Summary

Daily #816 | The winter transfer window has closed not so much with a bang but a whimper as far as Manchester United are concerned. There are three in and three out... and yet the details matter. United have bought one senior player and two youth players this January, and then loaned three senior players out - including Marcus Rashford. Ed and Dominic analyse the window, what it means for United's transfer strategy, and where the club might go from here.

0:30.6	balls to do it.
0:31.4	I tried convincing, but yeah, it didn't work at all. All right, we're going to talk about the transfer window that has just closed what United did, what they didn't do, where it leaves us, and perhaps some insight into the strategy.

1:02.0	I guess there's a general sense of feeling fairly deflated about this one amongst the fan base.
1:08.1	Is that, have I caught the mood right?
1:10.1	Yeah, I felt really flat.
1:11.3	I felt really flat. And I know there's, there's so many different strands and layers to this and
1:15.8	PSR regulations, which we'll get into, I'm sure, later in the podcast. But to see United's being
