Joe Townsend is joined by Dale Tempest, Paul Higham and Tom Carnduff to discuss the Premier League week, focusing on the sorry situation at Manchester United in particular. Our team talk through all the problems at Old Trafford and try to work out if it’s all Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s fault or if the problems run deeper. There’s also the question of just how much time and money it will take to get them back to the top. We also discuss the rest of the midweek action including welcome wins for Bournemouth and Aston Villa as the relegation battle takes yet more twists and turns. There’s also the small matter of the FA Cup coming up – are any of the big boys likely to be the subject of classic cup shocks? Our team make their picks.
