#304 – Betting Everything on Europa Success




Rant Cast show

Summary: In the fortnight since the last Rant Cast Jose Mourinho has executed on a seemingly long-held plan: to bet everything on Manchester United winning the Europa League, at the expense of domestic league success. Draws with Manchester and Swansea City, then defeat at Arsenal has all but ensured a fourth successive season outside the top three. Ed & Paul look back on a series of uninspiring performances in the League, and the relative success of a 1-0 victory at Celta Vigo. As always, there’s plenty of listener questions, and a look ahead to games against Celta at Old Trafford and Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane. For backers, bonus content looking back on the 1995/6 season.   If you are interested in supporting the show, and accessing some cool rewards, check out our Patreon crowdfunding page. We are currently running our first stretch goals campaign. Talk to us on Twitter: Paul – @UtdRantCast, Ed – @UnitedRant. Rant Cast is produced by Tom Jenkins – TEEJSOUND / @Teejsound
