After a victory against Wolves that was underwhelming to say the least, we attempt to dissect the madness and whether you should be worried. We then discussed the departures of Fred and possibly Harry Maguire, and the names linked to replace them.

In this episode we discuss all things Rasmus Højlund, from his strengths and weaknesses to his potential ceiling, and why he his fate could make or break this United side's long term outlook. Also: our predictions for this season's Premier League, both in Manchester and around England...

A variety of topics to cover this week as we return from a number of episodes with special guests. We first discussed preseason to date and some emerging faces in the side. Then, we dove into the complex nature of exploiting market inefficiencies in the modern transfer market, and what it means for teams to be possession-based versus transition-based in their approach, if anything at all.

Two great new signings, two great guests to give us the best info. We first welcomed Orlando Valman (@0rland1nh0) to give us the lowdown on Mason Mount's career to date, after which Marc Geschwind (@MarcGeschwind) spoke to us about Andre Onana's rise to fame at Ajax. You can find Orlando over at Scouted Football (@ScoutedFtbl) or The Chelsea Spot (@TheChelseaSpot) and Marc at EiF Soccer (@EiFSoccer).

To cap off the season, we welcomed our friend Carl Anka (@Ankaman616) to talk through tactical trends, our players/moments of the season, and how Ten Hag’s ideas have played out on the pitch. We also welcomed Stephen Ganavas (@StephenScouted) from Scouted Football (@ScoutedFtbl) to chat briefly about their incredibly exciting new project in the football content space.

Summer of 2023 marks ten years since the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson.
