Ian Irving, Andy Mitten, and Carl Anka review a disappointing weekend for both the men's team, who saw Casemiro sent off in a goalless draw with Southampton, and the women who lost to WSL title rivals Chelsea.
Erik Ten Hag's men now have a Europa League second leg to prepare for. Real Betis will probably provide a sterner test in Seville, but with a three goal lead the next order of business should be the quarter final draw.
We also add our tributes to those of the whole club and fanbase, to Ian Stirling, a legendary fan advocate and champion of many supporters' issues including safe standing and representation.

Ian Irving, Carl Anka, and Andy Mitten react to a hugely improved mood as Erik Ten Hag's Manchester United recover from Anfield embarrassment with a convincing Europa League first leg win over Real Betis.
Goals (in ascending order of relieved player) came from Marcus Rashford, Antony, Bruno Fernandes, and Wout Weghorst, and the team will take momentum into the weekend's game against Southampton and the return leg in Seville.

Here we go again... Ian Irving hosts the Monday podcast he thought we'd put behind us, debriefing a catastrophic defeat at Anfield with Andy Mitten and Laurie Whitwell (who added calamity to disaster even after the final whistle).
So, what happened, and was it a one-off or will it leave a scar? We get into the details, plus a round-up of a couple of news stories, and Andy's fortuitous link to the next opponents, Real Betis. You make your own luck in this game...

Ian Irving, Andy Mitten, and Carl Anka are still coming down from the high of winning at Wembley, but we've already got another cup win to celebrate.
Alejandro Garnacho starred as Manchester United overcame a slow start to kick West Ham out of the FA Cup and, of course, they'll play at home in the next round. First, though, a trip to Anfield; why are Manchester United and Liverpool never good at the same time?

Ian Irving has the whole crew assembled at Old Trafford for instant reaction to Manchester United's comeback win over Barcelona in the Europa League play-off.
The Manchester Madridistas were delighted with the win, thanks to two goals from Brazilian boys Fred and Antony, and it's on to Wembley to face a 'keeper-starved Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup Final.

Ian Irving returns after a short break and he's joined by Carl Anka, Laurie Whitwell, AND Andy Mitten for a fully stocked edition of The Athletic's Manchester United podcast.
Erik Ten Hag made the right calls mid-match again as the team won despite Leicester's bright start. In a huge week of on-pitch matters, fans are split on who should take ownership of the club, and the manager made a direct appeal for vocal support at the Barcelona game on Thursday night.

Carl Anka takes the helm with Andy Mitten and Laurie Whitwell joining him from the third tier of Camp Nou to digest a terrific first leg of the Europa League play-off tie between Manchester United and Barcelona.
Marcus Rashford starred again, flipping the game on its head with a great goal and possible an even better assist, and we think Erik Ten Hag will be the happier manager despite taking exception to some refereeing decisions.

Laurie Whitwell (and his cat, Ron) makes a podcast comeback with Ian Irving and Andy Mitten (and his dog).
Manchester United beat Leeds at the second time of asking with another goal from Marcus Rashford and one from the recently-criticised Alejandro Garnacho. It wasn't vintage football but it's a huge result, especially with so many rivals dropping points this weekend.
As we speak the team, and the fans, are Barcelona-bound for the the first leg of the UEFA Europa League Play-off. It's not the competition you'd expect, or want, to see that fixture in but it's a much higher quality contest than either side might have expected at the start of the season. We've got the juice on the ins and outs of that game, and the host city.

Ian Irving, Andy Mitten, and Carl Anka assemble under the eaves at Old Trafford with The Athletic's new boy Mark Critchley.
It was a disappointing result, certainly, as visitors Leeds United caught Ten Hag's men cold, not once but twice! However, there was a warm glow in the air (and on Andy's face) after Marcus Rashford and the returning Jadon Sancho scored to salvage a draw.
On that evidence, the trip to Elland Road will prove a tough test, but we're hoping one or two of the seven first team players who missed tonight's game will be available.
