#673. One step forward, two steps back. Maybe more. This was as poor a performance from United as we've seen this season. Insipid, lethargic, perhaps even lazy. What's going on? Ed & Wayne discuss defeat to Crystal Palace and then look ahead to Galatasaray on Tuesday night. For backers, we talk about 'Welcome to Hell' from 1993.

* Apologies if the audio is a bit off this week. Bit of a fail with the recording software so we're using the backup and the heavy post-production causes a slight robotic tone * #672. United are bringing the good times back, at least for now, with a comfortable victory over Crystal Palace. The visitors offered almost no effort, giving Erik ten Hag the opportunity to rotate the squad and give important minutes to returning players. Ed & Tom discuss.

#670. United crash in the Champions League and despite the closeness of the score, Erik ten Hag's side was never really in it. There's plenty for Ed & Wayne to discuss - Andre Onana's howler, Casemiro's age, United's mental fragility. Dearie me.

#659. United are three points better off than at this point last season - and that's about the most positive thing that can be said about the performance in beating Wolves 1-0 at Old Trafford. This was not Ten Hag's side anywhere near its best. But is there something still missing that could be fixed in the last two weeks of the transfer window? Ed & Dan look back on the game and think about where the United manager may still want reinforcements.
