Episode 2314: Liverpool End Man Utd, Maguire’s Defence Of Maguire, Ralf’s First Love, Limerick Crush Cork

No one held out much hope for Man United before their match at Anfield but today Ken questions why he thought Ralf Rangnick’s side might give Liverpool a game…. and it seems he may be a victim of Sky Sports Gold.

As bad as it was on the pitch, United fans will be even more disheartened by Harry Maguire’s defence of his own form and by Rangnick’s love for the Liverpool masterplan.

? “I wouldn’t be playing every game for Manchester United in the starting eleven if I’d been playing bad every game. There’s a reason why both managers have put me in the starting eleven every game.”

We also have Jamie Wall and Malachy Clerkin on today to chat about the weekend’s hurling. Cork, like virtually everyone else, looked poorly-coached compared to Limerick and the genius of Paul Kinnerk, Galway did what Jamie has always known Galway to do, Waterford shook off a post-league final hangover with no damage done, and Tipperary now find themselves a loss to Clare away from disaster.
