#564. Ten Hag begins with a defeat. It was predictably awful from United for much of this game. The club has spent the summer avoiding central midfielders like they’re the plague and it showed, with Scott “Eight Completed Passes” and Fred giving ample evidence of that in the first half. Not that anybody bar the owners thinks McFred is a sustainable option. There is so much work to be done. But the game is almost secondary to the negligence the club has shown this summer. 18 players out, three i...

Take your pleasure where you can get it folks. ** No Question About That is listener supported. If you are interested in backing the show and accessing exclusive bonus episodes and ...

#548. For the second time this season Liverpool smash United without breaking a sweat.

#546. United lose to Everton. It was one of the most insipid, pathetic, undignified and indisciplined performances in recent years... and there have been far too many of its kind. In the week that United moved closer to appointing Erik Ten Hag as the next manager, the team demonstrated just how much work there is to be done.
