#788 | Victory at Craven Cottage but with just one shot on target, there's plenty of questions about the path forward. This is still not a side that creates or scores freely despite the strong defensive performance in London. Then there's news about the future of Old Trafford, with government support apparently forthcoming, and that damn fine footballer Antony joins Betis on loan.

Daily #22 | Look, we don't want to be rude, but there won't be many tears shed for Antony when he departs on loan for Real Betis this week. Costing the club £85m when he joined two and a half years ago, the Brazilian has rarely delivered on the pitch and been, well, a bit more of a hit off it. But where does Antony rank in the worst post-Fergie transfers? Ed and Adam discuss.

#787 | United beat Rangers in the Europa League with a last minute goal from Captain Bruno Fernandes. How many clutch moments can one man produce. There's action in the transfer market, with both Antony (loan) and Alejandro Garnacho (£??) potentially leaving the club. Ed and Tom bemoan the state of the club and - sort of - enjoy United's performance against Rangers.

This is the first episode of a new project, Manchester United: The Lost Tapes.You can find The Lost Tapes on its own feed, everywhere you find podcasts. Enjoy.

Few footballers have had a transformative impact to compare with that of Eric Cantona at Manchester United. When he arrived at Old Trafford from Leeds United, the club were still licking their wounds after passing 25 years without a league title - ironically, marking the occasion by coming agonisingly close in a battle with Cantona’s then-club.
In November 1992, the relationship between Cantona and Leeds manager Howard Wilkinson had deteriorated. Cantona had scored the Premier League’s first-ever hat-trick, and his immense talent was not in doubt - but his discipline was. Wilkinson had brought Cantona to Leeds as recently as January after the Frenchman had been effectively thrown out of his domestic league. The Leeds manager was known as Sergeant Wilko for a reason; however, so too was Eric nicknamed Enfant terrible.
Wilkinson found himself with an unexpected solution when he attempted to strengthen his defence. He needed a full-back, so asked his chairman Bill Fotherby to enquire whether Manchester United would allow Denis Irwin to return to Elland Road. United chairman Martin Edwards said no - but, after a brief discussion with Alex Ferguson, made a counter- offer. Could Manchester United sign Eric Cantona? A deal was swiftly agreed. Leeds felt they were losing a troublemaker. The world of football felt Ferguson was taking a gamble he could ill afford.
Written by Wayne Barton. Narrated by Patrick Barclay. Produced by Ed Barker, Studio 1878.

This is Manchester United: The Lost Tapes. Stories about United's rich history, told in a way you've never heard before. Written by Wayne Barton, narrated by Patrick Barclay and produced by Studio 1878.
Episode One: Cantona
Eric Cantona’s arrival from Leeds United transformed Manchester United after a 25-year title drought, reshaping the club’s fortunes and igniting the Premier League’s imagination. Internal conflict at Leeds and Cantona’s infamous disciplinary issues under Howard Wilkinson, culminated in a startling twist when Leeds approached United about signing Dennis Irwin. Instead, United countered with an offer for Cantona—setting in motion one of football’s most pivotal transfers and redefining what it meant to be a United legend.
Some episodes coming later in the season include ...
Bitter Rivals
In the late 1990s and early noughties there were no more fierce rivals than Arsenal and Manchester United. From the mass brawl at Old Trafford in 1990, to trading titles in 1997, 1998 and 1999, two epic FA Cup semi-finals and pizzagate, no holds were barred.
Welcome to Hell
In 1993, Manchester United ended the 26-year wait to win a league title. Their reward for that piece of history was to compete in the European Cup. United had qualified for the semi-finals in each of their five campaigns under Sir Matt Busby, winning it in 1968. The club's first foray into the tournament tin almost a quarter of a century was to end in stunning, controversial fashion, with one of the most memorable ties in the history of the competition. This is Manchester United's Welcome to Hell.
Knighton
It is 1989 and Michael Knighton is on the Old Trafford pitch juggling a football and scoring at the Stratford End in front of a bemused crowd. Knighton had secured a £20m acquisition of Manchester United, agreeing to purchase shares from then club Chairman Martin Edwards. The investment would be put towards improving the first team and rebuilding the Stratford End. Yet, within a fortnight the deal had collapsed amid acrimony and accusations that Knighton didn't have the money to complete the deal. This is the inside story from those who covered it on the ground.

Daily #21 | Andre Onana started the season well, and at one stage had the best data (saves vs expected saves) of any keeper in the top European leagues. Yet, he has made some ridiculous errors in recent weeks against Wolves, Forest and Brighton. Together with mistakes that cost United last season, the focus is once again on a stopper who has not lived up to his price tag or billing. Should United dip into the market? Can United afford to dip into the market? Ed and Dominic discuss.

Daily #20 | Ruben Amorim ... Ruben Angerim more like. The Manchester United Head Coach reportedly smashed a TV in the Old Trafford dressing room after United's defeat to Brighton on Sunday. His anger stems from players refusing to follow his instructions. Hosts Ed and Isabel like it.

#786 | That's 10 defeats in the Premier League this season. "Losing so many games at home is not acceptable," said Ruben Amorim after the game. And yet it has been the story now for two seasons. Amorim came in with one idea and one that he can only sell to the players if they win games. Right now, this is a United team that's a mess, in a club that's haemorrhaging money and credibility. Ed and Dan survey another disaster at Old Trafford. “We are being the worst team maybe in the history of Man United, we have to acknowledge that,” Amorim added. He might not be wrong.

#785 | For 80 minutes, United were absolutely dreadful. Following two spirited performances away at Liverpool and Arsenal, confidence was high and the question that Ruben Amorim posed: could United sustain this performance level in a game when they're expected to win? He got a definitive answer. Then there was Amad. Amadadona. Maradiallo. El Amad de Oro. This is Amadchester United. Ed and Wayne marvel at the little man's big performance and worry about United's future.

Daily #19 | Manchester United sold Anthony Elanga to Nottingham Forest around 18 months ago. In the time since, the Swedish international has made steady progress, including assisting Forest's goal against Liverpool earlier this week. Did United get the right deal for Elanga, and what does recent speculation about Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo say about the club's approach to youth development?

Daily #18 | After two positive results at Liverpool and Arsenal, can United progress against a Southampton side bottom of the Premier League and seemingly heading out of the division? That's the question fans and Ruben Amorim are asking ahead of Thursday night's game. There's some momentum and United have to grasp it agains the worst side in the Premier League. Ed and Dominic preview the game.

Daily #17 | There are increasing rumours in the media today that Napoli are interested in Manchester United winger/forward Alejandro Garnacho. Any potential deal would represent a large profit for the club and be highly beneficial in PSR terms because he has come through the United academy. But should the club even think about selling a high potential young player? Ed and Isabel discuss.

#784 | United produced a great backs-against-the-wall performance to beat Arsenal on penalties in the FA Cup. Ruben Amorim's side scored a fine breakaway goal to lead before Arsenal's Andy Madley produced one of the more bizarre refereeing performances of the season, finding a reason to send off the careless Diogo Dalot before awarding one of the more ridiculous penalties you'll see. Altay Bayindir saved it and then another in the shootout after United defended with spirit with 10 men for an hour. Ed and Dan enjoy United's performance.

Daily #16 | Arsenal v Manchester United in the FA Cup - one of the classic fixtures of the genre. It's the 16th time the two teams have met in the FA Cup, with United winning eight, although there have been a few painful defeats along the way. Ed and Adam preview the game at the Emirates where 8,000 United fans (1,000 fewer tickets than should have been allocated by the tight-fisted North Londoners) will cheer on Ruben Amorim's side. Can the visitors stop Set Piece FC lumping it into the box yet again?

#783 | We’re at the halfway stage of the season and, well, it’s been pretty shit to date. Ed and Dan take a look at the squad, assessing how everybody has done so far, where United might look to evolve the squad this winter (or more likely in the summer) and what the second half of the campaign might bring.

#782 | United pick up a creditable draw at Anfield where the team's spirit, resilience and organisation came to the fore. It begs the obvious question: why don't we see this every week?

Daily #14 | Liverpool v Manchester United. The biggest game in English football. Hated rivals. 19 v 20 league titles. The benchmark for success. Except that this time United head into the game as huge underdogs. Injuries, poor form, a system that doesn’t suit the squad, Liverpool winning every game. And with United starting one inevitable Michael Oliver pen and/or red card down, could it be one of our best ever victories at Anfield on Sunday? Ed and Tom discuss.
