In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?

His 20th birthday was last month....
The potential is outrageous here. Finally seeing what we were waiting for, and boy was it worth it.

What I loved to see he was in the attack so often, drifted inwards a lot, near their box, and was active all game.
In terms of being complete in his role, is he currently our best player?
I'm so fecking pleased that everyone is seeing what this lad is capable of now 
Narrowly behind Smalling as our best player these first 5 games. Darmian narrowly behind Luke.
Only just turned 20 too. Madness.
Very happy we "overpaid" for this lovable player (unlike with Hazard when we refused to pay over the odds).
Sky is the limit for him, already top class when in form I dare to say

Possibly my favourite moment of the game. Cuts off a counter attack with a great interception, races forward to support his winger and then after the cross is cleared he races back at lightning speed to steal the ball and start it all over again...when we're 6-1 up. Gotta love that.
Fantastic clip. Not even going at full speed either.
I know the "Beast Mode" gimmick is Smalling's but Shaw is right there with him, he just devours the ground in front of him when he drives with the ball.
We suddenly have two of the best fullbacks in the league. How cool is that? In the words of LvG, "it's the year of Luke Shaw" indeed.
His improvement from last season has been astronomical. Not that he was awful by any means last season, but this season he looks a completely different player. He's physically dominant, attacks with purpose, and hardly ever seems to get beaten defensively.
I think a lot of it probably comes down to feeling more comfortable off the pitch in Manchester. It's sometimes overlooked how difficult it can be, particularly for young players, to up-sticks and move to a different city. He's also looking physically fitter than last year, which is undoubtedly playing its part in his impressive performances...

He's a fecking monster, such an immense player. How the hell is he only 20 years old?
Easily my favorite player in the team.

He was a beast last night. We're finally starting to see why the club forked out 30 odd million for a then 18 year old. Immense talent.
Arguably the best United player on the pitch in every game so far this season. Which is absolutely ridiculous for a left back who's barely out of his teens. His strength and pace are the most obvious assets but he's got unbelievable balance too. Just an amazing athlete.
When's he's allowed to break and run at pace he's breathtaking to watch.
Yeah and he can develop a lot physically once he sheds the baby fat and adds some considerable muscle.
I keep hearing the fat jokes but I don't see no fat on him.
People are equating stocky with fat I think
There was baulking at the price we paid but I never saw it as a risk. Even last year when he had fitness and injury niggles you could tell he was going to be important for us.
You could say that for Darmian and Smalling as well though. Even Blind. Our back 4 has been impeccable this season.
Glad he's ours.
Agreed, one of few, if not the only shining light so far this season.
Definitely not "only".
He has a massive arse, but that's really it.
wondering if the guys who think that Shaw is fat also think Depay is fat fecker..
Don't get 'em started on Valencia...
People are actually fecking stupid.
Opposition fans only started with this after LVG said something about him not being fit..of course, they will run with this for the next decade..they are stupid, ignore them..
It doesn't bother me that much, just trying to understand the origin of some jokes. Just like Lampard used to be called fat when he was one of the best CMs in England.
Yes, it originated from those LVG comments..such is the originality of some people
Outstanding......Delighted for him.
Don't try and blame it on opposition fans, there were loads on here who spouted the same bollocks. No surprise there though.
This. Some stupid stuff was said about his ability as well.
He was pure class vs Chelsea at the bridge last season. He's looked pretty much at that level all of this season so far. Long may it continue.
Dare I say, he is the player doing his job the best in our squad.
If he can add in some quality in the final 3rd he'll be best LB in the world.
I lost count how many times I defended him on the caf last season. Utterly bizarre.
