A Crisis in Three Acts

#346. Well that didn't last long. United may have beaten Leicester City on the opening day of the new season, but it was far from a convincing performance. And if supporters thought that was just a sluggish start, far worse was to come away to Brighton last weekend. After a dismissal pre-season and a very public row between Paul Pogba and the manager, some are questioning José Mourinho's future at the club. On the show this week Ed & Paul look back at United's calamitous defeat on the south ...

Hooray! It's another season!

#345. An air of joy and goodwill has infected the pod ahead of the new season; it can only be José Mourinho's joie de vivre and bonhomie. Well, it is less than a month since France won the World Cup! On the show this week Ed & Paul look back on United's pre-season in the US, discuss transfers, or the lack of, preview the coming season, and look ahead to the Reds' fixture against Leicester City on Friday night.

World Cup – GOATs out

#342. It has been good, hasn't it, the World Cup?

World Cup – Preview Edition

#340. For the next month the pod is parking any discussion of José Mourinho, the Premier League and domestic football. Instead, there's the world's biggest tournament to enjoy. One month, 32 teams, more than 60 games - and plenty of United interest.

And the Manager of the Year Award Goes to …

#339. The season ended in disappointment; José Mourinho's prosaic side going down to Chelsea at Wembley. Not that there hasn't been plenty of that to go around over these past five long years. No FA Cup redemption to save a trophyless season. Ed & Paul look back on the FA Cup Final, a game in which Mourinho's side pushed a resolute Chelsea, but never really looked like having enough after Phil Jones' catastrophic error gifted the Blues a penalty. There's the end of season awards, plenty of l...

Farewell Michael Carrick

#338. The Premier League season ended with a whimper rather than a bang - a lifeless draw at West Ham followed by a lifeless home victory over Watford. José Mourinho's team finished the campaign on 81 points - the best total since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement - but 19 behind Manchester City. Ed & Paul review the week's games and look forward to the FA Cup Final against Chelsea at Wembley.No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Ama...

Sir Alex

#337. This would have been a rant about United's abject result on the South Coast in losing to Brighton. About the travesty of the collective performance and most of the individuals last Friday. About José Mourinho's tactics and his decision to throw his players under the bus. Yet again. But then Sir Alex Ferguson fell seriously ill. It kinda put things into perspective.No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and all good p...

Specialist in Failure

#336. So it is goodbye to the specialist in failure who signed off at Old Trafford with ... another failure. This time it was close, with Arsenal's youngsters giving a good account of themselves until Marouane Fellaini's injury-time winner. How fitting victory should come in Fergie-time, with Sir Alex leading the pre-match ceremonies. Ed & Paul look back on the weekend's late victory over Arsene Wenger's side, ahead to a match with Brighton, and take plenty of listener questions. No Question...

They Got a bit Spursy

#335. Another FA Cup semi-final, another victory as United cruised past Tottenham at Wembley. The Reds won 2-1, but it seemed a lot easier than that. Could the season end on a high after all? Ed & Paul look back on the weekend's FA Cup action, discuss prospects for the final against Chelsea and look ahead to Premier League fixture with Arsenal.

Handing City the Title on a Plate

#334. Well that was good, wasn't it? After last week's comeback victory over City at the Etihad, José Mourinho's handed the Blues the Premier League title by losing to West Brom. The worst team in the league. At home. Again. It sucks and so did most of United's players. Ed & Paul look back on the weekend's loss and ask what it means for the biggest game of the season to date: United's semi-final with Spurs at Wembley this weekend. There's a midweek game against Bournemouth previewed and plen...

Worst Episode Ever!

#333. Wait, what?! Two episodes delivered in successive weeks! What witchcraft must this be? After last week's "worst episode ever" Ed & Paul take on a more joyous tone in light of United's extraordinary Derby comeback victory over City at the Etihad. Also on the show this week, the guys take plenty of listener questions and look ahead to the weekend's game with manageress West Brom.

And We're Back!

#332. It's been a long time coming but the pod is finally back on air. Having recovered from a bout of suspicious poisoning that kept him on the sidelines for a month, Paul is ready to take on the challenge of not laughing at Ed's bad jokes or responding to the many hot takes. Paul has much praise for the glorious leader Vladimir Putin. Also on the show, the guys catch up on a month of United action - there have been mixed results haven't there?

The Pedestrianisation of Manchester United

#331. A creditable 0-0 draw away in Seville and a triumphant 2-1 win over Champions League place rivals Chelsea? Well, those are the bare facts, but Ed & Paul look back on the good, the bad and the mostly very indifferent in those two games. There are plenty of listener questions as per - now that Ed has set up an autotweet to ask for them - and a preview of Crystal Palace and the big game in a couple of weeks against Liverpool. Also, Paul waxes lyrical about Romelu Lukaku.No Question About ...

Betting it All on the Cup

#330. Another challenging week José Mourinho's side: a crushing defeat at Newcastle followed by victory over Huddersfield in the cup. Defeat in the north east drags United into a five-way race for Champions League qualification, although a place in the FA Cup quarter-final comes with a favourable home draw. Also on the show this week a look ahead to United's Champions League game against Sevilla in Spain and the weekend's fixture with Chelsea.No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts...

Dogs Dinner of a Banner

#329. From a sound beating at Wembley to a safe victory at Old Trafford, it has been a mixed past week for Jose Mourinho's side. Ed & Paul look back on defeat to Tottenham in north London and ask, "was that the worst defeat under Mourinho?" United gained some redemption with a solid, if not wholly impressive, win over Huddersfield. There's a look ahead to the weekend's trip to Newcastle and plenty of listener questions.No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, S...

#326. It's that time of year when the back pages are full of gossip about the world class players that United never sign. Except... well there's one, isn't there! Amid the discussion about transfers in and out, Ed & Paul look back on an enjoyable victory over Stoke at Old Trafford and ahead to the weekend's game at Burnley. As always, there are plenty of listener questions and, for backers, a general chat about the state of the title race.No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts...

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow

#325. After an extended festive break Ed & Paul have five games to review, including a disappointing run of results in both league and cup before the turn of the year. That changed with United's victory over Everton at Goodison Park and an FA Cup win against Derby County. There are plenty of listener questions, a look ahead to United's game against manager-less Stoke City next Monday, and a quick debate about Mourinho vs Conte, which has descended from accusations of "senility" to comments a...

In the Bag

#324. Two wins in a week following last weekend's derby-day defeat, yet neither quite got Jose Mourinho's side back on track. With the Premier League title race all but over, United's victories over Bournemouth and West Brom felt as flat as the Reds' performance. Ed & Paul look back on United's games in the past week and wonder when Mourinho's side will get over this blip. There's also a look ahead to a busy Christmas schedule, with games against Bristol City, Leicester and Burnley over the ...

Still Got the Blues for Mou

#323. This pod would have been a lot more fun had Ed & Paul known about José Mourinho's City dressing room incursion and the subsequent 20-man brawl. As it is, there's a downbeat tone after the Blues comfortably beat United at Old Trafford. It leaves an 11-point gap at the top of the Premier League and the title probably heading towards the Etihad. After the storm comes Bournemouth at Old Trafford on Wednesday and then West Brom in the Midlands next weekend. As always there's plenty of liste...

Dave Saves

#322. Well, that's better. The narrative surrounding José Mourinho's side had become a little negative, not least because of United's defeat at Stamford Bridge last month. Two resounding victories at Watford and then Arsenal have changed all that. Ed & Paul briefly look back on defeat to Basel in the Champions League in what was effectively a dead rubber that is very unlikely to alter United's European fate. Then there's United's comfortable win at Vicarage Road and a dramatic victory at the...

The Pogba Experience

#321. Yo, naysayers claiming that Paul Pogba is over-rated, too expensive and never turns up! Get. Back. In. Your. Box. Pogba is back. Bigger, stronger, and better than ever before. Boy did United miss him. After a difficult month, in which United lost two Premier League games to fall eight points behind City in the title race, José Mourinho's men are back on course, with a thumping victory over Newcastle United - in no little part due to the Frenchman's return. Ed & Paul digest all the fall...

Bridge to Troubled Waters

#320. It has been a busy fortnight since the last pod. José Mourinho's side lost at Stamford Bridge - again - the manager criticised the fans - again - and everybody was bored by the international break - again. Ed & Paul look back on defeat to Chelsea, which leaves United seven points behind City, and with just one league victory in four. Is this just a blip or has Mourinho's side hit its limited - a team that just isn't very good? Also on the show - listener questions and a look ahead to t...
