#952 | Manchester United beat Newcastle 1-0 at Old Trafford and nobody left feeling relaxed. Ed and Dharnish break down an exhausting win defined by one moment of quality and a lot of defensive survival. We talk through Patrick Dorgu's stunning volley, a first Premier League goal that settled the game early, before Newcastle spent the rest of the afternoon throwing everything at United. Injuries, makeshift selections, and long spells without the ball forced Ruben Amorim into a far more conservative second-half approach than planned. There's analysis of the changes after half-time and the decision to protect the lead rather than chase more goals. We also zoom out to the bigger picture: what this result says about United's season, Amorim's risk tolerance, and how January squad questions are becoming harder to avoid. 00:00 Introduction 01:59 First-half setup, tempo, and United's early control 05:17 Second-half siege mentality and defensive reshuffle 11:05 Individual performances 18:54 Amorim's in-game management and tactical compromises 36:27 Press conferences, messaging, and narrative 43:44 Wolves next and what this win means for the season 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.

Hello! Mark and Andrew return to discuss Newcastle United's one-nil defeat to Manchester United at Old Trafford. It was a frustrating night in the North West - and one where the Toon Army will feel angry they didn't come away with something. To be honest, they created very little but they dominated possession in the second half and should have hit Man United harder but failed to do so. So why didn't they? We try to pick it apart. ---- You can get up to 60% off your FPRO football skills mat by using our discount code EIBW20 at https://fpro.com Or go to https://FPRO.COM/EIBW20 *** You can also get an exclusive discount on your NORD VPN by clicking here: https://nordvpn.com/toon There's no risk a 30-day money back guarantee #nufc #nufcfans #newcastleunited Learn more about your ad choices.

In the 1990s, businessman Ramm Mylavaganam created a new way to analyse football matches, which would change how managers and coaches saw the game forever. Whilst trying to sell some high-end massage chairs to Derby County, he found their assistant manager Steve McClaren watching hours of footage of opponents, trying to gain an advantage. This gave him an idea – filming every minute of a match and then analysing the footage could be something football clubs want to invest in. His idea would revolutionise the way football clubs looked at data, players and opponents. He's been speaking to Tim O'Callaghan. Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive and testimony. Sporting Witness is for those fascinated by sporting history. We take you to the events that have shaped the sports world through the eyes of the people who were there. For nine minutes, you become a fan in the stands as we take you back in time to examine memorable victories and agonising defeats from all over the world. You'll hear from people who have achieved sporting immortality, or those who were there as incredible sporting moments unfolded.Recent episodes explore the forgotten football Women's World Cup, the plasterer who fought a boxing legend, international football's biggest ever beating and the man who swam the Amazon river. We look at the lives of some of the most famous F1 drivers, tennis players and athletes as well as people who've had ground-breaking impact in their chosen sporting field, including: the most decorated Paralympian, the woman who was the number 1 squash player in the world for nine years, and the first figure skater to wear a hijab. You can learn all about fascinating and surprising stories, such as the tennis player who escaped the Nazis, how a man finally beat a horse in a race, and how the FIFA computer game was created.(Photo: ProZone analysing a game between Reading and Manchester United.

The Manchester United post-mortem usually involves burying Villa's latest trauma and promising not to speak of it again until the next time. Not this time.On this episode of My Old Man Said, Villa are resurrected. Unai Emery finally gets his second win over United, Christmas is officially saved, and Morgan Rogers announces himself properly with two moments that decide a game Villa did not fully control but absolutely deserved to win.We break down the key moment that mattered, Watkins' understated role in the winner, and why Rogers has crossed the line from “promising” to “decisive”. There's an honest look at a midfield that got outworked, a defence that stood firm anyway, and why Villa's ability to grind out one-goal wins is no accident.We also ask the uncomfortable questions. Did United tactically get it right? Did Villa rely on magic rather than control? And why, despite the win, this still felt nervier than it needed to be.Add in Martinez doing Martinez things, Emery losing his mind on the touchline, and the quiet reality that Villa are now ten points clear of United, and you have a night that finally feels like a line drawn under decades of nonsense.The corpse stays buried.

Ben Haines, Luke Edwards and Clinton Morrison discuss the weekend's Premier League action.

#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.
