With the transfer window in a lull and the PSR deadline looming, Samuel and George go in-depth on one of the week’s biggest stories: Nick Cox’s departure as Manchester United Academy chief and what it means for the club’s future. We look back at Cox’s legacy, the revival of United’s youth set-up, the rise of stars like Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo, and the challenges ahead for whoever takes over. PLUS: In the second half, Samuel & George take you behind the scenes at the MEN – what it’s really like covering United through the highs, the lows, and everything in between. Samuel shares memories from a decade on the patch, his standout moments as a journalist, and what it’s like reporting through both United’s triumphs and turbulent times.
