Is Joao Gomes the answer for Man Utd? Gallagher & Adeyemi linked, Zirkzee stays?
Scott Saunders discusses some of the players linked to Manchester United over the course of the last week, with speculation continuing over midfield options the club could sign to help Ruben Amorim plug the holes in his team.
There's a deeper look at Joao Gomes from Wolves and why he may be a great market opportunity, while there's also more talk on Conor Gallagher - who Scott discusses the benefits of on a short term loan if it's doable in January. There's also talk on the Karim Adeyemi links and Joshua Zirkzee likely staying at United in January.

One Year of Ruben Amorim: An Honest Assessment
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.

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.

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.
