| 0:04.0 | Hello and welcome to the TIFO Football Podcast. I'm John McKenzie and I'm joined as ever by my good pal |
| 0:13.6 | and producer Mike Zimmer and Mike how are you? I am doing good as ever. How are you John? I'm doing |
| 0:19.1 | well. I'm still enjoying the fact that in |
| 0:21.1 | recording this episode, you found out that one of the guests grew up very close to your |
| 0:25.9 | small town in America. So we spent a good chunk of time at the beginning of the recording |
| 0:30.9 | talking about that, but we managed to move on quickly. But yeah, a revelation for you, I think. |
| 0:36.3 | Yeah, we were debating whether or not |
| 0:38.6 | just to do the podcast on, um, on New Jersey geography, but we opted to, um, to talk Manchester |
| 0:45.5 | United and had a case in Aaron on again for the second time this season. The first time was |

| 1:18.2 | Yeah, and I think it's a really, really interesting conversation about how you analyze how a team |
| 1:23.4 | is doing one season and sort of project forward into the next season. |
| 1:27.1 | And I was someone |
| 1:27.6 | who squarely takes that blame as well because I thought Manchester United would have done better |
| 1:31.2 | than they did this season. So I think it's a really interesting conversation. And as always, |
| 1:36.3 | the best thing for us to do is to just jump straight into it. So the next thing you will hear is |
| 1:40.1 | me talking to Case and Aaron from Devils in the Detail podcast. |
