☁️ The clouds have lifted over Old Trafford since the weekend with United’s smash-and-grab win down at Anfield — but has the storm truly passed? ⚡️

United’s failures on the pitch in recent years have only been compounded by the uncanny ability of their former flops to reach new heights away from the stifling drag around the Theatre of Dreams 🏟️.

In this episode of Injury Time, we see if United fan Johnny can put together a 5-a-side team ⚽️ of current United players that can beat United-hater Alistair’s team of cast-offs and rejects 🚷. Is Šeško better than Rashford? How does Dorgu compare to Elanga? 🤔

Johnny is ahead in the series — but only just. Can Alistair bring them level, or can Johnny put some space between the two? 🔴⚫️

🎙️ Note: This episode was recorded before United’s aforementioned victory over Liverpool 🏆 and Forest’s appointment of, ahem, Sean Dyche. 😬 Yikes.
