Podcast appearances and mentions of ian irving

In this episode of "An Echo of Glory," I had the pleasure of welcoming back Ian Irving from the "Talk of the Devils" podcast for his fourth appearance this season. We delved into the current mood surrounding Manchester United, both from the fans' perspective and within the club itself. Despite a disappointing season, there's a sense of determination to end on a high note, especially with the upcoming Europa League final against Tottenham Hotspur. Ian shared insights from his recent visit to the club during their pre-final media day, highlighting the upbeat atmosphere despite the season's struggles. We discussed the challenges both teams face, particularly with injuries to key players like Matthijs de Ligt for United and James Maddison for Spurs. The conversation also touched on the importance of Champions League qualification for United, not just for prestige but for financial stability and future rebuilding under Ruben Amerin. We explored the contrasting performances of United in the Premier League versus their impressive run in Europe, where they've remained unbeaten. Ian emphasized the pivotal role of Bruno Fernandes and the potential impact of Ahmad Diallo, especially as a game-changer off the bench. As we wrapped up, Ian predicted a United victory in the final, with Ahmad playing a decisive role. While I hope for a different outcome, it was great to get Ian's perspective and share a detailed preview of what promises to be an exciting match. Thanks for tuning in, and we'll catch up with Ian again next season!

Ian Irving might have been glad of a day off, very glad indeed, were it not for Amad's late show at Old Trafford on Thursday night. He became Manchester United's second youngest hat-trickster after Wayne Rooney and their first since Cristiano Ronaldo. While the 22 year-old Ivorian has a long way to achieve the stature of those two players, he is well on his way to becoming a cult hero and is a shining light at a time when things are still not going to plan; the first 75 minutes of this game saw Southampton, yes Southampton, good value for a one-nil advantage. Brighton are next and, while they got their first win in nine Premier League games at Ipswich, they have a very good record against United in recent times. Meanwhile, on the transfer front, no news is both good news and bad news.

Fifteen years ago, Bournemouth were in the fourth division, or League Two in the parlance of the youth. Now they're sixth in the Premier League and we're almost at the halfway stage. Out there somewhere is a kid who started supporting them in 2009 and that kid must think that life is always like this. I don't know whether to envy him or pity him. You can pity Lazio. They got done 6-0 at home by Internazionale. And you can pity Trabzonspor, who conceded a 98th minute winner to Galatasaray. Actually, Jose Mourinho will probably be more bothered by that one. We've also got the latest on Wolves and Southampton as they seek to find new managers. And we check in with the boys from the Talk of the Devils podcast as they look ahead to a very big cup tie this week.  Presenter: Iain Macintosh With: Jacob Tanswell, Laurie Whitwell, Ian Irving, Carl Anka and David Ornstein Producer: Si Watts Learn more about your ad choices.

We bring you some midnight madness (thanks Juls) ahead of the final Double Gameweek of the season.

It may be Easter, but it feels a lot like a Monday as Ian Irving hosts Andy Mitten and Carl Anka to "pick over the carcass" of Saturday night's performance at Brentford.Such was the home side's dominance, it's easy to forget this finished a draw. But, after Mason Mount's late goal was cancelled out, it felt like a defeat, with comparisons even drawn to the horror show at the same venue last season.What price a win at Chelsea, then, and how will this squad look next season, with question marks over so many of the personnel in midfield and defence?

Ian Irving is on great form, unlike last time, and the whole team are feeling pretty upbeat about Manchester United's prospects going into the new year.

But, as we said, we are an optimistic lot, and we're expecting at least six points over Christmas, plenty of improvement from the men in 2024, and for newly crowned SPOTY Mary Earps to tell Arsenal what she told Jenni Hermoso after that penalty.

Ian Irving and Andy Mitten are feeling a little tender this Monday morning. Fortunately, it's not because of another chastening defeat at Anfield! Laurie Whitwell completes the trio as we dissect a resolute defensive performance from Erik Ten Hag's Manchester United, albeit one with very little attacking threat. Given recent results, especially those at Liverpool, this can be viewed as a step in the right direction, but the next few steps are even more important for the future of this team and this manager.
