#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. The conversation widens to youth development and club culture, pushing back on lazy media narratives around players like Kobbie Mainoo and the credibility of the latest transfer chatter, including links to Antoine Semenyo. There's also a deep dive into Bruno Fernandes' recent interview, what it reveals, and what it doesn't. The episode rounds out with a look at the women's team progressing in the Champions League, before a sobering preview of Aston Villa away, a test that exposes United's current fragility and lack of margin for error. 00:00 Introduction and catching up 01:00 Everton, Bournemouth, and the Mainoo debate 02:50 Youth players and what club culture actually means 04:23 Media narratives, punditry, and manufactured noise 12:02 Bruno Fernandes interview analysis 23:53 Women's team and Champions League progress 45:05 Transfers, rumours, and squad depth realities 01:05:36 Aston Villa preview and pressure points 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.

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.

4-4. 8 mål. Det var ikke en kedelig kamp vi var vidner til i mandags, da Manchester United tog imod the Cherrys på Old Trafford. Et dårligt kørende mandskab der ikke havde vundet noget i seks kampe, skulle man da tro man kunne slå, men hvis du troede det ville blive let, så kender du ikke United, der alligevel valgte at gøre det svært for sig selv og som var lige ved at tabe det hele på gulvet kort før slutfløjt. Peter og jeg tager dig igennem kampen og tager fat i de mest spændende elementer fra kampen.Uden for banen sker der også ting og sager, Kobbie Mainoos bror skaber som en anden Garnacho-broder omtale i pressen med en form for offentlig optræden, Afcon starter inden længe og det betyder at vi skal klare os uden en række spillere indtil d. midt januar. Bruno Fernandes har givet et interview der kan få nogle af os fans et lille gys i maven og så skal vi kigge frem mod weekendens kamp hvor Aston Villa gæster os søndag d. 21 december kl 17:30 på Villa Park.06:03 Cherries-nedtakt32:36 FREE MAINOO 45:02 Villa-optakt

It's been a huge weekend of football, especially if you're a Liverpool fan. Mohamed Salah gave a stunning interview after Liverpool's draw with Leeds, claiming he has “no relationship” with Arne Slot, he's “earned the right to play,” and that he's been “thrown under the bus.” Has Salah's Liverpool career reached breaking point?Arsenal suffered a late 2-1 defeat at Villa Park, allowing Manchester City to close the gap at the top to just two points. Is Arsenal's away form becoming a real issue? And are they starting to feel the pressure from Manchester City?Manchester United returned to winning ways with a 4-1 victory over Wolves, but the Kobbie Mainoo situation continues to be a problem. With reports that he wants to leave in January to get more playing time, how big a problem could this become for United?The boys also do a Premier League All-Time XI Draft, as well as debating the best player at every Premier League club right now.Adam, Rory, Buvey and James break it all down in the latest episode of The Club.

#937 | Ed and Wayne Barton try to stay warm, awake, and vaguely optimistic. There's chat about winter routines, sleepless nights, and how United fans could probably use a nap themselves after the latest couple of matches. Wayne talks about his new book Manchester United: After Munich - an emotional deep dive into the club's recovery years, the players who carried the torch, and the scars that never quite healed. From there, it's onto a far brighter story: Manchester United Women beating PSG in the Champions League, a result that feels like a genuine milestone. Then it's time to talk about the men's team - and some familiar issues. The lads discuss January transfer gossip, squad issues, and the board's plans.

#922 | Ed and Dan dissect Manchester United's 2–0 win over Sunderland - a performance that offered relief, if not revelation. There's praise for Senne Lemmens' clean sheet, but the discussion quickly turns to Amorim's tactical rigidity, and the sustainability of the long-ball plan. Amad Diallo's case for more minutes grows louder, there's competition for a place between Mason Mount and Matteus Cunha. The conversation also touches on Leny Yoro's defensive integration, Kobbie Mainoo's long-term role, and why even in victory, United's football feels low-percentage. Plus: the youth team keeps winning, United Women continue to impress, and there's a preview of the trip to Anfield - where the real test of progress begins.

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...

Ruben Amorim deployed Kobbie Mainoo in one of the number ten positions against FCSB as Manchester United won comfortably to ease themselves through to the last 16 of this year's UEFA Europa League. A "rotated" starting XI looked like a bit of a gamble from the Portuguese manager, but a cautious approach initially followed by the introduction of more creative players at the break really paid off. The draw for the last 16 will take place later in February with four potential opponents; Galatasaray, AZ Alkmaar, Real Sociedad, or FC Midtjylland.

Ruben Amorim deployed Kobbie Mainoo in one of the number ten positions against FCSB as Manchester United won comfortably to ease themselves through to the last 16 of this year's UEFA Europa League.A "rotated" starting XI looked like a bit of a gamble from the Portuguese manager, but a cautious approach initially followed by the introduction of more creative players at the break really paid off. The draw for the last 16 will take place later in February with four potential opponents; Galatasaray, AZ Alkmaar, Real Sociedad, or FC Midtjylland.There's at least one transfer in the offing, but even that might be held up. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace are next up in the Premier League, and United's recent record against them does not make for pretty reading. Do they qualify as a bogey team? Hosted on Acast.

A committed showing in an entertaining contest at the league leaders; how refreshing was that! It was certainly a pleasant surprise relative to our gloomy expectations.The return of Ugarte and Mainoo helped midfield, as did that of a resurgent Bruno Fernandes, but there were positive performances across the defence, from Diogo Dalot against Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Garnacho off the bench as well. The only big question was why they haven't been able to produce this before now.Marcus Rashford was not included in the squad; an expected move after Ruben Amorim said his training had been limited by illness, but Laurie shed a little light on the wider situation for Rashford with an article earlier in the weekend.

Man Utd did Amadness! Join Tosin, Tomi, and Imani as they dissect the derby win over a confidence devoid Man City. Amad, De Ligt, Mainoo and Amorim all got their roses, and we took some time to discuss pretty privilege. A win does a lot, huh? Tap in!
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. It's Ranks!
