Summary

#102. On this week's show, United's defeat to, but victory over, Ajax in the Europa League at Old Trafford on Thursday night. The Reds will now meet Athletic Bilbao in the round of 16 after the Spaniards' away goals win over Lokomotiv Moscow. We ask what Paul Pogba's omission from the squad means for the youngster's future. We preview United's visit to Norfolk this Sunday to play Norwich City for the first time since since a 2-0 loss in April 2005. Can Ferguson's side maintain its Premier League challenge against Paul Lambert's high flying Canaries? We ponder Ferguson - what kind of role should the legendary United manager have post retirement and what affect will he have on the new man, and who should that new man be? And, finally, we talk football finance after United published half year results.No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and all good podcast apps.

I think any time you start the game with the midfield of G-Sung Park and a two-thirds fit Tom cleverly,

you're probably not going to get the most together coherent performance out of the side?

0:53.0

No, that's right and much like in previous games in Europe this season and indeed in the

Carlin Cup as well chopped and changed there Ferguson and they didn't have the kind of fluent

1:04.0

response we might like. I mean you know I did okay in the first half I mean better

Eight games in a row that United has been subpar in Europe now.

1:38.9

I'm not giving a, I'm not giving us a very high score away at Iax even though we won it was pretty average performance for about 60 minutes.
