Listen Later

When it comes to Manchester United, the fall has been almost as dramatic as the rise. But could a change of leadership herald a change in fortunes for one of the world’s biggest clubs?

With Richard Arnold replacing the much-maligned Ed Woodward as United chief executive, we analyse the task facing him as he looks to revive the team’s fortunes, renovate a decaying stadium and navigate the toxic relationship between the club’s American owners and their fans.
