About this episode
#877 | Ed and Wayne skip the usual NQAT awards ceremony and dive into the end-of-season mailbag instead. Bruno Fernandes was Player of the Year, obviously. THat's all. Answering questions from listeners, they discuss the club's financial struggle and speculate about the complexities of offloading unwanted players. Concerns over failed transfers, management inefficiencies, and the club's declining global brand are also highlighted. Questions also dive into historical failures in recruitment and ponder the worst players signed by Sir Alex Ferguson. Also, there's a strangely long discussion about who would win a wheelbarrow race among footballing brothers. š CHAPTERS 00:00 Introduction 01:21 Mailbag: Transfer Market Concerns 05:15 Worst Player Signings Under Fergie 07:11 Recent Team Performance 11:38 Managerial Player Relations 19:14 Midfield Recruitment Issues 21:47 Youth Talent and Transfer Policies 23:08 Striker Performance 25:54 The Glazers' Mismanagement 35:33 Phil Jones 42:13 Footballing Brothers 48:23 Farewell Learn more about your ad choices.
