The last ever FA Cup semifinal replay was played on Wednesday the 14th April 1999. It turned out to be one of the greatest games in recent history as the 10 men of Manchester United edged the holders Arsenal 2-1 after extra-time with substitute Ryan Giggs scoring one of the most sensational goals of modern times to win it. United went onto win the treble. ESPN's Mark Ogden was working as a young journalist at the time and joins Teddy to reminisce about the game and the era - when Arsene Wenger's Arsenal and Sir Alex Ferguson's United were slugging it out for domination.

En la edición de hoy del Radar Empresarial, revisamos los resultados financieros del primer trimestre del Manchester United, que arrojan unas pérdidas de 3,16 libras por acción, muy por debajo de las previsiones del mercado, que esperaba un beneficio de 0,07 libras. Los ingresos del club alcanzaron los 164 millones de libras, una cifra que se sitúa ligeramente por debajo de las expectativas de los analistas. En los últimos tres meses, el valor de sus acciones ha caído más de un 5%, reflejando en la bolsa el mal momento deportivo que atraviesa la institución. A la prolongada crisis de resultados se suman serios problemas económicos: el club arrastra una deuda cercana a los 875 millones de euros. A diferencia de otras compañías, como NVIDIA o Apple, que se evalúan en función de sus productos, en este caso los principales activos son los jugadores. Sin embargo, en los últimos diez años, el club ha realizado inversiones millonarias en fichajes que no han generado beneficios ni deportivos ni económicos. La falta de éxitos en torneos nacionales e internacionales ha provocado la pérdida de importantes ingresos por competiciones y patrocinadores. Este declive sostenido tiene un nombre claro: la familia Glazer. Los hermanos Joel y Avram Glazer adquirieron el club en 2005 por 790 millones de libras, utilizando una técnica financiera arriesgada llamada “Leveraged Buyout”, que les permitió endeudar al propio club para completar la compra. A pesar de que los primeros años tras la compra fueron exitosos —con títulos de liga y una Champions League en 2008—, la marcha de Sir Alex Ferguson marcó el inicio de un largo periodo de inestabilidad. Los aficionados han mostrado su descontento ante la falta de transparencia financiera, sumado a resultados mediocres en el campo. Exjugadores históricos como Rio Ferdinand también han expresado públicamente su malestar. Tras años de especulación, el empresario británico Sir James Ratcliffe, propietario del grupo Ineos, adquirió recientemente el 25% del club por 1.250 millones de libras, intentando calmar los ánimos y reconstruir la institución. Ratcliffe, considerado el hombre más rico del Reino Unido, pidió paciencia a los seguidores del equipo y defendió al entrenador Rubén Amorim, señalando que aún no contaba con una plantilla sólida. Aun así, los resultados siguen sin mejorar: el equipo sólo ha ganado uno de sus últimos cuatro partidos, mientras la deuda sigue en aumento. Esta temporada se han invertido más de 200 millones de libras en nuevos fichajes, pero en contraste, el club ha realizado más de 450 despidos y ha reducido beneficios para los empleados, incluyendo la eliminación de comidas completas, que han sido reemplazadas por sopas y bocadillos como único almuerzo.

On this episode, Patrick and Ted open with the Manchester Derby as City defeat United 3–0, but who should really be worried? Jeremy Doku delivers his best performance, yet City's problems remain while United's defensive structure continues to collapse. They then move on to Juventus' 4–3 win over Inter in a Serie A thriller, Arsenal's more direct style with Zubimendi, Eze, and Gyökeres, and Aston Villa's struggles under Unai Emery. The conversation shifts to the importance of set pieces, how clubs train them, and how to get coaches to buy in. Finally, Hansi Flick warns about overplaying Lamine Yamal, the need to protect young players, and bold ideas for football's rules and competitions close out the episode.

The company was founded in San Diego, California in the 1950s and the secret formula used in WD-40 was devised by a team working on missile maintenance in the aerospace industry.

#877 | Ed and Wayne skip the usual NQAT awards ceremony and dive into the end-of-season mailbag instead. Bruno Fernandes was Player of the Year, obviously. THat's all. Answering questions from listeners, they discuss the club's financial struggle and speculate about the complexities of offloading unwanted players. Concerns over failed transfers, management inefficiencies, and the club's declining global brand are also highlighted. Questions also dive into historical failures in recruitment and ponder the worst players signed by Sir Alex Ferguson. Also, there's a strangely long discussion about who would win a wheelbarrow race among footballing brothers.

In June 2004, Jose Mourinho made headlines around the world by claiming ‘I think I'm a special one' at his unveiling as Chelsea manager. Just under a year later, he lifted the Premier League trophy for the first time, delivering Chelsea their first league title in 50 years. Robert Huth was part of the Chelsea defence that conceded only 15 goals in the league that season – and he joins Mark Chapman, Chris Sutton and Rory Smith 20 years later to reflect on an incredible achievement. They look back on Jose Mourinho's management style – what was it like to be coached by him? Can he be credited with bringing the 4-3-3 to English football? Hear from midfielder Claude Makelele on his role within the team and from Sir Alex Ferguson on his rivalry with Jose Mourinho. They also discuss what nearly became a domestic treble for Mourinho in his first year in English football, and remember one of the Premier League's most memorable seasons.
