#721 | United beat Coventry in the FA Cup semi-final, but after surrendering a three-goal lead against a Championship team, it feels like a deeply hollow victory.

#716 | Defeat snatched from the jaws of victory at Stamford Bridge. Just when we thought we'd seen he most braindead performance of the season, Erik ten Hag's men come up with a new low. What a miserable way to lose a game, even if a spot in next season's Champions League had probably already escaped the club.

#715 | United left Brentford with a point, probably should have taken all three after scoring late, but deserved absolutely nothing after another abject performance.

#710 United beat Everton at Old Trafford to (just about) stay in the hunt for a Champions League place following two penalties from Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford. This was far from a vintage performance from United, who once again let a poor quality opposition rack-up more than 20 shots.

#709 No midweek match with something called the "Champions League" happening.

#708 Expected defeat in the derby, but at least United made a fist of it for an hour. Then came City's goal, Ten Hag's weird substitutions and some questionable refereeing. Ed & Dan digest an 11th Premier League defeat of the season - one that leaves the club 11 points off certain qualification for the Champions League.

#707 United beat Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup with a late headed goal. Could it be the strike that saves Erik ten Hag's job? Perhaps if United make it all the way to the Cup final.

#706 United lose at home to Fulham and despite many lows this season, this was one of the most dispiriting defeats. Has Erik ten Hag learned nothing from 15 defeats in all competitions this season? And with Ten Hag asking people to look at the big picture, does the Dutchman realise United's future may not include him should the season end without trophies and Champions League football. Ed & Dan ask the questions and then look ahead to Forest in the Cup.

#704 Victory over Luton followed a now familiar pattern, with Erik ten Hag's side unable to produce a controlled performance despite scoring twice in the opening minutes. Rasmus Hojlund's double gave United the best possible start, but slowly Luton got back into the game and came close to pulling off an unlikely draw. Ed & Dan dig into another curious performance. Then there's further movement in the backroom, with reports that United are looking to hire both Dan Ashworth and Jason Wilcox into a revamped football operations department.00:00 Luton 1, United 205:00 United's Performance and Style of Play10:00 Ten Hag's End Goal13:00 Bruno Fernandes19:00 Raphael Varane's Performance23:00 Luton's Performance25:00 Kobbie Mainoo27:00 Ross Barkley's Improvement32:00 Harry Maguire's Performance34:00 Referee Decisions and VAR39:00 Hojlund's Brilliant Goals42:00 United's Improved Goal Scoring47:00 Negotiations and Speculations on Backroom Staff49:00 The Complexity of Football Contracts51:00 Secrets in Football52:00 Dan Ashworth's Role55:00 Anecdote about John Murtough's Mistake in Not Signing Harland58:00 Tintin and Castifiore Get It OnIf you are interested in supporting the show and accessing exclusive bonus episodes, check out our Patreon page. No Question About That is available on YouTube, Apple, Spotify, Amazon and all podcast apps.
