Hosts Harry Robinson and Jack Tait come together to watch Manchester United’s final friendly of pre-season, against Liverpool. While watching the game, they go through the key talking points of a busy summer, including:
Erik ten Hag’s contract extension
A new coaching set-up, including the much-loved Ruud van Nistelrooy
The signings of Joshua Zirkzee and Leny Yoro
The implementation of a new football structure above Ten Hag with Dan Ashworth and Jason Wilcox joining Omar Berrada
Stand-out performances in pre-season from Amad
What next for Toby Collyer and Harry Amass
In Part Two of the episode, recorded in the second half, the two Reds talk:
More transfers, including what Leny Yoro was like on his first day at the club, with insight from Harry, who interviewed him for United’s club media
How Zirkzee could fit into the team with Hojlund and Bruno, and why his signing reminds us of Mason Mount last summer
Speculation around a major Academy transfer, and another awaiting confirmation
What this 3-0 defeat to Liverpool means, if anything
