#316. You wait years for a 4-0 to turn up and then a whole bunch come along all at once. This week Roy Hodgson's Crystal Palace became the latest victim of United's favourite scoreline. It was so easy that José Mourinho's men barely got out of first gear. Also on the show this week, Ed & Paul look back on another comfortable victory, this time in the Champions League, with the Reds scoring four at CSKA Moscow. Mourinho's team should win the group at a canter. With no games to preview this we...

#315. How big is your dick? No, go on, tell us. Some United fans think Romelu Lukaku's is rather large. Far too many have forgotten the tragic past and present that particular racial stereotype represents. Ed & Paul dissect the controversy and tell fellow fans to just stop. Now. In more positive news, there's a review of United's thumping win over Burton Albion in the League Cup, and the ugly win at Southampton, where José Mourinho reverted to type, but the Reds came away with the points. Th...

#314. Standard. Sure, it may have taken three goals in the last seven minutes to break Everton, but United 4 is fast becoming the most popular scoreline this season. It was also the day Wayne Rooney returned to Old Trafford. He was mostly confused about his position. Ed & Paul look back on United's victory, together with the midweek Champions League game against Basel, and last week's frustrating draw at Stoke. There's a preview of the Reds' games with Burton Albion in the League Cup and nex...

#312. Only 2-0? Mourinho out!

#311. Well, that was fun! Ed & Paul look back over United's 4-0 victory over Swansea City, revel in the three minutes of glorious football which brought about the comfortable scoreline and sing the praises of United's start to the season. Tougher tests await, but it's fun for now. There are a ton of listener questions, a chat about former champions Leicester who await José Mourinho's ruthless 4-0 army at Old Trafford on Saturday, and all the usual nonsense.No Question About That is available...

#310. United are back, baby! We're good again! Or, at least, good enough to smash a lacklustre West Ham side into tiny pieces at Old Trafford. Ed & Paul look back at the game and discuss Big Rom making his home debut and bursting all the Hammers' bubbles, Anthony Martial being brilliant for 10 minutes, Marcus Rashford being brilliant for 80 minutes and United just generally being brilliant for most of the game. On top of that we take listener questions and offer a typically perfunctory previ...

#309. It has been 58 days since the final pod of the 2016/17 season. Two months in which Ed and Paul kicked back and enjoyed the beach in anticipation of an inevitable World War III. Yet, with the planet still in one piece, there must be another show. On this week's show Ed and Paul look back on a busy summer: a tour of the USA, Norway and Ireland, transfers in and out, and defeat to Real Madrid in the Super Cup. There's a preview of the season ahead, some inaccurate predictions, and look ahead ...

#308. For the third of this summer's specials, Paul gets Michael Cox of Zonal Marking on the line, to talk about his excellent new book The Mixer: The Story of Premier League Tactics, from Route One to False Nine.

#307. A couple of weeks ago, Paul sat down with Adam McKola of Full Time Devils to chat about his history with the club and his very specific job as the man who asks United fans what they think just after games.

#306. We promised some stuff in your podcast feed during the summer, and never let it be said we do not deliver on our promises, except sometimes. Paul talks to Tom Coast of Sport Witness about the summer transfer rumours so far; what's credible, what's nonsense, and why Duncan Castles is reporting that José Mourinho is unhappy. Paul and Tom talk Matic, Perisic, Morata, Lukaku (a bit), the fanboy's favourite Fabinho and, of course, Cristiano Ronaldo and Tom assesses the state of play for each of...

#305. It has been three weeks in the making, but here it is - the final show of the season. This week Ed & Paul look back on the past 10 months of football. The highs, the lows, the THREE trophies won. As always, there's the much coveted (not at all coveted) AWARDS: Goal of the Season, Goalkeeper of the Season, Defender of the Season, Midfielder of the Season, Attacker of the Season, and Player of the Season.

#303. It should be a joyous moment, with thousands of Reds getting ready for the Europa League final in Stockholm next week. And yet, José Mourinho's team is doing a fine job of dampening the mood. In this week's pod, Ed & Paul look back at the Reds' uninspiring matches against Celta Vigo at Old Trafford and Tottenham Hotspur in London. There's a bumper round of listener questions and a brief look ahead to the thoroughly meaningless games against Southampton and Crystal Palace in the Premier...

#302. In the fortnight since the last pod José Mourinho has executed on a seemingly long-held plan: to bet everything on Mancheter United winning the Europa League, at the expense of domestic league success. Draws with Swansea City, then defeat at Arsenal has all but ensured a fourth successive season outside the top three. Ed & Paul look back on a series of uninspiring performances in the League, and the relative success of a 1-0 victory at Celta Vigo. As always, there's plenty of listener ...

#301. United scored victory over Anderlecht and Burnley to continue the push for silverware and Champions League qualification on two fronts. Victories came at a heavy price, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Marcos Rojo struck down by serious knee injuries. Good week or bad week? Ed & Paul discuss. There's a preview of the derby on Thursday night, with United travelling to the Etihad. The weekend brings Swansea City to Old Trafford, and as usual there are plenty of listener questions.No Question ...

#300. What a game, what an approach, what a result! José Mourinho's 'tactical masterclass' in United's defeat of Chelsea at Old Trafford was, perhaps, the manager's finest performance as Old Trafford boss. Victory puts United back in the frame for Champions League qualification and buys Mourinho significant credit for the months ahead. Ed & Paul look back on that victory at Old Trafford, together with the far more disappointing draw with Anderlecht in Belgium. There's a preview of the return...

#299. United came, United saw, United stuck it to David Moyes on Wearside. So, it wasn't the finest performance, but after two draws at Old Trafford in the past week, three points offer a great fillip to the Reds' hopes of making the Champions League. Ed & Paul look back on the game at the Stadium of Light and wonder if this victory is enough to get United's campaign for a place in the top four back on track? As usual there are plenty of listener questions and a look ahead to Chelsea's visit...

Ed & Paul run the rule over the West Brom and Everton games at Old Trafford, and try and break down just where it's all going wrong for Jose Mourinho's side. There's chat about man-management and a lengthy diatribe about why David Moyes is really, really bad.

#295. Three appearances for United's Argentinian No. 2 and three wins, with only one unlikely wondergoal conceded. Is the erstwhile World Cup finalist a contender for United's No. 1 shirt? No. Obviously not. Nevertheless, Ed & Paul look back over a week a half which featured three wins and progress in two competitions. There's an interview with legendary illustrator Stanley Chow and a preview of the League Cup final with football writer and Southampton fan Alex Stewart. We take the usual raf...

#294. The last time United faced Saint-Etienne the Red Army had a penchant for smashing up European cities and the Cup Winners Cup was still a thing. The glory days, the 1970s. Time has moved on and although Reds will behave far better at Old Trafford on Thursday and in France next week, the club is still participating in second rate European tournaments.

#293. Victory over Leicester City. That makes United the defacto champions, right? The Reds were back to winning ways with a comfortable win at the King Power Stadium, but it came just days after another disappointing home draw, this time against Hull City.

But they did mention United's loss against Hull City, that nonetheless saw the Red Devils through to a Wembley final, and the joyous 4-0 demolition of Wigan Athletic in the FA Cup.

Where now for José Mourinho's side? That game brought up Wayne Rooney's 250th goal for the club to take the Scouser above Sir Bobby Charlton as United's record goalscorer. Mourinho congratulated the player by ushering him out of the door to China.No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Po...

The Reds' winning run came to an end during a score draw at Old Trafford, but did José Mourinho's side deserve more than that? In six games against the top six this season Mourinho's team has won only once - against Spurs. Can Mourinho change the pattern in the coming months.

In the past week José Mourinho's side beat Middlesbrough at Old Trafford with a comeback of Fergusonian proportions, and gained a somewhat fortunate victory at the Olympic Stadium over West Ham. That's seven on the trot for one of the country's most in-form teams.
