On the Manchester United Weekly Podcast this week, hosts Harry Robinson and Jack Tait get happily waylaid discussing contrasting fan cultures in the women's game, at United, Borrusia Dortmund, FC Koln and in the USA. They then consider the next couple of months, previewing our next game, against Newcastle, and answering questions from our Patreons. There are predictions for the rest of the season and plenty more to dive into. Enjoy!

It’s far from the perfect bounce back, but Manchester United have not crumbled after that harrowing Anfield defeat. A confident dismantling of Real Betis in the UEFA Europa League was the key, and the Reds really should have scored six or seven. When Southampton came to town, there can be few complaints that the team failed to score. United simply didn’t create enough. A disappointing 0-0 draw against a poor side, and a quite forgettable match, but one that does tell us plenty about this team, and that’s what your hosts Harry Robinson and Jack Tait analyse on the Manchester United Weekly Podcast this week.
The two Reds consider United’s faults and talk about Casemiro’s red card and a couple of other controversial decisions. They take a moment to remember Ian Stirling, a giant of Manchester United’s support who sadly died at the weekend. Then there's a review of the win over Real Betis in brief, a preview the second leg in Seville, your regular Academy, loan and United Women updates, and a new round of Guess the Player.

A painfully historic defeat. Liverpool 7-0 Manchester United. There are bad days at the office, and there is your joint-heaviest ever defeat. What a uniquely terrible match and moment in this season. Nevertheless, on the Manchester United Weekly Podcast, we get it all off our chests and move on as United look at setting ourselves up for Europa League progression having already won the League Cup and reached the FA Cup quarter-finals.
We know it was bad, but we’ll be considering exactly what happened because don’t get it wrong, this wasn’t like the 4-0 at Brentford or even the 6-3 at City, and it certainly wasn’t like last season’s harrowing defeats to Liverpool home and away. And that’s why it feels different. So what is different about it? And why do we get the sense that this wasn’t just bad, but utterly, utterly bizarre? That’s what we’ll be trying to answer. And then we’ll give you your regular, extensive updates on the Academy, players out on loan and United Women, who had a highly contrasting weekend with a thumping win to extend their lead at the top of the Women’s Super League. We’ll then preview Thursday night’s match against Real Betis of Seville and La Liga.

That was great. Need we say more? Well, yes. Plenty more. And here it is.
Plus we preview Wembley, and we're joined for 15 minutes by Aaron Stokes, Newcastle fan and reporter for The Chronicle. We talk about the game with him, but also the conflicting opinions over the ownership of our two clubs. It's an interesting chat.
