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?
I was just watching that. Bizarre comments from Macari.
Think he threw it into the crowd as did Pereira later which is kinda the norm these days.
Pogba started for United during his last season, he wasn't left out of the team.
A shirt he apparently gave to a fan who asked for it, he never triggered those idiots
You said 16 PL starts. He appeared in 3 league matches.
He gave it to a kid.
Lou Macari does not represent me.
what about rahsford lingard? and especially young jones smalling matic lukkau and sanchez? all should be given ''abuse'' more then pogba
I was quoting your claim Pogba made 16 PL starts in his last season as a 19 year old?!
The others were not abused. Being singled out to me is scapegoating

This sort of thing is one of the biggest reasons he pissed fans off. You can show me all the km/90 stats you want but when CMs can’t be arsed tracking runners like this it will obviously wind matchgoing fans up.
Wow MUTV has changed since I last watched it, guess not even the club channel can polish the turn that is Manchester United these days
I had a mare.
Are you the old guy in the video by any chance? You can literally see the other players there with him so what you’re saying makes no sense. If he ran away without saying anything, you’d be claiming he’s a coward and won’t look the people who pay his wages in the eye.

Just no.
touchéDon’t be dumb. You know exactly what I mean.
Wow, reading the comments below that 'Tweet' just shows how retarded the human race has become! I'm glad I was born in the 80's!
People like this spin their own narratives no matter what they see in front of them
Fair enough. That showed me.
Pogba is deluded if he didn’t expect stick after such a shit performance & a horrible year overall for the club. Other than making their feelings known via the pocketbook, giving verbal stick to the players is perhaps the only way to really be heard by them. If Pogba was to believe that he would get a standing ovation or sympathy, he is living in even more of a bubble than I thought.
Yes, he was the leader in goals & assists this season, but we also were shit as a team. He gets his goals & assists bonus £ because he plays professional football. Also as a professional footballer, getting stick from supporters is part of the game.
If he is in a state of shock now, good luck in the Bernabeu.
They didn’t abuse him because we would have seen it and plus why should they abuse Herrera he’s been a good servant.
My point is we are talking about an interview months back. Everytime the guy has an average game he’s the villain. He was the villain at the middle of the season been caused a virus. We have allowed the media to decide Pogba’s fate.
12 were penalties. Take them off him and give them to anyone else and those stats look awful.
Pogba tunred up for 10 weeks of the season. He's the one player we look for to give us some momentum and most games he's been awful.
It's embarrassing how our fans are sticking up for him. His attitude stinks. Jose was bang on the money.
Bernabeu ain't run by stupid clueless people. May be zidane likes him but there ain't no way Madrid is coming and getting him for the price. They are way smarter now than our pathetic board.
I agree. He lacks agility and acceleration so he’s often caught behind. That said, Matic and Mctominay are of similar build and cover more distance.
I don’t see a better metric than distance covered per 90 in all honestly.
Eriksen has actually played slightly more minutes this season across all comps, 4036 to 4012 and B Silva has played 3935.
Compared to the rest of our team
Herrera covered 11.7km per 90. Matic 11.5km. Fred 11.74. Mctominay 11.76.
Matic and Mctominay are tall and slim like Pogba too. Compared to Dacoure at Watford, another player of similar build, he covers 11.61km per game and has more minutes in the PL although less overall. Even compared to Eric Dier who is 6ft 2in and what I would consider as cumbersome he comes up short against 11.41km.
I don’t know the full data but I’d guess he’s at the lower end of distance covered for a midfielder per 90

Even if you take the penalty out, the stats are very good for a midfielder.
Nothing spectacular. Ryan Fraser probably has better if you take his pens away. This is a £90m footballer we're talking about.
Speaking about discipline didn't lou played at a time when players used to turn to training drunk? Also wtf has this guy ever won? Some Scottish league titles? A second division title? The FA Cup? He is speaking about a guy who won titles at a top league and the WC. I'd expect the likes of scholes criticising pogba but lou?
I seen another video of this, basically 2 fans throwing f bombs and all sorts at Pogba while he stood there kinda shrugging his shoulders.
I get we as fans are frustrated and he's grossly overpaid but still didn't feel right.

There’s plenty on here that have turned on Hererra but the match going fans tend to be different. I guess it depends on if you think Pogba is an innocent actor in all the noise around him. Pogba has been my absolute favourite player for a while but I have become very sceptical he is an entirely innocent party in the Madrid saga. I do believe he’s agitating for a move and the way in which it was done, in part, undermined our run in.
I've seen worse defending from our defenders.
The nerve of the arrogant bastard!
Ozil has done that too. He has won titles in a team where his weight was carried around by others and that team still wins titles without him so its an indication of how much really was his contributions in those titles.
World cup was one competition where he was focussed as if he didn't he would be nationally abused by the fans and there could be many men ready to replace him if he didn't turn up as manager wanted him to be. Also world cup ain't the same level of football compared to high level leagues and champions league.
He's our top goal scorer and top assist man.
Yep he's the problem

Enjoy the likes of Young, Smalling, Phil jones and Lingard in the team next year.
Have they done it before?
We used to use stats of Rooney to excuse him playing despite his decline too.
