH to be more pragmatic in setting up his teams. I shudder to think were we'd be without Maguire and McTominay carrying us this season
Finally! I've been waiting for the latest episode!👌🏾
39:27 Keano is spot on about Ashworth’s lack of loyalty.
Not the same without Wrighty though
Wheres he gone?
🤡🤡🤡🤡
best football show on KZhead each week 🔥🔥🔥
One of the best pod casts out there and at times just feels like you're listening to a group of friends having a chat.
Awwww
I agree with Jamie about the away goal
Finally!! Been waiting!
I actually find City boring, Barca and Bayern under Pep also boring. His kind of football is what Simpsons made a parody on 100%. I like speed and counter attacks.
Pep has removed any flair in todays game
he's intellectualised the game
City are the equivalent of Red Bull in F1, massively successful and probably the best team ever. But sport is about jeopardy and uncertainty, and excitement
Barca were great because Messi could completely change the tempo of the game.
@@Nightsu Netherlands under Van Gaal was also actually dead boring without Robben. He completely changed the excitement of that team. Much like Messi did for Barca.
Always love watching these every week
This show is absolutely brilliant. Every week I am hanging out to watch it
The best show out there. All the way from Canada 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
The only consistently entertaining podcast.
Dave brailsford and Dan ashworth are a match made in heaven. I’ve got high hopes for Utd if they get him.
Can’t be long before Roy has a documentary out!
Dropping this so late means it will be a late one.. brilliant show
Init. I’ve been refreshing KZhead all day for it 😂 like 3 week ago they uploaded at midnight
Ragnick said out loud, “United needs Open Heart Surgery.” He was Right!!
You guys always cheer me up with these podcasts, they are so hilarious and interesting, in a world that is so negative, thank you 👍
Love the banter lads and lass, makes my evening. Only podcast I watch
Funny how they're saying Dan Ashworth will look at injuries and sort out that, he's been at Newcastle where there's a player going down injured every week for the full season
There are revelations now that he was fighting against him from Eddie Howes team. He wasn't very happy at Newcastle
@@EnshroudedLadas a Newcastle fan don’t think he was happy with how much control he had at Newcastle think he was expecting more, Man U are offering more control and in terms of recruitment he didn’t really have a say our head of recruitment Steve nickson is the man
This show is one of the highlights of my week, the insight from these guy’s on the game is outstanding and we are lucky to have them!
Fair play it's a decent listen but 'highlights of your week' christ buddy you need a hobby
Glad you're enjoying the show!
“Put the golden boot there or summat” 😂😂

Tooo funny 😂😂😂
You guys should have FaceTimed in on Wrighy. Bet he’s in a beach in St Lucia with a beer 😂
never ever leave us wait this long for an ep
What a articulate group of pundits the lass especially nice to see
People keep trying to drive the ETH is in thin ice agenda, but it just doesn't wash.Every major Club in Europe was Looking at Him as the Next Boss, about to go Huge, he's built, and rebuilt two League winning Sides, For Ajax, and I'm Convinced INEOS know He's the Best Man For the Job. And if you're sure he isn't, Give me 3 names, you think are better, and Could be an Option
I completely agree...but why are you using so many capital letters where they don't belong?
Did Wright get a one match ban for foul and abusive language?
Always looking for this show, it takes away the boredom seeing the panel laugh
46mins 45 seconds when Gary grabs some toast then looks at roy to see if it's OK haha
Agree bring back the away goals rule
Bloody hell about time 😂
One of the best football series ever made. They need to be throwing awards at this thing.
Blew my candle out and the smoke alarm goes off I thought "oh ffs" till quickly realised its on this ffs 😅
Where's wrighty 😕
St Lucia!
Dead
@@mirkys130I’m alive he says
Head polishing appt
Carra last kick nearly went in rember his last day would been class score that goal
Such a strike. I reckon Gomez's first goal will be the same sort of shot.
Does Gary remember the curler scored by Luis Figo when he was playing for Madrid against United in the Champions League? Just saw a clip of it again, unreal goal. Curled right past him into top bins
Great to listen to Gary and Carra - very knowledgeable 👏
I swear my favourite parts are always before it actually starts
Unusual upload time. Still, not complaining.
Love these - keep them coming. Be good to watch one about the Liverpool set up in the 90's.
This is really, really top stuff. Love it!
removing the away goal was a mistake
The rule change is up there with changes to the 'back pass to the goalkeeper' rule.
Nah it was cool and all,but it's so unfair when I see a team lose and the scoreline aggregate is 3-3 or basically a draw. So why lose?
@@muhannad3486 listen I know it hurts, we got knocked out by leverkusen in the semis in 02 that way but I always liked liked it cause both teams had more reason to fight every game, home team to protect themselves and an away side to knick that away goal(s)
@@ineverswag well let's agree to disagree I think if you win you have to score more than them.
So it’s fine for Guardiola to celebrate a win against Everton like it’s his first league win, but Arteta gets a dressing down if he celebrates a win against Liverpool. Make it make sense.
52:00 cheeky from Roy ;)
I can't stress enough how happy this podcast makes me ❤❤ my highlight of the week.
