The Fried Footie crew sit down with one of the hottest new football content creators, Mordzs — a rising voice who grew up in the shadow of Old Trafford, with Manchester United in his blood. No one knows the tension of being a United fan better than him: the joy when things finally click, and the doubts that never go away.In this brutally honest but passionate conversation, Mordzs lays out exactly where United stand right now. He raves about Bryan Mbeumo, calling him the best attacker on the pitch against Arsenal, even ahead of Saka and Gyökeres. But he also admits the midfield setup is broken, the goalkeeper situation unsettled, and Rúben Amorim — while a good man-manager — has so far failed to show a convincing tactical identity on the field.One of the sharpest parts of the interview comes when Mordzs breaks down Bruno Fernandes’ new reality. Last season Bruno was untouchable, clearly the best player in the team. But with new signings and higher-quality attackers around him, he’s no longer the undisputed star — which puts more pressure on him to deliver consistently every week.The episode goes far beyond United too. Mordzs explains why he thinks Rashford’s career at Old Trafford is over but why Barcelona is the perfect fit, doubles down on his viral take that Pep Guardiola will never win another trophy at City, and dives into Spurs under Thomas Frank, Chelsea’s dark-horse potential, and frustrations around players turning down their African national teams.What makes it compelling is the balance: this isn’t blind hype or doom-posting. It’s a fan who loves his club, wants to see it succeed, but refuses to ignore the cracks. That mix of passion and honesty makes this one of the most powerful conversations yet on Fried Footie.👉 Follow Mordzs on Instagram: @mordzs⏱ Timecodes0:00 – Intro: Mordzs’ rise2:00 – Growing up in Old Trafford’s shadow & family United stories4:30 – Amorim at United: strong man-management but failing on the pitch8:00 – Arsenal vs United: possession, refereeing & goalkeeper debate11:45 – United’s struggles: finishing 15th & why doubts remain15:20 – Bryan Mbeumo hype: best attacker on the pitch, ahead of Saka18:50 – Midfield problems: Casemiro, Ugarte & broken two-man setup22:10 – Bruno Fernandes’ reality: no longer United’s best player25:40 – Striker talk: Gyökeres disappointment vs Sesko’s upside28:30 – Rashford at Barcelona: why it works better than United31:00 – Pep “cursed” take & what City’s future really looks like33:15 – Spurs under Thomas Frank & Chelsea’s dark-horse potential34:40 – Ghana national team: frustrations, hope & the future
