(23:11) It’ll be a big season for Manchester United and Erik ten Hag. Do they have any chance of breaking back in to the top four? (33:53) Which team is the team to watch out for this season? Who’ll surprise us in 2022/23? (42:30) Fulham, Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest are back in the top flight, some have been away longer than others. What does the season have in store for the newly-promoted clubs and which is the best bet to stay up? (55:32) We’re a week in to the EFL season and already Burnley have impressed a lot of people.
