THE ATHLETIC
About this episode

The Athletic's Carl Anka, Laurie Whitwell & Andy Mitten discuss whether the rise of Mason Greenwood means United still need the likes of Jadon Sancho. Meanwhile the lads discuss reports that Dortmund have set a deadline for United to complete the transfer of Sancho.

Laurie shares the stats that put Greenwood at the top in the Premier League.

Laurie and Andy reveal the key defensive position in which Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is keen to strengthen and the Uruguayan winger linked with  a move to Old Trafford.

And the lads choose a player from the lower end of the table that they think could do the business at Old Trafford.
