We BACKKKKK!!!!!

It’s genuinely felt like the Middle Ages since United last kicked a ball. I’ve aged, I’ve reflected, I’ve even started enjoying international breaks… alright, that’s a lie, let’s not get carried away.

ROBBED!

Both fouls were the same but different outcomes. I actually think all three were penalties. There were no issues with the call for Maguire's foul and subsequent red card as he was the last man and denied a clear goal scoring opportunity.

Winning Is ALL That Matters!

After getting back to winning ways, Carrick and co make the trip down to Bourne's mouth to face the Cherries and, of course, another manager loosely linked with the United job because apparently that’s just a weekly tradition now — Andoni Iraola.

Michael Carrick's Bournemouth Press Conference

Ahead of United's visit to Bournemouth, the interim boss spoke about injury news, his skipper Bruno Fernandes and potentially winning player of the season award as well as what will be a tough game on the South Coast.

Champions League Secure?

A very good ebening (😁) for United as they bounced back from the defeat to Newcastle with a convincing… well, convincing enough 3–1 win over Villa. More importantly, it was a big result in the Champions League race.

Michael Carrick's Aston Villa Press Conference

The United interim admits to being a little impatient about having to way for Sunday's game against Villa as he and his side look to get back to winning ways after suffering first defeat under Carrick.

‍Chance To Cement UCL Football!

After another one of those lengthy, boring and frankly irritating gaps between matches, United finally return to action as they welcome Aston Villa to Old Trafford in what is shaping up to be a fairly significant clash in the race for Champions League football.

This Was COMING!

Embarrassing. Absolutely, utterly embarrassing 😳! Like, how could ten men Newcastle beat that shite just 2-1?! Whilst that is sarcasm, there is a tinge of truth to it because they were the team that looked to be a man up and deserved to win.

Michael Carrick's Newcastle Press Conference

Ahead of the mid-week action at Newcastle, Michael Carrick discusses what will be a tough test at St James' Park, injury news, not looking too far ahead, his captain and more.

Tough Magpie Test

Michael Carrick returns to his hometown with a Man United side that suddenly looks relentless, as they head to St James’ Park to face a Newcastle outfit enduring a season that has unravelled far quicker than anyone expected.

Into 3rd!

Michael Carrick can seemingly do no wrong. His MUFC side finally managed to beat Palace at home after a somewhat fortuitous 2-1 victory ending the Eagles’ unbeaten run at Old Trafford. I’m gonna be honest here, these type of wins confuse me.

Michael Carrick's Crystal Palace Press Conference

United are back at Old Trafford for the first time in three games as Carrick's Reds host a man who has been linked with taking over from him; Oliver Glasner and his Eagles side.

6 From 7 For Carrick? Or Another Potential Hiccup?

We needed those 3 points on Monday night. After slipping against West Ham and letting both Chelsea and Liverpool sniff around our top-four spot, anything less at Everton would’ve felt like the beginning of a wobble.

Sesko Saviour Again!

We won. That was the most important thing. But after a long ass time, we could see that that was a team that hadn't played in two weeks. And then you look at United and it appeared as if we hadn't played all season!

Michael Carrick's Everton Press Conference

United are back in action and ahead of their Monday night trip to Everton, interim boss Michael Carrick spoke about injuries, the Toffees, mid-season friendlies and Sir Jim Ratcliffe's immigrant comment.

Prove Us Wrong!

After what feels like three decades, United are finally back in action 🙌. We travel to Everton’s new Hill Dickinson Stadium for the first time on Monday night. Monday night.

Five Things Learned Under The Interim

In a short space of time, he’s shown that sometimes it’s not about reinventing everything. It’s about doing what needs to be done to get United back on track and qualifying for the Champions League.

Same Old Crap 🤦‍♂️

I am not surprised. A little disappointed but as we've seen this before - and my gut was telling me we could cock up this game - drawing to a relegation side through a flat performance doesn't shock me.

This Feels Different…

Michael Carrick and his Red Army return to the capital to face West Ham, looking to extend a run that has made United the only unbeaten side in the league this calendar year.

Michael Carrick's West Ham Press Conference

The interim seeks his fifth-straight victory as United head back to the capital to take on Nuno Espirito Santo and West Ham, another side who are in good form. United's interim spoke about the Hammers, injuries...

Job Done!

The curse is over 😌. United finally manage to beat Spurs which is coincidentally, the same result we had against them the last time we defeated them. The score line suggests a routine win, which is exactly what it turned out to be.

Michael Carrick's Spurs Press Conference

A day early comes Michael Carrick's Spurs presser due to the anniversary of the Munich air disaster tomorrow. He spoke to the media to address all things injuries, Spurs and the most important day in our history.

A Problem Fixture

Michael Carrick, a man who can seemingly do no wrong, looks to make it four wins from four as United’s interim boss when he welcomes a familiar face in Hottenham Totspur to Old Trafford.

Title Charge Incoming 😭

You know, I haven't stopped smiling since we beat those fools City a couple weeks ago. That smiled has remained and long may it remain as Carrick gets his THIRD win in three at the start of his second stint as United interim.

Michael Carrick's Fulham Press Conference

The interim boss of Man Utd spoke ahead of Fulham's visit to Old Trafford for his third game in charge. After victories over Man City and Arsenal, Carrick doesn't want anyone to get too carried away and...

The REAL Test!

After the greatest manager and greatest team in football history (😁) brushed aside two fairly average opponents, Michael Carrick’s United are chasing a third straight win against Full of ham.

CARRICK LIFETIME CONTRACT!

It was no surprise that Carrick picked the same team and went with the same approach. The thing that was actually frustrating me was the fact that we sat deep and didn't do anything else. Until their opener, United just defended but allowed Arsenal to have all of the ball.

Carrick's Second Win? 😅

I mean, his last game before this second interim spell ended with a 3-2 triumph over Mikel Arteta and his Gunners. Granted that was a different Arsenal and a different United, one that relied on a hat-trick from a certain Cristiano Ronaldo...

Michael Carrick's Arsenal Press Conference

Ahead of United's trip to The Emirates, the interim boss Michael Carrick spoke about De Ligt's injury, the importance of the academy, Casemiro leaving, the Gunners and more.

EZ Win 🤷‍♂️

Honestly, it was an easy win. I don't think we've ever had such a simple path to victory in a Manchester Derby in a loooooooong time. And really, we should've won by more. I must be frank, I didn't expect that result. AT ALL.

Michael Carrick's First Man td Press Conference

The ex-player and ex-interim manager and now current interim manager addressed the media for the first time ahead of his second debut in the dugout at Old Trafford against Man City. A pretty easy one to start then 😅.

Carrick's Derby Debut!

Before we start this, there are some posts doing the rounds on Twitter that I'd like to share. One by the Stretford Post and another by The 1958. These two posts show the true feelings of supporters indicating...

Bro Kept It Simple

Despite the disappointment of picking up yet another draw against a crap team and dropping into 7th in the table, there was a lot of good that we can take away from Fletcher's first time in the United dugout.

New Manager. Same Old United 🙄

What was the point in sacking Amorim mid-season? I don't see any benefits from doing it now. If you kept him through all of those other crap results, you may as well have kept him to the end.

Darren At The Wheel 😭

Halfway through a season and yet again, United are under new management. Similarly to last season, we will see three managers in charge for one campaign as after Ruben Amorim's sacking, former Red Darren Fletcher...

Darren Fletcher Press Conference Reaction

However, it is another former Red who takes charge for the now as Darren Fletcher spoke to the press about becoming caretaker boss, team news and Burnley tomorrow night.

End Of 2025 🤝 Start Of 2026

Man United do what Man United do and disappoint us 😔. Weirdly, despite knowing that this would be the case, we still get disappointed. To pick up just 2 points against Wolves (the worst side in PL history) at home and away to Leeds is absolutely awful 🤮.

Leeds v Man Utd: Preview MW20

These man continuously drop the unexpected on us especially when we don’t see it coming: away to Liverpool = superb win. Home to the worst side in PL history = draw and lucky not to have lost it.

This Is Sackable!

United just gave Wolves their 3rd point of the season after what was another Everton, West Ham, Brentford-type performance in an awful draw at home to factual, the worst team in PL history until this point in our last home game of the year.

Stick To Back Four? 👀

We're at the midway mark of Ruben Amorim's first full campaign in charge of United and his side will take on the perfect team to close out what has been one hell of a 2025 👀.

Amorim Change Of Heart?

Ruben's Reds managed to pull off the unexpected by beating Newcastle without the likes of Bruno Fernandes, Mainoo, De Ligt, Maguire, Amad, Mazraoui and Mbeumo, as well as a bench of youngsters.

A Christmas Miracle!

Some are saying that they don't feel excited after getting these 3 points or that it's embarrassing to have just 33% possession at home or that they're just happy with finally winning at home for the first time since October.

I Don't Have A Good Feeling About This One 😬

You know, I’ve got to be honest and say that this is a game I’ve been low key concerned about for a while. With United’s recent results and performances, I have NO confidence that we will get a positive result.

"I Believe In The Team"

Ahead of the Boxing Day clash against the Geordie's, Ruben Amorim delivered his updates regarding the injuries of Mainoo, De Ligt, Maguire and captain Bruno Fernandes. The United boss confirms that both Mainoo...

Not Good Enough!

United failed to make the most of the chance to get into the top 5 (again) thanks to a disappointing loss to the league’s in-form side as Villa managed to beat United in the PL for the first time since 2022.

Christams Came Early!

Honestly, it's almost as if this is expected from United nowadays. And the funny thing is, we were actually decent. However, even against a Villa side who didn't play at the level they have been...

Ruben Amorim Aston Villa Press Conference Reaction

There was much to discuss for Ruben Amorim ahead of his side's trip to Villa Park to take on the league's most in-form team. From his captain's comments to 'Free Kobbie Mainoo', there wasn't a shortage of talking points for the United boss.

Villans v Devils

United dropped 2 more points in what was a pretty entertaining game against Bournemouth. That 4-4 will go down as one of the games of the season but for Ruben Amorim, it was a chance missed (again) to move higher up in the table.

The Best And Worst Of United

WHAT DO WE SAY ABOUT THAT?!

I'm talking about United btw not Bournemouth who somehow managed to score 3 or more times in three successive matches at Old Trafford which is the first time any side has managed that. Ever.

Back-To-Back Wins Incoming?

The Red Devils are looking to make it 6 points from 6 when the Cherries travel to Old Trafford. Ruben Amorim will seek to continue the momentum from their best performance of the season after a 4-1 win over the might Wolves.

Ruben Amorim Bournemouth Press Conference: Reaction

Not the best update in terms of availability for United as Amorim says that De Ligt and Maguire are still injured while Sesko has food poisoning. He will be assessed before Monday night.

Best Performance Of The Season!

Well, I suppose that that isn't anything special considering the level of opponent, with all due respect to Wolves. We didn't expect anything less other than a convincing United victory. Thankfully, that's what we got 🙌.

Why Were We Concerned? 🤔😅

Yes, Ruben's Reds went to Molineux and picked apart a Wolves side who have just 2 points from 15 games. Many (including myself) saw this as a potential banana skin for United and maybe even Amorim's last game should things have gone completely awry.

Surely Not?

I feel there's no need to tell you what's coming because you know with the poor record of Wolves and not scoring in millennia, the game against us will not only see them play like prime Barcelona but one where they will score and perhaps win.

Ruben Amorim's Wolves Press Conference: Reaction

“You ask me always the same thing. I understand what you are saying. You love Kobbie. He starts for England, but that doesn’t mean I need to put Kobbie when I feel I shouldn’t put Kobbie.”

Another MAJOR Manager Mess Up!

The problem with games such as these is that we've been here soooooooooo many times before we end up saying the same things, complain about the same problems, only for us to make the same mistakes in next game.

I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMOREEE!!!

You know what, forget the standard format of these reviews, I'm just gonna talk. In South Africa, these mid-week games kick off at 22:00. They finish tomorrow. People in the Middle East, Asia, Australia are waking up in the...

Ruben Amorim's West Ham Press Conference: Reaction

Not the best of team news although Cunha is back but there are some concerns over two unnamed players. The United boss also discussed Cunha, Yoro, Dalot and receiving abuse online.

Time To Kick On 👊

United got back to winning ways with a win over Crystal Palace last time out thanks to goals by Joshua Zirkzee and Mason Mount. Amorim and his team were in need of those 3 points after the disaster that was Everton in our last home game.

BIG in For Amorim!

Ruben and his Reds got what was a HUGE 3 points at a ground where victories have been scarce over the years. After their dismal display at home to Everton a week ago, the United boss was in desperate need of a result at Palace.

AMORIM LIFETIME CONTRACT!

United do the seemingly unthinkable and actually get a win at Selhurst Park, a stadium in which we hadn't won at since 2020 and against a side that we hadn't scored against in four matches.

Ruben Amorim's Crystal Palace Press Conference: Reaction

A tough week is what Amorim called the last few days after that embarrassing 1-0 loss to Everton at Old Trafford on Monday night. He now has to see his unpredictable United side travel to a ground in which they haven't tasted victory at since 2020!

What re We Going o Get This Time? 👀

That trust was gone a long time ago but due to the five-game unbeaten run, it felt like perhaps we were turning a corner. We hadn't gone on such a run since 22/23 and it wasn't wrong of us to believe that maybe this time, it was for real.

Messed Up. BIG Time.

I thought we appeared too rushed at times especially after the Everton red card. United looked too panicked almost as if they had to get the equalizer right away and while yes, getting the next goal asap was needed, the way we went about trying to get it was not.

THIS IS WHO WE ARE!

With a five game unbeaten run behind them and a strong showing from multiple players during the international break, a home game against a decent Everton side on what was the manager's one year anniversary of his first game in charge...

Man Utd v Everton: Preview MW 12

How good is it to have proper football back? I missed. I really did. And I find that to be a step in the right direction because it means that United are not shite! To be looking forward to matches shows that we are doing something right.

"I expect a team with more control and more dominance"

The United boss was back in front of the media ahead of the Monday night fixture against Everton. United are unbeaten in five with the MUFC manager looking at extending that run.

Spurs 2-2 Man Utd: 5 Things Learned

Back-to-back 2-2 draws for United felt like back-to-back defeats when looking at how we ended up with those points. After taking the lead in both of our last two matches, we would've hoped to have taken all 3 come the final whistle yet we're happy to walk away with a point.

FFS!!! 🤦‍♂️

Before we get into it, I just want to apologize to all the neutrals who watched that because that is one of the most anti-football games I've seen in a while. Well actually, since the Europa League final.

Ruben Amorim's Tottenham Press Conference - Reaction

Ahead of United's crunch trip to Hottenham Totspur, Ruben Amorim discussed how he feels his team are better but still need a lot of improvement, why there have been fewer injuries and the recent comments of a legend.

Spurs v Man Utd: Preview MW11

Ruben's Reds take on another big six opponent making it a clean sweep (for the first round) as we travel to 3 point lane. United will come up against Thomas Frank's Spurs in one of the blockbuster fixtures this weekend.

Forest 2-2 Man Utd: 5 Things Learned

Ruben's Reds didn't take advantage of a Forest side who hadn't won in the league since opening day and hadn't scored at home in three. After three wins on the bounce, many expected a fourth.

Missed Opportunity

This was typical United. Only we can go to the champions and pick up a deserved victory and then in our next away game, drop points at a side in the relegation zone and who's had more managers than wins.

Ruben Amorim talks about his year as Man Utd manager

Forest on Saturday will mark the one year anniversary of Ruben Amorim's first weekend in charge as Man Utd manager. He will want to make that a happy anniversary but admits that things will be tough on Saturday.

Forest v Man Utd: Preview MW10

Ruben's Reds are on the rampage and are seeking their fourth straight victory! Crazy to think that a few weeks ago, he was under serious pressure with major question marks about his future.

Man Utd 4-2 Brighton: 5 Things Learned

RUBEN'S REDS ARE COOKINGGGG!!!! 🔥 Three wins on the bounce, into the European positions, ahead of title holders Loserpool, above WoRlD cHaMpIoNs Chelsea and next thing you know, we're on a title charge.

Amorim Turns A Corner?

Many saw this game against Brighton as a more important one that Liverpool due to the fact that these were the type of matches where United let themselves down after a good performance against a top side.

Ren Amorim's Brighton Press Conference: Reaction

The manager discussed last week's match winner's contract situation, what he took away from the recent wins, Brighton and his skipper coming up to 300 appearances for the club.

Man Utd v Brighton: Preview MW 9

It is unfortunate that we feel this way about our team in that they can pick up an unlikely win over the great enemy yet we have no idea whether we can perform in the next match.

Liverpool 1-2 Man Utd: 5 Things Learned

For me, that is the most important. Yes there was a bit of luck when looking at the three times LFC hit the post and both Gakpo and Salah missing sitters but that's not our problem.

SIR RUBEN AMORIM!

You know, these are the games we watch football for. These are the games we live for. Having to wait two weeks as well after an international break was tough, but so worth that wait in the end.

Ruben Amorim's Liverpool Press Conference

MUFC manager Ruben Amorim seeks to end his search for his first back-to-back league victories as he takes his United side to the greatest foe. Should he manage to end that duck at Anfield, what a statement that would be.

Liverpool v Man Utd: Preview MW 8

The BIGGEST game in English football and if you ask me, it's the biggest game in ALL of football. Man Utd have been embarrassed by LFC in recent years (and how) but it is the current champions that find themselves...

The Perfect Game

Ruben Amorim was in dire need of such a win and display from his side after all of the pressure he's had to endure so far this season. A lot of it was brought upon by himself with his choices but as you'll see, he did make amends for them in this match.

HUGE WIN FOR AMORIM!

This was as straight forward a win as he could've asked for as the home side never really had to worry too much against a Sunderland side that showed nothing of the team that was actually in 5th before this game week.

Amorim Defiant On His Style Of Play

The United boss spoke to the media ahead of what is fast-becoming his biggest make or break game at Old Trafford and he's had a few of those in his 11 months at the club.

Make or Break!

Amorim has nowhere to hide on this one. Against Brentford, we know that we've had trouble at the Gtech Community Stadium in the past and he also had the excuse of playing away from home...

A Matter Of Time?

Amorim once again failed to win back-to-back games as MUFC boss as his side were utter shite and deservedly loss to Brentford in a match that had several similarities to the defeat at Grimsby.

Disappointing team news, showing urgency, every game is a final

Ahead of United’s trip to Brentford, United manager Ruben Amorim gave us some interesting updates on team news, what he wants to see from his team on the pitch and off it, and not knowing what to expect from his players.

Can Amorim Get Back-To-Back Wins?

Ruben Amorim will be hoping his side's victory over Chelsea will be the stepping stone for success. He takes his Man Utd team to a tricky Brentford outfit who always seem to cause the Red Devils trouble.

GIVE AMORIM LIFETIME CONTRACT 😭😭

But thankfully, it wasn't. It was the right way round. Man Utd and Ruben Amorim beat Chelsea in a crazy game at Old Trafford which meant it was Amorim's first back-to-back victories at home in the league.

WE WON A GAME OF FOOTBALL 🙌

But that wasn't the case and Chelsea and Maresca will have to live with the fact that they lost to this Man Utd side 🤣. Tbh, Maresca should be sacked for that. What a marathon of a match.

Players returning, Garnacho, improved performances, new deal?!

Ruben Amorim spoke ahead of what will be another crunch game for the MUFC manager who will no doubt come under scrutiny should he not get a positive result against the Blues.

Amorim's Final Chance?

It almost feels as if every game is Amorim's final chance to save his bacon at Man Utd. After last week's humiliation in the derby (again), the Portuguese came under HUGE fire for his side's frankly, woeful performance against a side that were there for the taking.

We Moving Backwards!

Some have been saying that this derby loss was worse than the 6-3 a few years ago. I think it's more the manner of the defeat rather than the score line that has caused people to think in this way.

'The Good Days Are Coming'

An easy cruise control of a victory for the blue half of Manchester over the Red as Pep's Cityzens trounce Ruben's Reds 3-0 to deliver another hammer blow to the Portuguese and his time at Old Trafford.

Ruben Amorim's Manchester Derby Press Conference

Amorim spoke to the press ahead of the first derby of the season. He gave us some updates that we may not have wanted but seemed otherwise positive in terms of his mood going into Sunday's crunch game.

First Derby of the Season 🍿

What a game to return to after the annoyance of the international break. Like goodness gracious is it boring AF! At least we did see quite a few goals though, so that's something.

Are We Making Progress?

United picked up their first victory last weekend in what turned out to be a bit of a squeaky bum game. Despite another good performance, Ruben's Reds required an injury time penalty to secure the much-needed 3 points.
