Fixtures, striker search, and ticket pri...

THE ATHLETIC
About this episode

It's a midsummer special on the week of the longest day of the year (if only there was a proper name for it...)

It's also pretty much square in the middle of Manchester United's summer break, with a month gone since last season and a month until the first pre-season fixture. The Premier League fixtures were announced this morning and we react to a tough start!

Andy has been speaking to Omar Berrada, at great length, about his plans for the club and we consider his performance, both in the interview and in the job.

Finally, sort of, there's a glimpse into Carl's breakdown of Ruben Amorim's ideal striker and whether he can buy one who matches up in reality. The "sort of" is because we have an extra bit with Ian and Andy reacting to the news that ticket prices for individual fixtures will go up next season.
