What did he have to say in the latest one about the "Man Utd Master plan"?
In a nutshell, Utd finally seems to have a cohesive plan for the long run. It will take time for Utd to turn the corner and challenge for PL title (a couple of years at least).

Acceptance that there needs to be a clear out of players who are ok with losing. It doesn't bother them. Not the right profile or type of player Utd want to be successful.

Issues with quality of the academy and medical department aren't just ETH, they go back to Mourinho time and beyond. It's being addressed.

That kind of thing.

I've always enjoyed his stuff. Not saying he's always right.

Being so entrenched in Mourinhos / Cristiano Ronaldo camp probably didn't do him any favours.
 
He's a strange guy who's basically a propagandist for certain people in the game he has connections with - Mourinho, Rui Faria etc.

And he gets a thrill out of winding up fans on twitter by making agenda driven digs at certain clubs and managers, which is why he's so hated.

But he's very clearly well connected. He had boardroom level info on Ole's sacking before anyone else, and is clearly in bed with many agents, Mendes being the most obvious one. The fact he's a bellend makes people pretend that he doesn't know anything which is clearly not true.
 
Castles has Orstein in as a guest (this was last week)
