The Promised Land | A Manchester United Podcast

Pep Guardiola leaving Manchester City would be one of the biggest shifts in the Premier League landscape for years — and it could give Manchester United a real opening. This episode looks at why it could make the title race more open, and why United now have a huge chance to benefit if the club gets this summer right.

There is also discussion on why City would still be a major force without Guardiola, why Manchester United cannot assume anything will be handed to them, and how this could affect the wider transfer market — including whether United would have a better chance of landing players such as Elliot Anderson.

Topics include:

what Pep leaving Man City could mean for Man Utd

why the Premier League could become more open

why United must capitalise now

how much this changes expectations

whether it improves United’s chances in the transfer market

Elliot Anderson and the wider summer picture

Scott Saunders shares his post match thought on the chaos that was Man Utd's 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford on Sunday.

Bryan Mbeumo's handball is going to steal the headlines so the media have something to talk about this week, but the day was all about Bruno Fernandes - who equalled the all time record in a single season for assists in the Premier League - and Casemiro, who played his final game at Old Trafford.

Scott reflects on the game, what it said about where United are at, the big decision and why United are starting to feel more like United again.
