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?

This would kill the scousers seeing it
half time unveiling on the pitch, please.
That's probably what they are aiming for
Perfect opportunity for an enterprising scouse thief to turn his home in Brighton over one last time.
I bet the FA would step in to stop Chelsea doing this.
Love it
We’re not willing to match what Southampton want for Lavia so we weren’t getting him either way.
i reckon they’re way too hetero to be seen anywhere near brighton. the lads wouldn’t let them back in the feathers for a carling if they knew they’d been down in bum town.
depends if klopp okays it imo.
Yeah their pain would be utterly glorious
I'm preparing the hall and cake for my wedding to [insert model name here]. This will be killing all you cnuts.
More than Bellingham…
I can taste scouser tears through the internet.
Even you don’t believe what you type. Not sure who you think you’re convincing. Saying less would show more indifference.
Absolutely laughable fee. Chelsea outdoing themselves.
So, you're going into the season with two new midfielders and a crock, and i'm not convienced you believe you defense is all that. It looked pretty done in preseason
Think bigger : Half time unveiling with Caicedo announcing which team he chooses. The Decision 2.
He'd do scousers a favor by not joining them. Skill is undeniable but he's not prime Zidane and comes with a baggage carrying the attitude and professionalism of Pogba.
One saving grace for the Scouse is that they play Chelsea in London when they are probably at their lowest. I bet some of their first team players don't even know the full names of all the squad players. Chelsea will definitely be a very strong side by the end of the year, injuries permitting.
That's funny, I'm sure you're really chilled about not having a DM with the season started, having shown all your cards, no Liverpool fan has ever given Utd barrels of stick about doing similar. Definitely.
As a Liverpool fan how can you possibly think you have other areas that need strengthening more than midfield. You’ve currently got Curtis Jones as your CDM option ffs.
Not sure who you’re trying to kid to suggest you’re not desperate for Caicedo. Liverpool’s £110m bid suggests differently.
Dont think the FA can really veto that surely? As long as the deal is done paperwork wise Chelsea could parachute him in to the stadium if they wanted to.
I said we're finishing second way before the Moises chat started. So yeah I'm chilled.
I’d imagine they could advise them not to on the basis it could incite the away crowd and Chelsea would be in trouble if they ignored it and there was trouble off the back of it.
That part doesn't make sense to me. I guess you have a valuation on Lavia, but what's the point of trying to save 5 million there and then spend 110 on Caicedo?
Actually forget Caicedo and the 110. If you identify Lavia as the midfielder to get (which you clearly need, ie a midfielder) why haggle over 5 million with the season about to start?
Yep. Nothing desperate about a 110m£ bid.
I don’t know tbh. It’s odd to me as well. This wouldn’t have happened when Edwards was at the club. Nothing against who is in that position now but Edwards had transfers working fairly smoothly without things like this happening.
We also need a CB. When (not if) Konate gets injured, Gomez and Matip will struggle with TAA wondering into midfield. The signs were there from pre season.
But a DM should be priority.
Simply outrageous, all of this. Half-time unveiling would be devastating!
Sure. Good luck with that.
I was actually hoping they would wake up because I don’t know that I want Lavia.
What’s really funny is gonna be the look on peoples faces if we actually sell Kepa, Gallagher, and Chalobah and Chelsea shows a net profit from this window with how they have it structured.

I don't understand why they didn't try their hand at getting Kane if they had this kind of money to spend. Seems odd not going for a position that was a significant problem for them last season.
Haven't they signed like a million midfielders since Boehly took over already?
Haven't they signed like a million midfielders since Boehly took over already?
Spurs wouldnt sell Kane to Chelsea.
Kane wouldn't join Chelsea.
A total non-starter of a transfer.
Hasn’t he got a thigh injury? How do you pass a medical with a current injury?
Does Todd just want to win the transfer windows? At least the likes of this and Rice are taking the limelight off of Hojlund in terms of mega money purchases and the immediate performances following it.
He better be worth it or that is a hell of a lot of money for someone who has one good season.
You moved on from Lavia because you stick rigidly to valuations and you don't desperately need a midfielder anyway, but just conjured £111 million from somewhere to make a British transfer record-breaking bid for Caicedo.
Try harder.
Insane spending by Chelsea. Where's FFP?
It's all right. We all believe you.
Should have gone all out for Osimhen if you have that much money to spend.
