Have INEOS Fixed Man Utd’s Transfer Strategy?
Scott Saunders takes the opportunity during the international break to reflect on Man Utd's transfer market policy on the incomings front - and asks the question of if the club is getting better at recruitment following two summers of signings under a new transfer team.
Scott looks at the signings of the summer in 2025 and how they've adapted, and looks at how the arrivals in 2024 are faring today. Is there reason for encouragement or are United still picking out duds?

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.
