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.
oh for sure, especially since some are losing it already.
It's laughable to see people losing their shit for a line up in a friendly game.
Even when he won against Man City his first reaction was "it was good training session".
You'd think so. He played a few games there last season, and this is only pre season after all.
EDIT:
Nevermind.
433 or 4231.
Either way, I like the look of the team, especially the front three/four.
If we lose : we are shit
If we win : it's just a friendly
If we win : it's just a friendly
These types of games are of no interest to me at all.
Todays football is all about money which is very sad, City v. United, Chelsea v. Arsenal, Liverpool v. Leicester, Barcelona v. Juventus pre season ???????????????????????
Lukaku 75m, Morata (not even a first team regular) 75m, Pogba 93m, Coutinho 80m absolutely crazy.
All this love in stuff with the opposition before the game.
Cheating overated, overpaid primma donnas with huge egos.
I used to enjoy English football a lot, now along with Spanish football it is truly awful.
I am a (proud) Aberdeen supporter and although well aware the standard of Scottish football is not great it is still pretty much like the game I grew up with and love.
Aberdeen v. Celtic, Rangers v. Celtic pre season.......... hopefully not in my lifetime.

there seems to me to be a bit of needle developing between United and Madrid
plenty of narrative with Ronaldo/De Gea/Mourinho
maybe I'm imagining it

Real Madrid Team too please
We're going with total pace
expecting us to sit back and counter attacks.I remember when Dortmund smashed us 4-1 last year, this place wasn't a pretty sight.
Let's keep it respectable yeah
Let's keep it respectable yeah
For C… sake, the guy says in interviews the number of minutes each player will have, the combinations of centerbacks, etc., and you think he rolls the dice for lineups?
No but I think he does it for minutes as you just said . Not to win the match. That's literally been my point the whole time.Wrong, just the keepers and defense. The others should be the opposite of Man City's game.
Why David may is part of the anchor team is beyond me, his talking is so lethargic and dismal.
Just saw this is on live TV here.
And where do Tuanzebe and Mitchell play?
He did, though.

Real will obviously control the ball and the game, but their attack isnt the greatest. Benzema isnt in form, Vazquez is Vazquez and Bale is a danger. Kroos, Isco and Modric will give us a lesson, but i dont think we will get smashed.
If Lukaku is participating in this challenge (rooftop control), would be a good watch
Out of interest, is this the first time Mourinho's facing Real Madrid since he left them?
It would be interesting to see a variation of this during the game with Rashford on the right, Martial as center-forward, and Lingard on the left.
And you believed him?
I think so.
any rivers chaps?
or do i habe to pay MUTV?

I think he did face them as a Chelsea manager in a pre season friendly
Yeah had to look it up myself. He never faced them during his second stint at Chelsea.
No, he played with Chelsea, in the preseason too
We aren't allowed to post streaming links here.
He did in pre season of his first season back at Chelsea
Ah you're right! His first year at Chelsea 2.0. Lost 3-1 and all.
Lukaku cumming across really well again.
He played them with Chelsea in pre-season.
What was this on?Pogba driving on purpose around OT with Lukaku.
Also, why are people surprised at Real fielding a strong team? It's their first pre season game so it was inevitable.
Agree, the front three interchanging their positions, messing up Real's defence, love to see that.
Anybody think the heat is getting to Paddy a bit. He seems really tired. I noticed it the other day.
Real not messing around anyway. Reallly strong team. Interesting to see how pretty much our 2nd team with Bailly, Rashford, and maybe Darmian and Lingard/Martial handle this
Why would anybody? They are meaningless. For fitness and commercial reasons only.
Paddy makes me laugh. Playing with a paper while commentary is going on.
Strong team, alright, but their fitness shouldn't be closer to ours, and that might show, like against City.
What age is he, 78? Feck I can barely take UK heat, never mind 40c
