Ian Irving hosts a slightly shell-shocked Europa League debrief with Carl Anka, Laurie Whitwell, and Andy Mitten.
Manchester United were 2-0 up after twenty minutes against relegation-threatened Sevilla, with the Spanish side naming some first-choice players on the bench. It was a golden opportunity to finish off the tie.
That the game finished level was largely down to an uncomfortably familiar frailty, the inability to maintain control, but it could also have been worse had de Gea not (again) made some crucial saves.

There's an Everton debrief and a news round-up before we preview the reason for that in-person reunion; a Europa League quarter-final first leg against Sevilla. But, will the visitors play like the most successful team in Europa League history or La Liga relegation contenders?

Ian Irving, Laurie Whitwell, and Andy Mitten were relieved to see Manchester United win in the Premier League for the first time since February; who else but Marcus Rashford provided the winning goal after a neat header from the more-advanced Marcel Sabitzer.
Ten Hag's side will host Everton this Saturday lunchtime and while, league position says it will be a difficult place for them to get a result, they do have a surprisingly good record at Old Trafford in recent years.

A full complement again as Ian Irving, Andy Mitten, Carl Anka, and Laurie Whitwell preview Manchester United's hectic April schedule, one they'll start without Casemiro away at Newcastle United.
And, there's a glance ahead to next season and the possibility that some established players may leave. Scott McTominay had a great week for Scotland, but would you keep him, and what about David de Gea?

Ian Irving brings you the latest on Manchester United's takeover talks with Andy Mitten and Laurie Whitwell, and while there was a bit of drama it felt more like Corrie than Dynasty.
And, with the international break this week, we asked for your questions about the club (and the podcast). There were so many good ones we'll be rolling it over to Monday, but we made a good start with answers on gaiju attack response, Indonesian rice wine, and Ljubljana to name a few!
