Talking Devils - A Manchester United Podcast

It's a tumultuous time. Ruben Amorim says he one day wants to leave then stay, which is not the sort of stability we need, but sums up the mood as Real Betis have a bid accepted, agree terms with Antony, then pull out. On this day in 1930, Pongo causes a stench at Old Trafford that lasts the full season. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hours after water was poured on the Kobbie rumours by all sources connected, the Athletic have run a feature saying Kobbie could entertain talk of a move after all. I run through, at length, why I feel that is a nightmare scenario. Real Betis issued an ultimatum, Antwerp try and raise the praise, and United play at Grimsby tonight, leading to a great story from 1946, if you'll indulge. Hosted on A...

Wayne Barton is joined by Tony Bryson and Mike Pieri to run the rule over the draw with Fulham last week and preview the forthcoming game against Burnley. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After being told he is battling for his place in the team with Bruno Fernandes, who is already shoehorned into an ill-fitting position just to get him in, Kobbie Mainoo is apparently open to offers of a departure. Which would break the heart of this humble podcaster. Garnacho, Sancho and Antony, meanwhile, seem quite happy to drag their own departures out until the last minute. Hosted on Acast. Se...

United push on with talks to sign Senne Lammens, while Ruben Amorim suggests there may be a way back for the so-called bomb squad - though that might be what you would expect him to say. On this day, we have one player who narrowly escaped serious injury and one who came back from serious injury. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

No news is... not exactly good news, with United working to get some bodies out of the door before the deadline closes. There are some staff changes, and on this day, in 1999, the shortest Manchester United Premier League career in history happened. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Predictably, in the wake of a goalkeeper howler, every single goalkeeper who has been linked to United over the summer finds themselves back in the rumour mill this morning. United are linked with a move for Adam Wharton but are likely to hold off on a midfielder now. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

United's Premier League campaign kicks off today against Arsenal. You might be expecting Michael Knighton juggling a ball before kick off like he did in 1989, but the day has brought something equally ludicrous with it with the rumoured return of David De Gea. Surely not. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A week ago it seemed as though United might get both Carlos Baleba and Gianluigi Donnarumma. Now it looks as though they'll get neither. United's Women's team make a smart signing and the season begins today for Darren Fletcher's Under 18s. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A little excitement yesterday as a Cameroonian outlet announced the completion of Carlos Baleba's transfer to Manchester United... it was the same source which broke confirmation of Baleba's compatriot, Andre Onana, making the same move two years ago... however, not all was as it seems. Roma have made an offer for Jadon Sancho. We'll wait and see if all is as it seems there. On our Thursday night...
