When is a good result not a good result? Fans would've taken a draw against Spurs before the game but were left feeling deflated.
So this episode we look at the problems when Casemiro isn't on the pitch and argue whether Ugarte is at fault for points lost; we ask whether we need reinforcements in January and is Connor Gallagher the answer?
Plus, should we be worried about Sesko? And is Matthijs De Ligt a future captain?
This week, we dive headfirst into the tactical chaos and transfer conundrums swirling around Manchester United. Have we all collectively forgotten about being linked to Branthwaite? Is Elanga quietly debunking the myth that players thrive after leaving United? We dissect the frustrating draw at Forest, question whether VAR needs an upgrade to catch phantom corners, and ask the big one: Are referees just winging it on vibes? From Amad’s exile at RWB to Dalot’s dwindling stock, we debate who should hold down the flanks, especially with AFCON looming. Plus: Amorim’s curious subs, the Mainoo-Zirkzee dilemma, and a midfield face-off between Anderson, Wharton, and Baleba. And finally, is it worth keeping Casemiro around for one last dance of wisdom? All that and more in a jam-packed episode of tactical hot takes and transfer truths.
Being a United fan has never felt so good (well not in recent times anyway). After the win at Brighton we ask, what has Amorim changed? Do we have enough strength in depth? And are we all still (Carlos) Baliebas?
Plus should Danny Welbeck get a call-up and was Ledley King better than Virgil Van Dijk?
We finally claim our first away win at Anfield in nearly a decade, a result that shifts the mood and reminds the league of our potential.
While Arne Slot turns to excuses, Amorim quietly builds on last week’s progress.
With their collective showing the question now is whether United can carry this momentum into Brighton and finally find consistency.
This week we ask the big questions: do football stats have commitment issues, or do they just ghost you after one missed game? We tackle the international break blues, the never-ending United takeover saga (is it real or just boardroom banter?), and whether Sir Jim Ratcliffe is giving more interviews than United have points. Keane wants Simeone, pundits want blood, and The Athletic needing to divorce The New York Times. We also dive into the Sesko slander. Is he really that bad, or just the latest scapegoat in the United blame game? Plus, our take on the Liverpool clash, the long-ball love affair, and whether one win can rewrite the script. Spoiler: probably not, but we’ll argue about it anyway.
United finally put an easy win on the board against Sunderland, have things clicked or a other false dawn?
The game brought plenty of talking points; is Lammens really the "new Schmeichel", does Mount start ahead of Cunha and just where would we be if Bruno had scored his penalties?
We also get into the rumours of mid-season games in Riyadh...good idea or nah? Did we dodge a Baleba-shaped bullet and could someone come in, in January ?
Last week brought some hope, this week brings frustration as United stumble away at Brentford. Amorim’s faces growing scrutiny, while off the pitch the stadium dream feels distant with no land secured. The wait for stability at the club goes on.
This week, we dive into the chaos, controversy, and character tests surrounding Manchester United. From the HMRC football podcast hilariously exposing player exaggerations to United’s rollercoaster performance against Chelsea, we ask: did the early red card gift us the win, or cheapen it? Casemiro’s fiery exit, Bruno’s milestone moment, and Amad’s social media storm all come under the microscope. We also debate United’s points tally after five games. Are we where we should be? Plus, we look ahead to Brentford, question Amorim’s puzzling substitutions, and revisit the Argentine connection. Hero or villain, legend or liability, Bruno’s legacy is up for discussion. Buckle up, it’s a spicy one.
A derby day loss is so much worse than any other defeat and, predictably, the focus is on where did we go wrong? Should Amorim change his system? How about his personnel? Can we expect anything this season with this midfield?
Plus, should Mainoo be an option or a necessity and what change would you make to the side if you were in charge?
United’s summer business ends with a bold statement: a young goalkeeper signed to usher in the future, and Onana departing after a turbulent spell. We discuss who makes our strongest XI with the focus on balance, efficiency and structure that we believe can withstand the challenges of this season.
Recorded just before the transfer window slammed shut, some takes may already be outdated—but the emotions are still raw. We break down United’s humbling defeat to Grimsby and the ripple effects across the fanbase and dressing room. From Mainoo’s shock loan request to questions about Amorim’s authority and body language, we ask: has the dressing room fractured? We debate the trustworthiness of Onana and Bayindir, the meaning behind Scott Parker’s unexpected praise, and whether 26 shots against Burnley signal tactical growth or just more frustration. Plus, we speculate: will Amorim walk during the international break, or dig in deeper?
Jubilation after the Arsenal game was swiftly followed by disappointment after a poor draw to Fulham (can you have a good draw?).
The game gave us a lot to discuss; is Mount causing a selection headache? Should Sesko be starting and is Amorim trying to fit square pegs in round holes (and is it hurting us?)
Plus, should Bruno entertain Saudi offers the second time around? And does an academy player in the bench really matter?
Premier League football is back!
We fell to Arsenal in the first game of the season, but was it only due to a goalkeeper error or did refereeing decisions add fuel to the fire?
At the same time fresh faces, fine margins and promising gameplay gave reasons to stay hopeful, and maybe, just maybe the transfer window isn't over yet...
From chants of glory to questions of identity, this episode dives deep into the state of Manchester United. Can fans still boast “We’ve won it all” without touching the Europa Conference League? We dissect the Bruno Fernandes dilemma—are United too dependent on him, and was there ever a right time to sell?
We also unravel the mystery behind United’s transfer spending, comparing last season’s buzz to this year’s cautious optimism. Garnacho’s future hangs in the balance—should he be sold, loaned, or unleashed?
Plus, we predict United’s league finish, debate the top five contenders, and name the manager most likely to face the axe first. To wrap it up, we reveal our starting XI for the Arsenal clash. It’s bold, it’s honest, and it’s unapologetically Red.
As the season draws nearer and pre-season draws to a close, there's still so many unanswered questions? Have we improved? Will the signings work? Why does Hojlund have a Mancunian accent?!
We also discuss the Bruno problem...which is part of the midfield problem...which ties into the "why are we buying a striker?" problem; and is Mazraoui in the midfield such a crazy idea?!?!?!?!
Pre-season is in full swing, none of that friendly vs Leeds guff!!
After United ran out 2-1 winners against West Ham, Flowz and Jaymie try to determine what (if anything) a first pre-season under Amorim heralds for the rest of the season. Is Hojlund looking better? Were we right to keep Bruno? Does Dalot getting the No.2 shirt actually mean anything?
We also weigh the pros and cons of Sesko vs Watkins, whether or not it's worth risking it all on Isak (you know you want to!) and ponder whether selling Garnacho to a top team would come back to bite us!
In this jam-packed episode, we kick off with the latest transfer buzz, dissecting what's hot and what's not in the football world. We share our takeaways from United’s preseason clash with Leeds, promising signs or early warning lights? The Mbuemo deal gets our full attention: smart business or another misstep?
We then dive into the curious case of the United board’s holiday negotiations. Is that just modern football or something more worrying? Rashford’s move to Barcelona stirs up strong opinions, especially as we unpack the media reaction and its uncomfortable undertones. Can he thrive abroad, or is a Premier League return inevitable?
And finally, we break down the results of our listener poll: fans say a striker should be United’s priority over a defensive midfielder, do we agree? Tune in for bold opinions, sharp analysis, and a few surprises.
Is there truth to claims of United’s health negligence? While the Mbeumo saga drags on, we ask if squad numbers really matter, break down transfer talk, buy-back & sell on clauses, Onana’s injury, and rank striker possibilities.
United’s financial fog continues to stall transfers, while sidelined players wait in the shadows for their next move, or moment of release. Also, is Rashford being respected or written off? We break it all down
This week, we dive into the spiraling madness of modern football. From the Club World Cup's jaw-dropping prize pot to the unsettling trend of clubs offloading their women’s teams—who’s making these calls, and what’s the real agenda?
We ask hard questions about United’s internal shake-ups: Has Darren Fletcher quietly slid into the U18s? Is Jonny Evans suddenly steering the future of loan deals? And does Tom Heaton’s contract block rising youth talent?
Transfer talks heat up as we weigh the pros and cons of Mbuemo, Watkins, Calvert-Lewin and—yes—Thomas Partey. Plus, we vent about United’s inability to clear out the deadwood.
All that, and our hot take on players being interviewed straight after being subbed—necessary transparency or awkward distraction? Finally, is it ever possible another league could topple the Premier League throne?
