BBC might be regretting that studio choice with all the rain coming down.

- Thread starter K2K

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.
Very offensive lineup from Poland, bit worried.
@Santos J @RobinLFC Glik is actually with the squad, he's been racing time to get back into the game, the most probably scenario is him getting back against Japan (third match) although it's possibly he'll cure himself for Colombia. Was supposed to be out but he's done some massive, tremendous job getting back.

Someone on here had told me that Glik was out of the WC with a dislocated shoulder but he hasn't been replaced in the squad so I guess they expect him to be fit for some part of the tournament. And is Balde not a regular starter for Senegal or has he just been dropped for this game?
Oh God!
I'm not going to subject myself to Fox sports this World Cup even though I get the channel. ITV have Jon Champion on comms. A ledge. The Beeb's been good as well, apart from Lawrenson who likes whinging about everything under the sun.
He started their first friendly when Mané was still recovering from the CL final, but has been a sub ever since.
Evra’s bow tie.
Wow. Well they must really rate that Sarr kid then. Never seen him play. Will be exciting to see how he does.
As much as I like Colombia (god its women
), I’m overjoyed for the Japanese. Great result for them and this group just got blown wide open.

Come on Poland. Not very optimistic with this ultra offensive line up, but hope Nawałka proves me wrong. Make it happen boys
Mané's hairline is still higher than Snoop Dogg.
Poland seem to have a decent enough team by their standards over the past decade or so, country should be hyped.
Keita Balde not starting?
Third time lucky for Champion and McCoist? Might they get a decent game to commentate on...
Why are the star players always the captains?
Didn't know Mane was from Senegal.
Poland always have a huge amount of fans at matches.
Come on Poland! Earn me some dolla bill
Is there anyone known playing for Poland?
Best players, hard trainers, lead by example, other players look up to them etc.
Their turn to invade Russia, the Poles that is.
Lewandowski?
Lewa, Blazyzyzy...(sp?), Pzuzuzeck (sp?), Krychowiak, Chesney. Yep.
Fair point
Edit.
Lewandowski.
Oh yeah, I meant apart from him.
That SChesney goalie guy mentioned above. Feck, Polish names are tough.
Was going to say Kamil Glik too but he's still recovering from a shoulder injury. He plays for Monaco and is an underrated player imo.
Polish Scrabble is just consonants thrown randomly onto the table.
That’s a surprisingly strong line up for Senegal, on paper. Stronger than Poland, to be honest.
Cionek shitting it.
Come on Senegal
Could do with one African team winning a game

So stupid from Krychowiak to pull his shirt, he would have the ball with his tackling.
Clear yellow for (sp.)
Mane needs to use his pace and play making in equal measure today.
Bants.
That free kick.
