No Question About That - a Manchester United podcast

Finishing Touch

Ep. 767

#767 A one-all draw against Chelsea at Old Trafford, given the context over the past week isn't so bad, although interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooij will rue some poor finishing. That has been one of the major stories of the season. Once again United created chances, taking 11 shots but missed four 'big chances' as defined by Opta. It's a challenge that incoming Head Coach Ruben Amorim has to fix.Ed and Dan discuss and then look ahead to Thursday night's game against PAOK.

  • 774. Undone by the Quinoa Dons

    53:33||Ep. 774
    #774 We saw it coming. Arsenal have been exceptional at capitalising on set pieces this season, consistently creating chances to win free kicks and corners. United ultimately conceded 13 corners, with two leading to goals for Mikel 'Pulis' Arteta's side. While United’s structure largely held firm, limiting Arsenal's threat from open play, their own attack lacked any real menace. Ed and Wayne break down a frustrating result and examine yet another reminder of the daunting task ahead for new Head Coach Ruben Amorim. There's a discussion about the Rainbow Laces campaign and a tribute to Kath Phipps who has passed away.If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing exclusive bonus episodes, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts Subscriptions.

  • 773. Marcus Lives!

    56:23||Ep. 773
    #773 It has been 88 games since United scored four in a Premier League game. 88 games. Is the return of 4-0 FC under new coach Ruben Amorim a co-incidence? Is Marcus Rashford's return to goalscoring form? Ed and Dan think not. After reviewing United's victory over Everton, there's a preview of the trip to Arsenal on Wednesday.If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing exclusive bonus episodes, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts Subscriptions.

  • 772. Patterns of Play

    56:37||Ep. 772
    #772 Victory over Bodø/Glimt in the Europa League and more evidence of the very clear way United will play under Head Coach Ruben Amorim. This was far from a perfect United performance, but it is already a team with more identity and clearer patterns of play than at any time under Erik ten Hag. Ed and Tom discuss United's victory on Thursday and then look forward to Everton's visit this weekend.If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing exclusive bonus episodes, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts Subscriptions.

    45:12||Ep. 771
    #771 Ruben Amorim's Manchester United drew 1-1 at Ipswich with some very familiar problems coming to the fore. But with a new system unveiled and just two full training sessions completed with the full squad, some sense of discombobulation is to be expected. Ed and Wayne discuss Amorim's first game in charge and then look ahead to United's game against Bodo/Glimt on Thursday.If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing exclusive bonus episodes, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts Subscriptions.
