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?

Who didn't get it out of interest?Amazing that so many people aren't understanding the joke here
A dark day for our beloved Manchester United football club. A **** figure and a player with a rich history with us who is contractually obligated dragging the manager, our club our legends into the mud infront of the whole world.
You seem to have thinner skin than Ronaldo
.My point was solely to do with the fact people in this thread and the United forum will be pissed off at Ronaldo and rightfully so.
Coming in and trying to apply some balance was never going to work.
Horrible interview.
Always worth noting he's not a native speaker - and you can tell he struggled at times with his english here - I suspect some things won't come across the way he intended, and I have a feeling the Rooney rat thing will be one of those since I've seen quotes about his kid playing at Rooney's house. It's his damage for even doing this though.

I guess me. I am completely lost now. Must learn English better or English sense for humor. Something i miss for sure in all this
Doesn't seem so
It's not really though. At best, he heavily implied Rooney is a rat, after heavily implying Rooney is ugly and jealous yesterday. That's a weird-ass thing to say publically about your former teammate, especially whilst employed by the club where Rooney is top scorer and a legend.
I believe Ronaldo is a narcissist who hasn't really considered that his interview won't be well received by the Old Trafford faithful. He probably believes that there will be interest in him from other top clubs, because he has an inability to accept criticism, and he looks at himself as the best, and he can't conceive that there genuinely isn't interest in signing him. Hence, burning bridges with the club will have no negative impact on him in his mind.
With that said, who the feck knows. Maybe it will work out for him, maybe it will backfire spectacularly. Time will tell.
Why? The caf has never been more lively on a non footballing week. You've been posting in this thread like a match day, you love it
He’s not putting Rooney in that group. It’s too late and I’m done trying to explain..Why are people trying to flip everything he is saying like it's ok and he actually meant something else, it's actually bonkers to read.
of all the shite he has said, it's weird to literally now be pretending to pretend he didn't mean to call Rooney a rat and he holds him in higher regard, after already displaying clear dislike for him already. The mental gymnastics
He said rats. Calling your former teammate a rat in front of millions. If there are people here still defending him or his words they really ought to be banned.
After already criticising his looks and career, it's not that much of a jump to conclude he meant what he said exactly how most of us have interpreted it except for the usual suspects of course.Why are people trying to flip everything he is saying like it's ok and he actually meant something else, it's actually bonkers to read.

fecking hell lad, it's not that bad. Losing 4-0 to Brentford or the annual spanking by City are much worse than this, and I wouldn't even call those "dark days".
Ronaldo has always been a Winker
A part of me wants him to have one more game, Burnley in the cup, just so the crowd can chant Rooney's name at him for 90 minutes.
Probably thinks it’s an even better idea. There’s no point in arguing with them.
I was being half serious regarding the manager. If we’re really going to forgive Ronaldo and reincorporate him into the squad for the rest of the year, there’s no point in ETH hanging around. We don’t want to lose him (I hope!) so a sabbatical seems the only way.
Also does this not group Neville in with the rats as someone who dared criticise him....
I wonder which team in the world is going to touch him after this. He is finished at the top level and this narcissistic behaviour will even scare off 2nd tier team. No top team will need him anyway
Agree with you. We all knew it from that insane physique he has. That's not just being super fit, that's disco muscles for vanity. Maybe he'll become a body builder when he retires, that could work!!
We can enjoy the world cup and watch with interest what happens. I just hope the club have some ideas about a striker coming in, as we'd be one injury to wafer thin Martial away from real difficulties.
Old Trafford needs a Rooney song based on his new rat identity and also the fact that he is an actual club legend.
There is no way to prove that I know but I really believe Ronaldinho’s 5 peak years would have seen us win the whole lot. We would have beaten Porto easily and win the CL in 2004 not to mention he would have torched the defences and obliterated the league on his own.
He’s basically just having a winge about not getting picked every game isn’t he?
Is
Yes, yes it absolutely is.
the greatest method yet of getting around the “insult the post, not the poster” rule?
Yes, yes it absolutely is.
Are there any more parts of this madness or this was the last part?
What makes you think that I have thin skin?You seem to have thinner skin than Ronaldo

You quoted me and started the interaction, calling the site moderaton pathetic. I can't say I really noticed you so had a quick scan. There is one admin note on your profile saying you are quite childish and lots of your posts are hostile to the boards, so I just ask why post here?
Yup.
Depends on how low he will go with his salary. There are always Italian clubs looking for cheap deals.
Anyway, who else thinks Rooney is a rat?
It's just Ronaldo
Blame Kenyon. Ronaldinho became the best player in the world not soon after. But heh, we got two great seasons out of CR37 and...well....provided Real with a great player. We're so nice.

This actually crossed my mind..
Football doesn't work that way mate.
Take Shearer v Solskjaer. The former a much better player, but if we'd signed him instead, do we win the treble in 99? Most likely not, as he'd start over one of Cole or Yorke, and it changes the whole dynamic.
Aside from anything else, the whole “I had offers but I didn’t leave because I was happy and motivated to have a good season” is just a hilarious outright lie… He very clearly briefed that he wanted out. And he could’ve easily quashed those rumours if he wanted… he even replied to a post to say he wasn’t going to Sporting.
Its just quite sad
Its just quite sad
This place will a lot better when the waxy ,CGI looking robot has been fvcked off and his sycophants go with him..they’re even worse cvnts than he is
Erm half the forum when he tried to leave those times?
Still need to sack him/sell him in the next few weeks based on the basic principle of if you talk shit about the people who pay you regardless of whether you’re a high level footballer or some office worker in a widely public domain, you get let go.
Doesnt matter if you say you like the colleagues you work with and you’re completely right about the owners are terrible, pensions benefits suck etc, you’re still heading out that door carrying a box of your belongings.

He wants out. No one wants him, And he is making sure that the situation is so bad that club will just throw him out (while compensating with his last big paycheck) a.k.a "Jose playbook"
Yep, but done in possibly the most ludicrous manner possible.
Why is Rooney a rat and Di Maria a snake?Erm half the forum when he tried to leave those times?
A rat…a rat…a rat, a rat, a rat.
