Summary

Not for the first time Manchester United have proven they still have glimpses of class in the team - as shown by Bruno Fernandes in their 1-1 draw with Arsenal. Despite sitting 14th in the Premier League, the Europa League still offers a backdoor into next season’s Champions League. So how crucial is European qualification to Ruben Amorim’s plans for an Old Trafford overhaul? Ayo Akinwolere is joined by The Athletic's Manchester United writer Laurie Whitwell and Phil Hay to discuss the Ruben Amorim 'project' at Old Trafford to date while Mark Critchley also drops in to explain the financial need to secure European qualification to help finance a summer overhaul of the playing squad. Host: Ayo Akinwolere With: Laurie Whitwell, Phil Hay and Mark Critchley Executive Producer: Adey Moorhead Producer: Guy Clarke Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
