#701. United secure a comfortable victory over David Moyes' West Ham at Old Trafford. Is this finally the turning point?

Ed & Dan discuss all the fallout. For backers, we talk about the players most likely to leave th...

#700. It's normally the worst game of the season, but somehow United v Wolves turned into a barnstormer, with Kobbie Mainoo enforcing his growing reputation as one of the finest young players in the country.

If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing exclusive bonus episodes, c...

#686. Defeat at Newcastle in another sobering match for United and manager Erik ten Hag. This wasn't just another Premier League loss, but a 1-0 battering.
