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.
Take it you didn't watch the Liverpool match thenwhat a weird hill to die on.
It was only half a game he played.
And we did one heck of a lot of defending.
I'm arguing that he can't possibly be considered "key" to what we're doing, having played one half of football so far this season.
I was going to say. We'd all love him to be central to what we're doing and have a brilliant season, but it's mad to call him key to anything this early.
In French, it's a hard T sound so who knows.
Agreed. For those who struggle with this, think Antony and Cleopatra.
Pretty worrying tbh. He missed the first two games and didnt even start vs Pool. This is why we need Antony.
Eh? The "th" sound doesn't exist in French so...no.
I have rethort my position.
ThoSheds
I prether ThooSheds
I agree with ETH's approach.
I'm just exhausted with the Cotterill's of this world in all walks of life.
Didn't he push a young kid out of the way who was talking to ETH at the time, just so he could harass our future manager.
Fair enough, it depends on where you're from for how it is pronounced. I'm from the North East of England, and my first name is Anthony, which is why to me it is pronounced with the th sound and is a different name to Antony.
He can't hold the ball to save his life in PL. He hasn't changed at all as a player, he just changed the league.
He must have changed a bit to get a move to Barcelona!
When he was with us, all he had was the move inside and shoot, which came off about twice, when playing in the Europa.
Or taking free kicks. He joined us as an expert at them, yet caused most carnage to people sitting behind the goal.
That doesn't get you a move to Barcelona, even these days.
Yeh, butted in on a kid having his dad take a photo of him next to ETH in his car.
Ignoramus.
There are many players who are nothing special who end up at Barcelona. That's one of many reasons why they are shite these days.
He hardly stood out in what was worst Barca in 20 years.
This no mark doesn’t deserve an explanation. A simple “Feck off” would suffice.
Presser: Situation with Anthony.......
ten Hag: Martial?
I mean, what other Anthony would he be talking about, Erik?

When do the embargoed quotes come out?
compare this talk to ‘“my captain shall always play”
Erik has seen enough
Erik has seen enough
He could be referencing Elanga…Presser: Situation with Anthony.......

woooooosh
Great quote
Did'nt we all? sadly there is more chance of a scouser not having self-pity issues!
I keep hearing people say he made Maguire captain when in fact he simply chose not to change it. That quote fits the fact that he isn’t really EtH’s captain so he’s got to earn any minutes.
Its been for years now to be fair. Shame as he was looking decent again.
From those quotes:
1. We will no longer be going for and have not been going for FDJ since we signed Casemiro. He clearly wants them to occupy the same role.
2. Bruno is important to the team. He has always been, but I don't think people appreciate how much he brings as a presser as well. He's a dual threat in attack and I truly believe us controlling games more will lead to him getting back in the groove. Last year he was still one of the best chance creators in the team.
3. He plans to build up the squad and will not be content with us simply bringing through young players like we have been since Fergie came in. I don't think we will be following the theme of simply giving youngsters a chance under him. If any youngsters do break into the first team, it will be as a result of truly being at that level, as should be the case at any top team.
4. It will be interesting how he wants to use the centre forward role moving forward. What type of striker would he like to use? Will he truly require a specific type of striker or can he adapt accordingly in the position? Would he be adaptable to using a faster striker looking to get behind with his runs ( if so, I suspect that Rashford could see himself back in that role).
5. It's very clear that Varane is first choice. He, Casemiro and Bruno seem to be his key players. I suspect neither Rashford or Sancho are 100% starters in his planned xi.
