About this episode

Ed and Daniel discuss Manchester United's 3-2 victory over Liverpool, highlighting key performances and the implications for the team's future.

#1001 | Ed and Daniel enjoy United’s 3–2 win over Liverpool. United’s strong first half that could have produced four; Liverpool almost snatched an improbable draw, only for a fine finish from Kobbie Mainoo to win the game. It’s the first time for a decade United secured a Premier League double over Liverpool - and the win officially secured Champions League football next season. In truth United were always likely to find enough against a ponderous Liverpool team but a couple of individual errors allowed them back into the game. With just three games to go, the conversation inevitably turns to the managerial situation and summer transfer market. 10 wins in 14 puts Carrick in pole position, but does Mainoo’s impressive performances change the calculation in the market? 00:00 Intro and Match Reaction 08:40 The First Half 15:01 Sesko and the Attack 15:38 Midfield Performances and Summer Needs 23:11 The Second Half 37:46 Is Carrick Getting The Job? 45:55 Liverpool Tactics 48:39 Sunderland Preview, Fergie Illness If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.
