Want to see the young lads out
Manchester United vs Perth Glory (Sat 13th July, 12:00 UK time)
- Thread starter Samid

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.
I think we will only see 22 players out of the 28 for this game, unless sudden injuries force more.
1st half: the usual and seniors minus Lukaku(?).
2nd half: mostly the two new players and the kids.
Let's see.
EDIT:
Forgot about Tuanzebe. Damnit. We're going with 6 CBs this season?

We won't lose we will win by 3 or 4 goals.
Anyone have a clue how to watch this in the states?
Are perth glory in the middle of their season? How good are they
Any United fans going to the game in Perth today?
A-League runs from October to May if I am not mistaken..
They are the defending champions of A- League..
Nah the seasons over and won't start again til October I believe. They're pretty good as far as A-league teams go, they finished 1st on the ladder but lost the grand final to Sydney fc on penalties.
I expect to see it on the MUTV Apple TV app. Should also work on the iPhone app. I'd expect it to be available on Android too. Don't know about TV options though.
Looking forwrd to this.. as shit as they were towards the end of last season, I have missed watching United play.
Yes, very likely it will be available on demand and on demand videos on MUTV app are there usually for 120 days.
Even after our website update it still manages to be terrible.
When I select the subscription i want all it does is highlight it in yellow, it doesn't proceed and doesn't give you the option to either
Edit - Had to do it on mobile as the website on PC wouldn't work

Read somewhere that Perth might be trotting out a couple of 15-year olds (one of them the coach's son) due to a player shortage.

I wonder what Ole's plan would be - play the fittest players first or the ones who aren't so much well prepared.
Looking forward to this 
Pre-season matches aren’t part of the match day section, so they’re just normal threads.
I've got mutv on my sky at home, but trying to get it to link to my phone is a nightmare
We've been playing pre-season friendlies overseas for a lot longer than that. The commercial side is more pronounced now, but let's not kid ourselves that in the good old days we played Bury behind closed doors at the Cliff because we didn't do PR... e.g. 1982, Vancouver Whitecaps and Seattle Sounders in Canada. I think we toured in Germany and Scandinavia quite a bit in the 70's although this is before my time.

Just hope we don’t pick up any injuries. Some reports say the pitch is not good.
Enjoy it while it lasts
Cheer up!
I'll try but it's tough
Match day. Woooooooo...
It is what it is - there's not much we can do about it x
I am trying to get myself up for this game. Normally I watch every moment of the pre-season training/ press conferences etc but I just realised that I haven't actually had MUTV on for at least 3 months.
If we see a line up that includes Young, Smalling and Jones then that might be it for me, Ole desperately needs to inject something fresh and dynamic into this side.

I’m waiting for the day again where we can just go out and put some minnow team to the sword and win by 3-4 goals like when we went to the Far East and destroyed some random Chinese teams. It’s going to be some bullshit boring 1-0 win where it’s deflected in or some scruffy two yard tap in.
The United staff member rushed to hospital was coach Mark Dempsey. Dehydration. His wife saying he's doing fine.
I've no idea what team we'll play. I'm hoping there will be some kind of statement of intent in there and we'll see next season's team rather than one that should have been phased out in 17/18.
I'm also hoping that we don't have to listen to Ole make the, "they were all knackered after a 6 hour training session yesterday," speech.
I'd like to see Rashford looking 100% fit and sharp and some signs that we've got a left side combination (at least) that look like a serious attacking threat.
U-ni-ted.

Good to hear that he's on the mend. Fingers crossed for him now.
Get a good look at AWB and Hames today.
Unless the youngsters are playing not going to bother. Bit of a nothing game so may as well start with the Leeds game.
I always find these early pre-season games pointless. We'll field a number of players who'll be nowhere near the match day squad for our opening day PL defeat.
Our whole squad bar Fred and Darmian (Sanchez too but eh, who cares) are on this tour. Main players should be playing this game, surely.
I'm not disputing that they are all on tour, but the manager will be all about giving the fringe players game time early on, because as we get to the end of pre-season it'll be all about the main players.
Good to hear.
Just purchased my obligatory July/Aug MUTV subscription!
Excited to watch us again. Hopefully we get to see James and AWB linking up on that right flank.
I get a call from Sky every July now asking if I want to set it up againJust purchased my obligatory July/Aug MUTV subscription!
