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.
Guys take a look at Tete, he is beastly defensively.
What a game! Absolutely exciting.
Ajax will be a very dangerous opponent if we meet them in the final. They've got a young, skillful and fearless front line.
Seems Jose was right about Traore. The kid has a bright future.

Should have won 7-2 and entered the final.
Germany 7-1 Brazil
God Lyon have been so poor
The FF is a strange and unusual place lately.
I'll be shocked if we don't beat either of those, to be honest.
Gulp! I remember his dad for Barca but that's about it. Still before he was born I think.
Scored 4 goals, but if I was the Ajax manager I'd be fuming at the chances they've missed. 
Should be double figures.
Should be double figures.If it is such an easy competition why are Spurs and Roma out (both 2nd in their respective leagues)?
Wow! Ajax are creating chances at every attack. Speechless.
United isnt that good that a win should be guaranteed.
Our blend of experience and youth will wear them down. Very exciting to watch them though
If we get past Celta we better have our fecking defence on top song against this rabid Ajax attack.
That should be United in the Champions League next year via the Europa League
Because they have a piss poor European record and stayed true to form?
17 year old outmuscling Lacazette xd!
Peter Bosz hiding a hickey.
Traorè just needs to learn to be less greedy, then he can become a great player.
Lyon defending is like when children play football and everyone runs for the ball with no sense of positioning or a care of defending.
Now a 17 year old bullying the Lyon player.

Either Ajax are on drugs or Lyon have forgotten how to defend. Could be about 6-1 to Ajax.
Obviously nothing is guaranteed but if we get to the final, I'd expect Jose to navigate the game without too many snags. Nothing against those teams but it will be our last game of the season so both teams will be well rested and with the squad and the manager we have I'll be gutted if we didn't win. I fully expect us to win it, if we get to the final.
Kluiverttt man.
I just realized that Valbuena is Veigar Páll Gunnarssons doppelgänger.
If we made the final you thinking we'll blow Ajax away? Serious question, I don't watch Ajax and I don't know what they are capable of, but know they are beating Lyon tonight with a nice score.
All Ajax players deserve 10/10 today. They have been outstanding.
Mwah our record vs Dutch teams isnt too bright, and this is a once in a life time chance for the Ajax players as well, they will be up for it too. I think 60-40 United vs Ajax would it come so far.
Incredibly entertaining game.
Of course it's not guaranteed but I'll still be shocked if we don't beat these kids.
That's what I've got. Leaving massive gaps everywhere. Mind you I've noticed Ajax doing a couple of times, namely, Fekir one on one.
One goal for Lyon and it's game on.
Nothing to do with the teams actually being good? Sounds like arrogance. I will certainly be happy winning this tournament - one we couldn't win with a very good team last time we competed.
Mwah, think you are overrating United or underrating United severely.
Yeah i dont understand why people would be optimistic against ajax but nervous against lyon when ajax are hammering lyon and would be incredibly motivated in a european final with all their youngsters.
Ajax deserved at least one pen today.
Beat Celta first, Ajax already did this season.
We can take these guys out IF we mean business. No fooling around. No missing sitters. No sloppy play. No relaxing after being one goal ahead. No waiting till the second half before pressing hard. No fergie time stuff. Anything short of this and the glory hunting boys of Ajax and even Lyon, will use us as a stepping stone to stardom. This, of course, assumes we make it past Celta de Vigo.
