They seem to only understand fan sentiment based on what they see on Twitter. And spend a lot of time being angry at the Twitter fans. Used to be very insightful, and although Pauline at times has interesting insights, and some meaningful tactical breakdowns, theyve become smug and snide and unpleasant to listen to.

Used to be very insightful, and although still has interesting insights, and some meaningful tactical breakdowns, theyve become smug and snide and unpleasant to listen to. We’re all suffering through man utd’s mediocrity, we all want to understand the good and bad, but we don’t need the snark. Hopefully they return to the analysis. They also seem to believe that all United fans are represented by those that comment on their Twitter profiles. Very few are.
But they know their football, and aren’t after a locked in super league featuring Manchester Devils and Manchester Citizens playing Madrid Torros or Milano Sausages
They put out stories about Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogbas ‘injury’ before Bournemouth game even though I literally broke down for them that it was a parody story. No tweet back, nothing- just got to watch them show they will lie to get clicks. Poor reporting, not worthy of the title of ‘journalists’ or ‘analysts’ or ‘insiders’
Listening to this podcast talk about the transfer market is totally disappointing as they seem to base what they say purely on conjecture rather than facts. In contrast with some well researched transfer market podcasts who get their information directly from football sources most of the things I heard in this podcast were completely incorrect.
One example of what I’m talking about: said they did not believe for one second that there was an offer from Barcelona for Bruno Fernandes despite that ... more
