A New Low

A Kick up the Arsenal

#404. United's victories over Newcastle and Burnley seem a distant memory after yet another set-back for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team. Defeat at Arsenal was not just a sixth in the Premier League this season, but perhaps a nadir in a campaign of too many humiliating lows. Devoid of ideas and any intensity, United were comfortably beaten in North London. Ed & Paul digest another low and ask how United pick up from here with a tough schedule ahead? There's a discussion about Paul Pogba's future...

Festive Cheer

Rick-et man

Greenwood Saves United, Again

#399. No 18-year-old should have this much pressure, but Mason Greenwood is fast becoming the highlight of Manchester United's season.

The Mason Show

#398. United secured top spot in Europa League Group L with a comfortable victory over AZ Alkmaar at Old Trafford.

Paint the City Red

#397. It may have been improbable, but United's victory over Manchester City this weekend was one of the very best under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's leadership. United executed the manager's strategy perfectly, defended like lions, and created a hatful of chances. What a game, what a result, what a day for the reds.Also on the show this week, plenty of questions from listeners, a brief look ahead to United's Europa League fixture with AZ Alkmaar, and an interview with Omar Chaudhuri, Head of Football...

Good Boy, José

#396. José Mourinho's return to Old Trafford dominated the pre-match discussion, but it was his old club that came out on top in a thrilling match.

Peaky Blinder of a Goal

#395. United versus Aston Villa at Old Trafford. The Brummies started the day in 16th. This should have been an easier day for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men. It definitely wasn't.

New Beginnings

#394. We've got some news to share. After 10 years and 400 episodes we've changed our name. We thought long and hard over this decision. On the one hand, its a much-loved (well, at least by some) and widely known podcast. We like to think that if we’re not the best fan-produced Manchester United podcast, then we’re at least in the top 1. Yet, times also move on, and in the age of Fan TV, the title doesn’t reflect the thoughtful, critical and analytical approach we take to producing the podcast e...

Papering Over the Cracks

#391. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team escaped with a draw at Sheffield United, but for 71 awful minutes the home side was the only team in play. United were horrible, as bad as anything we've seen this season. Then, inexplicably, a goal out of nothing sparked 10 frenzied minutes in which Solskjaer's side almost took an unlikely win. Ed & Paul look back on all the drama from Brammall Lane and ask - with Mauricio Pochettino out of work - whether there are better options out there? There's a short ...

Rule of Three

#389. Two victories to discuss this week: two games in which United scored three. First, Ed & Paul discuss a 3-0 win over Partizan at Old Trafford, a result that sends the Reds through to the knock-out stages of the Europa League. Then there's a fine victory over Brighton to cap off a good week for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Impotence

#388. United lost at Bournemouth as any momentum Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team had gained over the past fortnight evaporated during a miserable day on the south coast. Bournemouth deserved the victory; United came away with nothing after a performance of miserable impotence.

Could be Worse

#386. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side earned a draw with Liverpool at Old Trafford, but could it have been so much more. Ed & Paul discuss all the fallout from United's game with Liverpool where the home side emerged with some credit after a more competitive performance than of late.

Fatalism, Inc.

#385. United lost at Newcastle. It was just about as bad as anything in the post-Fergie era. Fans are calling for Ole's head. Would it make a difference? Probably not. Ed & Paul discuss United's draw with Alkmaar, defeat at Newcastle, and the upcoming game against Liverpool. Sorry folks, but very little of it is positive.

Foxes, Tamed

#383. Victory over Leicester was something of a surprise given the dominant narrative around these two sides. The Foxes are a team on the rise, with a high quality midfield, and an in-form striker. United, by contrast, a team in perpetual transition, with a midfield as weak as any in living memory. The result, a 1-0 victory, broke this narrative, although the game played out to a predictable pattern. Ed & Paul discuss the weekend's victory, look forward to United's Europa League kick-off at ...

Rash Decisions Cost Reds

#381. So much for the promising start to the season. It was always going to be a bumpy campaign, but few envisioned United dropping points at home to Crystal Palace, and in such devastating fashion.

Reds Bite Back

#380. United were outclassed three times by Wolves last season. This is time it was United's turn to demonstrate some quality, putting in an encouraging performance in a 1-1 draw at Molineux. Anthony Martial scored the Reds' only goal as United dominated for much of the match. Yet, the post-match commentary focused entirely on Paul Pogba's penalty miss. Hysterical? Much.No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and all good p...

The New Season Starts Here

#378. The summer's entertainment has ended, with United losing out on the famous transfer trophy having done far less in the market than was needed to revitalise a flagging club. Ed & Paul look back on moves for Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James this summer, concluding that it is far from enough to return United to former glories.

The (Famous) End of Season Awards

#377. United signed off the season with a limp draw against already relegated Huddersfield, followed by a humiliating home defeat to already relegated Cardiff. It capped off a truly disastrous season. Ed & Paul look back on the finals games of the season, unsurprisingly concluding that United need a massive overhaul if the club is to compete once again. Where does Ole Gunnar Solskjaer go from here? There are player ratings and the much coveted Awards, although nobody deserves one.No Question...
