Topics covered:

Paul Pogba

For the second week running Pogba features on the podcast. His return to the first team coupled with a second league appearance for the club suggest a new contract may now be imminent and any rumours of a departure are wide of the mark.

Title race

What’s going on at City? Are cracks starting to appear and do they really want Tevez back in their side?

Player futures

Does Anderson’s latest injury mean his career at United could be coming to an end? Will Berbatov move on this summer? (The pod was recorded on Tuesday, a scarily accurate prediction comes on the pod given Fergie’s comments on Wednesday). What does the future hold for Darren Fletcher – could he be offered a coaching role next year too?

What kind of midfielder should United look at this summer?

There’s no doubting it’s hard to identify the right central midfielder but after links to Eden Hazard, what kind of central player should the club be looking at?

Reserves and Academy

Matty James returns to the Reserves after a long lay-off as they go top of the Northern Reserve league.

The approach to Bilbao vs. the approach to Wolves

Should one game be prioritised over the other? To what extent can United get away with a ‘changed’ team against Bilbao?

Old Trafford singing section

There’s a proposal for the second tier of the Stretford End to be made into a singing section. Is this a good or a bad idea? Moreover, how does this sit in terms of modern day fan culture?

In the future, expect to hear other members of Stretford-End.com joining both Phil and Doron on the podcast as well as plenty of special guests

  1. In terms of midfield options in the future: I’d love to see Javi Martinez come into the side (I know, we’ve just played Bilbao and so it’s natural for us to be linked to opposition players who stand out, but still…). I could certainly see a future midfield three of Martinez, Pogba and Cleverley.
