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.
Leicester could be on to a proper hiding here.
Why did Porto sacrifice Andre Silva, isn't he their best attacker?
Leicester winning the league was just the flukiest thing ever.
4-4-2 with flat midfielders is a dead formation
Porto 0-0 Juventus (Telles red card)
Doesn't say many good things about your team.
Beat Leicester home and away and still finished 10 points behind them last season.
It was the way it seemed to take the league half a season or more to notice that Vardy liked to run into acres of space, and that Mahrez liked cutting in on his left foot.
Everyone's noticed now
Of course, we have only ourselves to blame.
This is Kasper against Sevilla.
Looks a wild challenge on first viewing. Then you look again, and the attacker has "cleverly" positioned himself, so that what was a 99/100 straight forward defender slides it out for a throw scenario, looks like a bad challenge
Leicester hoofing it every single time the get it. It's embarrassing that such a team is representing England in the PL. They're championship quality and Sevilla are exposing them.
Casillas saves Porto here.
It's a stupid challenge and well deserving of a second yellow
Lucky only he got a red, could have easily gave at least one more red for the push on the referee.
Alex Telles 2 yellow cards in 1 min - sent off
feck me! Juventus play shit, tbf.
Morgan has to lose 15 pounds, seems to get fatter every game
Higuain chance - Ilker with the save
Savage: "I'm sure Rio would know better than me, Peter."
Peter(?): "I'm absolutely certain of that."
Peter(?): "I'm absolutely certain of that."
Yeah the players does turn, but he was always going to be there first, so Telles was always going to end up going through him.
Lol triple red to me: straight first on Cuadrado, 3/4 of a red on Licht, third red for pushing the ref.
Leicester are dire.
Soares is better at holding the ball up and he's been on fire recently
I'm so glad that annoying tit Savage wasn't commentating on that City match yesterday.
Dybala hits the post!
Leicester just don't seem to have a clue.
Juventus are the playground bully in Serie A but always shit themselves when it comes to the Champions League.
Allegri is a bit overrated in Europe, tbf. You are 1 man up and you still play defensive?
How are they doing tonight?
Dybala hits the post
Dybala will score
0-0. They'll probably win but my point stands - last time they won it was 1996 I think.
Doesn't really need to change anything. They'll score eventually. Even if they don't, they'll win at home
So, Leicester have a throw-in in an advanced position next to the corner flag of the Sevilla half of the pitch.
Mahrez takes the throwing, Morgan comes short to receive the ball and instead of giving it back to Mahrez (or another creative player) he turns towards the box and tries to dribble two Sevilla players to put in a cross. He proceeds to get easily dispossessed and gives away a foul to stop the inevitable counter.
This is just shambolic, amateurish stuff. Like everyone does whatever the feck they want, with no plan.

Dybala's long distance shots are special. How many times has this guy hit the framework over the past few weeks?
Just watch the full highlights Sammsky.
Wow was that actual decent analysis on BT Sport? Thanks Martin
