Manchester United are all set to kick off the Premier League season on Friday night when they entertain Fulham at Old Trafford.
It's been a busy summer for the Red Devils, with Jason Wilcox, Omar Berrada and Dan Ashworth joining the club's hierarchy, while Erik ten Hag remained as boss despite much speculation surrounding his future.
United have also been proactive in the transfer market, bringing in the Dutch trio of Joshua Zirkzee, Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui, along with French defender Lenny Yoro for an outlay of more than £150million.
And, in the first episode of It's All Kicking Off! season two, Ian Ladyman and Chris Sutton discussed United's business over recent months.

Ladyman praised United for doing their work in the market early and highlighted their desire to improve standards around the club following a disappointing campaign last time around.
Sutton echoed his co-host's thoughts, but pointed out how United still have the same manager, and he also claimed the additions of Dutch players who have a previous link to Ten Hag in De Ligt and Mazaraoui feels a bit 'samey'.
