Podcast: United’s controversial penalty call & foundations for a brilliant midfield – Strettycast

Dale and Mike go through Thursday night’s 3-0 win over Aston Villa.

The game saw a controversial penalty awarded in Manchester United’s favour when Bruno Fernandes was brought down on the edge of the box before converting his spot kick. Mike has a look at the rule book and says Jon Moss made the right decision despite what the Premier League will have you think.

Jack Grealish and Tyrone Mings had poor auditions as two players linked with moves to Manchester United. We agree that Solskjaer will be put off making a move for either player and think more fans are coming to terms with Grealish not being a necessity this summer. He wouldn’t start in the current line-up!

Mings, on the other hand, had a dig swung at him by Roy Keane for his defending in the lead up to Mason Greenwood’s goal. What a player!

One of the points made on the podcast about United’s midfield is that it’s looking better than the midfield three that won the Premier League title this season. Do you agree?

Next up for the Reds is Southampton. Mike gives you reasons to be wary ahead of that game on Monday night (8pm). That means our next podcast will be recorded and uploaded on Tuesday.

Thanks for listening and we appreciate your feedback!
