In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
Ndidi he will. Now that you mention it, the whole Leicester squad could be fragments of a (gritty) novel.
"Ulloa! Albrighton, mate? Chilwell?”
"Uh, not really. Schmeichel Benalouane Vardy whole bloody Morgan, It’s getting tedious, honestly".
"Wasilewski?"
"Amartey, come on. Hamer, Kapustka".
"Hernández Zieler?"
"Not a dicky bird".
"Oh, well. Musa Slimani King James?"
"Yeah. Ranieri Gray. ’Till all hours. Simpson Huth any Mahrez?"
"Fuchs sake. Tough it out, man. Drinkwater. Schlupp it up.
You will soon be on the Mendy".
"Ndidi. Good idea".
"Okazaki. Chat later"
"Chat later."
I'll get my coat.
Don't know what I was thinking typing thatThanks, I was trying to work it out.
Unfortunately for Ranieri he just isnt good enough, alot of failed spells with Greece/Roma/Monaco and Inter, infact id go as far and say he's been pretty pants since he left Chelsea, if he you look at his avg win % he's about the norm in his career which suggests last season was more of a fluke than anything and he was riding the wave coupled with all the other teams around them falling apart, he'll be sacked (should leave before that happens) and he'll end up in another club where he'll flop and leave after a couple of seasons, can't but help to like the guy but as a Manager, not so much.
Henry was saying he had to touch him to see if he was real. I mean, come on...WTF!
, sadly Schlupp got sold to PalaceLeicester are not even trying. They clearly want Ranieri sacked.
Getting Coach of the Century has done for him. It's a curse.
Even Gray has gone to pot and he has been one of their brighter lights.
Drat and triple drat.
Let's say, for the sake of argument, that Leicester do go down this season and, moreover, they don't bounce back up again straight away (becoming a mid-table Championship team). Let's also posit that, had they stuck with Pearson, they wouldn't have won the PL last season, but would have consolidated their status as a lower mid-table PL team. At what point (if any) is the decision to go for Ranieri and get the miracle of 2015/16 no longer 'worth it'? Financially, of course, mid-table in the PL over many seasons is far better than winning it once and then getting the drop, but what price can you put on their historic achievement last season?
Its more the fact that this outstanding, amazing run, has got a few thinking the title is a possibility. It just isnt
If I were a Leicester fan, I would take being champions and then relegated over being a mid premier league team.
To be fair we should be in the title race if this unbeaten run didn't have so many goddamn draws in it. I would say this is a good run, not amazing, and we would do well to keep it going for sure.
Olsson is a proper LB.
Epic title defence from Leicester here
I suspect the owners have not kept promises they made to players after they won the title last season.
2-0 FT. Well done Clement. Roll on Chelsea now
To be fair nobody has done very well defending their titles for the last four years, starting with us and Moyes, then City, Mourinho flopped and now Leicester.
This Clement seems a decent character, nothing stupid about him yet he's organised team that was close to a shambles under Bradley.
True and a bit strange. But if Leicester do get relegated it's really taking it to a new level...
That's alright. Hope you had a good time.
C'mon Jack! Do us a favour today!
Wonder how City are going to line up

Pregame comment from Pep via the Guardian
The fix is in, he already knows how much stoppage time will be added!

How do we see this game going then? Comfortable City win or another Bournemouth upset?
City to win by two goal margin.
There has been a lot made of Jose's supposed treatment of players when they have not been making as many starts as some think they should. How does everyone feel about Aguero's exile to the bench?
Coul dbe a big City win this. Bournemouth has conceded more goals this season than the bottom two clubs and only Hull have a (slightly) worse defensive record than them.
As Neville just said, if Pellegrini had done the same he would have been butchered for it. Pep is simply afforded that sort of decision making due to his status.
I dont understand how press arent writing too much about aguero being dumped to the bench. In our case mkhi and martial on bench meant we were in crisis. Juan mata was already sold according to papers when we signed mou. Maybe its because they havent been bad, maybe we will see how the team responds when they lose again. Maybe aguero waits for the right time to kick pep in the balls.
I think it makes sense. Aguero is injury prone and getting on a bit. Jesus is the future for them.
Pep better hope he doesn't hit a dip in form or else he'll be crucified.
(I'm sorry)
Yeah I think it'll be comfortable for them. Ryan Fraser might cause them problems though.
Since the change they've been winning games. Its if they go on a bad run that Pep'll get grief for it.
