Talk of the Devils: The Athletic FC's Manchester United show – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Arne Slot's Liverpool came to Old Trafford and won in second gear in his third game in charge; a damning indictment of Manchester United in the Premier League under Erik Ten Hag. It all feels horribly familiar as we ask many of the same questions on the first "Monday inquest" of a new season. Is there a case for giving the manager and the squad any slack at the end of a busy transfer window, one that had looked very productive. Irish listeners will take some cheer from the news that our long-promised ticket update for the live show in Dublin has finally arrived, and we have also added an extra date in Belfast!

The summer transfer window is coming to a close and, albeit with several loose ends yet to be tied up, it looks like Manchester United have done what many fans have long hoped for and moved on several fringe players. One of those loose ends is the uncertain future of Jadon Sancho. With rumoured interest from Chelsea seemingly reliant on a player swap, would Raheem Sterling actually make sense, or might there be other players who would serve the squad better. And, with Liverpool making the short hop to Old Trafford this weekend, we use your memories of this fixture to get the fire burning. Hopefully, Erik Ten Hag can get one over on his compatriot, the more fashionable (?) Arne Slot. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's the least surprising emergency podcast in history: Erik Ten Hag will continue as the manager of Manchester United into the 2024/25 season. Nevertheless, the podcasters have assembled at short notice; breaking away from holidays, tours, Euro preparations, and a haircut, to get into some of the questions... and there are many. How was the decision reached, and why did it take so long? How much did the FA Cup final affect the thinking? Is everyone fully on board? How close did any other candidate get to taking over? And, most importantly, what does the future hold, both for the man himself and his team? PRODUCER: Ollie Bellwood EXEC PRODUCER: Adrian Moorhead Learn more about your ad choices.

Ian Irving, Andy Mitten, and Laurie Whitwell have got the hump with Manchester United's away form. David De Gea's rick at the London Stadium made the headlines but the performance was alarmingly familiar. What we'd give for a run of away form like the one seen under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer; we wonder if he is remembered unfairly on the tenth anniversary of Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement. Meanwhile, MUWFC are making great strides towards a successful season, and are now just a point from securing their Champions League place.

Brighton's last-gasp penalty means Manchester United will almost certainly finish the Premier League season with just one point from all their away games at top-half clubs; Ian Irving carries out the post-mortem with Andy Mitten and Carl Anka. On the 30th anniversary of the club's first ever Premier League title, we remember Steve Bruce's party, Sir Alex Ferguson's team-talk, and legendary players wearing questionable suits. The next game is away, but it's at relegation-threatened West Ham, managed by David Moyes. Let's hope for a good Manchester United, and not a "Dundee Utd".

Ian Irving is joined by Laurie Whitwell and Dan Sheldon post-match at Old Trafford, before a later date with Laurie, again, and Andy Mitten. On the agenda: two crucial league wins against Aston Villa as Manchester United's men and women both took another step towards next season's Champions League. The game at Old Trafford also made the news with another anti-Glazer protest, this time headed up by fan group "The 1958".

Ian Irving holds court as Andy Mitten and Laurie Whitwell negotiate the post-match obstacles of Tottenham with Carl Anka chuckling on from Manchester. The big question is whether Thursday night's draw at Spurs is an acceptable result given Manchester United's away record and the opposition's recent travails. We also take a quick look ahead to the weekend's match against Aston Villa which will surely provide a tough test for a tired looking group of players. Mary Earps will be in action against Aston Villa on Friday night and she has been looking ahead to a thrilling season finale for the women's team with Carl and Charlotte Harpur. With two trophies and Champions League qualification on the line, will she be dancing on a press-conference table next month? Produced by Ollie Bellwood. Learn more about your ad choices.

Logistics very nearly got the better of us but despite a dash to Euston after the penalties we do have a Wembley podcast for you with instant reaction to the win over Brighton from Ian Irving, Carl Anka, Andy Mitten (just about), and Laurie Whitwell. It'd be fair to say this one wasn't a classic, but Victor Lindelof's winning penalty did set up the first ever all-Manchester FA Cup final, and a possible chance to deny City the treble...

Ian Irving, Andy Mitten, and Laurie Whitwell report on a disastrous night for Manchester United after they were dumped out of the UEFA Europa League in Seville. The men will have to pick themselved up quickly to beat Brighton in Sunday's FA Cup semi-final; a feat already achieved by the women's team, who went on to beat Arsenal in the WSL on Wednesday night. Chelsea may yet pip them to the title, but they should now qualify for next season's Champions League.
