Description

The Promised Land is a Manchester United podcast brought to you by football journalist, editor and presenter Scott Saunders talking all the latest on the biggest club in England. Taking an approach of "never too high, never too low", a phrase coined by TPL's former co-host, the late Rob Blanchette, the show aims to bring an element of calmness and measured analysis on what we see on and off the pitch in relation to United. Scott has the unique insight of being a fan of the club for 30 years and working in the football media scene for over a decade, and will often endeavour to bring an alternative eye and critical thinking to what's being reported. There's no shouting or over the top reactions, but instead level-headed conversation on all the latest topics for every United fan to enjoy.

Scott Saunders speaks in today's podcast about the consistently negative media coverage around United which makes it even more difficult to follow a club that's failing on the pitch, but points to some comments from Ruben Amorim which should serve as a reminder for the reality United are in and how fans should manage their expectations for the immediate future. There's also a look ahead to the Spurs game and thoughts on the latest round of redundancies at United. #manchesterunited #manutdtransfers #manutd Get in touch below.

Jadon Sancho's "freedom" comment on Rashford's Instagram post after the game, reflecting on what these developments say about United's recruitment in the last few years and the culture that has been created. #manchesterunited #manutdtransfers #manutd Get in touch below.
