#809 | Defeat to Wolves at home - a 15th Premier League loss of the season. Pre-season vibes. Six starting players 22 or under. There wasn't the intensity or passion of United's victory over Lyon in midweek, nor could we expect there to be. Ruben Amorim rested most of his key players with all eyes on that May 1st game against Athletic Bilbao. Ed and Tom review a match that was dominated by context.
#806 | Ed and Tom analyse United's match against Lyon in France. Emotions are high as they discuss the disappointing performance of Andre Onana, who has been at fault for numerous goals this season. The analysis covers the whole team's shortcomings, including issues in attack and defense, the pressures on young players like Garnacho and Hojlund. Yet, United left France with a draw and should complete the job next week. Finally, there's a look ahead to the game against Newcastle on Sunday.

Rasmus Hojlund and Alejandro Garnacho were back on the scoresheet for Manchester United as Ruben Amorim's side made easy work of Leicester City. Managed by United legend and recent interim manager, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Leicester aren't the stiffest test in the Premier League right now, but there are real signs of progress after a difficult spell. Even the news of a ticket price rise was met with relatively good humour as it was less than some had feared. We discuss the ins and outs of that, the international break, and our recent live show at London's Leicester Square Theatre. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's time for The Truth!Dougie's back in business with Sam after a well-earned week off and it's a return with a bang as we turn our attention to Manchester United - always a behemoth of a topic, who are currently seemingly locked inside a battle with themselves. After a dreary start to 2025, questions are being asked of Ruben Amorim's stewardship, and if United have actually got worse since he took over. Now, to be fair, Amorim himself said when he took the job that things were going to get worse before they got better, but much of the fanbase was expecting more of an uptick in form five months in than what we've seen on the pitch, especially after defeat to Fulham in the FA Cup wiped out one of the two remaining options that United had for silverware this campaign. But is that criticism fair? Amorim has struggled to get this squad ticking, but there are mitigating factors - the players are taking some time to adapt to his system (those that can), whilst the most impactful players in this squad have been struck down by injuries just as things were taking an upturn for them. Is that enough though, to absolve him of fault? Should United ride out this storm, trust in their new manager and try to build something long term? Or have we already seen enough to suggest that this isn't going to work and that a change is needed before United get bogged down in another cycle not going anywhere? Well, The Truth is somewhere in the middle...

#776 | United beat Viktoria Plzeň eventually but not before an hour of some of the dullest football you've ever seen had passed. It was a disjointed United side unable to fashion good chances from lots of possession, going away yet another comical goal. And then came all the substitutions on the hour mark and a spectacular turnaround.

The Czech town of Plzen created a special beer to celebrate the visit of Manchester United, but after Andre Onana sold Matthijs De Ligt short, the Reds needed a Rasmus Hojlund double to round off the night. After a turgid first half Hojlund, along with Ruben Amorim's other substitutes, injected pace and purpose bringing United level almost immediately and sealing the win late on. To win away in Europe for the first time since March 2023 puts another positive spin on Sunday's derby at the Etihad Stadium against an ailing City side... but we're not getting carried away!

It's time for The Truth!With Ruben Amorim set to take the reins at Manchester United this weekend, Sam and Dougie dig into the future of Marcus Rashford - whether he fits into the new system that Amorim is likely to play at Old Trafford and if he can utilise a fresh start to revitalise a career that feels like it's in limbo right now. Whilst Rashford's last year or so has been somewhat underwhelming, there is also a feeling that he has been playing in a team that has been far less than its component parts, and that without a functioning system around him, Rashford is one of the players who struggles to make an impact the most. That should change under Amorim - given what he has achieved at Sporting - but without an out-and-out winger in his preferred 3-4-2-1 system, where does Rashford fit best? As one of the floating 10s behind the striker? Or as an out-and-out No 9 tasked with running the channels and getting in behind opposition defences? Can United's homegrown superstar rekindle his spark under his new manager? Or could he get stuck in football purgatory - trapped by high wages and a sky-high-fee, but without any of the interest to genuinely find a new home?The Truth is somewhere in the middle...

Hello Rank Squad!We're dialling in today on the big news that broke this week - Manchester United's sacking of Erik ten Hag and their approach to replace him with Sporting CP's Rúben Amorim - which at the time of recording looks very close to being completed. First of all, Dean walks us through the ins and outs of how the Manchester United backroom came to the conclusion that they were going to part ways with Ten Hag, and why it happened at this point; before detailing their approach for Amorim and how they were able to move so swiftly and efficiently in securing their first-choice target. Then, in Part Two, Jack takes over to talk about what Amorim brings to the table, both on a personal level and from a tactical perspective. We discuss the nature of Sporting when he took over there, and how he has form for turning around a huge club which is on its knees, as well as his communication mastery and how he has got a disparate group of players to buy into his methods and turned Sporting from also-rans to the dominant force in Portuguese football. There's also a chat around how his formation and ideology maps onto this current Manchester United squad - the players who will thrive in Amorim's 3-4-2-1 and those who might struggle for minutes, as well as some thoughts about problem areas which United will probably have to look to tackle in the January transfer market or the summer. Finally, in Part Three, we talk a little bit about Monday's Ballon d'Or trophy, which was awarded to Rodri of Manchester City and Spain. There was quite a fallout from his victory, including Real Madrid somewhat throwing their toys out of the pram about the fact that Vinicius Jr didn't win it, so we give our thoughts on the entire unsavoury scene.

The mood is "off the floor" after Rasmus Hojlund scored the winning goal in a game at Old Trafford against "decent Premier League side" Brentford. In fact, all the 'big' attacking players contributed, which is great news. It could be important news as well, with a win in Europe long overdue and a trip to Istanbul up next. Jose Mourinho is not the only familiar face in the Fenerbahce camp, but they are a club with worries that might sound familiar to Manchester United fans as well. Learn more about your ad choices.

Edge of the Box, in association with UltimateFan, returns as Dan Bardell, George Elek and Sam Tighe preview the weekend's standout Premier League tie.It's the Manchester Derby on Sunday afternoon as Manchester United look to keep their slim Champions League chances alive. United booked their spot in the next round of the FA Cup in midweek but didn't look wholly convincing in their 1-0 win at Nottingham Forest, which comes off the back of a 2-1 loss to Fulham last time out.Conversely, Manchester City were rampant in the FA Cup on Tuesday night as Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne ran the show at Luton. Haaland netted five times at Kenilworth Road in the week to warm up for Sunday's showdown at the Etihad Stadium.The panel discuss Ten Hag in more detail and ponder what 'The Bigger Picture' is for United under the Dutchman. United will be without Rasmus Hojlund once more for this one with the Danish striker previously in fine form prior to injury. How much of a blow is the absence of the young forward be for Ten Hag's side against City? Similarly, Luke Shaw's unavailability is also a huge blow for the red side of Manchester.Dan, George and Sam also discuss whether Antony is the worst Premier League signing of all time. The big-money Brazilian started the defeat to Fulham on the bench, this despite the absence of Hojlund, with teenager Omari Forson preferred on the right.All that and more is discussed on Edge of the Box this week.In association with sponsors UltimateFan, new users can gain 500 bonus coins when they sign up with the code TN1420.

Recorded post-match at Old Trafford: Ian Irving, Andy Mitten, and Carl Anka are revelling in the slightly unfamiliar feeling of a comfortable win at home. What's more, it came against a pretty good West Ham team and, by a three goal margin. Birthday boy Rasmus Hojlund got the scoring underway with the only goal of a "pleasantly boring" first half, and Alejandro Garnacho notched twice in the second period with a cheeky nod to Mohammed Kudus... or was it Ronaldo?! The only dark cloud on the day was Lisandro Martinez's knee injury; we're hoping it's not as serious as the player's reaction might suggest. *** • Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at shopify.com/reddevils Learn more about your ad choices.
