Marko Who?!

#565. It has been one of the more extraordinary weeks at Manchester United, with some almost unbelievable shenanigans happening in the transfer market. Frenkie De Jong still hasn't signed; the club is apparently closed to acquiring Adrien Rabiot; there may be a bid in for Cody Gakpo; and Eric ten…

The Dressing Room is Just a Disaster

#549. United lose to Arsenal. It was inevitable given the state of the team and club right now. Some poor luck, but that's what happens when you're crap, say Ed & Dan this week. We look ahead to United's game against Chelsea on Thursday and, for backers, dive deeper into…

Lacking Aggression (And The Rest)

#545. United return to action after more than two weeks off and were, well, completely crap against Leicester. Ralf Rangnick blamed United's lack of aggressive players.

José's Heritage

#763 José Mourinho was sent off but it was the most chaotic moment of an otherwise low-quality game in the Europa League. United are up to *checks notes* 21st in the league. Top top top stuff Reds. It's one win in seven for Erik ten Hag's side. Ed and Tom…

United Nil

#540. Ed & Dan take stock of the week's international events in which football has played a dark part. We look back on United's scoreless draw with Watford, one of the Premier League's worst sides. The home side took 22 shots, but with just two on target, is it time…

Progress of Sorts

#537. Ed & Wayne discuss United's 2-0 victory over Brighton at Old Trafford. It may be Champions League week around Europe, but the big game of the night was in Manchester(!) Ronaldo's first goal since December, a red card out of nothing, and a late Bruno strike followed. Then we…

The Nightmare Happened

#950 | Ed and Wayne dissect Manchester United’s defeat away at Aston Villa, a match that briefly suggested progress before unraveling in depressingly familiar fashion.

Buzzkill at Brentford

#919 | Ed and Dan pick through United’s latest mess - a limp defeat at Brentford that exposed all of Ruben Amorim’s tactical blind spots. The formation remains fixed, the long-ball obsession continues, and player positioning is all over the shop. It’s starting to feel like the manager is running…

Anger and Injustice

#762 Victory over Brentford and, in the second half at least, a decent performance from United. But once again Erik ten Hag's tactics come under question. Did it really take a sense of injustice to inspire this team, or did the manager make an important half-time adjustment? Ed and Dan…

We Can Be Heroes

#800 | United produced a great backs-against-the-wall performance to beat Arsenal on penalties in the FA Cup. Ruben Amorim's side scored a fine breakaway goal to lead before Arsenal's Andy Madley produced one of the more bizarre refereeing performances of the season, finding a reason to send off the careless…

Yer No Frae Roon Here, Are Ye?

United vs the State

#580. United vs Saudi FC at Old Trafford. That state of modern football. Wearing the national team colours, Newcastle left with a point, but it really should have been victory for Ten Hag's side. United were robbed by the ref and VAR and guilty of missing two huge chances. Ed…
