We look poor with the ball and without it. The man is shite. We are way too open regardless of injuries. Newcastle have been just as hit but they look a team better than us. We are very bad guys

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?
Can't be arsed with his drivel if we somehow squeak this 1-0.
Come out and say we were fecking shit and the players need to do better

Before they went down injured, we were trash.
Yes today but that wasnt the case in those other games. Those really were just pot shots. Today it is bad
If there was any justice we'd be 4-0 down here.
This is worse than Bournemouth 3-0. Worse than Ole's 4-1 vs Watford.

Varane getting injured is as certain in life as rain falling in Manchester. We should have prioritised a RCB in hindsight with a view to phasing him out and selling him this year.
We've been dominated by Brentford tonight more than the 4-0 at the start of his reign, which says it all about the 'progress' we've made under him.
That's just not true
Nah, can’t expect us to play any decent football with the Glazers in charge….
Brentford had 13 shots in that game. 24 in this.
8 corners in that game. 13 in this.
This is the biggest battering we've had since 7-0.
Of all the problems with United - RCB is not what I would have prioritised. I mean, are people even watching us play?
Horrendous performance
It is, though. In the 4-0 they had 33% possession, 7 shots on target, with a total of 1.73 xG.
Tonight they’ve had 48% possession, 25 shots, with an xG of 1.93.
Until this game I was ETH in, but the inability to fix the glaring problems with the shape here against relegation strugglers has changed my mind. This is an all time bad performance regardless of the scoreline. Two weeks to plan for it also. Unbelievably bad.
Fraud, absolute fraud
Those are arbitrary statistics. We played worse in that game than in this game.
Exactly
Absolute nonsense.
They hit the post 4 times and had double the amount of shots than last season. What do you mean its just not true?
Not in a million years
We had 15 shots and 67% possession in the 4-0. Wasted half a dozen good chances. They were just absolutely clinical.
This is the worst game we've played along with Liverpool 7-0 and Bournemouth 3-0. It's been utterly vile.
He’s utterly useless.
Brentford were so comfortable in that game they took their foot off the pedal.
And Potter?.One thing I know is that I'd rather keep ETH if Southgate is the other choice
We just got sucker punched a few times very early on very silly breaks. They’ve comprehensively outplayed us here tonight. I don’t know how you can refute this
We were incredibly shit also.Not in a million years

Not saying we aren't poor here but we were worse in that game.
Well I am.
Why not ? There could be other options out there we aren't aware of. Tonight is defo not a night for defending ETH
Then you clearly dont remember the game.
I do remember the game.
Martinez just ducking smashed it at Maguire. Wtf was that
Badly
Wrong threadMartinez just ducking smashed it at Maguire. Wtf was that
Because well all know how it ends, too nice and too placid to be a top manager.
Ok, that's the very slim chance of top 5 almost gone. It's the hope that kills you 
No, what you are experiencing is recency bias.
My bad. Although it could probably fall under management tactics these days
You're the one incorrectly rating the recent performance vs the old one.
Farcical thing to be arguing about anyway. ETH is a fraud and needs sacked, that's all that needs to be said in this thread from here on.
You're probably right tbh.
I was ETH in but how does one defend a performance like that to argue he should be here next season? I’m struggling.
I honestly fail to understand anyone still defending him. Absolutely mind boggling. I really want to hear one valid reason to keep him. A single one. There's absolutely nothing
