Summary

#984 | Ed and Dominic react to United’s 2–1 defeat at Newcastle - the first loss of the Michael Carrick era. It was a particularly flat, listless performance despite Newcastle going down to 10 men. Bruno Fernandes created eight chances but for the most part the rest of the team let their captain and manager down. Why were United so flat and why couldn't the team control the game despite having a man extra? There were moments of refereeing controversy, but in the end United's lack of physicality and squad depth showed against the Magpies once again. 00:00 Introduction 01:37 Why United Looked Flat 05:50 Red Card And Major Calls 08:30 Full Back and Midfield Struggles 13:28 Summer Midfield Rebuild 20:46 Transfer Strategy Concerns 23:04 What Happened To Ugarte 27:08 Control vs Chaos 35:17 Squad Balance Blueprint 40:00 Standards and Context 44:42 Sign Off Learn more about your ad choices.
