Red Devil Rants: A Manchester United Podcast

This week, Flowz, Jaymie and Supermancunian discuss the growing frustration surrounding Manchester United, from boardroom decisions and interim managerial choices to the unrealistic expectations placed on the club by fans. We also examine the danger posed to the club and future managers by the punditry group dubbed the “Class of 90poo,” - we respect their playing days not their influential opinion...

Manchester United hit the self‑destruct button again as Ruben Amorim’s reign comes to a brutal end, but was it incompetence, inevitability, or a masterclass in getting yourself fired? We break down whether United have just torched two years of planning, or if this was always destined to implode. With Darren Fletcher parachuted in as interim boss, we ask the real questions: is he secretly Sir Alex...

We take a look at the scrappy 1-0 win over Newcastle; has Amorim shown he's got what it takes tactically? Is it acceptable to win the way we did? Did Joshua Zirkzee actually do anything? The January window is just around the corner, so we ask the all-important question "Should we go into the market in January...and for who?" Plus find out our Player of the Month, whether United are about to get a...

A narrow defeat to Villa masked an encouraging display, shaped by a subtle tactical adjustment. In this episode we discuss the implications of that change, the mood around the squad heading into Christmas, and how United can move forward in the short term without Bruno.

The only thing crazier than the 4-4 draw with Bournemouth was everything going on around United this week! Should we be worried about our lack of clean sheets? Was that a one off attacking performance from United? Who should be on the back line?!?! First we tackle tactics leaks from Carrington, then Bruno's big interview; was he right to talk or should he have kept schtum? Did we mistranslate...

Across two fixtures in four days United faced contrasting challenges against West Ham and Wolves, revealing both room for improvement, continued ongoing uncertainties yet some expected positives. With Amorim searching for balance, we turn to the discussion around Kobbie Mainoo, whether he's being overlooked or if the situation is being managed as best it can. The FA cup ‘fix’tures are out - we...

This week we ask the truly pressing questions: would Barcelona and Real Madrid survive the Premier League grind, or just end up mid‑table behind Palace? Is trading 30 years of league pain for a Champions League every decade the ultimate Faustian bargain? We break down United’s win against Palace, compare dueling 3‑4‑3s, and crown United as the league’s new set‑piece FC specialists. Bruno’s assist...

The pod lives up to its name this episode as well pick apart an embarrassing loss to 10-man Everton, there's rants galore! Plus, what the hell happened with Gueye's red card? Is Bruno Fernandes to United what Cristiano Ronaldo is to Portugal (not in a good way) and is David Moyes the new Sam Allardyce?

This week we ask the hard-hitting questions nobody else dares: was Rashford actually impressive for England, has he now forgotten about his ex, us? Should Maguire sneak into the squad ahead of Dan Burn, or is that just football’s version of musical chairs? We debate whether Monday nights are a blessing or a curse for United and whether Joao Gomes is worth raiding Wolves for. Amorim’s first year ge...

When is a good result not a good result? Fans would've taken a draw against Spurs before the game but were left feeling deflated. So this episode we look at the problems when Casemiro isn't on the pitch and argue whether Ugarte is at fault for points lost; we ask whether we need reinforcements in January and is Connor Gallagher the answer? Plus, should we be worried about Sesko? And is Mat...

This week, we dive headfirst into the tactical chaos and transfer conundrums swirling around Manchester United. Have we all collectively forgotten about being linked to Branthwaite? Is Elanga quietly debunking the myth that players thrive after leaving United? We dissect the frustrating draw at Forest, question whether VAR needs an upgrade to catch phantom corners, and ask the big one: Are referee...

Being a United fan has never felt so good (well not in recent times anyway). After the win at Brighton we ask, what has Amorim changed? Do we have enough strength in depth? And are we all still (Carlos) Baliebas? Plus should Danny Welbeck get a call-up and was Ledley King better than Virgil Van Dijk?

We finally claim our first away win at Anfield in nearly a decade, a result that shifts the mood and reminds the league of our potential. While Arne Slot turns to excuses, Amorim quietly builds on last week’s progress. With their collective showing the question now is whether United can carry this momentum into Brighton and finally find consistency.

This week we ask the big questions: do football stats have commitment issues, or do they just ghost you after one missed game? We tackle the international break blues, the never-ending United takeover saga (is it real or just boardroom banter?), and whether Sir Jim Ratcliffe is giving more interviews than United have points. Keane wants Simeone, pundits want blood, and The Athletic needing to divo...

United finally put an easy win on the board against Sunderland, have things clicked or a other false dawn? The game brought plenty of talking points; is Lammens really the "new Schmeichel", does Mount start ahead of Cunha and just where would we be if Bruno had scored his penalties? We also get into the rumours of mid-season games in Riyadh...good idea or nah? Did we dodge a Baleba-shape...

Last week brought some hope, this week brings frustration as United stumble away at Brentford. Amorim’s faces growing scrutiny, while off the pitch the stadium dream feels distant with no land secured. The wait for stability at the club goes on.

This week, we dive into the chaos, controversy, and character tests surrounding Manchester United. From the HMRC football podcast hilariously exposing player exaggerations to United’s rollercoaster performance against Chelsea, we ask: did the early red card gift us the win, or cheapen it? Casemiro’s fiery exit, Bruno’s milestone moment, and Amad’s social media storm all come under the microscope....

A derby day loss is so much worse than any other defeat and, predictably, the focus is on where did we go wrong? Should Amorim change his system? How about his personnel? Can we expect anything this season with this midfield? Plus, should Mainoo be an option or a necessity and what change would you make to the side if you were in charge?

United’s summer business ends with a bold statement: a young goalkeeper signed to usher in the future, and Onana departing after a turbulent spell. We discuss who makes our strongest XI with the focus on balance, efficiency and structure that we believe can withstand the challenges of this season.

Recorded just before the transfer window slammed shut, some takes may already be outdated—but the emotions are still raw. We break down United’s humbling defeat to Grimsby and the ripple effects across the fanbase and dressing room. From Mainoo’s shock loan request to questions about Amorim’s authority and body language, we ask: has the dressing room fractured? We debate the trustworthiness of Ona...

Jubilation after the Arsenal game was swiftly followed by disappointment after a poor draw to Fulham (can you have a good draw?). The game gave us a lot to discuss; is Mount causing a selection headache? Should Sesko be starting and is Amorim trying to fit square pegs in round holes (and is it hurting us?) Plus, should Bruno entertain Saudi offers the second time around? And does an academy player...

Premier League football is back! We fell to Arsenal in the first game of the season, but was it only due to a goalkeeper error or did refereeing decisions add fuel to the fire? At the same time fresh faces, fine margins and promising gameplay gave reasons to stay hopeful, and maybe, just maybe the transfer window isn't over yet...

From chants of glory to questions of identity, this episode dives deep into the state of Manchester United. Can fans still boast “We’ve won it all” without touching the Europa Conference League? We dissect the Bruno Fernandes dilemma—are United too dependent on him, and was there ever a right time to sell? We also unravel the mystery behind United’s transfer spending, comparing last season’s buzz...

As the season draws nearer and pre-season draws to a close, there's still so many unanswered questions? Have we improved? Will the signings work? Why does Hojlund have a Mancunian accent?! We also discuss the Bruno problem...which is part of the midfield problem...which ties into the "why are we buying a striker?" problem; and is Mazraoui in the midfield such a crazy idea?!?!?!?!

Pre-season is in full swing, none of that friendly vs Leeds guff!! After United ran out 2-1 winners against West Ham, Flowz and Jaymie try to determine what (if anything) a first pre-season under Amorim heralds for the rest of the season. Is Hojlund looking better? Were we right to keep Bruno? Does Dalot getting the No.2 shirt actually mean anything? We also weigh the pros and cons of Sesko vs Wat...
