48:43

Two and a half months since euphoria at Wembley, we head back under the arch. The same opponents again. A Manchester derby. Not quite a heavyweight rematch. The Community Shield rather than the FA Cup. But a game with meaning, a chance to lay down a marker, to use that old football cliché: to notch a statement victory. In this episode of the Manche…

Two games at Old Trafford, many very familiar signs, and more goals aplenty. Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United future remains uncertain at best. If this is his audition for the future, there are plenty unconvinced.

Well, positive goal difference was nice while it lasted!

Five consecutive wins for Manchester United and Erik ten Hag, whose desired identity for the Reds is becoming clearer by the game, whether you like it or not. Basketball-esque football. End-to-end.

Answering these questions from one of our Patrons, hosts Harry Robinson and Jack Tait essentially ponder over whether Erik ten Hag's ideal plans for this Manchester United team make it greater than the sum of its parts or reduce its strengths: Where does Mount fit in once he’s fit?

Manchester United… the most in-form team in the Premier League... apparently! It doesn’t feel like it, but, somehow, that’s four league wins in five games for Erik ten Hag’s Reds. It was hardly convincing; United failing to convert some good chances again and going through another game without a forward scoring. Victor Lindelof was the unlikely mat…
