Manchester United Still Need MORE Signings | The United Foundry Podcast

Are Manchester United fans right to be worried about the transfer window — or is there still plenty of time for INEOS to get it right? In the first episode of The United Foundry Podcast, Gaz Drinkwater and Callum Stone discuss United’s transfer strategy, the club’s pursuit of young talent and whether the squad still desperately needs another midfielder before the Premier League season begins. They also get into Marcus Rashford’s return to Manchester United, the criticism surrounding his life off the pitch and whether fans should care what players do away from football if they perform when it matters. Then, attention turns to a much bigger issue: INEOS’ relationship with Manchester United supporters. From season-ticket controversy and rising prices to the diminishing influence of the Fans’ Forum, has Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s regime fundamentally misunderstood what makes Manchester United different? Plus: what would have happened if José Mourinho had replaced Sir Alex Ferguson in 2013? Would United have won another Premier League title — and would the post-Ferguson collapse simply have been delayed? 00:00 Welcome to The United Foundry Podcast 01:06 Man United transfer rumours & silly season 03:24 Are United moving too slowly in the market? 04:30 Louis Page & United’s youth recruitment strategy 06:38 Do Man United still need another midfielder? 10:22 Why United fans shouldn’t panic yet 12:48 Why young players still want Manchester United 17:22 Marcus Rashford is back at Man United 18:07 Should fans care about Rashford off the pitch? 23:40 INEOS and the treatment of United fans 27:14 Ticket prices, touting & the matchgoing fan 31:12 What going to Old Trafford actually means 33:08 Have INEOS misunderstood Manchester United? 38:55 What if Mourinho replaced Ferguson in 2013? 42:41 Are United ready for the new season? 43:02 Picking Man United’s best XI Subscribe to The United Foundry for weekly Manchester United discussion, reaction and opinion. #ManchesterUnited #MUFC #ManUtd #INEOS #MarcusRashford SUBSCRIBE    / @theunitedfoundry   FOLLOW THE UNITED FOUNDRY X: https://x.com/utdfoundry Instagram:   / theunitedfoundry   TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@theunitedfoun...
