The march with Erik’s army continues. Manchester United are on a roll. An impressive performance at the Nou Camp on Thursday evening is followed up with a dominant, purring second-half spell that saw the Reds roll over Leicester City for a 3-0 win. Two goals from Marcus Rashford and another from Jadon Sancho. That’ll do.
On the Manchester United Weekly Podcast today, Harry Robinson and Jack Tait review Sunday afternoon’s win, talking Rashford, Weghorst’s contrasting performance and plenty more. We’ll consider how United are still in with a chance in four competitions. And of course, we’ll preview Thursday night. Barcelona. Old Trafford.
We’ll also talk briefly, and only briefly because there is a long way still to go, about the club’s ownership.
In the middle of the show, you’ll get your extensive Academy and loans update.
