S8 E15: Everton (a) + Cyprus travel review

Seven wins in nine for Manchester United, who respond to derby humiliation with two comeback victories, not necessarily comfy or convincing, but cheering at the very least.
Today on the Manchester United Weekly Podcast with Harry Robinson and Jack Tait, we analyse in most depth United’s win over Everton on Sunday, looking at Casemiro’s up-and-down display, David de Gea’s pretty commanding performance, Antony’s third goal in as many league game and plenty more. Later in the show, we look a little further back to the Marcus Rashford-inspired 3-2 win in Cyprus.
In the latter part of the episode, you’ll hear an extensive youth and loan round-up, with a pretty successful week for a few players out in the Football League. And we wrap up by previewing Thursday’s match against Omonia Nicosia at Old Trafford, plus hearing about Harry’s time out in Cyprus.
