Coach and Tomi chop it up over Utd's 2-1 loss to Aston Villa, they cover various subjects such as:- Another good performance (mostly) but nothing to show for it - Manuel Ugarte- Bruno injury concerns - How Utd were able to perform well despite not getting the points- Kobbie Mainoo + much more.Tap In!

Suj and James review another dramatic weekend of football in the Premier League that included a brilliant encounter at St James's Park as Chelsea earned a hard earned point from two down, Liverpool just about getting over the line against 9 man Tottenham, Arsenal staying top for Christmas after victory at Everton, Leeds scoring four against Crystal Palace and Aston Villa maintained their outstanding winning run against Manchester United. A Manchester United for whom Bruno Fernandes was replaced at half time with a hamstring problem, and for owners that's a headache they weren't preparing for. Many owners and non owners will now likely chase the in-demand Hugo Ekitike who scored again, and now looks secure for minutes following a serious looking injury to Alexander Isak. He may even be worth trusting with the armband this week But there's plenty of other assets in demand too, with discussion featuring the likes of Matheus Cunha, Declan Rice and Jarrod Bowen. And there's others who are not, such as Igor Thiago who hasn't registered a shot in Brentford's last two outings against Leeds and hapless Wolves. Plus, coverage of defensive options, enablers, and Suj has been on tilt in FPL, Tottenham just have James fully tilted.

Alexander Isak's tough start to life at Liverpool went from bad to worse at the weekend as he suffered what's believed to be a broken leg as he scored what proved to be the winner against Spurs. Elsewhere in a busy weekend, Aston Villa continued their fantastic run by beating Manchester United at home, keeping them alongside Man City in the pack chasing Arsenal. In the North East, Newcastle took a 2-0 lead at home to Chelsea before suffering a spirited comeback from the Blues, but it was the officiating that stole the headlines, with the Geordies denied a penalty and a red card during an entertaining game. All that gets discussed as well as Niall, Marley and Joel throwing their pet peeves into the sea on today's FSD.

Ben Haines, Luke Edwards and Clinton Morrison discuss the weekend's Premier League action. After Morgan Rogers scored another brace for Aston Villa in their 2-1 win over Manchester United, is he one of the most in-form players in the league right now? And how fearful should Manchester United fans be after Bruno Fernandes left the field at half time due to injury? In the weekend's other matches, they discuss whether Arsenal's lack of convincing wins should be concerning, and one of the games of the season – Newcastle v Chelsea. Should there have been a penalty? Plus, what does Alexander Isak's injury mean for Liverpool, and how concerning is Tottenham's discipline? And at the bottom of the table, is there any way back for Rob Edwards' Wolves?TIME CODES:02:25 – Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers 10:55 – Manchester United 17:05 – Arsenal 28:20 – Newcastle v Chelsea 40:30 – Tottenham v Liverpool 48:50 – Manchester City and Erling Haaland 52:00 – Relegation Picture

#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. A strong first half gave way to defensive errors, mounting absences, and an untimely injury to Bruno Fernandes, leaving Ruben Amorim staring at another damaging afternoon. They assess what United did well, where the team failed, and how much responsibility sits with execution versus selection. The discussion turns to injuries and squad depth, the ongoing reliance on youth, and whether Amorim's decision-making shows conviction or caution. With a difficult run of fixtures ahead, the key question hangs over the episode: does Amorim respond by doubling down on control and safety, or does he finally take the risks this squad appears to demand? 00:00 Introduction and welcome 01:19 Positives and negatives from Villa 02:06 Breaking down the performance 03:58 Injuries and their wider impact 09:06 Youth players and selection calls 15:40 Managerial scrutiny and short-term outlook 29:38 Historical parallels and risk appetite 33:32 Amorim's growing list of challenges 35:24 Tactical tweaks and in-game responses 38:40 The fixtures ahead and what they demand 53:03 Nepo babies in football 59:40 Final thoughts If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

Aston Villa arrive at Christmas in form, winning ugly, and climbing quietly. The league table looks healthy. The mood should be festive. And yet Manchester United turn up again, dragging decades of baggage with them.On this week's My Old Man Said, we ask the only question that matters. Is this finally an Emery Christmas, or are Villa about to be visited once more by the ghosts of United past?We strip away the noise around title talk, dig into why Villa still cannot relax against United, and question whether this run of one-goal wins signals control or simply survival. There is Europa League progress, Basel reflections, United's injuries and absences, and the uncomfortable truth that history keeps intruding no matter how poor they look on paper.No hype. No festive false comfort. Just a clear-eyed look at where Villa really are and what beating United now would actually mean.Also, we hear the first track on the Lovers Walk Unlimited Christmas EPListen here to A Holte End Christmas EP UTVGET AD-FREE SHOWS and JOIN MATCH CLUBGet ad-free shows and extra shows, and join My Old Man Said's 24/7 Villa community, Match Club.For more details and to become a member, click here: Become a MOMS MemberJoin the show's listener facebook group The Mad Few.Credits:David Michael - @myoldmansaid Chris Budd - @BUDD_musicPhillip Shaw - @prsgameMy Old Man Said - https://www.myoldmansaid.comThis Podcast has been created and uploaded by My Old Man Said.

Szoboszlai Dominik a Brighton ellen kisebb sérülést szedett össze, így nem biztos, hogy pályán lehet a Spurs ellen. Hogy milyen a Szoboszlai nélküli Liverpool, azt idén még nem láthattuk, azt viszont hétről-hétre látjuk, hogy a Tottenham Thomas Frankkal mennyire gyenge teljesítményt nyújt. Top6-os rangadó ide vagy oda, a Liverpool számára minden adott, hogy folytassák az elmúlt hetek jó szériáját.A Manchester United az Afrika-kupára elutazó Mbeumo és Amad, illetve az eltiltott Casemiro nélkül abban reménykedhet, hogy az Aston Villa sorozata fordul meg. Emeryéktől hétről-hétre várjuk a bezuhanást - Bence meg abban reménykedik, hogy ezt megkapja szülinapi ajándékként. A Leipzig és a Leverkusen csatája egy igazi hipszter kedvenc lehet a hétvégéről, a Villarreal és a Barcelona viszont szinte garantáltan olyan meccs lesz, amit mindenki szívesen néz majd. Ez tehát az ünnepi kínálat az év utolsó PREurópa Leakjében!(00:00) Szülinapi beköszönés

#948 | Ed and Tom take stock of where Manchester United really are, amid fitness problems that refuse to clear and tactical compromises that keep piling up. They break down recent performances against Everton and Bournemouth, questioning selection calls, structure, and how much latitude the manager still has to solve problems internally.

Patrick and Neel dig into the January window by skipping the obvious links and focusing on moves that actually make sense for both side. They break down Tottenham's midfield issues and make the case for Raphael Onyedika and explain why Aston Villa should capitalize on their hot run with a smarter attacking midfielder like Romano Schmid. Then they look at Flamengo and what makes Felipe Luis the perfect heir to Diego Simeone at Atletico Madrid. The episode wraps with rapid-fire takes on Kobbie Mainoo to Napoli, Milan's striker search, and why some January deals are better left undone.

#947 | Ed and Dan react to a breathless, chaotic 4–4 draw that managed to be both exhilarating and deeply exposing. They break down United's aggressive pressing, fluid attacking movement, and how the side functioned without a recognised striker, while also confronting the defensive fragility that turned control into volatility. The discussion moves through tactical trade-offs, shape-shifting between a back three and a back four, and the consequences of those choices under pressure. Individual performances are assessed in detail, including Amad's influence, Bruno Fernandes' authority, and Casemiro's role. There's also scrutiny of managerial decisions, the impact of Afcon, and what this match says about the limits of flexibility versus structure. The episode closes by looking ahead to Aston Villa, weighing likely selections, priorities, and how much adjustment this squad can realistically absorb. 00:00 First impressions from a chaotic 4–4
