Ep 2839: Challenge State United, Timo Time, Deeney’s Indignation - 15/01/2024

If Jadon Sancho feels a bit hard done by after his treatment at Manchester United maybe he should take a look at what is happening at Forest Green Rovers, where charismatic young coach Troy Deeney is showing what can happen when managers are prepared to take off the kid gloves and start dealing out some harsh truths.

Jack Pitt-Brooke and Mark Critchley join us to talk about the weekend’s PL action. How can Ange Postecoglou get his B-team to play the same way as the injured first-teamers?

And would football be better if it cast off the shackles of regulation and allowed the richest owners the freedom to express their visions and dreams to the max?
