Scott Saunders assesses Ruben Amorim's first year in charge of Manchester United, one year on to the day that he arrived at the club.
There's analysis so far on the system, its weaknesses, the progress made in a year, the poor form last season and why he's still in a job...despite the low win percentage and 15th placed finish, and what could and should come next.
Even while patience is required, there's acknowledgement too of the ongoing problems the club face in a balanced assessment of the progress so far.

Could Man Utd's season flip after the break? November state of play w/ Adam Joseph
Adam Joseph rejoins the TPL podcast for a breakdown with Scott Saunders on Man Utd's improvement over the last month, the wild ride that is following United game to game, and looking ahead to a run after the international break which is a huge opportunity for Ruben Amorim's side.
The guys talk about social media warping the reality of United's situation, player criticism which doesn't help anyone, and how a few wins has bought the manager more patience. Also thrown in for some good measure are what the guys would like to see in the January transfer window!

A true test of PROGRESS - Spurs vs Man Utd preview & predicted XI
Scott Saunders looks ahead to Tottenham vs Manchester United on Saturday afternoon - Spurs being a team United haven't beaten since October 2022.
After the disgrace of the performance in the Europa League final earlier this year, United need to show that they've not only moved on from that but grown from it against an opponent that is having a lot of trouble playing at home at the moment.
Scott runs through his predicted XI, how United go about winning the game, what winning it would mean for the wider significance of the squad and tons more.

About The Promised Land | A Manchester United Podcast
The Promised Land is a Manchester United podcast brought to you by football journalist, editor and presenter Scott Saunders talking all the latest on the biggest club in England. Taking an approach of "never too high, never too low", a phrase coined by TPL's former co-host, the late Rob Blanchette, the show aims to bring an element of calmness and measured analysis on what we see on and off the pitch in relation to United. Scott has the unique insight of being a fan of the club for 30 years and working in the football media scene for over a decade, and will often endeavour to bring an alternative eye and critical thinking to what's being reported. There's no shouting or over the top reactions, but instead level-headed conversation on all the latest topics for every United fan to enjoy.
