729. A Famous Cup Victory
56:44#729 | A famous victory over Manchester City at Wembley. Manager Erik ten Hag has been vociferously criticised this season.

But in the week a major media outlet claimed Ten Hag is toast at United, the Dutchman found a formula to beat Pep Guardiola's financially-doped blues. What a day. What a victory. After so much angst this season, United ended the campaign on a massive high. Ed & Dan celebrate.If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing exclusive bonus episodes, check out our Patreon page.
