Oh he does. Draws you into listen and has a warmth and lightness of humour to him. That if you were on the other side of a table trying to do a deal with him. You’d want to please him.

Rio and Mr Gill is giving school vibes and it's hilarious 😂🤣

That joker Woodward and the Glazers stood on the shoulders of the 2 giants that are Gill and Fergie. They eeked every bit of juice that they could out of the success they built. I would take David Gill back in a heartbeat! ❤️

Fabulous Interview, I've Waited years to hear from Mr Gill, great to hear him sit and tell those stories we've all heard about, in the Lore of Man Utd History, could listen to him talk for hours, well Done Lads, and Rio what a Coup for the Five Channel

This series of interviews are class. What a great guest.

A proper leader with gravitas and commands respect. Very impressive with such an air of authority, steely reserve but a gentleman as well. Unique in many ways and would able to run any company and genuine CEO. Respect

Mr Gil we love you even more for your response to Joel 😅😂😂🤣

You can tell listening to him, that no matter what, his priority was about the team winning first! So great to see

These have been great gents, would love to see more from Mr Gill and club men. Hearing him speak just shows what the clubs been missing & im glad he’s positive about the future.

To this day I remember when I was in college and heard that David Gill secured did two deal in one day, signed Nani in Portugal and an agreement with Anderson in May 2007. Announced on sky news and confirmed on Manu website.

To be successful working in a sporting insitution, you have to be passionate about the sport, developing your expertise and ideally, even a fan/ supporter of that team too. Our results in the past decade is so-telling on how and what not to hire to run a football club 😮‍💨 I hope SJR, Sir Dave, Jean Claude Blanc and Omar will bring the necessary changes to get us back to the top again.

What a bloke 👏

Yeah, for dumb people

Absolutely incredible guy & leader - Mr Man Utd! Great insight & loved how he dismissed even talking about Arsenal haha!! 😂❤ Seriously incredible interview & particularly on the oversight of the entire club, vision, strategy & determination to deliver as well as the consideration of all levels of employees at the club...how to get everyone to buy into the philosophy in everything they do. Really impressive & what a coup for this channel.

Pretty sure the episodes have been uploaded in the wrong order lol

As accomplished as Sir Alex undoubtedly was - David Gill is a major factor in Man Utd's success. Very under-rated and greatly missed!

Contrast him saying how successful you are on the pitch drives everything else at the club compared to Ed Woodward who famously stated that winning trophies will have no correlation to how much revenue United turn over. And that for me has been the biggest problem for the last decade.

David Gill is a class act. That is what success looks like. Dependable and shrewd.

Favourite episode yet. Love what you guys are doing. More of this type of content would be brilliant. Not a dig, but it is so nice to have a calm, relaxed conversation. Sometimes the sound is a bit chaotic when Joel gets a bit excited or if he's copping pelters when Arsenal have inevitably dropped off again.

Mr Gill's response to Joel... Gold!

Best interview so far. Extremely engaging character. Peak united!

Great interview 🙌 Mr Gill is a legend Thank you guys for this🎉

I havnt started this and I want to say thank you.

Mr LEGEND Gill❤

Wish that could've been 2 hours long, great insight!!

This was fascinating

The interview shows how the problems started. We were uniquely run, and it worked with 2 geniuses together steering the ship. When those two left, the model didn't seem set up to work in the modern world without them, and then poor appointments and a model based upon off the field success more than what happens off it, highlighted the flaws in the model, which was perfect if run by certain people I.e. Sir Alex and David Gill because they were special.

Isn’t this Part 1?

Great interview!!

Ah man I was hoping you was going to ask questions about the way the club has been run since he left

Would have LOVED to hear what happened with Wayne around the time he wanted to move, on the back of the topic of players being interested in who's coming in etc the way Rio was.

Good Part 2 Lads 👍

Brilliant interview. Really enjoying these. What abt if you David Dein on here? That would be another interesting one.

Great interview and insight. The only thing I'd critique is the decision to split this in to 2 parts.

All about winning with him. This is what we need.

This guy was unbelievable

Dope interview gents, but that pause and stutter when asked a question about the Glazers says alot.

this guy is a top bloke 😂

After Mr. Gill, now we will need Sir Alex here in this channel, I don't mind if it's 3 hours long

Excellent Content.Pity this guy won’t be involved with Ratcliffe/Brailsford.

Joe-L getting bullied! 🤣 love to see it. Woah Mr. Gill was and still is that guy. Real knowledge!!

Joel’s glass got hardly any water left he was nervous af 😂😂😂

Mr. Gill dont give a toss about arsenal

The best CEOs dont have huge ego..... You can tell that David Gill is an objective man..... Fair, calm, balanced..... Perfect CEO for fiery, egotistal, erratic Football Managers..... I can see why he was a perfect man to work with Fergie.... Woodward is a bit more of an ego....

it`s not abt ego- it`s abt knowledge and intention- that said, the nonchalance, when he described players walking into talks with advisors and lawyers and whatnot tells you everything that`s wrong with football...it`s become the epitome of panem et circenses....totally sordid at this point in time.

"Arsenal.... I don't care....". Thank you Mr Gill ha ha ha ha!!!

Hope we can be fraction as well run as when he was at the club

Oi oi Rio, what are these private investments 😂

Loved the Arsenal .... Naaa xD

He's still talking about Roy....says it all really

The only thing I didn't like about this interview was that it was TOO SHORT. Good work tho guys!

Get Ed Woodward next. Would love to hear what he says.

The man is the legend . Thank you guys, fantastic stuff

It's a personal business

He calls him “Alex” 😊

Imagine replacing this man with Edd Woodward ffs …. 😢
