Laurie Whitwell, Carl Anka, Andy Mitten and host Ian Irving will bring you all the latest from Old Trafford as the team begin to bounce back from their worst finish in Premier League history.
The big change for the show this summer has been their foray onto YouTube, with video episodes and bespoke social content available on their dedicated channels.
'The biggest strength of Talk of the Devils is the level of insight,' Ian says.
'Between the lads, they are across everything that's happening at Old Trafford — in Andy's case, everything that has happened at Old Trafford for a very long time. There's a depth of knowledge and insight that you don't get anywhere else.
'It's easy to know who to ask what question; whether it be about the very latest transfer news, a tactical breakdown of what Ruben Amorim is preparing for the new season or how old the floodlights are at Blundell Park, where United will play Grimsby in the Carabao Cup this month. Tune in before the match in a couple of weeks to find out.
'We always hope that it's as much fun to watch and listen to as it is to make.'
After sold-out shows over the past few years, the quartet are going back on the road for a five-date tour of the UK and the Republic of Ireland later in 2025. To buy tickets to the live shows, click here.

Lokomotiv fans whistle Schalke's Antwi-Adjei after racist abuse warning in German Cup game
LEIPZIG, Germany (AP) — Schalke midfielder Christopher Antwi-Adjei was whistled by Lokomotiv Leipzig supporters after he appeared to complain that he was subjected to racist abuse during the teams' German Cup game on Sunday. Antwi-Adjei, who is Black, broke off play while taking a throw-in in the 13th minute, and subsequently spoke with a match official on the sideline. Referee Max Burda spoke to both captains while the first-round game was interrupted for around two minutes. The stadium announcer asked fans to refrain from using racist or discriminatory language. Antwi-Adjei was subsequently whistled whenever he received the ball. 'We couldn't verify it,' Lokomotiv spokesman Carsten Maschulle told Sky TV during halftime. 'We have a member of staff who uses a wheelchair who was exactly or almost where the player was. He didn't hear anything. We asked around a bit, but no one heard anything. The linesman, who is obviously standing nearby during the throw-in, apparently didn't hear anything either. That's the current status.' Schalke won 1-0 with Bryan Lasme scoring the winner in extra time. Schalke plays in the second division while Lokomotiv is at fourth-tier level after narrowly missing out on promotion last season. ___ AP soccer:

Newcastle signs Jacob Ramsey from Aston Villa for reported $53M
NEWCASTLE, England (AP) — Newcastle bolstered its midfield options ahead of a return to the Champions League by signing midfielder Jacob Ramsey from Aston Villa for a reported $53 million on Sunday. The 24-year-old Ramsey, who came through Villa's academy and made 167 appearances for the club, is Newcastle's fourth signing of a transfer window where most of the focus has been on its star striker, Alexander Isak. Isak has been linked with a move to Liverpool. Newcastle has already signed winger Anthony Elanga, goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale and defender Malick Thiaw. 'This is a big move for me," Ramsey said, 'but as soon as I knew the gaffer (manager Eddie Howe) was interested and really liked me, it didn't take much time to decide. His track record of developing players, especially those who have gone on to become internationals here, speaks for itself.' Howe said Ramsey's 'qualities will bring us something different on the pitch.' 'He fits the profile of being young and hungry to develop, but also with a wealth of Premier League football under his belt,' Howe said. 'Jacob offers versatility and his directness in attack." ___ AP soccer:

Man United: Ruben Amorim explains Onana's absence against Arsenal
André Onana Before the Premier League showdown between Manchester United and Arsenal, Red Devils coach Ruben Amorim spoke out about André Onana's absence. This Sunday, André Onana is not in the Manchester United squad for their first big clash of the season against Arsenal in the Premier League. The Cameroonian goalkeeper was deemed not quite ready to return to action. Ahead of the encounter with the Gunners, Red Devils manager Ruben Amorim explained his decision to leave Onana out. "He's not injured, he's recovered… but the other players worked well during pre-season, so I have to find a balance. Next week, it'll be a different story. This week, we chose these players." the coach stated. A tactical decision, then.
