  • Summary

  • MANCHESTER UNITED host CHELSEA in a vintage Barclays encounter that happens to be the first Premier League match since Erik ten Hag's dismissal as United manager. The Dutchman is the latest casualty of the club's disorder and decline since Sir Alex Ferguson's departure a decade ago, but how much is down to his poor decision-making? How much is down to the players? And will the new ownership and football executive structure be the platform new manager Rúben Amorim needs to change the plot?


    Of course, Chelsea have been a bit nutty too over the last few years, but they might just be getting it together under their own new boss, Enzo Maresca. Are the Blues from West London a bit of a model for United as they try to get back on track?


    Joining us to answer that—and try to digest the madness of this week and the last few years—is journalist and United fan Usmaan Akhtar. We also took a minute to reminisce about the glory days of this rivalry, when these two English heavyweights were battling at the top of the European game.
