The mood is "off the floor" after Rasmus Hojlund scored the winning goal in a game at Old Trafford against "decent Premier League side" Brentford. In fact, all the 'big' attacking players contributed, which is great news. It could be important news as well, with a win in Europe long overdue and a trip to Istanbul up next. Jose Mourinho is not the o…

Manchester United have decided to terminate the contract of a manager, but it's not the current one. Sir Alex Ferguson's role as a paid ambassador for the club will come to an end this summer, and it's a decision which has provoked a strong reaction, especially from some notable former players. Fans seem mixed, and our panel can certainly see both …

Our hosts return to the podcave and get stuck in with their review of, MUDSLIDE. Alex and Will discuss the blend of classic monster movie and Alfred Hitchcock vibes in this episode. Highlighting the subway train and the laboratory sequences as the stand outs, as well as Ron Perlman's performance as Clayface. Our hosts also notice that if Batman did…

Jonny Evans rolled back the years to provide Manchester United's defence with a vintage performance and a clean sheet. Sadly, Ten Hag's attackers couldn't find the net again. The game was goalless, and provided very little by way of entertainment or clues as to the future of Erik Ten Hag. Who better to put a spring in our steps (especially Andy, we…

We often assume that stress and anxiety are the price we pay for success. Yet these feelings can lead to burnout and self-doubt, two debilitating outcomes that can get in the way of the very achievements we’re striving for.This is a pattern psychologist Mary Anderson often sees in her high-achieving clients: their very success has left them so scar…

There's a hint of crazed laughter in the voices of Ian Irving, Carl Anka, Andy Mitten, and Laurie Whitwell as they dissect the latest madcap entry in Erik Ten Hag's Manchester United soap opera. Twenty minutes in, two-nil up and cruising, the team once again snatched chaos from the jaws of victory as they conceded twice before half-time, went behin…

There's a question mark in the podcast title, but there isn't much doubt in our camp. The first half against Spurs at Old Trafford on Sunday was the most disjointed, mistake-ridden performance we've seen since Erik Ten Hag became manager of Manchester United. Bruno Fernandes red card was harsh, there's agreement there as well; but, by then, much of…

Ian Irving, fresh from the stands at Old Trafford, holds court with Carl, Laurie Whitwell, and Mr Mitten as we cast judgement over another disappointing performance in Europe.

They also discuss Batman's attempts at flirting, the giant …

The performance of Erik Ten Hag's side at Crystal Palace was, according to Laurie Whitwell, the most complete of his tenure. Yet, in order to be actually complete, the team need to put the ball in the net. Who's going to stick their hand up? Marcus Rashford might have been high on your list of names there, but he was named on the bench at Selhurst …

Our hosts return to the VIRTUAL podcave and sit down to review the episode, WHAT IS REALITY? Alex and Will notice that the plot to this episode is almost identical to the Riddler's previous episode.

We like the idea of the lone genius, that one person who developed a game-changing innovation. But whether or not we realize it, research shows that creativity is collaborative. Yep.

Arne Slot's Liverpool came to Old Trafford and won in second gear in his third game in charge; a damning indictment of Manchester United in the Premier League under Erik Ten Hag.

The summer transfer window is coming to a close and, albeit with several loose ends yet to be tied up, it looks like Manchester United have done what many fans have long hoped for and moved on several fringe players. One of those loose ends is the uncertain future of Jadon Sancho. With rumoured interest from Chelsea seemingly reliant on a player sw…

Another defeat to Brighton (bogey status confirmed), another late goal conceded (inverse Fergie Time pending), another problem defending a set-piece. This game had a worryingly familiar feel. We're also worried about goalscoring in general, and specifically Marcus Rashford's form (even if he didn't justify all the criticism he got). However, there …

It's the eve of the new Premier League and Manchester United, bolstered by the confirmed signings of De Ligt and Mazraoui, had more good news in the shape of a new contract for club captain Bruno Fernandes. Yet another muscle injury for Luke Shaw did take the shine off things a bit, and according to The Athletic's fan survey, fans are nowhere near …
