Man United Refereeing Bias with Ben Foster

Why do Manchester United seem to receive preferential treatment? Former Manchester United goalkeeper, Ben Foster, joins us to unravel this conundrum, along with discussing the controversial VAR decisions so far this season. The goalkeeper's unique perspective sheds light on pundits' roles in shaping narratives around the game, while also emphasizing the importance of having a goalkeeping representation in punditry teams.

As we journey down the path of football, we tap into the perceptions of bias in football refereeing with Ben, who has seen the game from both the top-tier and the small leagues. We also touch on the indispensable role of goalkeepers in the game and their significance in punditry teams. The discussion wouldn't be complete without our take on the Romero tackle, Aaron Ramsdale's prospects as England's number one goalkeeper, and the importance of education for goalkeepers.

In the riveting finale, we navigate through the hot-debate about the potential ownership changes in football and weigh in on Mark's "Wrexham or Spurs" question on who's likely to bag the Premier League first. We also examine the implications of a player's performance in international competitions on their selection for national teams. To cap it off, we open up a can of worms by questioning whether Virgil Van Dijk is overrated or underrated and throw our predictions into the ring for the upcoming Premier League season. Buckle up for an enlightening rollercoaster ride through the world of football!
