Mbeumo’s impact at Man United
Manchester United will face Brentford in West London on Saturday lunchtime looking to pick up back-to-back Premier League wins for the first time under Ruben Amorim. Mark Critchley joins Ian, Andy and Carl in the studio to preview the game, but are we confident of three points?
The man most likely to provide cutting edge in attack is actually one of a host of key/leadership figures who left Brentford in the Summer. Bryan Mbeumo, however you pronounce his name, has started life well at United and as The Athletic's Jay Harris will attest, he is a straight-forward, reliable performer.
We also catch up with some correspondence covering a broad range of questions including sliding doors moments, Evans-sized chickens, and exciting U21s prospects.
Hosts: Ian Irving, Andy Mitten, Carl Anka, Mark Critchley
