In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.

I have a feeling that he won’t make it at United. Hope I’m completely wrong.
Think he has as good of a chance as anybody. He is a very promising player.
And another one, great pass.
Pedro- left foot, right foot. He’s going to be the breakout star of the division if he can stay fit
Harvey Elliot, feel like I hadn’t heard that name in ages but he’s still only bloody 17.

Had a very good game tonight by all accounts
Looks like he's taken to this level like a duck to water, not really surprising.
I'm glad we've started utilising the loan system, so much better than sitting there playing reserve football twice a month.

Garner's pass to Sarr was perfect. Unfortunately, his first touch didn't set himself for the short.

Top talent. Technically he's a sublime midfielder
He MUST learn to exert himself in games though.
Lets hope he can develop a lot in this loan spell..

He looks class, he'll make it at PL level even if it's not at United.
If he's making it at PL level then he'd be a good bench option for us at the very least
95% pass accuracy with 2/3 of them being forward passing is examplary
Anyone watching the Watford game? Some really really good football bring played by both teams.
Garner will learn a lot from playing in this set up, really good to see

Those are Carrick stats. Very impressive.
Pretty anonymous 45 other than the booking, doesn't impose himself on the game & looks lost half the time. No doubt he has great passing and technique for sure but he looks afraid to me.
I think anyone expecting a young lad to come in and start dictating play in centre mid role is a bit deluded.
He is obviously getting to grips with first team football, living in London, getting used to new team mates and manager. Of course he's going to have games where he struggles to make an impact. It's all part of the development and will help him in the long run.
Given comp for places at utd, there are no guarantees for any young player to breakthrough. This is a patience game but I think Garner has the potential, he just has to fulfil it.

I worry about his mentality to be honest. For all his talent he seems gun shy when I’ve seen him playing senior football.
How has he been doing the last few weeks? Seems to be playing a lot.
Started pretty well but apparently been shit for a while now.
2 weeks ago Watford fans claimed he was their best midfielder and a set piece specialist.
1 week ago he was terrible and out of his depth and it was a disgrace he was taking set pieces.
Thanks!
So basically they're like us and players are only as good as their last game.

What a shame - it started so well too.
A good debut at Forest on his second loan

Bootiful pass
I was hoping to gain some insight from Forest fans on him by looking through Twitter, but literally any tweet from Forests account regarding Garner is inundated with Utd fans asking “how good is he” over and over again like some annoying 10 year old.
And I’m fairly sure they’re hijacking the Forest MOTM votes too in favour of Garner.

Twitter is the worst place for that kind of insight. Try the Forest forum.
You won't BELIEVE what Garner did! Click BELOW for EVERY TOUCH!
That's filthy. Pure Pogba that is.

Starts against Bournemouth.
Is it fair to say that the team could really do with a player of Garner’s style? We’ve not managed to replace Carrick yet (Matic was okay for a couple of years).
Up against Ben Pearson. That could be tasty
