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 dont think this is a good perfomance at all
That's what @Sarni is saying.
It’s a horrible performance.
Aye, four wins in a row is unforgivable, SACK ERIK NOW!
Reminds me of Big Sam the way he has set us up to play.
That was shit, shit, shit. I know we won, we created loads of good chances but feck me… we dont know how to Control games
Didn't expect us to be outplayed by every single club when we hired him as a manager. Unreal how shit we are.
He is awful. Can only hope the new set up see's him for what he is and sends him packing in the summer.
While I was extremely critical of the first half, the 2nd half was so so so much better. Luton basically huffed and puffed 2nd half without much. Some criminal misses by us. Can't believe it didn't end 1-4 to us.
No need to be shameless. We won, but Luton dominated the game.
Performance wise, the main difference from earlier in the season is that we're now scoring from our early chances before we lose control of the match. Whereas before we'd fail to put them away and then lose control, concede, and lose.
Good results but yeah the performances are not cutting it.
Maybe we should hire De Zerbi as an assistant coach.

Much better half hour in the 2nd half where we had some level of control, didn't give up so many chances and should have put the game to bed with the chances on the break, the chances missed are not on him, and 4 wins on the trot is really promising but significant improvement is still needed.
Yeah second half much improved. Not sure whether it was us playing better or Luton simply running out of steam. We can’t be getting outplayed by Luton anyway.
I think you have to separate the two halves from us. Don't think Luton did much if anything 2nd half.
Another in the bag! At the end of the season he will be first choice to replace Xavi. Extend now! Love to see it.
Deserved to win the game but not at our best.
INEOS are definitely going to get rid.
Dominated? Come off it.
Really sorted it out at half time with the changes
11 shots and 57% possession... They shouldn't be getting 10 shots in the whole game FFS. They shouldn't even have 40% possession in the game. It's embarassing coaching.
Hopefully, because fecking hell.
59% possession, 100+ more passes
Keep him till the end of the season, then boot the baldy.
Hope the board are looking for alternatives.

Great. Just don't let him buy his own players. Ask what profile he wants and go from there
Funny a few weeks ago many were still trying to argue Ole was a better United manager.
I predicted then that within a few weeks and some players returning, he’d be matching Ole’s second best season’s points total, after already beating Ole’s best last season, and we’ve now reached that point.
That’s not saying this season is good enough, it aint, it’s just proof of how laughably shit Ole was.

Sitting back, conceding possession against a team in the bottom 5. Not sure what is the plan here.
The Amrabat substitution was 5 minutes too late for me.
Our players lack any kind of in game intelligence and repeat the same mistakes again & again. Not sure why this is not getting corrected on the training pitch.

Yep. Would be ridiculous going all out for the best people behind the scenes then accepting mediocrity on the pitch.
That was appalling today.
Chaos football.
I hate the way he has us playing.
The players barely look coached, in the way they screw up the basics.

Yeah - they spend what, £28million on that squad? It's really not a good look for us to struggle that badly when Antony cost 3x that.
Glad to see Mengi and Chong doing well there though.
You still have to acknowledge the improvement in 2nd half. The embarrassing part was first half. 2nd half was totally comfortable for us.
What is embarassing? Winning games?
The most shots Luton have had in a PL game.
Good win at a place where many teams have struggled.
Theres going to be a lot of talk about the number of shots they had:
Were any of those shots good chances?
if you score one or two of that big chances its 3-1, 4-1 and you would say we control the game.
I think people overrate shots as Onana didn't actually save that much. Will their xG even be that high?
Yes, first 10 minutes aside, they were in charge of the game. I do think we had the better chances to score though.
possession: 58% - 42%
passes: 518 (84% accuracy) - 387 (76% accuracy)
shots: 22 - 21
shots inside the box: 13 - 13
big chances: 1 - 4
corners: 8 - 6
free kicks: 20 - 7
counter-attacks: 0 - 5
While we've improved recently in terms of results and even performances, it's nothing revolutionary that would make you think ten Hag has turned it around. Still, this is better than where we were few months ago.
