Man Utd salvage point and perhaps Ten Hag’s job too

Where do you even start with Manchester United? Two nil up, three two down and then Harry Maguire scores possibly the most important header of Erik Ten Hag’s career. Is it a good result or a bad result? Does this intensify the pressure or relieve it? Does anyone know anymore? Charlotte Harpur was in Porto, she joins us to explain what just happened. 

By contrast, Spurs had a far easier night and Jay Harris is here to tell us which of their young players caught the eye. And Simon Johnson was watching Chelsea, seeing if they can do stuff without Cole Palmer. And indeed they can. 

Plus, we’ve got all the scores from the big games, some of the scores from the small games and some stuff on Inter Miami too. 

Need something to read? Liam Twomey and Dan Sheldon have been speaking to the people who know Cole Palmer best to ask the entirely reasonable question, “Did anyone expect him to be this good?”

Need something to listen to? The TIFO Podcast is back in its original form, it’s sort of like Monty Python meets Match of the Day and it is, according to recent reviews, the second best podcast on our network. Behind us. Obviously.
