It's a full house as Carl Anka, Andy Mitten, and Laurie Whitwell join Ian Irving for our second week of the international break.

Roughly 28,000 were at Old Trafford to see Manchester United WFC return to the top of the Women's Super League, and the title race is hotting up nicely!

As always, Manchester United's men had a host of players away on international duty, so we took some more of your questions, focussing on squad depth and fringe players.

Ian Irving brings you the latest on Manchester United's takeover talks with Andy Mitten and Laurie Whitwell, and while there was a bit of drama it felt more like Corrie than Dynasty.

And, with the international break this week, we asked for your questions about the club (and the podcast). There were so many good ones we'll be rolling it over to Monday, but we made a good start with answers on gaiju attack response, Indonesian rice wine, and Ljubljana to name a few!

A 3-1 home win in the FA Cup against Fulham sounds like comfortable Sunday afternoon viewing for Manchester United fans. You probably already know that wasn't the case, but Ian Irving, Andy Mitten, and Laurie Whitwell are here to fill you in on the details.

We consider the potential for two domestic semi-finals against Brighton, one of which could lead to a Manchester derby at Wembley, and we react to an Arsenal-less Europa League quarter final draw. More chips, anyone?

Ian Irving, Andy Mitten, and Carl Anka review a disappointing weekend for both the men's team, who saw Casemiro sent off in a goalless draw with Southampton, and the women who lost to WSL title rivals Chelsea.

Erik Ten Hag's men now have a Europa League second leg to prepare for. Real Betis will probably provide a sterner test in Seville, but with a three goal lead the next order of business should be the quarter final draw.

We also add our tributes to those of the whole club and fanbase, to Ian Stirling, a legendary fan advocate and champion of many supporters' issues including safe standing and representation.

Ian Irving, Carl Anka, and Andy Mitten react to a hugely improved mood as Erik Ten Hag's Manchester United recover from Anfield embarrassment with a convincing Europa League first leg win over Real Betis.

Goals (in ascending order of relieved player) came from Marcus Rashford, Antony, Bruno Fernandes, and Wout Weghorst, and the team will take momentum into the weekend's game against Southampton and the return leg in Seville.
