Carrick In Charge! KLOPP to United?! Ornstein and McKola REACT
Wayne is joined by David Ornstein and Adam McKola to discuss why Michael Carrick got the Man Utd job, the Manchester derby and if a cheeky bid for Jurgen Klopp could ever work.
The Wayne Rooney Show is back with a heavyweight panel as Wayne, Kelly and Kae are joined by The Athletic’s David Ornstein and Manchester United fan and broadcaster Adam McKola to break down a huge week at Old Trafford.
The discussion centres on Manchester United’s decision to appoint Michael Carrick as interim manager, with Ornstein explaining why the club hierarchy opted for Carrick over Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Darren Fletcher. Wayne gives a unique insight into Carrick’s character, revealing the steely side of his former teammate and why he won’t be a soft touch in the dugout.
Adam goes big with his theory that the club should make an all-out move for Jürgen Klopp, Wayne delivers his verdict on Steve Holland’s arrival in the backroom staff and Ornstein reveals whether United could be active in the January transfer window.
