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?
To be fair Shaw did score in the first game of the season, albeit his first Premier League goal.
yeah because he had time for that ffs. He literally was at full stretch trying to get that and it was coming through traffic.
Exactly. Should never have been a pro.
1-2

Geordies, always a glamorous bunch.
Their next game is Man City. At least they are well prepared nowYeah I know. They could have done it all along, they just didn't want to show of.
Bit of a wierd point to make when Shaw scored a few games ago
And got an assist against Brighton..
It doesn’t matter if Alonso fell over following the tackle because Schar won the ball first. You don’t have to clearly dispossess the attacker for it to be a clean tackle.
They could both room together.
Knew the karma would get me as soon as I quoted youWhose getting relegated this season? Way too many boring shithouse teams in the league this season - Newcastle, West Ham, Cardiff, Huddersfield, Southampton, Brighton, Burnley.
Yes you do
As the commentator said he panicked. Could’ve at least got some sort of connection rather than flailing his limp foot at it.
Chelsea will be deserved winners. Neither of the first goals should probably have been scored so...
Barkley would have had a tap in if Yedlin didnt attempt to cut it out.
Nah, in one motion he played the ball followed by flooring Alonso. After playing the ball there’s nothing he could’ve done to avoid downing Alonso, therefore I’d say it’s not a pen.
He ran into his elbow.Usually, I’d agree, but Yedlin elbowed him right in the jaw
Chelsea win 2-1!
Sweet win
Nobody is outrunning Yedlin in the open field.
Dear God, Sarri really is cockteasing cancer isn't he?
Yuk. Horrible game, glad to get the 3 points.
This is another proof that VAR is important
Indeed. It would've ruled out their goal and we'd have won 2-0.
Look up the laws of the game. Might be you're right but i've heard it explained several times by pundits and even a former ref and the rule says you have to win the ball aka take away from the attacker's availability. If you don't and you take him out it's a foul.
Chelsea to win the league. As is usual with a new manager on board.
Crap game but that last corner saved my bet!
This is my understanding of the rule too, it's a fair challenge. Whether Alonso or another player then gets tripped by a player on the floor isn't relevant.
Or at least i think it isn't...
It also would have ruled out your first goal, as it wasn't a penalty. At 0-0, anything could have still happened.
The vote was before the WC and based off the FA Cup disasters from last season so its understandable that the majority were against it in fairness.
Nah. Stonewall pen all day everyday.
Clattenberg in the nbc studio
We'll see.
I don't know how Newcastle can survive this season. They do look very weak in every part of the field. Rafa has to pull out a miracle.
This, that elbow, ffs. Refereeing in the premier league is the worst in Europe, yet no var... Newcastle away a tough one for us usually, delighted with 3 wins from those fixtures, we've been lucky at times. Showed character and hunger for the points today.
What are you all smoking? It was a clear penalty
The case for VAR grows every game. So many wrong decisions.
Others teams are even worse... that is the only way really. So many poor sides in the bottom 14, will need 100 points for the title and 80 odd for top 4 this season imo.
