Summary

#197. In the first pod of the new season Ed & Paul look back on United's pre-season tour of the United States, talk transfers and preview the campaign ahead. United enjoyed one of the most successful pre-season tours in memory, both in terms of results and in the context of last year's failure. But can Louis van Gaal translate a positive start into results when competitive football starts this weekend against Swansea? The pod covers the summer transfer scene - Ander Herrera and Luke Shaw have arrived at Old Trafford, while half-a-dozen players have left. What incomings and outgoings are still to come? There's a preview of the coming season, together with predictions for the campaign ahead. Spoiler alert: neither Ed nor Paul believe United will win the Premier League this season!No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and all good podcast apps.
