Stick to United

Stick to United with Wayne Rooney is back, and this week Ashley Young joins Wayne and Mark Goldbridge to share his stories from inside the Manchester United dressing room.

Ashley reveals why he chose Man United over Man City, what Steven Gerrard said when he rang about his future and how his first meeting with Sir Alex Ferguson turned into a conversation about horses and wine. He also recalls the moment Ferguson told the squad he was retiring and explains why things changed so quickly under David Moyes.

Plus, Ashley lifts the lid on Louis van Gaal’s three-course lunches and tells the story of how a move to Chelsea fell through before José Mourinho handed him the United armband. Wayne explains why he studied Cesc Fàbregas to adapt to playing alongside Robin van Persie, and the trio discuss the parallels between Michael Carrick’s start and Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s early run.

And Ashley plays Mark’s old reaction to his United exit back to him, then sets the record straight on why he left for Inter Milan.
