Dale and Brian are joined by Stretty News columnist Matt Henderson to reflect on Manchester United's 2-1 win over Brentford.

Scott McTominay scored a brace in stoppage time after coming off the bench to force a comeback. Old Trafford erupted and the boos that were heard at half-time were countered by full-time cheers.

The lads then discuss Andre Onana's form. The goalkeeper made another blunder against Brentford, although the goal came from a catalog of errors. Brian hits the nail on the head with his explanation on why pundits will focus on Onana but not Liverpool's Allison whenever he makes mistakes. The Brazilian had a blunder of his own against Brighton last weekend.

Matt tells us he thinks Manchester United will go all the way in Europe... and then we slapped him with a bit of reality.

Furthermore, some chat about the new David Beckham documentary series on Netflix without too many spoilers.

Manchester United’s season goes from bad to worse with a record of six defeats in our opening 10 matches. Andre Onana is in a world of his own, the defence is makeshift at best and Casemiro picks up his first red card of the campaign. All while Rasmus Hojlund proves to be the only silver lining with his brace on against Galatasaray. Season ticket holders may wonder why there is sticky piece of Turkish Delight is stuck to the bottom of their seat, but we can assure you the Glazers aren’t being generous. That and more on the Strettycast episode 173 with season ticket holder Nathan Thomas. 

We also discuss a new initiative from the Manchester United Foundation, which Nathan does work for. They are appealing for a winter coat collection ahead of this weekend's game against Brentford. It's a sobering thought that some of the youth in our community are fearful of being cold this winter and this is your opportunity to help through your football club.

The work Nathan and others do is something we can be proud of as Manchester United fans.

Dale, Brian and Jonathan get together to share their thoughts after watching back-to-back games against Crystal Palace.

Jonathan Shrager is considered royalty in these parts as a discerning Red who helped launch Stretty News TV back during the Moyesy era, so it was fascinating to catch up with up a good friend I've got to know really well through our love for Manchester United.

Episode 172 overview

Why was there a sudden drop in standards when Erik ten Hag made several changes to the team that knocked Palace out of the Carabao Cup before recalling some big names and losing to the same side four days later?

Do we have the same emotion behind winning the Carabao Cup this season?

Is Marcus Rashford really the problem like some sections of the fanbase suggest or does Ten Hag stand by our most prolific scorer last season?

Three months without Lisandro Martinez?

Rubbish surrounding the takeover as the Glazers continue to bleed United dry.

That and more in your latest Strettycast!

Dale and Brian set off on their travels across Europe to watch Manchester United take on Bayern Munich. Although there's a lot of negativity surrounding the club, there was excitement in the air as United returned to the Champions League. From Dublin to Frankfurt to Munich, picking up stories along the way that we'll never forget. The Manchesterplatz was something the two of us visited for the first time, which was a emotional experience and it was good to hear the club follow suit with a delegation on Thursday morning. There was also disappointment on the pitch as United suffered a 4-3 defeat at the hands of the Bundesliga champions, but let's not forget how Rasmus Hojlund get off the mark, right?
