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.

Didn't think it could possibly end this way after he rejoined us, but after both his performance and behaviour I'm just relieved.
i don’t think he’ll ever get an erection again.
Some good advice here. I know for sure it’s one of my biggest flaws. I can’t let things go. Not just on about football, other things as well. It’s something I need to learn to do. Anyway good riddance to him. No doubt he’ll be selling his stories to the highest bidder about how badly treated he was so I’m sure we’ll be hearing United getting slated by him a lot more.
Only option. Shame it all ended like this.
If we could have just got rid in the summer it would have been a good return even without trophies last season.
Let's hope we get a good replacement

Oh no!
Anyway...
Anyway...
Even if all that happens and he scores 15 goals in the World Cup, I’d never want him back.
It's likely that we paid him a penny but not the full worth of his contract.
If we've come to an agreement on a pay-off that's fine.
Obviously we'd have preferred that Ronaldo get nothing at all but there's no point cutting off our nose to spite our face by opting to go down a route that potentially risked an unpleasant legal battle. Paying up entirely would be terribly wrong but there is value in getting the poison out of the club as quickly and painlessly as possible via settlement and moving on.

He could have first mutually terminate the contract and then gave that interview. Anyway. Move on.
Very happy with this outcome. Good luck to him, he is going to need it.

Exactly
He was the worst player on the pitch in the 2 EL games vs Omonoia.He’s not making the difference for Bayern in the latter stages of the CL
Not that they’d want him anyway.
Remember when Gullit benched Shearer? He lasted about 3 games more!
The ego has left the building.
They probably made him sign something where he can't join any premier league rivals. Makes no sense to let him leave if he can join teams we're competing against.
Yep live long enough to be the villain... and all that jazz.
Pressure is really on him to deliver in this tournament. He's playing for his career (in terms of staying in the CL) with the world spotlight on him.
For a narcissist, this is the greatest opportunity, or a complete and utter way to crash and burn.

Happy this is over! great for the Club, if in his interview he didn't mention Ten Hag and the respect issues, he would have left as a true legend of the club, but to throw fire while we try to rebuild is just a shame.
I did not see that last sentence coming.Good for you guys.
Sad ending but good riddance.
Brilliant result, get away from having to pay him. Now he can play UCL on the cheap for anyone he wants, and we're free of the drama.
Way to ruin your legacy, idiot.

Rio Ferdinands going to be in tears in the BBC studio
Should never have signed him again..but also we'd still be with Solksjaer otherwise. Anyways..feck off
Good for both parties. Shame it had to end this way but you cannot act that way and suffer no consequences. Ten Hag will be very happy too.

Ya this season won’t win anything but who cares. What he would do for the league and club is astronomical. He would not earn what he’s earning now either. It would be a beautiful end to a brilliant career
Well done the club.
Much more decisive these days. Things are definitely changing for the better.

I'm so glad its over with and fairly quickly. Now to plan for the January window, we must sign someone.
Shame it ended this way. Best for all concerned.
Great news and glad the club didn’t wait too long with the decision.
Now just force his lunatic set of fans (esp the one with the cp96 in his username) to post in one thread only, that'll be dedicated to foaming over his shitty geriatric displays.
Good riddance.
Good riddance.
You cannot seriously believe we've not paid something towards it.
It's what we do!
Dont write him off so easilyHe was the worst player on the pitch in the 2 EL games vs Omonoia.He’s not making the difference for Bayern in the latter stages of the CL
Not that they’d want him anyway.
Was good last season, out scoring a host of quality strikers in the PL. He’s been unsettled and wanted to leave in the summer, it’s no real surprise that he’s not been at it for us this year.
Im putting money on Ronaldo doing well in a side that creates chances
Can‘t wait for his 3rd stint at United in 3-4 years
Happy. He's finished at top level but his ego couldn't handle it
We move, please get in a striker that'll truly make us forget this absolute disaster
