#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 Emi...

#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 fallout ...

#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 the w...

#319. Victory for José Mourinho's side against Tottenham, so why was the United manager so animated post-match? Ed & Paul look back on a crucial victory at Old Trafford, together with games against Benfica, Swansea City and Huddersfield. Also on this week's pod, a look ahead to Champions League action on Tuesday night and United's game with Chelsea at the weekend. No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and all good podcas...

#318. José Mourinho's side turned up at Anfield, parked the bus, and achieved precisely one shot on target for the second season in succession. Mourinho was delighted, Ed & Paul were not impressed. On this week's pod, all the action from Anfield reviewed, listener questions, and a look ahead to games against Benfica and Huddersfield Town No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and all good podcast apps. We really appreciat...

#317. It's international week, which means football hipsters Ed & Paul have been busy watching Iceland vs Kosovo, Syria vs Australia, and Panama vs Costa Rica. Also on the show this week, there are *a lot* of listener questions - not that the show...

#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 week t...

#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. The la...

#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 next we...

#313. Ed & Paul look back at the international bre...well, they think very briefly about looking back at the international break, take as many listener questions as they could possibly get into the show and preview United's trip to Stoke. They break...

#312. Only 2-0? Mourinho out! No, but seriously, Ed & Paul look back on United's win over Leicester, exactly the kind of game the team would have drawn last season, discuss the Return of the Zlat, Rooney's international retirement and take a lot of...

#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...

#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 preview o...

#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. It was a really entertaining chat, highlighting just how much United, and Sir Alex Ferguson in particular, have dominated that particular story. No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and all good podcast apps. ...

#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. They talk the early days of United Rant, Beckham, Giggs and Andy Tate, accompanied by the sounds of Handsworth Park, where the interview was recorded. No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and all good podcast ap...

#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. New this season: Shithousery of the Season! Thank you for listening over the past year....

#304. This week's show focuses on the Europa League final. Much like the team, Ed & Paul have been phoning in recent shows in order to ensure full fitness for this special length preview of Wednesday's game. The pod also includes an interview with...

#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 Lea...

#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 ques...

#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 Ab...

#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 leg...

#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 at ...
