Summary

#176. On this week's show we discuss the ups and downs of life at United. It has been a disappointing week on the pitch, with David Moyes side losing heavily at Chelsea and then being knocked out by Sunderland in the Capital One Cup semi-final. Off the pitch, the week ended with Juan Mata signing from Chelsea for an incredible £37.1 million. Defeat at Stamford Bridge came at a heavy price, with United now 14 points behind Premier League leaders Arsenal and six behind fourth placed Liverpool. Moreover, the manner of defeat will worry Moyes - his players barely look capable of playing for the Scot, let alone willing to. Then came what many hope is the season's nadir, with Sunderland beating United on penalties to book a date with Manchester City in the Capital One Cup final. At least Moyes admitted his side's performance was abject - it's close to the first time that has happened this season. But the week ended on a hugely positive note with midfielder Mata signing a four and a half year contract with the club to set a new club record transfer fee. Finally, we look forward to United's fixture with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's Cardiff in midweek and take your question!No Question About That is available on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, YouTube, Amazon Music and all good podcast apps.

0:36.4	Football bantolos!
0:37.6	That's courtesy of every person in the whole world
0:40.6	as far as I can work out.
0:41.6	So I decided to be a little bit post ironic and put
0:44.3	up that classic picture of a sheet outside the Bridgewater Hospital and put a massive Spanish
0:49.7	concis-the-door's hat type thing, you know, the big black ones with pom-poms on on top of the sheet and said,
0:55.2	yeah, conclusive proof when matter is in Manchester, assuming that the world would get a bit of irony and
1:01.5	and laugh at this in a post-ironic way and a lot of people took it very seriously
1:06.4	go that's a fake how dare you?
1:09.5	Also at the time he lived pictures of him unashamedly in Manchester were being shown on
1:15.4	Sky Sports News.
1:16.9	The diminutive genius arrived by helicopter in what can only be described as appropriate transport for a player of his quality.
1:24.6	Certainly a dramatic quality to it.
1:27.0	What's wrong with the train? You're that much of a rock star, you're not allowed on the train
1:30.5	and you don't want to, you want to go with the unwashed.
1:32.4	Listen, poor people smell.
1:34.0	Anything that's going to delay or potentially delay his signing.
