In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
Talented and so modest?
You only call him a beast because he's black. Racist.
Nah, I mean that's impressive on its own right but not the same as football. ACL is different to a broken leg, for example. You regain muscle strength relatively fast and can do most ordinary motions (walking, jogging, jumping, sprinting) just after a couple of months but it takes time for the ligaments to strengthen properly and you can't really "feel" that. Very easy to get injured again if you don't take your time.
Excellent news, like a new signing who will be ready for the most busy part of the year. If he'll be all right with being Lukaku backup what a backup that would be. Imagine us having a bad game, Lukaku cant get a goal and Zlatan steps in.
Excellent news. Zlatan as a bench/ rotation option makes us very strong up front. And what a presence to have around the club should we make a title bid.
Great move! Looking forward to us integrating him back into the team in 3 months.
'6'5" hard as f-k, he gets the reds excited...'
Ah that's good thanks for explaining it. We're in a great position to not have him rush back, though it would be great to have him available for the Christmas blitz of games.
We don't need Zlatan the player, we need Zlatan the man. That's what's important.
Thank you for signing us again big Z!!!
But can he play centre half?
This is great news. Looking at him kicking that punchbag the other day, I expect him to make a return before Christmas and I'm sure he'll play more than just a backup role. He's a great alternative to Lukaku, a brilliant bench option and can only be a good influence on Rashford and Martial. I fear for us without Matic (should the situation arise), but I can't see any areas where we are desperate for improvement now.
Fantastic! Really happy with this.

I should work for United's Twitter team.

We should have a option for a third year
It's #Zla10 and they're all over it
Yep, although it came from his agent so take it with a pinch of salt.
The guy who did his surgery is one the of top ACL specialist in the world so it's not outrageous.
"Come on" what?
Not going to happen.
Zlatan will play some games, 15 to 20 totally, of course not all as a starter and we will surely need him when having in mind the amount of games we will have to play - Whatever Cup (i.e. League Cup which name don't wanna try to remember again), FA Cup, PL and CL
Love Zlatan and it shows his total class - not gonna go somewhere just to be a starter and earn cash, wanna be oozing it till the end and benefiting at the greatest stage.

Quadruple lad, Quadruple!!

Eh?It's #Zlan10 and they're all over it
The issue for Zlatan last year (not that he had many issues, fabulous player) was that he played too many games.
I can't understand why he isn't more appreciated by United fans (or at least certain sections of our support).

This was always going to happen. It's great that it's happened and who knows? Playing in a young developing team may see him play on at the top for a few years yet. Rashford and co will learn a lot and they have the time between now and his return to work even harder. I don't think he'll slow us down at all. I just think playing deeper will suit him more. We'll probably do no more business so looking at the squad we need to keep up this momentum we've built and that will help us in Europe too over time. It's a pity we don't have Patrice in this squad but it will be interesting to see Zlatan in an improved team. Knock on wood
Great news
Yes, I think Mourinho might actually kill Lukaku once Zlatan is back. Like literally murder him. He hates under 25 players!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Play him as our number 10, move Mkhi to the right, and watch the goals fly in.
Glad to hear it. At a club like ours we need top class competition in all places. It doesn't get any better than Zlatan.
The hashtag the club are going with is #Zla10
Good news as it's always important to have proper depth, but is he still on the same, exuberant, wages as last season? Wasn't he on something like over £350,000 a week, making him the highest paid Premier League player?
Can't believe we would offer him a new contract with same wages and can't believe we would pay twice what Pogba earns to a man who's coming off a dramatic injury and probably won't be in our starting eleven.

He has just tweeted himself as a celestial football lord so he understands.Treble this season !
I'm gonna blame my phone.
I'm just looking forward to him flattening someone in his first game back.
He knows!
