Michael Carrick takes his Manchester United squad to Bournemouth for a Friday night fixture which will be followed by a 23-day break. With a patchy recent record against the Cherries, a win will keep the Champions League charge going during that hiatus.
Will there be a defensive reshuffle? Leny Yoro has regained some form and played very well against Aston Villa, but Lisandro Martinez is expected to be fit and has unique qualities. There’s a question mark at right back as well with Noussair Mazraoui, an AFCON champion (for now, at least), pushing for some minutes. Places up front will be interesting, too.
Before that game, there’s an FA Youth Cup tie at home to Sunderland. Chris McKenna drops by to discuss that, Andy fills us in on his interview with Steve Torpey, and we round things off with a look at United fans travelling over from the Emerald Isle.

Had me in the first half there, thought this podcast was beaming in from the future

Liverpool and Chelsea are away to Brighton and Everton.
We just need to match their results really. A draw might be enough.
We should have everyone back from injury after the break at least.

I’ll be happy with a draw. Bournemouth is not a fun place to go, and they haven’t lost a game in two months. A defeat would be incredibly disappointing, given that Bournemouth draw all their games.
But a win would be a huge step towards finishing third, especially if Liverpool and Chelsea drop points (as we may expect them to do).

We have already scored 4 goals against this team this season. We just have to do the same and concede 3 goals this time round.
