HR is no longer just about managing people—it’s about shaping the future of work. Jens Baier, BCG’s HR transformation expert, discusses how AI and shifting employee expectations are forcing companies to rethink talent strategies. From re-recruiting to upskilling employees, HR must adapt to a rapidly changing landscape.

Ruben Amorim deployed Kobbie Mainoo in one of the number ten positions against FCSB as Manchester United won comfortably to ease themselves through to the last 16 of this year's UEFA Europa League.

A "rotated" starting XI looked like a bit of a gamble from the Portuguese manager, but a cautious approach initially followed by the introduction of more creative players at the break really paid off. The draw for the last 16 will take place later in February with four potential opponents; Galatasaray, AZ Alkmaar, Real Sociedad, or FC Midtjylland.

There's at least one transfer in the offing, but even that might be held up. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace are next up in the Premier League, and United's recent record against them does not make for pretty reading. Do they qualify as a bogey team?

Bilbao or bust: Utd crash out of FA Cup 55:56

1 day geleden55:56

55:56

With European qualification via the Premier League an outlandish prospect, Ruben Amorim's Manchester United had two hopes of making it back into continential competition. On Sunday, two became one. Another dispiriting, disappointing showing saw Fulham defy Bruno Fernandes second-half equaliser to progress to the quarter-finals via a penalty shoot-out. The Champions League may yet save our bacon, but Real Sociedad provide the first of up to four significant obstacles standing in the Europa League route. Hopes for the future may lie with youth, but even that's complicated! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

Bruno set-pieces see off Ipswich amid more job cuts 56:50

6 dagen geleden56:50

56:50

The r-word has been put to bed after Bruno Fernandes delivered three more set-piece goals (via Morsy, De Ligt, and Maguire), but there was no shortage of drama at Old Trafford on Wednesday night with Andre Onana setting hearts racing again and Patrick Dorgu dismissed on his first home start. Fighting spirit on the pitch, then, but surely a sombre mood among Manchester United's staff after they were informed of more job cuts by Omar Berrada. We briefly break down the main points with a TotD Extra on executive strategy coming up next week. Fulham are better than Ipswich, it's fair to say, and they will pose a real threat to progress in the FA Cup. Can this competition provide the boost, and the route to Europe, that it did last season?

Bruno and Ugarte salvage point at Goodison Park 41:51

10 dagen geleden41:51

41:51

If you were to try and identify Manchester United's worst first half performance this season you would have a lengthy queue of candidates, but the latest showing at Goodison Park might just be it. In fact, the malaise dragged on for 70 minutes when, possibly fortunate to only be 2-0 down, the team were sparked into life by Bruno Fernandes. The captain beat Jordan Pickford with a free-kick but also dropped deeper in midfield to generate some momentum. Manuel Ugarte's well taken equaliser was the end of the scoring, even if there was plenty of drama yet to come. But, with Kieran McKenna's Ipswich Town coming to Old Trafford on Wednesday, Laurie is doing some frantic sums! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

Varane on Ten Hag and club accounts reignite debt debate 56:25

Our normal schedule resumes and we're back on some familiar subject matter, but not before another big interview courtesy of the team at The Athletic; this time, Charlotte Harpur sat down with Raphael Varane and while he spoke in a measured manner he was fairly candid about his time at the club. Manchester United's accounts were published on Wednesday and, even for those versed in the club's financial problems, some alarming figures emerged. Debt repayments resulting from the Glazer family's leveraged takeover have now passed £1b. On the pitch, it's the last ever trip to Goodison Park this week. After a long sustained period of success there, fortunes changed somewhat; a solid recent record might be threatened by a Blues side resurgent under the doubly familiar figure of David Moyes.

TOTD EXTRA: United’s search for the ideal Amorim striker 44:00

It's the debut of our spin-off, in-depth, discussion podcast Talk of the Devils EXTRA and we're not afraid to dive in head first! Getting goals is the most valuable skill in football and, as a result, strikers are the most expensive players. It's also something Manchester United are really struggling with this season and a likely priority in the next transfer window. So, who are United's recruiters looking at? Has the shortlist changed much since Ruben Amorim came in? What does all this mean for the strikers already on the books? And, can a former Utd striker provide any clues to exactly what it takes to succeed? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

Wasteful United edged out at Spurs 57:47

16 dagen geleden57:47

57:47

It was dubbed El Calamatico; a clash of two teams falling disastrously short of expectation in the Premier League this season. Unfortunately for us it was Tottenham, through Manchester United fan James Maddison, who found the crucial breakthrough. In fairness to Ruben Amorim's eleven, they had little support from the bench after a series of injuries in training this week. But, the forwards failed to convert one of a few decent chances on the night; an all too familiar story (that we will look into in greater detail on Wednesday's all-new TotD Extra). With Amad Diallo ruled out for the season we're facing up to the reality of a lengthy period of pain and suffering, all the more difficult to endure because you can't know for sure whether Amorim is the man to bring success back to Old Trafford.

Inside United’s player data department and Spurs preview 1:06:39

No midweek game but no respite; this is Manchester United! It's an epic show with no fewer than three FA Cup round-ups after the senior men and women and the U18s all booked their opponents in their respective competitions. If things aren't going great in the Premier League, it may be even messier in the backroom where more job cuts were announced in an effort to stem a major financial drain, even if the cause of that shortfall lies elsewhere. Before a look at the Calamatico v Spurs, we also dip into United's effort to catch up with the Premier League's best performers on their data systems and usage. Improvements are long overdue, but are Brighton and Bournemouth a fair comparison? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

Maguire header beats Leicester as Dorgu debuts (on the right!) 56:15

56:15

Harry Maguire was the hero at Old Trafford on Friday night as Manchester United progressed to the fifth round of the FA Cup in entirely uncontroversial fashion... well, that's not entirely true. Yes, it was offside, but that's not the controversy we're talking about. What we want to know (as do many listeners) is why Ruben Amorim played his new left-sided winger on the right! Patrick Dorgu played 45 minutes at right wing-back before he became a half-time substitute for Alejandro Garnacho, with the Argentinian injecting pace and purpose into what had been a dour performance. Meanwhile, his compatriot Lisandro Martinez is facing up to a long rehab after confirmation of an injury to his anterior cruciate ligament. Learn more about your ad choices.

Window closes with no new attackers: Cup focus to start with Leicester? 49:50

The January transfer window closed on Monday with a new experience for Manchester United fans. The club's restraint in the face of deals they didn't consider good value has been met with a mixed reception by fans. So, with the help of your questions, we assess that strategy, and think about how Ruben Amorim will now address the main problem he has this season; a team that doesn't score enough goals. Can he turn the Reds aroooound? Ruud van Nistelrooy will return to Old Trafford on Friday for the first time since his short interim spell as manager; one that included unceremoniously dumping Leicester City out of a domestic cup competition.

Another home defeat as Rashford nears exit 56:57

4 weeks geleden56:57

56:57

Any sense of optimism that had been building around Ruben Amorim's team was squashed by a workmanlike Crystal Palace who, remarkably, haven't conceded a goal against Manchester United in two years. Were the wounds self-inflicted? Amorim chose to move Kobbie Mainoo, excellent in Europe as a ten, to play false nine and left out both his misfiring strikers. Overthinking, or perhaps a message to the transfer department? Danish international Patrick Dorgu has signed from Serie A's Lecce and uncertainty about Marcus Rashford's future may be coming to a head as he travels to Bodymoor Heath for a medical at Aston Villa. Complicated deal it may be, but will it free up funds for the club to bring in an attacker before Monday night's transfer deadline. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…

Fortunate Fulham winner for Martinez as United strikers struggle 1:00:52

There's a case to say Lisandro Martinez is providing Manchester United's most potent attacking threat at the moment as we dig into some alarming trends with respect to the centre forwards. Positive sounding news on stadium development this week but unease continues to rumble among the fans and there was a fairly hostile response to Sir Jim Ratcliffe's presence at Craven Cottage. But, with FCSB up next, a top eight finish in the Europa League first phase might bring some respite and everyone but the Window Warriors TM will be glad to see the transfer deadline pass next week.

Bruno's dramatic Rangers winner; United on brink of Europa knockouts 59:49

Captain Bruno rescued three Europa League points for Manchester United after Cyriel Dessers looked to have earned Rangers a draw at the death. But while a European top eight finish, bypassing the play-off round, now looks likely there is still a lot of uncertainty around the club with financial question marks muddying the transfer waters. Will the club reach a deal for Patrick Dorgu, can the price be right for Alejandro Garnacho, and might Marcus Rashford still have a future at Old Trafford? We'll find out next week, after a very tricky trip to West London, where the eye-watering ticket prices are only adding to fans' anxiety. Learn more about your ad choices.

Denis Law remembered. More Brighton woe: worst United team ever? 1:02:33

Strong themes running through today's show as we remember United great Denis Law, the only Scottish footballer ever to win the Ballon d'Or, after his death on Friday at 84. How this current team could do with a centre forward, a goalscorer, an all-round footballer of Denis's ability. After Brighton won at Old Trafford again, Ruben Amorim called his side the worst in United's history. A joke, perhaps, but we're not laughing. Ella Toone celebrated her recent return to action with a hat-trick in a momentous derby win, the women's first ever victory away at Manchester City. Next up for the men is a Europa League clash with a Rangers team who seem to save their best for this competition.

Amad hat-trick spares United blushes against Southampton 1:01:53

Ian Irving might have been glad of a day off, very glad indeed, were it not for Amad's late show at Old Trafford on Thursday night. He became Manchester United's second youngest hat-trickster after Wayne Rooney and their first since Cristiano Ronaldo. While the 22 year-old Ivorian has a long way to achieve the stature of those two players, he is well on his way to becoming a cult hero and is a shining light at a time when things are still not going to plan; the first 75 minutes of this game saw Southampton, yes Southampton, good value for a one-nil advantage. Brighton are next and, while they got their first win in nine Premier League games at Ipswich, they have a very good record against United in recent times. Meanwhile, on the transfer front, no news is both good news and bad news.
