Scholes & Butt Debate Carrick's Future, The Title Race & How Van Gaal Used FIFA To Sign Players!

Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt & Paddy McGuinness discuss Michael Carrick's long-term future at Manchester United after he equalled the record for best opening nine games as a Premier League. They also discuss what being the Manchester United manager requires.

After a weekend where Manchester City & Arsenal both won, attention turns to the title race, with Paddy changing his mind on who he think will come out on top! Paul & Nicky debate the importance of set-pieces in the modern game and give their thoughts on Arsenal set-piece coach Nico Jover having a bonus in his contract for every set piece scored.

The boys then answer some incredible audience questions, including who would survive the longest on a desert island and ranking Eden Hazard, Gareth Bale & Mohamed Salah.
