Manchester United Show 2




Beyond The Pitch show

Summary: Phil is joined by Doron Salomon of Stretford-End.com for a second episode to take a look at many of the Manchester United storylines both in the front pages and beyond, including a look at an evolving situation with Paul Pogba, a shocking result at the hands of Athletic Bilbao and suddenly some surprising fissures starting to appear at crosstown rival Manchester City where a Carlos Tevez saga takes yet another turn in the wake of a rumoured bust-up between Yaya Toure and Mario Balotelli. Was there a change that came into view with the Tottenham result and will this force Sir Alex to consider priorities differently with the return leg of the Europa League. The guys take a look at all of these factors, some emerging players and how some key players will fare in the coming months and what we may see in the summer as issues with Anderson and Dimitar Berbatov appears to be on the way toward resolution and questions on Darren Fletcher persist. Then there is time to examine the issues in the central midfield and how Ferguson may continue to chop and change here like he has done in the defense now that options exist as players are becoming healthy again. After some discussion into the youth and reserves coming through the United system, Phil and Doron also look at the match coming up against Wolves and do take some time to examine a proposed singing section at Old Trafford which may have some unintended consequences.
