Manchester United look to be closing in on appointing Mauricio Pochettino as their new head coach - replacing Michael Carrick who looks set to be sacked following a meeting of club executives in Monaco. John Bennett is joined by Spanish football expert Guillem Balague and BBC chief football news reporter Simon Stone to discuss the events of the week including the Manchester United board meeting in Monaco, where it is reported Jason Wilcox and Omar Berrada are to recommend Michael Carrick is replaced as head coach to Jim Ratcliffe.
We hear from England captain Harry Kane who has been speaking from the national team camp on his experience working with Pochettino. And former Tottenham Hotspur defender Toby Alderweireld joins the podcast to discuss what life was like under Pochettino, the expectations he sets, and what the United players should expect.
Mauricio Pochettino is currently the head coach of the US Men's National Team, and only signed a contract extension in August, having guided the United States to the last 16 of the World Cup. So how has the news been received in the USA? Luis Miguel Echegaray is a Fox Sports writer and analyst and joins John Bennett to give the view from across the pond.
John is also joined by BBC Sport's football tactics correspondent Umir Irfan to discuss how a Pochettino Manchester United could look.
